It’s a race against the clock for Captain Sig Hansen in the upcoming episode of Deadliest Catch as he attempts to find crab in Norway. In an exclusive clip from the May 24th installment, the veteran crabber is taking a gamble in hopes of finishing his tasks as soon as possible to return home for the birth of his granddaughter. Dropping anchor in the northernmost reaches of Norway, Sig and his team are searching for Red King Crab. (Credit: Discovery) The crabs offer the captain a temptingly lucrative business, but it’s a risky one too because catching the invasive species is an unpredictable endeavor. In the clip, above, Sig oversees his crew from the bridge as they pull up traps from the deep. “We’re on the Russian border,” Sig explains to the cameras, “I gotta assume they’re just coming right across the border, that’s my gut feeling right now.

Start a conversation with Todd Rundgren about his sudden wealth of needle drops within the last 10 months — including the multiple interpretations of his 1973 hit “Hello It’s Me” as performed throughout the first season of HBO Max’s “And Just Like That…,” or the use of “I Saw the Light” in “Ozark” — and before the question is out, Rundgren is laughing.

“I find it as unusual as everyone else does,” says Rundgren from Denver, before another night of playing with friend Daryl Hall during that latter’s current solo tour. “I can’t figure out what’s going on, as

Andrea Brooks and Marcus Rosner star in Hallmark Channel‘s latest original movie Romance to the Rescue. Premiering Saturday, May 21, the movie tells the sweet love story of two emotionally closed-off people who, through the help of an adorable rescue dog named Sam, learn to open up. Ahead of the premiere, Brooks (When Calls the Heart) and Rosner (Christmas with a Crown) chatted with TV Insider about their latest foray into Hallmark love stories, sharing how the rescue dog aspect set it apart from their other Hallmark projects. Brooks’ Kyra is a “Pretty bold, type-a personality. She’s very career-oriented.” She makes all of her choices based on a strict life plan that includes being hired as a shopper for a grocery store and finding the perfect partner. But with so much rigidity in her life — put in place because of difficult family experiences — Kyra’s romantic plan doesn’t truly involve much romance.

Victor (Michael Cimino) just wants to start over — just as the end is near.

The third and final season of “Love, Victor” premieres June 15 on Hulu and, this time, also on Disney+ as the streamer expands its older-skewing offerings. Season 2 left off with Victor’s love triangle heating up between his first love Benji (George Sear) and new student Rahim (Anthony Kevyan), who recently came out to his Muslim family after receiving advice from Victor.

As graduation looms and Victor tries to determine who he wants to (re)start a relationship with, the high school senior hopes to just “go back to that perfect moment” of falling in love for the first time.

“A lot of the time, the scariest things are also the most important, like admitting who you love or who you are,” Victor says in the trailer.

The eight-episode final season is based on the “Love, Simon

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Season 3, Episode 4 of Barry, “all the sauces.”] HBO‘s award-winning dramedy Barry is bleaker than ever in Season 3, but the series is also hitting some of its highest comedy notes yet. A lot of that is thanks to the persistent hopefulness and sweet optimism of Chechen mobster NoHo Hank (Anthony Carrigan). The fan-favorite character — who was too funny to be killed off in the pilot episode as planned — continually charms viewers with his hilarious pop culture references and his endearing attitude toward sometimes-pal and assassin Barry (star and creator Bill Hader). “It’s always really refreshing to play a character who’s so excited about life,” Carrigan says. “When I’m playing Hank, I just feel so energized, and I want to continue playing him forever. Especially this season, I really get to explore more of him and I’...

The big theme of Girls5Eva‘s Emmy-needing second season may be reflected in the premiere’s title, “Album Mode,” but for the rest of us, it’s Episode 4’s moniker, “Can’t Wait 2 Wait.” Because we are waiting for a full soundtrack release, Peacock! But until then, fans of the girl-group comedy that should be on everyone’s playlist can groove to this exclusive behind-the-scenes clip, above, showcasing the cast and creative team’s approach to Season 2’s tunes. “This season is when they really let it rip,” says Paula Pell, whose lesbian dental hygienist Gloria is back with fellow warblers Summer (Busy Philipps), Dawn (Sara Bareilles), and Wickie (Renée Elise Goldsberry) to record their first post-reunion album of what co-ep Tina Fey refers to as “so many great songs.” And she’s not blowing smoke.

The British Film Commission (Bfc) and the Italian Film Commissions (IFC) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding that seeks to facilitate high-end film and TV production collaboration between the two countries.

The idea is to boost opportunities and incentives for big productions shot in both territories, such as Disney’s “The Little Mermaid,” which was filmed in the U.K. and Sardinia, Universal’s “No Time To Die” and the upcoming live-action “Pinocchio” directed by Robert Zemeckis for Disney+.

The agreement, which was signed in Cannes, will also strengthen the rapport between the network of regional organizations and partners in both territories,

Campbell joins previously announced cast members Anthony Mackie, Stephanie Beatriz, and Thomas Haden Church in the series version of the Playstation video game franchise.

In the half-hour action comedy show, a motor-mouthed outsider (Mackie) is offered a chance at a better life, but only if he can successfully deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. With the help of a trigger-happy car thief (Beatriz), he’ll face savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction and other dangers of the open road, including a deranged clown who drives an all too familiar ice cream truck.

The wait for more “Stranger Things” is almost over, with the first portion of the Netflix show’s highly anticipated fourth season dropping next Friday.

Much has been made of Netflix’s decision to split “Stranger Things 4” into two volumes, with one batch of episodes streaming on May 27 and more being released on July 1. But until now, little was known about how the streamer planned to split up the season.

Volume 1 will contain Episodes 1 through 7, with Volume 2 finishing the story with Episodes 8 and 9. Netflix recently revealed that episodes 7 through 9 are both feature-length, ensuring that both volumes receive a proper ending.

“Stranger Things 4” is truly an epic endeavor, with the nine episodes containing five more hours of footage than any of the previous seasons. With “Stranger Things 5” scheduled to be the final season of the blockbuster show, “Stranger Things 4” has quite a bit of foundation to lay for the series finale.

This wasn’t supposed to be Joe Buck’s first assignment for ESPN.

The veteran sports announcer raised eyebrows earlier this year by jumping from his longtime roost at Fox Sports to the Disney sports giant, where he and colleague Troy Aikman are set to host “Monday Night Football.” On Thursday afternoon, however, Buck was doing something completely different. Here he was, sitting alongside golf analyst Michael Collins on ESPN2, watching Tiger Woods on the green at the 2022 PGA Championship and talking to baseball great Ken Griffey Jr. about his golf and baseball swings.

Even though the setting is relaxed and informal,

Stranger Things Season 4 is just days away from dropping its first batch of episodes with Volume 1 and Netflix is giving fans a taste of what they can expect by unveiling the premiere’s first eight minutes. In the exciting first look, viewers are given a glimpse of what life was like in Hawkins, Indiana in 1979, more specifically, what it was like for Matthew Modine‘s Dr. Brenner and Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) at Hawkins National Laboratory. The lengthy tease unveils some of the violent goings-on at the facility that is sure to play a crucial role in Season 4’s storytelling. (Credit: Netflix) Along with offering a revealing preview, the streamer is also sharing the breakdown of what episodes will arrive with Volume 1 on May 27 versus what installments will be a part of Volume 2 arriving Friday, July 1.
