Reading Time: 2 minutes On Thursday, we reported the sad news that Kris Jenner’s mother, Mary Jo “MJ” Campbell, had died at the age of 91. The beloved matriarch of the Kardashian-Jenner clan made numerous appearances on the family’s reality shows over the years, and her death was widely mourned across social media.

U.S. President Donald Trump has dropped part of his $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC, new court documents reveal. Last year, Trump sued the British broadcaster over claims that a BBC Panorama documentary was doctored to make it appear as though Trump, during his Jan. 6, 2021 speech outside the White House, had urged his followers to attack the Capitol. The 33-page document, brought in the U.S. District Court Southern District of Florida in December, alleges that theBBC made “a false, defamatory, deceptive, disparaging, inflammatory, and malicious depiction of President Trump.” New details have now emerged that the BBC’s commercial…
European animation is about to get their own environmental report card. A new European certification program, called ANiMPACT, has begun testing a system that will let animation studios prove they’re producing their work in an environmentally responsible way, something the live-action film industry has been able to do for years. ANiMPACT is run jointly by three organizations: CineRegio, a network of 53 regional film funds across Europe; Ecoprod, a French nonprofit that has worked on sustainable filmmaking since 2009; and Green Film, a certification system for live-action productions that launched in Italy’s Trentino region in 2017 and has since certified…
If Donald Trump proved anything with his primetime address Thursday night, it wasn’t that China or Venezuela hacked into America’s voting machines during the 2020 election. It was that Trump, in 2026, couldn’t even hack into an episode of Press Your Luck. In a snub that you can bet the president will be posting about later — in fact, he couldn’t resist denouncing it during his speech as part of a “plot” — two of the Big Four broadcast networks declined to interrupt their regularly scheduled programming for Trump. NBC stuck with a rerun of its nature series The Americas…
After more than 10 years of streaming content to the country, Netflix has kicked off production on its first original series ever commissioned in New Zealand. On Friday, the company unveiled Queenstown, an eight-episode drama set amid the luxury ski scene of the titular South Island resort town. Unfolding amid the moneyed gloss of the town’s ski-resort elite, the series follows a privileged family and the people who work for them as their lives collide over power, loyalty and desire — or, as Netflix put it, “a wealthy family at war with itself.” Production is underway on location in Queenstown…
Netflix says it’s putting an end to its semiannual data releases that detail views and total time spent on thousands of series and movies on the platform. Instead, the company will move to annual releases starting early next year. But the second half of this year will probably feature a small uptick in viewing time — because that’s how it’s been for just about every six months since Netflix began offering its big data releases. For the first half of 2026, Netflix users worldwide spent about 97.7 billion hours watching series and films on the platform. That’s a 2 percent…

A lot of people found their way to Netflix’s I Will Find You in its first week on the platform. The streamer’s latest series based on a Harlan Coben novel debuted at No. 1 in Nielsen’s streaming ratings for June 15-21, amassing 1.84 billion minutes of viewing time in the United States. (The show was also a worldwide hit, based on Netflix’s internal data.) I Will Find You beat out the previous week’s leader, Love Island USA. The Peacock reality series fell off a little bit but still posted a very strong 1.69 billion viewing minutes (vs. 1.83 billion a…
