Fox is bringing back Fantasy Island on August 10th. Today, they announced who will be playing Mr. Roarke, and it is Rosalyn Sanchez.
According to Fox, Elena Roarke, a descendant of Mr. Roarke, will “set aside her own ambitions, and even the love of her life, to uphold her family’s legacy. Sophisticated, insightful and always charming, Elena’s calm exterior masks the challenges of the responsibilities she has assumed as steward of this mysterious island.”
Sanchez will be joined by Kiara Barnes as Ruby Okoro, a woman with a terminal illness who gets a different fate on the Island. They will share the island John Gabriel Rodriquez as Javier; he is the pilot and the answer to all of their problems.
If you have never seen the original series, you can stream all of the seasons for both the original show and the remake on Tubi TV starting this Friday.
Fox has been building up their animation slate over the last year. However, today they decided to cancel one of their show. According to Variety, Bless the Harts will not be back for a third season.
The show starred Kristin Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Jillian Bell, Ike Barinholtz, and Kumail Nanjiani, and it was produced by Oscar winners Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.
Personally, I was surprised they brought it back for a second season because it was not doing that well in the ratings during their first.
The Masked Singer will be back for a fifth season on March 10th, and Fox is making some big changes to the show.
We know that Nick Cannon will be out for a few episodes because he tested positive for COVID-19 at the start of filming. He was temporarily replaced by Niecey Nash during that time.
Today, they announced another change. Season five celebrity contestants will be split into two groups of five (a and b). But the game changes when all-new celebrities, masked from head to toe, jump into the “wildcard” rounds and perform for the chance to win it all!
Who are the contestants for this season? Combined, they have 26 nominations, nine multi-platinum singles, four academy award nominations, three super bowl appearances, six gold medals, and two world records!
Mayim Bialik is back with her own sitcom on Fox tonight at 8p (or after the football game, depending on where you live). Bialik plays Kat, a 39-year-old single woman who owns a cat cafe in Call Me Kat.
Kat lives on her own above her cat cafe. Her mom (Swoosie Kurtz) would love her daughter to stop being the crazy cat lady and get married like Kat’s best friend Tara (Vanessa Lachey). In the pilot episode, Tara is renewing her vows, and she asked Kat to bring a plus one. Kat asks one of her workers from the cafe to go with her. Phil (Leslie Jordan) is getting over a breakup with his boyfriend, so he is more than willing to go with his boss. However, Kat’s college crush, Max (Cheyenne Jackson), is back in town working at the bar by her cafe, and she would rather go with him to the wedding. What Kat doesn’t know is that Max is dating another woman from Paris. What will Kat do when she finds out that his girlfriend is also in town?
Thankfully, Kat can confide in her other employee Randi (Kyla Pratt). Randi is going to do everything in her power to get Kat to change. Something Kat will have to do because her mother won’t stop fixing her up on dates. Dates she doesn’t want because all she wants to do is date Max. Does he want to date her? Kat will do everything she can to find out.
Did I mention there are cats on the show? I mean, this is a show about a cat cafe, so we have to have kitties. They just make this sitcom even more meowvelous.
That and the cast play off of each purrfectly. How can you not have comedy tuna with Leslie Jordan and Swoosie Kurtz on the show. They always bring the funny, no matter what they do.
Because of all of the above, you will be drawn to Call Me Kat like a cat is drawn to catnip.
