  • I've Got 47 Problems But 86 Ain't One by Joe Mandese (Red, White & Blog on 04/29/2026)

    Speaking of 86, we must never forget Agent 86, the secret agent Maxwell Smart (Don Adams), famed for his mobile shoe phone on the 1960s spy comedy series "Get Smart." Sorry about that, chief! - Adam Buckman, MediaPost TV blogger

  • R.I.P. NATPE: The Glory That Was Rome by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 04/01/2026)

    Thanks for checking in, Joe. Of all the things you just described -- I can't decide which is better -- witnessing Hulk Hogan lifting Vanna White over his head or seeing Cloris Leachman drunk. It's a toss-up!

  • 'Crazy' Story: Leonardo DiCaprio Accused Of Chimp Abuse by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 09/11/2024)

    After this TV blog was published on Wednesday morning, PETA provided a timeline (not provided previously) to support its claim that it made multiple efforts starting in 2013 to contact DiCaprio with information regarding "the plight of chimpanzees in film/TV history" and provide "information" about the alleged mistreatment of Chance by the Rosaire family. PETA alleges that the actor did not reply.

  • Outdoor Campaign For 'And Just Like That ...' Takes Over NYC by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 06/22/2023)

    OUTFRONT Media is the out-of-home advertising firm that worked with New York City and Max to mount the citywide promotion campaign for the second season of "And Just Like That ...". The TV Blog mistakenly identified the company as Outdoor Media. The blog has been corrected and updated. The TV Blog regrets the error. -- A. Buckman

  • 'Last Light' Plays Like Network Show, Goes Straight To Streaming by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 09/06/2022)

    Correction: A representative of Peacock has informed me that the character played by Matthew Fox in "Last Light" is "Andy Yeats," not "Andy Nielsen." However, the character is identified as "Andy Nielsen" on the show's landing page on Peacock's web site for journalists -- which is how I came to use it in today's TV Blog. Nevertheless, the TV Blog regrets the error.

  • With Team In The Sweet 16, Gonzaga Star Endorses Gambling by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 03/25/2022)

    An update to the above TV Blog: While the Gonzaga Bulldogs did make it to the March Madness Sweet 16, they will not be advancing to the Elite 8 after losing to Arkansas on Thursday night (after this TV Blog was written and filed earlier on Thursday). Thank you, as always, for reading the TV Blog. -- Adam Buckman

  • Oscar Preview, Part 2: Showmanship Deficit Plagues Joyless Show by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 03/24/2022)

    Please allow me to clarify what happened here. We actually changed and updated that sentence to its present wording after Mr. Butcher pointed out our original error, for which we thank him. Sorry for any confusion, and have a great weekend. I am grateful for your readership. -- Adam Buckman

  • Jimmy Dean Product Placement Almost Kills Young Sheldon by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 11/17/2017)

    This just in (Monday, 11-20-17): The Jimmy Dean brand did not pay for this product placement, a spokesperson for Tyson Foods (parent company of Jimmy Dean) clarified in an email to the TV Blog. -- ABuckman

  • 'Simpsons' Halloween Special Is Brand Slam For Butterfinger by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 10/16/2017)

    Columnist's update: Al Jean, executive producer of "The Simpsons," informs me via Twitter today (10-17-17) that Kang and Kodos are indeed visible in "Treehouse Of Horror XXVIII" as "candies" in the trick-or-treat candy bowl also occupied by the Simpson family candy bars (although not in the above publicity photo, apparently). He was gracious in his correction, wishing me a Happy Halloween, which I hearby pass on to all readers of the TV Blog here. My one-word Twitter reply to him was: "D'oh!"

  • Message To P.R. People: Stop 'Reaching Out' To Me, OK? by Adam Buckman (TVBlog on 11/11/2016)

    To all who read this blog post and especially to those who emailed me and/or left a comment here: I am very gratified by the attention this post has received since its publication last Friday. Good, bad or indifferent, I am grateful for your readership. All best, A. Buckman
