Actress Sagan Lewis, best known for playing the sweet surgical resident Dr. Jacqueline Wade on the '80s NBC medical drama St. Elsewhere, died Sunday after a six-year struggle with cancer, according to The Hollywood Reporter. For seven years she was the program director of the Sedona International Film Festival.
Creator and executive producer Denis Leary said during the show's panel at the Television Critics Association fall previews that the FX show -- a comedy about aging musicians trying to make it big again -- will do a Birdman-type of episode later this season. The episode will emulate the 2014 Academy Award-winning film by taking place in one music venue over the course of one night.
FXX's critically acclaimed comedy You're the Worst has given viewers a lot to love in its two short seasons, but nothing has been more memorable than the show's exciting Sunday Funday (better than a Monday!) episodes, which have become something of a tradition. On Tuesday, series creator Stephen Falk confirmed at the Television Critics Association fall previews that the show's upcoming third season (premiering Aug. 31, 10/9c) would feature another installment of everyone's favorite weekend drinking adventure...

When Nashvillereturns for its fifth season on CMT, Rayna James (Connie Britton) will be trying to get her groove back. Crave scoop on your favorite TV shows?
Donald Glover, Community alum, rapper (under the name Childish Gambino) and creator, writer and star of FX's upcoming Atlanta, initially called the comedy a "hip-hop Twin Peaks" -- a description you'll find apt when watching its first funny, trippy episode. Thanks to the hazy, dream-like imagery director Hiro Murai paints on screen as well as the drifting, wavy quality of the action, Atlanta keeps you suspended in a state somewhere between real and surreal, a very deliberate choice on the part of the creative team.

The second season of UnREAL, Lifetime's fictional drama about the making of a reality dating show, was a mixed bag. Constance Zimmer, who plays monstrous producer Quinn, and Shiri Appleby, as her second-in-command Rachel, were riveting every moment they appeared on screen. The show introduced too many new characters and plot wrinkles, from an undercover reporter trying to expose the underbelly of reality dating show Everlasting; to an alarmingly surface-y treatment of both domestic abuse and racial profiling.

Julianne Moore and Robert De Niro will co-star in a new TV drama from director David O. Russell, Deadline reports. Russell is the Academy Award-nominated director of films including Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle, Joy and The Fighter.
Pharoah has not yet commented on his departure; however, with President Obama leaving office early next year, Pharoah's most well-known impression will no longer be as relevant, so his services are probably no longer needed. Rudnitsky joined the show last season and made a positive impression with sketches like his Dirty Dancing parody, but apparently it was not enough to keep him in the cast.
Netflix's upcoming superhero series Marvel's Luke Cage takes place in Harlem, the neighborhood that may have been the birthplace of "mad." The streaming service just released the official Luke Cage trailer, and it can accurately be described as mad good (even if it is soundtracked by a verse from El-P, a rapper from Brooklyn).
To be clear: the prior Ghost Riders did have some demonic/satanic overtones; the current one decidedly does not, and is just your run-of-the-mill evil spirit. [...] where the previous holders of the name Ghost Rider have had their lives ruined by the spirit of vengeance, the current one already had a pretty rough life, living in a poor neighborhood, balancing taking care of a developmentally disabled brother with a job and school, etc. Beyond the background, Reyes' vehicle of choice is a flaming Dodge Charger...

China's golden boy, swimmer Sun Yang has given normal people everywhere a reminder that even world class athletes have moments of ineptitude. Upon winning the 200m freestyle swim in Rio, Yang opted to toss his swimming cap to his swarm of supportive fans. A noble and kind gesture, were it not for the slip-of-hand that resulted in the cap fleeing from its owner and launching itself back into the pool.

For the sake of the long-suffering constituents in his district and other Nebraskans across the state, Sen. Bill Kintner ought to resign his seat.
