CBS has learned The IT Crowd exists.

Hopefully NBC has forgotten, because the US Pilot was horrendous.

US only.

You can watch the first episode of Star Trek Prodigy for free on YouTube.

Paramount+ has officially announced a new series from the frequent collaborators David Cross and Bob Odenkirk. The documentary-style series, titled Guru Nation, follows the two as they play rival cult leading Gurus who seek to “manipulat[e] the minds of their deluded followers.”

Odenkirk and Cross created the project together and have pulled Borat 2 director Jason Woliner on board as the director of the series. Odenkirk, Cross and Woliner will all serve as executive producers alongside Marc Provissiero, Naomi Odenkirk, Tim Sarkes. The announcement for the series was made during Paramount’s TCA press tour along with a growing slate of new series and series renewals.

Everybody Still Hates Chris: The Animated Series in development.

Everybody Still Hates Chris, a reimagined animated version of Chris Rock’s beloved autobiographical family comedy Everybody Hates Chris, has received a straight-to-series order by MTV Entertainment. It will be windowed globally across streamer Paramount+ and sibling linear network Comedy Central. Rock is back as narrator and executive producer of the new series, which, like the original, is inspired by the comedian’s teenage years. CBS Studios and 3 Arts Entertainment, which produced Everybody Hates Chris and originally developed the animated reboot, will produce with MTV Entertainment Studios.

Sanjay Shah (South Park, Central Park) serves as showrunner and wrote the pilot script for Everybody Still Hates Chris, inspired by Rock’s experiences growing up as a skinny nerd in a large working class family in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, during the late 1980s. Shah executive produces the new series with Everybody Hates Chris co-creators/executive producers Rock and Ali LeRoi and executive producers Michael Rotenberg and Dave Becky of 3 Arts. Also exec producing the reboot is Grant Gish, MTV Entertainment Studios’ Head of Adult Animation.

Showtime has been integrated into P+ via a bundle. For now, Showtime will still be offered as a standalone service as well.

In a promo set to run through Oct. 2, the Paramount+ with Showtime bundle is available to U.S. subscribers at $7.99 per month for the Essential Plan (with ads) and $12.99 per month for the Premium Plan (no ads), representing discounts of 33% and 13% respectively off the regular bundle pricing. The discounted pricing is good for as long as customers keep their bundles (or until Paramount opts to adjust the terms of the offer). After Oct. 2, the bundle will be available for $11.99/month for the Essential tier or $14.99/month for the ad-free Premium tier. The company will not run ads in Showtime content for bundle subscribers with the Paramount+ Essential Plan.

Paramount will continue to offer Showtime separately for $10.99 per month as a standalone service and through third-part party distributors.

So it begins, the consolidation of streaming services until we circle back around to cable.

Oof.

The Paramount Global-backed streamer has canceled Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies after a single season, reversed its decision on a season-two pickup for the animated and kids-focused Star Trek: Prodigy, axed competition series Queen of the Universe after two seasons, and nixed a revival of The Game after two seasons. Additionally, all four shows will be removed from Paramount+ as the conglomerate joins Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery in taking tax write-offs for underperforming series.
