NCIS is having a strong season on CBS. After a few years of declining viewership and somewhat unclear storylines, the show seems to have regained its focus in its 23rd season. While the season has been consistently good, the fall finale promises a major twist that will make the rest of the season even more compelling.
The discussion started on the Celebrity Jets subreddit, with a post showing what seems to be a flight taken by Kardashian from Los Angeles to Palm Springs. The flight was very short – just 33 minutes – and the two cities are only about 100 miles apart. To put that in perspective, driving between them usually takes around two hours, depending on traffic.
Netflix announced that “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery,” which premiered on December 12, 2025, quickly became the most-watched movie globally. It garnered 20.2 million views and a total of 49.2 million hours of watch time.
The Academy Award winner admitted the story was true, prompting Hawke to jokingly ask if the other person had been kissed in the same location as him. Paltrow quickly assured him that wasn’t the case, emphatically stating she would never do something like that and wouldn’t want to ruin their special kissing spot. Hopefully, Hawke isn’t overly sentimental about ping pong balls.
It’s disappointing that we probably won’t get a sequel to Honor Among Thieves, but let’s focus on what’s coming next. Netflix is making a Forbidden Realms show, though I’m not optimistic about it since Netflix often cancels shows too soon. I’m really looking forward to season 2 of Delicious in Dungeon, which is available on Netflix but was originally made elsewhere. While it’s not strictly based on Dungeons & Dragons, it’s clearly inspired by the game.
It’s been an incredible year for Leavitt! While other cast members from her reality show have faced public scrutiny, she reached the semi-finals on Dancing with the Stars with Mark Ballas. And right after being eliminated, she announced she’ll be starring as Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway next year. From podcaster to a role portraying a criminal, all within six months – it’s a remarkable story!
According to Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman, Nick Reiner faces a potential sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole, or even the death penalty. Formal charges were scheduled to be filed on December 16th, the day after Reiner was arrested for the murder of his parents.
A trailer for the latest film from Destin Daniel Cretton, the director of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, appears to have been accidentally released online. Although some doubted the clip was real, Sony’s response suggests it might be authentic.
As a huge film fan, I was really excited to hear about the early screenings of Avatar: Fire and Ash in early December. The reviews were finally released on December 16th, 2025 – exactly three years after Avatar: The Way of Water came out. Initially, the first reactions were good, but now that the full reviews are in, it seems like the film isn’t quite as well-received as the previous Avatar movies, or really, anything James Cameron has directed. It’s still a fresh release, but the critical scores are definitely lower than expected.
I was really looking forward to this new horror movie, scheduled for January 9th, 2026, but it seems like Universal has not only cancelled its release, they’re actually trying to sell it off to another studio! As far as anyone knows, there’s no word yet on who might take it on, which is a shame. I’m hoping someone will still give it a chance.
