After months of speculation, Netflix has decided not to pursue a deal to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. Netflix leaders Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters explained in a statement that matching the latest offer from Paramount Skydance would have been too expensive and wouldn’t have made financial sense, so they are withdrawing from the bidding process.
It wasn’t Frozen or Frozen II, Moana or a sequel, or even the recent live-action The Lion King. The biggest hit was actually Zootopia 2, which earned an amazing $1.859 billion from the winter of 2025 into early 2026.
The first trailers for the movie Avengers: Doomsday premiered in theaters with showings of Avatar: Fire and Ash before being published online between December 23, 2025, and January 13, 2026. Marvel Studios is planning a similar strategy for the upcoming Secret Wars movie, but fans may need to wait a few weeks after Doomsday is released or buy another movie ticket to see them.
In addition to receiving widespread critical praise, Zootopia 2 was a massive commercial success, becoming one of the highest-grossing films ever made. It had the fourth-best opening weekend of the year and remained popular in theaters for months. As of its release, the film has earned $1.85 billion worldwide, making it the top-grossing movie of the year. This impressive total also puts Zootopia 2 among the all-time greats, ranking as the ninth-highest-grossing film in history – surpassing 2024’s Inside Out 2 and falling just behind 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home.
After a long wait, Season 10 of Scrubs – often called the revival – has finally started. The creator felt compelled to address fan reactions and explain a major plot twist. This new season, which comes 16 years after the poorly-received Season 9, reunites original cast members Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, Neil Flynn, and John C. McGinley for more stories at Sacred Heart Hospital. However, the fate of one important relationship has left many viewers upset and even considering stopping watching.
The new series quickly became a hit after its first season. It gained a large and enthusiastic fanbase with just six episodes, and critics praised it as highly as the popular show Game of Thrones. Interestingly, the series found success by doing something HBO usually avoids with its Game of Thrones universe.
The 2011 action thriller looked promising on paper – Jason Statham protecting Robert De Niro from dangerous criminals? It sounded like a guaranteed hit! With a strong cast including Clive Owen, Yvonne Strahovski, and Paul Mendelsohn, it had all the ingredients for success. However, it didn’t perform well in theaters. Luckily, Tubi is now offering the film for free, giving fans another chance to enjoy it.
I just finished watching Hannibal for the first time, and now I understand why fans were so disappointed when it ended. It’s clear the show has had a big influence on a lot of other series too.
Dr. Cox became the acting Chief of Medicine in Season 7 of Scrubs and officially took on the role permanently in Season 8. Many viewers thought he would continue leading Sacred Heart Hospital for much longer. While it felt natural for JD to eventually take over from his mentor, it happened surprisingly quickly. However, if Cox was considering retirement around the time JD returned, there was only one other doctor qualified to lead the hospital.
Originally described as a touching exploration of loss and relationships, the show The Madison has shared some plot details. Reports say Amanda Pfeiffer will play Stacy Clyburn, who relocates to the Madison River Valley following a tragic plane crash that killed her husband and brother-in-law. However, recent changes in the cast suggest the show is taking a new direction.
