Hey, it's your favorite newZletter
Vol. 105: Oh thank heaven. It's 7/11!
It’s a Tuesday of the see-you-next variety and things are moving and shaking over here. Summer plans have us doing nothing but work, work, work, work, work (to be sung in Rihanna’s voice). ZlataPR is busier than ever (TG!), and I’ve got just enough time to put together a fun roundup for all my friendZ today. Welcome to your 10-minute break and breath of fresh gossip, featuring a new lineup of upcoming showZ, the newZ everyone’s talking about, and the real reason you love me (funnieZ!). OK that’s it, let’s go. Remember: these gems will be for subscribers only soon so PLEASE consider doing just that.
As the 1900s philosopher and poet Young Joc once said: It’s goin down.

HGTV’s Ugliest House in America: Summer Road Trip debuts Monday, August 7 at 8p. Parks and Recreation fans will remember Retta, the comedian host of the show. In its last run, the series pulled nearly 11 million viewers.
Law&Crime, an unreasonably popular true crime YouTube channel, recently hit 5 million subscribers. We are all demented.
Hulu has launched Hulu Animayhem, a new brand focused on adult animation and anime content. Okay, cool. But, have we listened to ourselves lately? The silliness of brand names is getting out of control.
Netflix has canceled Snowflake Mountain, a reality show that pits spoiled young adults against the wilderness. Guess we all like our rich spoiled bitches where they belong: On Bravo.
Case in Glorious Point: Luann & Sonja: Welcome to Crappie Lake debuted this week. The Housewives duo head to rejuvenate the town with the town council. A plot Leslie Knope herself couldn’t write better.
Survivalists do their best on a secluded island in the Pacific, thousands of miles from civilization on Discovery Channel’s new series Naked and Afraid Castaways, debuting Sunday, July 30 at 8p.

Do you smell that? It’s a … Musk of bad business decisions and confusing legal actions. Elon Musk is suing his lawyers. He filed a lawsuit with one set of attorneys alleging another the law firm racked up $90 million in “last minute” legal fees when he tried to buy Twitter, but changed his mind, but then still had to buy it anyway.
Threads saw over 30 million signups in its first 24 hours and 90 million its first 4 days. Zuckerburg said the response was “way beyond our expectations.” Elon Musk said “Copycat.” To which Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri said No, boo. It’ll just “be a less angry place for conversations.” Go off, king. Have you tried it? ThoughtZ?? Follow me because DUHHHHH, I’m on there!
WTF is Threads anyway? So glad you asked. “The vision for Threads is to create an option and friendly public space for conversation,” said Mark Zuckerberg in a Threads post. Not sure if “friendly” quite captures what the public is known for, but okay.
OK that’s more than enough about those guys. Moving on. Kim Kardashian and Tom Brady are rumored to be dating. An inevitable event in this timeline. Like it’s definitely on a Bingo card.
