Vol. 136: “Receipts! Proof! Timeline! Screenshots!”

Jan 10, 2024

HelloZ

It was torrential down pouring outside yesterday, and while I didn’t actually step foot out of the house, I saw it was also super duper windy and quite literally everything was canceled. Yay! (Read: sarcastically.)

I’m catching up on a lot of work and emails, but I’m making it a priority in 2024 to send out Substacks on a more frequent basis, so here I am like Reality Von Teese in 2022.

First thing’s first: Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Reunion Part 1 aired last night and I, for one, couldn’t wait to not watch it real time because what is watching TV in real time anyway?
In other Bravo reunion news, The “Southern Charm” crew gathers for a two-part season nine reunion premiering Thursday, January 11 at 8pm.
Tired of all the Golden Globe coverage? Me too. I loved some outfits, hated some others, couldn’t give to S’s about TS and frankly, I have many a-thoughts about TimLie. Big winners included “Succession” for drama series, “The Bear” for comedy, and “Beef” for limited series. Kieran Culkin took home the award for Best Male Performance in a Drama (duh), a category that also included two of his “Succession” stars, Brian Cox and Jeremy Strong. For the full list of winners, click here.
Concrete jungles where dreams and a ton of content is made. Page Six debuted a state-of-the-art studio in New York City so that they can produce daily hosted video segments, including celebrity entertainment news, beauty and fashion advice, and shoppable video. All video content will be published on pagesix.com, YouTube, and Page Six social handles. Sounds like they should have rebranded as Page Six Six Six.
He’s a cold hearted snake. Nigel Lythgoe, co-creator, judge and executive producer of “So You Think You Can Dance,” is stepping away from the show in the wake of two lawsuits accusing him of sexual assault, including one from Paula Abdul. “In the meantime,” he says. “I am dedicating myself to clearing my name and restoring my reputation.”
Leslie Bibb, Dom Hetrakul, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey and Tayme Thapthimthong are headed to Thailand for season three of HBO’s “The White Lotus,” alongside previously announced returning cast member Natasha Rothwell. The punny fact that Bangkok and Phuket are two popular cities in the country had absolutely nothing to do with their decision, but it sure won’t hurt when creating future punchlines.
Tina Fey will star in Netflix comedy “The Four Seasons,” which she co-created with Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield (“30 Rock”). The series follows three couples who vacation together every year. So sort of like “White Lotus” but make it comedy?
Some people will do just about anything to avoid paying for a babysitter, huh? Peacock’s “Couple to Throuple” follows four couples navigating the world of polyamory, and starts Thursday, February 8. Set at a remote tropical resort, the couples will decide whether to commit as a throuple, go home as they arrived, or leave separately.
