Divorced couple and former “Flip or Flop” hosts Tarek El Moussa and Christina Hall are soon to reunite in a spinoff called “The Flip Off.”
The news was announced at Warner Bros. Discovery’s 2024 upfront presentation, during which the company gave several updates regarding its lifetyle brands, including that John Cena will host Discovery Channel’s annual Shark Week.
“Flip or Flop” ended in 2022 after 10 seasons on HGTV due to ongoing difficulties from the 2017 divorce but “The Flip Off,” launching in early 2025, will feature the exes and their new spouses in a competition to find, buy, renovate and flip a house for the biggest financial gain.

NFL Network is cutting ties with commentator Michal Irvin after 15 years, Deadline has learned. Irvin’s exit comes amid a major shakeup at the network.
The former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver had been at the network since 2009. Irvin made headlines when he was booted from NFL Network’s Super Bowl coverage in 2023 following a complaint from a woman as he checked into his hotel. Irvin denied wrongdoing and filed a defamation lawsuit alleging he was falsely accused.
After being taken off the air, Irvin returned to the network later that year at the start of the NFL season.

Kyle Brandt and Jason McCourty hosted Good Morning Football one last time from the NYC studio before the show’s move to LA later this year.
Things got emotional at the end of the broadcast when Brandt went outside to the streets, where the cast had hosted many segments over the years. Brandt recalled the first episode, which aired on August 1, 2016, in which he said it was an “honor” and “privilege” to be at the Gmfb table in NYC.
“I also remember at that time I had 18 months guaranteed on my contract, and my wife said, ‘Well, if the show is terrible, at least we have 18 months to figure out how to move back to LA,'” Brandt said. “And 18 months in New York City became eight years, it became over 1,800 episodes and it became home at the breakfast table.”

“Good Morning Football” is going for extra yards.
The NFL, which has aired the A.M. program since 2016 on its own NFL Network, plans to create a new two-hour “extension series” that will be carried by multiple partners in syndication. Sony Pictures Television will distribute the program, which will have a new title. Meanwhile, the original “Good Morning Football” will go on hiatus for the summer starting March 29 and will relaunch by preseason.
“Good Morning Football” was the first New York based program to run on NFL Network and replaced the Los Angeles studio program “NFL Am.” The current program will soon originate from a new complex in Inglewood, Calif., where the league will have access to five different soundstages and a podcast studio for its various media produtions.

Is CBS a full-fledged Swiftie?
The network got creative with their Taylor Swift coverage on Sunday as the Kansas City Chiefs faced off against the Los Angeles Chargers. After Travis Kelce scored a touchdown, putting the Chiefs up 24 to 17, CBS compared his statistics on-screen “with Taylor Swift in attendance” versus when he’s been “left to his own devices.” And, for the record, his performance excels with the pop star in the stands, logging 99 receiving yards per game. Last year, Kelce led the league in that category, averaging 78.7 yards per game.

Not long after the introduction of the reality and competition program Emmy categories in the early 2000s, the TV academy decided to begin honoring the work of those shows’ presenters by establishing the Best Reality/Competition Host category in 2008. Over the years, the nominees here have hailed from game and talent shows of all kinds, including those structured around dancing, singing, fashion, and food.
Included on the 2022 ballot list below is reigning champion RuPaul of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” who has triumphed on all six of his consecutive bids for the VH1 series. Others seeking repeat victories include Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum (“Making the Cut;” formerly of “Project Runway”), Jane Lynch (“Weakest Link;” formerly of “Hollywood Game Night”), and Jeff Probst (“Survivor”).

What started as a rumor that Paul Rudd convinced or coached Leonardo DiCaprio to star in “Titanic” has spiraled even further into the belief that Rudd himself was actually in the mix to play Leo’s lead role.
Rudd dispelled that rumor and downplayed the idea that he had anything to do with DiCaprio starring in James Cameron’s blockbuster in a new podcast interview with The Ringer.
“No, no that’s not true. I was never in the running. I just had a real interest in it because my father was a Titanic expert,” Rudd said on “10 Questions With With Kyle Brandt.” “That was how he made his living. Talking about the Titanic. So when they announced they were making this film I really wanted to get in on it for my dad. But no we were not in the running.”

"Catching Hell" debuted Tuesday night (Sept. 27) on Espn as part of the sports channel's 30 for 30 documentary series. It detailed the events and aftermath of Steve Bartman's historic foul-ball catch during Game 6 of the 2003 Nlcs between the Chicago Cubs and Florida Marlins, a series the Cubs were leading 3 games to Florida's 2.
In case you are not aware, the Cubs were leading Game 6 3-0 in the eighth inning when a foul ball came towards the left-field line. Bartman (and several other spectators) went for the ball, as did left fielder Moises Alou. Bartman caught it - it was pretty much out of play for the outfielder. But Alou's angry reaction on the field was all it took for the fans to get murderously riled up, especially after the Marlins peeled off eight (eight!) runs that inning. Clearly, Bartman was solely to blame.
Bartman's life changed forever, hence the title of the documentary.
