Pro Wrestling’s Darker Side Will Get Unveiled In New TV Docuseries
2 minutes ago In recent years, much attention has been rightfully placed on the uncomfortable and morally bereft corners of the entertainment industry, from cinema to television to music and beyond. Now, a new Viceland series titled Dark Side of the Ring is taking aim at the well-documented troubles and tragedies within the world of pro wrestling, with stories centered on legendary athletes like Randy "Macho Man" Savage, Bret Hart, The Fabulous Moolah and more. No doubt many viewers tune into WWE's Monday Night Raw every week without the knowledge of just how twisted things have been in the pro wrestling industry, but Dark Side of the Ring could be a wake-up call for many. Viceland announced the six-episode docuseries will hit the midseason schedule on Wednesday, April 10, just three days after the biggest wrestling night of the year: WrestleMania 35. That timing probably isn't coincidental. Understandably, WrestleMania ties into at least one of the emotional stories being … [Read more...] about Pro Wrestling’s Darker Side Will Get Unveiled In New TV Docuseries
How HBO’s Michael Jackson Documentary Leaving Neverland Did In The Ratings
5 minutes ago HBO's Leaving Neverland focused on two extremely detailed sets of molestation allegations leveled against arguably the most popular musician who's ever lived. Even without the early reviews from its Sundance premiere, Leaving Neverland was destined to garner a lot of attention when it made its televised debut. The Live+Same Day ratings are now in, and HBO execs were likely pleased by the all the eyeballs that were tallied for the two-night airing. Sunday Night Because Leaving Neverland clocks in at around four hours, HBO wisely split the telecast up into two parts, with the first airing on Sunday night. The doc managed to make it into the Top 10 cable telecasts of the night, at least in terms of the key age demographic for adults 18-49. It earned a 0.4 demo rating and was tied for the fifth highest demo of the night. (Quite a few other shows, such as Showtime's Shameless, Adult Swim's Hot Streets and Discovery's Alaskan Bush People, also got a 0.4 rating.) As far … [Read more...] about How HBO’s Michael Jackson Documentary Leaving Neverland Did In The Ratings

Anthony Scaramucci to join cast of ‘Celebrity Big Brother’
By The Washington Post | PUBLISHED: January 13, 2019 at 3:21 pm | UPDATED: January 13, 2019 at 3:21 pm By Helena Andrews-Dyer | The Washington Post “Celebrity Big Brother” has once again dipped into President Donald Trump’s former employee rolls for on-air talent: CBS announced Sunday that Anthony Scaramucci, the man who lasted less than two weeks as the White House communications director, is joining the B-list cast of the “Real World” meets “Survivor” competition series. Scaramucci follows in the stilletoed footsteps of former Trump staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman, whose salacious tenure on “Big Brother” was marked by headline-grabbing confessionals about the utter chaos behind the scenes at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. While there’s no doubt that “the Mooch” will be dropping gems of his own, as a Trump loyalist, we doubt Scaramucci’s revelations will be half as jaw-dropping as Omarosa’s tea. … [Read more...] about Anthony Scaramucci to join cast of ‘Celebrity Big Brother’
