The LA fires have affected multiple TV shows, with production being shut down.

Shows include Greys Anatomy, NCIS, SWAT, Hacks, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, Doctor Odyssey, Abbott Elementary, All American, and The Pitt.

This list may grow, and atm, its unknown when any of them will resume.

Interesting about Ahsoka, the actor who played Lurch in Hot Fuzz

Daredevil (Born Again) trailer.

Ted Lasso appeared to be over after Season 3.
However, Season 4 has (re)appeared on Production Weekly this week.

To me it looked like they were setting up a spin off with the women’s team idea at the end of season 3. Whatever they do with it, it has been excellent so far so I’m glad it’s coming back.

A Buffy the Vampire Slayer sequel series is apparently in the works at Hulu.
Sarah Michelle Gellar could reprise her role as Buffy for the series, details are sketchy.

Filming has begun on the Reacher (Neagley) spinoff.
There doesnt seem to be any official title yet, its just known as Neagley for now.

CBS has ordered a spinoff from Blue Bloods, called Boston Blue.

A 9-1-1 spinoff called 9-1-1: Nashville has been ordered.

A spin-off from Fire Country has been ordered, to be called Sheriff Country.

Looks like John Lithgow will be the new Dumbledore.

Marvel has ordered a TV special of The Punisher, following on from his re-appearance in Daredevil.

Following the cancellation of two "FBI" spin-off series (Most Wanted & International) a third spin-off is still looking possible, it would be "FBI: CIA".

The original FBI series (currently in Season 7) was renewed for 3 seasons last year (7, 8 & 9). It seems likely it will then end after season 9.

Stuart Fails to Save the Universe is the title for the latest spin-off from The Big Bang Theory.

It will centre around comic book store owner Stuart, and his his girlfriend Denise.
Also in the series will be two other TBBG characters from Caltech - Bert & Kripke (others may appear).

Netflix has given a series order for a live-action Scooby-Doo series.
Apparently it will "uncover how everyone’s favorite mystery-solving gang, and their beloved dog, first teamed up to crack the haunting case that started it all."

However, it also states it will be a "modern reimagining of the iconic mystery-solving group of teens and their very special dog".

Sadly, as a comment on the article noted : "modern reimagining" often means "ruined".

Maybe Velma with have dark skin like in the recent cartoon or Fred will be gay. Either way I'll give it a chance when it arrive.

“Modern re-imagining” = “writers lack the skill to work within an established story-universe so they’ve binned it and decided to do their own thing.”

That Velma cartoon was a complete disaster, but yeah, its Netflix, so probably.
They'll have to throw in the obligatory gay person, black person, and non binary, despite the fact none are part of Scooby Doo.
