In the Peacock original drama Dr. Death, one of the most gut-wrenching episodes was Episode 5, which showcased a Turkish patient, Yesim Cetir, and her family putting their immense faith in Dr. Macchiarini, only to experience a devastating betrayal. Portrayed by Alisha Erozer, Yesim Cetir is based on the story of a real-life Turkish patient with severe tracheal damage, which has been brought to light in Dr. Death Season 2 Episode 5. Yesim Cetir’s journey was based on a true story, while the makers took some creative liberties and added depth to her character arc, which helped us get to know her better and to empathize with the pain she had suffered from.

New doctor. New story. Dr. Death returns with its second season on Peacock on Thursday, December 21, with the focus on “Miracle Man” Paolo Macchiarini (Edgar Ramírez) and Benita Alexander (Mandy Moore), the investigative journalist doing a story on him. “History’s built on lines that we must be willing to cross,” Paolo says in the new trailer, but does he go too far? According to several people at different instances in the video, yes, he does. The implications of his work — he’s taken a 3D-printed trachea and transformed it into a living organ — are historic, and there’s even talk of the Nobel Prize, plus his patients really trust him. But then a patient dies, and Dr. Nathan Gamelli (Luke Kirby) wonders why he’s not being held accountable. Paolo denies that issues are related to his procedure. Watch the full video above for more of the investigation into Paolo.

The Bombay High Court has dismissed pleas seeking a stay on the release of the Netflix India series “The Railway Men – The Untold Story of Bhopal 1984.” The series, inspired by events surrounding the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, faced opposition from two former employees of Union Carbide India Limited (Ucil), convicted in connection with the 1984 tragedy.
Justice Arif Doctor, presiding over a vacation bench on November 15, rejected the petitioners’ request, emphasizing their failure to establish a “very strong and compelling prima facie case” of defamatory material in the series. The court acknowledged that the Bhopal Gas Tragedy was a significant and unfortunate event well-documented in the public domain through various media.
Highlighting the disclaimer at the beginning of the series stating it as a “work of fiction” and only “inspired” by true events, the judge noted that the events surrounding the gas leak have been extensively discussed in documentaries, movies, and books over the years.

Mandy Moore fell victim to a porch pirate recently, when a stroller she ordered for her infant son was stolen. The 39-year-old “This Is Us” alum and her husband, musician Taylor Goldsmith, caught the moment on a security camera.
The actress took to Instagram on Wednesday to share an image of the purported thief in action, snagging a large box from in front of a security gate. The image appears to be a video still sent to her from her husband via text message.
“People Are the Worst,” she wrote over the image.
“I was wondering where the @cybex_usa stroller I ordered for Ozzie went. I was going back and forth with customer service and @fedex and I swore to them it wasn’t delivered and then I found this video (which won’t load here for some reason),” she wrote. “This dude watched for an hour while the...
