After an unforgettable 10-year run, the beloved comedy-drama television series Shameless bid farewell in April 2021, etching a profound memory in viewers’ hearts. Shameless made its cast members millionaires, some earning over $350,000 per episode.
Originating from a British TV show, Shameless, which debuted on Showtime in January 2011, revolved around the Gallagher family’s unorthodox dynamics as they navigated through chaos, addiction, and financial struggles.

Reba McEntire is reuniting with Kevin Abbott, Michael Hanel and Mindy Schultheis — all executive producers from her hit series Reba — to create a new comedy pilot for NBC in collaboration with Universal Television. In addition to the Reba team, Julie Abbott also executive produces.
In the as-yet-untitled multi-cam project, Reba (McEntire) inherits her father’s restaurant and is less than thrilled to discover that she has a new business partner in the half-sister she never knew she had.
This is the first official pilot order for the 2024 broadcast pilot season, which was impacted by the dual WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
McEntire is already part of the NBC family as she looks toward her second season on the hit competition series The Voice. She will join John Legend, Chance the Rapper and Dan + Shay as coaches holding court on Season 25, premiering February 26.

Of course, the raucous Gallagher family isn’t without real-life scandals. As the series was winding down, actor William H. Macy’s wife, actor Felicity Huffman was involved in a high-profile college admissions scandal. Huffman was found guilty of hiring a proctor to change her daughter’s answers on the Sat. She received a short prison sentence and a fine. Macy was not charged.
But since the series wrapped in 2021, where is the Shameless cast now?

You probably didn’t notice, but earlier this year, CBS launched a TV adaptation of True Lies, the 1994 James Cameron-directed action comedy that starred Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis as, respectively, a master spy and the civilian wife who is shocked to discover what her husband really does for a living. The TV show, starring Steve Howey from Shameless and Ginger Gonzaga from She-Hulk in the Arnold and Jamie Lee roles, aired 13 episodes to very little fanfare before being canceled a few weeks ago.

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for the two-part True Lies Season 1 finale, “Lying Truths” and “Waking Dreams.”] Following its May 9 cancellation, the Steve Howey and Ginger Gonzaga-led True Lies came to an end with a two-part series finale on Wednesday, May 17 on CBS. Unfortunately, the series wasn’t planning for the Season 1 finale to be its last, as indicated by its cliffhanger ending. The finale was one scene short of ending on a positive, drama-free note. In the first part of the finale, “Lying Truths,” a van full of computer software containing confidential intel about Omega Sector operatives was hijacked, leading the team to enlist the help of teen hacker Max to figure out who was coordinating the attack. When Harry (Howey) and Helen Tasker (Gonzaga) discovered that Max is dating their daughter, Dana (Annabella Didion), their actions put the mission in jeopardy. Amid the chaos, Helen had to admit to Dana that she and Harry were spies.

"True Lies" may have been a big success for director James Cameron in 1994 as a movie, but it didn't translate quite as well on the small screen. To that end, the CBS TV series of the same name based on Cameron's blockbuster film has been canceled after just one season. "True Lies" season 2 will not be happening, and that means the season finale on May 17 will now serve as the series finale.
According to The Wrap, CBS decided to cancel both "East New York" and "True Lies" after a single season. The short runs were certainly not what CBS had in mind — it illustrates the difficulties that major networks are having in building an audience for a new show as cord-cutting accelerates and streaming continues to dominate. Similarly, CBS initially canceled "S.W.A.T." after six seasons, but then reversed course a day later and picked it up for a seventh and final season.

CBS has canceled both the police procedural “East New York” and “True Lies” after just one season.
According to sources, the decision to cancel the series came down to CBS haggling with the series’ studio Warner Bros. Television over the show’s budget, which included CBS asking that the cast of the show not get the customary pay increases going into the second season. It has previously been reported that CBS has renewed other shows on its lineup, like the comedy “Bob Hearts Abishola,” after asking the cast to take pay cuts or by shifting series regulars to recurring status.

There will be no second season for CBS’ True Lies. The network has canceled the reboot of James Cameron’s hit 1994 action comedy movie after one season. The news comes ahead of the show’s Season 1 finale on May 17.
The decision is not surprising. True Lies has not been able to find an audience, ranking as CBS’ lowest-rated scripted series of the season. Its ratings remained relatively steady, indicating a loyal core audience, but they stayed low.

The Netflix series Sex/Life is one of the streaming platform’s steamiest shows. The first season debuted in June 2021 and became a fast favorite with fans of the romance genre. The series has earned comparisons to other hot properties like the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise, and features a roster of talented, attractive stars. As it turns out, there isn’t just steamy romance onscreen. The show’s stars, Adam Demos and Sarah Shahi, are involved in real life and have been dating since 2020, after first crossing paths on the first season of Sex/Life.
‘Sex/Life’ is a popular romance drama
Based on the successful book by Bb Easton, Sex/Life tells the story of a suburban mother named Billie Mann Connelly, played by Shahi, who is suffering from a major mid-life crisis. She longs for the excitement of her pre-married life, in particular, her relationship with her ex-boyfriend Brad, played by Demos.

The action on True Lies keeps improving, and the humor keeps me entertained, but something is still missing.
When a spy hunter started attacking the working Omega Sector retreat, Harry and Helen teamed up to stop him on True Lies Season 1 Episode 6.
Jann Issacs was a ruthless spy hunter, and only Gib matched him in intelligence and wit.
While I enjoy seeing Helen and Harry team up on various missions, I'm tired of seeing them argue week after week.
It feels very rinse and repeat to have them argue about similar issues, such as he doesn't include her on the mission or he hates that she changed something.
Harry: There is a way I do things!
Helen: Well, it’s not always the best way!
Permalink: Well, it’s not always the best way! Added: April 05, 2023
It's called marriage and letting your spouse in. Don't be a stick in the mud.

Sara Shahi can currently be seen in the second season of seductive Netflix hit “Sex/Life”, and during an appearance on the “Not Skinny but Not Fat” podcast she opened up about how reading the script for the pilot episode gave her the “courage” to end her marriage to “Shameless” star Steve Howey.
“I was just questioning everything. As a wife and as a mom, you get told, ‘Well, but you have it good. You have it good,'” she said, as reported by People. “I just felt so unseen. … [‘Sex/Life’] gave me the courage to say, ‘I’m not happy. And I feel like we should as individuals have the right to be happy.'”
According to Shahi, the arrival of their children — William, 13, and twins Violet and Knox, 8 — led to some unforeseen changes in their marriage.

Two years after Netflix's steamy drama "Sex/Life" premiered in June 2021, the show returned for its highly anticipated second season on March 2. The show stars Sarah Shahi as a housewife and mother of two who is going through a midlife crisis as she longs for her more exciting past.

Eventually, the former lovers reunite, and Billie spends the show wrestling with her feelings between Cooper and Brad.

Harry and Helen realized how difficult dealing with teenagers is.
Since the series began, Harry and Harry have been in denial regarding their own children, and True Lies Season 1 Episode 5 gave them a dose of reality.
Dealing with their daughter Dana and later a teen hacker showed them they had lots to learn about parenting teenagers.
Many parents get engrossed in their careers and don't realize how quickly their teenager has matured. Both Dana and Harry had valid points.
How often have children called their parents at work, thinking it's the end of the world because their priorities aren't the same as real-world concerns?
While Dana was old enough to decipher the difference, she didn't know her dad was in the middle of a government mission.
She assumed he was working on a boring sales pitch that teens typically make fun of. She may respect Harry more if and when...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for True Lies Episode 4, “Rival Companions.”] Did Helen (Ginger Gonzaga) befriending a merciless assassin working with Omega in the latest episode of True Lies just save her husband Harry’s (Steve Howey) life? Matthew Lillard guest stars in “Rival Companions” as The Wolf, said assassin, but Helen meets and gets to know him as Nathan … and when she finds out what he does, she doesn’t exactly share Harry’s concerns. Rather, she reminds Nathan that he has a good heart and hopes he remembers that as he’s about to have Harry’s back during a mission. Harry, meanwhile, is worried about The Wolf being behind him since the assassin’s thing is shooting people in the back of the head. He thought about killing him, The Wolf admits, but then he heard those nice words from Helen. Besides, if he wanted to kill him, he continues, Harry would never see it coming.

If the first word that comes to mind when you think of Matthew Lillard guest starring on True Lies as a merciless contract assassin is “fun,” you’d be right. That’s exactly what the March 22 episode of the CBS drama brings. Lillard’s character comes in when the Omega Sector team must seek out his help after an international catastrophe occurs on live TV. “He’s a hoot,” Lillard tells TV Insider of The Wolf. Such is definitely the case when it comes to his interactions with everyone, especially Harry (Steve Howey) and Helen (Ginger Gonzaga). Below, he shares more about the guest spot. What did you initially know about The Wolf before you got the script? Matthew Lillard: I’m certainly familiar with True Lies, the movie. I was the fan of it back in, I guess, the ’90s. And then I am friends with Matt Nix, who’s the showrunner.

Adam Demos has garnered a significant fanbase for his role as Brad Simon in the streamer's sexy drama series "Sex/Life." Prior to his steamy role, Demos shared the screen with Christina Milian in Netflix's 2019 film "Falling Inn Love" and had a recurring role in the Lifetime drama series "Unreal." Though his acting career has only just started to blossom, Demos is on track to broaden his career more, and currently stars in the second season of "Sex/Life," which hit Netflix on March 2.
When he isn't in front of the camera, though, the Australian actor maintains a private personal life out of the spotlight. His current romance, however, does get special treatment. Similar to his character in "Sex/Life," Demos is head-over-heels for his costar, Sarah Shahi, who plays his love interest, Billie Connelly, in the series. After meeting on set in February 2020, the two quickly hit it off and confirmed...

Sex/Life star Sarah Shahi has opened up about the season two scene where she and co-star (and real-life boyfriend) Adam Demos couldn’t stop “giggling” during filming.
The erotic drama, which was first released on Netflix in 2021, follows Billie (Shahi), a restless married woman who begins reminiscing about her former lover Brad (Adam Demos).
The series returned for a second season on Thursday (2 March) where it topped Netflix’s TV chart in the UK, with one particularly Nsfw scene already getting fans talking.
However, Shahi, who is in a relationship with her on-screen love interest Demos, admitted that it was a different scene from the finale that left her red in the face.
*Warning: Spoilers for Sex/Life season two below*
In the final episode of season two, Billie and Brad finally come together after ending their respective relationships. They get married in the last scene, and it is then revealed that Billie is pregnant.
