Fans of weird and eerie German movies, rejoice! Your Halloween spooky viewing has arrived, and it's carved out a steady spot in Netflix's Top 10 trending watches. "Old People" is German-Romanian filmmaker Andy Fetscher's horror thriller wherein the old eat the young, bludgeon them, and sometimes vomit on them. It's the sort of concept that M. Night Shyamalan would have a field day with, but Fetscher adds more chaos and a cadre of monsters at the door.
A title card at the opening reads:
In times of yore, an avenging spirit was thought to inhabit old people. A dark power that took possession of the frailest members of the clan and drive them into a seemingly blind rage.
That's right – this is functionally an elderly rage-zombie movie. What a time to be alive.
At its core, the story focuses on generational disconnect by observing lonely elders, excluded from local festivities,...

Sarah Michelle Gellar is glad that NBC passed on a TV series based on her 1999 film “Cruel Intentions.”
The actress discussed the reboot during a recent interview with The New York Times. The pilot was ordered in February 2016, but the network had passed on the series by October of the same year. Gellar would have reprised her iconic role as the manipulative Kathryn Merteuil.
But, ultimately, she agreed that the series wasn’t a fit for network television.
“Nothing against NBC, but ‘Cruel Intentions’ is straight streaming,” she said. “On the first day, I was like, ‘This isn’t working.’ It’s just not a network show. And if it is a network show, it’s not my ‘Cruel Intentions.’ So, I was actually grateful.”

It's been a little under a year since ABC canceled The Baker and the Beauty after a single season.
The news shocked fans of the series, who pressed on with a campaign to get the series picked up at another destination.
But, unfortunately, the stars did not align in the soapy drama's favor, and it was left in the TV graveyard.
Now, with The Baker and the Beauty Season 1 emerging as a force to be reckoned with on Netflix, a second season is possible.
"I think I can speak for everyone when I say we would love to do a Season 2," series creator Dean Georgaris told Newsweek.
"We actually had the season all mapped out, including a great guest-star character arc."

Nathalie Kelley isn't letting The Baker and the Beauty go without a fight. After ABC pulled the plug on her dramedy, fans launched a petition urging another network or streaming platform to pick up the series. Kelley and other stars of the show have supported the petition which had over 115,000 signatures as of press time. Each week the series got less than 3 million viewers according to Nielsen ratings. In a statement, Kelley, who also starred in the first season of the Dynasty remake, said ABC's decision to cancel the show was "tone deaf."

The Baker and the Beauty may be canceled, but Nathalie Kelley has released a new statement on the matter, conceding that the decision to end the drama is "extremely tone deaf."
"We are seeing now more than ever that representation is important for Black and brown people of color. How we are represented on our television shows determines how society sees us, and the empathy and support they will grant our communities," Kelley said.
"When we are constantly depicted as narcos and maids, we can’t expect to find favor with voters when they go to the polls and elect leaders who will decide on the fate of immigrants."
“Baker and the Beauty is a show that depicts Latin families as warm, lovable, full of joy and compassion and humor,” Kelley adds.
“A cancellation by ABC means that there are now no shows on the networks with a Latinx cast.

As The Baker and the Beauty Save the Show campaign continues to gain momentum, ABC’s decision to cancel the romantic comedy-drama also has mobilized the Hollywood Latinx community who are voicing their support for efforts to find a new home for the show.
In an open letter alongside a link to a petition in support of the show finding a new home, The Baker and the Beauty star Nathalie Kelley spoke of the cancelation of the rare series with a Latinx cast, its legacy of representation and its timeliness as the type of show that is “necessary during these times”
In an earlier version of the letter that was subsequently retracted but has been published online, Kelley called the cancellation “an extremely tone deaf decision” “at a time when the public is marching in the streets demanding representation and diversity.”

Don't count The Baker and the Beauty out just yet.
Despite ABC canceling the series after a single season earlier this week, fans are ready to find the series a new home.
But before we get to that, we finally have some insight into why the series was canceled prematurely.
ABC boss Karey Burke revealed to Deadline that the primary issue was the ratings.
“The Baker and the Beauty is a show I was personally very fond of, it’s a very sweet and hopeful and inspired and optimistic show that I wish we had been able to find a bigger audience for,” she told the outlet.
The Baker and the Beauty Season 1 averaged 2.5 million total viewers and a 0.5 rating in the demo, making it ABC's lowest-rated drama.
The series did get a bump in delayed viewing, but it was not enough for the show to continue at ABC.

ABC on Monday opted not to renew The Baker and the Beauty two weeks after the romantic comedy-drama based on an Israeli format finished its nine-episode freshman run.
While the original series has been one of the highest-rated scripted series ever in Israel, its U.S. adaptation did not fair as well, ranking as one of ABC’s lowest rated series this past season. But it developed a passionate core fanbase who have mounted a Save the Show campaign with a petition that has been trending and has already crossed the 60K signatures mark, as well as a fundraiser to support the effort.
Meanwhile, I hear that there are plans in the works at the company behind the series, Keshet Studios, to shop it. The Baker and the Beauty star Nathalie Kelley got fans’ hopes up following the cancellation news on Monday, tweeting that “their loss will be someone else’s gain.

ABC on Monday night announced the status of its remaining bubble series, and while it was good news for one of them, it was bad news for the other.
The Baker and the Beauty has been canceled after a nine-episode freshman season.
Based on the Israeli series, the series starred Victor Rasuk as Daniel Garcia, a regular Joe who works at his parents’ Cuban bakery in Miami.
On the night that his girlfriend Vanessa proposes to him by singing Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” in the middle of a fancy restaurant, Daniel bumps into the beautiful Noa Hamilton (Dynasty‘s Nathalie Kelley), a model-turned-fashion mogul who is coming off a highly publicized split with her cheating actor boyfriend.
An unlikely romance between the baker and the beauty kicks off, but unfortunately, the series went largely ignored in traditional ratings.
It averaged around 2.5 million viewers and a 0.5 rating in the all-important 18-49 demographic.

“For Life” has been renewed for a second season at ABC, Variety has learned, while “The Baker and the Beauty” has been canceled after one season.
Inspired by the life of Isaac Wright Jr., “For Life” is a fictional serialized drama about an imprisoned man, Aaron Wallace (Nicholas Pinnock), who becomes a lawyer litigating cases for other inmates while fighting to overturn his own life sentence for a crime he didn’t commit.
“It has been a profound honor working with Isaac Wright, Jr. and Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson to create a show that, through the prism of Isaac’s experience in our broken criminal justice system, has been able to highlight the racial inequality that plagues this country,” said series creator Hank Steinberg. “The show’s renewal will allow us to continue to do that and I am extremely grateful to Sony Pictures Television and ABC for all of their support.

The Flash gets a creepy-crawly blast from the past when the CW drama returns with its first new episode in five weeks.
In the episode “So Long and Goodnight,” airing Tuesday, April 21 at 8/7c, Black Hole hires the suuuuuper-bendy Rag Doll (returning guest star Troy James) to kill Joe. But when Joe refuses to head into Witsec and stop investigating Carver (guest star Eric Nenninger), it appears — as seen in this first batch of new episodic photos in what feels like far, far too long — that someone very near and dear to the top cop will land in the mysterious organization’s cross hairs.

Now that the dust has settled on Nathalie Kelley's exit from Dynasty, the actress has opened up about her controversial departure from the primetime sudser.
If you watch Dynasty online, you know Kelley's iteration of Cristal was seemingly killed off on Dynasty Season 1 Episode 22.
The actress later said that "I've got my life back," leading many to wonder whether they were being tricked and that Cristal would pop back up.
However, those hopes were dashed when it was announced that Ana-Brenda Contreras was stepping into the role as "the real Cristal."
Contreras later exited after the second season, with Daniella Alonso drafted in to replace her. That means there have been three Cristals over the course of three seasons.
In a new interview with TVInsider while promoting The Baker and the Beauty, Kelly shed light on her exit fro Dynasty, noting that it was more of a creative challenge than she anticipated.

As fans of the CW reboot will recall, Kelley played Cristal for the drama’s entire first season, only for the actress to suddenly announce during the summer hiatus that she wouldn’t be returning for Season 2. (“I’ve got my life back,” she notably said at the time.)
