A new year means new shows — and saying goodbye to your favorites. The 2023-2024 broadcast season is really just getting underway — with season premieres of scripted shows mostly in January, February, and March this year — but we already know more than a handful that will be signing off in the coming months. Below is the list of all the TV shows we’re saying goodbye to this year. ABC Station 19, seven seasons Not Dead Yet, two seasons AMC Orphan Black: Echoes, one season Parish, one season Apple TV+ Schmigadoon!, two seasons Constellation, one season Still Up, one season The Big Door Prize, two seasons Sunny, one season CBS Blue Bloods, 14 seasons Bob Hearts Abishola, five seasons S.W.A.T., seven seasons Young Sheldon, seven seasons So Help Me Todd, two seasons CSI: Vegas, three seasons NCIS: Hawai’i, three seasons The CW Superman & Lois, four seasons Walker, four seasons Disney+ Andor, two seasons Renegade Nell,...

Olivia Williams (The Sixth Sense), Luke Fetherston (Doctor Who), Callum Kerr (Hollyoaks) and Nuno Lopes (White Lines) have joined the Season 3 cast of Prime Video‘s fantasy epic series The Wheel of Time, starring Rosamund Pike, Madeleine Madden and Josha Stradowski.

Williams, Fetherston, Kerr and Lopes will portray the royal family of the kingdom of Andor. Andor is the largest, most populous, and most influential country within the heart of the Westlands, the fictional land depicted in Robert Jordan’s epic fantasy book series on which the television series is based.

Williams portrays Morgase Trakand, the Queen of Andor. Morgase did not inherit her throne. Rather, when the succession was left without an heir, she waged a brutal war against a half-dozen noble rivals, and thanks to her political savvy and utter ruthlessness, she won. She has sworn ever since to shield her daughter and heir, Elayne, from ever having to endure what she did…...

Olivia Williams is making the long, long trek from Wallach IX to Andor.

Currently starring on HBO’s Dune: Prophecy, Williams is among four cast additions for The Wheel of Time Season 3, which will premiere Thursday, March 15, 2025 on Prime Video.

Netflix’s fifth and final original Christmas movie for 2024 is now streaming, and this one is animated. But you’re still going to recognize a whole lot of the cast.

Written and directed by Richard Curtis, who brought fans “Love, Actually,” the film centers on a group of people in a small town in the UK, getting ready to celebrate Christmas. Like “Love, Actually,” the story is told via vignettes, jumping around between different groups and pairings.

And as you meet those groups and pairings, you’re definitely going to recognize some of those voices. Here’s who we have.

Netflix/Getty Images Santa (Brian Cox)

The big man himself is voiced by Brian Cox, who you likely know from his time on “Succession,” or films including “X2: X-Men United,” “Troy,” “Red,” “Zodiac” and “Trick ‘r Treat,” among many others.

Apple TV+’s notorious highwayman is back.

The streamer has greenlit a second season of Noel Fielding-starrer The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin, which will see another round of fantastical adventures for the lead.

In the irreverent retelling set in the 18th century, Turpin is the most famous but least likely of highway robbers, whose success is defined mostly by his charm, showmanship and great hair. Together with his gang of lovable rogues, Turpin rides the highs and lows of his new endeavors, including a brush with celebrity.

The first season also starred British comics including Ellie White, Dolly Wells and Mark Heap, and Apple said Season 2 will feature “a host of great British comedy talent.”

Written by Fielding, Richard Naylor and Jon Brittain, the series is produced by The Outlaws maker Big Talk Studios. It is executive produced by Kenton Allen, Fielding, Victoria Grew, Anthony Wilcox and Ben Palmer,...

Still Up is down for the count. Apple TV+ has cancelled the rom-com after a single season, Deadline reports.

The British series starred Antonia Thomas (The Good Doctor) and Craig Roberts (Red Oaks) as best friends Lisa and Danny. Bonded by insomnia, they stay connected to each other, late into the night, and found their way through a world of “wonderfully weird surprises” as their relationship deepened over time.

The series was quietly shelved earlier this year, we are told, having launched in September 2023.

The pair have no secrets, except their feelings for each other, and while the world sleeps they spend their long nights talking despite never meeting.

Fresh off the back of Sunday’s BAFTA win for Kat Sadler’s BBC comedy Such Brave Girls, head honcho Phil Clarke and comedy boss Jack Bayles are talking up the return of the sitcom in a landscape beset by budget woes and risk aversion that is nonetheless continuing to birth breakouts.

“The word we are getting from broadcasters is they want more traditional sitcoms with ‘A, B, C’ storylines and bigger characters,” Bayles tells Deadline. “We’ve been through this amazing era of drama and people have got so used to seeing that scale and ambition but trying to compete with that in half-hour,...

Lisa and Veggie finally had it out in Still Up Season 1 Episode 8, but did they say everything that needed to be said?

Veggie had to track Lisa down at Danny's because she left the house in the middle of the night once again.

We know Lisa has chronic insomnia and spends most nights on the phone with Danny, but exactly how often does she leave the house while Veggie and Poppy are sleeping?

From Veggie's point of view, that must be unnerving.

But this time, Veggie finally had the courage to ask Lisa what the hell was going on with them.

Lisa left the house to go to a storage unit that he didn't know she had to retrieve the hobby horse his father made that Lisa despises.

Although this is about so much more than a storage unit, it is a microcosm of their issues.

Veggie wanted Lisa to...

Amid reports of Mission: Impossible 8 possibly getting a name change following confirmation of its delayed premiere, fans mock the idea of a new title for the next spy thriller franchise installment.

Several movie enthusiasts took to X (formerly Twitter) to bash the idea of Dead Reckoning Part Two reportedly changing its name. Given the last sequel was titled Dead Reckoning Part One and the seventh and eighth films in the franchise are connected, fans are wondering why the Dead Reckoning Part Two title would change, believing the idea lacks logic. One X user proclaimed "it's a little too late for that" when responding to a post about the possible new title while another branded the idea the "single funniest franchise course correction ever" if it comes to fruition.

Apple TV+ has become one of the best streaming services, thanks to its limited but high-quality content, such as Ted Lasso, The Shrinking, and Jason Momoa's See. Furthermore, the streamer also strives to provide unique content to its subscribers, delving into genres such as comedy, horror, thriller, and more.

For example, the past couple of months have seen a slew of exciting TV shows, including Invasion, The Morning Show, Still Up, and Brie Larson's Lessons in Chemistry. At this point, the TV aficionados are convinced that they would at least receive one or two promising shows each month and look forward to them with bated breath. With that in mind, here are the best TV series coming to Apple TV+ in November 2023.

AppleTV's Still Up is a lot of things.

It's quirky, funny, endearing and heartfelt. It has characters I've grown to love.

But after Still Up Season 1 Episode 7, I have no idea where this is going.

It's clear that Veggie loves Lisa. And I'm fairly certain that Danny would jump at the chance to have a real relationship with Lisa that didn't center on late-night phone calls.

But what does Lisa want? I'm not even sure that Lisa knows.

And that's a problem because with only one installment left in Still Up Season 1, will she figure it out?

Things are tense between Lisa and Veg. Veggie is trying so hard to be helpful, and that's part of his personality. So, where someone else might find Veggie's sleepy-time tea and sleep-inducing yoga videos overbearing, Lisa does seem to realize that it comes from a place of love.

But Lisa hides a lot from Veggie,...

There is a sudden gap created between Lisa and Danny after the previous series of incidents, and they end up not talking to each other for almost a week. The heartstrings of Lisa are pulled a bit too hard by the director, John Addis, in the seventh episode of Still Up. She misses Danny too much and ends up at his house, ruining her own relationship with her fiancé, Veg. The 7th episode may be the beginning of the end of some relationships and revelations. Still Up Episode 7 focuses on how Lisa tries mending things with Danny and ends up messing things up further in the process. Will Lisa ever stop finding excuses to talk to Danny and just reveal her feelings? Will the return of Amy affect Danny’s relationship with Lisa? Let us find the answers to these questions!

Spoilers Ahead

What Makes Lisa Go To The Storage?...

She's back!

Did you ever think Danny would see Amy again after their disastrous date on Still Up Season 1 Episode 3?

This is the woman who was going to call it quits on Danny after their first date because she thought Lisa was an ex he was still hung up on, and who could blame her given the number of phone calls Danny took from Lisa that night. 

And that was before Danny chopped her finger off in his door! As if that wasn't horrific enough, then he popped the detached joint into his mouth!

In Danny's defense, the finger severing was a complete accident. As for the rest, he was told that it was a good way of preserving the digit in the hopes of reattachment.

So, is it endearing that Danny would do something so gross to help Amy keep her finger, or simply stomach-turning?

We're leaning toward the entire incident being nauseating,...

Danny battled through his agoraphobia during Still Up Season 1 Episode 6 and he did it for Lisa.

But will realizing that Lisa plans to marry Veggie send him back into his home for another three years?

Or will Amy be willing to convince Danny to leave the protection of his safe zone and explore the world?

When you think about it, the women in Danny's life have a profound effect on him.

Danny's anxiety attacks and agoraphobia began after he and Chloe broke up, and three years later, the hope of reuniting with her had him applying for a job in Los Angeles.

It says something about Danny that he's viewed their breakup as both their fault even though Chloe cheated on him.

The few times Danny has talked about Chloe, it's clear that he has an idealized view of her. Did discovering from Lisa that Chloe cheated on him with...

Danny is ready to help Lisa under any circumstances, even if that means walking out of the house in the middle of the night. It is worth mentioning how in the 6th episode of Still Up, Danny overcomes his social anxiety and steps out of the house, just to go and help a drunk Lisa. How the thought of Veg proposing to Lisa affects Danny in a subtle manner until he again comes across Amy in the middle of the road also gains a significant point. Danny’s feelings have grown slowly, but they have bloomed for sure, as we can see him zoning out after pondering what Lisa says. Will Danny be able to help Lisa in her vulnerable state? Will Amy’s re-arrival affect Danny’s feelings for Lisa? Let’s find out!

Still Up is a high-concept dramedy on Apple TV+ that tells the story of two insomniacs who connect through late-night video calls. The show showcases Apple TV+'s focus on high-concept ideas, as it joins other series like Schmigadoon! and The Big Door Prize. The humor and unique storytelling of Still Up make it an entertaining and captivating series for viewers looking for novel concepts and ideas.

Still Up is a high-concept dramedy from Apple TV+ with a unique premise. The series tells the story of two insomniacs, each with their own full lives, who build a rapport through their late-night communication. The series stars Antonia Thomas (The Good Doctor) as Lisa and Craig Roberts (Red Oaks) as Danny, whose budding relationship is built largely on late-night video calls. What could turn into a gimmick becomes the beating heart of Still Up, as Danny and Lisa’s nocturnal tendencies spill into their daytime lives.

When I saw the title of Still Up Season 1 Episode 5, I had one thought. What the hell is Veggie Veggie Bing Bong?

After watching this installment from beginning to end, I still can't say I know anything besides it's a ridiculous game made up by Veggie's family that involves throwing ham at the loser.

What type of insanity is that?

I suppose we should be grateful they're only flinging slices of the lunch meat variety of ham at Lisa's face. If it were actual ham steaks, the poor woman could have gotten hurt.

Would Lisa have still sat there and taken it just to make Veggie happy? Maybe. And that's what was so disturbing about this camping trip.

Lisa hated camping but was willing to go on this trip because she wanted to spend family time with Poppy and Veggie.

But when Veggie heard "family time," he didn't think of just him,...

A lot happens over the course of 26 minutes in the fifth episode of Still Up. The difference in opinions between Lisa and Veg is seen when she thinks that they were going to spend some quality time at a camping site together, but Veg invites his parents. We see her vexed about participating in small talks and silly games with Veg’s parents. Despite being on a camping trip with her family, she does not seem to be enjoying her time there, as she seems to be burdened by the expectations of her mother-in-law, Christine. She seems to be more interested in what Danny is doing at home. On the other hand, Danny is stuck at his home with a builder, who has been telling him about his relationship problems, and he patiently puts up with it. How he helps Lisa win the game of ‘Veggie Veggie Bing Bong’ is...

"Still Up" is the new Brit-produced comedy TV series created by Steve Burge and Natalie Walter, starring Antonia Thomas and Craig Roberts, now streaming on Apple TV+:

Lisa checks into a sleep clinic, Danny babysits a dog, and a bombshell is dropped about someone's relationship that I never saw coming on Still Up Season 1 Episode 4.

We'll start at the sleep clinic since it is the title of this installment.

Lisa checks herself in, and you can feel the wave of relief that rolls off Veggie. Living with someone who is up all night all the time can't be much fun.

Although Lisa's inability to take the sleep study seriously is comical, it actually hurts to know that Veggie is out there hoping that this will bring them both some relief.

Little does he know that Lisa can't even put her phone away for one night.

This makes me wonder, does Lisa really want to find a cure for her insomnia? In some ways, her insomnia gives her an excuse to live a whole other life after Veggie...

The two worlds of Lisa and Danny are so different yet so similar! Lisa worries about losing the time that she gets with Danny once he moves to Los Angeles for work. She tries her best to convince him not to go there, and in the process, she muddles things up. There are a lot of events that take place in this episode! Danny takes in a neighbor’s dog, Daisy. who has similar traits as that of him. He also gets to know certain things about his past relationships from Lisa that he had no idea about. Lisa creates a mess at the sleep clinic by defying all the rules and is escorted off the property. Does the sleep clinic really help Lisa? Does she really want to get rid of her insomnia? We are yet to find that out in season 1, episode 4 of Still Up.

Apple TV+, while not as popular as Netflix or Disney+ among film and TV lovers, is an excellent streaming service that consistently provides quality content to its subscribers. While the additions are scanty, with less than ten films and TV shows released on the platform monthly, it compensates with the quality.

For example, Apple TV+ released four exciting TV shows in September, including The Changeling, which, while confusing the viewers initially as to where it is heading, is setting up for an exhilarating journey in the coming episodes. So, if you're looking for more TV shows that Apple TV+ has to offer, you're in the right place. Here are the best TV shows releasing on Apple TV+ in October 2023.

Invasion Season 2 (Continuing)

Invasion, like many other Apple TV+ series, is not your traditional sci-fi show that involves epic battles with aliens but rather a more cerebral take on the genre.

Lisa and Danny are best friends who have issues. And those issues have nothing to do with their insomnia.

As a matter of fact, I wonder if their strange relationship somehow incentivizes them to be up all night.

But it all seems harmless enough during Still Up Season 1 Episode 1 as Lisa chats away with Danny and runs out to the pharmacy to get her daughter, Poppy, some calamine lotion for her chicken pox.

I couldn't help but wonder if they have the chicken pox vaccine in the UK because I don't know any kids who get chicken pox anymore here in the US.

But I digress.

The bigger issue is Lisa's slightly askew moral compass.

When Poppy first showed symptoms of the illness, instead of taking the child to the doctor or putting her to bed, Lisa made a special sheep mask Poppy could wear on her class trip so...

Bound by chronic insomnia, best friends Danny and Lisa have created their own weird world in the late hours when things are at their weirdest. During the day, though, they live in a world apart.

Does distance really make the heart grow fonder? Still Up, is streaming on Apple TV and it is quite evident from the series that the distance has been making the hearts of both Lisa and Danny grow fonder. Danny has been giving the smallest details of his day to day life to Lisa and talking to her in a manner as if she were present in his apartment. The third episode focuses on the efforts that both of them put into each other rather than elsewhere. They love each other’s company and are attracted to each other secretly but are reluctant to accept it, or maybe they are just oblivious to their own feelings. Lisa is shown to prefer the company of Danny over her husband. Danny has also been reciprocating by taking all her calls and returning her texts, even while on a date with Amy. Just when...

CinemaBlind’s Review – 80%

Not sleeping in the is a big problem for many people but if they had a best friend who is also up with them, could it be really fun. The new Apple TV+ series Still Up answers that question through a sweet story about two friends Lisa and Danny suffering from insomnia, who are connected mostly through video calls.

Created by Steve Burge and Natalie Walter, Still Up has a small cast and it does a good job of focusing on the important storylines through them while also establishing their eccentricities and wants in the story seamlessly. We never feel that any of the characters in the series are out of place or forced in the story.

People tend to become clumsy when they are dealing with a lot of hurdles, they say. Says who? Well, I am not quite sure about that, but Danny and Lisa have been tackling a lot of stuff, even though their lives may appear simple from a bird’s-eye view. Still Up Epiosde 2 is a subtle peek into the lives of both Lisa and Danny and the way they are dealing with things. The pigeon stuck in Danny’s house, clumsily flying around and finally hitting the wall, depicts his own state of life. Danny has been dealing with the issue of garnering the pleasure of being with a woman, and Lisa, on the contrary, has just been struggling to put up with her seemingly perfect life. Steve Burge and Natalie Walter, in their series Still Up, have been aiming to make things more interesting for the audiences with each passing episode.

Would you mind falling in love with a person you connect with instantly and talk to for hours over regular late-night video calls? The slow spark between Danny and Lisa builds up at the very beginning of the series Still Up without their realizing it. The romantic comedy thrives on the worlds of the two friends who are insomniacs, catching up with each other on routine late-night video calls. Created by Steve Burge and Natalie Walter, the handling of the major characters has been left to the deft hands of Craig Roberts and Antonia Thomas. The comic-buildup on romance is sudden and unexpected at the end of the episode when the characters match on the dating app, before which everything seemed to be a platonic conversation between the two friends.

Spoiler Alert

The bond between Danny and Lisa grows at a slow pace. But it’s sure to take greater turns in the future.

There’s a point midway through When Harry Met Sally when the two leads, both unable to sleep, find themselves on the phone. The actual conversation isn’t about much of anything — past relationships, what’s on TV, the ending of Casablanca. But what comes through loud and clear is the connection between them, so easy and comfortable that any fool can see they’re meant to be together.

Apple TV+’s Still Up is a whole series of When Harry Met Sally phone calls, placed between insomniac besties Lisa (Antonia Thomas) and Danny (Craig Roberts). Like their big-screen forebears, they fancy themselves “just mates”; like them, it’s evident to nearly everyone around them, us included, that they’re destined for romance. All that’s missing, alas, is When Harry Met Sally‘s most crucial ingredient: the magical chemistry to make us root for them to get there against all odds.

Not sleeping in the is a big problem for many people but if they had a best friend who is also up with them, could it be really fun.
