NCIS: Tony & Ziva is a Paramount+ action-drama and the latest spinoff in the long-running NCIS franchise, reuniting two of the mothership series' most beloved characters. Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo reprise their roles as Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David, the will-they-won't-they fan favorites whose romance was one of the original show's defining threads. Created by John McNamara, the series finally reunites the pair years after each departed the flagship show.
The story finds Tony raising the couple's daughter, Tali, while running a security company in Paris. When he comes under attack, Tony and Ziva are thrown back together and forced to go on the run across Europe, trying to uncover who is targeting them while navigating their complicated history as parents and partners. The result blends globe-trotting, espionage-tinged action with the character-driven banter that made the duo so popular.
Premiering on Paramount+ in September 2025, the series capitalized on years of fan demand for a Tony and Ziva reunion and extended the NCIS brand into serialized, internationally set storytelling. Filmed in Europe, it leans on the star chemistry of Weatherly and de Pablo to carry a fresh chapter in one of television's most durable franchises. NCIS: Tony & Ziva streams on Paramount+.

Those who watched Punk'd in 2003 had witnessed the TV show made a star, and in 2012 we will see the star who makes the show. Whatever it was, Punk'd has never lacked any "starness": every season consisted of three pranks on three different celebrities. It is easy to calculate the total of eight seasons with 8 episodes on each return 192 celebrities who have become "victims" of Ashton Kutcher jokes. Good pool for the gaining the right connections in the world of show business, indeed, excepting the cases where the lack of a sense of humor of some stars endangered the health and lives of the show's host and its leading actors. In 2012, Justin Bieber opens score of punk'd celebrities, which means that the new version of the MTV series is beginning to attract the attention of almost billionth army of his fans from very first episode.
Hiring former fugitives to assist the U.S. Marshals with cleaning up the mean streets sounds like a far fetched idea but it works, at least on Breakout Kings. After all who would know better how to outwit the bad guys than former criminals themselves? They don't get off scott free exactly but do receive time off their sentences for aiding in the capture of crooks and as they get one month off their sentence for each criminal they help apprehend it makes sense that they work hard for their eventual release. Most of the "cons" do appreciate the opportunity to reduce their jail time and even get enthused with the prospect of turning over bad guys themselves. Charlie Duchamp (Laz Alonso from Fast & Furious, Avatar) is head of the task force and a previous member of the Criminal Program Analysis Department. A heart ailment kept him tied to his desk job but he still manages to break records getting the criminals reined in. Ray Zancanelli (played by Domenick Lombardozzi from Public Enemies, Miami Vice) lost his Marshals job due to a theft conviction. He works well with the criminal set because he knows the territory so well. Brooke Nevin (Sherman's Way, Infestation) is Julianne Simms, student of law enforcement who has mental issues keeping her from her full potential. This "mixed bag" of law enforcers work well together, keeping criminals in line most of the time.
Alex Meyers, played by Amanda Peet (Syriana, Griffin and Phoenix) is a no nonsense attorney who is recently divorced and in need of having her kitchen renovated.

Alex's husband was imprisoned for insider trading struggles to keep her life on track and raise her daughter Charlie Meyers (Joey King from Ghost Whisperer, Crazy, Stupid Love) is a typical 8 year old who is wise way beyond her years. Contractor Pete's father is played by Jeffrey Tambor from Arrested Development, The Hangover, a want to be musician who livens up things mostly because he is such a funny guy! With plenty of great comedy writing and people to deliver it well this show will keep audiences laughing for a long time!
Each of the wives of these basketball pros have something in common"¦ they have husbands who are high in stature as well as high profile in their lives. Being a celebrity wife is not all that easy as these "wives" can show us. Jealousy in the midst of "reality" television is common and we have seen it ever since the first episodes of Survivor. But these ladies seem to take it to another level with their backbiting and competition involving lifestyles most of us only dream about. Jennifer (Williams) defends her right to put on a new face for the latest season's shows and makes a vow to rise above all of that drama we see on the show. Shaunie (O'Neal) has a rather dramatic turn of events surrounding her latest birthday bash. Meanwhile, Evelyn (Lozada) has her own blog and tries to explain why laughing at Kenya Bell's boring speech is absolutely rude! Suzie (Ketcham) discusses food stamps and comments on her dramatic turn of events with Jennifer (Williams), blaming her attitude on alcohol (not that any of these fine ladies hit the bottle)! Lets hope they keep all this drama in the proper perspective, and the show keeps on fascinating many of us viewers!

When reality television star Khloe Kardashian married Lamar Odom he might have suspected his personal life would turn into a three ring circus but he went ahead with it anyway. Most likely because he loves the krazy Kardashian and just might love the limelight as well being he is a basketball superstar in his own right. Khloe & Lamar are a couple in love and in the early months of a marriage there is usually plenty of sex happening and this couple is definitely no exception. The big difference is the couple is doing it (well almost) on television! Khloe decides a sex swing is just what they need to have kinky fun and so she and her friend Malika try to install one in Khloe's bedroom with hysterical results! When she and hubby Lamar try out the contraption they discover she did not secure it to the ceiling very well and the couple and swing fall on top of the bed. This is but one example of the crazy plots involved in this reality sit-com. Others include Lamar handcuffing his bride to him to teach her a lesson on babying him. Plenty of laughs especially if you're already a Kardashian fan!
You can compare Army Wives the television show to soap operas. There are similarities just as there are in real life. Maybe more comparable with Desperate Housewives though because of all they experience in a typical day. One "wife" is an Army brat who is used to the vagabond lifestyle of the military. Another, a former police officer, hires herself out as a surrogate mom to make some extra cash. There is also a male version of the Army wife, himself a shrink whose wife has become the first African American lieutenant colonel. There is plenty of jealousy, sex, and out-ranking plus some poignant moments thanks to the stresses involved in military life. Starring Kim Delaney ( NYPD Blue, The O.C.), Brigid Branagh (Criminal Minds, 24), Sally Pressman (Criminal Minds, Shark), Sterling K Brown (Detroit 1-8-7, Harry's Law), and Catherine Bell (The Good Witch, JAG).

His captain (Laura Innes from ER, The Event) and his partner "Bird" Freeman (Steve Harris from Homicide: Life on the Streets, Law & Order) worry about Britten's sanity as he moves between two reality scenarios that are equally terrifying. Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter films, The Patriot) is detective Britten, a man who is Awake through his sorrow and visions. He wears colored rubber bands, each one different for the reality he sees.

Typical of the hugely popular TV series Survivor, we see men pitted against the women to see who can perform tasks better. But with Survivor: One World there is a new twist according to Jeff Probst, the shows host. While the competition will be men against women they will be allowed to cohabitate for the very first time. In other words, they can play together until the games begin, then it's every man "“ and women for themselves! Should prove to be interesting. The contestants can build a single camp, two camps, or not even have a designated camp, it's up to them to decide. And there will be even more reward challenges than before plus no Redemption Island. Some "Do it yourself challenges" as well as no judges and no Probst to interfere, they just need to figure things out for themselves. A new host steps up and proves to be equally as annoying as Jeff Probst ever was! Part of the challenges involves what to do with some of the props. Fun time in the jungle once again!
