Fantasy shows ask a lot from the audience. They want them to remember entirely new worlds, complicated magic systems, and strange creatures. When that balance between exposition and storytelling goes wrong, watching a show can start to feel like homework. When it works, though, there is nothing easier to get lost in.

Netflix has produced plenty of fantasy series over the years, but only a handful have managed to make their worlds feel spectacularly grand without making the audience work too hard to understand them. These are the shows where the lore, characters, and story all pull in the same direction, and every new episode gives the audience another reason to stay inside that world a little longer. Here are such Netflix fantasy series that unfold perfectly without a single flaw.

‘The Dragon Prince’ (2018–2024)

The Dragon Prince wastes no time throwing its young heroes into a conflict that is way too big for them to understand. The fantasy series is set in a world divided between the human kingdoms and the magical land of Xadia, where elves, dragons, and humans have spent generations seeing each other as enemies. That begins to change when human princes Callum (Jack DeSena) and Ezran (Sasha Rojen) discover that the supposedly dead Dragon Prince is actually still alive. Instead of letting another war begin, they join Moonshadow Elf assassin Rayla (Paula Burrows) on a journey to bring him home.

The setup is easy enough to understand, but The Dragon Prince keeps expanding its lore with every episode. The show’s magic system is carefully built out, but the fact that it is rooted in history and prejudice is what gives it weight. Netflix gave the story a full seven-season arc, which allowed the writers to explore every relationship, rivalry, and threat that Callum and Ezran came across on their quest. What begins as a straightforward adventure featuring three unlikely friends eventually turns into a much larger fantasy saga that immerses the audience until the very last minute.

‘Arcane’ (2021–2024)

Arcane is a League of Legends spin-off, but it works because the audience can come in with practically no understanding of the game and still become completely invested in its world. The series takes place between the wealthy city of Piltover and the struggling underground district of Zaun, but its much bigger conflict begins with two sisters. Vi (Hailee Steinfeld) and Powder (Ella Purnell) grow up together in Zaun until one disastrous night tears them apart. Years later, Vi returns to find that the little sister she remembers has become Jinx, a dangerous and deeply unstable figure caught in the growing conflict between the two cities.

That relationship gives Arcane its most important emotional beats. The political tension between Piltover and Zaun keeps rising, but nearly every major development eventually circles back to the people caught in the middle, including the two sisters. However, what makes Arcane truly worth watching is how intentional every episode feels. By the end, it is clear that Arcane always knew where it was going, with every part of the story building naturally toward its fitting close.

‘Locke & Key’ (2020–2022)

Locke & Key builds its fantasy around a pretty simple concept, but it uses that as the foundation for a much bigger story filled with magic and increasingly dangerous family secrets. The series follows siblings Tyler (Connor Jessup), Kinsey (Emilia Jones), and Bode Locke (Jackson Robert Scott) along with their mother Nina (Darby Stanchfield), as they move into Keyhouse, their father’s mysterious childhood home, after he is murdered. Now, it doesn’t take long for Bode to discover that the house is filled with magical keys, each capable of doing something completely different.

One can open a door to anywhere in the world, another lets people enter their own minds, and the deeper the siblings dig, the more they realize their father knew far more about Keyhouse than he ever told them. That constant discovery gives Locke & Key an almost irresistible sense of curiosity. Every new key creates another possibility, but the series is smart enough to make sure that all this magic ties back to the Locke family’s larger story about grief. Even when the threat grows beyond Keyhouse, it still comes from the same secrets the family is trying to understand, especially once a dangerous entity begins hunting the keys for itself. That emotional grounding keeps the fantasy from ever feeling random or disconnected from the characters, and makes every episode of Locke & Key feel essential to the larger story.

‘Sweet Tooth’ (2021–2024)

Sweet Tooth drops viewers into a completely broken world, and that is the show’s smartest decision. The series takes place after a deadly pandemic known as the Sick has torn society apart. It has also resulted in children being born as hybrids, with both human and animal features. The story follows Gus (Christian Convery), a half-human, half-deer boy who has spent most of his life hidden away from the outside world. When he finally leaves home, he joins Tommy Jepperd (Nonso Anozie) on a journey to find his mother and learn where hybrids like him actually came from. Now, the world around Gus is obviously incredibly cruel, but Sweet Tooth never lets the darkness of its narrative take over the whole show.

The audience experiences ruined cities and dangerous strangers through Gus’ eyes and his sense of wonder that keeps the story surprisingly hopeful. Every episode offers the audience answers that tie the protagonist’s personal story to a much bigger question about the very future of humans and hybrids. His search eventually takes him from Yellowstone all the way to Alaska, where his mother Birdie (Amy Seimetz) has been searching for the same answers. The question of where Gus came from gradually collides with the mystery behind the Sick, and the way these two come together makes the final season feel like the natural payoff to everything the show has been building from the start.

‘Shadow and Bone’ (2021–2023)

Shadow and Bone, based on the novel by Leigh Bardugo, is set in the kingdom of Ravka, which has quite literally been split into two by the Shadow Fold, a huge wall of darkness filled with deadly creatures known as Volcra. Anyone who crosses it is pretty much gambling with their life. The story follows ordinary cartographer Alina Starkov (Jessie Mei Li), who discovers that she is a Sun Summoner, a rare Grisha capable of creating light and possibly the only person powerful enough to destroy it. That discovery brings her under the wing of General Kirigan (Ben Barnes), the mysterious leader of Ravka’s magical army whose interest in Alina quickly becomes far more complicated than it first appears.

That story is only half of it, though. Shadow and Bone also brings Kaz Brekker (Freddy Carter), Inej Ghafa (Amita Suman), and Jesper Fahey (Kit Young) from Bardugo’s Six of Crows books into the story much earlier than the novels do. This gives the show a second storyline built around criminals, heists, and the streets of Ketterdam. Shadow and Bone Season 1 even creates an entirely new prequel adventure for the Crows so they can exist alongside Alina without simply copying their book’s plot. That decision makes the Grishaverse feel much bigger almost immediately. There’s no denying that the show has a lot of mythology to juggle, but its biggest strength is making its huge world feel exciting rather than exhausting through impeccably intentional storytelling.

‘The Umbrella Academy’ (2019–2024)

Image via Netflix

The Umbrella Academy takes the superhero formula and builds it around an extremely dysfunctional family. The story begins years earlier when Reginald Hargreeves (Colm Feore) adopts a group of mysteriously born children and trains them to become superheroes. In the present day, his death brings the estranged siblings back under the same roof. Luther (Tom Hopper), Diego (David Castañeda), Allison (Emmy Raver-Lampman), Klaus (Robert Sheehan), and Viktor (Elliot Page) are all living separate lives when their brother Five (Aidan Gallagher) suddenly returns after spending years trapped in the future, with the knowledge that the world is going to end in just a few days.

From here, The Umbrella Academy could have easily turned into yet another story about superheroes preventing an apocalypse. However, here, the impending apocalypse is never separate from the Hargreeves themselves. Their childhood trauma, resentment toward Reginald, and inability to communicate keep creating problems that no superpowers can easily fix. Yet through every reset and ridiculous disaster, the show keeps returning to the same idea that saving the world is usually easier for the Hargreeves than figuring out how to be a family. That gives all the timeline chaos a surprisingly consistent center and makes the final sacrifice feel like the natural conclusion to four seasons of the siblings accidentally breaking reality and then trying to put it back together.

‘The Sandman’ (2022–2025)

Image via Netflix

The Sandman brings the idea of a nightmare to life in the most interesting way possible. The show follows Dream (Tom Sturridge), the immortal ruler of the Dreaming, who is accidentally captured by occultists and kept imprisoned for more than a century. By the time he finally escapes, his kingdom has fallen apart, several of his tools have been stolen, and dangerous creations like the Corinthian (Boyd Holbrook) are loose in the waking world. Dream’s first order of business is to rebuild what he lost, but that quickly sends him through Hell, human dreams, ancient myths, and conflicts with his own immortal family.

Now, what really makes The Sandman stand out is how comfortable the show is changing shape from one episode to the next. The show takes detours to the point where certain episodes barely focus on Dream. Instead, they follow ordinary humans, immortals, and other beings whose lives have been shaped by Dream and the world he controls. None of that feels pointless because every storyline reiterates the fact that the central character is powerful, but incredibly subtle, distant, and terrible at accepting change. Ultimately, The Sandman is not really about whether Dream can defeat something stronger than him, but whether he can actually learn from the damage he has caused.

‘Wednesday’ (2022–Present)

Image via Netflix

Wednesday brings the creepy, kooky, mysterious, and spooky Addams Family back to the screen but puts a spin on the story by turning the focus on Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega). The series begins with Wednesday being sent to attend Nevermore Academy, a school for supernatural outcasts where she finally gets the space to exist outside her parents’ shadow. Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones), Gomez (Luis Guzmán), and the rest of the Addams family are still important to the story, but the show is ultimately built around Wednesday figuring out who she is when she is no longer just the strange daughter in an already strange family.

That makes the series an easy entry point for viewers who did not grow up with earlier versions of The Addams Family while giving longtime fans of the franchise a reason to tune in for more. Nevermore itself introduces an entirely new group of werewolves, sirens, psychics, and other outcasts, while Wednesday’s friendship with Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers) gives the character a relationship that belongs completely to this version of the story. The murder mystery surrounding the school gives Wednesday something interesting to chase, but the real fun comes from watching such an iconic character move through a world specifically designed for her. Wednesday keeps enough of the Addams Family‘s gothic humor and macabre personality to feel familiar, but gives the franchise a younger, more modern identity that clearly resonated very well with the audience.

Dancing With the Stars pro Rylee Arnold has a secret weapon in her corner of the ballroom — her sister Lindsay Arnold.

“I honestly think I’ve grown up as a dancer, so those critiques make so much sense to me,” Rylee, 21, exclusively told Us after the judges offered feedback about her choreography during the Tuesday, September 22, live show. “As a dancer, like, I can always just grow from it.”

Rylee also noted that Lindsay, 32, is similarly “always there to give [her] that positive feedback.”

“I mean, Connor [Wood] knows I call her all the time in rehearsals, and I’m like, ‘Do you like this dance move? Is this good?’” she said on Tuesday. “So, she’s a part of this whole process for me, and she’s the best.”

Courtesy of Rylee Arnold/Instagram Rylee Arnold is officially off the market — and completely smitten — after going public with her and Walker Lyons’ romance. “Is this a hard launch?? 🤭❤️‍🔥,” Arnold wrote via Instagram in October 2024 alongside several photos featuring the USC football player at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The Dancing With […]

Season 35 marks Rylee’s fourth as a pro on the ballroom dance competition. Lindsay, for her part, appeared on the dance competition for 10 seasons before her 2022 exit to focus on her family. (The former mirrorball champ shares three young children with her husband, Sam Cusick.)

In addition to Lindsay, Rylee has the sweet support of her boyfriend, Walker Lyons, who recently joined the BYU Cougars football team after playing for the USC Trojans.

“He’s been awesome. I feel like we’re both, just, thriving in our lives right now, which is really amazing. He’s doing so good in football, and I’m here,” Rylee gushed to Us. “It’s definitely hard being long distance, but we call all the time. We’re super supportive, and we’re there for each other. So, it’s great.”

While Lyons, 22, is busy as a collegiate athlete, Rylee is focused on Wood, 31, and their mirrorball odds. The pair performed a tango set to Sombr’s “12 to 12” on Tuesday that earned a total score of 15 out of 30.

“Oh, my gosh, like, from week one to now, you have grown so much,” Rylee told Wood of his dance progress. “He is applying himself, and genuinely, like, we started from square one. Like, he has never had experience with anything like this. Even after our dance tonight, when he was like, ‘Oh, like, a couple mishaps,’ I’m like, ‘Honestly, I’m shocked there wasn’t more.’ He has never done this before, and he is going out, and he is being so confident and so amazing, and I’m genuinely so proud of him.”

Rylee Arnold wants nothing more than her older sister Lindsay Arnold to make her triumphant Dancing With the Stars return. “I think there is probably a future with Dancing With the Stars and Lindsay,” Rylee, 19, told Us Weekly exclusively on Wednesday, September 4, after the show’s season 33 cast was announced. “I think that […]

The judges were particularly critical of Wood’s footwork in the tango, but the comedian took the note in stride.

“I do defer to the judges there, and I like the feedback,” he told Us. “I think the judges’ scores are fair, and I respect them. They know the dance; they may not know our choreography, but if something’s obvious, they have the expertise to chime in on that, so I appreciate the feedback in that way.”

Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced movie mogul, was sentenced in Manhattan to 15 years in prison on Wednesday. The sentencing is for sexually assaulting one-time TV production assistant Miriam Haley in 2006 and followed a legal odyssey spanning more than six years. His 2020 conviction was overturned by New York’s highest court. However, a second jury found Weinstein guilty again at a retrial last year.

Harvey Weinstein Plans To Appeal Latest Sentence

Once among the most powerful figures in the entertainment industry, Harvey Weinstein was an Oscar-winning producer. His hits included ‘Shakespeare in Love,’ ‘Pulp Fiction’ and ‘Chocolat.’ But his downfall came quickly after sexual assault allegations in 2017 set off the #MeToo movement.

Harvey Weinstein, who is 74, is expected to appeal and maintains that he never raped or sexually assaulted anyone. He is now likely to remain behind bars well into his 80s. Seated in a wheelchair, he was quickly moved out of the courtroom after the sentencing. Meanwhile, some of his accusers hugged and brushed away tears.

The victim, Miriam Haley, is now 49. She is a former entertainment producer now working in advertising. Haley said she met Harvey Weinstein through a mutual connection and worked briefly as a production assistant on ‘Project Runway.’ She said she accepted an invitation to visit Weinstein’s apartment and after chatting briefly, he lunged to kiss her, she testified. She said she rebuffed him. But he grabbed her, forcibly backed her into a bedroom and sexually assaulted her, ignoring her pleas to stop. She recalled Weinstein asking, “Don’t you think we’re much closer now?” after either the alleged assault or a subsequent occasion when she says she had unwanted, but not forced, sex with him. Haley also recalled telling him after the second encounter, “You know you can’t keep doing this.”

Weinstein & His Victim Both Spoke In Court

Harvey Weinstein faced up to 25 years in prison for sexually assaulting Miriam Haley at his Manhattan apartment in 2006. He has already served more than six years as his case cycled through the criminal justice system. Haley gave her account of the assault at two trials, and again addressed the court on Wednesday.

“Having been sexually assaulted by Harvey Weinstein has had a devastating effect on my life and sense of security that may never go away. Making the decision to speak up will have me looking over my shoulder for years to come,” Miriam Haley said.

“It’s a life sentence for me,” she added. Minutes later, Weinstein apologized while reiterating his innocence.

“Reflecting on all that has happened since 2017 has helped me recognize how my past conduct has negatively affected others. I live with many regrets and sincerely apologize to anyone I have affected with my actions,” he said.

Some of his accusers who were in court shook their heads while he spoke. Meanwhile, defense lawyer Jacob Kaplan wanted three more years on top of the six years Harvey Weinstein already served. Kaplan said a longer sentence would make it more likely that Weinstein dies in prison. Weinstein has been in the hospital six times since 2025, Kaplan said. He’s dealt with health obstacles like blood cancer, congestive heart failure, and kidney issues.

Judge, Victim & Her Lawyer Weigh In After Harvey’s Sentencing 

Judge Curtis Farber said Harvey Weinstein was once a king in the movie industry, “but recognition for these achievements will pale in comparison to what you did.” He said Weinstein is now known as “a sexual predator, the literal face of the MeToo movement.”

Additionally, the judge said Weinstein treated women as “mere objects to be played with and discarded” and still hasn’t accepted responsibility, portraying himself as a victim during jailhouse interviews.

Miriam Haley afterward said she was happy with the sentence, while saying it’s clear that Weinstein has not acknowledged what he did. “I think he still feels entitled, and that’s part of the problem,” she said.

Miriam Haley’s lawyer, Gloria Allred, rejected any suggestion that Weinstein’s sentencing means the MeToo era is over. “Women are empowered in a way they have never been before,” she said.

Why Is Harvey Weinstein Being Sentenced A Second Time?

Weinstein was originally sentenced to 23 years in prison after a jury convicted him of assaulting Miriam Haley and raping an aspiring actress, Jessica Mann, in 2013. Tried for a second time last year, he was again convicted of a first-degree criminal sex act for assaulting Haley. She has also gone by the name Mimi Haleyi. In a messy split verdict, the jury acquitted him of forcibly performing oral sex on another woman, Kaja Sokola, and could not reach a verdict on a rape charge involving Mann.

After another retrial ended in a hung jury in May, Manhattan prosecutors dropped the rape charge rather than pursue a fourth trial. Mann had said she could not bear to testify again.

Harvey Weinstein is also awaiting resentencing in a separate rape case in Los Angeles. A California appeals court upheld the 2022 conviction. However, it overturned his original 16-year sentence because the judge had considered his New York convictions as an aggravating factor. Those NY convictions were later overturned.

Associated Press writers Michael R. Sisak and John Seewer contributed to this report via AP Newsroom. 

General Hospital spoilers for Sept 28-Oct 2, 2026 stun with Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison) betrayed in a way he did not expect. Although, if I’m being honest, he should have. Meanwhile, Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) hires himself a divorce lawyer.

Also, during the week of Sept 28th through Oct 2nd, we will see the aftermath of Jenz Sidwell‘s (Carlo Rota) attack in Pentonville. And Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) is in hot water. And as we always do on early edition day, we go over what is happening the rest of this week and then we get into what is coming next week.

General Hospital Spoilers: Chase Gets Legal Advice

So, let’s get to it. Wednesday, Sept 23rd on General Hospital, Chase talks to Monet, the new lawyer that Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennessy) and Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) have hired at their law firm. She’s played by Blythe Howard. And Chase tells her, “I cannot lose my daughter.” So, he’s getting some advice and Chase asked the lawyer, “Monet, what strategy is best to make sure he does not lose Phoebe?” I bet it’s going to be to expose what Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) has done.

Meanwhile, Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) tells Brook Lynn that if Chase ends their marriage over this, he is the liar. I mean, Tracy’s got a lot of nerve considering Chase is mad over lies that Tracy insisted that Brook Lynn tell Chase. And then Tracy gets a new ally. This may be Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) because the General Hospital fall preview says that he and Tracy team up against Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) to take her down for good. And Chase is probably going to be collateral damage in this along with Brooklyn’s marriage.

GH Spoilers: Trina’s Big Decision

Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) reaches a decision. This could be about her music career since she is furious at Brook Lynn. And I think it’s going to be pivotal to Trina’s stalker storyline, which I think it’s either Simon (Grady Eldridge) or Quinn (Jequan Jackson). Somebody makes Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) an offer. This could be related to Trina’s stalker or music career. Or maybe it’s a new job since he’s no longer working for Willow.

Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) strategize about Drew and Sonny tells Ric if Drew wants to take a shot, let him try. We still haven’t seen the auction of Sidwell’s properties where Drew wants to get the shares. So, we’ll see. And Ava also tells Willow that if Nina was framed, she might know by who. Obviously, Ava is trying to point Willow in the right direction, which is Drew, but he thinks Ava won’t tell because of her involvement.

Also, Drew tells somebody that he started to think that they were avoiding him. This might be Michael. He runs into somebody at the gym at the Metro Court. And we also have Drew spotting Willow and Chase having an interaction and he takes notice. So, Drew got his revenge on Nina and now he is moving on to Willow and he may use Chase to destroy Willow.

General Hospital Spoilers: Sidwell Ambushed

This week an inmate tells Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) to find a reason not to be in his cell after lunch and then Sidwell is cornered by two inmates in the cell that he shares with Curtis. So looks like this may be after Portia brings baby Desmond up to Pentonville to see his dad Curtis.

Then Thursday, Sept 24th on General Hospital, Alexis has a meeting with somebody she may take on as a client. I think it would be really interesting if Ava put Alexis on retainer and then Ava could tell Alexis what happened with Jack Brennan and Drew and the pills and get Alexis’s legal advice because Ava and Alexis have a truce.

Now Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) is stunned. So she may confront Justine about seeing her kiss Sonny because this week Justine tells Sonny that their secret is out. Tracy tells somebody her plan. It might be Michael because they have shared goals of ruining Willow and getting Chase away from Brooklyn.

Drew and Michael put all their cards on the table. Their mutual hate of Willow is a common interest. We also have Ava going off on Sonny. I’m betting this is about Avery since Sonny likes to use their daughter against her. After this encounter, Ava says he has to go down. So, she may be talking to Drew about them making a big move against Sonny.

General Hospital Spoilers: Lulu Shocked & Ava Plots

Friday, Sept 25th on General Hospital, Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) helps Brook Lynn with something. Could be with the baby. Since Hudson wants to see his daughter and is looking for chances, he may prod about the state of her marriage to Chase. And I wonder if he’s going to tell Brook Lynn he saw Chase at Willow’s place.

Also, Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) is shocked. So, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) may tell Lulu about the stunt Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) pulled in Drew’s car and that he took Charlotte’s phone and banned her from seeing Danny Morgan (Asher Jared Antonyzyn).

We also have Jordan demanding answers and this could be a conversation with Justine or maybe with Sonny. And with Justine about to run for DA, her continuing to see Sonny thinking their affair is going to stay secret is absolutely foolish. But this may also be Jordan talking to the warden since Curtis may be collateral damage in the Pentonville attack on Sidwell.

Even though Curtis was warned to stay away, I really doubt that he will. Also, Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) is truthful with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). So, Carly may tell Jason what she caught Charlotte doing and how worried Carly is about the effect his twin brother Drew is having on people that she cares about because of the ban on Danny seeing Scout Cain (Kayden Brenna Tokarski).

Also, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) refuses a request from Michael. So, I am kind of wondering if he’s going to ask his sister Josslyn to help him in plotting against Willow.

GH Spoilers: Justine Faces a Dilemma

Then the week of Sept 28th through Oct 2nd on General Hospital, we will see that despite Jason being out of the mob, he is still Sonny’s friend. And we are soon going to see Jason, Sonny, and Ric discussing the Drew problem because it is definitely a problem for Jason’s son Danny as well as a professional problem for Sonny.

Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) and Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) may get closer now that Britt and Jason have split and she is really going through it. We also know that Sonny is now the biggest obstacle to Justine winning her campaign to be Port Charles District Attorney. Jordan already knows their secret is out and they were just sloppy. Honestly, Justine and Sonny about being spotted outside the Brown Dog. So somebody else might have seen them as well.

Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) presses Serena Baldwin (Kelly Kruger) to keep working on Michael to get more shares of Deception. Serena really doesn’t want to pull a big old con on Michael. But of course, Lucy is not going to let up, especially since Brook Lynn is pushing her to hand back the shares that Lucy blackmailed out of her over that false statement to the cops that Chase busted her for. And if Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) approaches Drew and says he wants to see Scout, I’m sure that is going to go very badly. Rocco talked to Scout about it and you know she’s trying to make it clear it’s just not a good idea.

General Hospital Spoilers: Trina’s Stalker Story Escalates

Anna has some more sessions with her therapist. It’s good to see that Britt and Anna buried the hatchet and that both of them are trying to forgive and move forward. It looks like Danny and Charlotte will not give up on taking down Drew and they’re going to be in Drew’s house very soon.

We’ll also see more of Trina’s stalker. And word on the street is that whoever this guy is may attack Kai, possibly killing him during November sweeps. Also, I shared the rumor that Sidwell is going to grab the chance to escape after the attack on him in Pentonville. So, watch to see if he is sent to General Hospital because that’s where he’s supposed to break out from.

Jonathan Taylor Thomas was reportedly detained after an encounter with a sheriff’s deputy during a traffic stop in Southern California. The former child star was allegedly a passenger in a vehicle that deputies pulled over Monday in Westlake Village. Law enforcement sources claim Thomas exited the vehicle, refused instructions to get back inside, and became uncooperative. Thomas was taken to the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station before being released a short time later, marking a surprising turn for an actor who has largely remained outside the public eye for years.

Jonathan Taylor Thomas Was Reportedly Detained During Traffic Stop

According to TMZ, Thomas was riding as a passenger when law enforcement pulled over the vehicle in Westlake Village, California. Law enforcement sources told the outlet that Thomas exited the vehicle after it was stopped. Deputies allegedly instructed him to remain inside, but the actor reportedly refused and became uncooperative. The sources further alleged that Thomas was drunk in public and resisted the deputies.

Jail records reportedly show that Thomas was detained Monday at the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station’s jail. He was released shortly after. No additional details were immediately available about why the vehicle was initially stopped, who was driving, or whether anyone else involved was detained.

It Is Unclear Whether The Actor Will Face Charges

Although Thomas was taken to a sheriff’s station, the report describes him as detained rather than formally arrested. TMZ did not report that prosecutors filed charges against him, and the initial account included no court date or case number.

The outlet’s law enforcement sources characterized the alleged conduct as obstructing or resisting an officer. However, the jail records did not disclose the precise offense, if any.

It is also unclear whether Thomas was cited before his release or whether authorities intend to send the matter to prosecutors for review.

Until authorities release additional records or prosecutors announce a filing decision, the legal consequences of the reported incident remain uncertain.

Jonathan Taylor Thomas Became A Major 1990s Teen Star

Thomas, widely known by his initials JTT, became one of the most recognizable young actors of the 1990s through his role as Randy Taylor on “Home Improvement.”

The ABC sitcom followed television handyman Tim Taylor, played by Tim Allen, and his life with his wife, Jill, and their three sons. Thomas played the intelligent and sarcastic middle child alongside Zachery Ty Bryan and Taran Noah Smith.

“Home Improvement” premiered in 1991 and ran for eight seasons before ending in 1999. Thomas left the regular cast during the final season, and the show explained Randy’s departure through a storyline that sent the character to Costa Rica.

His television success helped turn him into a teen idol whose face appeared across magazines, posters, and other merchandise throughout the decade.

Thomas also built a prominent movie career. He provided the voice of young Simba in Disney’s 1994 animated classic “The Lion King” and starred in films including “Man of the House,” “Tom and Huck,” “The Adventures of Pinocchio,” and “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.”

The Former Child Star Stepped Away From Hollywood

Despite his enormous popularity, Thomas gradually pulled back from acting to focus on his education and life outside the entertainment industry. He studied at Harvard University, Columbia University and the University of St Andrews in Scotland. Thomas later graduated from Columbia in 2010.

Thomas eventually returned to television for a brief reunion with Allen on “Last Man Standing.” He appeared in four episodes between 2013 and 2015 and also directed three episodes of the sitcom. Before that, his most recent television role was an appearance on “Veronica Mars” in 2005.

JTT Recently Reunited With His ‘Home Improvement’ Family

Thomas made headlines in July when he appeared in a rare photograph with former “Home Improvement” co-stars Patricia Richardson and Taran Noah Smith.

Thomas also unexpectedly returned to entertainment headlines in May when Hilary Duff identified him as her childhood celebrity crush during an appearance on “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for Sept 28-Oct 2, 2026 deliver drama with Finn (Tanner Novlan) absolutely outraged by Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) over this surrogacy scheme just as he is leaving town. Plus, Katie Logan (Heather Tom) doubles down on her bad attitude and it could cost her a lot.

Also, during the week of Sept 28th through Oct 2nd, we’re going to see Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) worried about the state of her relationship. Plus, Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) gets really excited and Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) pushes trying to get exactly what he wants. And as we always do on early edition day, we go over what’s happening the rest of this week. Then we dive into what is coming next week.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Sheila & Deacon Reconnect

So, let’s talk about it. Wednesday, Sept 23rd on The Bold and the Beautiful. Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) is getting hands-on with Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan). And we know Taylor is not going to be happy when she hears about Deacon’s heart-to-heart he had with Sheila at Bikini Bar.

So, Deacon’s ex insisted, as you heard, she only walked away from him because Sheila thought that he and Taylor were so in love that they were going to get married. And that might give Deacon some food for thought. And he may tell Taylor what Sheila said to some extent press Taylor a little about her rejecting his proposal. You know, maybe Deacon hopes to spark a little jealousy in Taylor. So, maybe she’ll reconsider committing to him.

Finn makes a plea to Steffy to call off this surrogacy thing. It makes perfect sense for Finn not to want Steffy to go through with this surrogacy. It’s a huge sacrifice for Finn also, and Steffy never mentioned it to Finn. So, as far as he knows, this is just out of the blue. And of course, this is not something Steffy was considering at all. That’s why she didn’t talk to him.

B&B Spoilers: Carter’s Relentless Pressure

This is all about Carter pushing for the fake surrogacy so that Daphne won’t find out that he and Steffy cheated and had that one night stand. But, of course, obviously, Finn doesn’t know the whole story. And even if this was a legit surrogacy that Steffy was doing for Daphne and Carter, you know, it’s still wrong for Steffy not to have at least consulted with Finn first before telling Daphne, okay, that’s from his side.

Of course, we all know it’s more complicated. And now Finn may think Steffy has been upset because she’s been thinking about the surrogacy. And Finn may also feel trapped and not want to criticize her too much because Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) just treated him like a bad guy, you know, and told him to fix things with Steffy. So, Finn may not feel like he can push back on Steffy like he ordinarily would.

Bold and Beautiful Spoilers: RJ Frustrates Zende

Thursday, Sept 24th on The Bold and the Beautiful, Zende Forrester (Delon de Metz) and R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) get to work on the new Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) youth line. When Hope for the Future was shelved and Zende was working on R.J.’s men’s line. We saw that Zende was not happy at all. And I think we are going to get a replay of the exact same circumstances.

Because R.J. is probably going to be high-handed. Since Ridge made Zende the head of Hope for the Future, which was their old youth line before they found out Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) left, you know, Zende may assume that he’s going to be the new lead designer on this new youth line. And R.J. is clearly trying to grab the reins. So, this could make things a lot worse at Forrester Creations.

Katie considers adding something new to House of Logan. She already added the fragrance line and the jewelry collection. So, maybe this is somebody to replace Eric Forrester (John McCook) and do a 2nd couture collection. I am really excited to see what Katie is cooking up. And we also know that Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) is soon angry with Katie and the war between her and Brooke gets even worse this fall because Katie is going to pull some other stunt that Brooke thinks crosses lines. And we’ll see if it has something to do with maybe competing with Electra’s youth line if they find out about it.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Zende Pushed Too Far

Friday, Sept 25th on The Bold and the Beautiful. Speaking of Zende, his frustrations are building and things reach a boiling point. I think R.J. is going to push Zende too far and even worse, Ridge may take R.J.’s side, which may be just too much for Zende. That could be a break point. You know, the Forresters could be pushing somebody else out the door.

Darcy Dylan (Kelly Sullivan) gives Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) a reminder that no, she does not need Katie’s approval to be with Will Spencer (Crew Morrow). Thankfully, Darcy’s more supportive than Will’s mom, Katie. We’ve got Will confronting Katie this week, saying that she can compare Dylan to Brooke. Okay. But then Will is going to start comparing Katie to Stephanie Forrester. (Susan Flannery). And initially, this ticks off Katie and she’s glaring at her son. But then Katie claps back at Will.

And Katie is saying, “Fine, I will be Stephanie because she was just trying to protect her son, Ridge.” And Katie reminds him that Stephanie was shielding Ridge from Brooke. And Katie says as she should have since Brooke stole Stephanie’s husband. It’d be crazy to think that Dylan is out there making moves on Bill Spencer (Don Diamont). It’s outrageous as a comparison.

And Katie says, “I will do the same thing Stephanie did and I will protect you from Darcy who is just like Brooke.” I think it’d be pretty funny if Will runs into Brooke and mentions any of this to his aunt because she might be really ticked off at Katie with this Stephanie comparison even more than Brooke’s already ticked off at her.

B&B Spoilers: Brooke’s New Storyline

And then next week, Sept 28th through Oct 2nd on The Bold and the Beautiful. Brooke’s going to be back on screen soon after Katherine Kelly Lang took a break from filming. And Brad Bell said that Brooke has her own storyline coming up for fall that’s going to be really dramatic. We’ll find out fallout after R.J. alienates Zende over Electra’s youth line. And I’m curious to see if R.J. mishandles things and if Electra gives R.J. some constructive criticism or if she just blindly supports the way R.J. treats Zende.

Also, some of Electra’s family is coming to town. We’ll get more of Dylan with Darcy and also scenes without. Finn’s very upset about Steffy pressing forward with this surrogacy without even consulting him. And the perfect time for Carter and Steffy to kick off this scheme is when Finn is out of town at the medical conference that he mentioned.

So Finn may come home and Steffy tells him that the surrogacy has already happened. It’s underway and Finn is floored because he probably was planning to come back and have more conversations with Steffy after the conference. You know, Finn may have hoped to still be able to talk Steffy out of it and then Finn’s back and it’s too late as far as he knows.

Bold and Beautiful Spoilers: Steffy Beside Herself

Steffy continues to struggle with the idea of giving up her own biological child to Daphne and Carter, but the lies continue to pile up, and Steffy is going to be at the point of no return soon. A new guy is about to come into Deacon’s life in the next couple of weeks. Plus, Dee is going to be working on a new collection with Hope at House of Logan. Electra’s relationship with R.J. and Darcy’s relationship with Will both move forward, but Electra and Will just cannot forget each other.

Sheila continues to prod at Deacon about Taylor’s disrespect of him by refusing his proposal. And Sheila is going to make clear to Deacon how devoted she was compared to Taylor not being devoted enough to Deacon to let him put a ring on it.

So, he may start seeing Taylor from another angle and maybe have some buyer’s remorse. Steffy may have doubts that she shares with Carter about whether they can even pull off this fake surrogacy thing. And with Finn out of town, Carter may say, “Just lie to him and say you went to the clinic and had it done while he was gone.” But of course, it’s not going to be that easy to fool him because her husband Finn is a doctor.

Amanda Bynes appears to be enjoying a happier chapter in her life as she continues showing off the results of her recent weight loss journey.

The former child star was spotted spending time with her boyfriend of one year, Zachary Khan, during a casual coffee run in Los Angeles.

Their affectionate outing comes as Amanda Bynes remains open about the changes she has made to her appearance as she continues exploring creative opportunities away from acting.

Amanda Bynes Shares A Sweet Moment With Khan During L.A. Coffee Run

Bynes and Khan appeared affectionate as they stepped out together in Los Angeles on Monday. As seen in photos obtained by the Daily Mail, the 40-year-old actress embraced her boyfriend while the pair stopped for coffee.

Bynes wore cropped pink trousers with ruffled detailing, a long-sleeved graphic white shirt and white Vans sneakers. She carried two Starbucks drinks while showing off her decorated nails and completed her casual appearance with brown sunglasses.

Khan kept things simple in an all-black outfit with dark sunglasses and a baseball cap. The couple began dating in September 2025, and sources previously told the publication that her “level-headed” boyfriend has brought Bynes “some stability.”

Their relationship has also occasionally appeared on her social media. On Valentine’s Day, Bynes shared a nighttime video of the pair driving through the city and accompanied it with the affectionate message, “love u zachary.”

See the images from the outing here.

The Former Actress Admitted To Using Ozempic For Weight Loss

Bynes’ slimmer appearance during the outing comes after she publicly discussed using medication to help with her weight loss. In December 2025, she revealed to her social media followers that she had been taking Ozempic.

The actress explained that she previously weighed 180 pounds before beginning her transformation. “I lost 28lbs on Ozempic!” she told followers, putting her weight at approximately 152 pounds at the time.

Her recent outing gave another glimpse at the physical changes she has made since beginning the GLP-1 medication. Bynes has continued experimenting with her appearance as well, frequently changing her hair and eyebrow colors over the past few years.

The weight loss also carries additional significance considering Bynes had previously spoken about difficulties managing her weight.

Amanda Bynes’ Weight Loss Struggles Were Previously Tied To Her Battle With Depression

Before revealing her use of Ozempic, Bynes had spoken about gaining weight while dealing with depression. In March 2024, she told her followers that her mental health had contributed to a gain of more than 20 pounds.

“I’ve gained over 20lbs in the past few months from being depressed,” Bynes wrote at the time, according to People Magazine. Rather than allowing the situation to discourage her further, she said she was trying to develop a healthier response to it.

“I’m doing a lot better now and have learned to do opposite action when I don’t feel like working out or eating clean,” she explained. Bynes also revealed that she weighed 162 pounds at the time and hoped to eventually reach 110 pounds.

These comments showed that her more recent transformation followed a longer period of trying to find an approach that worked better for her health.

The Former Child Star Recently Mourned Hayden Panettiere

Amid the changes in her own life, Bynes recently reacted to the death of fellow former child star Hayden Panettiere. The actress died on August 16 at age 36 after being found at an Airbnb in Greenville, South Carolina.

Bynes shared a brief tribute on LinkedIn the following day. “Life can hit you hard, and fast,” she wrote. “What a horrible situation.”

Alongside her message, Bynes included screenshots from an older interview in which Panettiere had discussed the difficulties that came with becoming famous at a young age and dealing with the expectations placed on child stars.

Bynes understands some of those pressures firsthand, having found fame at an early age. Her acting career eventually came to an end as she faced a difficult period in her personal life that included challenges with her mental health and substance use.

Amanda Bynes Is Building A New Life Beyond Hollywood

Years after walking away from acting, Bynes is now channeling much of her creativity into fashion. She studied at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles for several years and earned an associate degree in merchandise product development in 2019.

She is now putting that education into practice through her New York $peed handbag brand. Rather than simply attaching her name to the products, Bynes has spoken enthusiastically about taking part in the creative process.

“I am so excited about the whole production of it,” she said of the collection. “We are adding decals; we are using fabrics. It’s a whole vibe.”

Her interest in design had already surfaced through a 2024 collaboration with Austin Babbitt, also known as A-spizza, which incorporated Bynes’ original artwork into clothing. Her own handbag line has allowed her to take that interest further and develop products under a brand of her own.

Fashion is not her only creative outlet. Bynes returned to music in April 2026 with “Girlfriend,” her collaboration with Zabba and Fenix Flexin and her first new release in four years.

Between music and fashion, the former Nickelodeon star appears to be shaping a creative identity that exists separately from the Hollywood career that first made her famous.

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Sept 28-Oct 2, 2026 prepare for drama with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) doing a bit of scheming against his biggest rival. Plus, Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) is on a countdown to her wedding and she’s freaking out and something unexpected happens about her big day.

Also, during the week of Sept 28th through Oct 2nd, we will see Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) plotting his next move against the Abbotts, Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) feeling unsure, and Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) lurking. And as we always do on early edition day, we go over what’s happening the rest of this week, then we get into what is coming next week.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Cane & Billy’s Heart-to-Heart

So, let’s get right to it. Wednesday, Sept 23rd on The Young and the Restless. Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) and Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) run into each other at Crimson Lights. They make small talk about the sex of the baby, which Billy and Sally have decided to not find out. They want to have a big surprise. They’ve got several big surprises coming. Cane asks Billy if he’s invited to the wedding, and he says, “Sure, just sign over Chancellor to me.”

And Cane’s like, “What?” Billy says, “Just kidding.” Cane and Lily are invited to the wedding. Then they talk about Jill and Billy still doesn’t want to talk to his mom. But Cane wants Billy to put the Chancellor thing just to bed for once and all and just not be so mad at Jill. Her health isn’t good. And Cane really thinks Billy should make amends because he’s going to lose Jill. Plus Cane thinks if Billy does not invite Jill to the wedding that in the end Billy will regret it. But he’s afraid if Jill comes to his wedding that she might ruin it.

Y&R Spoilers: Audra Warns Sally

So, yeah. Meanwhile, Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) and Sally meet up at the shadow room and Audra can tell something’s up with Sally and she finally admits to Audra that she did ask Chelsea Lawson Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) to be her 3rd bridesmaid. Audra is not happy about this initially. She thinks it’s a mistake for Sally. And also Audra admits she’s a little jealous because she wants to have Sally all to herself. But Audra gets over it. Tells Sally, you know what? It’s your wedding. I won’t do anything to ruin it.

They talk about the possibility of Adam coming to the wedding with Chelsea and Sally thinking, well, maybe it won’t be too bad. Sally texts her wedding planner, Pietro, to make sure there’s extra security because Patty Williams is still a fugitive. And Billy shows up and Audra asks how he feels about Chelsea and maybe Adam being at the wedding and then she takes off.

Sally fills Billy in on Audra’s reaction. And then Billy tells Sally that he ran into Cane, but they kept it very polite. Billy says they argued a little bit about Jill. And Billy says he just doesn’t want Jill at the wedding. But Sally says, “Of course your mom’s invited to the wedding.” And then Billy finds out that Sally and Jill have been texting about the wedding and he’s not happy about it because Billy just wants to cut Jill out of his life once and for all.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Sally Pushes Billy

And that horrifies Sally. And she says their child needs to have its grandmother around. Billy says, “I’ll think about it,” but basically he thinks Sally’s still pushing for Jill to come to the wedding. And he mentions that he ran into Adam and that they both agree that Adam should not come to the wedding.

Meanwhile, Chelsea’s telling Adam that Sally asked her to be a bridesmaid. And Adam says, “Yeah, Billy already told me.” Chelsea’s a little upset and worries that Adam has ruined things, but he said he promised Billy he wouldn’t go to the wedding unless Chelsea asks him to. And at first, she says, “I won’t make you go to the wedding.” And then Chelsea changes her mind and she asks Adam to go, but to be on his best behavior at Sally’s wedding.

Adam is shocked, but Chelsea says, “Please go for me.” But Adam tells her, “You know what? Billy doesn’t want me to be there.” And Chelsea keeps pushing Adam to try, but just to make sure he doesn’t cause a scene because not only would he be ruining Sally and Billy’s wedding, but he would ruin Chelsea’s day, too. Adam just refuses and refuses to go, which is the right thing to do.

But Chelsea keeps badgering him until he finally agrees. He’s not happy about watching Sally make the biggest mistake of her life. But Chelsea says Adam going and playing nice would mean a lot to her. So he agrees. And then they wonder if they should ask Connor to go, but they don’t think he would want to. So Adam and Chelsea are also wondering if Connor is going to start asking when they are going to get married again. And Adam seems to be all about it. So maybe we’ll have another wedding.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Cane Shuts Audra Down

And later, Audra sees Cane at Crimson Lights and she tries to talk to him. And of course, Cane wants nothing to do with Audra. But she starts asking if Cane is going to Billy and Sally’s wedding and if he’s bringing anybody. And Cane asks if Audra’s trying to ask him to be her date to the wedding.

And she says, “I was just trying to be nice.” Sure. Cane says he is bringing a date and he does not need any new friends. Audra gets irritated and tells Cane get over himself and Audra storms off. Then Cane texts Jill asking her to call him when she wakes up because she’s in a whole different time zone, several different time zones away.

Y&R Spoilers: Traci Worries About Billy

Thursday, Sept 24th on The Young and the Restless, Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) pays someone a much needed visit. So she goes over to see Billy at his house. And when Traci shows up at Billy and Sally’s place, you know, he’s on high alert. Billy was not expecting Traci and wants to know why his sister is there.

So, Billy’s worried, you know, asking is everything okay. Traci wants him to tell her. So, she’s really worried. And The Young and the Restless spoilers say Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) and Traci have different opinions of Sally. So, Traci may be telling Billy he should cancel the wedding or maybe Traci’s warning Billy that Ashley is going to try and get him to call it off.

Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) makes sure that Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) is ready for anything. They have another sexy meetup at the motel after Victoria had to cancel their last tryst because she had to spend time with Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin). Phyllis Summers catches a break from Daniel Romalotti.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Nick Turns to Sharon

And then Friday, Sept 25th on The Young and the Restless, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) turns to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) for help making a hard decision. So Nick’s already back to work at Newman, but maybe he’s not feeling satisfied and he wants to quit. But as Sharon says, what if he does quit and he has all that time on his hands? Because Nick may worry he will relapse. I don’t think he’s enjoying corporate life, though.

Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) promises something to Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters). She’s really upset about him helping Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) with Vibrante, forgiving her for Victor nearly having Patty nearly kill them both. Diane just doesn’t feel heard, but Jack reassures her that Diane comes first. Victor does something to make sure Vibrante is a smash for Nikki, but we all know it is going to be setting the groundwork for something that will hurt Jabot.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Sally & Billy’s Wedding around the Corner

Then Sept 28th through Oct 2nd on The Young and the Restless. Sally and Billy are in end stages because their wedding is in October and Sally’s sister Coco Spectra (Ashley Campbell) and her grandma Shirley Spectra (Patrika Darbo) are coming to town very soon. Look for bachelor and bachelorette parties for her and Billy. And we’re going to see Sally freaking out the closer it comes to her big day and also having some baby anxiety. Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) and Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) have scenes soon.

And Adam and Billy keep bickering and Adam may scheme to do something to just shake up Billy on his big day. Not ruin the big day, but just a poke. Diane can’t stop worrying about Patty. Nick may feel without a purpose and tries to find Marie Kirkland (Jade Harlow). Patty’s not done yet. Kyle and Victoria are on a race to get busted for this fling. Victor moves forward with his new attack on Jack and Jabot and more on Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) and Phyllis.
