Kim Kardashian is definitely supportive of her 10-year-old son Saint West’s latest hobby.

The All’s Fair actress, 45, showed off son Saint popping a wheelie on a dirt bike via her Instagram account on Saturday, March 21. The photo captured Saint in action with his off-road bike in a vertical position, with one wheel fairly high off the ground.

“BIKER BOY SAINT,” Kardashian captioned the photo.

Saint got lots of love for his dirt biking via his mom’s Instagram comment section, with singer and streamer Morgan Westbrooks replying: “Let me pull up [and] show him how to do some wheelies… he’s dope.”

“OK saintttt we see you,” another follower added, with a third chiming in, “Let’s goooo, saint!”

Saint is one of Kardashian’s four children with her ex-husband Kanye West. The former couple also share North West, 12, Chicago West, 8, and Psalm West, 6. (Kardashian and West, 48, split in early 2021 after seven years of marriage and finalized their divorce the following year. She was previously married to producer Damon Thomas from 2000 to 2004 and later to NBA star Kris Humphries for a brief period in 2011.)

The Kardashians star frequently supports her kids’ hobbies via her social media. Last October, Kardashian came to daughter North’s defense when her daughter showed off an edgy new look via TikTok. North amassed millions of TikTok views by debuting a faux star tattoo under her eye and her name written in cursive on her cheek, as well as a fake septum piercing and a black grill over her teeth.

When some TikTok commenters suggested the new look was inappropriate for a child, Kardashian seemingly clapped back, “This is such a non-issue.”

In a heartfelt post, Kardashian, 44, shared a carousel of photos showing her and Saint over the years, including the pair smiling, snuggling […]

In a subsequent video for Complex with her All’s Fair costar Niecy Nash-Betts, Kardashian clarified that she personally regulates all of North’s TikTok videos.

“North, if she ever posts a TikTok, it’s on my phone, so she has to ask my approval, and then I post it,” Kardashian said on November 5, 2025. “The comments, all that’s on my phone.”

The reality star went on, “Her and her girlfriends, they love doing costumes, they love doing looks, and so, it’s Halloween season, so they put on fake tattoos on their face, fake piercings, they all had their colored hair. They looked like an opium Powerpuff Girls … [that’s] what they were going for.”

Kardashian confirmed that North was actually the one responsible for her clapback to the TikTok backlash.

“She was like, ‘I don’t get it. It’s a Halloween costume. It’s all fake,’” Kardashian recalled. “So, she takes my phone, and she writes back to a comment, and she goes, ‘This is such a non-issue.’ Then online, it was like, ‘Kim defends North to the end on this look.’”

[…]

She then quipped, “That’s a good clapback.”

Meanwhile, Kardashian turned heads on the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty on Sunday, March 15, when she arrived wearing blue contacts and a skin-tight gold ball gown by Gucci. Among those impressed by her awards season look was rumored love interest Lewis Hamilton, who left a flirty comment via Kardashian’s Instagram account.

Apple TV has built one of the most impressive catalogs in streaming over the years. Their shows reflect a dedication and quality that’s tough to see anywhere else; perhaps even statistically, Apple TV has the least amount of criticized original programming, and though their volume is disproportionate compared to other streamers, it’s commendable to see a deliberateness in a streamer’s release schedule.

Though Apple TV is known for its versatile drama content, it has a range of genres across all shows; not all of them are exciting, but some are so fun and easy to watch that they’re worth a binge-watch. From dystopian thrillers to spy dramas and historical epics, these are the most exciting Apple TV shows to binge-watch.

‘Bad Sisters’ (2022–2024)

Image via Apple TV

Bad Sisters is exciting because it’s one of the rare shows that prepares you for what is about to happen. It doesn’t spare its leads any trauma or heavy-hitting truths, showing them as more than just heroes of a story but rather as very regular people, humans who try to do the right thing. Bad Sisters was co-created by and stars Sharon Horgan, known for her dry, sarcastic humor; she’s surrounded by other Irish actors in this adaptation of the Belgian series Clan, adding her stamp of dark humor into the story. With two seasons and 18 episodes so far, this is one of the easiest shows to binge-watch over a long weekend.

Bad Sisters is a black comedy-thriller that follows the five Garvey sisters—Eva, Grace, Ursula, Bibi, and Becka—who become inescapably drawn together by the untimely “accidental” death of Grace’s (Anne-Marie Duff) abusive husband, John Paul (Claes Bang). The first season flashes between past and present as two life insurance investigators (Brian Gleeson and Daryl McCormack) look into John Paul’s death, revealing the sisters’ various attempts to kill the monstrous man who made their lives hell. The second season jumps ahead two years, exploring the guilt and consequences of their actions. The chemistry between the sisters feels genuine, and while Season 2 may lack the oomph of the first, Bad Sisters is one of the best original series on Apple TV.

‘The Studio’ (2025–Present)

Image via Apple TV

The Studio may not be the first thing you think of when you hear “exciting,” since this adjective is typically attributed to thrillers and action. However, one look at The Studio‘s pilot episode will make you realize just why this black comedy/satire is so fun. There’s one episode that was fully filmed as a single take (aptly called “The Oner”), and some extended scenes and episodes throughout the show are also continuous, or at least appear to be, to achieve the perfect flow of events. This is why The Studio is so exciting—so much happens in a span of 20–30 minutes, and it avalanches into incredible slapstick events.

The Studio follows Matt Remick (Seth Rogen), the newly appointed head of a fictional movie studio, Continental. It’s a clever Hollywood satire that explores the tension between artistic integrity and corporate demands, with Matt representing integrity and the increasing demand for IP-focused content symbolizing the industry’s urgency to keep up with trends. People around Rogen are just as ridiculous and brilliant, from Kathryn Hahn to Catherine O’Hara, who passed away before getting the chance to star in Season 2. You’ll finish The Studio within a single day, for sure.

‘Your Friends and Neighbors’ (2025–Present)

Image via Apple TV+

For anyone chronically online, you must have seen that meme of Jon Hamm dancing in a nightclub under some blue lights to a 2010s house tune; that scene is from Your Friends and Neighbors, one of the quietest and most underrated bangers streaming on Apple TV right now. Many consider this to be Hamm’s best role since Mad Men, as he delivers sharp comedic timing and drama, leaning into the absurdist and black comedy nature of the show. With Season 2 premiering in April 2026, Season 3 has already been ordered, too; Jonathan Tropper‘s series is gearing up to be one of the most consistent shows on TV, though that’s not surprising for Tropper.

Your Friends and Neighbors follows Andrew “Coop” Cooper (Hamm), a hedge fund manager who loses his job when a consensual hookup with a coworker becomes an HR violation. This gives Coop’s ruthless boss a convenient excuse to lay him off while keeping his clients. Losing his job makes Coop resort to robbing his wealthy neighbors’ mansions to maintain his lifestyle, and what begins as a caper comedy evolves into a deep dive into themes of family, class privilege, and toxic masculinity. You can binge-watch the first season just ahead of the second to prepare for Coop’s new adventures.

7

‘Dark Matter’ (2024–Present)

Image via Apple TV+

Some viewers have called Dark Matter Apple TV’s best sci-fi show since Severance. Competition is tight in that category on Apple TV, so this isn’t for nothing; Dark Matter may be slow at some points, but it’s incredibly exciting as soon as we—and the protagonist—get the hang of the physics. Blake Crouch adapted his book into nine episodes, while Joel Edgerton is fantastic in playing two versions of the same man. As a bonus, the show uses Chicago’s urban landscape beautifully, giving noir-esque night sequences, in particular, a breathtaking atmosphere.

Dark Matter follows college physics professor Jason Dessen (Edgerton), who is a happy family man living with his wife Daniela (Jennifer Connelly) and their teenage son, Charlie (Oakes Fegley). One evening, he’s abducted by a strange man and sent into an alternate version of his life; as it turns out, Jason’s place has been taken by his doppelgänger from another dimension. Jason must go through numerous parallel realities to return to his true family, facing the most terrifying enemy imaginable: himself. Captivating from the first episode, Dark Matter is a mind-bending hard sci-fi series that roots its emotional weight in Jason’s motivation and emotions. It’s a pretty cool mix of paranoid thriller elements and complex scientific ideas.

6

‘Silo’ (2023–Present)

Silo has an interesting position on Rotten Tomatoes: it has 90% critics’ approval and only 68% audience approval; yet, when viewers discuss Silo, they’re typically very enthusiastic about the show, enjoying its layered themes, dystopian sci-fi setting, and impeccable set design and production. Silo was based on Hugh Howey‘s novel trilogy of the same name, and showrunners had planned it to be a four-part series from the start; we’re now two seasons in, awaiting the third and fourth.

Silo is set in a dystopian, devastated future, where humanity lives in a massive underground silo, a 144-story structure housing 10,000 people who believe the outside world is uninhabitable. Juliette (Rebecca Ferguson), an engineer with a rebellious nature, begins to uncover secrets about the silo’s origins and the reasons people cannot ever leave it, as well as why those who do simply never return. Silo is another series you might deem a bit slow, but this gives the narrative more tension and depth, filling the atmosphere of the show with uncertainty. Once the plot deepens, you’ll find it impossible to put this series down.

5

‘Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ (2023–Present)

Image via Apple TV

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters isn’t a widely discussed show, so we’ll summarize it with a few words: it’s a clever expansion of the MonsterVerse without asking its viewers to be experts on the subject matter. If you like the Japanese kaiju movies (Godzilla, etc.), Monarch plays on that well, though, admittedly, the monster scenes are rather limited. However, they’re completely spectacular when they arrive, keeping viewers hooked on watching; the human drama is also compelling enough to carry the episodes between monster appearances, and it’s guided by Wyatt Russell and his father, legendary actor Kurt Russell.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters is set in 2015, after the battle between Godzilla and the Titans in San Francisco (as shown in 2014’s Godzilla); the story follows two siblings, Cate Randa (Anna Sawai) and Kentaro, who begin tracing their father’s footsteps to uncover their family’s connection to the secretive organization named Monarch. The narrative jumps between the 1950s and the present day, with Kurt and Wyatt Russell playing the same character, Lee Shaw, at different ages. Monarch is an intriguing, character-driven conspiracy thriller that happens to feature giant monsters, and it’s a show you won’t just stop watching so easily—it’ll pull you in almost instantly. Season 2 has just started, too, so you’ll surely catch up quickly.​

4

‘Chief of War’ (2025–Present)

Image via Apple TV+

Jason Momoa returns to Apple TV to produce a groundbreaking series that we can safely claim hasn’t been done in such a manner until now. Chief of War is his decade-long passion project, and it’s unique because it’s performed almost entirely in the Hawaiian language, with costumes and weapons crafted to historical specifications. Beyond that, experts translated dialogue, the cast learned to speak the language, and filming took place in New Zealand and Hawaii with minimal CGI; as a cherry on top, Hans Zimmer and James Everingham provided the cinematic, epic score.

Chief of War was based on true events, set during a time of war between the four big Hawaiian islands—Hawai’i, Maui, O’ahu, and Kaua’i—and follows the warrior chief Ka’iana (Momoa) of Maui as he tries to unify the Hawaiian islands before Western colonization in the late 18th century. It’s an ambitious and epic production, violent but human all at once, showing exceptional storytelling and even greater action, depicting Ka’iana’s ambitions, struggles, and dominance while his people learn how to trust him. You can watch the nine episodes of Chief of War instantly, since the show is incredibly immersive, and you can do it before a potential Season 2 and even 3 are announced.

‘Black Bird’ (2022)

Image via ©AppleTV+/ Courtesy Everett Collection

Black Bird is one of the most intense and thrilling cat-and-mouse chases ever made for TV, and the fact that it’s a miniseries makes it all the better. Why? Because it’s a fully wrapped-up story, and all that’s left for you, after binge-watching it, is to give it a rewatch and enjoy all the nuances of Taron Egerton and Paul Walter Hauser‘s character work. Egerton dials up his charm as the arrogant Jimmy Keene, but the real revelation is Hauser, who delivers a career-best performance as the unsettling Larry Hall. Hauser won a Golden Globe and an Emmy for his performance, and the series truly is one of the best Apple TV has ever offered its viewers.

Black Bird was based on true events, and this six-episode series follows Jimmy Keene (Egerton), a charismatic drug dealer sentenced to 10 years in a minimum security prison. The FBI offers him a deal: transfer to a maximum-security prison, befriend suspected serial killer Larry Hall (Hauser), and get him to confess to multiple murders, including revealing where the bodies are buried. In return, Jimmy walks free, and the charges are dropped. The pacing feels deliberately slow, made to amp up the dread while giving insight into who Keene and Hall truly are. Dennis Lehane‘s masterful script makes Black Bird a well-written show, but the performances elevate it to a higher level of brilliance.

‘Slow Horses’ (2022–Present)

Slow Horses is an interesting breed: having started in 2022, the show has so far stacked five magnificent seasons that maintain the same level of quality throughout. Slow Horses may have a lot of episodes, but you’ll find yourself welcome at Slough House as much as anyone possibly can by the time your weekend is over. The beauty of Slow Horses is how well it can move from agents cleverly uncovering an elaborate threat to public safety to its main spies accidentally dropping a can of paint on a vital political figure without a dramatic change in tone.

Slow Horses was based on Mick Herron‘s novel series called Slough House (which is even funnier source material), which is the name of the “dumping ground” for MI5 agents who’ve screwed up so badly they can’t be fired, just banished to administrative hell (known as “slow horses”). Slough House is run by Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman), a flatulent, disheveled, and brilliantly rude spy who was once legendary. These “slow horses” keep getting dragged back into real espionage, often because Lamb is several steps ahead of everyone else, often including the criminals. Oldman’s Lamb is one of television’s greatest creations, and Slow Horses is smart, cynical, and utterly addictive.

‘Severance’ (2022–Present)

Severance is an incredibly ambitious series, and it works in all the ways it tries to. Set in modern times, yet somehow pristinely decorated in retro-futuristic sets and motifs, Severance deliberately feels claustrophobic, sterile, and confusing. You’re meant to get lost in the world of the “severed” before you’re rudely cut away and sent somewhere else, which turns out to be their “real life.” The show works on multiple levels: as workplace satire, a philosophical exploration of identity, and a mystery-box thriller. The Season 1 finale is one of the most compelling hours of television in recent memory, while Season 2 episodes range from great to near perfection.

Severance is set in the offices of Lumon Industries, where employees can undergo a “severance” procedure that surgically divides their memories: their “innie” exists only at work, and their “outie” remembers nothing of the job. Mark S. (Adam Scott) leads a team of innies who perform mysterious, repetitive tasks while his outie, Mark, lives blissfully unaware of his own job. When a former colleague starts leaving the team cryptic messages, they begin questioning everything, and Severance unravels into thriller territory. You will likely need roundtable discussions with friends after every episode, because Severance is television at its most ambitious and most rewarding.

Outside of maybe Brendan Fraser, Keanu Reeves is comfortably one of the most universally beloved actors working in Hollywood today. That’s why it was savvy, if a little obvious, to have him play a beloved Hollywood star in the upcoming Apple comedy Outcome. But that’s not the first movie to play on Reeves’ likability, because there’s also the 2015 home invasion thriller Knock Knock (streaming now on Prime Video).

Directed by divisive horror filmmaker Eli Roth, Knock Knock came out right after John Wick kicked off Reeves’ career renaissance (which was a few years after a viral image of Reeves looking sad on a park bench convinced the internet that we should all be a lot nicer to him). Knock Knock doesn’t so much weaponize his likability as it does exploit it, making a point about Hollywood’s conception of what a victim looks like that a lot of viewers and critics weren’t especially on board with. To come right out and say it: The movie only has a 37 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, but it seems well-positioned for an eventual reappraisal.

What Is ‘Knock Knock’ About?​​​​​​​

Image via Lionsgate Premiere

Reeves plays Evan, an architect who stays home to work while his wife and kids go on a vacation together. During a rainstorm one night, two young women — played by Ana de Armas (Reeves’ future Ballerina co-star) and Lorenza Izzo — knock on his door and ask to use his phone. He invites them in so they can dry off and he orders them an Uber, but instead of leaving, they get naked and seduce him. The next morning, they not only refuse to leave but lie to Evan that they’re underage and threaten to call the police on him.

From there, things escalate in sort of a Funny Games way, though Knock Knock was based on a ‘70s exploitation thriller called Death Game that predates Funny Games. It’s also more about the psychological torture that Reeves’ Evan undergoes than it is about actual serial killer violence. The argument could also be made that it’s not even a home invasion thriller, since Evan does invite the two girls in and willingly sleeps with them (at least at first). It’s not a The Strangers-style random act of terror; they’re punishing him and they believe that he deserves it.

Why Does ‘Knock Knock’ Keep Getting Better As Time Passes?

Image via Lionsgate

There’s a YouTube comment on the Knock Knock trailer from 10 years ago that says “Imagine if the genders were flipped.” At the risk of being reductive, yeah, that seems like the point. It’s pretty common in horror/thriller films for women to be abused by men, whether it’s in something like Last House on the Left where the horror is grotesque or in Friday the 13th where teenagers are killed for having sex and the audience hoots and hollers.

You watch it happen to a man, specifically a man who just played John Wick and who everyone has a soft spot for, and you’re just waiting for him to turn the tables and get revenge. The punishment he’s getting doesn’t seem fair, surely he’s going to lock in and defeat them, right? That would be a more satisfying story, and one that would probably get more than a 37 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, but — to its credit — this movie doesn’t back down from a story that seems designed to make some people frustrated. As time goes on, and Knock Knock’s legacy changes (and as everyone continues to love Keanu Reeves), more people might come around to what it’s trying to do.

Chuck Norris’ fans have left flowers and mementos at his Hollywood Walk of Fame star following the action star’s death at age 86.

Us Weekly exclusively obtained a photo of the makeshift memorial created by fans on Hollywood Boulevard, which includes multiple bouquets of flowers and even a miniature replica Academy Award. Norris received his Hollywood Walk of Fame star in December 1989 in recognition of his contributions to the movie industry.

Countless eulogies and remembrances have been shared since Norris’ family confirmed his death on Friday, March 2020. Norris was hospitalized in Hawaii for an undisclosed medical emergency the previous day but no cause of death has yet been disclosed.

“It is with heavy hearts that our family shares the sudden passing of our beloved Chuck Norris yesterday morning,” his family said in an Instagram tribute. “While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace. To the world, he was a martial artist, actor and a symbol of strength. To us, he was a devoted husband, a loving father and grandfather, an incredible brother and the heart of our family.”

Their statement continued, “He lived his life with faith, purpose and an unwavering commitment to the people he loved. Through his work, discipline and kindness, he inspired millions around the world and left a lasting impact on so many lives. While our hearts are broken, we are deeply grateful for the life he lived and for the unforgettable moments we were blessed to share with him.”

“The love and support he received from fans around the world meant so much to him, and our family is truly thankful for it. To him, you were not just fans, you were his friends,” the Norris’ statement concluded.

Norris had a near six-decade Hollywood career as a martial artist and star of classic action movies such as Missing in Action, The Delta Force and The Expendables 2. In the 1990s, he starred in more than 200 episodes of the Western TV series Walker, Texas Ranger.

The Hollywood icon was a father of five children — sons Mike and Eric Norris from his first marriage to Dianne Holechek, a daughter named Dina Norris from another relationship in the 1960s, and twins Dakota and Danilee Norris with his second wife, Gena O’Kelley.

His twins Dakota and Danilee posted heartfelt messages in honor of their late father a few hours after his death was announced on Friday.

“Dad, it’s hard to find the right words for this, but I’ll do my best,” Dakota, 24, wrote via Instagram. “You’ve been the man I looked up to my whole life. Your generosity, your kindness, your courage, your integrity, your strength, your discipline, and your faith in the Lord were just a handful of things I always admired about you. You lived your life with purpose and with love for all people.”

Danilee, 24, added via her own Instagram account, “My dad was my protector the moment I was born and as soon as he took me in his arms, I’ve been his little girl. That was something I would always acknowledge even when I was too big to be cradled properly.”

“My dad loved so deeply and cared for every single person in his life with so much tenderness,” she went on. “He may have a warrior exterior, but his heart was so full of love and I’m so grateful that is something he and my mom passed down to me.”

“If you got the opportunity to meet him you knew he is the most down-to-earth person ever,” Greta wrote via Instagram on Friday. “In a room full of people he would make it known that he was listening to you and only you. He made everyone he met feel like a friend.”

Scrubs’ return to television saw the kind of ratings that most broadcast comedies only dream of, proving that the show still held a very special place in the hearts of loyal fans. Starring Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, and Judy Reyes, the reunification of the original cast started off as one of the strongest shows on television, but may be losing some of its audience.

Scrubs is being billed as less of a reboot and more of a continuation of the original series, which wrapped up in 2009. It follows the lives of JD and Elliot after their divorce as they navigate their working relationship, with JD taking over as the chief of medicine and Elliot working as a doctor mentoring younger people in the hospital in the simulation lab. When the series picks back up, Carla and Turk are still married, with Carla working as a nurse and Turk serving as chief of surgery. There’s a new group of attendees that need mentors, which is where the original cast comes into play, similarly to how the show started back in 2001.

The Premiere Proved ‘Scrubs’ Still Has Fan Loyalty

The revival of the show absolutely crushed its competition at first. It brought in more than 11 million cross-platform viewers in the first five days of its February 25 premiere. Disney announced it marked ABC’s biggest comedy episode and most-streamed series premiere in over a year. So clearly, Disney knew what it was doing when it decided to bring Scrubs back after 17 years.

The show takes viewers to familiar places. It’s been embraced by longtime fans and was praised for being a “heart-warming homecoming” that preserved the core of the original series. The writing, characters and emotion are reminiscent of the series that people loved for so many years. While the characters have gotten older, their cadence of speech, their jokes and the core attributes that make them, well, them, have stayed the same. They’ve also been able to preserve the chemistry between the cast right from the start, something other reboots have needed several episodes to work out.

It all makes sense as to why so many people would tune into the premiere. Viewers – likely particularly millennials – wanted to see the characters they grew to love in their youth back on their screens again. And the first episode delivered on that. It was inoffensive, had the right mix of light-heartedness and deep emotion, and it didn’t stray far from the original series. But, that which was a strength for the premiere, may be an issue for the lifespan of the series.

‘Scrubs’ Nostalgia Can Only Go So Far

Scrubs’ reboot premiere ratings were likely heavily impacted by nostalgia. There’s a reason the show was on for so many seasons and people were excited to get some of those good vibes back. But, the revival’s greatest strength may also be one of its biggest limitations.

It’s a deeply comforting show. It gives viewers familiar characters, emotions and a rhythm to the show that we loved the first time around. While that formula works well for bringing viewers in for a premiere, it’s not the best strategy when it comes to generating urgency with a weekly release show. Scrubs is asking viewers to remember to tune in each week almost purely for vibes, not plot lines, which is a hard sell.

Despite ABC’s continual hyping up of the premiere ratings, the network has been noticeably quiet in the weeks since. Just five episodes in, the early glow of the show has started to fade. Viewers have dropped by about 30 percent since the strong start, with the 18–49 demographic falling by 40 percent. And, the show hasn’t ever made it into Hulu’s top 10, indicating that the new season isn’t gaining significant viewers on Hulu and also isn’t driving people to rewatch earlier seasons, either.

‘Scrubs’ Reboot Gives Viewers Little Reason to Keep Watching

s

With only nine episodes, Scrubs the reboot is essentially a limited series and has significantly fewer episodes than the 20 or so that viewers regularly got in each season of the original run. The shorter episode series gives networks ways to test a show without committing to a full run. And in some ways, Scrubs has delivered enough to get a season two. It gave a boost to ABC’s comedy slate and got a lot of attention with the premiere. It also gave ABC something to brag about with its initial ratings.

But, if the goal was a true comeback, Scrubs might not have enough juice. With a decrease in viewership and no strong plot lines. Fans don’t have strong reasons to keep coming back. Scrubs is the kind of sitcom that fans will rewatch when they want something familiar and mindless. And without a good reason to watch the new season, fans could rewatch old episodes and get the same good vibes.

People involved in the show are hoping for a season two and the show is going to get viewers just by the nature of the fan base of the original run. And, to be fair, Scrubs was a hit, although that doesn’t necessarily mean it has a future. To have longevity, Scrubs needs to say something new and give viewers a reason to love this new season beyond just loving Scrubs years ago. If they don’t, it’s just a reminder of what viewers already loved, which might not be enough to keep the show going.

Savannah Guthrie and her family issued a new statement to the people of Tucson, Arizona, amid their matriarch Nancy Guthrie’s continued disappearance, explaining that they are unable to “grieve” until she is brought home.

“We are deeply grateful for the outpouring from neighbors, friends and the people of Tucson. We are all family now,” the family said a KVOA-TV News special on Saturday, March 21. “We continue to believe it’s Tucsonians, and the greater Southern Arizona community, that hold the key to finding resolution in this case. Someone knows something.”

The Guthries suggested that someone within the community may have “information that they do not even realize is significant.” They asked the community to “search their memories” for any details that stand out.

Savannah Guthrie and her family paid an emotional visit to the memorial outside mom Nancy Guthrie’s home one month after her disappearance. “Savannah Guthrie, her sister, Annie, and her brother-in-law, Tommaso [Cioni], visit the memorial outside Nancy’s house just now,” Brian Entin, a senior national correspondent for NewsNation, wrote via X on Monday, March 2, […]

“We desperately ask this community for renewed attention to our mom’s case – please consult camera footage, journal notes, text messages, observations or conversations that in retrospect may hold significance,” their statement continued. “No detail is too small. It may be the key.”

The Guthries said that they “miss [their] mom with every breath” and won’t be able to find “peace” until “she is home.”

“We cannot grieve; we can only ache and wonder,” they said. “Our focus is solely on finding her and bringing her home. We want to celebrate her beautiful and courageous life but we cannot do that until she is brought to a final place of rest.”

Their statement concluded: “Thank you for continuing to pray without ceasing.”

Nancy was first reported missing on February 1, 2026, when she failed to meet up with friends to observe a virtual church service. Shortly after her disappearance, authorities ruled it a kidnapping.

Since then, Guthrie and her siblings, Camron Guthrie, 61, and Annie Guthrie, 56, have remained in their mother’s hometown as the investigation continues. The siblings appeared in multiple videos shared via Instagram, begging for their mother’s safe return or any information that could lead to her alleged kidnappers.

“Coming on to say it is day 24 since our mom was taken in the dark of night from her bed, and every hour and minute and second and every long night has been agony since then, of worrying about her and fearing for her, aching for her, and most of all, just missing her, missing her,” Guthrie said in an Instagram video shared on February 25, adding that her family increased the reward for any information regarding their mother’s kidnapping to $1 million.

“We know that millions of you have been praying. So many people have been praying of every faith and no faith at all, praying for her return, and we feel those prayers. Please keep praying without ceasing,” she added. “We still believe. We still believe in a miracle”

In the caption, Savannah revealed that $1 million would be paid “only for the recovery” of Nancy, 84. She encouraged those who know something that could aid the case to contact the FBI, noting that callers “can remain anonymous” or “find a way to reach out to me.”

On March 5, Savannah made an emotional return to the set of the Today show – her first since her mother went missing.

While there, Savannah thanked the Today team for their love and support and for “caring about my mom as much as I do.” She also revealed that she plans to return to the morning show. “I have every intention of coming back,” she said. “I don’t know how to come back, but I don’t know how not to. You’re my family. And I would like to try.”

Earlier this month, Savannah and her family were seen stopping by a memorial set up outside of Nancy’s home. In the video, Savannah’s sister, Annie, could be heard crying as she locked arms with her husband, Tommaso Cioni, and the NBC host. The group carried a handful of sunflowers, which they placed in front of a sign that read, “Dear Guthrie family, your neighbors stand with you.”

Idris Elba‘s Apple TV thriller Hijack was an instant hit when it premiered in 2023. The gripping series tells the story of a corporate negotiator who finds himself caught in a hijacking and must use his skills to save his life and everyone aboard the plane. The series was renewed for Season 2 after the first season became a major hit, and it replicated its predecessor’s success despite a lack of viewer acclaim. Hijack has been one of the top shows on Apple TV, peaking at number one when the season finale aired on March 4.

Current streaming data, courtesy of FlixPatrol, shows that Hijack is finally losing its grip on viewers while facing steep competition from Apple TV’s latest additions. New episodes of Shrinking, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, and Imperfect Women have propelled all three shows to the top of the chart, pushing Hijack further down. It’s not unusual for shows to lose viewers following a season finale, so Hijack will eventually disappear from the charts unless Apple TV renews it for Season 3.

“If Apple decide they want another bite of the of the Hijack cherry, the question I will always ask is, what story is there for Sam? Not, where can we do it, but why?” writer Jim Field Smith said when asked in an interview if viewers should expect another season given that ending. “Of course, yeah, it could be on a boat. It could be on an e-bike, it could be in the back of a limo, it could be, you know, a submarine. Or it could transcend the Hijack format and it could move into a different arena. But that’s what I mean. The precinct is kind of irrelevant. It’s more about ‘Where could Sam go?’”
