‘Sherri’ To End This Fall After Four Seasons

Shepherd Previously Expressed Her Happiness About ‘Sherri’ Being Renewed

Sherri Shepherd Joins Kelly Clarkson As A Now-Former Talk Show Host

Daytime Talk Show Ratings Are Down Across The Board

Apple TV has just blessed us with its 2026 slate — at least for the first half of the year — and it looks like we’ll be watching every minute of the day going by the boatload of prestige TV they just dropped, as the streamer plans to roll out new originals nearly every single week, mixing prestige drama, buzzy thrillers, returning fan favorites and limited series with big stars dipping their toes in the episodic water.

The big headline, of course, is the return of Ted Lasso for Season 4, but that’s just one piece of a lineup that also includes fresh seasons of Shrinking, For All Mankind, Sugar, and more. Add in new shows led by Elisabeth Moss, Kerry Washington, Amy Adams, Javier Bardem, and Anya Taylor-Joy, and Apple is clearly aiming for a “prestige TV every month” vibe. The full year’s breakdown of today’s announced series can be found below.

Apple TV’s 2026 Series Release Schedule

Ted Lasso is back — but with a twist. Season 4 sees Ted coaching a second-division women’s football team, which feels like exactly the kind of heart-forward, underdog energy the show thrives on. And of course, it’s Apple, the home of prestige science fiction, which can only mean one thing: sci-fi fans are eating well. For All Mankind keeps pushing deeper into space in Season 5, while Monarch: Legacy of Monsters expands the MonsterVerse with more Titan chaos. For the crime enthusiasts, prestige thrillers are everywhere. Imperfect Women (Elisabeth Moss, Kerry Washington), Cape Fear (Amy Adams, Javier Bardem), and Criminal Record Season 2 all lean into darker, character-driven mysteries.

And of course, don’t forget about the giggles too, because between Shrinking, Margo’s Got Money Troubles, and the very chaotic-sounding Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, Apple is still delivering the laughs as regularly as the dystopia.

What Movies Are Coming to Apple TV in 2026?

Apple TV has also revealed an impressive lineup of films coming to the streamer this year, from Elizabeth Olsen‘s afterlife romance Eternity, premiering next weekend, and Ryan Reynolds‘ long-awaited Cold War movie coming this fall, to Keanu Reeves‘ latest comedy Outcome and John Cena‘s hotly anticipated Matchbox movie. See the streamer’s full movie slate below.

Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for High Potential Season 2, Episode 12.Last week’s episode of High Potential ended with Karadec (Daniel Sunjata) rekindling things with his ex-fiancée, Lucia (Susan Kelechi Watson). Despite supporting Karadec and encouraging him to try again with Lucia, Morgan (Kaitlin Olson) had a sad look on her face as she watched them leave together. This seemed to be a clear set-up for the beginning of a possible feelings realization arc for Morgan, and sure enough, this week’s episode takes this to the next level in the very best way.

This week’s episode sees Major Crimes investigating the murder of the wealthy founder of a wellness company. Meanwhile, Oz (Deniz Akdeniz) tries to get his father’s headstone ready in time for a planned memorial service. This is a strong and fast-paced episode throughout, and it benefits from giving focus to each of the characters, and in particular, giving Oz his first subplot that’s completely separate from a case. Best of all, the case puts Morgan and Karadec in what appears to be a near-death situation, and it brings them closer than ever.

In ‘High Potential’ Season 2, Episode 12, Major Crimes Investigates the Murder of a Man Trying to Live Forever

In Season 2, Episode 12, “The Faust and the Furious,” the Major Crimes team investigates the murder of Gabe Rafferty (Brad Raider), the founder of a wellness-focused technology company called Genegevity. Gabe was stabbed inside his house, but there’s no clear sign that somebody got through his very elaborate security system. Morgan and Karadec speak to Gabe’s assistant, Renata (Lyla Porter-Follows), who reveals that he shared his biodata with her through the Genegevity app. After Renata’s mom died, Gabe became a mentor to her and gave her a job. The goal of the company was to stop the aging process so that people could live forever, which started with the treatments that he was using on himself.

The investigation process takes Major Crimes to a number of people who would have had the motivation to kill Gabe. A woman named Siobhan McBriar (Hallie Samuels) was suing Gabe because Genegevity changed the ingredients in her vitamins without telling her, which disrupted her birth control and got her pregnant. Later, they learn that Gabe was embezzling money from Genegevity, and that he had cleverly found ways to make all of his employees blame each other for the company’s financial discrepancies. A message from Gabe beyond the grave assures his company that someone will be taking over for him soon if he’s ever killed. It turns out all of this money was going into creating a new robot version of Gabe that had all of his previous memories and knowledge uploaded.

Robot Gabe speaks to Morgan and Karadec and tells them that the Do Not Disturb system in Gabe’s house was adjusted by someone other than Gabe on the night of his death, making it turn on earlier than usual. Robot Gabe also gives them a list of people who had been threatening Gabe, then the robot is shut down and can no longer talk to them. Morgan and Karadec go to see Mika Aster (Brandon Engman), the founder of the tech start-up that created the robots. Gabe bought the company promising to keep Mika on, but then he pushed Mika out. Morgan and Karadec visit Gabe’s house and briefly get stuck in the room where he was killed. They realize that Gabe was locked in when the Do Not Disturb feature was turned on, and that the candles he lit in the room were laced with arsenic, so Gabe stabbed himself to die faster instead of slowly being poisoned.

The killer turns out to be Renata, who teamed up with Micah to kill Gabe, both for their own reasons. While Micah wanted revenge and his company back, Renata felt betrayed and hurt because Genegivity had originally been researching the genes responsible for her mother and sister’s cancer, which she also carries. When Micah went to confront Gabe about taking over his company, Renata learned that all the money for the research had gone into the robots instead. Renata ultimately confesses after Morgan and Karadec confront her, but she stands by what she did.

In ‘High Potential’ Season 2, Episode 12, Oz Tries To Get a Headstone for His Father’s Grave

It was revealed last season that Oz’s father had died the year before. In this episode, Oz’s family tries to have a belated memorial for him, because they’ve been waiting for his headstone to be ready for a long time. A few days before they’re supposed to have the memorial (after it’s already been moved twice), Oz learns that the headstone was never confirmed with the cemetery. Oz goes to see his mom (Jacqueline Antaramian), and she says she used his father’s life insurance money to pay for the headstone. The costs then piled up, and before she knew it, the money was gone, and there was still no headstone.

Oz is angry with his mom, and she has to call Daphne (Javicia Leslie) to check on him because he won’t take her calls after that. Selena (Judy Reyes) then calls Oz in for a meeting, and he tells her that his mom spent $20,000 on a headstone that is now stuck in a shipping facility. Selena says that the funeral home took advantage of Oz’s mom, but Oz blames himself for not being there for her during his grief. Selena relates to Oz by telling him about her mother’s death, then she encourages him to stop being so hard on himself. Selena steps in to call out the funeral home for its predatory practices, and Oz’s mother gets a full refund. Oz’s father’s grave finally gets a headstone, and they have a memorial service for him. Oz gives a touching eulogy where he comes to terms with his grief, and then he calls the Major Crimes team his family.

In ‘High Potential’ Season 2, Episode 12, a Perceived Near-Death Experience Brings Morgan and Karadec Together

Image via ABC

Karadec and Lucia are still seeing each other after reconnecting last week, and they’re already getting serious again. The episode shows how Karadec’s job is no longer the obstacle in their relationship, and it seems to hint that Morgan will become a new obstacle. Morgan shows up to Karadec’s apartment to ask for a ride to work, where she sees Lucia. In the car, Morgan asks Karadec about his relationship, and he tells her that he’s happy.

Later, Morgan and Karadec are investigating Gabe’s house, when they get locked in the room where Gabe was killed, and they believe that the room is filled with the poison that killed Gabe. Morgan has a panic attack, terrified that she doesn’t know what to do, and that there is no way out. She tries to do a grounding exercise, but her mind is full of images of the people she loves the most and will lose if they both die there: her three kids and Karadec. Karadec hugs Morgan to calm her down, and then the door opens, and it’s revealed that there was no poison in the room. It’s one of Morgan and Karadec’s best moments yet, because, on this rare occasion where Morgan feels a loss of control, Karadec is the one who’s able to keep her grounded.

When he gets home from work, Karadec has a conversation with Lucia where they talk about their past breakup and start to move forward together. It’s clear that Karadec has learned his lesson from their breakup, but he also already clearly has feelings for Morgan, even if he doesn’t realize it. After Oz’s father’s memorial, Morgan and Karadec talk about what happened. She feels mortified and ashamed about falling apart instead of being able to help out in that situation, but Karadec tells her that they count on each other, and that she would’ve done the same for him. The show then sets up an upcoming breakdown for Karadec. He tells her that at some point he will have a moment like she did, and that he knows that out of everyone in his life, she’ll be the person who will know how to get him through it. The episode makes it clearer than ever that Morgan will be the obstacle in Karadec’s relationship with Lucia this time around, and based on his facial expression after that last conversation, he may know it, too.

High Potential airs Tuesdays at 9:00 P.M. EST on ABC.

Pros & Cons

• This episode puts Morgan and Karadec in a suspenseful near-death situation, in what is a phenomenal scene, with excellent acting from both Olson and Sunjata.
• This episode gives Oz his first big storyline outside of work, making the ensemble cast feel more balanced.

When Episode 22 of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 7 arrives, the series is four episodes away from closing the figurative book on Star Trek‘s most artistically risky and exquisitely crafted piece of long-form storytelling to date. A major contributor to that success, franchise mainstay Ronald D. Moore, turns his screenwriting pen upon the audacious spin-off two more times during this home stretch — one of them being Episode 22, titled “Tacking into the Wind.”

Unsurprisingly, given Moore’s reputation for detailed worldbuilding and subversive emotional rawness, the episode exemplifies Deep Space Nine at its height: a crackling synergy of riveting sociopolitical weight, elite character growth, and cohesive narrative escalation. And it’s a simple-on-the-surface exchange from this episode, not one of the dozens of bracing quips or eloquent monologues from previous entries, that serves as a masterful microcosm of Deep Space Nine‘s lasting resonance.

Kira Nerys Challenges Damar During a Pivotal ‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’ Scene

Image via Paramount Television

The Dominion War, Deep Space Nine‘s crowning arc, boxes its exceedingly complex heroes into exceedingly complex internal conflicts. The forever honorable Captain Benjamin Sisko (Avery Brooks) realizes he can accept tarnishing his soul to defeat a ferocious enemy, while Bajoran ambassador Kira Nerys (Nana Visitor) educates her former oppressors in the same guerrilla warfare tactics she once deployed against them as a freedom fighter.

Her Cardassian pupils include Damar (Casey Biggs), a long-time foe turned begrudging ally who recently defected from Cardassia’s alliance with the Dominion. During “Tacking into the Wind,” the Dominion retaliates against Damar by assassinating his wife and son. Stunned into grieving stillness, Damar can’t fathom an empire insidious enough to wage war by thoughtlessly sacrificing “innocent women and children.” He wonders aloud, “What kind of people give those orders?” Kira, while compassionate about two lost lives, quietly responds by slicing him open with a blade of accountability: “Yeah, Damar. What kind of people give those orders?”

This moment wouldn’t carry as much profound significance without Deep Space Nine‘s multi-season interconnectivity. By this point, Kira has healed her mosaic of wounds without relinquishing her rage — nor should she surrender it. Raised during Cardassia’s decades-long occupation of Bajor, she knows firsthand the abject cruelty, the labor camps, the mass murders, the “I was following orders” rationalizations, and how to respond in kind via an insurgency. With immeasurable generational tragedy always humming underneath her skin, with a Cardassian military officer in close quarters, Kira turns both the irrevocable reality of war and Damar’s culpability back upon him.

‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’ Strengthens the Franchise’s Optimism by Testing Its Limits

Even though the Kira of Season 7 regrets striking a defenseless former enemy, her searing, point-blank wisdom unravels Damar into an ideological crisis. For many individuals whose proximity to power keeps them insulated from harm, it doesn’t matter when torment and subjugation befalls a stranger; brutality only becomes substantive once it arrives at their own doorstep. Now that Damar’s reeling from an atrocity identical to the ones for which he’s culpable — and now that he shares a sliver of the same pain the Bajorans have experienced countless times over — he recognizes the useless horror of it all.

All Damar can do against Kira’s words is nod in silent, bleak comprehension, then redirect his fury away from her toward the appropriate source. Even a season earlier, it would’ve been impossible to imagine this self-described loyal patriot reconciling with his own sins as well as those of his self-serving, stagnant, imperialist civilization — let alone act upon his realization that the poisonous old ways he once vowed to uphold must be shattered and remade. If the Cardassians keep chasing after conquest and glory, they won’t survive long enough to even attempt to atone for the bloodshed they’ve aided and abetted.

Deep Space Nine fully realizes the franchise’s potential by expanding Trek’s progressive fundamentals to their breaking point. Like buffing a diamond into shining sharpness, testing the idea of a peaceful future by measuring the cost required to achieve it strengthens Trek’s optimism into a hope that’s more bittersweet, fragile, but worth cherishing all the more. By Deep Space Nine‘s finale, the series’ surviving characters find closure because trial-by-fire reassessments like Damar’s have forced them to abandon their initial prejudices, oversights, or naivety.

Although it’s been a bitter pill to swallow, their adjusted vision for the future doesn’t lack the franchise’s defining idealism; it’s stronger and clearer for acknowledging the cycles of violence and their answering inevitability: righteous resistance against war, corruption, and would-be tyrants. Some manner of change can always happen, however small — and maybe, just maybe, the ultimate change can finally take hold: human nature’s best virtues rising above their worst.

Whitney Port’s journey to expand her family with husband Tim Rosenman has faced its fair share of setbacks.

Port and Rosenman, who wed in November 2015, welcomed son Sonny in July 2017. Following Sonny’s arrival, the Hills alum suffered multiple pregnancy losses.

“It’s been seven years of trying since Sonny. I got pregnant about a year after he was born, and then it was miscarriage after miscarriage after miscarriage. I was getting pregnant but the pregnancies weren’t sticking,” she said in a January 2026 interview with Spread the Jelly. “Eventually, I was told my chances would be better with a fertility doctor. I went to one who came highly recommended and started the process of egg retrieval, freezing embryos, and IVF.”

While struggling with secondary infertility, Port and Rosenman looked into surrogacy as an option. After finding a match and completing two transfers, the surrogate suffered a miscarriage.

“We decided to go down the surrogacy road at the end of last year after a really long journey of not being able to conceive on our own and just having so many things go wrong,” Port said on the April 2025 episode of her “With Whit” podcast. “We found an amazing surrogate, and we ended up doing two transfers with the surrogate. Both transfers ended up miscarrying.”

While Port’s journey to expand her and Rosenman’s family hasn’t gone as planned, she has been candid about her journey and remains hopeful to give Sonny a sibling.

Whitney Port Recalls Feeling ‘Incomplete’ Amid Fertility Struggles

During a January 2026 interview with Spread the Jelly, Whitney Port opened up about how she never expected her motherhood journey to turn out the way it did.

“I don’t think motherhood looks like what I imagined. I never thought I’d be a mom to an only child. I always knew I wanted more than one,” she told the outlet. “I didn’t picture this, and that’s been a little weird for me. My identity as a mom doesn’t feel fully solidified yet because I feel incomplete. I really do.”

Port added that while she’s grateful to have Sonny, the struggle to conceive a second child has made her feel insecure.

“This sounds awful, but there’s this feeling like one isn’t enough — or that it’s not as hard, or not as much to balance, or not the full picture,” she continued. “And I carry that insecurity. I’ve done a lot of work around it. Most of the time, I’m able to tell myself, ‘OK, if it’s just the three of us, that is wonderful.’”

Whitney Port Didn’t Feel Like She Deserved to Use a Surrogate

While struggling to conceive a second child, Whitney Port confessed she felt unworthy to use a surrogate.

“I felt like I hadn’t done everything yet, so I didn’t deserve that option. I rejected the idea for a while,” she told Spread the Jelly. “Then I started talking to people who had used surrogates and had similar experiences. I decided to take my power back and see it as a privilege; I don’t need to keep putting my body through this after six years of trying. I was 41 and I was losing myself.”

Whitney Port’s Candid Update on the Egg Retrieval Process

Whitney Port gave an update on how she was faring ahead of an egg retrieval.

“It’s not the physical discomfort (which totally sucks- bloating, bruising, swelling, heaviness) but the emotional discomfort. The hormones are making me feel like I can’t manage anything, like everything is just the worst,” Port wrote via Instagram in August 2024. “And I’m nervous that I’m not going to get out any quality eggs and what will this all be for. I’m scared. My energy is non existent and I feel like I’m not showing up the way I should as a wife, mom, sister, friend, coworker, etc.”

While the former reality star struggled with her emotions, she expressed her gratitude for the support she’s received amid her fertility struggles.

“I’ll be ready to return to gratitude soon, but I am just not there yet with so much up in the air. That may be pessimistic, but I don’t want to force any feelings either. I can’t thank you all enough for your support and words of encouragement,” she concluded.

Why Whitney Port Spoke Up About Her Fertility Journey

In an October 2023 Us Weekly cover story, Whitney Port explained the reason why she started sharing her struggles online.

“It wasn’t [hard to discuss] at first, and then the more I put it out there, it was. Not because I was getting any negative response but it became something that I had to talk about and be reminded of all the time,” she exclusively told Us at the time. “It was already taking over my life, and then it was taking over my professional life. As a digital creator, you’re in this world of showing your personal life as part of your business. So I felt like that was becoming the conversation, and it was all-encompassing.”

Dr. Peter Attia issued a lengthy apology after newly-released files connected to the case against convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein claimed he chose to stay in New York City for a meeting with the sex trafficker while his wife and child were in the ICU.

“I apologize and regret putting myself in a position where emails, some of them embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible, are now public, and that is on me,” Attia, 52, wrote in a Monday, February 2, statement shared via X after allegedly sending the same message to his team and patients. “I accept that reality and the humiliation that comes with it.”

Attia, a so-called longevity researcher, came under fire on Friday, January 30, after new emails allegedly sent between the late Epstein and influencers, including Attia, were released by the Department of Justice. (Epstein died by suicide in 2019 at the age of 66 while in jail awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.)

In one email dated July 12, 2017, Attia and Epstein allegedly engaged in a back and forth exchange to solidify plans to meet up the following morning.

Bill Gates is responding after an email in newly released documents related to the late child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein claimed the Microsoft billionaire contracted a sexually transmitted infection (STI) from “Russian girls.” “These claims are absolutely absurd and completely false,” a spokesperson for Gates, 70, said in a statement to People published on Saturday, […]

“Can you do before 10am? Tomorrow,” the email allegedly sent from Epstein read. Attia allegedly responded, “Sure. I can come earlier, also, if you have a hard stop at 10. Let me know.”

While the exchange might not seem significant to most, Attia previously confessed to leaving his wife, Jill, and infant son to handle a health scare without him during that same timeframe.

“Tuesday, July 11, 2017, at 5:45 p.m., to be exact — I had received a call from Jill, my wife,” Attia wrote in his book, Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity, published in 2022.

The physician recalled in his book that his wife called him from the back of an ambulance because their son had “suddenly stopped breathing” and had no heartbeat. The child was resuscitated through CPR by a nurse, but wasn’t out of the woods.

“When Jill called me from the ambulance, I was in New York, in a taxi on Fifty-Fourth Street, on my way to dinner,” Peter wrote. “After she finished telling me the story, I just said, without a shred of emotion, ‘OK, call me when you get to the hospital, so I can talk to the doctors in the ICU.’”

Eagle-eyed fans noticed that Jill called her husband one day before he allegedly emailed Epstein while in New York to cement their meeting.

According to Attia’s book, he remained in New York “busy with my ‘important’ work” for 10 days after his son suffered cardiac arrest — and for the four days his wife and child were in the ICU in California.

While Attia didn’t directly address the alleged connection between his 2017 trip to New York and leaving his wife and son alone, he did deny that he is an individual who “participated in criminal activity, enabled it, or witnessed it,” which Peter said is the “purpose” of the DOJ releasing the Epstein documents.

New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch broke his silence after he was connected to the late disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “We had a brief association where we exchanged emails about adult women, and in addition, we discussed movies, philanthropy, and investments,” Tisch said of his relationship with Epstein in a Friday, […]

“I am not in any of those categories, and there is no evidence to the contrary,” he claimed in his Monday statement. “To be clear: 1. I was not involved in any criminal activity. 2. My interactions with Epstein had nothing to do with his sexual abuse or exploitation of anyone. 3. I was never on his plane, never on his island, and never present at any sex parties.”

In addition to seemingly abandoning his family to buddy up to Epstein in 2017, Attia’s name was mentioned more than 1,700 times in the latest set of released files.

Attia attempted to explain his connection to Epstein in his statement, noting that they met in 2014 through a “prominent female healthcare leader while I was raising funds for scientific research.”

Attia explained that between summer 2014 and spring 2019 he met with Epstein “on approximately seven or eight occasions at his New York City home, regarding research studies and to meet others he introduced me to.”

He claimed he “never visited” Epstein’s ranch or island and “never” flew on any of his planes.

“I was not his doctor, though several times I answered general medical questions and recommended other providers to him,” Attia alleged.

He then cleared up one email exchange between him and Epstein that was reportedly sent in 2015 — and didn’t paint Attia in the best light.

“In June 2015, I sent Epstein an email with the subject line ‘Got a fresh shipment,’” Attia recalled. “The email contained a photograph of bottles of metformin, a medication I had just received from the pharmacy for my own use. The subject line referred to the picture of the bottles of medication.”

Epstein allegedly responded with the words “me too” and sent back a “photograph of an adult woman.”

Attia confessed, “I responded with crude, tasteless banter,” admitting that it is now “very embarrassing,” to see how he engaged with Epstein. “I will not defend it. I’m ashamed of myself for everything about this. At the time, I understood this exchange as juvenile, not a reference to anything dark or harmful,” he added.

Attia claimed that in 2018 he learned that Epstein’s 2008 conviction, which he allegedly characterized as “prostitution-related charges,” was “grossly minimized,” which is when he started to distance himself from the man. (Epstein was convicted in Florida in 2008 on a charge of soliciting prostitution from someone under 18.)

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor — formerly known as Prince Andrew — appears to kneel on all fours over an unknown woman in new photos obtained from late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s estate. On Friday, January 30, the Justice Department released more evidence from Epstein’s estate, including 100 new photographs. Mountbatten-Windsor seemingly appears in three new images […]

“I was incredibly naïve to believe him. I mistook his social acceptance in the eyes of the credible people I saw him with for acceptability, and that was a serious error in my judgment,” Attia wrote. “To be clear, I never witnessed illegal behavior and never saw anyone who appeared underage in his presence.”

He continued, “Nothing in this letter is meant to minimize the harm suffered by the young women Epstein abused. Their trauma is permanent.”

Attia noted he was “not asking for a pass” from anyone, but claimed roughly 10 years after he sent the emails to Epstein — and being the man that he is today — he “would not write them and would not associate with Epstein at all.”

“I recognize that my actions and words have consequences for the people I care deeply about, including all of you,” he concluded. “I regret the cost this has placed on you, and I take responsibility for it.”
