Renewed but sister program 9-1-1 has been canceled by Fox and picked up by ABC (which owns it) https://deadline.com/2023/05/9-1-1-lone-star-renewed-season-5-fox-1235351506/ https://deadline.com/2023/05/9-1-1-canceled-fox-move-abc-season-7-1235351504/

I'm sure the salary for Angela Bassett has to be pretty high to start Still, very surprising given how well 9-1-1 is doing, but Fox doesn't own it so they don't benefit quite as much as owner ABC probably will

That is quite unexpected. I presume this precludes any more crossovers with 9-1-1: Lone Star

Hopefully this fits here

They did show a clip with Cher and Carol performing on the show and Cher appeared on this special where she said some nice things to Carol. I don’t recall about Peters

CBS should have broadcast this given Carol’s variety show was on CBS for its entire run but apparently NBC went after it

Apparent quick promo on BBC1 today

My late grandmother had a drawer full of similar kind of stuff

Mildly amusing overall, but Black Table talk with Colman was pretty good
