IN THE NEWS

WGA picketers were quickstepping to “Dancing with the Stars” rehearsals. Approximately 30 writers protested outside of the ABC series’ rehearsal studios in West Hollywood yesterday and outside the 3rd Street Dance Studio near the Beverly Center ahead of the show’s season premiere on Tuesday. Signs targeted competing contestants, with signs like, “This one time… At band camp… Alyson Hannigan screwed the entire WGA,” “Can’t dance your way out of this!” and “MATT WALSH, DON’T DANCE AS A SCAB!”

Russell Brand is facing backlash after damaging allegations emerged about his treatment of women. “The UK TV industry should not become synonymous with the scandals of #MeToo.” The comedian is facing accusations of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse over a seven-year period from four women. At the RTS Cambridge Convention, Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer said the industry should provide “places where people feel safe, where working cultures are responsible and accountable and don’t allow abuses of power.” She continued, “I would urge all of you as leaders in your industry to look hard at your culture and processes in your own organizations and lead change if change is needed.” Brand’s comedy special, “Russell Brand in New York,” was removed from Paramount+ following the allegations.

Fuse Media closed its Upfronts with double-digit growth in volume and high single-digit growth in CPMs across platforms. The increases were driven by wins in original programming on both linear and streaming as well as growth in the FAST space, including the return of Big Freedia in “Big Freedia Means Business” and Critic’s Choice Real TV Award nominee “Like a Girl.”

PRODUCTION & DEVELOPMENT

Box Box is taking on new genres after the success of its docuseries “Formula 1: Drive to Survive.” The production company founded by James Gay-Rees and Paul Martin is expanding into new territory such as true-crime and scripted. Martin told Deadline, “We looked at sport as an area, particularly in the premium space, that felt underserved. “ou had ESPN, which did ‘30 for 30’ and HBO doing ‘Hard Knocks’ once a year. But we felt there was a ton of opportunity for really well done, premium storytelling in the sports space. I don’t think we expected ‘Drive to Survive’ to suddenly become this thing that was bigger than just a TV show. But we definitely sensed that there was an opportunity in that space. Then ‘Drive to Survive’ became the right show at the right time and probably fast tracked where we are.”

NEW & RETURNING SERIES

The MVPs of “Basketball Wives L.A.” are back. Evelyn Lozada, Jennifer Williams, Shaunie Henderson, Jackie Christie and Brooke Bailey have returned for season 11 of the reality series. Lozada said in the season’s promotional video, “I actually miss the ladies, the hustle and bustle.” Four new wives have joined the roster: Brittany Renner, Vanessa Rider, Jac’Eil Duckworth and Clayanna Warthen.
