Just days after BMF premiered on Starz, the network has handed out a second season order. BMF is inspired by the true story of two brothers who rose from the decaying streets of southwest Detroit in the late 1980’s and gave birth to one of the most influential crime families in this country. BMF airs Sundays on Starz. 

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar will be the performers for the upcoming 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show. The event will take place February 13 on NBC, Telemundo and Peacock. The show will be a collaboration between the NFL, Pepsi and JAY-Z’s Roc Nation. 

Freeform has orders new series Everything’s Trash from Phoebe Robinson, who will star in the series inspired by her bestselling book “Everything’s Trash, But It’s Okay.” The series follows Phoebe, a 30-something podcast star navigating her messy life. Forced to grow up when her older brother Jayden emerges as a leading political candidate, she relies on her friends and close-knit family to help her figure out adulthood. 

This Old House and Ask This Old House kick off their new seasons September 30. Season 43 of This Old House and Season 20 of Ask This Old House will consist of 39 episodes, 13 more than usual. New episodes will premiere on PBS as well as an all-new dedicated This Old House premium subscription channel on The Roku Channel on Thursdays. Viewers will be able to stream new episodes for free on demand on The Roku Channel the following Mondays. 

We have our first look at Judge Judy’s upcoming new IMDb TV series Judy Justice. The series premieres November 1 with new episodes premiering every weekday. Joining Judge Judy on the new series will be bailiff Kevin Rasco, court stenographer Whitney Kumar and law clerk Sarah Rose, who happens to be the judge’s granddaughter. 

Season 2 of HBO Max’s Competition Series Craftopia will premiere October 7. Judges Crystal Anderson and JP Connelly will join host Lauren Riihimaki. The first 4 episodes will be Halloween themed. The second batch of four episodes will be winter themed and will premiere November 18.

Sexy Beasts returns for season two on Netflix October 7. The series, narrated by Rob Delaney, follows six new singles as they strip away superficiality for a string of cheeky and charming costumed speed dates. 

Peacock’s upcoming Halloween special Snoop and Martha’s Very Tasty Halloween will now be premiering October 21. Teams of three bakers, called “Scare Squads,” are tasked with baking and building a full-sensory 12×12 Halloween world that people can literally explore. The catch? Their worlds must be inspired by the concept of fear. Imagine larger-than-life-sized chocolate spiders or cotton candy cobwebs! Alvin Zhou will judge alongside Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart. 

Bounce has renewed Johnson for season two ahead of its first season finale October 3. Johnson is a dramedy that focuses on life-long best friends, all of whom share the same last name, centering around their intriguing and sometimes complicated journey of love, friendship, heartbreak and personal growth. Told from the Black male perspective, but inclusive of all men, the series looks to shine a new light on hot-button stereotypes and misconceptions. 

MTV is set to air the premiere of Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga’s I’ve Got You Under My Skin music video on October 1. MTV had previously premiered the music videos for “I Get A Kick Out Of You” on August 6th and the title track “Love For Sale” on September 17th.

Repeats of Castle are heading to Lifetime starting October 5. Episodes will air through November, then go on break while the network airs their usual holiday themed fare. Episodes will then resume airing in January 2022. 

The premiere date for the season 13 premiere of The Wendy Williams Show has been pushed again. Wendy Williams had come down with a breakthrough Covid case initially, but ongoing medical issues not related to Covid have pushed the premiere again to October 18. 

Disney+’s upcoming anthology series Just Beyond premieres October 13. We have our first look at the trailer.

Syfy’s remake of Slumber Party Massacre is set to premiere October 16. The re-imagining of the 1982 slasher cult classic follows a slumber party that turns into a bloodbath, as a psychotic serial killer wielding a power drill disrupts the fun.

Netflix has renewed preschool series Ridley Jones and Ada Twist for season 2. They also ordered four new series, Action Pack, The Creature Cases, Big Tree City and Deepa & Anoop. Ada Twist will return in 2022. The new season of Ridley Jones will premiere November 2 and Netflix released a trailer for it.
