Tour

While no tour has yet been announced, Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz did tour for their 2016 Collegrove project, so another tour wouldn’t be out of the question.

Taylor Sheridan sure has plenty of cowboy irons in the fire. Lawmen: Bass Reeves has only just begun, and Yellowstone still needs to get back to filming its final episodes, but there’s no time like the present for the Sons of Anarchy alum to prepare three more freaking spinoffs in addition to 1883 and 1923.

There will be both a 1944 and a 2024 show, but one of the series, 6666, sounds particularly intriguing and not simply because it sounds like a possible embodiment of Pantera’s “Cowboys From Hell.” For real, though, this show will adopt a fictional take on the real-life cowboys of the 6666 Ranch, located near Guthrie, Texas and now owned by Sheridan, so the show will surely shoot on location.

Who will star in this series? As of now, there appear to be no plans to make this the Matthew McConaughey spinoff of Yellowstone (if we had to guess, that’s probably going to be 2024). However, there could be a familiar face or two onboard in the form of crossover characters/actors. Yellowstone‘s Ryan Bingham and Jefferson White have been the subject of rumors regarding their involvement, and Jefferson White’s character, Jimmy, seems perfectly set up already after his on-point departure in Yellowstone‘s Season 4 finale:

Here’s the 6666 synopsis:

Founded when Comanches still ruled West Texas, no ranch in America is more steeped in the history of the West than the 6666. Still operating as it did two centuries before, and encompassing an entire county, the 6666 has inspired a new scripted series where the rule of law and the laws of nature merge in a place where the most dangerous thing one does is the next thing. The 6666 is synonymous with the merciless endeavor to raise the finest horses and livestock in the world, and ultimately where world-class cowboys are born and made.

At this point, Taylor Sheridan is keeping any confirmation of the 6666 cast members shrouded in secrecy, but we will be watching for any possible updates, as well as news on a definitive release date.

With the SAG-AFTRA strike tentatively settled, actors can resume to work, which is great news for Stranger Things fans. The fifth and final season (a.k.a. Stranger Things 5) was just about to start filming when the strike hit. While it’s bad news that production got delayed, the good news is that Stranger Things will be one of the first Netflix series to fire back up and race towards a release date.

On the heels of the strike being resolved, Deadline reported that Stranger Things 5 would start filming in a “couple of weeks.” David Harbour, who plays Chief Jim Hopper on the hit series, corroborated that reporting in an interview with PEOPLE:

“I mean, I don’t know if we’ll be shooting next week, but yeah, as soon as possible,” he told PEOPLE, adding that he heard from showrunners immediately after news of the strike’s conclusion hit social media.

“They literally called me, I think it was 10 minutes after the SAG thing on Twitter,” he explained. “The first AD [assistant director] is like, ‘So, get the flight for you on Monday, right? We’ll be acting in Atlanta.’”

As for the Stranger Things 5 release date, Netflix hasn’t even announced a window, which is understandable given the delays caused by the strike. However, even with the rush to start filming, the final season is most likely dropping in 2025. The epic scale of the show requires months of filming followed by even more months of editing and special effects.

Given Stranger Things‘ penchant for May and July premieres, we’d probably say Summer 2025 is the most likely release date.

Stranger Things 1-4 are available for streaming on Netflix.

Seth Rogen has been naked in many TV shows and movies, but only once did the scene involve a dog sniffing his butt because it smelled like beef jerky.

Rogen, Nick Offerman, and Paul Dano dropped by Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday to discuss Craig Gillespie’s Gamestock biopic, Dumb Money, as well as how they met, working with Pete Davidson, and failed auditions. It’s a fun time, especially when the topic of nude scenes came up. “I’ve been naked many times on camera, mostly to comedic effect,” Rogen said. The “worst” instance was for The Interview, his 2014 comedy with James Franco and Randall Park that almost led to a nuclear holocaust. Weird times.

“There’s a scene in the film where I’ve shoved a rocket up my ass. I’m concealing it from North Korean guards and I get stripped down by the guards and they have a German Shepherd who’s supposed to… the joke is that the German Shepherd is smelling me and it smells my ass,” Rogen explained. The dog handler and a representative from PETA were on set, but the dog refused to, um, stick his nose up there until they found a solution: beef jerky.

“I end up shoving beef jerky in my ass,” he said.

You can watch the rest of the interview, including the PETA representative’s reaction to the beef jerky trick, in the video above.

Last week, John Oliver crashed the website for Forest and Bird, a New Zealand conservation group that runs an annual Bird of the Year vote. The late night host launched what he’s admittedly called an “alarmingly aggressive” campaign urging people to vote for the pūteketeke, a rare water bird that may just be Oliver’s spirit animal.

“They have a mating dance where they both grab a clump of wet grass and chest bump each other before standing around unsure of what to do next,” Oliver said. “I’ve never identified with anything more in my life.”

However, Oliver’s attention to the contest not only caused the website to crash, but the results had to be delayed as Forest and Bird struggled to keep up with the overwhelming amount of votes pouring in. But to be clear, Forest and Bird aren’t mad. They are absolutely loving the chaos.

“It’s been pretty crazy, in the best possible way,” Chief Executive Nicola Toki told the Associated Press.

Turns out, Oliver had asked the group for permission before launching the campaign. Forest and Bird gave him the green light and severely underestimated Oliver’s zealousness:

Toki said that when the contest began in 2005, they had a total of 865 votes, which they considered a great success. That grew to a record 56,000 votes two years ago, she said, a number that was surpassed this year within a couple of hours of Oliver launching his campaign.

Toki said Oliver contacted the group earlier this year asking if he could champion a bird. They had told him to go for it, not realizing what was to come.

“I was cry laughing,” Toki said when she watched Oliver’s segment.

Not only did Forest and Bird embrace the chaos, but so did Oliver. After learning that he’d crashed the site and delayed the winning results, the Last Week Tonight host taunted his fellow competitors who were about to be crushed by pūteketeke fever.

“For the record, all of your birds are great. And it would be an honor to lose to any of them when results are announced on Wednesday,” Oliver said. “And the reason it’s so easy for me to say that is, we’re not gonna lose are we? We’re gonna win, and we’re gonna win by a lot. And when we do that, the pūteketeke will be your Bird of the Century, and there’s nothing any of you can do to stop that right now.”
