Get ready for more villains.

House of Villains host Joel McHale confirmed that the E! reality series will return for a second season in an interview with EW and PEOPLE on the Emmys red carpet on Sunday.

EW's Patrick Gomez said "I hope we get more of [House of Villains]," McHale responded, "We are! We're shooting it in February."

Season 1 of the E! reality show saw notorious villains from various other reality shows compete for a $200,000 cash prize and the title of America's Ultimate Supervillain. The season, which concluded in December, saw Tanisha Thomas of Bad Girls Club beat the likes of Johnny Bananas (The Real World: Key West), Anfisa Arkhipchenko (90 Day Fiance), Jonny Fairplay (Survivor: Pearl Islands) Omarosa Manigault Newman (The Apprentice), and Tiffany "New York" Pollard (Flavor of Love) for the number one spot.

Here's....another one.


More than four years after Rhythm + Flow debuted on Netflix, the hip-hop music competition series is back with a second season featuring new judges, DJ Khaled, Ludacris and Latto. The streamer also announced Eminem as a special guest who will join the battles round "from a surprise location." Additional music industry guests for the show, in which a panel of judges aim at discovering the next generation's rap star, will be revealed at a later date.

The series is currently in production for a premiere later this year. In fact, Rhythm + Flow executive producers Jesse Collins & Dionne Harmon left Los Angeles immediately after the Emmy Awards ceremony, which they executive produced, on Monday night. They flew to Atlanta, the main production hub for Season 2 of Rhythm + Flow, which also is filming in other cities across the country.

"This season features a powerhouse panel of judges, each with a distinct and influential role in hip-hop culture," the duo said. "In this significant moment for the genre, the focus extends beyond the music alone. We're seeking unconventional voices and authentic stories that peel back layers and invite fans to immerse themselves in the contestants' world as we spotlight the continually evolving spirit of hip-hop."

Rhythm + Flow features contestants from all over the country who are hungry and ready to prove themselves to see if they have what it takes to take home the grand prize of $250,000 and the title of hip hop's newest star.

A duo of Israeli cooking formats are being taken to market by Losing Alice producer-distributor Dori Media.

Dori is shopping Chef Swap and Yum Factor, both of which are produced by Fremantle-owned Abot Hameiri, at Content Americas.

Yum Factor has so far only aired a pilot and sees three home cook contestants cooking to the best of their abilities to win cash, with the twist being that they need to figure out whose taste buds will crown the ultimate flavor champion out of a jury of six regular people.

Horror hosts, writers, directors and drag icons The Boulet Brothers have earned their first GLAAD Media Award nomination this week when their hit drag competition show The Boulet Brothers' Dragula (Shudder/AMC+) scored a nod for Outstanding Reality Competition Program at the forthcoming 35th annual ceremony. The nomination fittingly comes the same week that the groundbreaking Shudder original series wrapped its fifth season with the crowning of contestant Niohuru X.The honor also follows two nominations from the Make-Up Artists and Hair Stylists Guild for its 11th Annual MUAHS Awards for Best Period And/Or Character Makeup (Television Special, One Hour or More Live Program Series) for The Boulet Brothers' Halfway to Halloween TV Special and Best Makeup (Daytime Television Game Show or Talk Show) for TheBoulet Brothers' Dragula.

The fifth season of The Boulet Brothers' Dragula was the most epic season yet featuring a fully redesigned state of the art set, and one of the most diverse casts of drag artists in television history (including drag kings, drag queens, and non binary artists, and competitors from China, the United Kingdom, and Argentina). The season also saw the Boulet Brothers (Dracmorda and Swanthula) serving not only as hosts and producers of the show, but also as the show's directors for the first time to wide praise. A sixth season of the show was recently announced via Shudder and AMC+, following the fifth season becoming a runaway hit with audiences, and ranking among Shudder's most-watched titles and top acquisition drivers of last year.

"We are deeply honored and grateful to be recognized by GLAAD with this nomination. As advocates for LGBTQ+ visibility and inclusion, this acknowledgment reaffirms our commitment to celebrating the diverse voices within our community. We are proud to continue using our platform to uplift and empower the stories that deserve to be heard. This nomination is a testament to the power of representation, and we are thankful for the opportunity to make a meaningful impact through our work." - Dracmorda Boulet

Hosted and created by "horror's new icons" (Fangoria) the Boulet Brothers, The Boulet Brothers' Dragula has become must-see television for horror, drag and reality fans alike. Showcasing some of the finest artists in the world specializing in the franchise's pillars of Drag, Filth, Horror, & Glamour, The Boulet Brothers' Dragula has cultivated a devoted and continually growing fan base.

The announcement of season six continues a hugely successful past two years for the Boulets, who've released the acclaimed The Boulet Brothers' Dragula: Titansspinoff series, embarked on a world tour of live performances, released The Boulet Brothers' Halfway to Halloween TV Special (written and directed by the Boulet Brothers), won "Best Makeup - Daytime TV" at the 2023 Makeup and Hair Stylists Awards, were named to the influential OUT100 list, and more.

Rock the Block, HGTV's home renovation competition juggernaut, will return for a new season on Monday, March 4, at 9 p.m. ET/PT and, for the first time in series' history, four returning teams will get a shot at redemption as they compete to add the most value to waterfront homes in Treasure Island, Florida. During the seven-episode season, hosted by popular carpenter, craftsman and design expert Ty Pennington (Battle on the Beach), the pressure will be at an all-time high as the HGTV powerhouse duos arrive on 'The Block' for an epic renovation showdown to settle old scores and achieve victory - winning bragging rights and a street named in their honor.

Competitors will include renovation aces Bryan and Sarah Baeumler (Battle on the Beach); home renovation visionaries and partners Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas (Bargain Block); dynamic twin sisters and real estate and design experts Lyndsay Lamb and Leslie Davis (Unsellable Houses); and billion-dollar real estate broker and house-flipping expert Page Turner and contractor extraordinaire Mitch Glew (Fix My Flip). Each team will have just six weeks and a budget of $250,000 to renovate attached waterfront homes, each featuring a pool, boat dock and dazzling views of Boca Ciega Bay, and transform them into luxurious homes that reflect their signature vision and stunning design style.

"Rock the Block is consistently among HGTV's highest-rated series, so we know fans are eager to watch this rematch and root for their favorite HGTV stars," said Loren Ruch, Head of Content, HGTV. "For the first time in the series' history, the teams will work with waterfront homes, pools and boat docks, which will test the competitors' skills like never before."

Amazon Studios is getting into business with YouTube personality MrBeast.

The 25-year-old comedian, né Jimmy Donaldson, who has over 230M subscribers on the Google-owned platform, is nearing a deal with the streamer for an unscripted competition series.

Details about the series are still under wraps and Amazon declined comment.

MrBeast is the most-subscribed individual and second-most subscribed account overall on YouTube. His social media career began when he first posted on the platform at 13, though he rose to fame in 2017 when a video of MrBeast counting to 100,000 went viral.

He also has a number of other business interests including food company Feastables, which launched his own line of chocolate bars and launched a FAST channel on Roku last year.

He was also a judge on Fox's Gordon Ramsay's Food Stars last May. The news was first reported by Puck.
