· Sarah Aubrey, Head of Original Content, HBO Max quote: "The brilliance of James Gunn once again shines with Peacemaker. He took this character, brought to life by the inimitable John Cena, and created an exceptional series that's simultaneously thrilling, hilarious and heartfelt, showcasing the humanity beneath this team of misfits living in a superhuman world. As the first original DC show to have its series premiere on HBO Max, we are thrilled that the viewers agreed to give peace a f***ing chance."
· James Gunn quote: "Creating Peacemaker has been one of the true highlights of my life, both professionally and otherwise, with John Cena and the incredible creative team around me, as well as our partners at HBO Max. To have something we all love so much be loved by the audience in turn has been a wonderful experience. I can't wait for folks to see where Team Peacemaker goes in Season Two!"
· John Cena quote: "I am incredibly honored and humbled by the response to Peacemaker and the experience of playing this character. Thank you to James Gunn, Peter Safran, HBO Max, the crew, and my castmates who worked tirelessly to make this unforgettable series."
· Season 1 cast: John Cena, Danielle Brooks, Freddie Stroma, Jennifer Holland, Chukwudi Iwuji, Steve Agee, and Robert Patrick.

"Rat in the Kitchen"
Premiering on TBS on March 31st, "Rat in the Kitchen," hosted by Natasha Leggero and Chef Ludo Lefebvre, is far more than a traditional cooking show - it's a game of high stakes cat and mouse where viewers get to play detective. In each episode of this comedic cooking whodunnit, a mix of professional chefs and passionate home cooks compete in a series of creative cooking challenges, earning cash in their bank for every dish that impresses judge Chef Ludo Lefebvre. But they'll have to avert the meddling of an undercover rat determined to sabotage the dishes and undermine their chances at victory.
The 10-hour series is produced for TBS by ITV America's Thinkfactory Media, in association with ITV Studios' Possessed.

Coming to TBS this summer, "The Big D" is an explosive new dating competition series that takes on the relationship space with a twist, following recent divorcees as they search for romance in paradise with one catch - their exes will be along for the journey. Over the course of several weeks, 10 divorced couples move into a tropical villa in Costa Rica together to re-learn how to date while looking for love with the other contestants in the house. The group takes part in revealing relationship EX-ercises designed to help the singles form connections, make peace with their former partners, and finally get over the issues holding them back from dating. Each episode, one person who isn't relationship material will be eliminated. Jealous exes may try to send their rival home or perhaps even defend their exes' honor - the possibilities are endless. Hosts JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers ("The Bachelorette") are no strangers to courting in-front-of a camera and will be on-hand to help the divorcees get back into the dating game.
"The Big D" is produced by Lighthearted Entertainment with Rob LaPlante, Jeff Spangler and Kevin Lee serving as executive producers.

Actor and comedian Bob Saget died of head trauma, it was confirmed on Wednesday.
“The authorities have determined that Bob passed from head trauma,” his family said in a statement, per E! Online. “They have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep. No drugs or alcohol were involved.
“As we continue to mourn together, we ask everyone to remember the love and laughter that Bob brought to this world,” the statement continues, as well as “the lessons he taught us all: to be kind to everyone, to let the people you love know you love them, and to face difficult times with hugs and laughter.”
Saget’s death was first confirmed on Jan. 9 by Florida’s Orange County Sheriff’s Office, which shared in a tweet at the time that deputies had been called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes about an unresponsive man in one of the hotel’s rooms. Saget was identified and pronounced dead on the scene, but per the Sheriff’s Office, detectives “found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case.” Saget had been performing stand-up on his latest tour, which kicked off in September 2021 and was set to run through June of this year.
“He was everything to us,” Saget’s family said in a statement after his death, “and we want you to know how much he loved his fans, performing live and bringing people from all walks of life together with laughter.” The actor, who was 65 when he passed away, is survived by wife Kelly Rizzo and children Aubrey, Lara and Jennifer.
Though Saget had a long career in stand-up comedy, along with years-long stints on series like America’s Funniest Home Videos and How I Met Your Mother, he’s perhaps best known for playing patriarch Danny Tanner on ABC’s Full House and its Netflix revival Fuller House. In the wake of his death, many Full House co-stars and collaborators mourned Saget, among them John Stamos and Dave Coulier (aka Jesse Katsopolis and Joey Gladstone), Candace Cameron Bure (D.J. Tanner), Jodie Sweetin (Stephanie Tanner) and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (Michelle Tanner).
