Netflix Announce Slate of New and Returning Reality TV Shows
Simon Cowell and Harry Jowsey are coming to Netflix
Last year, Netflix hired a new VP of unscripted named Jeff Gaspin. He said he wanted the streamer to focus less on 'cable-style shows' and put an emphasis on 'broadcast-style' shows. At an event this week called Summer Break, Netflix revealed what appears to be Jeff's vision.
Their initial stab at broadcast-style reality is currently airing with Building the Band. In that same vein, they just shared that Simon Cowell will lead a singing competition called Simon Cowell: The Next Act.
A handful of dating shows were greenlit for the next year. Harry Jowsey scored his own series called Let's Marry Harry. Additionally, Natalie Joy and Nick Viall will host a series called Age of Attraction. That will feature singles ranging from 22 to 59 going after each other without knowing each other's ages.
Other greenlit series include some of the cable-style shows Jeff said he wanted to avoid. Members Only: Palm Beach arrives in December 2025 and sounds like it belongs on Bravo. It follows a group of women in navigating the 'high-stakes hierarchies of America's most rarefied social circles.' A similar program called Calabassas Confidential drops in 2026.
Although the initial news about Netflix's new approach to reality TV made it seem like some of our favorites were at risk of cancellation, they announced a ton of returning shows along with their premiere dates. Here's what's coming:
Love is Blind UK Season 2: August 13
Love is Blind Season 9: October 1
Selling Sunset Season 9: October 29
Squid Game: The Challenge Season 2: November 4
Selling the OC Season 4: November 12
Owning Manhattan Season 2: December 5
Notably, there were a handful of shows left out of the big reality TV event. The Circle, Selling the City, and Too Hot Too Handle remain in limbo, but clearly, we've got a lot of other options arriving soon.

Fever, Caitlin Clark announce Stranger Things uniform collab
The post Fever, Caitlin Clark announce Stranger Things uniform collab appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Indiana Fever are blending basketball with one of Netflix's biggest cultural juggernauts. On Wednesday, July 23, the team launched a new limited-edition uniform inspired by Stranger Things, the hit series set in the fictional Hawkins, Indiana, per SI. The jersey completely reimagines the Fever's look, swapping out their typical colors for a retro-inspired design. Deep reds and blacks dominate the uniform, with claw-like accents and vintage Stranger Things lettering giving it a bold edge. One of the most striking details is the '011' stitched on the waistband, a direct nod to the show's iconic character, Eleven. Fever chief operating officer and general manager Amber Cox summed it up perfectly, saying, 'This jersey represents the fierce spirit of our team and the fearless energy of Stranger Things – two forces that never back down.' A Creative Partnership That Works For Caitlin Clark and the Fever, this collaboration makes perfect sense. The team and its superstar are among the most marketable names in basketball, and Stranger Things remains one of the most beloved series of the past decade. Bringing the two together creates a product that is both a fashion statement and a collector's item, especially with the show's final season premiering this winter. The Fever released a video capturing the players' reactions when they first saw the uniforms, and their excitement was palpable. Jerseys featuring Clark, Aliyah Boston, and Kelsey Mitchell are available now, with customization options for fans who want their own name or number. The team has also rolled out Stranger Things-themed t-shirts, hoodies, and other merchandise. Indiana currently sits at 12-12 after a tough loss to the New York Liberty, but Clark's anticipated return from injury could give the Fever the boost they need for a late-season playoff push. Fans won't have to wait long to see the new look in action, as the Fever will debut the uniforms Thursday against the Las Vegas Aces and wear them six more times this season.

EXCLUSIVE: Orlando Bloom Sells Beverly Hills Home For $7 Million—Weeks After Splitting From Katy Perry
Hollywood heavyweight has offloaded his sprawling Beverly Hills mansion for $7 million, weeks after he and songstress called it quits. The 48-year-old—who separated from the 'Hot N Cold' hitmaker, 40, in June—has sold his four-bedroom, four-bathroom dwelling just over a month after listing it, can exclusively reveal 'It's located on the best street in Trousdale,' listing agent Jason Oppenheim of the Oppenheim Group previously gushed. Trousdale Estates is a star-studded neighborhood where Beverly Hills meets the Bird Streets, a posh area receiving exposure in Oppenheim's new Netflix reality show, 'Selling Sunset.' The home was originally built in 1959. Mexican architect Miguel Angel Aragonés, who sold the home to Bloom, had expanded and enhanced the home's midcentury modern architecture. Bloom 'made it perfect,' said Oppenheim, who also represented the actor in the purchase of the property, referring to the renovations Bloom spent a year-and-a-half working on. Bloom's renovations included a new, zero-edge pool with an ipe wood deck. The outdoor area features bulit-in seating and a fire pit, and can be accessed via floor-to-ceiling sliders from several rooms in the house. The actor initially listed the abode in 2019 for $9 million, after having paid $7 million for the pad in 2017. The 4,011-square-foot, single-story home has four bedrooms and four baths. It sits on a hillside overlooking the city and the ocean. A mature hedge out front provides privacy. Upon purchasing the home, Bloom completed an overhaul. His renovations included a new, zero-edge pool with an ipe wood deck. The outdoor area features bulit-in seating and a fire pit, and can be accessed via floor-to-ceiling sliders from several rooms in the house. Bloom also opened up the floor plan, expanding the kitchen and allowing in more natural light. He added bespoke Poliform fixtures and finishes as well as indoor LED lighting. The master suite also had some work done. After the actor moved in, he opened the space so it could open out to the pool and has generous closet space. The master bath has a wet room with a free-standing tub and shower. There's a private patio right outside the floor-to ceiling windows. One of the home's more fascinating features is a sunken conversation pit lined with sumptuous sofas in the living room. News of the actor's home sale comes after it was revealed that Perry and Bloom had called it quits. The former couple began dating in 2016 after meeting at a Golden Globes after-party, where they fought over an In 'N' Out burger, the singer previously revealed during an episode of 'American Idol.' According to one insider, the duo—who share a 4-year-old daughter, Daisy—remain 'amicable' amid their 'split' and are focused on co-parenting their child together. 'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,' a source told Us Weekly. 'It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life.' 'They are still very much in touch and co-parenting Daisy together,' a second insider added, noting that Bloom and Perry are both planning to continue residing in Montecito, CA, to avoid disrupting their daughter's life as much as possible. 'They aren't making drastic changes for Daisy's sake. They will keep their lives in Montecito. They are prioritizing stability and consistency for Daisy.' Rumors of a split dogged the couple for years; however, Bloom appeared to confirm the latest speculation when he made a solo arrival in Venice for the wedding of Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos and his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez—with whom Perry is also understood to be close friends. Bloom was seen spending time with , Khloe Kardashian, and Kris Jenner after touching down in the Italian city just hours before the Bezos-Sanchez celebrations were due to kick off. The actor was seen grinning from ear to ear as he leaned in to embrace the trio, whom he appears to have run into while grabbing some food outside of The Gritti Palace hotel, where many of Bezos and Sanchez's guests are staying. One source told TMZ that Bloom is refusing to let the split get him down, claiming that the actor is planning to let his hair down during the wedding celebrations. 'He's the life of the party and he's gonna hit the dance floor hard!' the insider claimed. Currently, it's not known whether Perry will make an appearance at the wedding—having been one of a select few guests invited to attend Sanchez's bachelorette party back in May, alongside Kim and Eva Longoria. The pop sensation is currently in the middle of her Lifetimes Tour and is due to perform in Australia on June 26, June 27, June 29, and June 30, suggesting she will not have time to jet to Venice for the wedding festivities. When her tour wraps, however, Perry will return to Montecito—where she and Bloom are in the process of finishing renovations on a sprawling compound that they purchased in October 2020 for a staggering $14.2 million. The duo were understood to have been carrying out extensive work on the sprawling abode, which is one of two over-the-top dwellings that Perry owns in the tony, celebrity-loved enclave. It's unclear who will take ownership of the property, however records seen by indicate that only Perry's name was on the deed.
