Elsewhere, there are some interesting numbers for the likes of Disney+ and Peacock, while FX was never going to replicate last year's outsized success, and there's another fall for the overall numbers for the broadcast networks.
RELATED:
Disney+ grew from 19 nominations last year to 28 this year thanks to a haul from Andor as well as some love for Agatha All Along and some documentaries including Beatles '64.
FX couldn't replicate last year's success, which saw series such as Shōgun take it to a record haul. It dropped from 93 nominations to 35 tpday despite big mornings for The Bear, as per usual, the Michelle Williams-led Dying For Sex and What We Do In the Shadows. Disney scored 128 nominations across all of its platforms including ABC, Disney+, FX, Hulu and Nat Geo.
Peacock grew its numbers from nine noms last year to 19 this year thanks to a raft of SNL spinoffs and The Traitors.
Comedy Central also doubled its total from last year, largely thanks to The Daily Show, while Paramount+ remained steady with seven (up from six last year)
Amazon didn't have a great morning, down considerably from last year. In 2024, it nabbed 37 nominations but this year only got 12 including four for The Boys.
Broadcast television was also down, despite a lot of awards for SNL around its 50th anniversary. ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC accounted for 99 nominations this year, down from 115 last year. ABC had 38 nominations, which was the same as last year, while Fox landed seven (six last year) and NBC got 29 (33 last year). CBS saw the biggest drop, from 38 noms to 26.

Amusement park ride stops in mid-air leaving thrill seekers dangling in terror
Shocking footage captures an amusement park ride stopped in mid-air, leaving riders dangling high above the ground. The Sol Spin ride at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California, suddenly malfunctioned Saturday afternoon as it was rotating 360 degrees. Video from the Citizen App showed about 20 riders stuck in mid-air, with many screaming, some swinging their legs, and others leaning sideways on one of the ride's six arms. "The safety of our guests is a top priority. Today the ride did not complete a full cycle as a safety precaution. The ride was stopped for approximately five minutes,' Knott's Berry Farm said in a statement to ABC7. The ride then reopened after 'a full safety inspection,' the statement continued. The Independent has reached out to the amusement park for more information. 'This thrilling ride is one for the brave,' Knott's Farm says of Sol Spin. It rotates riders in three directions simultaneously, according to the park's website. 'Sol Spin sends guests on a thrilling adventure over six stories high as they rotate in all directions on one of six spinning arms. Each arm rotates 360-degrees independent of one another providing a different experience every ride,' the website states. Social media users replied to videos of the harrowing incident, calling it a 'nightmare.' One X user remarked: 'Oh. Hell. No. One of my worst fears unlocked.' 'What a nightmare!' another said. Another recalled a similar incident last year, put it succinctly: 'Again.' Last November, the same ride left 22 people suspended in the air for two hours due to 'technical difficulties,' a spokesperson for the amusement park said at the time. Some riders left the thrill ride in wheelchairs while two female guests were taken to the hospital for further evaluation "out of an abundance of caution,' the spokesperson said in November. The California Division of Occupational Safety and Health then inspected the ride, KTLA reported.

The Coolest Hasbro Marvel and ‘Star Wars' Reveals of San Diego Comic-Con 2025
Hasbro always brings out the big guns at Comic-Con, and this year's convention was no exception. Quite literally, in fact, as both Marvel and Star Wars got some reveals that you could ostensibly count as big guns for Marvel Legends, Black Series, and Vintage Collection, and also some reveals that did actually include some actual Big Guns. This year's reveals included a ton of X-Men goodness for Marvel (anchored around a new wave of X-Men '97 figures), as well as the latest made-to-order deluxe figure in the form of everyone's satanic bestie (well, except Spider-Man's), Mephisto. Meanwhile, the galaxy far, far away went on a bit of an exclusives kick, revealing two special two-packs coming later this year, and then a grand finale: the next Haslab project, a 3.75″-figure-scaled Republic Gunship, ready to be filled with oodles of Clone Trooper figures. Check out all the latest Hasbro Marvel and Star Wars reveals below! Except for Qimir. Sorry, we were just so excited about finally getting The Acolyte's enchanting villain in figure form that we had to tell you about him separately. We already showed you Hasbro's other mask reveal of the con, Wolverine's mask from Deadpool & Wolverine, but its other reveal ventured to another arena of the MCU, with a brand-new electronically enhanced replica of Peter's spider-suit mask from Spider-Man: Homecoming. As well as a neck cowl, the 1:1 scaled mask includes moving eye pieces that can be set on either pre-programmed expression reactions, or manually activated with a remote control to express surprise, anger, or even that your spidey senses are tingling! Exclusive to Target, the latest retro-carded Uncanny X-Men figure brings Storm's iconic outfit from the time she led the X-Men as they hid out in the Australian Outback, operating in secret after the world believed them to have died fighting the mysterious Adversary. As well as fists and open hands, Storm also comes with two lightning-blasting hands to replicate her powers. Marvel's premiere marriage-wrecker is back in all his glory with a new figure in Hasbro's 'made-to-order' line of deluxe figures. Available to preorder until August 26, Mephisto includes an alternate head and alternate hands, a sword, and even swappable clothing to give him either a plastic or cloth set of cloak and loincloths—the latter so he can properly sit on his skull-covered throne, also included. We might be waiting a while for X-Men '97 season two, but we'll be waiting in style thanks to a whole host of new figures coming from Hasbro. The toymaker kicked off the '97 reveals with a series of two-packs inspired by key moments from the show: one from the series' opening episodes with Rogue and Gambit, depicting them in their basketball match gear, and two depicting the X-Men's returns to some classic costumes in the back half of the season—Wolverine and Storm in one, in their respective yellow-and-brown and black '80s gear, and Cyclops and Jean Grey in another, depicting them in their original outfits inspired by the season finale. That wasn't all for X-Men '97 though: an entire new wave of figures is on the way too, filling out some key remaining heroes (and anti-heroes) from the show's lineup. The new wave includes Sunspot, Jubilee, Morph, a casual look Logan, Cable, and the White Queen herself, Emma Frost. After lifting the lid on its first Marvel crossover set for Magic: The Gathering, Wizards of the Coast teamed up with Hasbro to reveal that it would release four exclusive variant cards as part of a series of action figures. Agent Anti-Venom, Battle Damaged Spider-Man, and Mary Jane in the Iron Spider suit will all reuse previous figures with upgraded accessories, alongside a surprise new addition in the form of Man-Wolf: the transformed werewolf alter ego of Colonel John Jameson. All four figures will come with an exclusive borderless foil promo card from the Spider-Man set, with new art inspired by their respective figures. Hasbro kicked things off in the galaxy far, far away by revealing two new multipacks that will be its exclusive offerings at upcoming conventions this fall, including New York Comic Con and MCM London. For Black Series, Revenge of the Sith's 20th anniversary gets celebrated with a new two-pack featuring Mace Windu and Darth Sidious, the latter clad in his chancellor robes and including an alternate scarred head depicting his visage after Mace deflects his Force lightning back at him. Meanwhile, the Vintage Collection will get its own version of the Jedi Spirits three-pack already seen in the Black Series a few years ago: ethereal force ghost figures of Yoda, Obi-Wan, and Anakin inspired by the climax of Return of the Jedi. However, in a fun twist, the Vintage Collection set will have one bonus not included in the earlier Black Series version: a swappable head for Anakin that lets you return Sebastian Shaw to the climax of the film, rather than Hayden Christensen's take on the character! Speaking of multipacks, two more are coming to the Black Series. The latest addition to the line's set of Jedi General and Clone Trooper two-packs puts together Anakin Skywalker (inspired by the live-action take on his Clone Wars look from Ahsoka) and Captain Rex in his modified phase-II Clone armor. The second, more elaborate two-pack celebrates the climax of Empire Strikes Back, depicting Luke and Darth Vader's duel on Bespin. Including a base replicating the gangway and platform the two duel on, the set also includes a lightsaber clash VFX piece, and a wired cloth cape on Vader for maximum dramatic effect. I'm sure you can find a way to remove one of Luke's hands, too. A trio of Vintage Collection figures were also revealed at the con, spanning the rise of the Empire era. From Clone Wars and Bad Batch, there's the Imperial Shock Trooper, the red-armored Clones of the Coruscant Guard, and from A New Hope, there are new versions of Han Solo and Chewbacca inspired by their appearances in the movie. Meanwhile, the Black Series went on a bit of a bounty hunter kick for its own reveals. From the fifth season of Clone Wars' iconic Ahsoka on trial arc, a new Asajj Ventress depicting her in her bounty hunter gear is on the way, complete with two lightsabers and a removable helmet (which I'm sure will also go great with the upcoming Bariss Offee figure, for no reason at all…). After getting so many Mandalorian figures between Book of Boba Fett and The Mandalorian lately, it's only fitting that we go back to Attack of the Clones for a newly updated Jango Fett, complete with a removable helmet. Again, I'm sure you can find a way to remove the rest of his head too to replicate Jango's battle with Mace Windu. Rounding out the Star Wars reveals was the next major addition to Hasbro's 'Haslab' crowdfunding project: a massive LAAT/i Gunship from Attack of the Clones, scaled to 3.75″ action figures. Dwarfing Hasbro's prior gunship toys, the new vehicle is a hefty 28 inches long, 30.9 inches wide, and 10.6 inches tall, and comes with two Phase-1 Clone pilot figures, as well as two different stands to depict the gunship either in flight or hovering above ground as it drops off its troops (which you'll have to grab separately, of course). The gunship itself includes opening front laser battery pods, which can hold a seated clone; opening bay doors to depict a fully detailed interior; options for alternate nose panels depicting art inspired by gunships seen in Clone Wars; and rotating turrets on the nose and back of the ship. Clocking in with a hefty $450 price tag, the Gunship requires 8,000 backers by September 8, 2025, to enter production for a fall 2026 release. Beyond the initial goal, three higher backer tiers will unlock several Jedi action figures to accompany the gunship, making their Vintage Collection debuts: 10,000 backers unlocks Coleman Trebor, 12,000 Saesee Tiin, and 14,000 Agen Kolar.

Trump Says ‘I Absolutely Love' That Stephen Colbert Got ‘Fired' and ‘I Hear Jimmy Kimmel Is Next'
President Donald Trump weighed in on CBS's announcement that it is canceling Stephen Colbert's late-night talk show — and the president is hopeful Jimmy Kimmel will be next to get axed. CBS said Thursday that it plans to end 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert' in May 2026, calling it a 'purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night.' More from Variety CBS Canceling Stephen Colbert's 'Late Show' Is an End of an Era for Television - and a Chilling Sign of What's to Come Trump Celebrates Congress Pulling $1.1 Billion in Funding From 'Atrocious' NPR and PBS: 'This Is Big!' Jimmy Kimmel Says 'F- You CBS' for Canceling 'Late Show With Stephen Colbert' as Speculation Stirs if the Series Is Ending for 'Political Reasons' 'I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings,' Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Friday morning. 'I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!' The president then went on to praise Fox News late-night comedian Greg Gutfeld, whom Trump said 'is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show,' referring to Jimmy Fallon. CBS's move to pull Colbert off the air came two weeks after Paramount Global announced that it agreed to pay Trump $16 million to settle his lawsuit alleging a '60 Minutes' interview with Kamala Harris was deceptively edited. And the announcement of 'The Late Show' cancelation came three days after Colbert had said on his show that the settlement by CBS's parent company was 'a big, fat bribe,' alleging that Paramount made the payment because it's seeking to secure the Trump administration's approval to merge with Skydance Media. 'As someone who has always been a proud employee of this network, I am offended, and I don't know if anything will ever repair my trust in this company,' Colbert joked in his July 14 opening monologue. 'But just taking a stab at it, I'd say $16 million would help.' Colbert added, 'Paramount knows they could have easily fought it because in their own words, the lawsuit was 'completely without merit.' And keep in mind, Paramount produced 'Transformers: Rise of the Beast.' They know 'completely without merit.'' Critics of Trump including Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) suggested that CBS's cancelation of Colbert's show may have been related to the Paramount settlement with the president. 'America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons,' Warren wrote on social media Thursday evening. Kimmel on Thursday wrote in an Instagram story, 'Love you Stephen' — and lashed out at CBS: 'Fuck you and all your Sheldons CBS.' Kimmel, host of ABC's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!', has been attacked by Trump in the past. In an interview last month with Variety, Kimmel was asked if he was worried that Trump would start coming after comedians in the way that he's tried to intimidate news media outlets and journalists. 'Well, you'd have to be naive not to worry a little bit. But that can't change what you're doing,' Kimmel said. 'And maybe it is naive, but I have the hope that if and when the day comes that he does start coming after comedians, that even my colleagues on the right will support my right to say what I like. Now, I could be kidding myself, and hopefully we'll never find out. But if we do, I would hope that the outrage is significant.' At Thursday's taping of 'The Late Show,' Colbert broke the news to the audience that the show was ending. 'It is a fantastic job. I wish somebody else was getting it,' he said. Colbert also thanked CBS executives and the 200 or so staffers who work on the program. To the boos of the audience at the news, Colbert said, 'Yeah, I share your feelings. It's not just the end of our show, but it's the end of 'The Late Show' on CBS. I'm not being replaced. This is all just going away.'
