‘And Just Like That…' is officially cancelled after Season 3
Sarah Jessica Parker, who has portrayed Carrie Bradshaw since 1998, shared an emotional post on Instagram in response. She reflected on her 27-year journey with the character, describing Carrie as someone who 'broke hearts, heels and habits' and expressing gratitude for the fans and creative team. Parker wrote that both she and King recognised that this chapter had reached a satisfying conclusion, calling the production process 'joy, adventure, the greatest kind of hard work alongside the most extraordinary talent.'
Cynthia Nixon, who revived her role as Miranda Hobbes, posted a touching tribute on her Instagram account, celebrating the friendships, memories, and collaborative experience. She expressed that while she will deeply miss her co-stars, 'we will always be a part of each other's lives' and teased surprises in the final episodes.
Kristin Davis, who plays Charlotte York, described herself as 'profoundly sad' in a post shared on Instagram. She thanked the 'whole beautiful cast and crew' and reassured fans of the show's lasting impact. She emphasized gratitude to the 400 artisans involved in producing the series and reiterated appreciation to viewers for their ongoing support.
Other cast members echoed similar sentiments. Actor Mario Cantone called his work on the show 'a beautiful journey,' while younger cast members such as Alexa Swinton (Rock) and Alexander Bello (Henry) shared personal reflections about growth and gratitude from their time on set. Bello noted how the series shaped his adolescence, beginning as a seventh grader and ending as he prepares to head off to college.
The decision to end the series appears to be a creative choice rather than a cancellation due to underperformance. While viewership declined over successive seasons, the producers and lead cast have framed this as closing a story on their own terms, a final creative closing for the Sex and the City universe. As the last two episodes approach, fans are engaging in reflection, anticipation, and mourning for a franchise that has spanned over two decades.

South Park pulled from HBO Max after Trump deepfake episode sparks backlash
South Park has been pulled from HBO Max following a controversial Season 27 premiere that featured a deepfake of Donald Trump. The episode, titled Sermon on the 'Mount', marked the animated show's return after nearly two years and ignited immediate backlash for its depiction of Trump nude, wandering the desert, and in bed with Satan. The episode also mocked the former president in a faux public service announcement. Trump hasn't been portrayed on South Park since 1997, making the satire especially jarring for longtime viewers. The White House responded sharply, with assistant press secretary Taylor Rogers dismissing the show as 'irrelevant' and calling the episode 'a desperate attempt for attention.' Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone sarcastically apologized at San Diego Comic-Con, saying, 'We're terribly sorry,' which drew laughter from the audience. The controversy coincides with a major streaming shift. Starting August 4, South Park will no longer be available on HBO Max. Under a $1.5 billion deal signed in July, the entire series—including 26 past seasons, feature-length specials, and 50 new episodes—will stream exclusively on Paramount+. Stephen Colbert praised the creators on The Late Show, calling the episode a message of hope and defending creative freedom in AI-driven satire. Since its 1997 debut, South Park has built a reputation for fearless humor and political satire. Despite criticism, it remains one of television's most influential and enduring animated series.

'The Conjuring: Last Rites' trailer unveils final case for Ed and Lorraine Warren
Warner Bros. has unveiled the official trailer for The Conjuring: Last Rites, marking the final chapter of the long-running horror franchise. Set for theatrical release on September 5, 2025, the film will see Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson return as real-life paranormal investigators Lorraine and Ed Warren, closing a major era in modern supernatural cinema. Directed by Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, The Nun II), Last Rites is based on the infamous Smurl haunting in West Pittston, Pennsylvania. The case, which allegedly involved intense poltergeist activity in the 1970s, captured national attention and was later chronicled in Robert Curran's book The Haunted. In the film, the Warrens assist the Smurl family in confronting a violent demonic presence that has plagued their home for years. The trailer teases classic Conjuring elements: eerie premonitions from Lorraine, Ed's growing concern, and escalating paranormal activity. A younger version of the Warrens also appears, hinting at the film's exploration of their early years. The movie stars Mia Tomlinson, Ben Hady, Elliot Cowan, Steve Coulter, Kíla Lord Cassidy, Shannon Kook, and Rebecca Calder. The script is written by Ian Goldberg, Richard Naing, and David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick. While this installment is being billed as the final film in The Conjuring series, Warner Bros. has not ruled out future projects. A prequel series is reportedly in development at HBO Max, which may explore the couple's earlier investigations — possibly including the Amityville haunting. With The Conjuring franchise grossing over $2.2 billion to date, Last Rites aims to deliver a memorable send-off to one of horror's most financially and culturally impactful series of the 21st century.
