‘The Office' spinoff ‘The Paper' set to premiere on Peacock with Oscar Nunez returning
Peacock has announced that The Paper, a new mockumentary comedy set in the universe of The Office, will premiere in September 2025.
The series follows the original documentary crew from Scranton as they relocate to Toledo, Ohio, where they begin documenting life inside a struggling local newsroom.
Set at The Truth Teller, the fictional paper at the heart of the show, The Paper introduces viewers to a fresh ensemble of characters, with Oscar Nunez reprising his role from The Office. He is joined by Domhnall Gleeson and Sabrina Impacciatore.

Gleeson plays Ned, an eager publisher trying to revive the newspaper's fortunes, while Impacciatore stars as Esmeralda, one of the staff members trying to navigate the chaos.
Created by Greg Daniels, the mind behind The Office, and co-produced with Michael Koman, the new series is billed as a reflection on the state of local journalism, told with the same offbeat humour that made its predecessor a hit.
During Peacock's upfront presentation in New York, the cast presented an exclusive preview clip. Gleeson described the show as focusing on 'underdog characters that are banding together to keep journalism alive.'

Love Island USA season 7 premiere kicks off with surprise twist, delayed stream, and steamy couple shakeups
Love Island USA Season 7 made a dramatic entrance despite a 40-minute delay due to technical issues on Peacock's end, as reported by Screen Rant's Cher Thompson. The new season opened with a musical number led by returning host Ariana Madix and introduced ten new Islanders. A surprising twist gave the female contestants the power to kiss and choose their partners, a shakeup from previous seasons. The initial pairings were: Chelley Bissainthe & Austin Shepard, Huda Mustafa & Jeremiah Brown, Olandria Carthen & Taylor Williams, Bell-A Walker & Nic Vansteenberghe, and Yulissa Escobar & Ace Greene. Before these couplings, the women each kissed two of the men, and the men could be stolen at any moment. The result was a fast-paced and unpredictable shuffle that set the tone for the season. Two late arrivals, Bombshells Charlie Georgiou and Cierra Ortega, added even more intrigue. They kissed all the Islanders during a blindfolded game where each contestant had a chance to secretly kiss someone outside their pairing. This bold move stirred anticipation for the drama to come. Early dynamics are already shifting. Chelley showed a clear interest in TikTok star Ace Greene, despite her pairing with Austin. Huda revealed she has a daughter, a detail that could influence her relationship with Jeremiah. Belle-A's reluctance to get physical with Nic may also present challenges. Meanwhile, Yulissa's seemingly strategic behavior contrasted with the more open and honest interactions among Chelley, Olandria, and Belle-A. Despite the chaotic start, Love Island USA Season 7 has set the tone for a summer filled with emotional depth, evolving relationships, and surprising twists. With nightly episodes (except Wednesdays) on Peacock, the drama is just getting started.

BTS Jin transforms Tonight Show stage into giant bed for cozy performance and playful interview with Jimmy Fallon
On Wednesday night, May 21, BTS member Jin returned to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon with a memorable performance and interview. For his appearance, he transformed the stage into a giant bed, creating a cozy atmosphere for his live rendition of 'Don't Say You Love Me,' the lead single from his newly released second solo EP, Echo. The seven-track EP, which follows his November debut solo project Happy, was released on May 16. Following his intimate performance in Studio 6B, Jin sat down with host Jimmy Fallon for an engaging interview. In a playful twist, he reversed the usual roles by taking over Fallon's desk and interviewing the late-night host himself. This marked Jin's second solo visit to the show, following his first appearance in late 2024. BTS has maintained a strong relationship with The Tonight Show, first appearing in 2018 with performances of their hits 'Idol' and 'I'm Fine.' The group returned in 2020 with multiple appearances, including virtual performances during the pandemic, and again in 2021 to promote their chart-topping singles 'Butter' and 'Permission to Dance.' Earlier this year in March, Jin's bandmate j-hope made his solo debut on the show, also opting for a relaxed vibe by wearing fluffy bunny slippers during his performance. Fans eager to catch Jin's full performance and interview can tune in to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on NBC at 11:35 p.m. ET or stream the episode on Peacock.
