Has Real Men been renewed for Season 2? Here's what we know:
Renewed or Cancelled? Real Men is the latest comedy on Netflix, with an energetic cast and a simple premise. Having watched the first season in its entirety, you may be wondering if this one has been renewed or cancelled. Well, wonder no more! What is Real Men about? Real Men centers on four middle-aged friends – Massimo, Luigi, Riccardo and Mattia – who find themselves forced to navigate changing gender dynamics. Through humour, the four confront bias and toxic masculinity, redefining relationships and roles amid the push for equality. Has Real Men been renewed for Season 2? At the time of writing, Real Men has not been renewed for season 2. Generally Netflix would gauge numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate. With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly. Other times, it can take months before a decision over a show's future is made. So far, Real Men has had a very mixed reaction online from critics and audiences alike. Given the way this show is set up, and the ending we receive, we're predicting that this will not be renewed for a second season. Getting Deja Vu watching this? Well, Real Men's premise is almost identical to Alpha Males, Shafted and Roosters that are all basically the same show in different languages. This has been well-trodden ground for a while now. The series has potential no doubt, but as we've seen with shows like Money Heist: Korea, just rebooting a show into a different country doesn't always work. We also know completion rate is a massive metric for these streamers and this feels like one of those shows that people will drop before the end. However, we could be completely wrong too, so take our prediction with a pinch of salt! What we know about season 2 so far: Barely anything is known about Real Men season 2 at this point given Netflix haven't officially renewed or cancelled this one. Given the first season's conclusion and the hopes from cast and crew for more, we'd likely get another 8 episode season if this one is renewed. Furthermore, the story's tone and style will likely remain very similar to what we've been graced with in season 1. We will update this page when more information becomes available, so be sure to check this page out in the near future. Would you like to see Real Men return for a second season? What's been your favourite part of the show? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

Has Sirens been renewed for Season 2? Here's what we know:
Renewed or Cancelled? Sirens is the latest comedic drama on Netflix, with an energetic cast and a simple but effective premise. Having watched the first season in its entirety, you may be wondering if this one has been renewed or cancelled. Well, wonder no more! What is Sirens about? Sirens is the latest black comedy on Netflix, created by Molly Smith Metzlerand based on her 2011 play Elemeno Pea. The story unfolds throughout one explosive weekend at a lavish beach estate. Here, Simone has let her billionaire boss take over her life, but when her sister, Devon, shows up, everything comes unravelled fast! Has Sirens been renewed for Season 2? At the time of writing, Sirens has not been renewed for season 2. Generally Netflix would gauge numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate. With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly. Other times, it can take months before a decision over a show's future is made. So far, Real Men has had a very mixed reaction online from critics and audiences alike. Given the way this show is set up, and the ending we receive, we're predicting that this will not be renewed for a second season. The series has potential no doubt, but given its based on a play and the ending is quite conclusive, given the end scene with both girls on the boat, it seems unlikely to get a second season nod. Furthermore, this has been listed as a Limited Series and while that doesn't always mean a single season only, it is a strong indicator of this. However, we could be completely wrong too, so take our prediction with a pinch of salt! What we know about season 2 so far: Barely anything is known about Sirens season 2 at this point given Netflix haven't officially renewed or cancelled this one. Given the first season's conclusion, it sees very unlikely that this will change. However, should this get the nod we'd expect another 5 episode season and a return of the same cast and crew too. We will update this page when more information becomes available, so be sure to check this page out in the near future. Would you like to see Sirens return for a second season?

Real Men OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Letizia Lamartire & Matteo Oleotto's Italian comedy series
Real Men OTT Release Date: Life, love, and masculinity - what happens when four old friends try to figure it all out in their forties? That's exactly what the upcoming Italian comedy series Real Men (Maschi Veri) dives into, with plenty of laughs, awkward truths, and heartfelt moments along the way. The series is set to release globally on Netflix starting May 21, 2025. What is Real Men all about? Real Men follows the lives of Mattia, Massimo, Riccardo, and Luigi - four long-time friends exploring relationships, careers, and what it means to be a 'man' in today's world. As they enter middle age, the rules they once lived by no longer seem to apply. From gender equality to modern dating and fatherhood, they must face their own biases and insecurities, learning how to be better partners, friends, and human beings. The journey is often hilarious. Whether they're fumbling through parenting, trying to impress their kids, or keeping up with younger colleagues at work, these four men show that it's never too late to grow up—or at least try to. Meet the cast and crew of Real Men The series stars Maurizio Lastrico as Massimo, Matteo Martari as Mattia, Francesco Montanari as Riccardo and Pietro Sermonti as Luigi. Directed by Letizia Lamartirea and Matteo Oleotto, Real Men was filmed in some of Europe's most beautiful locations, with most of the scenes shot in Rome, Italy, and even Vatican City. While the feel-good comedy is light-hearted, the themes hit home. The eight-episode show reflects on how men are redefining themselves in today's world - learning to listen, be vulnerable, and understand fairness in relationships. It's not preachy. It's just honest, often silly, and refreshingly human. Sounds exciting?

"They Basically Disappeared In The Late '90s": 24 Menu Items That Were "All The Rage" Way Back When, But Are Nonexistent Today
Nothing makes me more nostalgic than recalling the days of "fancy" dinners at the local chop house in my town, fully equipped with a smoking section and salad bar. So, I was very intrigued when redditor u/igotplans2 asked folks of the r/AskOldPeople community to share the dishes that were once popular in restaurants but then disappeared. Here are some of the "trendy" menu items that older generations recalled from way back when. 1."Nobody serves beef stroganoff anymore." —u/mynameisranger1 2."Blackened everything. It seemed like chefs were working overtime to figure out what they could make in a Cajun blackened version." —u/igotplans2 "I credit the original Cajun gourmet, Justin Wilson, for this. In the late '80s/early '90s, when more and more people were getting cable TV, he had a few different shows that reached coast to coast. He was maybe not iconic, but he was pretty popular and inspired people to have a taste of the culture and cuisine he fondly promoted." —u/Ok_Athlete_1092 3."Potato skins were pretty big in the '80s." —u/bg370 "I would order loaded potato skins as my meal until they basically disappeared in the late '90s." —u/Nagarkot1 4."I can't think of a specific dish, but there was a period in the '90s when pesto was EVERYWHERE, and so were roasted red peppers." —u/Professor-genXer "Sun-dried tomatoes were freaking EVERYWHERE for a while there." —u/GraceStrangerThanYou 5."Quiche in the late '70s and the '80s. Every fern bar restaurant like TGI Fridays featured quiches, and people were cooking quiches. The popularity of quiche even inspired the title of the book Real Men Don't Eat Quiche. That book inspired the humorous meme of 'Real Men Don't (fill in the blank).'" —u/MarshmallowSoul 6."Steak Diane. Particularly, made the correct old-school way: flambéed tableside." —u/MooPig48 "I used to flambé table side in the late '70s/early '80s. Steak Diane was my favorite. Then it just sorta dropped off menus everywhere." —u/MetalPlaygrounds 7."Salad bars. In the '80s, every restaurant had one, even some fast-food burger places like Wendy's." —u/MarshmallowSoul "Ah, the Wendy's solarium. The epitome of fine dining in the '80s." —u/80sWereAMagicalTime 8."Beef Wellington, at pricier restaurants. It's hard to find now, but not too hard to make at home for the right occasion." —u/newleaf9110 9."Fondue." —u/sretep66 "There was a whole-ass fondue restaurant in downtown Royal Oak, Michigan, in the '90s. Cheese for the appetizer, then meat and/or shrimp in oil for the main, and chocolate for the dessert. Tasty, but it took hours." —u/TeacherPatti 10."Orange Roughy. It turned out that the fish were incredibly old — up to 200 years old — and they were almost fished to extinction." —u/Gl3g 11."Bananas Foster and the whole tableside performance flambé craze from the '70s. Maybe some places still offer that? I haven't seen it on a menu in forever." —u/Careless_Ocelot_4485 12."Pineapple upside down cake." —u/Ohm1962 "I made them all the time as a kid in the '70s and a young adult in the '80s. I haven't had one in years!" —u/groomer7759 13."German chocolate cake used to be everywhere, and I haven't seen it in decades." —u/LBFilmFan 14."Crêpes as an entree was popular in the '70s, filled with chicken or crabmeat in a sauce." —u/Uvabird "The first restaurant I remember going to as a kid with exotic-looking houseplants everywhere was a '70s creperie. I didn't see another place that did crepes primarily for over 40 years." —u/Quaranj 15."Trout amandine. I miss it. I'm a terrible cook, so I can't make it myself." —u/sillyconfused "I grew up in Louisiana, and we had this everywhere! I always order it now when I see it on a menu." —u/poissonerie 16."Baked Alaska." —u/SirWarm6963 17."The Monte Cristo: a turkey, cheese, and raspberry jam sandwich fried up like French toast with powdered sugar on top — '80s food deliciousness." —u/Fizzywaterjones "I remember these as a kid in the '70s. I think it was Denny's or Howard Johnson's that had them. They were so popular at the time. We ate them without a care in the world about how unhealthy they were." —u/Granny_knows_best 18."French onion soup with a big piece of toast and melted cheese on top in the '70s." —u/mbw70 19."I will submit Swedish meatballs, which I actually just got done making for dinner. I don't know if it died out, but I never see it on the menu anywhere." —u/dimestoredavinci "Only at Ikea." —u/beaujolais98 20."Please travel back in time with me to the '60s, and let's talk about baked potato 'fixings' being brought to your table in that thing with a connected metal bowl. Sour cream? Coming up! And it was spun around that bowl so the server could spoon it into your potato. Cheese, bacon bits, and salad dressings were served the same way, including the rarely-seen (but then popular) Thousand Island and Roquefort dressings." —u/ronmimid 21."Chocolate mousse in a stem goblet. It was my favorite thing about eating out as a kid in the '80s. Then at some point, it was all crappy frozen chocolate cake." —u/Organic_Bookkeeper32 22."Around 1980, it seemed like every restaurant had fried zucchini and fried mozzarella sticks as appetizers." —u/Intelligent-Rip-2270 23."Liver and onions." —u/300-02_F41-1 "I was a cook in the late '70s, and Thursday had liver and onion specials. Man, I still remember having to cook that nasty stuff. The only people who ordered it were old people." —u/nbfs-chili 24."'A diet plate that had a hamburger patty, a lump of cottage cheese, and canned peaches." —u/splattermatters "This, but with a pineapple ring instead of the peaches, is like a nostalgic meal that reminds me of my grandmother. It was years before I realized she was always on a diet." —u/Valuable-Ordinary-54 Is there a menu item you recall being wildly popular that basically vanished?
