Your Friends & Neighbors Finale Reveals Who Killed Paul — Will You Come Back for Season 2?
Your Friends & Neighbors wrapped up its freshman season by answering one big question — who killed Paul? — and left us pondering a few others. Friday's finale opens with Coop envisioning himself lying by the pool while Mel and his kids call him to come swimming. It was just a dream, though, and the cold, hard reality remains: He's facing a murder charge and a possible sentence of life in prison after being found at the scene of Paul's death. He can't even take refuge in golf: The country club wants to suspend his membership until his 'current difficulties' are cleared up. He signs over his half of the house to Mel just in case (which leaves her worried) and then spends the night with his kids and his sister Ali, whose acoustic performance leads to a rambling confession about her affair with her married ex Bruce. But hey, at least she got the crowd to chant 'F–k Bruce.' More from TVLine What to Watch in June: Your Guide to 110+ Premieres Across Broadcast, Cable and Streaming Dept. Q Mysteriously Disappeared From Netflix Hours After Premiere - But Now It's Back And Just Like That Premiere: Carrie and Aidan's Long-Distance Romance Hits an Embarrassing Snag (Plus, Grade It!) Coop gently nudges Ali to get back on her meds, since he might not be around to keep her in line, and he gives a pricey watch of his to his son Hunter. His daughter Tori gives him the cold shoulder at first, but eventually cuddles up with him to watch a movie, sobbing on his chest. Coop asks his lawyer Kat about a plea deal, and she thinks she can get his charges down to manslaughter, and he'd serve six years. He's furious that he'd have to go away that long for something he didn't do, but considering the alternative, he agrees to make a deal. When Mel notices Coop's watch on her son's wrist, she marches over to Coop's and confronts him: 'If you ever loved me, don't bulls–t me right now.' He admits he's contemplating a plea deal, and she begs him not to, imploring him to try harder to save himself than he did to save their marriage. So Coop tells his lawyer Kat he's not taking the deal: 'I am guilty of a lot of things, but I am not guilty of this.' He wants the cops to look into Sam again, and Kat points out that her phone records prove she was in Boston — but Coop doesn't see his number anywhere in the records. They figure out she had a burner phone, but the cops say they can't do anything unless they physically have the phone. So Coop enlists his old partner in crime Elena to volunteer her housekeeping services to Sam, and when Sam leaves to run errands, Elena lets Coop in to snoop for the burner phone. Meanwhile, the cops get a new report from the medical examiner: Two of Paul's three gunshot wounds came after he died. Hmmm… Elena doesn't find the phone — but she does find something else. When Sam gets home, Coop is waiting to confront her: 'Nobody killed Paul. He shot himself.' He lays out how Sam shot her ex-husband's dead body to make it look like a murder, because she wouldn't be able to cash his lucrative insurance policy if he took his own life. He also shows her what Elena found hidden away: Paul's bloody suicide note. Sam fesses up, explaining how Paul called her on FaceTime and shot himself right in front of her. She rushed home, leaving her primary phone with her parents in Boston, and staged the scene to look like a murder. And why did she frame Coop? 'You should've been kinder to me,' she tells him — and when he tries to walk away, she pulls a gun on him. He doesn't flinch, though: 'You're not a killer either,' he says as he calls her bluff and walks away. In the end, Sam gets arrested, but Paul was already dead, and she never filed the insurance claim, so she'll likely only get a slap on the wrist. Coop has a warm reunion with Mel and his kids, and his old boss Jack asks him to come back to work, even offering him a fat profit share to seal the deal. Coop attends a swanky fundraiser gala, and everyone welcomes him back into high society with open arms. ('Nothing like beating a murder rap to give you a social boost,' Coop quips.) As Coop slow-dances with Tori, Mel watches from afar, and Nick says he blames himself for their split: 'I fell in love with a woman who was in love with someone else.' Mel then joins Coop for a slow dance, and they both pledge to stay single for a while. He doesn't hold a grudge against Sam, and Mel wonders how he can forgive her so quickly. 'I wasn't in love with her,' he points out, giving her a knowing smile. Oh! As Coop leaves the fundraiser, he stops a mom named Jules and hints that he knows about her SAT cheat sheets — and warns her not to send her daughter to Princeton to compete with Tori. And while Jack and Liv wait for Coop to join them on a private jet to meet a client (and Ali spray-paints 'F–k Bruce' on Bruce's garage door), Coop instead heads to Jack's empty house and robs it, noting: 'It's time to get back to work.' is already renewed for Season 2 — will you return for another season?

Fallout Season 2: Everything We Know About the Amazon Megahit's Return
More Fallout is coming. Eventually. More from TVLine Lester Holt Signs Off as NBC Nightly News Anchor - Will You Miss Him? What to Watch in June: Your Guide to 110+ Premieres Across Broadcast, Cable and Streaming Nicole Kidman Is Kay Scarpetta, Jamie Lee Curtis Her Sister in First Look at Patricia Cornwell Thriller Adaptation It has already been more than a year since Season 1 of the Prime Video series, based on the popular video game franchise, exploded onto our screens. But rest assured, there is much more to look forward to, as detailed below. Fallout — which with its freshman run delivered Prime Video's most-watched season globally since Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power — is set 200 years after the apocalypse, where Lucy (played by Ella Purnell), a denizen of a luxury fallout shelter/'vault,' found her peaceful nature tested when she was forced to the toxic (?) surface to locate her father (Twin Peaks' Kyle MacLachlan). Aaron Moten (NeXT) co-stars as Maximus, a young soldier rising in the ranks of the militaristic Brotherhood of Steel, while Walton Goggins (Justified) plays Western star Cooper Howard and his post-apocalyptic persona The Ghoul, a morally fluid bounty hunter. The three parties collided in Season 1 when chasing a researcher (Evil's Michael Emerson) who was in possession of an artifact with the potential to change the power dynamic in this dystopian hellscape. What all do we know about Season 2, and the hit series' future beyond that? Well…. Oh, it was big. Huge, really. Season 1 became one of Prime Video's top three most-watched titles ever, and it set multiple records along the way. In Nielsen's weekly U.S. rankings of streaming originals, Fallout 1) racked up the most minutes viewed for any Prime Video title, 2) became the first series outside of the Netflix platform to rack up 2 billion minutes viewed in consecutive weeks, and 3) was the first Prime Video series to top the Overall Top 10 chart three times in a row. What's more, Nielsen's 'Streaming Unwrapped' report for 2024 crowned Fallout the Top New Original Drama Series after it amassed 11.95 billion minutes streamed last year. Season 1 garnered 16 Emmy nominations, including for Outstanding Drama Series, Lead Actor in a Drama (Walton Goggins), Special Visual Effects, Prosthetic Makeup, and Production Design. (It wound up grabbing Emmy gold once, for Outstanding Music Supervision.) Fallout's many kudos also include three Writers Guild of America Award nominations, Television Critics Association Award nods for Best Drama and Best New Program, and it won at the Art Directors Guild Awards for Excellence in Production Design for a One-Hour Fantasy Single-Camera Series. The new season will 'pick up in the aftermath of Season 1's epic finale and take audiences along for a journey through the wasteland of the Mojave to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas,' says Amazon. Said finale saw Lucy process a gut-punch of an epiphany — that her father, Hank, had a hands-on role in bombing Shady Sands — and in turn ally with the Ghoul to, among other things, go find his (meaning, Cooper Howard's) family. 'Will Lucy be able to hang on to her core?' in the wake of that bombshell and not devolve like The Ghoul, co-showrunner Graham Wagner asked in a THR Q&A. 'It's sort of a nature vs. nurture question. Has her time in a happy cozy vault steeled her against that? We will find out. What we're already into in Season 2 is exploring how far we want to push this character, how much do we want to see her hang onto to herself. It becomes the game of the show in its own way.' Goggins, meanwhile, told Deadline in February (see video below) that while he personally thought 'Season 1 was extraordinary,' the second season 'blows it out of the water, what these writers have done and the artisans that have come together to tell this story. It's really gonna be something. I can't wait for people to see it.' Walton Goggins teases #Fallout Season 2 : 'I thought Season 1 was extraordinary… This blows it out of the water' — Deadline (@DEADLINE) February 11, 2025 Returning cast members from Season 1 include, of course, Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets, Sweetpea), Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones) and Aaron Moten (Emancipation, Father Stu) — as Ella, The Ghoul/Cooper Howard and Maximus — as well as Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks) as Lucy's father Hank, Moisés Arias (The King of Staten Island) as Lucy's kid brother Norm, and Frances Turner (The Boys) as Cooper's wife/high-ranking Vault-Tec exec Barb Howard. The only reported cast addition for Season 2 is Macaulay Culkin in the recurring role of 'a crazy, genius-type character.' Culkin, of course, is best known for playing resourceful tyke Kevin McCallister in the 1990 holiday smash Home Alone and its 1992 sequel Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. As a child actor, he also had memorable roles in My Girl and The Good Son. Culkin returned to acting as an adult, earning acclaim for his work in Party Monster and Saved!, among others. He more recently co-starred in Season 10 of FX's American Horror Story, dubbed Double Feature, and HBO's The Righteous Gemstones. If one looks closely once Season 2 arrives, you might detect that Fallout relocated its base of operations from New York to California (specifically, Santa Clarita aka NCIS-land) after receiving a $25 million tax credit. (Season 1 also filmed in New Jersey, Utah and, for the Wasteland scenes, Kolmanskop, Namibia.) As one result of the move to the West Coast, you might spy 'less gray skies,' co-showrunner Geneva Robertson-Dworet told THR. 'That was tricky about New York. We were shooting partially in the summer and partially in the middle of winter. And some of those exteriors, the gray skies, they're just not as beautiful.' Would you settle for a release month…? At Prime Video's Upfronts presentation on May 12, cast members Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten and Walton Goggins appeared onstage to announce that Season 2 will premiere this December, in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. That means some 20 months will have elapsed between seasons. TVLine will of course keep you posted on the precise release date for Season 2. In a way, there already is! At Amazon's annual Upfront presentation held May 12, it was also announced that Fallout has already been renewed for a third season. 'The holidays came a little early this year — we are thrilled to be ending the world all over again for a third season of Fallout,' said executive producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy. 'On behalf of our brilliant cast and crew, our showrunners Geneva [Robertson-Dworet] and Graham [Wagner], and our partners at Bethesda, we're grateful to our incredible collaborators at Amazon MGM Studios and to the amazing fans as we continue our adventures in the wasteland together.' So, then, maybe the question is: Will there be a Season 4, and maybe more? 'Look, we've talked about three seasons and we've talked about five seasons…,' co-showrunner Graham Wagner told THR. 'Given the success of the show, five is suddenly feeling a little more appealing. But the industry is a temperamental thing and we kind of have to go into each season being like, 'This is our last.'

Lester Holt Signs Off as NBC Nightly News Anchor — Will You Miss Him?
Lester Holt has officially left the anchor's chair. The veteran newsman delivered his final broadcast as the anchor of NBC Nightly News on Friday, and as usual, the bulk of the half-hour was devoted to delivering the day's news. Holt did take time at the end, however, to commemorate his time behind the desk: 'As an anchor, it's been an honor to lead this program, and an honor to be welcomed into your homes. I'm so grateful for your trust.' More from TVLine Liev Schreiber, Stephen Graham and Zazie Beetz to Star in Apple TV+ Adaptation of Lars Kepler's Joona Linna Crime Novels As Doctor Odyssey's Fate Hangs in the Balance, Joshua Jackson Thanks John Oliver for Viral Season 2 Renewal Plea Netflix's The Gentlemen Reveals Full Season 2 Cast as Filming Begins in UK Holt added that 'around here, facts matter, words matters, journalism matters… and you matter.' He brought out the entire Nightly News staff to join him on stage, and he urged viewers: 'Please continue to take care of yourself and each other, and I'll do the same.' That led into a montage of Holt's most memorable moments as anchor, including touring the sites of natural disasters and interviewing newsmakers. When the montage ended, Holt was clearly emotional as he said: 'It has been quite a ride. Thanks, everybody.' Holt announced in February that he was stepping down as NBC Nightly News anchor, a role he's held since 2015. Moving forward, he will focus on NBC News' Dateline, which he has anchored since 2011. 'After 10 years, 17 if you include my years on the weekends, the time has come for me to step away from my role as anchor of Nightly News,' Holt said in a statement to NBC staffers. 'It has truly been the honor of a lifetime to work with each of you every day, keeping journalism as our true north and our viewers at the center of everything we do.' Holt will be replaced by Tom Llamas, whose ascension to the Nightly News anchor chair was first reported in March. Llamas has served as a senior national correspondent for NBC News and reported for NBC Nightly News alongside Holt. He also anchored Top Story with Tom Llamas, a daily primetime newscast for NBC News NOW, and contributed to various NBC News outlets, including Today. His first broadcast as NBC Nightly News anchor airs this Monday, June 2. Will you miss Holt? Let us know what you think of NBC's big anchor swap in a comment below.

M*A*S*H Star Loretta Swit Dead at 87
Loretta Swit, who won two Emmys playing 'Hot Lips' Houlihan on the classic CBS sitcom M*A*S*H, has died at the age of 87, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Swit died just after midnight on Friday of suspected natural causes at her New York City home, her publicist Harlan Boll says. More from TVLine Phil Robertson, Duck Dynasty Star, Dead at 79 Uche Ojeh, Husband of Today Co-Host Sheinelle Jones, Dead at 45 - Watch On-Air Announcement R.I.P., George Wendt: Ted Danson and More Cheers Co-Stars Pay Tribute ('Humble, Hilarious and Full of Heart') A native of New Jersey, Swit trained as an actor, dancer and singer, landing early guest roles on shows like Hawaii Five-O, Gunsmoke and Mission: Impossible. Then she booked the role of head nurse Margaret 'Hot Lips' Houlihan on M*A*S*H, which debuted on CBS in 1972. A comedy following military doctors and nurses during the Korean War (and mirroring the then-current Vietnam War), M*A*S*H became a smash hit, climbing into the Nielsen Top 10 and eventually running for 11 seasons. Swit's Houlihan was a tough-as-nails nurse who did things by the book and disapproved of the immature antics displayed by the likes of Alan Alda's Hawkeye. She softened in later seasons, though, and the two even shared a long kiss in the series finale. Swit earned 10 Emmy nominations for best supporting actress in a comedy for her work on M*A*S*H, taking home the trophy in 1980 and 1982. After M*A*S*H ended in 1983 (with a series finale that drew more than 100 million viewers), Swit went on to make guest appearances on shows like The Love Boat and Murder, She Wrote. She also played the role of Christine Cagney in the original TV movie of Cagney & Lacey, but she wasn't able to continue with the series due to contractual obligations, with Sharon Gless eventually taking over the role. Swit reunited with her M*A*S*H co-stars Alda, Gary Burghoff (Radar), Jamie Farr (Klinger) and Mike Farrell (B.J. Hunnicutt) for a 50th anniversary special, M*A*S*H: The Comedy That Changed Television, that aired on Fox in 2024.
