Roundups #31: Jack Black Reprises His Role As Po In New Kung Fu Panda Series For Netflix, New Amsterdam To End With Season 5, Harley Quinn Animated Series Is Getting A Spinoff And Selena Gomez Developing New Comedy Series 15 Candles

Kung Fu Panda is back with a new series on Netflix

Netflix has commissioned a new “Kung Fu Panda” animated series with Jack Black returning to voice the main character, Po.

In the series, titled “Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight,” a mysterious pair of weasels set their sights on a collection of four powerful weapons. Po must leave his home to embark on a globe-trotting quest for redemption and justice that finds him partnered up with a no-nonsense English knight named Wandering Blade. Together, these two mismatched warriors set out on an epic adventure to find the magical weapons first and save the world from destruction — and they may even learn a thing or two from each other along the way.

The series marks Black’s first time back as Po since the 2016 film “Kung Fu Panda 3.” He previously voiced the character in the first two films in the franchise, which were released in 2008 and 2011. In total, the three films have grossed over $1.8 billion at the global box office.

New Amsterdam cancelled after 5 seasons

Season 5 of the Ryan Eggold-starring drama, which begins in the fall, will also be the show's shortest, with just 13 episodes to wrap up the story of Dr. Max Goodwin and his many battles against hospital bureaucracy. This will take its run to just under 90 episodes.

Why Is 'New Amsterdam' Canceled?

When deciding whether or not to renew a show, a network has to weigh how much it costs with how popular it is—and obviously, more expensive shows need to be more popular to justify their continued existence.

Clearly, the ratings of New Amsterdam had fallen to a point where NBC was not getting enough viewers for its investment. This is despite it still being a solid ratings performer, with the current season drawing in an average of 7 million people an episode across all platforms, according to Deadline.

Harley Quinn is getting a spinoff

DC has been killing it when it comes to their superhero-centric programming on HBO Max. One of the many highlights has been the Harley Quinn animated series starring Kaley Cuoco. While fans have been anxiously waiting for the third season for a while now, series co-creator Patrick Schumacker just announced that a spin-off series is in the works at the streamer.

The series is currently titled Noonan's and would center around Kite Man after he buys Noonan’s Bar. This is an iconic hangout spot for the criminal underworld in Gotham City and the location itself first appeared in The Demon Annual in 1993. The bar is named after the hitman Sean Noonan.

When talking about the show during the panel Schumacker said, “He tries to run the bar by himself, but it doesn't turn out so easy”. The co-creator would go on to reveal more saying, “We have Harley and Ivy appear in the first episode, but after that we have with different goons and villains appearing every episode like Lex Luthor and Bane. It will be kind of like Cheers for supervillains."

Selena Gomez Has Been Tapped To Bring A Coming-Of-Age Classic To The Small-Screen

Teaming up with producers Tanya Saracho and Gabriela Revilla Lugo, the Only Murders in the Building star is developing a new comedy series that will reimagine John Hughes’ 1984 rom-com, Sixteen Candles, with a Latinx spin.

The half-hour sitcom, titled 15 Candles, will follow four young Latinas entering high school “as they overcome their feelings of invisibility while exploring what it means to leave childhood behind through the lens of the traditional female coming-of-age rite: the quinceañera,”.

Meet Amado Carrillo Fuentes The Man Behind Telemundo Africa's Lord Of The Skies

As the legend goes, Amado Carrillo Fuentes left his small village around the age of 12, telling people: “I won’t come back until I’m rich.” He kept his word. Carrillo went on to build a multibillion-dollar empire and become Mexico’s most powerful drug trafficker.

The head of the Juarez cartel, Carrillo earned the nickname “Lord of the Skies” because he used private planes to smuggle cocaine. He filled the pockets of Mexican officials to keep them looking the other way and leveraged the threat of violence to keep people in line.

As his power grew, however, so did scrutiny from Mexican and U.S. officials. Carrillo fatefully decided to undergo plastic surgery to evade detection. But instead of leaving the hospital a new man, Amado Carrillo Fuentes died in his recovery room.

Matched

The Rise Of The Powerful ‘Lord Of The Skies’
Born in the small village of Guamuchilito in Sinaloa, Mexico, on Dec. 17, 1956, Amado Carrillo Fuentes grew up surrounded by agriculture — and drugs. Though his father was a modest landowner, his uncle, Ernesto Fonseca Carrillo, led the Guadalajara cartel.

Around the age of 12, Carrillo announced that he was leaving his parents and 10 siblings to make it rich. He traveled to Chihuahua with nothing more than a sixth-grade education and began to learn the ins and outs of drug trafficking from his uncle. Ernesto eventually put his nephew in charge of overseeing drug shipments.

From there, Carrillo shot up the ladder. He consolidated his power in 1993 by assassinating his friend and former boss, Rafael Aguilar Guajardo. With Aguilar dead, Carrillo took over his Juarez cartel. He soon earned the nickname “Lord of the Skies” because he chartered planes to smuggle cocaine from Colombia to the U.S.–Mexico border.

For the most part, however, Carrillo was careful to stay out of the limelight — even as his power and fortune grew. After his death, the Washington Post called Carrillo one of Mexico’s “most mysterious men.”

“He lived discreetly – no wild shootouts, no late-night disco hopping,” the paper wrote. “Few pictures of him appeared in newspapers or on television. He was from a new breed, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration liked to say, a low-profile kingpin who behaved like a businessman.”

Amado Carrillo Fuentes seems to have viewed drug trafficking as exactly that — a business. To a priest who encouraged him to leave his life of crime, Carrillo demurred. “I can’t retire,” he told the priest. “I have to keep going. I have to support thousands of families.”

Behind the scenes, though, Carrillo was very much a drug lord. He amassed a net worth of $25 billion — a fortune second only to Pablo Escobar’s — ordered some 400 murders, and enjoyed torturing his victims.

Carrillo also held influence over Mexican government officials, whom he paid to turn a blind eye to his activities and take out his rivals. By targeting his competition, they could claim to be anti-drug while leaving the Lord of the Skies alone. Even Mexico’s top anti-drug official was in Carrillo’s pocket.

Matched

Regardless, his activity drew attention from law enforcement. In 1997, he barely evaded capture when Mexican agents raided his sister’s wedding. The Lord of the Skies had grown, in the words of a senior U.S. drug official, “too big, too notorious.”

Well-aware of his own notoriety, Amado Carrillo Fuentes decided to take a drastic step. As he mused about moving his operation to Chile, Carrillo resolved to undergo severe plastic surgery to change his appearance.

The Surgery That Killed Amado Carrillo Fuentes
On July 4, 1997, Amado Carrillo Fuentes checked into a private Mexico City clinic under the alias Antonio Flores Montes. For eight hours, he underwent surgery to drastically alter his face and remove 3.5 gallons of fat from his body.

At first, it seemed that the procedure had gone off without a hitch. Nurses wheeled Carrillo to Room 407 in the Santa Monica hospital that evening and left him to recover. But a doctor doing rounds early the next morning found Carrillo deceased in bed. The drug lord was 42 years old.

After confirming Carrillo’s identity via fingerprints, the D.E.A. and the U.S. government announced that Amado Carrillo Fuentes had died of a heart attack. Their announcement caused ripples of shock — and disbelief. Many believed that Carrillo had faked his death and skipped town.

To counter this idea, officials released a gruesome photo of Amado Carrillo Fuentes’ corpse at his funeral. But rather than tame the rumors that he’d faked his death, the photo inflamed them.

Matched

“Those aren’t his hands,” an unconvinced barber told a journalist from The Los Angeles Times, after seeing the photograph of Amado Carrillo Fuentes in a newspaper. “Those are the hands of a classical pianist.”

Carrillo’s cousin gave later credence to the rumors that Amado Carrillo Fuentes’ death was faked when he declared, after the drug lord’s funeral, “Amado is fine. He is alive.”

Carrillo’s cousin went on, “He had surgery and also had surgery practiced on some poor unfortunate person to make everybody believe it was him, including the authorities.”

American agents vehemently denied that Carrillo had slipped through their fingers. “The rumor [that Carrillo is alive] has as much credibility as the millions of sightings of the late Elvis Presley,” the D.E.A. said in a statement.

Indeed, allies of Amado Carrillo Fuentes didn’t act as if he had simply skipped town. Four months after his death, the three doctors responsible for his surgery were found in steel barrels along the side of a highway.

They had been partially encased in cement before someone had ripped out their fingernails, burned them, and killed them. Two doctors had cables still wrapped around their necks; the third had been shot.

Further muddying the waters, the doctors were later charged with murder. Mariano Herran Salvatti, the head of Mexico’s anti-drug agency, said at the time that that the doctors had “with malice and with the intention of taking [Carrillo’s] life… applied a combination of medicines that resulted in the death of the trafficker.”

Matched

The Aftermath Of Amado Carrillo Fuentes’ Death
The sudden death of Amado Carrillo Fuentes left a power vacuum. After the botched surgery, his top lieutenants battled each other to fill his shoes, as his old rivals fought to supplant the powerful Juarez cartel.

Out of the fray, Carrillo’s younger brother Vicente Carrillo Fuentes — called “The Viceroy” — seized power. But he couldn’t stop the cartel’s decline. Battered by the powerful Sinaloa cartel, led by El Chapo, the Juarez cartel suffered a prolonged slump, capped off by Vincente’s arrest in 2014.

As for the Lord of the Skies himself? He’s enjoyed an odd, second life as a character on Netflix’s Narcos, played by José María Yazpik.

But outside of the world of television, says the D.E.A., Fuentes is gone — dead. He may have escaped “earthly justice,” noted D.E.A. administrator Thomas A. Constantine, but he is “sure there is a special place in hell for those like him who have destroyed countless lives and devastated families on both sides of the border.”

That is, unless he did slip away under cover of night with a new face, a new name, and the determination to operate forevermore from the shadows.

Never Say Goodbye Reportedly Getting A New Timeslot On Star Life While The Channel Reduce Primetime To Just 6 Days, Introduces Star Special And Reality Shows In April

According to sources, Star Life will undergo some lineup following e.tv which scrapped several international series for more local productions. Unlike e.tv, viewers aren't losing anything on Star Life and you'll hardly notice the changes.

Geet will go off air in the coming month as Never Say Goodbye occupies the space once used for the repeat. All other shows such as A Lockdown Love Story, Dream Girl and Happy Hearts even the films retain their timeslots.

- Abhi and Pragya actors quit Twist Of Fate currently seen on Zee World

- The Homemaker, The Accidental Mayor and Happily Ever After coming soon to Star Life
- Two new series coming to Zee World: Luck In My Fate and Beauty And The Beast
- Upcoming programming for Telemundo Africa
- Upcoming programming for Star Life and Zee World

The only downside is that the channel will no longer offer new episodes to these series on Sundays as Bollywood films and two rumoured attractions Star Special and the reality slot are the primetime attractions.

Reality slot doesn't need much brief as it is in the name. Star Special is said to be a slot which recaps on past series such as Mismatched, Forbidden Love, Eternal Love, Made For Each Other, Chasing My Heart and An Usual Tale.

Basically Geet was replaced with Star Special, the only complication is while other shows air 6 days SS airs weekly not to mention its like watching WWE Raw highlights where consumers only get a fragment of the actual show.

These changes are said to occur from April 11th same time as e.tv's schedule adjustment. Only time will tell whether these changes will make or break the channel.

- Nurses March 2022 teasers
- Lord Of The Skies season 8 has been confirmed

If I had to be honest, these changes will actually give viewers time to explore other outlets and the arrangement of this schedule is not bad. Most Indian channels don't offer this much variety and for Star Life to give reality some airtime is a big improvement on their part.

FOX Life is expected to close down within the region later this month following ESPN Classic in 2021. According to Señal News, several linear channels including Disney XD, Disney Junior, Nat Geo Wild, FXM, and ESPNU are expected to follow in the coming months.

Señal News hasn't always been accurate but The Walt Disney Company has been closing down several channels across the world due to Disney+ so the idea of it happening in the US doesn't seem far fetched.

The Walt Disney Company is on the road to close down 100 channels globally and as seen in the UK and Asia brands like Disney Channel and National Geographic ceased to exist.

The channels in question are justified Disney XD has become another Nicktoons, Disney+ needs more content and what better way than to source from National Geographic and there's several other movie channels so it wouldn't make much of a difference if FXM no longer existed.

“As part of some exciting changes and launches in April, the eRewind channel will end on 1 April,” the broadcaster said in a statement.

The eRewind channel, which broadcasts what it describes as “golden classics” and “yesteryear TV favourites”, launched on Openview in November 2019.

The broadcaster said that the new channel would cover a range of genres, including lifestyle, food, music, art, and general entertainment. It will also broadcast certain sitcoms and dramas.

Openview said it would also broadcast international Viceland content.

eXposed will feature TV shows such as Chasing Famous, States of Undress, F**K That’s Delicious, Most Expensivest by 2 Chainz, and TMZ on TV — to list a few.

Openview viewers can tune in to eXposed from 4 April on channel 109.

SuperSport Launches A Brand New Sports Channel In Ethiopia And The Rest Of Africa

MultiChoice is expected to close 4 channels by the end of the month and consumers will wonder why they're paying more for less channels. DreamWorks was recently added onto the DStv platform with the pay-tv company extending the reach of KIX and PBS Kids.

According to sources, SuperSport will soon be adding a new sports channel SuperSport Liyu later this week for offering the best of Ethiopian football. Of course the channel won't be made available to South Africa or at least for now.

SuperSport Liju will take up the space of the nonexistent horseracing lifestyle channel Racing240 in these regions while MultiChoice SA customers continue watching the Tellytrack killer.

SuperSport once offered Ethiopian football across their stations and to South African consumers on SuperSport 10 before it turned into SuperSport Variety. During its run, it become the most sought after attraction by viewers.

Based on its performance, SuperSport decided to give Ethiopia its own football channel which can be viewed in most parts of Africa just not in South Africa or at least not initially.

Just like Big Brother Naija, even Ethiopian football was popular amongst customers in South Africa particularly on lower bouquets like Family and Access so it wouldn't surprise me if MultiChoice placed it under another channel number for those customers if it were to be made available to South Africa.

Compared to Family, Access customers don't have a lot on their plate in this section aside from SuperSport Variety 4 and Racing240.

On top of the new channel, DStv in the rest of Africa are hosting an open window for a couple of SuperSport channels including WWE and Motorsport on DStv and GOtv through the app and decoder.

New Episodes
In Property Brothers: Forever Home, Drew and Jonathan Scott are on a mission to help couples transform their current houses into forever homes—a place where they can put down roots and happily spend the rest of their lives. The homeowners aren’t looking to flip properties or make a quick buck, they know their house is “the one” and have plans to grow old together. But before that can happen, they need Drew and Jonathan to unlock its full potential. First, Drew takes the homeowners on a tour of nearby renovated homes to learn about the features they can and can’t live without. Then, Jonathan presents two design options that showcase different ways their house can be reimagined. Stakes are high and the pressure is on as the brothers tackle full-scale renovations, with design and demo hurdles along the way, to turn these houses into their forever homes.

Room To Improve - Dermot's Home S1
SPECIAL SEASON
Can Ireland’s most famous architect separate this head from his heart as he embarks on his most personal project yet – the family home of his dreams? After 13 blissful years in the house where he and his wife raised their three children – the place where he created his first ‘room to improve’ – architect Dermot Bannon is moving on. In this special season of Room To Improve, a new home awaits Dermot in the form of a rundown 1930s house in Drumcondra – soon to be fitted with a massive two storey extension that will triple its size. For the first time ever, Dermot is both client and architect – a dual role in which he’s far from comfortable. And as he struggles to realise his vision, he’ll need all the help he can get.
