TROY STORY
3 November
Monday 21:05
In a landmark two-part series, we set out to explore the legacy of one of the greatest names in archaeology, in search of the truth behind the most enduring legend of all ti me. It’s been 150 years since entrepreneur turned archaeologist, Heinrich Schliemann, published the results of his dig at a Turkish hill known as Hissarlik. He had, he claimed, discovered the fabled city where the Greeks and Trojans fought over Helen of Troy, and which met a dreadful fate when the Greeks hid a band of warriors inside a wooden horse to get inside the city walls. It seemed as if the Trojan War had shifted from the world of myth into the pages of history. After decades of new discoveries, it’s ti me to look at the latest fi ndings and apply scientific techniques that researchers could only dream of just a few years ago. Now the Troy Story isn’t just a search for a legend, but could be a turning point in history, the apocalyptic collapse of multiple civilisations that signalled the end of the Bronze Age.

Netflix Looking To Bid For Warner Bros.

Also Read

Netflix is actively exploring a bid for Warner Bros Discovery’s studio and streaming business, retaining a financial advisor and gaining access to financial information, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

The video streaming service has hired Moelis & Co, the investment bank that advised Skydance Media on its successful bid for Paramount Global, to evaluate a prospective offer, two of the sources said. Netflix also has been granted access to the data room, which contains the financial details needed to make a bid, according to two of the sources familiar with the matter.

Warner Bros Discovery and Moelis declined to comment. Netflix could not be reached for comment.

We’ve been very clear in the past that we have no interest in owning legacy media networks
Owning Warner Bros’ studio business would give Netflix control over some of Hollywood’s most successful stories and characters, including the Harry Potter and DC Comics franchises. Warner Bros’ prolific television studio also produces many of Netflix’s hits, including original series like Running Point, You and Maid. HBO and its companion streaming service would add more prestige dramas, and subscribers.

Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos told investors last week that while the company is traditionally “more builders than buyers”, it does evaluate acquisitions based on criteria such as the size of the opportunity and whether it would strengthen the company’s entertainment offerings.

Sarandos indicated Netflix would not be interested in acquiring Warner Bros Discovery’s cable television networks, which include CNN, TNT, Food Network and Animal Planet.

Unsolicited offers
“We’ve been very clear in the past that we have no interest in owning legacy media networks,” Sarandos said in the company’s third-quarter investor video. “There is no change there.”

Warner Bros Discovery announced last week that it would begin evaluating options, after receiving a trio of unsolicited offers from Paramount Skydance to acquire the entire company.

The company said its board would consider whether to move forward with its planned split, which would separate the Warner Bros film and television studios, HBO and the companion HBO Max streaming service from its television business, or pursue a sale of all or parts of the company.

Comcast president Mike Cavanagh told investors on Thursday the company is evaluating media assets that would be “complementary” to its existing business. He also appeared to dismiss those who are sceptical of Comcast winning regulatory approval, saying “more things are viable than maybe some of the public commentary that’s out there”. 

Ridiculousness Cancelled On MTV After 46 Seasons

Also Read

“Ridiculousness” has been canceled at MTV after 14 years and 46 seasons.

The comedy clip series, hosted by Rob Dyrdek, will continue into 2026 with previously shot first-run episodes, but no new episodes will be produced moving forward. Season 46 will be the last installment of the series as reruns continue to air on MTV and select seasons stream on Paramount+.

According to a source familiar with the decision, the cancellation comes as MTV (which is under the Paramount umbrella) looks to feature “a more curated slate of content” that “embraces its experimental DNA” and represents “different creative voices” and a “refreshed programming.”

What that means is unclear, including whether this is a sign MTV will pull back from its over reliance on “Ridiculousness” in its schedule.

With more than 1,700 episodes, “Ridiculousness” is one of the longest-running series in MTV history. Its reruns have long dominated MTV’s linear programming, as the network pulled back from original content and eliminated any remaining music-oriented fare. As Variety reported in 2020, the series has taken up as much as 113 hours (or more) a week out of the network’s 168-hour lineup. To many, the show became a symbol of the zombie-fication of MTV and its lack of original programming.

One day before news of the cancellation broke, Bloomberg reported that MTV was paying Dyrdek, a former professional skateboarder, at least $32.5 million per year, according to court documents reviewed by the publication.

Per Bloomberg, that paycheck includes bonuses, a $21,000-per-episode executive producer fee and an escalating $61,000-per-episode on-camera fee. (Those fees add up when the network orders hundreds of new episodes per year.)

“Ridiculousness” debuted in August 2011 and was co-hosted by Chanel West Coast and then Lauren “Lolo” Wood. The series showcases viral videos of failed stunts and “Jackass”-style buffoonery, as Dyrdek and co. deliver comedic analysis and mockery.

Killing “Ridiculousness” marks a big cutback for the network as Paramount restructures its brands after its $8 merger with David Ellison’s Skydance.

Inkholiso Coming Soon To Zee Zonke

Also Read

Zee Zonke, a Zulu dubbed Bollywood based channel operated by Zee Entertainment Enterprises has announced the addition of a new series, Inkholiso. Known in India as Khulta Kali Khulena, it airs daily at 20:00 from Tuesday 11 November.

Synopsis for Inkholiso 

The show starts with the seemingly perfect wedding of Dr. Vikrant and Monica, an arranged marriage with family approval. However, the day of the wedding brings a dramatic twist: Vikrant learns that Monica is three months pregnant with another man's child.

Though he has the option to call off the wedding, Vikrant goes through with it to protect Monica and her family's honor. He keeps the secret from their families, and the two proceed with a difficult, complicated marriage.

The drama is further complicated by Monica's sister, Manasi, who later becomes close friends with Vikrant. This creates an ongoing conflict and jealousy for Monica.

Inkholiso premiered on Zee Marathi on 18 July 2016 and concluded on 16 September 2017 after 372 episodes. It starred Mayuri Deshmukh as Dr. Manasi Shashikant Deshpande, Omprakash Shinde as Dr. Vikrant Vijay Dalvi and Abhidnya Bhave as Monica Vikrant Dalvi.

Prior to its rollout, Zee One will be allocating a Tamil based series, Padamati's Love Story. It serves as a remake to Padamati Sandhya Raagam.
