Along with David, the Obamas are among the executive producers. Expect witty comments and noteworthy cameos — many of which are sure to delight history buffs and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” fans alike.

Earth, water, fire and air.

While there have been debates among fans about whether this adaptation lives up to Nickelodeon’s hit 2005 animated series, the consensus is that a wave of nostalgia for viewers holds strong. Begins streaming Thursday on Netflix.

Tobey Maguire’s ex-wife Jennifer Meyer welcomes third baby at 49, her first with fiancé Geoffrey Ogunlesi
Jennifer Meyer is a three-time mom!
The jewelry designer, 49, confirmed she gave birth to her third child — her first with fiancé Geoffrey Ogunlesi — with a sweet Father’s Day tribute.
Sharing an Instagram photo of Ogunlesi holding their newborn daughter, she wrote, “A perfect month with our perfect baby girl. We love you the most @geoffo212 💫 Happy Father’s Day♥️.”
However, it’s unclear when she actually gave birth.
The baby girl joins Meyer’s two kids with ex-husband Tobey Maguire — daughter Ruby, 19, and son Otis, 16.
The former couple separated in 2016 after nine years of marriage.
When Meyer and the “Spider-Man” star, 50, divorced during the coronavirus pandemic, she asked Gwyneth Paltrow for advice on how the Oscar winner “consciously uncoupled” from ex-husband Chris Martin.
Meyer told “Broad Ideas” podcast listeners in July 2024 that she asked Paltrow, “How can we come together for [these] human[s] we both created that we love? What do we do?”
Her and Maguire’s “hard work” has since “paid off,” Meyer clarified, going on to call Maguire the “jackpot” of ex-husbands.
The duo have since put their amicable co-parenting on display, most recently reuniting at Ruby’s high school graduation.
Meyer moved on with Ogunlesi in the summer of 2023.
The billionaire music exec got down on one knee in Aigust of the following year, with the bride-to-be excitedly sharing the news via Instagram.
“YES!!!” she captioned engagement photos in 2024.
In December 2025, the pair announced that they had a daughter on the way.
Meyer debuted her baby bump in smiling snaps at the time, writing, “Hey baby girl. We love love love you!!🩷”
She continued documenting her pregnancy progress for her followers, from bikini photos to mirror selfies.
“Heart full, belly full,” she wrote via Instagram in January.

Concertgoer who fell to his death during Madison Square Garden show identified
NEW YORK — A 51-year-old Connecticut man fell to his death from an upper deck of Madison Square Garden during a concert on Saturday night, police said.
Officers responding to a 911 call around 9:51 p.m. found the man unconscious and unresponsive with injuries indicating a fall from an “elevated position,” New York City police said. Police did not say how far the man fell, but said he was in Section 300. They identified him as Paul Kueker of Niantic, Connecticut.
The man was with his wife, according to police. He was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police do not suspect foul play.
The rock band Goose was performing. In a statement, the band said it was “reeling” from the tragedy.
Goose played a concert Sunday evening in Central Park and said all proceeds from the show would go toward a charitable fund providing support and resources for their fans.
“We considered whether or not we were going to play and came to the decision that the best thing we can do right now is bring our community together, lean on one another, and offer a space for healing,” the Sunday statement said. “So let’s be kind to each other tonight and remember our friend.”

Prince William Is Reportedly Ready to Cross a Line for Prince Harry – Insider
Prince William is reportedly ready to meet Prince Harry during the latter’s trip to Britain in July. The brothers have allegedly been estranged for numerous reasons, including Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding. There were reports of Kate Middleton trying to resolve the conflict between the brothers, but she eventually gave up. Now, as per a source, the Prince of Wales will be having a private meeting with the Duke of Sussex.
Prince William ready to take the first important step, claims insider
According to Rob Shuter, Prince William has agreed to privately meet Prince Harry as the latter brings his kids to the UK visit. Insiders shared that William understands the importance of his visit. Moreover, he reportedly knows that King Charles wants to spend time with his grandkids. Sources shared that the Prince of Wales has agreed to a private meeting, while the relationship between the brothers remains complicated. “William knows this visit is bigger than old arguments,” a source told the outlet.
They continued, “His father wants to see Archie and Lilibet, and William understands why that matters.” However, it is unclear whether the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex would meet. Sources shared that no plans have been finalized, and the ladies are focused on their families rather than fixing old wounds. An insider explained, “Nobody is putting pressure on Catherine or Meghan. If they see each other, great. If they don’t, that’s okay too.” Royal watchers reportedly would love to see Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet spend time with Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
This is because Archie and Lilibet have never spent time with their cousins. However, as per sources, no decisions have been taken. “Everyone agrees it would be wonderful if the children could spend time together. But right now the focus is simply making the visit happen,” a source stated. Insiders said that William is prioritizing family, not headlines. A source shared, “This isn’t about settling scores. It’s about taking a small step forward. William is prepared to see Harry.” They further explained, “Everything else remains a work in progress.

‘The Voice’ Finalist Josh Sanders Locked In Nasty Custody Battle With Estranged Wife
Josh Sanders went from fighting to win “The Voice” to fighting for custody of his kids … in what’s shaping up to be an incredibly messy legal battle with his estranged wife.
Josh and his estranged wife, Kendra, have been going at it over their three children after separating back in January … according to court documents obtained by TMZ.
In his court filings, Josh claims he should have custody because his ex is trying to turn the kids against him … and says she’s keeping him from co-parenting. He also claims one of the kids has said she wants to live with him.
But Kendra countered by alleging Josh is an “active alcoholic” who she says “drank away” his professional opportunities after coming in second on “The Voice” two years ago.
She also claims he’s driven drunk with the kids in the car and been violent in front of them.
Kendra argued that Josh is only fit for supervised visitation and insists she should have primary custody because she can “provide a stable, loving, alcohol free home” for the kids.
The whole thing is messy … according to arrest records, Josh was arrested in April for violating a domestic violence temporary restraining order. And earlier this month, Josh filed a trespassing complaint against Kendra.

Rumor Roundup: Forbidden Door uncertainty, Liv Morgan concern, AAA, more!
Start the work week with a few rumors.
Lead Rumor: Forbidden Door uncertainty
AEW will hold its Forbidden Door pay-per-view this coming weekend, but there has been some uncertainty for talent regarding the show. That’s according to Fightful Select, who indicate multiple wrestlers from AEW, NJPW, and CMLL didn’t know what they will be doing on the show at least as of this past week’s episode of Dynamite.
It’s worth pointing out, however, that Fightful was told this “isn’t out of the ordinary, and they’ll find out their matches the week of the show.”
Amidst the uncertainty is Gabe Kidd’s status. New Japan expected him to be a big part of the show this year but it’s unclear if that will be the case. That’s because AEW is playing it close to the vest.
Hey, a lot of times it’s better when we don’t know, right?
Other rumors floating around
Videos made the rounds of Liv Morgan appearing to take a bad hit to the lower leg at a house show, sparking injury concerns. She appeared to walk out fine, however, and there has been no update of any issue.
Damian Priest appeared at the AAA taping this past weekend, and it’s possible he is the former world champion General Manager Rey Mysterio was teasing recently.
False Finish says AAA received the blessing of the family of Perro Aguayo Jr. to use the Perros del Mal name before the group made its return on June 20.
There are plans to use Thea Hail in EVOLVE in the near future, per False Finish.
They also say some within WWE and AAA believe Xena will be coming in once she finishes up with Stardom early next month.
An update on Private Party: Fightful says they actually sustained the same injury in the same match on March 28. Still no word on when the two will return, however.
Get in on this, y’all.
