Shipwrecked! 'Doctor Odyssey' canceled after 1 season on ABC
Doctor Odyssey has hit rough waters. Entertainment Weekly has confirmed that ABC's cruise ship medical drama is ending after one season. Created by Ryan Murphy, Doctor Odyssey starred Joshua Jackson, Phillipa Soo, and Sean Teale as a groundbreaking (for network TV) potential throuple as the medical staff on a cruise ship captained by Don Johnson. The news of the show's cancellation comes in the wake of a lawsuit filed by three members of the props crew against parent company Disney and producer 20th Television alleging sexual harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, and negligent hiring, retention, and supervising practices. Earlier this month, Caroline Mack, Alicia Haverland, and Ava Steinbrenner alleged in the suit that Tyler Patton, hired by the companies to serve as Doctor Odyssey's assistant prop master under his wife, prop master Tammie Patton, subjected them to an "unchecked campaign of sexual harassment for months." Disney, 20th Television, and Tammie and Tyler Patton did not respond to EW's requests for comment at the time. According to the suit, Tyler and several other male props employees allegedly created "an unlawful den of sexual harassment and retaliation," which the suit claims Tammie Patton not only ignored but subjected them to retaliation for complaining about. The plaintiffs alleged that Disney and 20th TV ignored their complaints, and ultimately laid off the entire props department rather than investigate and take appropriate action. Mack, Haverland, and Steinbrenner are requesting a jury Odyssey's May 15 season 1 ender delivered closure for every character, making it a surprisingly satisfying series finale. Max (Jackson) and Avery (Soo) finally declared their love for each other, and committed to being together long-distance while following their individual dreams: Avery going to medical school, Max staying on the cruise ship. And Tristan (Teale) took not being chosen by Avery surprisingly well. The lack of drama and clear conclusion for the love triangle was the most shocking part of the episode. Plus, everyone survived the tsunami wave and earthquake aftershocks, the captain was able to keep his job despite not following orders during the crisis, and they all celebrated by dancing to "Despacito" on the beach. Not a bad way to go out for a cancelation after one season. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

‘The Bear,' ‘My Mom Jayne,' Lorde's ‘Virgin,' and the best to stream this weekend: June 27, 2025
Like clockwork, it's time yet again for another helping of The Bear. More from Gold Derby Overexposing Pedro Pascal, revisiting that 'Sinners' spit scene, Springsteen 'Tracks II' ranked, and what to read this weekend: June 27, 2025 'F1: The Movie' - Instant Oscar predictions FX's award-winning comedy (we're not going to engage in that tired argument again) returns for its fourth season this week. Across 10 new episodes — all of which are now available to stream on Hulu — Carmy (Emmy winner Jeremy Allen White), Sydney (fellow Emmy winner Ayo Edebiri), Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach, also an Emmy winner), and the rest of the family are moving forward and attempting to make the restaurant a success following middling reviews that call out the chaos and inconsistency of their dishes. Their pursuit of culinary excellence in the face of yet more challenges — including dwindling operational expenses — drives the season, resulting in a compelling new chapter that makes The Bear the awards contender to watch this weekend. However, if you're looking for a more traditional drama, our other prestige picks include: Smoke: Black Bird's Dennis Lehane returns to Apple TV+ with this new series inspired by true events. Adapted from the Firebug podcast, the series follows a firefighter-turned-arson investigator who wants to be a writer (Taron Egerton, also an executive producer) and a police detective who's made one too many questionable choices (Jurnee Smollett) as they investigate two separate serial arsonists. The supporting cast includes Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Rafe Spall, Greg Kinnear, John Leguizamo, Anna Chlumsky, Hannah Emily Anderson, and Adina Porter. The first two episodes are now streaming on Apple TV+. Squid Game: Far be it from us to judge Netflix's decision to drop two seasons of its Emmy-winning drama just six months apart (though separate Emmy cycles, of course), but it does feel a bit like "too much of a good thing." Season 3, which also happens to be the South Korean drama's final season, follows Emmy winner Lee Jung-jae's Gi-hun as he attempts to stop the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) and put an end to the deadly game at the heart of the series in the wake of his best friend's shocking death. All episodes are now streaming on Netflix. Ironheart: Marvel's latest series was years in the making, having been announced in late 2020 at a time when the MCU was growing mostly because Disney needed more content for its new streaming service. The six-episode series follows the minor character of Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne), an engineering prodigy introduced in 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, as she lands back home in Chicago after her experiments get her expelled from MIT. In need of cash to fix the suit of armor she nicked on her way out, Riri teams up with a group of thieves, which goes about as well as you think it does. The first three episodes are now streaming on Disney+. Our top movie streaming pick this week is My Mom Jane, Mariska Hargitay's documentary about her mother, actress and sex symbol Jayne Mansfield. The film, which is Hargitay's directorial debut, premiered at Cannes and also screened at the Tribeca Film Festival. After a small theatrical run, it's now streaming on Max. The heartfelt and personal documentary follows Law & Order: SVU star Hargitay on a journey to better understand and feel close to her mother, whom Hargitay has no memory of, as she died in a car accident when Hargitay was 3. Through interviews with her older siblings and looking at Mansfield's archival materials, Hargitay gets a full portrait of her mother in all of her complexity, and explores how being Jayne Mansfield's daughter shaped her own life and career. If you're not into celebrity documentaries, here are some other new releases to watch this weekend on streaming or video on demand: The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie: Here's a fairly surprising fact: this is the first fully animated, theatrically released Looney Tunes movie in the franchise's 95-year history. It's a rambunctious, gag-filled ode to classic Looney Tunes that finds Daffy Duck and Porky Pig teaming up to try to stop an alien invasion. The film was initially developed for Max, which dropped it during Zaslav's Purge of 2022, and now, ironically, is back on Max after all. : Danielle Deadwyler stars in this daylight ghost story that did better than expected in theaters earlier this year. The Bear Season 4 scene-stealer plays Ramona, a mother of two who is grieving the death of her husband in a car accident. One day, a mysterious woman, shrouded in black, appears in the front yard of their house. She sits there and says 'today's the day' in a spooky singsong voice. She's very menacing. No spoilers, but it's one of those horror movies that's very literal about giving a physical form to psychological conditions. Critics praised Deadwyler's performance, but felt the plot gets too complicated in the third act. Stream in on Peacock and decide for yourself. : This psychological horror indie is the directorial debut of Destry Allyn Spielberg, youngest biological daughter of Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw. It's set in a post-apocalyptic America where a plague has wiped out most of the adult population, and follows a group of orphans who get taken in by one of the few remaining adults (Michelle Dockery). She turns out to be insane, and wants one of the teenage kids (Zoe Colletti) to become the daughter she lost. It's a tough situation for everyone. The film is streaming on Tubi. : An under-the-radar black comedy starring Nick Kroll and Andrew Rannells, I Don't Understand You finds the humor in an increasingly bad situation. The film follows Dom (Kroll) and Cole (Rannells) on an Italian vacation to celebrate their anniversary and accidentally kill an elderly woman. As they try to cover it up, they keep digging the hole deeper. The cast also includes The Gilded Age star Morgan Spurlock as the woman's son, and Amanda Seyfried as the mother of a baby Dom and Cole are planning to adopt. It's now available to rent or buy on VOD platforms including Amazon. The banger maker is back with her fourth album, Virgin, and critics are loving it so far! Listen now before all of pop music sounds like this in a year. Bruce Springsteen's sprawling Tracks II: The Lost Albums box set dropped this week to gushing reviews hailing it as a "treasure trove" of unreleased material. If you're a fan, your weekend plans are set. The erstwhile duo and early aughts indie-rock royalty, the White Stripes, are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Get Behind Me Satan and, as a part of the look back, have released a new video for their track "Red Rain."

Joshua Jackson's 5-Word Update On Doctor Odyssey Season 2 Is Making Fans Go Overboard, And I Can Relate
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. It's been over a month since Doctor Odyssey's first season reached its destination, with a somewhat disappointing finale airing on the 2025 TV schedule, but still no decision has come down from ABC regarding the future of the Ryan Murphy creation. Fans like myself have been desperate for an update, and Joshua Jackson — who brings the Dawson's Creek vibes at Dr. Max Bankman — finally came through with five words that honestly don't make me feel any better. Joshua Jackson attended the Motion Picture & Television Fund NextGen Annual Summer Party this past weekend, and as he walked the red carpet, someone can be heard commenting that they hope Doctor Odyssey would get renewed for Season 2. In the clip on X, you can see his face scrunch up, and he shrugs a couple of times before responding: They haven't told us yet. I don't love this response, because there was no confidence in the answer; it didn't sound to me like he was expecting to hear from Ryan Murphy any day now, and honestly, the facial expression read more like, 'not happening,' than 'prepare to set sail,' at least in my opinion. I'm just speculating here, but it seems like these actors — Joshua Jackson in addition to Phillipa Soo, Sean Teale, Don Johnson and the rest of the cast and crew — would kind of need to know something about the state of their employment. Either way, I'm not the only Doctor Odyssey fan reading into Jackson's words, as the comments were full of doom and frustration: I need them to just make a decision already it's driving me insane – @Fruit_Batt_ Maybe it's already cancelled and he is not allowed to say 😬 – @targetconfusion Abc put the series in the freezer and forgot about it 😔 – @FinitAaAaaaaA Keeping them + us in limbo is sick behavior😭 – @just_zutara Bruh 😭 what the hell is this??? JUST GIVE US SOME CLARITY FFS – @Lylyjen Honestly, if it's over, just put us out of our misery already! One fan referenced the wild theory that The Odyssey isn't real and that Max is stuck in a COVID-induced purgatory, hallucinating the unrealistic high-seas medical emergencies and the stunt-casted spring-breakers begging to give him the ride of his life. X user @Mietar cleverly commented: Turns out it was actually us viewers in purgatory this whole time 😭 Ahead of the Season 1 finale, the situation didn't seem so dire, as ABC/Hulu executive Craig Erwich indicated that the decision was in Ryan Murphy's hands, with creative conversations ongoing with the busy TV producer. However, weeks later — and especially with the sexual harassment lawsuit filed by three former Doctor Odyssey crew members — it feels a little less likely that we're cruising toward good news. That's a lot of speculation for just five words from Joshua Jackson, but you know, we're just a little lost at sea here, wondering if we'll ever get that musical episode and reminiscing about the days of our favorite ABC primetime throuple (are there others?). While we wait for something more official to come down, Doctor Odyssey's first season is available to stream with a Hulu subscription.
