The Gilded Age Shocker: Morgan Spector Was ‘Thrilled' by Episode 7's Jaw-Dropping Ending
This might come as a shock to you, but Morgan Spector tells TVLine that he's 'thrilled' with how Sunday's episode of The Gilded Age ended. The penultimate hour of Season 3 went out with a bang, ending with a moment that surely left every viewer's jaw on the floor. 'I have a delivery for Mr. George Russell,' announced a seemingly innocent courier — that is, until he pulled out a gun. After shooting poor Jones, he turned his weapon towards George and fired. Bang. More from TVLine House of the Dragon Adds Annie Shapero as Alysanne 'Black Aly' Blackwood in Season 3 The Gilded Age Renewed for Season 4 Ahead of Finale The Gilded Age EPs Defend That Tragic Twist in Episode 6: 'I Jumped Out of My Skin When I Watched It' So, why is Spector 'thrilled' that his character is entering next week's season finale on death's door? He has a few reasons actually: First, he simply says, 'that happened,' meaning that it was a historically accurate threat that would theoretically be looming over George's head. (Look no further than the 1872 murder of robber baron Jim Fisk.) But even with its historical accuracy, George's shooting 'just didn't feel like the kind of thing that would happen on The Gilded Age,' he admits, not unlike the shocking carriage accident that unexpectedly killed John Adams last week. And that's what Spector loves about it. 'I'm thrilled the more we get to expand the world.' He thinks of it as 'adding colors to our palette.' Carrie Coon notes that this expanding of the show has been a running theme all season. 'It started with how we kicked things off in the Wild West [in the season premiere],' she tells TVLine. 'It was signaling to the audience that this is not Season 2. We're doing new things.' Also worth discussing from Season 3, Episode 7… * John Adams left Oscar a house and money in his will as a token of their love, and in his grief, Oscar nearly revealed the nature of their relationship to Agnes and Ada. * Led by Mrs. Astor, the ladies of New York society froze out Ward McAllister after his tell-all book exposes their most private affairs, name changes aside. * The Russells' staff set a successful trap for Miss Andre, eventually revealing her to be the mole. * Larry attempted to convince Marian that nothing of ill repute went down at the haymarket, with even Jack coming to his defense while Marian helped him shop for a proper rich man's house. * George told Bertha that her ambition is out of control. (What else is new?) * The Duke proved his devotion to Gladys by suggesting that Lady Sarah find her own place to live. (Finally!) * William's mother learned about Peggy's tragic past, passing along the information to her son, who decided to speak with Peggy himself before making any major decisions. * George got Clay fired by his new employer. (Gee, could Clay have had something to do with George getting shot?) OK, let's talk: Which twist ending shocked you more, last week's carriage crash or this week's shooting? And how heartbreaking was Oscar's near-outing? We have a lot to discuss ahead of next week's finale, so drop a comment with your thoughts below. We know you've got 'em.

Is ‘Tracker' On Tonight? ‘Tracker' Season 3 Return Date On CBS
Our Sunday Scaries are at an all-time high without new episodes of Tracker on CBS. But after months of wondering when Justin Hartley's hit survivalist drama would return for Season 3 and which characters would be returning, we finally have answers! Tracker's Season 2 finale, which premiered all the way back on May 11, saw Colter Shaw (Hartley) head home for a job, visit his mom Mary Dove Shaw (Wendy Crewson), and learn some jaw-dropping revelations about the death of his father, Ashton Shaw (Lee Tergesen). For those who need a refresher, Colter's mom was involved in the death! So we need more info ASAP! 'I know we'll get to the nitty-gritty of why my mother hired this guy,' Hartley told Variety in a recent interview teasing Season 3. 'Was she protecting her kids? Was an affair happening? Was the government involved? Was it strictly just my mother? Why did she hide that from us for so long? Why did she lead me to believe that it was my brother who was involved when he wasn't? It seems like this divide-and-conquer thing that she's doing. It was just an odd thing to do with your children. There's some deep psychosis there. We'll unpack that.' When Tracker does return for Season 3, the show will also look a bit different, as two key cast members departed after Season 2: Eric Graise (Bobby) and Abby McEnany (Velma). But the Season 3 casting updates aren't all bad! Fiona Rene, who plays Reenie, will remain as the sole original cast member aside from Hartley. And on Thursday, July 31, fan-favorite guest star Jensen Ackles confirmed he's returning as Colter's brother Russell by posting an Instagram video of himself on set. So when does Tracker Season 3 return with new episodes on CBS? And is Tracker is on tonight, August 3, 2025? Here's everything to know about the future of Tracker on CBS, including Tracker's Season 3 premiere date, Tracker streaming info, and more. Is On Tonight (8/3/25)? Technically, yes! Tracker is on tonight, Sunday, August 27, 2025. But there's no new episode on. Instead, CBS will be re-airing TWO Tracker Season 2 episodes: Season 2, Episode 2, 'Ontological Shock' (9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. ET): 'When Colter suddenly disappears during his search for a missing father, Reenie recruits his brother, Russell, for help.' Season 2, Episode 3, 'Bloodlines'(10:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. ET): 'Colter and rival rewardist Billie Matalon team up to find a missing high school baseball star.' Will There Be A Season 3? So is Tracker eventually returning with new episodes? Yes! On February 20, 2025, CBS renewed the popular survivalist drama for Season 3, which makes sense, since CBS reported that Tracker hit over 18 million multiplatform viewers in February, a four percent increase from the prior year. On May 7, 2025, CBS claimed another big win when Tracker took the top spot in the network's 2024-2025 season, averaging 17.5 million broadcast and streaming viewers per episode, according to a 35-day Nielsen streaming report. So when will Colter and co. be back with new episodes? When Will Return With New Episodes On CBS? Tracker Season 3 Premiere Date: After months of anticipation, CBS finally announced Tracker's Season 3 premiere date. The series won't be returning until CBS's 2026-2027 broadcast season, so fans will have to wait a while for new episodes. But you can officially mark your calendars for Sunday, October 19, at 8:00 p.m. ET! How To Watch On CBS And Online: Want to watch reruns of Tracker live on CBS in the mean time?

Popular roller disco nixed at NYC park — and locals are wheely fuming
5 Dreamland Roller Disco will no longer be offered at Prospect Park's LeFrak Center at Lakeside. Dreamland Roller Disco A popular weekly summer roller-disco event in Brooklyn's Prospect Park has gotten the wheels pulled out from under it — and locals are in an uproar. The Dreamland Roller Disco — filled with DJs, dancers and drag queens — was scrapped earlier this month when organizer Lola Star refused to accept a 50% pay cut from the new operator of the LeFrak Center at Lakeside, according to a petition to 'save' the event. The center, where Roller Disco was held for 11 years during the summer, underwent a massive $74 million renovation and opened again this past weekend — without the disco on its calendar. 'It was like a three-ring circus — it was a vibe and energy that I honestly have not seen anywhere else,' longtime Dreamland attendee and skate guard Billy Tyler Smith, 60, told The Post, referring to Roller Disco. 5 Roller Disco fans have flocked to the event for 11 years. Dreamland Roller Disco 'They were my other family.' Scott Lindeman, who had been skating at Dreamland events with his wife since 2015, said, 'It blows my mind that they would throw something away like that. 'People are going to lose out on one of the greatest social events that occurred every Friday night.'' 5 Locals have launched a petition to try to save the event. Dreamland Roller Disco The petition to try to save the event has amassed more than 1,200 supporters so far. Star claimed to The Post that the rink's lowball offer was an act of retaliation because she previously called out safety issues at the venue such as understaffing, hazardous debris and a 'significant decline' in security. 'When it would rain, they wouldn't want to cancel the event because they didn't want to lose money, but water from the rain would blow onto the rink and be slippery,'' she said. In a statement to The Post about the nixed Dreamland event season, the Prospect Park Alliance, a nonprofit that works with the city to help maintain the famed green space, said it is looking to 'work with a range of producers on a rotating schedule of Roller Disco events.' 5 'The thing that I love about Dreamland is the community that Lola has created over the years,' a fan said of operator Lola Star. Dreamland Roller Disco The alliance claimed it 'attempted to engage in good faith with Lola Star to bring back the Dreamland Disco, but at every step she has made this untenable.' Star retorted that she was ignored after an in-person meeting in July in which new rink operator Ekstein Development Group 'demanded to see our financial history — despite our proven success — and said their accounting department would decide if and how Dreamland would be allowed to return to our home for 11 years.' Star said she is already in search of a new home, visiting potential spaces for the larger-than-life event series. 5 Fans flock to the colorful event. Dreamland Roller Disco Smith said of Star's opponents, 'It's classic 'penny wise, pound foolish' business practices. 'New York City cannot lose Lola. … She's majorly responsible for the popularity of roller skating and its slow resurgence.'
