‘The Residence' and ‘Pulse' Canceled at Netflix
The two shows both premiered in the spring and had four-week runs in Netflix's internal, worldwide top 10 rankings, with The Residence lasting a bit longer than than in Nielsen's U.S. streaming charts. As usual, Netflix does cost-benefit analysis in making renewal or cancellation decisions.

The Residence is a White House-set murder mystery starring Uzo Aduba as Cordelia Cupp, the 'greatest detective in the world.' The series hails from Shonda Rhimes' Shondaland and creator/showrunner Paul William Davies (Scandal). Had the series gone forward, the plan was for it to become an anthology with Cupp taking on a new case each season.
The cast for the first (and now only) season also features Randall Park, Giancarlo Esposito, Susan Kelechi Watson, Edwina Findley, Bronson Pinchot, Mary Wiseman, Julieth Restrepo, Al Mitchell, Mel Rodriguez, Ken Marino, Jason Lee and Jane Curtin, among others.
Davies executive produced the series with Shondaland principals Rhimes and Betsy Beers.
In its four weeks in Netflix's global top 10, The Residence had 177.4 million hours of viewing, equivalent to 22.9 million full runs of the season ('views' in Netflix and other streamers' parlance). In those same four weeks, Nielsen recorded about 83.1 million hours of viewing, about 47 percent of the worldwide total. The Residence spent two additional weeks in the Nielsen rankings, adding 15.55 million more hours just above 2 million more views.
Pulse was Netflix's first take at a medical procedural. Over its four weeks in the streamer's worldwide rankings, it drew 20.2 million views and 162.1 million total viewing hours. Its release also coincided with growing momentum for Max's hospital drama The Pitt, which had its first season finale the week after Pulse debuted. In the United States, Pulse spent just two weeks on the Nielsen streaming charts.
Willa Fitzgerald, Colin Woodell, Justina Machado, Jack Bannon, Jessie T. Usher, Jessy Yates, Chelsea Muirhead, Daniela Nieves, Néstor Carbonell, Jessica Rothe, Santiago Segura, Ash Santos and Arturo Del Puerto starred. Zoe Robyn created the series and served as co-showrunner with Carlton Cuse; they executive produced with Bradley Gardner, Emma Forman, Michael Klick and Kate Dennis.
In addition to the cancellations, a third Netflix rookie, No Good Deed, is on an indefinite hiatus following its first season, released in December 2024. There is still a chance that the dark comedy from Liz Feldman (Dead to Me) could return as an anthology, but nothing is planned at the moment.
Deadline first reported the news.

Reporter's Failed Attempt To Trap Meghan Markle
Another day, another random reason someone came up with to complain about Meghan Markle... During a June 30 broadcast of GB News (Great Britain News), reporter and host Martin Daubney sat down with journalist Ellen Coughlan to discuss where the Duchess of Sussex sells her food products. For those who don't know, Meghan has a popular cooking and lifestyle show on Netflix called With Love, Meghan, sharing her personal tips and tricks on cooking, gardening, and entertaining, all while embracing playfulness over perfection. Set in a picturesque farmhouse near her Montecito, California home, each of the eight 33-minute episodes showcases Meghan engaging in various activities such as harvesting honey, arranging flowers, and preparing meals, often accompanied by celebrity guests like Mindy Kaling, Roy Choi, and Alice Waters. Along with displaying a ton of personal recipes on the show that fans can't get enough of, Meghan also debuted her very own food and wine company, As Ever, which features a collection of assorted products like jams, crepe mix, tea, and more. While discussing her products, Martin accused Meghan of getting herself in a "sticky situation" after fans realized her "homemade" products weren't actually being distributed from her home. "Meghan Markle's posh 6.5-pound jar of raspberry jam might look homemade," Martin began. "But it turns out the fruity treat is apparently whipped up on a huge industrial estate, thousands of miles away from Montecito." "Fans thought it came from Meghan's kitchen, but it's actually a mass-produced jam made by the same firm behind her herbal tea line. Because, guess what? Not everything is as it seems, once again, about Meghan Markle." He went on to say that Meghan is selling the "illusion" that her raspberry spreads are being handcrafted by "royal hands," but Ellen quickly shot that narrative down. "That's the thing," Ellen stated. "I don't think this is the 'gotcha' moment that the press are hoping for. This is actually industry standard. To meet demand, she obviously has to outsource where it's manufactured." "She can't set up a production line in her kitchen. If you look at Martha Stewart, she's had a whole career on building homemade products, food products, and also homeware products. They're all manufactured in Pennsylvania, while she lives in New York." Martin claimed Ellen was being "very charitable" with the reasons she was providing to explain Meghan's distribution process, so he followed up by asking how it affects her carbon footprint. He said Meghan and Prince Harry fly to Google's climate change conference on a private jet, and fly jars of jam 2,000 miles across the country. "You're telling me they can't make that jam a little nearer to their Hollywood estate?" Martin asked. In an attempt to stir the conversation back to the original topic, Ellen reiterated that most companies, especially large corporations, use "manufacturing plants that aren't in the same location where the product was created. It's just industry standard." She continued, "If we want to look at Meghan Markle with a fine-tooth comb, that means we have to open it up and look at absolutely every single massive business in the world, and ask, 'Why are you producing this so far away from home? Shouldn't this be produced in your kitchen? What about the carbon footprint? It can't be one rule for Meghan, and then another rule for other global businesses.'" "I think we can," Martin said in response to holding Meghan to a different standard. Ellen replied that he should do the same for the Windsor strawberry preserve, because those products are not manufactured in Windsor, England, and the products are flown all over the world. Taken aback by her answers, Martin somewhat playfully questioned if Ellen worked for Meghan, to which she replied, "No, I don't. But what I am is a journalist, and I'm fair, and I like unbiased reporting, so that's what I base my reporting on. And I think that, actually, all of the reporting on Meghan Markle has been very biased." Martin then quickly ended the conversation, thanked Ellen, and moved on to the next segment. I'm sorry, but he wasted an entire news segment because he thought Meghan was making every single jar of raspberry spread by hand, in her home, and sending it out personally to customers?! I can't help but laugh! Like, seriously? Even the description on her website says, "This signature As Ever Raspberry Spread is inspired by the recipe Meghan crafted in her home kitchen." INSPIRED! And while I laugh, I'm also going to give a round of applause to Ellen for not only calling out the hypocrisy of his claims, but also directly stating that news reports on Meghan in UK media have been extremely biased. And many viewers felt the same way: What do you think of this? Let me know in the comments!

With the landmark event taking place as the first all-female card at Madison Square Garden, Bidarian spoke to Newsweek Sports about the upcoming event. With Katie Taylor taking on Amanda Serrano, streamed live on Netflix, what kind of records can this event break? NEW YORK, NEW YORK - JULY 08: (L-R) Katie Taylor, Jake Paul and Amanda Serrano attend the Empire State Building Lighting Ceremony in Celebration of Netflix's Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 3 fight on July... NEW YORK, NEW YORK - JULY 08: (L-R) Katie Taylor, Jake Paul and Amanda Serrano attend the Empire State Building Lighting Ceremony in Celebration of Netflix's Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 3 fight on July 11, 2025 at Madison Square Garden at The Empire State Building on July 08, 2025 in New York City. Morefor Netflix "Well, look today, the countdown episode dropped of Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano on Netflix, live globally. It's a 60-minute piece that's unbelievable. You have to watch it and look next week, there'll be a few records that are going to be broken, assuming everything moves forward, three undisputed championship fights in one night never has happened before. Right? 17 world titles on the line, a record by far for the sport of boxing. Never happened before. "21 if you include the ring belts in terms of women's sports, highest payday for any individual female athlete for an event, tournament, season, etc, on the field, inside the ring. So when you look at Ronda, Rousey, Serena Williams, any WNBA player who played an entire season, or one Wimbledon, etc, they will have a record. July 11. Taylor and Serrano, the two athletes, will make more money than the Champion and the runner-up of the Wimbledon women's on July 12. Men's on July 13. It's an epic moment for women. It's an epic moment for boxing." This is the first all-female card in Madison Square Garden history. Correct? How does it feel to put on such a landmark event like this? "In 2022, Taylor and Serrano became the first women boxing or MMA to headline Madison Square Garden. Now they're back three years later, and they're bringing an entire army of other world-class athletes with them, all women. So it's super exciting. We're super grateful to Madison Square Garden, which has believed in women's boxing from day one, and we're looking for a record-setting night. We're excited." The main card features all title fights. I mean, how difficult was it to pull that off? "The main of the prelims is an undisputed championship, right? First fight, unified championship on the main card. Second fight, unified championship. Co-main, undisputed, main, undisputed. How difficult was it? Obviously, it takes time, patience, partnership, right and open-mindedness. Shout out to the WBO, WBC, WBA, and IBF for working with us to make this happen. "But above all, shout out to the fighters. Right? Because the fighters have to want to create these opportunities. I constantly make the example that the UFC had Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall both under the same umbrella. No barriers to making the fight happen other than one thing: the fighters wanting to do it. And so we're in a situation where we have a great relationship with the women within this sport, and so we present them opportunities." MVP is constantly attempting to evolve the fight game. I mean, how much further can you absolutely take this? "I think, look, we're just getting started, right? We're less than four years in, and the fact that we're in the same conversation as the top promoters in the sport, the fact that fans online are. For you know, putting us down versus the UFC is pretty amazing for a company that's four years old when that other company is 40 years old, right? So we see a lot more to come. We're excited about the opportunity within women's boxing. We're excited about where Jake's career is going, and we're excited that we're doing our second fight on Netflix before any promoter does a fight on Netflix, and we're looking to do more with them and other partners as well." Let's say Taylor wins decisively. Will there still be a fourth fight? "No. I mean, if I think Katie Taylor wins decisively, then the demand won't be there, right? If Katie Taylor had won the first two fights decisively, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Right now, you're asking yourself, why would I want to talk to a guy who's putting on a fight for the third time that we already know the outcome to? So, no, I don't think there'll be a fourth fight." Holly Holm signed with MVP, returned to boxing, and got a big win. What was it like to sign her and see her get that victory? Read more: Former UFC Champion Holly Holm Returns to Boxing Under Jake Paul Promotion "I can't tell you how incredibly proud I am, Jake Paul and MVP are to be a part of Holly's career. At this stage. I was fortunate enough to be at the UFC when she joined. I was fortunate or unfortunate enough to be there when she knocked out Ronda Rousey the way that she did, and became the most successful athlete, male or female, in history, at the top of sports right now. Bo Jackson, not Deion Sanders, not anyone professionally has done what she's done to win championships at the top level of two different sports... "And I'm just hoping, hoping that if everything works out right, she's fighting for a championship by the end of the year, which will be such a monumental moment for sports for her at age 43 to come back to this sport, a Hall of Famer already, and to have the opportunity to win a title again."

Bengals' Joe Burrow opens up about home burglary, reveals he put major purchase on hold after ordeal
Cincinnati Bengals star Joe Burrow opened up about the burglary at his Ohio home that took place as he was competing against the Dallas Cowboys in Texas in December. Burrow was one of the three players featured in the second season of the Netflix docuseries "Quarterback." The show delved into the break-in that plagued Burrow for the rest of the 2024 season despite Cincinnati winning the final five games of the year. "Of f---ing course this happened to me right now," Burrow said. "When you're on cloud nine, something's gonna bring you right back down. It just felt like the kind of year that it was." "I just get uncomfortable when, you know, my life is very public… and, you know, it comes with the job, but… there's certain parts of your life that are, like… yours. Your house is one of those. When that gets violated, people find out where you live, all these different things. Not everybody's failures at their job are in front of the whole world. It's a very vulnerable position to be in. I put myself in that position because I love it. Um, I don't like the other part of it." Four Chilean nationals were arrested in the burglary, and authorities released a picture of them posing for a photo with the stolen accessories. The series showed Burrow having a conversation with then-defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo about the heist. "They got all my jewelry… but they could have stolen way worse things than that," he said. "I'm not going crazy about some jewelry. It was expensive, but… it was all insured." The star quarterback said in the docuseries he needed to put one major purchase on hold. "I didn't end up getting the Batmobile because I just had other things I wanted to deal with at that point," he said. Burrow lamented the media attention that came with the robbery, which also put his relationship with Olivia Ponton into the spotlight. The men, who police say were in the country illegally, had tools for break-ins at the time of their arrest, along with a Bengals hat and Louisiana State University shirt believed to be stolen from Burrow's home. The elements of the robbery were consistent with other burglaries recently carried out in varying parts of the U.S. by South American theft groups, the complaint stated. The document added that the groups have typically been comprised of South Americans who enter the country illegally or remain in the U.S. after their visa expires. The groups have targeted jewelry and designer accessories, per the complaint. Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
