E! is getting into the original TV movie business.
The NBCUniversal cabler has announced plans to begin programming original romantic comedy films beginning in 2023. The network has commissioned six films to start, though further details about the films were not readily available.
The move into made-for-tv movies at the network comes amid shifting tides in the world of cable and linear television channels. NBCUniversal and other legacy media companies are shifting considerable resources to their streaming efforts, leaving observers wondering what the future of traditional networks like E! will be. Hallmark and Lifetime have both found considerable success with their own slates of original films over the years. Paramount Network was also set to become the home of weekly original films, though Paramount eventually abandoned those plans.
E! is continuing to build out its unscripted offerings as well with the addition of several new shows. Those include “Celebrity Beef” hosted...

Exclusive: Paris Hilton‘s Cooking With Paris will not be back as Netflix has opted not to renew the cooking reality series for a second season.
The six-episode series, which premiered in August and briefly cracked Netflix’s daily Top 10 rankings, sees the media personality tackle a range of recipes, from savory main dishes to succulent desserts, with guests including Kim Kardashian West, Nikki Glaser, Demi Lovato, Saweetie, Lele Pons, and Kathy and Nicky Hilton.
Cooking With Paris showcased the host’s unconventional — and often chaotic — cooking practices. She flattens burgers with a diamond-encrusted spatula and dredges meat while donning a flashy feathered ensemble.
Hilton executive produced along with Aaron Saidman, Eli Holzman, and Rebecca Hertz. Industrial Media’s The Intellectual Property Corporation produces.

Netflix released the first trailer for Paris Hilton’s upcoming “cooking” show (scare quotes theirs) on Tuesday, giving the heiress the chance to demonstrate her kitchen prowess ahead of the show’s August premiere.
Set to premiere on Aug. 4, the six-episode “Cooking With Paris” follows Paris and her celebrity guests as they go “from the grocery store to the finished table spread.” The show is inspired by Hilton’s viral lasagna video from last year, which has since accumulated more than five million views.
Hilton, importantly, is not a trained chef, and as such is apparently unfamiliar with concepts like zesting lemons and the word “tongs.” But fear not, “With the help of her celebrity friends, she navigates new ingredients, new recipes and exotic kitchen appliances,” Netflix says.
Guests for the first season include Kim Kardashian West, Nikki Glaser, Demi Lovato, Saweetie, Lele Pons, Kathy Hilton, Nicky Hilton and one aggressively manhandled chicken carcass.

Paris Hilton has lined up a cooking show at Netflix inspired by her viral lasagna video from last year, the streamer announced Monday.
The six-episode series, titled “Cooking With Paris,” promises to “turn the traditional cooking show upside down,” according to Netflix’s description. “She’s not a trained chef and she’s not trying to be. With the help of her celebrity friends, she navigates new ingredients, new recipes and exotic kitchen appliances. Inspired by her viral YouTube video, Paris will take us from the grocery store to the finished table spread – and she might actually learn her way around the kitchen.”
The show bears the same name as the video uploaded to Hilton’s YouTube channel in which the heiress demonstrated how to cook lasagna. The 16-minute clip went viral early last year and has since accumulated more than 5 million views.

The amateur cooking show will feature the hotel heiress and business mogul learning her way around the kitchen with the help of her famous friends.

In the series, Hilton will invite her celebrity friends into her kitchen, as she navigates new ingredients, new recipes and exotic kitchen appliances.
