Eric Weinberg, a veteran writer-producer on the TV show “Scrubs,” was ordered on Tuesday to stand trial on 28 charges of rape and sexual assault.
Weinberg, 63, who also wrote on “Californication” and “Politically Incorrect” with Bill Maher, faces multiple life sentences if convicted.
Judge Charlaine Olmedo heard testimony from nine women at a preliminary hearing that ran for more than two weeks in late April and early May. The women told similar stories of being approached by Weinberg in public places, where he asked if they were interested in modeling.
Many of the women testified that agreed to meet Weinberg at his home, where he would begin to take photos. At some point, the encounter would become sexual, as Weinberg either began to remove their clothing or groped himself.
Several of the women — identified in court as Jane Does — said they became terrified when they realized the photo shoot was just...

Modern procedurals are moving more and more towards realism. If fifteen years ago even viewers could understand that the scenes shown to them looked completely unrealistic and unreliable, in today's projects the discrepancy with reality is often noticed only by the professionals themselves.
The creators of series about paramedics and police officers invite special consultants to the set, such as retired police officers, who regulate the actions of the characters so that they look as realistic as possible.
However, no matter how much the level of authenticity has increased in recent years, the procedural TV shows still cannot be considered completely reliable.
Chicago Fire Focuses Heavily on Personal Stories of First Responders
Chicago Fire is not just about firefighters and paramedics, it is about the entire flawed system of the Chicago Fire Department. Bureaucracy, waste of budget, deception of taxpayers, conflicts with superiors and everything that gets in the way of saving lives.

My head is still spinning from everything that just transpired.
Seriously, if The Rookie Season 6 Episode 9 didn't do anything else, it would have set the stage for a positively explosive season finale.
The hour was all gas and no brakes. So many names were thrown at us that it was hard to keep up, and with so many moving pieces, it was like watching a chess championship.
Listen, we know The Rookie can do season finales right, and if this hour was any indication, we're gearing up for another epic one.
But as jampacked and head-spinning as this installment was, I'd be remiss if I didn't wonder where this was throughout the season.
The shortened seasons have been more curse than blessing for so much of the series that we've come to enjoy.

Pinewood Studios has sold its minority stake in the Dominican Republic’s horizon water tank facility, which has been renamed Lantica Studios after its now sole owner, Lantica Media.
Formerly known as the Pinewood Dominican Republic Studios, Lantica Studios is undertaking the building of a fourth soundstage, measuring 16,000 sq.ft., and two additional workshop spaces of 12,000 sq. ft each, mainly dedicated to housing camera, grip and electric equipment vendors. These are set to open by the Spring of 2025.
The landmark expansion comes as the 10-year-old studio has seen record growth in international and local production, which has led to the availability of more skilled crew in the Dominican Republic (Dr), either trained on the job or in regularly held workshops. “We’ve grown from hiring locals at an average rate of 400 – 500 a year to 2,000 a year,” said Albert Martinez, CEO of Lantica Studios.

Deadpool & Wolverine will unarguably be bringing about a lot of exciting stuff for the Marvel fandom, and fans just can’t wait for it. Even with all the updates, spoilers, and on-set leaks, the movie has still managed to retain a lot of its key parts. This is why fans are both exhilarated and worried about what they will be getting with the release of the presumed masterpiece.
Deadpool & Wolverine.
Among all of these questions about the upcoming film, one thing, in particular, has recently caught a lot of those Wolverine fans off-guard: What will Logan’s claws be made of? This question is inevitably related to Hugh Jackman’s mutant’s strongest weapon. And since it is yet to be confirmed by the franchise, this very factor currently has fans biting their nails off in panic.

Nigerian chess champion Tunde Onakoya raised more than $120,000 livestreaming himself breaking the Guinness World Record for longest chess marathon.
Onakoya, who is 29 years old and founded the education charity Chess in Slums Africa in 2018, arrived in New York City’s Times Square April 17 with the intention of beating Hallvard Haug Flatebø and Sjur Ferkingstad‘s previous record of 56 hours, 9 minutes and 37 seconds.
His endeavor was supported by U.S. chess champion Shawn Martinez, who played him for the entire 60 hours (and thus has also broken the record). Both competitors were allowed to take five-minute breaks after each hour of gameplay, but otherwise had to keep gaming continuously for their time to be counted toward the record.
The pair ended up pushing for four further hours after breaking the record, finally ending at 60 hours. “We’re pushing to 60 hours, guys,” Onakoya tweeted after he and Martinez had broken the record. “We’re not stopping yet.

On April 26, Clint Howard will make his debut on The Bold and the Beautiful as Tom, a homeless man who Deacon (Sean Kanan) and Finn (Tanner Novlan) encounter in their pursuit of solving a mystery. For the veteran performer, adding the credit to his resumé was a welcome change. “This is a surprising turn of events for me,” Howard admits. “I have never been a big soap opera guy, but to be on The Bold and the Beautiful, that’s a notch in my gun belt.” This isn’t Howard’s first time on a soap — he appeared on Santa Barbara as a character named Marshall for a handful of episodes in 1987. His most vivid memory of the experience was working alongside A Martinez (ex-Cruz Castillo). “A Martinez was an actor that I worked with a long, long time ago, in the mid-’70s, on a TV series called The Cowboys,...

Maybe you’ve heard that conservatives are building a parallel economy. Rather than wait to stage another boycott when the next major beer or sneaker brand inevitably goes “woke,” you establish businesses that, from the outset, explicitly tout traditional values. Don’t like Bud Light anymore? Sounds like you need super-patriotic Ultra Right beer. Can’t stand Nike?

Manny Martinez, an early drummer for the Misfits, has died as the age of 69.
Depending on the interpretation of the Misfits timeline, Martinez was either the first or second Misfits drummer, forming a lineup with classic members Jerry Only and Glenn Danzig. However, Martinez was definitely the first drummer to appear on an official recording with the band, and actually helped introduce Only and Danzig to one another.
Martinez’s friend Zach Rector shared the news of the drummer’s passing on Facebook:
“Going to miss you Brother Manny Martinez / A true living legend a student of Buddy Rich I remember Manny telling me Multiple occasions of Buddy bringing up his chops while coming up, & his stories of his family’s notorious bar …An Original Misfits period.

Melanie Martinez showed support for Palestine during her concert in Paris on Sunday by bringing the country’s flag on stage, and her microphone cut out as it was being unfurled.
The incident took place toward the end of the singer’s performance at Zénith Paris – La Villette on Sunday (November 26th). After leaving the stage, she also displayed the following message on the screen: “Free Palestine. Ceasefire now.” It’s unclear whether there is a connection between Martinez raising the flag and her sound being cut.
See the fan-shot footage below. At the time of publishing, Martinez and Zénith Paris have yet to comment on the matter.
Tensions are especially high during the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. At least 1,200 Israelis were killed during an October 7th Hamas attack on Israel, while a reported 13,300 Palestinians have been killed since Israel’s declaration of war and subsequent bombardment of the Gaza Strip.

Throughout the happenings at Princeton in 1955, there's an insidious feeling that Quantum Leap Season 2 Episode 6 will grow in significance as the season progresses.
On the surface, it's an exciting quest adventure, marrying the historical enchantment of the National Treasure franchise with the life-threatening pursuit by universal baddies of the Indiana Jones adventures.
But it also includes several pivotal moments for Ben and the Quantum Leap team as the secret of time travel has been revealed, and major events are set in motion.
Of course, there have canonically been others who have known about Ziggy and Quantum Leap. The O.G. series had Lothos and its Evil Leapers. Even Quantum Leap Season 1 had Martinez and his murderous military/government bosses. And, of course, there's Janis and Beth Cavalicci.
But sharing the secret of quantum time travel has always been understood by the team as something they cannot share outside the inner circle,...

During a press event Thursday to unveil HBO and Max’s programming slate for 2024, Bloys addressed members of the media — some of whom being the very critics he trolled — to confess that during the pandemic he spent an “unhealthy amount of time” on Twitter when he discussed using a “secret army” to hit back at reviewers.

After a miraculously short hiatus thanks to the forethought of the showrunners and hard work of the production team, NBC's hit sci-fi series, Quantum Leap, returns this week on a new night and at a new time with all-new adventures for Dr. Ben Song and the Ql team.
Quantum Leap Season 2 premieres at 8/7c on Wednesday, October 4, and it's immediately apparent that Ben does not make it home. So what's a time-traveling physicist to do?

The Ql team is Mia. Ben isn't able to connect with Addison,...
