Plus, she has taken on some acting roles but is she circling back to the reality world? Keep reading for more details on her next chapter.

Is Lisa Rinna Returning To Reality TV?

From Seasons 5 through 12, Lisa Rinna “owned it” in Rhobh. She was introduced through Og, Kyle Richards and brought a lot of drama and honesty.

She allegedly said atrocious things about the whole cast,...

Since ABC’s hit series “Scrubs” wrapped its nine-season run in 2010, Hollywood has mostly shied away from comedies set in hospitals — at times a tough place to find laughs — though there have been outliers like Fox and Hulu’s “The Mindy Project,” Warner Bros. and Adult Swim’s absurdist “Childrens Hospital” and HBO’s critically acclaimed “Getting On.”

NBC is the latest to attempt it with “St. Denis Medical,” a new sitcom that blends this challenging setting with a popular format: mockumentary. Can Hollywood find comedy inside a hospital in 2024, especially from a show that focuses on hospital workers’ everyday lives and following a global pandemic?

To try to find out, TheWrap did an exclusive set visit in the last week of filming for the show’s 18-episode first season, which is set to premiere on Nov. 12. TheWrap spoke with the “St. Denis Medical” cast and creators about crafting the comedy series.

Can you believe we’re into November already? Where has 2024 gone? Well, the good news is that Friday, Nov. 1 brings us new episodes of top shows.

With Fox airing the World Series, it had to keep tonight open for Game 6 if needed. The rest of the networks have a normal schedule, so let’s focus on them.

Meanwhile, Joan continues on The CW. Joan faces a lengthy prison sentence or the wrath of the Ira, and she doesn’t really want to face either.
