From Jesse to Todd, How the Breaking Bad Cast Have Changed in El Camino
Warning: Spoilers for El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie follow...
The great Heisenberg may have fallen but that doesn't mean Netflix's El Camino - a two-hour epilogue revealing Jesse Pinkman's fate following Breaking Bad's series finale - isn't filled with a fun amount of supporting characters from the show. Yes, including Heisenberg himself, Walter White.
A handful of important dead characters appear in flashback form, as Jesse remembers moments with them while they were alive, while a few who are still kicking play an integral role in his flight from Albuquerque. Also, sadly, Oscar-nominee Robert Forster, who reprised his role from penultimate series episode "Granite State," passed away on the day of El Camino's release.

Marvel’s Daredevil Showrunner Takes Over Carnival Row: Season 2
Carnival Row's second season on Amazon Prime Video is bringing on a new showrunner.
According to Deadline, following the departures of executive producer Marc Guggenheim (Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow) and co-creator Travis Beacham, the fantasy noir series starring Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne will be led under the creative direction of Erik Oleson - who ran the final season of Marvel's Daredevil on Netflix.

These are Rick and Morty’s Most Searched For Episodes
It's been two years since we've had a new run of Rick and Morty episodes, but in just one month, on November 10, the multi-dimensional mad scientist misadventures start up again on Adult Swim.
While there are heated debates to be had over which Rick and Morty episode is the best, and compelling cases to be made for each person's favorite, SEMrush, an online visibility management and content marketing SaaS platform, took a look at Google searches and discovered which episodes people are looking for the most.
If we're to believe that these search numbers correlate to overall popularity then the Season 3 finale, "The Rickchurian Mortydate," where Rick got into a feud with the president and Beth started to think she was a clone, ranked number one.
WWE: RAW and SmackDown Draft Results – Night 1
With WWE SmackDown's big move to FOX, shifting to a live Friday night show on a major network, some law and order needed to be laid down. While there've been WWE brand splits in the past, the most recent "shakeup" last Spring didn't exactly take and soon a "Wild Card Rule" was put into place that pretty much allowed either show - RAW or SmackDown - to use any Superstar.
But now WWE's two main shows have two separate corporate masters - FOX and NBCUniversal. It's not feasible for these companies to openly share their TV stars. So starting this week, on SmackDown, a more-concrete Draft occurred that would draw a hard line through the main roster, separating over 50 wrestlers between Monday's RAW on USA and Friday's SmackDown on FOX.

Joker: How Zazie Beetz’s Sophie Character Changed During Filming
SPOILERS AHEAD for Joker.
One of the biggest revelations in Joker was that Joaquin Phoenix's Arthur Fleck's relationship with Zazie Beetz's Sophie was not real and was all inside his mind. This, according to Beetz, was not set from the start and Sophie's role and story actually evolved and changed during filming.
During an interview with THR, Beetz was first asked to discuss this big reveal and if, upon a second viewing, there was anything we should look for that "distinguishes Arthur's Sophie form the real Sophie?"
