Fox is heading back to the beach: the network has handed a 12-episode, straight-to-series order to a reimagined “Baywatch,” produced by Fremantle and Fox Entertainment. Set to premiere in the 2026–27 season, the new take revives the iconic lifeguard drama that NBC canceled after one season in 1990 before it went on to become a worldwide syndication hit and inspire a 2017 feature film. “Together, Fox and Fremantle, along with Matt Nix and original co-creator Greg Bonann, will bring the California dream to a whole new generation of fans with fresh stories, rising stars and all the spectacle that make the ‘Baywatch’ franchise a global sensation,” said Michael Thorn, President of Fox Television Network.

The day after Sinclair announced it was not airing “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on its ABC-affiliated stations despite ABC lifting the show’s suspension, Nexstar followed suit. On Tuesday, the station group said in a statement, “We made a decision last week to preempt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s ‘ill-timed and insensitive’ comments at a critical time in our national discourse. We stand by that decision pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve.” Nexstar noted that the show would be available on multiple Disney-owned streaming products, while its stations “focus on continuing to produce local news and other programming relevant to their respective markets.” Together, Nextstar and Sinclair control over 20% of ABC’s local affiliates.
