Posted on by

NBC Universal

The NBC television network will extend its live coverage of the 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony to IMAX locations nationwide on Friday, July 26 — the first time ever the global event will be presented live in IMAX, it was announced this week.

The plans for the Opening Ceremony are unlike any other. The first-ever Summer Olympic opening ceremony not held in a stadium, the organizers are turning one of the world’s most famous waterways, the River Seine, into the world’s biggest theatrical stage. Instead of walking into a stadium, a four-mile-long flotilla of nearly 100 boats will carry thousands of athletes from more than 200 countries past hundreds of thousands of spectators seated on the banks of the Seine.

The river parade will follow the course of the Seine past the iconic sites of Paris, from Austerlitz Bridge, beside the Jardin des Plantes, crossing through central Paris and finishing in front of the Trocadéro, where the final elements of the show and ceremony will take place.

Official Teaser For “Amityville: An Origin Story” Released

Posted on by

Official Teaser For Amityville An Origin Story ReleasedThe series is set to premiere on April 23 at 10 pm ET/PT on MGM+. The four-part horror documentary series premieres after Season 2 of FROM for a full night of horror programming.

“Amityville: An Origin Story” tells the story behind the world’s most infamous haunted house tale: the Amityville murders. The project is the first elevated look at every aspect of this wildly layered story about the heinous murder of a family of six that became eclipsed by paranormal controversy. 

The 1979 blockbuster film, The Amityville Horror, inspired by the book of the same title by Jay Anson spawned an ever-expanding universe of movies, books, supernatural theories, and horror superfans. But the mass murder behind the hauntings—and its alleged ties to organized crime—left a long trail of questions that have never been fully explored. 

Rooted in the dark cultural undercurrents of the 1970s, the series features firsthand accounts from witnesses, family members, and former investigators appearing on-camera for the first time. Exclusive archival footage, newly unearthed images, and stunning original photography are woven together into the most compelling and comprehensive telling of the Amityville story yet, taking viewers on a heart-pounding roller coaster ride through the mythology, factual record, and devastating human toll of this notorious meta-narrative.

The pioneering TV broadcaster Barbara Walters died Friday. She was 93. This has been confirmed by her representative, Cindi Berger, who said Walters died “peacefully in her home surrounded by loved ones.”

The Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger released a statement: “Barbara was a true legend, a pioneer not just for women in journalism but for journalism itself. She was a one-of-a-kind reporter who landed many of the most important interviews of our time, from heads of state to the biggest celebrities and sports icons. I had the pleasure of calling Barbara a colleague for more than three decades, but more importantly, I was able to call her a dear friend. She will be missed by all of us at The Walt Disney Company, and we send our deepest condolences to her daughter, Jacqueline,” Iger said in a statement Friday.

Walt Disney Company is the parent company of ABC News.

Walters is known as the first female anchor of a network news program. In recent years, she is also known as the co-creator of the hit ABC daytime show “The View.”

In May 2013, she revealed that she’s retiring from journalism by the end of the 2014 season of The View. However, Walters continued to make some appearance on occasion the following year.

In 1989, Walters was inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame after 25 years in television.
