Loosely tied to Chinese legend (the nine-tailed fox spirit is prominent in folk legend), Eternal Love follows Nine-Tailed Fox Bai Qian, youngest daughter of the Fox King, as she becomes a disciple of the God of War, Mo Yuan. A war forces Mo Yuan to sacrifice his life to seal a demon lord, who resurfaces seventy thousand years later. Bai Qian also attempts to sacrifice herself to cast him back, but instead gets stuck in the mortal realm, where she loses all her divine powers and memories. A love story ensues between Bai Qian and Crown Prince Ye Hua of the Nine Heavens, both not knowing each others' true identities.

The cast of "Busted!" speaks during an online press conference on Tuesday. (Netflix) The Netflix original mystery entertainment series "Busted!" will return with its third and final season on Friday, with cast members from both the first and second seasons coming together. "Busted!" was the first Netflix original Korean entertainment show on the platform when it was first released in 2018. The show is a hybrid of a reality television show and a crime drama as celebrities who appear on the show are given certain acting roles while having to solve mysteries. "There were many uncertainties and new elements such as the preconception of people that smart intellectuals would solve mysteries and the new attempt at combining drama with an entertainment show. I wondered whether the show could go on for three seasons. We were able to come this far because many people loved the show, and for that, I am thankful," said the program's director Cho Hyo-jin....

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Television fare that reflects the nation's increasing racial and ethnic diversity is finding favor with industry gatekeepers and viewers, according to a study of the 2019-20 TV season released Tuesday. Despite the pandemic that stymied Hollywood production, there were varying measures of growth in the hiring of people of color — and women — in on- and off-camera jobs, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, said in the report. In return, audience enthusiasm for shows such as creator-star Issa Rae's "Insecure" and the miniseries "Watchmen" with Emmy-winning actor Regina King proved that inclusion pays business as well as social dividends, said Darnell Hunt, dean of the school's social sciences division. The report's biggest takeaway is "the mounting evidence for how important diversity is to today's audience," Hunt said in an interview. He co-wrote the annual report with An...

Six NFL teams are on bye in Week 7. That means that there will be only 13 games in Week 7, and with three of those games occurring in stand-alone, prime-time spots, that means there will be just 10 games in the Sunday slate. It's the second straight week this has happened, but this slate is a bit more balanced than last. The early window of games will feature six contests while the late window will feature four. So, though the day will be a bit lighter on action than usual, there will still be plenty of opportunities to catch quality NFL games. This week, CBS and Fox are splitting the 10 games down the middle. Each network will broadcast five games, but it's CBS that will have the main-slate doubleheader. Fox will air five games but each regional audience will see just one of them throughout the day.

Akyazi, Turkey – Kneeling from dawn till dusk, the Turkish farmers picking most of the hazelnuts that go into Nutella spreads complain of exploitation and meager pay, setting up a clash over labor rights. The little heart-shaped nut that makes Nutella such a guilty pleasure is a cherished commodity in Turkey, which accounts for 82% of global exports. But this love is not shared by Mehmet Sirin, a 25-year-old from Turkey's mostly Kurdish southeast who travels to lush northern valleys filled with hazelnut trees to make a living during harvest season. "We work 12 hours a day. This is a demanding job," said Sirin, a hood protecting him from a cold drizzle covering the leafy ground where the hazelnuts hide after ripening and falling from the trees. "The hazelnuts we pick go abroad and come back in the shape of Nutella. They make more profits than us. This is exploitation," he said in the Black Sea town of Akyazi. A seasonal worker shows a handful of hazelnuts in the ...

DETROIT – Good Wednesday morning! It's a calm, but cool, start around Metro Detroit, and clouds are key. Areas seeing fewer clouds and more clearing west of Ann Arbor are already in the low and mid 30s -- brrrr. Parts of our area may see the clouds fade enough for temps to dip down to the upper 30s for a while before the sun really gets up. Those of us with more clouds will be slightly warmer in the lower 40s this morning without much of a breeze. Either way, it is jacket weather if you're going to be outside this Wednesday morning. Today's sunrise was at 8:01 a.m. Our skies over SE Lower Michigan and Southern Ontario will remain cloudy to only partly sunny today. Winds have calmed down compared to the last couple of days, coming from a cool direction NNW at 3-8 mph. High pressure is trying to help the Great Lakes region stay dry after some healthy rains earlier this week, but we will struggle to warm up, with highs only in the mid-to-upper 50s. We won't have the best ...

As a film crew and actors in western garb prepared to rehearse a scene inside a wooden, chapel-like building on a desert movie ranch outside Santa Fe, N.M., assistant director Dave Halls stepped outside and grabbed a prop gun off a cart. He walked back in and handed it to the film's star, Alec Baldwin, assuring him it was safe to use because it didn't have live ammo. "Cold gun," Halls yelled. It wasn't, according to court records made public Friday. Instead, when Baldwin pulled the trigger Thursday, he killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounded director Joel Souza, who was standing behind her. Horrified questions The tragedy came nearly three decades after Brandon Lee, the son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, died in a similar case, and it prompted horrified questions about how it could have happened again. The executive producer of ABC's police drama The Rookie  announced Friday the show would no longer use "live" weapons b...
