Posted by on
  The Thundermans   are staying in production living a double life. Fresh off the apparent success of the reunion movie  The Thundermans Return , the  Nickelodeon  superhero franchise is expanding again with a new series greenlight from Nickelodeon Studios, coming to both Nickelodeon and  Paramount+ . The new series, which hasn’t had its title revealed, will follow  Kira Kosarin  as Phoebe and Jack Griffo as Max Thunderman who are sent undercover to handle a new threat in the seaside town of Secret Shores and bring Chloe, played once again by Maya Le Clark, along to train her in superheroing.

The increasing danger of the threat forces the Thunderman trio to stay in town indefinitely. Due to this, the now adult-aged twins are now in charge of raising their younge

Lilith Returns! Bebe Neuwirth To Reprise Role in 'Frasier' Revival

Posted by on

 


When promoting his film Jesus Revolution last month, Frasier star Kelsey Grammer kept assuring that there would be some OG presence in the series's upcoming revival. This was despite previous regulars David Hyde Pierce declining and little word from Peri Gilpin or Jane Leeves. However, when Grammer came a-calling for Bebe Neuwirth to reprise as Crane's ex-wife Lilith Sternin, she responded.

Indeed, Neuwirth will be doing so, but, as is probably clear from being so distant from the casting news of the series regulars, it will be in a guest-starring capacity. The episode will apparently be about Freddy (played by Jack Cutmore-Scott)'s birthday party. Apparently, this will be the first time Lilith and Frasier see each other now that he's back in Boston. Now that he is, it seems Lilith is very unhappy that she'll have to "share" their son more again, even though Freddy is now headed to his mid-30s, or at least he's supposed to be. A bit odd, but that might have to do with the parenting style she took on. The fun party will apparently lead to a Lilith and Frasier "showdown for the ages".



As for who are series regulars on this revival besides Grammer and Cutmore-Scott, Nicholas Lyndhurst plays the boozy professor Alan Cornwall, Jess Salgueiro as Freddy's spontaneous and energetic roommate Eve, and Anders Keith as David Crane, Freddy's cousin and Frasier's nephew, Daphne and Niles's son. There's also Toks Olagundoye, playing Olivia, who is head of the psychology department at what is presumably Harvard since the show is Boston-set. 

Neuwirth debuted as Lilith during season 4 of Cheers, marrying Frasier in season 6, and and giving birth to Freddy in season 8. She finally became a series regular for the final two seasons. The marriage collapses in the latter, season 11, and reconciliation never came about. When Frasier moved out to Seattle for the original run of the spinoff, Lilith had primary custody of Freddy. She still managed to appear in twelve episodes, the last being "Guns 'N Neuroses" in season 11. Neuwirth was most recently seen as a regular in the HBO Max series Julia and heard in Adult Swim's Teenage Euthanasia. The revival of Frasier is still set for this year on Paramount+, where both the original series and the mother series are also streaming in full.
