  It’s been a rather good month for the Quaids, with  Dennis  getting to go to the  Oscars  as part of the cast of  The Substance  and his son Jack’s new film  Novocaine  from  Paramount Pictures . Well we’re getting Dennis’s next series,  Paramount+ ’s  Happy Face   this month too.

Showtime's 'Vice' Has Been Removed

Posted by on

Either the pulls aren't over or the round of removals headlined by the cancellations of Star Trek: Prodigy, Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, The Game, and Queen of the Universe is still being explored and bodies are being counted. It has been confirmed that the Showtime series Vice has been removed from Paramount+ with Showtime.

Vice premiered in 2013 on HBO, following Vice journalists around the world covering topics most would avoid. The show ran for six seasons on the network, ending up canceled in 2018 after six seasons, but Showtime picked it up soon after. Resuming in 2020, it has remained in the years since, and was one of the shows that migrated to Paramount+ with Showtime when the merger happened on June 27. Obviously, being only ten days since it happened, it didn't get to stay in its new arrangements long.

Its fourth season on Showtime just premiered in May and it is unclear whether it's being removed from the linear schedule as well. The series won an Emmy for its second season, and received Emmy nominations for its Showtime seasons for Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series or Special. But that wasn't enough to keep it afloat as Paramount focused solely on viewers, and thus wasn't worthy enough to stay. The four canceled shows were also joined by Inside Amy Schumer, Kevin Williamson’s psychological thriller anthology Tell Me a Story, Dave Grohl’s docuseries From Cradle to Stage, and a plethora of Nickelodeon series like Allegra's Window and Monsters vs. Aliens, and TV movies Jinxed, Snow Day, and Fantasy Football.
