-The is weird: Hulu just stealth-dropped the entire new season of UnREAL. It may still air on Lifetime, but not until next year, if at all. They’re playing it like it’s a Beyonce-style surprise release, but it feels a lot more like a summer burn-off.
–Johnny Depp has settled his legal feud with his former managers.
–Demi Moore and Cybill Shepherd got in on the Bruce Willis-roasting action for Comedy Central.
