Exclusive: Liza Treyger’s first hour-long stand-up special Night Owl is set to premiere globally on Netflix on January 28, sources tell Deadline.
Filmed in New York City, the special sees Treyger touch on her friends who are parents, hating other people’s husbands, and lying to herself about how high she really is. It comes on the heels of Glittercheese, a half-hour she taped for Comedy Central, as well as a half-hour she put together for Netflix stand-up collection The Degenerates. Brian Hoff and Laura Lucchetti served as producers.
Stated Treyger on Night Owl, “It’s my first hour and it’s huge to have it on Netflix. I’m so excited for people to watch it, it’s what I’ve always wanted.”
Known for biting jokes that dance around hot button topics including sexism and feminism — but also weed, animals, and The Real Housewives — Treyger recently wrapped filming...

In her new uInterview, Orange Is The New Black star Beth Dover shared how she used her comedy skills in her latest role as Molly Arden in Helen’s Dead.
The film focuses on a group of people who find a dead body at a dinner party, which her character attends to write an expose on.
“Basically, it’s sort of the aftermath of that,” Dover explained to uInterview founder Erik Meers. “So it’s like, what if a bunch of people went to a dinner party and found a dead body? But all of these people are slightly self-involved, maybe slightly unlikeable. And what happens when they find a dead body?”
Dover described the film as a “madcap adventure. It’s like sort of in the style of Clue, maybe.”
The actress shared that she was able to do some improv work with her castmates while on set, which was memorable for her.

A scene from Helen”S Dead. Courtesy of Screen Media
If you’re in the mood for a gory little dark comedy, Helen’S Dead might allay your craving. The tale plays out in one arduous night (apart from a few flashbacks) at a small, rather fancy dinner party. The host (Brian Huskey) is an uptight foodie; his wife (Annabelle Dexter-Jones) is an even more uptight “influencer.” Guests include her sister, Helen (Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz), their cousin Addie (Dylan Gelula), a jerk (Emile Hirsch) who’d been involved with both, a writer (Beth Dover) and a couple of unexpected visitors. The film opens with one of them announcing she’s just found Helen dead in another room, then brings us up to and beyond that point, with further casualties, motives and suspects in play.

Writer/director Vivian Kerr accomplishes something daring in her directorial debut Scrap by combining two very different but equally compelling subject matters: Challenging sibling relationships and the beginning stages of homelessness. The indie film, currently making the rounds at film festivals, has won praise for its timely story and solid acting.
Kerr also stars in the movie, playing Beth, a woman who has recently been laid off and struggles to maintain the appearance of a successful middle-class lifestyle. Desperate to land a new job and change her situation, she soon finds herself butting up against her estranged older brother Ben (Anthony Rapp of Star Trek: Discovery), who discovers her dilemma. And so begins a unique adult coming-of-age tale about mending broken ties and moving forward amidst great uncertainty.
Scrap is a character-driven drama that has won high marks for its strong cast, emotional depth, and the way it captures real-life issues.

Joe Lo Truglio is best known to audiences for his comedic performances, in the likes of Superbad & Brooklyn 99. But now he’s turned his talents to directing, and in a somewhat surprising turn of events, he’s seemingly far more interested in telling horror stories.

He talks to us about the film’s journey from conception to screen, and what it was like directing his wife Beth Dover in the leading role. He also talks about the delicate handling of trauma in the film, and looks back across his career, notably on the lasting impact of Superbad…

Beth Dover stars as a troubled woman who takes a lonely job at a fire lookout tower in this psychological drama
Forest-bathers, wild swimmers and other back-to-nature evangelists get a hearty rebuff in Joe Lo Truglio’s debut feature, a sturdy psychological drama with a horror chaser in which the immersion in the great outdoors is the problem, not the solution. Traumatised cafe owner Kate (Beth Dover) decides that the cure to her shell-shocked spirit is a three-month spell looking after a fire-spotting tower in the wilderness, but the swarm of flies infesting the balcony is an early warning that nature can just as well deliver trouble as solace.
With flashbacks to maggot-ridden cadavers and physical assaults, Kate is a double victim of abuse: childhood sexual assault by her uncle and, recently, domestic attacks by an ex-partner. Landing the volunteer gig in the mountains via her friend Nickie (Ta’Rae...

A-list actors like George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Meryl Streep have generously donated $1 million or more to the SAG-AFTRA Foundation's Emergency Assistance Program. The donations will provide financial support to entertainment professionals who are currently without income because of the strike, helping them with essential expenses such as rent and food. This solidarity among actors demonstrates their commitment to securing fair compensation, reasonable streaming residuals, and regulation of artificial intelligence in the entertainment industry.
A-list actors have donated large sums to entertainment professionals during the SAG-AFTRA strike. The Screen Actors Guild went on strike beginning July 14, when negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) stalled and failed to produce a new contract that secured fair compensation, reasonable streaming residuals, and regulation of AI.

Stars from both the Orange is the New Black and Gilmore Girls casts are not holding back in their frustrations with Netflix amid the ongoing actors strike. Netflix is one of the many streaming platforms under target from both SAG-AFTRA and the Writer's Guild of America in the ongoing actor and writers strikes, calling for fairer wages, namely in regard to the residuals they receive from projects on said streamers. Both guilds are also raising concerns over increasing use of artificial intelligence in regard to production and losing their jobs.

Earlier this week, it marked ten years since Orange Is the New Black premiered on Netflix, quickly becoming one of the most popular and acclaimed series on the streaming service. After seven very well-received seasons, the show created by Jenji Kohan came to an end in 2019 and to this day remains one of the best on the streaming platform.
Based on the book Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison by Piper Kerman, which recounts her own experiences in federal prison, the series follows the story of Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling), who must face sentence after having helped her ex-girlfriend Alex Vause (Laura Prepon) to move illegal money to different countries as part of a drug trafficking network.
However, the main attraction of the show was not exactly Piper's story, except for her romance with Alex, but the past and present of all the inmates.

Orange Is the New Black stars are opening up about how they were underpaid by Netflix. Released from 2013 to 2019, the Netflix original series follows a diverse cast of female inmates in a minimum-security federal prison in Upstate New York. Though Orange Is the New Black was one of Netflix's most-watched, widely acclaimed, and longest-running original series, it appears some of its cast members weren't always compensated fairly for their work.
A decade after the series first premiered, several members of the Orange Is the New Black cast are opening up about being underpaid by Netflix. Kimiko Glenn recently reposted a video on Instagram highlighting the issue, which earned several supportive responses from her former castmates:

Orange Is the New Black helped put Netflix on the map. Now, several of the supporting stars on the trailblazing prison dramedy are looking back on the show’s breakout and continued success to ask why they weren’t fairly compensated.
Their questions, coming as the Jenji Kohan-created series celebrates the 10-year anniversary of its July 11, 2013, premiere, surfaced in a New Yorker story published ahead of SAG-AFTRA announcing an actors strike after the union failed to reach a deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) group of studios and streamers. And many of the Oitnb castmembers’ woes reflect the issues at heart of the tense negotiations between SAG and the AMPTP.

Comedians turning to horror is certainly nothing new. Jordan Peele had his doubters, but is now one of the most acclaimed horror directors of our time. Now, Joe Lo Truglio from Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Superbad fame dips his toe in the horror movie pond with his directorial debut Outpost. Who could have thought that Charles Boyle, the lovable, innocent, and sweet character from Brooklyn Nine-Nine would one day write, direct, and produce his own horror movie. Well he did just that, and while Outpost isn't exactly at the same level of Get Out, Peele's sensational directorial debut, Outpost is still a scary good time, leaving us wanting more from the comedic actor.
Lo Truglio's strong sense of direction and writing make Outpost a compelling directorial debut. His development of tension is immaculate and the way Lo Truglio toys with our and the character's psyche is admirable. Outpost, however, does get...

In a world where horror films often tread familiar ground, Outpost emerges as a breath of fresh air, taking audiences on an unsettling journey through the untouched forests of northern Idaho. Written and directed by comedic actor and secret lifelong horror fan Joe Lo Truglio (Brooklyn Nine-Nine) in his feature debut, this chilling film ventures into the dark corners of the human psyche while delivering an unforgettable survival horror experience.
“[Outpost] ventures into the dark corners of the human psyche while delivering an unforgettable survival horror experience”
Outpost revolves around a woman (Beth Dover) who seeks refuge in the tranquil wilderness after surviving a violent assault and escaping an abusive ex-partner. Hoping for healing and solace, she takes up a job as a fire lookout in the isolated mountains. Little does she know that the peace she seeks will be shattered by the torment of her past and the haunting isolation of her present.

Believe it or not, comedians make great horror filmmakers. Obviously, horror and comedy have similarities in their relationship to visceral reactions, and so genre blends of the two have almost always had success. It's in recent years especially, though, that people we've previously associated with comedy have surprised us with spectacularly scary and profound horror films. Jordan Peele and John Krasinski are the iconic examples, but also Zach Cregger, Kevin Smith, and Bobcat Goldthwait.
Now, Joe Lo Truglio is throwing his comedy hat into the horror ring with Outpost. Lo Truglio is perhaps most beloved for his starring role in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, but he's had hilariously memorable supporting roles in Superbad, Reno 911!, Role Models, Pineapple Express, and countless other films.
His wife, Beth Dover, is also known for her funny roles in Another Period, Burning Love, Children's Hospital, Wet Hot American Summer: 10 Years Later, and many more television series.

I do love checking out directorial debuts, I so do. Especially when it looks like the first-time director is flexing that creative muscle in a realm you might not exactly associate with their usual body of work. So the thought of Joe Lo Truglio of Brooklyn Nine-Nine fame making what promised to be some sort of psychological survival thriller type thing starring actress Beth Dover (Orange is the New Black). Well, it is safe to say I was super intrigued by this prospect and couldn’t wait to check out Outpost.

"Routine is key. Your head needs that. Three months is a long time." Gravitas has unveiled an official trailer for an indie thriller titled Outpost, marking the directorial debut of actor Joe Lo Truglio. He directed a few TV episodes for the shows he's been in, but this is his first feature film. It premiered at FrightFest last year, and opens in the US this May. Kate seeks recovery from a violent assault by taking a job as a "fire lookout", but becomes increasingly overwhelmed by her isolation and tragic past. A story about pain, what happens when you run from it, how it always catches up and controls what you see & hear. It commands what you do. If you don’t face your demons, they'll come to face you. Outpost stars Beth Dover, Ato Essandoh, Dylan Baker, Becky Ann Baker, Dallas Roberts, Ta'Rea Campbell, Tim Neff, and D.R. Anderson.

A large part of Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s success is owed to its cast members, most of whom proved to be pretty wholesome in the show and in real life, too. From Andy Samberg and Melissa Fumero to Terry Crews and Stephanie Beatriz, the show's major stars added personality to the hilarious misadventures of the cops and detectives of the fictional 99th Precinct while also adding the right amount of depth in some of the show’s more emotional scenes. Like any long-running sitcom, Brooklyn Nine-Nine also had its fair share of cameos, including those from Nathan Fillion and Neil deGrasse Tyson.
Even featuring guest actors from Parks & Recreation and New Girl as well as the actors' own friends, a few of these cameos hit closer to home for some of the cast. From the debut season up to its ultimate eighth season, the real-life romantic partners of some of Brooklyn Nine-Nine...

In between practicing her catwalk for New York Fashion Week and preparing for her leading role in her husband Joe Lo Truglio's upcoming horror film Outpost, Dover hopped on the phone to talk to us about what it was like to play one of the most notable villains on a show that addresses so many relevant political and cultural issues. "It's a good reminder that villains don't always have to be super scary-looking to be effective," Dover said.

The inmates of Litchfield Prison could only dream about the kind of mass exit experienced by the cast of Orange is the New Black yesterday, though they no doubt would not feel the same sadness.
“Oitnb series wrap!,” wrote Taylor Schilling on her Instagram page, one of many cast members posting their public goodbyes on social media as the seventh and final season of the Netflix prison comedy-drama wrapped yesterday. “Whoa. My heart is full and achey and so overflowing with gratitude I’m a little dizzy.”
“This is a family,” wrote creator and executive producer Jenji Kohan as the caption of a photo of cast and crew posing on the prison set. (See it and all social media messages below).
The social media farewells actually began in the days building up to yesterday’s wrap, with some cast members marking their own final days of filming over the past week or so.
