Exclusive: Tubi has picked up Underdeveloped, a mockumentary from Brian A. Metcalf, starring Thomas Ian Nicholas, Tom Arnold and Mark Pellegrino. It will premiere globally September 8 on Fox Entertainment’s free streaming service Tubi. As an independent production with no direct ties to members of the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television, it also is one of the latest projects to receive a waiver from SAG-AFTRA amid the actors strike, so filming can move forward.
Created and executive produced by Metcalf under his Black Jellybeans banner, the comedy series focuses on a group of failed and inexperienced producers working together at a production company.
Samm Levine, Shelley Regner, Kelly Arjen, Charlene Amoia, Nolan River, Jaret Reddick, David Henrie and David Kochner also star.

Alexa Bliss (real name Alexis “Lexi” Kaufman) is the first woman in WWE to win both the “Raw” and “SmackDown” Women’s Championships. She’s also now a rock song.
That’s range — especially for someone who’s only 5-feet-tall.
What’s incredible (though not coincidental) about this specific tale of a WWE character going mainstream is that “Alexa Bliss” — the song, not the character name — is from Lexi’s favorite band of all time, Bowling for Soup. The most amazing part, however, might be WWE Chairman Vince McMahon’s support of the song and its music video, in which “Little Miss Bliss” stars.
During a week celebrating WWE’s Women’s Evolution — of which Bliss has been a big part — and ahead of Sunday’s “Extreme Rules” pay-per-view — where Bliss will be cornering for her tag team partner Nikki Cross in a title match vs. “SmackDown” Women’s Champion...

"If we want to make a Christmas album or remix album, or sing in a Disney project, we can. We don't need to get anyone's permission," explained frontman Jaret Reddick regarding the band's release from a major record label. Bowling For Soup are currently performing a string of UK dates, with the last being at London's Koko on April 15. The tracklisting for Fishin' (more)...

There are a handful of new albums available today, including the latest psychedelic freakout from the Flaming Lips and Bob Dylan's Christmas album. But the one new release that guarantees a party is the latest from Bowling for Soup. Sorry for Partyin' features 14 tracks worth of good-time riffs, drink-along choruses and cheeky lyrics about beer and girls. And though the title of the album suggests that they've got a bit of regret, they want to reassure fans that they shouldn't take it seriously.
"It's more of a sarcastic thing," frontman Jaret Reddick told MTV News. "We're not actually sorry."
Indeed, the Grammy-nominated (for "Girl All the Bad Guys Want") group is unapologetic about most things. Take the video for "Wena," for example, which features one of Reddick's Facebook friends dressed as a giant phallus. "That song could be about a girl named Wena, or it could be about a dog,...
