      However, the excitement quickly shifted when a limo pulled up with more men inside the car. The other men were initially not happy but later they were determined to bring their A-game to get Tayshia’s love by the end of the season. Meanwhile, the men coming out of the limo included Spencer, Kenny, Montel, Peter and Noah.

      Spencer moved fast as he took Tayshia’s hand to speak to her privately, much to Brendan’s annoyance. Later when the time of first impression rose arrived, Tayshia brought Spencer to a quiet place to present him with the rose. She told him that she wanted to keep him around and get to know him better. They then kissed.
      When they came back to the room with the other men, host Chris Harrison revealed that it was time for Tayshia to choose who were eliminated that night. However, Tayshia told the men that she decided to cancel the rose ceremony and let them continue their journeys. The men loved it and they had a great night together.
      Later in the episode, Clare and her new fiancee Dale Moss joined Chris on a stage as they discussed their whirlwind engagement. During the show, Chris addressed Bachelor Nation’s questions including whether or not they contacted each other before coming to “The Bachelorette”. They said no with Clare saying that it hurt her to see people questioning their love. When asked about their next plan, Clare said that they were just excited to start their life together.
      Back to Tayshia, she had a pool group date with Blake, Riley, Zac, Jordan, Noah, Peter, Kenny, Jay, Eazy and Spencer. Chris broke the men up into two teams with the winning team getting to spend some time with Tayshia. Spencer was too excited to the point he injured himself. Eventually, blue team won.

      CBS Promises Diversity on 'Survivor', 'Big Brother' and Other Reality Shows

      by

      CBS

      Before the network pledges diversity in future cast members, some ‘Survivor’ alums spoke out against the show, with Sean Rector and Jolanda Jones being two of the most vocal critics.

      Nov 10, 2020
      AceShowbiz – CBS is planning to make changes. Following criticism from past contestants of the network’s shows like “Survivor”, “Big Brother” and “Love Island”, the network pledged on Monday, November 9 that all future casts will contain at least 50 percent black, indigenous and people of color.
      “The reality TV genre is an area that’s especially underrepresented, and needs to be more inclusive across development, casting, production and all phases of storytelling,” George Cheeks, president and chief executive officer for the CBS Entertainment Group, declared. “As we strive to improve all of these creative aspects, the commitments announced today are important first steps in sourcing new voices to create content and further expanding the diversity in our unscripted programming, as well as on our network.”
      Prior to this, some “Survivor” alums spoke out against the show, criticizing the cast which was dominated with white contestants. Among the critics were Sean Rector, who participated on “Survivor: Marquesas”, and Jolanda Jones, who appeared on “Survivor: Palau”. They formed a group called The Black Survivor Alliance in order to bring “light to our collective experience with implicit bias and racism on and off the show.”

        See also…

      “If you don’t think racism and implicit bias exists, tell me why [‘Survivor: Marquesas’ winner Vecepia Robinson] has been completely ignored and has NEVER received an inquiry call or invite to even play in a season with all previous winners?” Rector said.
      “(Please miss me with the ‘she was boring or not great TV’ BS). Subsequently, ten seasons later, Earl Cole, a black man, finally won and like my sis Vecepia and Marquesas, was largely ignored by showrunners … Television, specifically the ‘Survivor’ franchise, has a responsibility and the power to represent a more just and equitable playing field as a benchmark of real progress for ALL people, and not some concession of perceived power or standing that had to be compromised by one group to another,” he went on to say.
      Julia Carter from “Survivor: Edge of Extinction” and J’Tia Taylor from “Survivor: Cagayan” also slammed the show for the lack of diversity during their appearance on “Quarantine Questionnaire”.

      Wentworth Miller Out of 'Prison Break' Over Disinterest in Playing Straight Characters

      by

      WENN/FayesVision

      Dominic Purcell and Sarah Wayne Callies declare their full support and understanding after their co-star, who was known as Michael Scofield on the series, made his exit announcement.

      Nov 10, 2020
      AceShowbiz – “Prison Break” star Wentworth Miller is walking away from the hit TV drama because he’s no longer interested in playing straight characters onscreen.
      The actor rose to fame starring as Michael Scofield on the show back in 2005, portraying a man who deliberately gets himself locked up so he can execute an elaborate plan to break out his older brother, played by Dominic Purcell.
      The show ran for four seasons before it was taken off the air in 2009, but the stars later reunited for a fifth run, which aired in 2017, and in September, Purcell claimed another season was in the works.
      However, if “Prison Break” does return to TV, it will no longer feature Miller.
      The star, who ‘came out’ as a gay man in 2013, took to Instagram over the weekend (November 07-08) to break the news to fans, as he shared a lengthy post addressing the constant backlash he receives from trolls, and revealed he would be taking a step back from social medial.
      In the message, he showed his appreciation for his longtime fans, but expressed his desire to protect other LGBTQ followers from the vitriol people have regularly posted in the comments section of his page.
      “I’m not concerned for myself,” he insisted. “I can’t be ‘bullied’ in this space. I have too much power. ‘Delete. Block. Deactivate.’ Etc. But I take seriously the possibility of queer kids visiting here, recently out of the closet or exploring the idea… I don’t want them exposed to bulls**t.”
      Miller then explained his reasons for exiting “Prison Break”, “On a related note… I’m out. Of PB. Officially.”

        See also…

      “Not (because) of static on social media (although that has centered the issue). I just don’t want to play straight characters. Their stories have been told (and told),” he wrote.
      “So. No more Michael. If you were a fan of the show, hoping for additional seasons… I understand this is disappointing. I’m sorry.”
      “If you’re hot and bothered (because) you fell in love with a fictional straight man played by a real gay one… That’s your work.”

      Officials at Fox, the network behind the series, have yet to comment on the news, but his co-stars were quick to show their support.
      “It was fun mate. What a ride it was,” commented Purcell. “Fully support and understand your reasoning. Glad you have made this decision for you health and your truth. Keep the posts coming… love ya brother.”
      And cast member Sarah Wayne Callies added, “With gratitude for all the work we did together, & with deep love, I’m voicing my support for that choice.”

      “To all the fans, know this: the cast of prison break is a queer friendly space. we stand with – and among – our friends & family in the LGBTQ+ community with full throated support for their rights and artistic work. all the time. always.”

      'The Crown' Writers Accused of Using 'a Lot of Artistic License' by Buckingham Palace Intruder

      by

      Netflix/Sophie Mutevelian

      Weighing in on the series’ depiction of his 1982 incident, Michael Fagan denies that a conversation between him and and Queen Elizabeth II about Margaret Thatcher’s harsh policies took place.

      Nov 10, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Buckingham Palace intruder Michael Fagan has accused “The Crown” writers of using “a lot of artistic license” in their depiction of the 1982 incident.
      The then-unemployed painter and decorator broke into the London residence by climbing the railings of the grounds and finding his way through an open window. Fagan then made his way to Queen Elizabeth II’s bedroom, where he and the monarch came face-to-face.
      During the forthcoming fourth season of the Netflix royal drama, Fagan, played by Tom Brooke, is seen breaking into the Queen’s bedroom before speaking to Olivia Colman’s monarch about the harsh policies of the controversial Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher – played by Gillian Anderson.
      However, Fagan himself has denied that events happened as they are depicted on the show, telling The Telegraph newspaper that, despite initial reports that up to a half-hour conversation had occurred between the intruder and the Queen, that wasn’t the case.

        See also…

      He maintains that few words were exchanged, revealing, “I pulled back the curtain and she said, ‘What are you doing here?’ ” at which point she spoke “normally” and not in a manner that one would expect, informing him, “I’ll be back in a minute.”
      According to Fagan, she then ran from the room before footman Paul Whybrew appeared and offered him a drink of whiskey. The police then arrived to escort Fagan away.
      He also told the paper that writer Peter Morgan did not consult him in regards to the script and its depiction of the events.
      Season four of “The Crown” will follow the royals as the 1970s ends and Britain is divided by Thatcher’s policies – with Prince Charles’ romance with Lady Diana Spencer providing a welcome distraction for both the public, and the Queen, as she looks to her heir to secure the line of succession to the throne.
      It debuts on Netflix on 15 November.
