Let's Form a Calming Circle - Freeform Is Airing a Hocus Pocus Anniversary Special

-

Mark your calendars, virgins! Freeform just announced that a Hocus Pocus anniversary special is headed to the network, just in time for Halloween. The film's official 25th anniversary passed back in July, but Freeform picked a slightly more appropriate time to celebrate the occasion, given all the Halloween inspiration Hocus Pocus has contributed to pop culture since it was first released in 1993.

The Hocus Pocus 25th Anniversary Halloween Bash will air on Oct. 20 as part of the network's 31 Nights of Halloween lineup, and it's set to feature interviews with a few of the movie's original castmembers: Sarah Jessica Parker, Thora Birch, Kathy Najimy, and Amanda Shepherd. Sharon and Kelly Osbourne will also be in attendance at the bash to host a costume contest, and Dove Cameron is one of three artists set to perform. It might be a while before we get that Hocus Pocus sequel, but if you're feeling antsy about it, you can at least celebrate Halloween this year by tuning in to the classic film that started it all.

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
