The cast of Yellowstone have been putting out some real mixed signals ahead of the debut of the show’s fifth and supposedly final season. They’ve already said that the final season has a “perfect ending,” but now, the stars have confirmed that there are ongoing talks about continuing the story of at least some members of the Dutton family beyond season 5.

There was initial reporting in August that Yellowstone stars Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser were in talks to continue with their characters in some capacity, and now, Reilly has confirmed that discussions are happening.

“There’s potentially another chapter. It’s being talked about now. Nothing is set in stone. But if Taylor wants to write it, I would want to do it,” she said. “That’s it. Because he’s the one that’s written every single line I’ve ever said. She came from his imagination. But we’re both in agreement that there’s a shift that has to take place. Because you can’t keep telling the same story. This story is ending. Yellowstone as we know it is ending, but if there is more story to tell with some of the characters, it’s going to be a little different.”

It sounds like it’s not a sure thing at this point, but it seems like a distinct possibility that Yellowstone could be getting a direct spin-off of some sort. The show has already produced a number of prequel series that tell earlier stories set in the same universe.

The second half of the show’s fifth season is set to debut in November after being delayed by writing delays and the actor’s strike. Even if there is more story in this universe, it will certainly be the end of an era.

Although there are few shows in the history of TV that have had a larger impact on world events, for much of Donald Trump's political life, The Apprentice has not been available to stream. Now, Deadline is reporting that the show's first seven seasons will be available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.

The show, which starred Trump as the all-knowing business executive who gathered regular people, and then eventually celebrities, to compete for a spot inside the Trump organization, was a ratings success, and helped to further Trump's public image as a successful businessman.

The Lumon building from ‘Severance’ is just a short drive from New York City
The building was built in the 1960s, and was abandoned in 2007 before being revived in 2013
The Severance Building.

If you've actually watched Severance, you probably know that the Lumon headquarters where Mark and his friends go to work every day isn't exactly the most welcoming building. If you're the kind of person that just has to know whether you're secretly severed, though, you can visit the real-life location where the exteriors of the Lumon headquarters are filmed.

As it turns out, the building is the Bell Works building in Holmdel, New Jersey. It was once the home of Bell Labs, the research arm for AT&T. The building is now home to multiple business, and according to reporting in Curbed, it was first designed in 1962 by architect Eero Saarinen and was opened as a mid-century office space.
