After five seasons, Andy Samberg’s comedy series Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been cancelled. The news was confirmed to ET by a Fox rep, which means that the network’s second-longest-running live-action comedy (behind New Girl) is about to wrap up its fifth and final season.  In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly Samberg said he was hopeful about the chance of a renewal.  “I think we’ve had an incredible season. I feel really proud of the episodes. I feel like we’ve had a really nice upswell culturally,” he said. “There was a lot of attention around the 99th episode and we got a lot of love during the Olympics, which was really cool. And there was a lot of really beautiful attention paid to the development with Rosa [Stephanie Beatriz] coming out as bi. I certainly feel we’re in a good place, but as to whether or not we get more, that’s obviously far beyond my reach,” he added. “But fingers crossed.” Also cancelled are The Mick and The Last Man on Eart

This Vegan Ice Cream Was Not Made with Frozen Smashed Bananas

Image
If you think the only way to enjoy non-dairy ice cream is by smashing a bunch of frozen bananas together, you're going to enjoy this. Let's be honest: Anyone who has tried "nice cream" has probably had the same thought.  "This is OK, but it's definitely not ice cream."  If you're unfamiliar, "nice cream" refers to vegan ice cream, which is typically made with frozen mashed bananas and other mix-ins such as fruit, peanut butter, or chocolate. The end result has the consistency of sorbet or ice cream without all the added sugar and calories. It's a dream come true for those who can't eat dairy or who simply love bananas or fruit sorbet. But let's keep it honest: It's a far cry from traditional ice cream. And furthermore, no one wants to eat the same flavor of ice cream (or any treat for that matter) over and over again.

Looks like Mel Gibson is heading behind the camera once again for a new directing gig.   The Hollywood Reporter  confirms that the 62-year-old actor will helm a new World War II naval war movie titled  Destroyer. This will be the first time the actor returns to the director’s chair after receiving an Oscar nomination for  Hacksaw Ridge. The film is based on the John Wukovits book  Hell From the Heavens: The Epic Story of the USS Laffey and World War II’s Greatest Kamikaze Attack.  When writing the book, Wukovitz used personal interviews and memoirs of crew members who had served on the ship that withstood multiple kamikaze attacks and was therefore nicknamed “The Ship That Would Not Die.” The script is penned by Rosalind Ross and will center on the Battle of Okinawa and medic Desmond Doss.  Destroyer  is being produced at Gianni Nunnari’s Hollywood Gang Productions.
