Q: What's Hugh Laurie been up to since "The Night Manager"? He was amazing in that, and in "House."
Apparently producers agree with you -- Hugh Laurie has been up to more of the same.
Longtime fans of Laurie know that "House" was a career shift for him, away from the somewhat highbrow British comedy of his youth and toward often highbrow American drama -- "House" was highly respected, and "The Night Manager" won piles of awards.
Since then, his biggest role was in another medical drama, "Chance," which ran for two seasons on Hulu before getting the ax.
Young Sheldon, on CBS
Even though he’s a wiz at science and advanced mathematics, genius Sheldon Cooper (Iain Armitage) often struggles to understand human nature. The show explores the early years of the beloved “Big Bang Theory” character.

Q: I have been looking every week for the new season of "Project Runway." No coming attractions have been shown on the Lifetime Channel. Can you please fill me in on when the new season with Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn will begin? Please confirm there is a se
To answer the various parts of your question at once: you're looking in the wrong place, but if there is a season 17, it won't feature Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn.
It's been a chaotic off-season for the show. To start with, Lifetime dropped it back in the spring, but then Bravo picked it up shortly thereafter. At the time, this seemed like a safe bet for Bravo, as "Project Runway" was still a huge hit with two bankable stars at the front.
