It seems unlikely at this point, but there are reasons to hope.

It's been five years since the last telefilm featuring a grim-faced Tom Selleck (which is the only Selleck we get anymore -- far from the smirking, '80s version) as Jesse Stone, a big-city cop transplanted to the small town of Paradise, Massachusetts.

Q: Ariana Grande's song "7 Rings" is a blatant copy of "My Favorite Things" from "The Sound of Music." How can she do this? Is "The Sound of Music" in the public domain?

Neither the 1959 stage musical "The Sound of Music" nor any of the songs from its book are in the public domain. So Ariana Grande got away with using its most famous song the old-fashioned way: by ponying up for it.

And no one gives their "Favorite Things" away cheaply, including the estates of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein. Reportedly, 90% of the proceeds from Grande's pop hit "7 Rings" go to the estates of the legendary duo who wrote the original musical.
