AppleTV+ dropped the first trailer for limited series “The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey” on Friday, in which Samuel L. Jackson is aged 20 years to play the dementia-ridden 90-plus-year-old title character. He agrees to an experimental medical treatment to regain all his memories, but the effect is only temporary.

The six-episode series premieres globally Friday, March 11 on Apple TV+ with the first two episodes, followed by one new episode each Friday. It’s based on the 2010 novel of the same name by Walter Mosley, who also wrote the script and serves as executive producer.

The personal and the professional have a way of merging for the Reagans of "Blue Bloods."
Such was the case again in "Lost and Found," Friday's (Oct. 25) episode of the CBS police drama written by co-executive producer Daniel Truly. Frank (Tom Selleck) was alarmed to learn Father Markhum (Frank Wood, "The Newsroom"), the NYPD's chaplain, had been stopped for driving while intoxicated ... "the fourth time in two months," police chief Dino (John Ventimiglia) revealed.
The clergyman had rear-ended another car, and Frank worried that intervening would appear to be favored treatment -- something the arresting officer already had furnished by letting the priest sleep off his condition. And Frank realized such handling was "the reason I never heard about the other three Dwi's."
Later, Frank entered a confessional to talk to the chaplain, and told him to turn himself in: "Even priests do penance, Jerry."
