HBO Max released the first trailer for upcoming comedy series “Minx,” starring Ophelia Lovibond and Jake Johnson.
Set in 1970s Los Angeles, “Minx” follows Joyce (Lovibond) — a young feminist activist looking to launch a women’s magazine. When she can’t find anyone to publish her idea as is, she ends up teaming with a low-rent pornographic magazine publisher Doug (Johnson) to create the first erotic magazine for women. But when their creation “Minx” launches, it proves a lightning rod of controversy as protestors aim to shut it down.
The trailer shows Lovibond and Johnson’s characters launching the magazine and auditioning models, while teasing the tense dynamic between the two.
“God you love a pyrrhic victory,” Lovibond says to Johnson in the trailer. “I don’t know what that means so it doesn’t hurt my feelings,” Johnson replies.
In addition to Lovibond and Johnson, the cast also includes Idara Victor,...

Oprah Winfrey said she is no longer working as a contributor to “60 Minutes,” saying the legendary news magazine wasn’t a good fit for her.
“It was not the best format for me,” Winfrey told The Hollywood Reporter in a profile for the latest issue of their magazine.
“How should I say this? Never a good thing when I have to practice saying my name and have to be told that I have too much emotion in my name,” she continued. “I think I did seven takes on just my name because it was ‘too emotional.’ I go, ‘Is there too much emotion in the Oprah part or the Winfrey part?’ I was working on pulling myself down and flattening out my personality, which, for me, is actually not such a good thing.”

Food Network personality Rachael Ray has signed a deal with King World Prods., Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Prods. and Scripps Networks to host a daytime talk show targeted to launch in fall 2006. The syndicated one-hour show, which will focus on more than just cooking, will aim to make viewers' lives easier in a "fun, simple way," said Terry Wood, president of creative affairs and development at King World and Paramount Domestic Television, who described it as a "can-do show the Rachael Ray way." The project marks the first to go into development since Wood expanded her responsibilities in January to oversee development and production of new programming for Viacom's syndication divisions.
