“Orange is the New Black” was everyone’s go-to summer binge show, so it’s pretty disheartening to hear that one of the stars of the show will be leaving during the second season.
It was reported last month that Laura Prepon would not be a series regular in the second season of the Netflix show, however, many still believed she would be returning for at least half the season.
According to a Buzzfeed report from this week, Prepon is only returning for one episode to wrap up her character’s storyline. The actress reportedly only signed on for one season to begin with which is odd considering her character, Alex Vause, plays a central role in the life of the main character, Piper Chapman.
Her character is also has one of the most interesting storylines on the show.
Prepon has yet to comment on the reason why she would leave such a successful show after one season. 
Girl, this show is what made you relevant again after “That 70’s Show.” Don’t blow it.

In an intense battle between two seasoned late-night TV hosts, only one will reign as champion.
While many hosts try, this week’s battle was between the two that share a name: Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel.
Fallon debuted “Joking Bad” this week which is a parody of AMC’s hit show, “Breaking Bad.” The parody takes us into Fallon’s double life as he “cooks” the purest jokes in a lab and later has his immature, street-savvy assistant sell them on the streets.
Check it out for yourself:

Jimmy Kimmel really outdid himself this week as well.
A few weeks ago, a video of the biggest “twerk fail” went viral on YouTube. In the video, a girl is twerking alone in her apartment when things go terribly wrong and she falls on her table and catches on fire (there were lit candles on the table, of course).
After weeks of being blasted on social media and countless TV news stations, Kimmel revealed that he actually staged the twerk fail.
Here’s the video:

Now that you’ve had a chance to see both of these epic videos, which Jimmy do you think had the best one? Tell us in the comments below!

The film is first in a new series and will follow the author of the fictitious book, Newt Scamander.
Rowling emphasized that the series will not be a prequel or sequel of the Harry Potter series, but an “but an extension of the wizarding world.”
Rowling also added that the film will take place in New York, 70 years before Harry was even born.
Since it is still early in the process, a release date and casting news have not been announced yet.

All this week on CBS’ “The Talk,” the hosts are revealing some of their darkest secrets.
Moderator, Julie Chen, revealed on Wednesday’s show that when she was 25-years-old she underwent plastic surgery to make her eyes bigger.
Chen, who is of Asian descent, said that what pushed her to get the procedure was a former boss who told her that her appearance would stop her from having an anchor position on television.
 ”I have to live with every decision that I’ve made,” Chen said. “And it got me to where we are today. And I’m not going to look back.”
While Chen’s revelation did spark some controversy, the Asian American Journalists Association released a statement of support.
“AAJA applauds Ms. Chen for sharing this personal moment with her audience. Her story chronicles some of the daily struggles Asian Americans face in the workplace across all industries, not just in broadcast journalism,” the statement read.
