From across the pond, ITV has green-lit new episodes of "The Cube," which first aired from 2009-15. No word at this time when the new episodes will premiere, or if Philip Schofield returns as host.

Sounds like it is. Deadline is reporting that WarnerMedia has picked up the show for 10 episodes, with ex-hoops star Dwyane Wade hosting ...

In a curious note, WarnerMedia has apparently not decided where this will air yet. The media giant has been pushing a great deal of fresh content for its HBO Max streamer in recent weeks, so it's certainly possible the show could exclusively launch there. But there's a strong sports commitment on TBS, TNT and TruTV (NBA, MLB, March Madness, AEW) -- an athletic-style show with an NBA great fronting it could definitely see a tie-in with, say, March Madness on the "Turner networks."
