Once again, Disney (DIS) - Get Walt Disney Company Report is finding itself embroiled in a political quagmire owing to its support of the LGBTQ community, after Florida Gov.

Netflix has canceled another one of its major shows, with this one getting the ax after only two seasons. Variety reports that hit sci-fi drama Raising Dion has been dropped by the streamer, following its recent season debut.

"Sad to say that Raising Dion is CANCELED [sic] Thank you for all of the amazing support we got from all of our wonderful fans!" Haney wrote, in part. "Season 2 was a success, equal to Season 1, even if just looking at how many people watched all of it and wanted a season 3!"

Geroge Wendt, who played Norm on the classic TV show Cheers, decided to be like Jack when he was in public. We mean Jack Nicholson here. The famed movie actor seemingly did not mind being noticed when out among the non-Hollywood crowd. Nicholson’s attitude about this did ring a bell for Wendt during his show’s incredible run on NBC and in reruns today.

The very first year Chopard was present at the Cannes Film Festival, visitors remembered an unusual creation of the house: its chocolates. “We had put out some branded treats at the Majestic hotel [where we were based] but also at the Martinez. A few people told me, ‘Ah, you’re the girl who makes the chocolates’, so I had to explain Chopard actually makes watches and jewelry,” artistic director and copresident Caroline Scheufele said, recalling how their three-person team operated out of a safe in her hotel room.
