Walking Dead actor Andrew Lincoln's new thriller series is coming to Showtime soon
We all fell in love with Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes on The Walking Dead and have been eagerly waiting for his return to the role after his short stint in The Ones Who Live
If you’re in the U.K., you might be saying, "Been there, done that!" That’s because it first aired on ITV in September 2025. But for those in the United States, we've been waiting patiently to see it. All we had to watch were short clips and fan edits of the show posted on social media. Imagine how difficult it was to get tiny glimpses of the series and not the whole thing. It definitely wasn't an enjoyable experience.
But soon, U.S. viewers won’t have to settle for teasers or tiny snippets anymore! Showtime just made a big announcement. It has acquired the U.S. rights to Lincoln’s highly anticipated thriller,
Early 2026 consists of the months of January, February, March, and sometimes April. That said, Coldwater is expected to arrive sometime during those months. Obviously, we'd like to see the show sooner rather than later, so a premiere in January or February would be perfect. But we'll just have to wait and see what release date is officially announced.
The press release didn't specify if the show will air on Paramount+ with Showtime or only stream on Paramount+ for Premium plan subscribers. However, our guess is that it will do both. In other words, it will be available for streaming on Paramount+ first, and then have its on-air debut on Paramount+ with Showtime. That's what it will be doing for another British show it just acquired, which is
Coldwater is described as a twisted thriller series. Created and written by David Ireland (Derry Girls), it stars Lincoln as John, a middle-aged, stay-at-home dad whose seemingly normal life unravels when he befriends his charming new neighbor, Tommy, who harbors dark and dangerous secrets.
Ewen Bremner, who is best known for roles in Trainspotting and Our Flag Means Death, plays Tommy, the charismatic yet sinister neighbor whose influence pulls John into a dangerous and unpredictable world. Also in the cast are Eve Myles, Indira Varma, and Lorn Macdonald.
Vanderpump Rules Star Lala Kent Left Stunned as Daughter Ocean Calls Half Sister the B Word in Shocking TikTok Moment
In the world of Bravo, drama isn’t just reserved for the cast — sometimes it comes straight from the kids. Vanderpump Rules star
The clip, filmed on Lala’s phone and later posted to TikTok, captured Ocean calling her half-sister
In the video, Ocean confidently dropped the insult before Lala quickly stepped in to correct her. What shocked fans even more was Ocean’s emotional response. “My mom got mad at me and that makes my feelings really hurt,” she said, her little voice cracking with sincerity. The mix of humor and heartbreak struck a chord with followers, reminding them that kids often repeat what they hear without understanding the weight of their words.
The bigger question, of course, became: Where did Ocean pick up the term? Many fans were quick to speculate that she overheard it from her father, Randall Emmett, given the rocky history between Lala and her ex. The internet was quick to point out that children tend to mirror the language used by adults around them — and for Ocean, that environment has been anything but ordinary.
Still, some Bravo watchers were quick to defend Ocean’s slip-up, noting that nearly every parent has had a moment where their child blurts out something shocking they clearly didn’t invent on their own. “Kids say the craziest things,” one fan posted, while another added, “This is what happens when they repeat what they hear — Randall better not be talking like that around her.”
For Lala, the incident is another reminder of how much public scrutiny comes with parenting under the spotlight. The Vanderpump Rules star has been candid about her struggles raising Ocean as a single mom, especially while navigating her ongoing battles with Randall. Despite the chaos, she has made it clear that her daughter remains her number one priority.
As for Ocean’s viral TikTok moment, fans can expect it to live on in Bravo lore alongside some of the show’s most iconic one-liners. After all, in the world of Vanderpump Rules, drama doesn’t skip a generation — it only evolves.
