TV Line reports HBO has ordered The Baby, a new “darkly comic horror series” from Sex Education co-executive producer Sian Robins-Grace and Lucy Gaymer (Gangs of London). The story centres on “38-year-old Natasha, whose self-centered life of doing whatever she wants whenever she wants comes to a screeching halt when she has a surprise baby. But the kid is a lot more trouble than just a few soiled diapers. Controlling, manipulative and with violent powers, the baby twists Natasha’s life into a horror show. Where does it come from? What does it want? And what lengths will Natasha have to go to in order to get her life back?”

According to Alex Kurtzman in an interview with Gold Derby, the upcoming Captain Pike spinoff series Strange New Worlds begins filming next year.

I can stay quiet no longer.”]
