NFL Films joins the football legend and his four sons as they go back to explore his upbringing, career and finally reveal why he left the NFL.

ABC and Dick Clark Productions have extended their agreement for Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest for five years. The show will air on the network through Jan. 1, 2029.

The show was created in 1972 by Dick Clark, who conceived it as a younger-skewing competitor to veteran bandleader Guy Lombardo‘s long-running New Year’s Eve broadcasts on CBS. The special first aired on Dec. 31, 1972. Its first two editions were broadcast by NBC, and hosted by Three Dog Night (which had a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1972) and George Carlin, respectively, with Clark anchoring coverage from Times Square.
The show moved to ABC in 1974, and Clark took over as host. In December 2004, Clark suffered a stroke. Due to lingering speech impediments from the stroke, Clark ceded hosting duties to Ryan Seacrest the following year, but he continued to make limited appearances on the show until his death in April 2012 at age 82.
The special has been billed as Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest since 2008. It is remarkable that Clark’s name is still embedded in the name of the show, and will be through at least 2029. That is seen as a sign of Clark’s continued brand-name appeal, more than a decade after his death. It is similar to the way Walt Disney remains a reliable brand name, though he died in 1966.
Since 2000, the special has broadcast segments in prime time in addition to the late-night broadcast, initially occupying the 10 p.m. ET/PT hour. Since 2011, the special has represented the entirety of ABC’s primetime schedule on New Year’s Eve.
Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest 2023 attracted 13.8 million total viewers last year, drawing 17.9 million total viewers and hitting a 5.34 Adult 18-49 rating in the midnight quarter-hour. The show has been the top-rated New Year’s Eve programming special for more than 30 years.
This year’s iteration of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2024 is set to air live Sunday, Dec. 31, at 8 p.m. on ABC. Details around co-hosts, performers in Times Square and additional locations will be announced soon.

SM Entertainment, the K-pop titan that’s home to NCT 127, Red Velvet, aespa and others, is throwing its clout behind a new TV format, a collaborative venture that unlocks the Korean company’s passage into the European market.
Unveiled this week, SM Entertainment partners with the team at the newly-launched Moon&Back Media, for a “unique” talent show, for which its producers will find the next superstar boyband, and present it to TV audiences around the globe.
Filming over six months, the cameras will follow the journey of an emerging band as they depart London in early 2024 “on the adventure of a lifetime,” with the story unfolding in the U.K. and South Korea.
According to a statement, pre-production for the series has kicked off, and discussions are ongoing with major broadcasters, record labels and music publishers.
Both parties characterize the collaboration as a “first-of-its-kind” alliance between Korea and the U.K.
“This collaboration signifies our first footprint in Europe,” comments Joseph Chang, CEO of SM & Kakao Entertainment America, in a statement. “Our expansion blueprint will continue to span across North and South America, Europe, and other pivotal markets, leveraging SM Entertainment’s vast artist roster and extensive networks for unprecedented synergies ahead.”
Chang adds, ”we are thrilled to partner with power players who were critical in the creation and success of One Direction, and together we are aiming to find that next global sensation.”
Moon&Back was founded by multi-BAFTA-winning producer Nigel Hall (Britain’s Got Talent, The X Factor, One Direction), broadcast leader Dawn Airey (C4, C5, ITV, Sky, Getty Images), and talent manager Russ Lindsay (Ant & Dec, Simon Cowell). Asylum Group invested in Moon&Back earlier in 2023.
“This is a global first,” notes Airey, “creating a British boy band and exposing them to the wonders and rigours of the premier K-pop process with SM Entertainment. This alchemy will create compelling television and a boy band that will entertain the world.”
SM Entertainment, which also guides the careers of SuperM and RIIZE, has ramped up activities in America with several major plays. In March, SM announced that it wanted to acquire a U.S.-based company to expand into hip-hop or R&B, and in August, a so-called “local integrated corporation” in North America formed by the amalgamation of Kakao Entertainment America and SM Entertainment USA, which would be “completed quickly within this year.”
