Thijs Römer, the Dutch actor, admitted to engaging in inappropriate online sexual behavior with three underage girls between 2015 and 2017. He was accused of seducing the girls, aged 14 to 16, into indecent acts through chats on social media. Römer sent and received nude photos and videos from the victims, leading to charges of possession of child pornography. During the hearing, Römer acknowledged that he "crossed a line" with one of the alleged victims, stating that he did not have a good understanding of the situation due to the significant age difference. He revealed discussing explicit topics such as sexuality and masturbation with the girl. The court demanded 240 hours of community service and a 90-day prison sentence, with most days suspended and a one-year probation period. Römer is also required to undergo compulsory treatment at De Waag, a mental health care institution in the Netherlands Source: https://nltimes.nl/2023/07/25/actor-thijs-romer-admits-crossing-line-three-underage-girls-om-demands-community-service In 2006, he married actress Katja Schuurman.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
