Cody Linley is down for a Jake Ryan "Hannah Montana" spinoff ... 'cause he says his character from the show would totally be up for it!

He says you can never say never ... and that Jake will always hold a special place in his heart.

And for the burning question -- does Cody think Jake and Miley were endgame? He tells TMZ he's not too sure if they'd be together in real life, but he's certain they will always have love for one another because they're each other's first loves. He also gushes about how Miley taught his character -- who was quite self-absorbed when fans first met him -- how to be humble while still having "The Best of Both Worlds" ... it's all in the clip.

Taylor Frankie Paul's mother Liann got a late-night call from cops hours after the 2023 fight that led to Taylor's domestic violence arrest ... and she was asked about any injuries to her granddaughter from the incident.

In police body cam footage, obtained by TMZ, you can hear an officer with the Herriman City Police Department reach out to Liann around 3 AM to urgently check on her 5-year-old grandchild ... after reviewing cellphone footage from the scene.

According to the officer, that video appeared to show the young girl being hit by a metal stool during the altercation between Taylor and her boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen ... raising fears of a possible head injury or concussion that may not have been immediately obvious.

"The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star Jessi Draper sent her co-star Miranda Hope some flowers ... after it came out that she was all smoochy with Miranda's ex-husband.

Miranda posted the bouquet on social media Thursday, and the accompanying note from Jessi, who said she understands if Miranda is upset with her -- and is sorry.

Tate Paul -- Taylor Frankie Paul's ex-husband and father of 2 of her kids -- reportedly talked to cops following Taylor's infamous on-camera fight with her other ex Dakota Mortensen in 2023 ... and Tate had some shocking things to say about Taylor's mom.

People reports audio from a police call has Tate complaining about how Taylor's mother, Liann May, was interacting with their daughter after Taylor went ballistic on Dakota in front of the girl. Tate and Taylor share daughter Indy and a son named Ocean.

Tate can be heard saying, “The grandmother, is, you know, obviously there's a conflict of interest with her because it's her daughter that did this. I've noticed she's already tried gatekeeping -- not gatekeeping -- but, like, she's coaching my daughter and saying specific things."

Bill Cosby was just "having a good time" back in the day when he was giving Quaaludes to women in hopes of having sex with them ... and that's a real quote from his former manager.

Andrew Wyatt joined us on "TMZ Live" Thursday and we asked him about 88-year-old Bill losing a civil lawsuit to Donna Motsinger, who alleged he drugged and raped her in 1972.

Incredibly, Andrew says Cosby feels like he's being singled out because he was not the only entertainer "having a good time" in the '70s. Yeah.

'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' star Mary Cosby is back to work on the Bravo show, weeks after her son Robert Cosby Jr.’s death, TMZ has learned.

Savannah Guthrie believes the 2 ransom notes her family received regarding her mother Nancy Guthrie's disappearance were legit.

The "Today" host reflected on the ransom notes during her sitdown with Hoda Kotb ... saying she believes the notes her family responded to are real, and the rest likely phony.

We were first to report on a ransom note back in February ... demanding millions in bitcoin, while claiming Nancy was safe but frightened. We received that note and immediately contacted the Pima County Sheriff, and hours later, we received the first of many calls from the FBI.

What's puzzling ... Savannah said early on her family would pay the ransom, but we have been monitoring the bitcoin address and the money was never paid. We know the family was in constant contact with the FBI, but we do not know if there was a change of heart.
