More than being a show about Hollywood or talking animals, BoJack Horseman is a show about how difficult it can be to be a good person. While it’s true that BoJack himself spends the majority of the show falling into cycles of self-destruction while simultaneously insisting he’s trying to be better, nobody exemplifies…

Though it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, Disney is once again dominating the Annie Award nominations this year, with Incredibles 2 and Ralph Breaks the Internet leading the pack with 11 and 10 nominations, respectively. As Variety reports, the Mouse House’s myriad film and TV projects scored 42 total…

In news that would likely only surprise an infant born mere moments ago, a new Disney movie took the top spot at the box office for the second week in a row. Sorry, Grinch, but everyone and their families chose Ralph Breaks The Internet as their first movie of December, dealing another blow to Christmas cheer with a…

If you watched every film The A.V. Club reviewed in 2018, you’d walk away with a fairly comprehensive grasp of the year in movies. But it wouldn’t be a complete one. Because for as much as we aim to write about all the new cinema that matters, plenty of gems slip through the cracks in our coverage plan. And so once…

To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before was a major hit for Netflix, and like any sensible purveyor of film stuffs, these guys aren’t going to let that success linger in the streaming ether. Not when there’s so much more money to be made! The good news, according to Deadline, is that we’re getting a sequel to the…

Stephen King’s books have already been optioned by the time they land in the hands of readers. It’s been that way for years. Still, it’s rare to see one of his stories get ushered into production as quickly as this year’s The Outsider, which Variety reports has been ordered to series by HBO. Also of note: Rogue One…

Most people of a certain age find it impossible to look at Rupert Grint without seeing Ron Weasley. As it turns out, the actor also has a pretty hard time separating himself from his iconic Harry Potter character. In a new interview with The Guardian, Grint (who is now 30 years old, in case you didn’t feel elderly…

Imagine Jake Paul murdering your parents. That’s a serviceable analogy for describing Jhon Jairo Velásquez, alias Popeye, a former cartel assassin turned Colombian social media star. Popeye killed 300 people by his count while working for Pablo Escobar, but since 2014 he’s been a free man, released back into society…

There’s perhaps no easier band to bag on than Hootie & The Blowfish. Blame the dopey name, the dorm floor fashion, or the tunes themselves, which, by virtue of flooding rock charts as grunge gasped its last breaths, are more or less remembered as toothless and almost insultingly simple. As we all age, however, it…

Spending time with family is what the holidays are all about. That’s the only explanation we have for why Insane Clown Posse’s Violent J joined his 12-year-old daughter at a furry convention this weekend, wearing his very own ICP-themed fursuit. That’s honestly and truly all we’ve got.

The tried-and-true remedy to a New Year’s hangover is simple: a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich, a giant bottle of Gatorade, and something good to binge. For that last part, the key is choosing the right movies or shows to watch. Understated dramas with subtitles aren’t recommended when frequently dozing off on…

Christopher Priest’s Deathstroke has been phenomenal for two and a half years, and the series has only gotten better as it brings Slade Wilson deeper into Batman’s world. The “Deathstroke Vs. Batman” storyline was a brilliant examination of the characters’ individual trauma and dysfunctional approaches to fatherhood.…

This is one of those rare, perfect occasions on which the essence of this story can really, truly be communicated by the headline alone. Nick Offerman, painted bronze, slowly sipped Lagavulin at a Chicago Blackhawks game. That’s it. That’s what happened. Look at the picture. That’s the story. Of course, we can provide…

Jameela Jamil has waged war on modern beauty standards, with The Good Place star using her public profile to condemn celebrities who shill snake oil diet supplements. Now, she’s taken her argument further by calling out the longstanding media practice of photoshopping and airbrushing females to make them appear…

It’s an old truism that sex can reduce even the most erudite among us to blithering idiots, our normally functional brains foundering upon the shores of erotic stimulation, mental capacities temporarily slowed. But look on the bright side: At least we’re not trying to write about it.

Steve Carrell might not be so hot on NBC’s potential revival of The Office, but a number of its other cast members, including A-lister John Krasinski, are into the idea. Of course, an Office revival doesn’t need Carrell to work (in fact, it’s probably a bad idea to bring him back at all), as the series boasts a deep,…

Whether you’re just starting to get into anime, or want to expand an already extensive collection, Amazon’s discounting a bunch of great Blu-rays in today’s Gold Box.

Gameological hasn’t traditionally structured its year-end round-up with some authoritative ranking, choosing instead to look back at the myriad experiences we had in games over the year and sorting for the ones we really, truly liked. The result is a list that’s as true to our writers and their own predilections as it…

It was never going to be aliens. A lot of Bob’s Burgers’ animated siblings have an elastic enough continuity that it would be at least possible for actual aliens to pick up the kids’ signal—even The Simpsons did kind of canonize Kang and Kodos, to say nothing of still more off-the-wall shows like South Park or Family…

Supergirl is a show that likes to ask tough questions and then answer them in earnest, somewhat simplistic ways. So when “Bunker Hill”—which functions as the show’s midseason finale since next week’s episode is part of the Arrowverse crossover—started to wrap up a whole bunch of plot threads, I…

Charmed drops us into the action of the sisters chasing after the electricity demon—who also apparently has the ability to teleport, too—after she got away with the scythe that opens up a portal to a demonic prison. It’s one of the better action scenes of Charmed so far, employing several of the active powers at play.…

Here’s what’s happening in the world of television for Monday, December 3. All times are Eastern.

One of the pleasures of watching Escape at Dannemora is the way the show connects action (and “Chapter Three” has plenty of action) with the internal movements of its characters. The fact that anyone who wants to know exactly how the titular caper panned out can spoil themselves with a basic Googling has freed the…

In the course of telling any story through small, sequential segments, there will come a time when one has to simply get things done—move this piece over there, change this person for that one, make this leap and pass this milestone. That’s especially true in television adaptations. Try as one might to break down a…
