The current global pandemic is inspiring a lot of people to look back through history to see how humans responded to the spread of similarly deadly viruses in an effort to, hopefully, learn from our mistakes and save some lives. With that in mind, let us venture back to the distant past of 2005 when a dangerous…

Recently, all sorts of celebrities have been wielding their influence to share important information about coronavirus and to let their fans know the best ways to stay safe and healthy in these scary times.

If you’re a fan of drag, whether we’re talking RuPaul’s Drag Race, Pose, Paris Is Burning, or even just your local drag brunch, then you’ve probably seen a queen wielding a handheld fan.

Listen, we’re not here to judge. We’re not here to yuck anybody’s yum. We’re just here to report the facts. And the fact is, some people are out here getting real horny for the Lion King. Specifically, these sexed-up interpretations of characters from the 1994 Disney film recently published by Los Angeles-based…

While doctors across America are putting in overtime during the coronavirus pandemic, Grey Sloan Memorial is closing up shop for the rest of the season. The Grey’s Anatomy team has officially decided they will not be returning to set to film the rest of season 16 and will end this chapter with episode 21 airing Apr.…

Cardi B is one of the few celebrities whose opinions on the news we actually want to hear. In the past, she’s mixed stuff like hosting conversations on government policy alongside her pal Bernie Sanders with an Instagram post blasting Trump whose description ends by saying, “ANYWAYS TWERK VIDEO OUT NOW.” She is the…

The educators and administrators in Cory Finley’s Bad Education aren’t actually bad at their jobs—a few of them just serve as bad examples for students in the Long Island school district. As school superintendent Frank Tassone, Hugh Jackman has a lesson plan for embezzling and for keeping his district in top academic…

Jeremy Renner, in between denying abuse allegations and reminding people that Hawkeye is actually a really popular superhero, has been hard at work launching a parallel career as a singer-songwriter.

In a rare bit of fortune these days, one fandom will actually get the goods a little early next month: Per Deadline, AMC Networks have decided to move Killing Eve’s third season premiere up by two whole weeks. Originally slated to premiere on April 26, audiences will be reunited with wayward assassin Villanelle’s…

Here’s the deal. We have some context to add to this idea, and you’ll find it further down the page. But really, the aim of this article is simple. In the grand tradition of the Lupita Nyong’o/Rihanna heist movie (which we’re really hoping is still happening?) we are simply attempting to signal-boost a very good idea…

You may have heard of Debra, Debra, and Debra, the three busy Debras at the heart of Adult Swim’s new series, Three Busy Debras, but do you know which Debra is most likely to forget to pick up their child from soccer practice? Or which Debra would start a YouTube channel for their “unboxing” videos? They may all have…

There’s a lot of important questions in the air right now. Who will save us? That’s one. But self-quarantining has our brains spinning in other directions, too. Why are Triscuits called Triscuits? we ask in these isolated times. What are Rian Johnson’s favorite movie musicals? What do the Goop people think about the…

Things are tough for most people right now, but university/college students who are just about to finish off their spring semester are facing a specifically difficult time.

Just a few days ahead of the release of Capcom’s Resident Evil 3 remake—stay tuned for our review on Monday—a new trailer has arrived to tease the horror that will soon distract us from the terror of our current day-to-day.

Here’s some fun news, our precious little raviolis: The cast of Netflix’s animated hit Big Mouth is getting ready to broadcast a live table read just for the fans (and anyone with a decent internet connection, technically). Co-creator and co-star Nick Kroll announced the impromptu, responsibly distanced charity event…

For two seasons now, Hulu’s Future Man has sent its core trio—two badass warriors from the future, and one hapless nerd of a custodian—on quests to save humanity from potential extinction. And for their troubles, they’ve been imprisoned for committing the sin of “time crimes,” and sentenced to “death by entertainment”…

Last week Alinea, the Chicago restaurant with a rare Michelin 3-Star rating and generally regarded as one of the most outstanding restaurants in the world, announced they would be offering “comfort food” takeout. This is in response to the current COVID-19 restrictions on restaurant dining rooms, and it’s a measure to…

My absolute favorite reveal this episode? Trace is absolutely terrible at being a pilot. She doesn’t even have a license! It’s a hilarious, bold choice for this show, a decision that these characters have to work through, especially as the conflicts escalate so fast. “Gone With A Trace” suggested that Trace was a…

It’s been an unusual run for Future Man, Hulu’s fitfully funny but endearingly oddball show about a nerdy janitor and two warriors from the future who team up to try and save the world from a coming apocalypse. The first two seasons saw the trio overcome their oft-combative personality clashes to prevent the…

In turbulent times, we often look to pop culture for comfort.

These…

Just to clear away any misconceptions, the one person you want to pay attention to concerning the coronavirus is not Donald Trump. Also toss out the following: anyone on the internet; Fox News; religious types blaming gay people for the disease; any civic leader who sounds like the mayor from Jaws; panicky bigots…
