Get ready to experience a toe-tapping blast from the past. Recently, on the cartoon-focused YouTube channel The Broom Cupboard Club, London-based DJ Geggs shared a new mashup of Saturday morning cartoon theme songs that is way catchier than it has any right to be. While the actual content of some of these shows may…

Oh boy. Disney, ever the optimist, has rescheduled the theatrical release of the thoroughly embattled New Mutants. And what you read next just may shock you.

Ethan Hawke remains one of this generation’s greatest, most ambitious actors, having pivoted his child stardom into a career that nimbly leaps between big-budget tentpoles, gnarly genre flicks, and daring arthouse fare. It’s a shame, then, that, after crashing Hawke’s new interview with their dad, Jimmy Fallon’s kids…

Watch This offers movie recommendations inspired by new releases, premieres, current events, or occasionally just our own inscrutable whims. This week: We’re dusting off a Watch This tradition and looking back on unsung summer blockbusters—the big movies that opened to critical scorn or audience indifference during…

FX quietly released its three-part adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol late last year in one unwieldy chunk, likely due to the fact that it was, by and large, pretty bad.

When Reno 911! first premiered on Comedy Central, it was 2003, and we practically lived in a different world. Up was down, black was white, and while cell phones were around, they weren’t the content delivery services they are now. A lot has happened in the time the show premiered, both on-screen and off, and anyone…

The first season of Doom Patrol, DC Universe’s wonderfully warped adaptation of the comics, was some of the best TV of last year, the rare live-action version of a superhero property not afraid to get as outlandish as its source material. (And if you’re not sure just how weird the show is compared to its mostly…

Generation Z is an innocuous-sounding title for the generation currently coming of age. These kids are the ones who are facing down environmental collapse, massive economic inequality, and a resurgent far-right as they enter adulthood. It’s no wonder they’re also the generation that’s given us the “doomer,” a…

You have to hand it to creator Noelle Stevenson and her cracking team of writers: She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power’s fourth and penultimate season ended with a classic, yet potent moment of epic buildup. Closing the season with Adora’s (Aimee Carrero) tough decision to destroy the Sword Of Protection—effectively…

Over the last two months, we’ve covered a number of ways the pandemic has forced people to get a bit more innovative. There have been late night host turning their bathtubs into makeshift stages and sports announcers using their skills to narrate daily life, aquariums offering virtual jellyfish meditation sessions and …

The CW continues to expand its superhero universe, now adding DC’s Stargirl to the lineup. Although the Justice Society Of America-associated character has appeared in other CW like Smallville and DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow, Brec Bassinger (who showed up briefly as Stargirl in “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Five”) now…

That “Epstein didn’t kill himself” has become a rallying cry for right-wing loons doesn’t negate the fact that the heinous crimes of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein run deeper than most probably realize. Just within the last month it was revealed that MIT and Harvard University had been downplaying their extensive…

We probably won’t see a film or television adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman anytime soon, but at least Audible and DC’s new audiobook version has a good cast. So there’s that. Audible has announced the full lineup for its exclusive production of The Sandman, based on Gaiman’s best-selling graphic novel of the…

No one would ever accuse Eric Trump of being a rocket scientist, but he’s usually at least a touch more coherent than his rambling, all-caps pops. On Tuesday, however, Eric attempted to tweet out a scathing bon mot directed at the Democratic leadership that left people scratching their heads even more than usual.

Great news, quarantined Americans: You’re getting more shit to stream this summer. HBO Max has officially announced its “second wave” of programming, with summer premiere dates for a whole slew of new and returning original series—including TBS acquisition Search Party, a fantastic and criminally under-viewed series…

Around the turn of the millennium, Tony Hawk was video games’ top skater boi, but time said, “see you later, boy” to his series. It wasn’t good enough for us. A decade later, we sit at home, missing his games, we’re all alone. We turn on TV, guess what we see? Skater boy rockin’ in remastered HD.

The actor: Much has changed for character actress Margo Martindale since we last sat down with her for a Random Roles interview. For one, you can’t say “character actress Margo Martindale” without thinking of the violent, foul-mouthed version of her running around Hollywoo on BoJack Horseman, voiced with glee by…

If you’ve read a tweet from Donald Trump, you’ve probably read a tweet from Joey Saladino. And if you’ve scrolled through the replies to a tweet from Joey Saladino, you’ve probably seen a photo of him pissing into his own mouth. Best known as Joey Salads, the YouTube prankster-turned-Trump reply guy has long been one…

I know I’ve complained about how Mrs. America organizes its episodes by character, but “Bella” shows how good the payoff can be. Unlike a lot of the other characters with their own episodes, Bella has had a clear narrative in the series before her episode. She has clear relationships with all the characters, even the…

Moses Sumney is nothing if not ambitious. After two modest EPs of bare-bones home recordings, he delivered a debut album comprised of falsetto-laced, often drumless freak-folk proclamations against pop music’s favorite subject: romantic love. That album, 2017’s Aromanticism, proved subversive in other ways Sumney…

We stopped keeping count of how many days we’ve been sheltering in place two weeks ago—or was it three? Oh, well, doesn’t matter. With little clarity about when shelter-in-place orders will be lifted in states across the U.S., or if it’s even safe to go outside in areas where they’ve already been lifted, we’ve decided…

Citing his special guest expert as a friend of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert gave things on Tuesday over to everybody’s friend and person with whom podcasting would simply cease to exist, Paul F. Tompkins. Seated regally, Masterpiece Theater-style, in a plush armchair and dressed even more to the nines than usual,…

It’s taken a lot to do this but here goes. I am a 38-year-old gay male. I have been dating this guy for one year and ten months. It’s been a lot of work. He cheated on me numerous times and he lives with me and doesn’t work and I’ve been taking care of him for seven months now. He always accuses me of cheating or…

There are some reliable greatest-hits in the Legends repertoire. Tributes to other films and television shows, nearly always top-notch. Lots of good zombies in their past. Basically anytime Sara Lance has to kick her own team’s ass, that’s excellent, especially if she’s also kicking her own ass. But some of the very…
