Apparently, the surefire way to create a successful YouTube interview series is to start by buying a ton of chicken. Both chicken-based talk shows—that’s Sean Evan’s Hot Ones and Amelia Dimoldenberg’s Chicken Shop Date—are breaking out of their digital confines to compete for real-live Emmy awards this year.

Look what they’ve taken from us, Jonesheads! Our beloved Daisy Jones & The Six was largely snubbed during awards season—it didn’t even get nominated for the Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics Emmy, despite giving us the ultimate earworm “Honeycomb (Look At Us Now).” Now we come to find out we were actually supposed…

Why’d fans have to go and make things so complicated? We see the way they’re actin’ like Avril Lavigne is somebody else and it gets her frustrated.

There are times when this whole film critic gig feels paltry, when writing a few hundred words moments after a decade of toil, tens of millions of dollars from a personal fortune, and the hours and talents of hundreds of performers and craftspeople have all gathered to bring the singular vision of an irascible yet…

Never Let Go—the upcoming film from Piranha 3D and The Hills Have Eyes director Alexandre Aja—explores a particularly salient childhood anxiety, as many of the best horror films do. Did your parents ever insist on a preventative ritual—anything from religious practices to daily Flinstones vitamins—that your young mind…

The year was 2018, and we were knee-deep in the greatest summer of our lives. After all, the air conditioning is cheap when the movies are free because Moviepass, the frankly ludicrous subscription service, had convinced itself that giving movie tickets away was the fastest way to make a buck. For $9.95 a month,…

Earlier this month, it was announced that Travis Kelce was further entrenching himself in Hollywood by joining the cast of Ryan Murphy’s latest new horror series, Grotesquerie. It’s not a particular surprise that Kelce would want to further explore acting: he’s had a dating reality show, appeared in a Tim…

After 16 years of axe-wielding, needle-dropping, and door-knocking scares, The Strangers have become all too familiar. When Bryan Bertino’s 2008 original asked, “Is Tamara home?” the home invasion felt like a novel avenue for slashers. With added authenticity and a sense of criminal mundanity, The Strangers became a…

It shouldn’t come as news that a huge, potentially final movie by one of the world’s great filmmakers—one that literally has the word “mega” in the title—is set to open on some of cinema’s biggest screens. And yet!

Criminal Minds went off the air in 2020 and returned with a new look in 2022. Now streaming on Paramount+ (rather than its old home at CBS), Criminal Minds: Evolution took a serialized approach to the storytelling rather than the case-of-the-week format that the broadcast version typically followed. That’s…

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is miles away from speeding into theaters worldwide, which means fans are already asking for just one thing—more. Unfortunately, there’s no big sequel announcement here; technically, as Furiosa goes back in the story’s timeline to track the origins of Charlize Theron’s original character…

If you’re aware of publishing trends or “BookTok” (the community of readers making content about books on TikTok), then you’re also aware of Colleen Hoover. After many years of writing (and often self-publishing), Hoover became an unexpected literary phenomenon when social media users started promoting her work during…

Children’s films are always positioned to memorialize the imaginative worlds in our heads, acting as shrines to those places that shrink as real life constricts us, growing more abrasive and demanding. On the surface, writer/director John Krasinski’s IF is destined to succeed in such an oversaturated arena; Bea…

For a show that repeatedly raises the question “What the fuck is going on here,” Evil is remarkably sure of itself. The best part of this Paramount+ series is its confidence in navigating flabbergasting situations and relationships. This makes it easy to sink into Evil’s kooky, spooky world even when it gets…

You know how, during the COVID lockdown, we all collectively got obsessed with Tiger King? And now we’re all collectively a little embarrassed to have liked Tiger King that much, because Tiger King isn’t that good? Bridgerton was a later lockdown phenomenon, a canceled-Christmas gift from Netflix that brought some…

Actor Charlyne Yi has alleged that they were “physically assaulted” and “psychologically abused” on the set of Taika Waititi’s Time Bandits TV show, according to their own social media. Writing on Instagram, the actor said they were targeted by an unnamed co-star on the series, who allegedly injured them during…

Conan O’Brien’s toils must continue, overlords at Max declared today, as the streamer announced—as part of its much bigger upfronts presentation—that O’Brien’s recent travel show, Conan O’Brien Must Go, has been extended for a second, and even longer, new season. Whereas the first season of the series—which saw…

Netflix announced today that it’s renewing its sci-fi adaptation 3 Body Problem for a second season. The news serves not just a vote of confidence for the series, which stars Rosalind Chao, Benedict Wong, John Bradley, and many more as scientists and spies caught up in a planet-spanning tale of an oncoming alien…

What started as a straightforward revenge flick about a man who wanted the heads of the Russian gangsters who killed his dog and stole his car is now an action movie juggernaut. The satellites orbiting the John Wick franchise, which now includes a TV show, an upcoming spin-off, and three sequels to the original, are…
