This summer, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two is expected to raise the bar again with heart-stopping stunts, cliff-hanging escapes, and the relentless pace we’ve come to expect from the Impossible Missions Force (IMF). But as thrilling as it is to watch Tom Cruise cling to a speeding train or leap out of a […]
If you’ve ever watched Succession, you know that the show is a fierce exploration of power, influence, and legacy, with each member of the Roy family vying to be the voice and changemaker of their family-owned company.

Corporate life is full of unspoken rules, awkward small talk, and the occasional “per my last email” power play. That’s exactly why Demoted is my favorite podcast right now.

Fifty years is quite a remarkable accomplishment, considering shows rarely last longer than 5 seasons. SNL’s longevity has been a mixture of the ability to stay current and the ability to retain talent for decades. […]
During the biggest night in music, the 2025 Grammy awards ceremony, Kanye’s wife, Bianca Censori, caused quite a commotion by walking the red carpet when she removed her coat to reveal . . . just about everything. Her dress, if you can call it that, was completely sheer. And after I uttered, “Well, that’s a […]
As reality television enthusiasts prepare for the Season 8 premiere of Netflix’s Love is Blind this Valentine’s Day, the show’s producers are navigating a recent National Labor Relations Board complaint that could lead to very real-world implications.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! If you’re anything like me, you spent your holidays watching “It Ends With Us,” a romantic drama film based on Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel, and catching up on the Blake Lively v.
