THE HUB

The galaxy far, far away returns to theaters with The Mandalorian and Grogu, the latest chapter continuing the story that began in The Mandalorian. But does the father-son duo actually justify the price of an IMAX ticket? As a casual Star Wars fan, I’m the target audience for a lot of this modern Lucasfilm era. I’ve seen all the main films and caught some of the Disney+ shows but please don’t ask me hyper-specific lore questions. If you want to know exactly what a background

The episode opens with a flashback to Alamo’s childhood. Young Alamo lived with his mother, who warned him that a man named Preston would soon be coming over to “take care of them.” She also told Alamo that Preston was not a conventionally attractive man and warned him not to say anything about it. When Preston first arrives, Alamo is frightened by the scars on his face, but he quickly realizes Preston is kind-hearted. Preston takes Alamo out for ice cream, and we learn more

Step aside, Ghost, there is a new crime boss in town and he has significantly better taste in tailored suits. When Netflix announced a mega-deal with Power universe creator Courtney Kemp, we expected high stakes, complicated family loyalty and plenty of drama. Her latest offering delivers exactly that, wrapped in a glossy, high-speed package. Co-created with Tani Marole, the eight-episode thriller attempts to bridge the gap between premium prestige television and the guilty-p

The Hunt is On: Cop Killers in the Hub The episode wastes zero time dialing up the adrenaline. A dreaded "10-13" emergency call rings out over the scanners, confirming that an officer is down and sending the precinct into a frenzy. Danny Reagan, Lena Silver, and the rest of the squad quickly realize they aren't dealing with a routine random act of violence. Instead, they are tracking a calculated, lethal criminal who has deliberately placed a target on the backs of Boston's f

This season finale continues directly from last week’s episode, and it immediately pulls everything into motion without giving anyone time to breathe. Imani has finally found Shari, the sister she has been searching for ever since Shari was abducted at six years old. After more than two decades of silence and uncertainty, the truth is now sitting in front of both of them, but Shari refuses to accept it. From the very first conversation, Imani is trying to break through, expla

The naughtiest neighborhood in Rutshire is officially open for business again. After a grueling wait, the hit 1980s bonkbuster has returned to screens, dropping a three-episode premiere on Hulu and Disney+. Picking up immediately after that bloody broadcasting award cliffhanger, the new installment delivers the exact brand of glossy, beautifully dressed ridiculousness that television desperately needs right now. This opening trilogy sets up a brutal corporate war, a series of

The penultimate episode of Ghosts Season 5, titled "Polar Opposites," proves that even as Woodstone Manor prepares to wrap up another season, the writing remains as sharp, ridiculous and delightfully unhinged as ever. With the finish line in sight, CBS delivers an episode that perfectly balances the series’ signature supernatural gaslighting with some genuinely sweet, if entirely bizarre, relationship milestones. This week's installment raises the stakes with a Hollywood pitc

Wow, what an episode. Every time Sheriff Country drops a new hour of television, it feels like the writers are daring the audience to guess their next move, only to completely flip the board. Season 1, Episode 19, titled "Compromised," proves that this show refuses to slow down, delivering a staggering web of crooked land deals, family drama and a final-act twist that fundamentally changes the landscape of Edgewater. For a network procedural, the body count and the betrayal l

The narrator, Betty Heymouth, begins with a flashback to New York City when she could walk out of her apartment building, stroll down 2nd Avenue, and find herself in front of Elaine’s Restaurant. Those were the days of glamour and secrets. She would sit in a corner of the restaurant with a well-known publicist who would feed her bits of information she could use for her newspaper column. Now glamour has disappeared and been replaced by clarity, with everything out in the open

Finally, Paramount+ drops the highly anticipated series premiere of Dutton Ranch. The two-part premiere, consisting of “The Untold Want” and “Earn Another Day” officially relocates television's most toxic, power couple to the Lone Star State. Beth is still delivering venomous lines with total precision, Rip is bringing his familiar quiet menace and the show has wisely traded the exhausting political baggage of Montana for a localized Texas turf war. Episode: "The Untold Want"

Scott Foley has spent much of his career playing the reliable romantic lead or the calculated operative, but in Amazon Prime Video’s It’s Not Like That, he pivots toward something far more fragile. Slated for a mid-May release, the eight-episode series casts Foley back in the binge-worthy spotlight, as Pastor Malcolm Jeffries, a widowed father struggling with the profound loss of his wife while raising three teenagers. The Intersection of Grief and Hope The series opens a yea

The air in the kitchen was thick enough to cut with a dull paring knife during this week's semi-final of Next Level Chef. With the finale in sight, the pressure didn’t just rise, it hit the ceiling. The theme of the night was "Legacy," challenging the final four to create a dish they would want to be remembered for. It sounds poetic, but in the world of Gordon Ramsay, legacy usually tastes like sweat and high-stakes gambles. In a twist that felt like a culinary version of Rus

Wake up BookTok, Off Campus Season 1 has officially dropped on Prime and it is everything and more. Based on the bestselling romance series by Elle Kennedy, Season 1 follows The Deal, centering on shy music major Hannah Wells and Briar U star hockey captain Garrett Graham.

The King and Queen of Montana have officially abdicated their throne, but don’t expect them to go quietly into that good night. After the smoke cleared on the original Yellowstone saga, fans were left wondering if Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler could ever actually find peace. The answer, provided by the high-octane premiere of the new spinoff series Dutton Ranch, is a resounding no and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Having screened the first four episodes ahead of the May 15

The auditions are finally in the rearview mirror, and MasterChef Season 16 has officially hit its stride with the premiere of the main competition. This year, the kitchen has been rebranded as a Global Gauntlet, a high-stakes culinary tournament clearly designed to capitalize on the upcoming World Cup hype. We have our Top 20, divided into four distinct territories: Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia-Pacific and the atmosphere in the studio is vibrating with the kind of nervo

Prime Video’s anti-superhero flagship has never been a series to pull its punches, but the latest episode just brought the devastation straight to the titular team’s front door. In the penultimate entry of the final season, titled "The Frenchman, the Female, and the Man Called Mother's Milk," The Boys officially crossed a line from which they can never return. Yes, the leaks were right: Frenchie is dead. After seven years of watching minor supes get blended into paste, the co

Marvel Studios finally remembered where they hid the industrial-sized buckets of fake blood. The newly released Disney+ Marvel Studios Special Presentation, The Punisher: One Last Kill, dropped onto the streaming platform this week, proving that Kevin Feige can actually let a project breathe without forcing a neon-colored CGI sky-beam into the climax. Clocking in at a lean 50 minutes, this television movie features Jon Bernthal reprising his definitive role as Frank Castle. C

If you’re looking for a reason to cancel your weekend plans and rot on the couch with a glass of wine, Acorn TV just handed it to you on a silver platter. Their latest original series, You’re Killing Me, managed to land on my screen for an early look and I’m happy to report it’s the exact kind of fun murder mystery we’ve been craving. It’s light, it’s witty and it doesn’t take itself so seriously that you feel like you’re doing homework. The Dynamic Duo You Didn’t Know You Ne

CBS has officially pulled the plug on DMV after just one season and while the finale titled "Impact Will Be Felt" tried to offer closure, it mostly delivered a case of narrative whiplash. In true workplace comedy fashion, the East Hollywood branch went out not with a bang, but with a fender bender and a series of awkward revelations. From long-awaited romantic blunders to the soul-crushing discovery that corporate heroes are actually white-collar criminals, the final episode

Ever since Brandon Fontaine tagged Cassie on his account, her career has started exploding. Cassie Howard (Sydney Sweeney) is now making private videos using dildos, saying people’s names, selling underwear, and even farting in jars, all to make a profit. Maddy Perez (Alexa Demie) couldn’t be happier. Maddy is putting a lot of effort into managing Cassie’s career, and she finally hits 50K followers. The director does a very interesting cinematic scene where Cassie becomes
