That used to be the norm, and then when you strayed, that was the out of whack part. Now the out of whack part is fairly common, and staying and doing what you're supposed to do is stunning to people.

Chris Messina, best known for his work on The Mindy Project as heartthrob-toxic waste of space Danny (depending on whom you ask), is being offered a role on the show, per Deadline. If he accepts the offer, which would make sense for him to do since this show scored eight acting Emmy nominations last year, he'll join a cast that also reportedly includes Oscar nominee Helena Bonham Carter.

You're probably (unfortunately) at least vaguely familiar with some pretty infamous serial killers in the U.S., like Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer. However, you may never have heard of Stephen Morin, even though his suspected crimes rival both Bundy's and Dahmer's in number. And although none of these pieces of sh*t deserve to be immortalized, what makes Fear Not unique is that it tells Morin's story through the lens of a survivor's lived experience.

Its AI Picture Pro feature further enhances image quality by adjusting brightness, resolution, clarity, and other settings based on what you're watching. Plus, LG offers Dolby Atmos support for sound that feels more immersive, while offering easy access to popular streaming apps like Netflix, Max, Disney Plus, Hulu, and Apple TV Plus right out of the box. On the gaming side, the TV includes four HDMI 2.1 ports and support for AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync.

It's hard to make peace with the end of a new Star Trek show, especially after years without any Star Trek on the small screen at all - and especially when it comes to a great show like Lower Decks. The Trek franchise is always searching for a new corner of the final frontier to explore, but the animated comedy felt like the freshest addition to the world in decades.

After the 2026 Golden Globes, Hamnet director Chloe Zhao was asked what message she wanted viewers to take away from her work. "What is grief, but love persevering?," she answered, while the cast nodded in agreement. It sounds like a beautiful maxim from Shakespeare itself, but it actually came from the Marvel Cinematic Universe - something Zhao would know, as she herself made an MCU movie. Its origin, Jac Schaeffer's show WandaVision, was the first MCU TV show to premiere on Disney+, and it set a high bar for the rest of the franchise - one that sparked a movie, two spinoff series, and countless comparisons to other shows.

There's something different about the "Heated Rivalry" online fandom from what I typically see - something strange brewing in the feeds, something I haven't seen in a long time, or maybe ever. It's easy for a topic to suddenly take over my Instagram Reels or TikTok feeds - those algorithms seem so sensitive that interacting with just a handful of posts on a topic can instantly send you down a rabbit hole.

Wonder Project quietly enlisted a group of eight social media creators last year to help promote shows such as Amazon Prime Video's " House of David " and the upcoming family drama "It's Not Like That." The creators were given broad access to Wonder Project series, including early screeners, set visits, clips and other assets that are ready-made for creators to craft social media posts that help spread the word about the shows.

It's been one blunder after another during the early days of the Tony Dokoupil era at CBS Evening News. From night one, the flagship broadcast of the Eye's news division has been marred by technical mess-ups, bizarre attempts to suck up to the Trump administration, low-key humiliation by President Trump, and an anchor who seems to think he has earned the right to pontificate at the end of the show like he's a latter-day Cronkite.

There are few shows that leave me hungry - no, starving - for more like Pluribus did. The hit Vince Gilligan Apple TV show, starring Rhea Seehorn as one of the few survivors of a virus that turns the entire world into happy, one-minded, sentient beings, is so damn smart and funny and bold. Seehorn, already winning awards for her role as writer Carol Sturka, is a vulnerable, generous actor who never seems to hold back - and I think we're all desperate for more.

A weekend morning meteorologist at 7News in Boston is now an on-air host with FOX Weather. Melanie Black started her new role Thursday, which is based in New York City, according to a release from FOX Weather, which is a free, ad-supported steaming television (FAST) service.

Unlike most people, fainting at work is a rite of passage; she moderates videos on social media that have been reported for violating the terms of service. That means watching everything from horrible porn to horrible politics to horrible accidents and everything in between, a non-stop diet of videos with titles such as fetus in blender or strangulation but she doesn't die.

Hijack, originally conceived as a limited miniseries, is back on Apple TV for its second season with Idris Elba again at the center of a large-scale hostage situation. This time, the action unfolds underground in the Berlin U-Bahn with hundreds of passengers on their daily commute. Impressively, Hijack remains virtually intact from its freshman season. It's still the same high-stakes yet grounded thriller for grownups that assumes you're giving it undivided attention, not laundry or doomscrolling at the same time.

These days, movies and television shows based on video games are all the rage. But God of War on Prime Video will take "rage" quite literally. A new live-action series based on the PlayStation franchise God of War is coming soon to Prime Video. Not only is the show in development from acclaimed TV auteur Ronald D. Moore (responsible for hits like Battlestar Galactica, Outlander, and For All Mankind), it will star Ryan Hurst in the lead role of Kratos.

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... Los Angeles law enforcement sources are shedding more light on Kiefer Sutherland's most recent arrest after the 24 star allegedly threatened to kill his Uber driver this week. The two-time Emmy winner, 59, was arrested for felony criminal threats just after midnight on Monday. He was released later that day on $50,000 bond and is due back in L.A. County Superior Court on Feb. 2, according to online records.

As Pamela Anderson revealed in an interview this week, she couldn't wait to get away from Seth Rogan at the Golden Globes ceremony Sunday night. The Baywatch star told Andy Cohen on his SiriusXM show that she felt yucky sitting so close to the actor and thinks he owes her an apology because he developed, produced and starred in Pam and Tommy, the Daily Mail reported.

Tall, blond, and approachable, Sandra Lee was a mainstay on the Food Network for over a decade and has released over 20 cookbooks. "Semi-Homemade with Sandra Lee" ran for 15 seasons (from 2003 to 2011), and "Sandra's Money-Saving Meals" clocked 65 episodes over the course of four years (from 2009 to 2012). After her shows ended, she took a break from TV, but a series of personal battles thrust Lee back into the spotlight and she slowly became one of those Food Network chefs that you don't see much anymore.

"Many of you know I've been in seminary for the last several years," he said, sitting with co-anchors Colleen Williams and Michael Brownlee after watching a video tribute to his time in front of the camera. "I got my master's in Christian studies, and right now I'm pursuing my doctorate, my doctorate of ministry. And so, yeah, I'll be graduating to full-time ministry beginning tomorrow."

Set inside Vault-Tec's bomb-proof vaults, Fallout Shelter drops a diverse group of contestants into an immersive, high-stakes world inspired by the games' signature dark humor, retro-futurism, and post-apocalyptic survival storytelling.

James Austin Johnson wasn't sure he was going to play Donald Trump during the lead-up to the 2024 election. He knew there would be a lot of eyeballs on those episodes; it was Saturday Night Live's 50th season, and there were plans to bring in stars to portray the key political players. So when it became clear that Johnson was being tapped for the gig, he felt the pressure.

Rue seemingly starts on the path to sobriety after years of struggling with addiction. "I don't know if life was exactly what I wished, but somehow, for the first time, I was beginning to have faith," she states in the trailer's voiceover. But her life quickly flips upside down when her former drug dealer, Laurie (Martha Kelly), informs her that she's still in debt.
