Heated Rivalry's success is helping author in her Parkinson's battle

Heated Rivalry author Rachel Reid says the raunchy TV adaptation of her hit book series success has helped her fight with Parkinson's disease. The 45-year-old novelist cited the steamy hockey romance's popularity in helping her access better care more than two years following her diagnosis. Parkinson's disease, which can be inherited, is a neurological condition caused by a reduction of dopamine in the brain, leading to a plethora of physical and psychological problems such as memory loss, violent tremors, and motor-function issues. Reid opened up about her struggle with Parkinson's while speaking to Today earlier this month, revealing that she had been diagnosed in August 2023.

Amadeus review this Mozart series is a pale, petty version of the movie it's based on

And so, my friends, to the new six-part drama Amadeus, about the life, death and music of Wolfgang A Mozart, one of the defining geniuses of the last 1,000 years of western history. Co-creators Joe Barton and Julian Farino have retained parts of Peter Shaffer's 1979 play and the 1984 film starring Tom Hulce as Mozart and F Murray Abraham as his rival composer Antonio Salieri, reworked them into lesser forms, and surrounded them with lesser flat, airless, banal scenes.

The Majority Of Bethesda Is Working On The Elder Scrolls 6, But It Could Overlap With Other Projects

"It's progressing really well," Howard told Game Informer. "The majority of the studio's on [Elder Scrolls 6]. but I'll say this: We always overlap. So, we're very used to overlapping development. And we have long pre-productions on things so that we feel good about them. And it's a process. We all wish it went a little bit faster--or a lot faster--but it's a process that we want to get right."
