Himesh Patel will be partnering up with fellow Station Eleven alum Danielle Deadwyler in the pilot episode of the long-gestating show. According to the logline, Patel and Deadwyler will star as 'highly decorated but vastly different FBI agents' who 'form an unlikely bond when they are assigned to a long-shuttered division devoted to cases involving unexplained phenomena.'

The guided one-mile journey takes participants past buildings steeped in decades of dramatic events and reported hauntings while at the same dropping tons of fascinating history of San Jose. The experience began under the prominent arch at Paseo de San Carlos and wound through areas tied to everything from Wild West saloons and brothels to brewery tragedies to sorrows at San Jose State University.

Since its 1996 debut, Access Hollywood has aired nearly 12,000 episodes. Yet its most infamous segment was one that never made it to broadcast: in October 2016, weeks before the presidential election, The Washington Post obtained footage of then-candidate Donald Trump making lewd comments about women to Access Hollywood host Billy Bush.

We had an executive on our show who was not only not a fan of the original, but was proud to constantly remind us that he had never seen the entirety of the series and how it wasn't for him...So that tells you the uphill battle that we had been fighting since day one, when your executive is literally proud to tell you that he didn't watch it.

Los Angeles is home to more than a dozen one-of-a-kind cinemas that operate on their own terms. Some of these theaters have been around for 100 years, and in classic LA fashion some of them are owned by living LA legends-think Quentin Tarantino and Kyle Ng. Kristen Stewart recently announced she's also jumping into the mix with her purchase of Los Angeles's Highland Theatre.

In a full house at the 1,025-seat Toni Rembe Theater, there was an eruption of gasps and shrieks. The grown man to my right reflexively gripped the arm of my seat, sheepishly muttering an apology. In a distant aisle, I spotted one person get up and run out of the theater, their friend trailing closely behind.

The house stands above a steep slope, mounted on a single concrete column, which appears to be all that keeps it from soaring away. To those inside, the height, panoramic view and absence of any visible means of support give the impression of being in a penthouse floating in the sky or on the command deck of a flying saucer swooping down to strafe North Hollywood with laser cannon.

Built in 1922, the 4,300-square-foot home has a master suite, two family suites, a guest suite, maid's quarters, an office, butler's pantry, a breakfast room opening to a patio, and a garden with a pool and spa. The house also has a sweeping staircase and two fireplaces, one in the den/family room, which opens to the garden.

It was the image that launched a cultural icon. In 1967, in the Northern California woods, a 7-foot-tall, ape-like creature covered in black fur and walking upright was captured on camera, at one point turning around to look straight down the lens. The image is endlessly copied in popular culture-it's even become an emoji. But what was it? A hoax? A bear? Or a real-life example of a mysterious species called the Bigfoot?

It started as a sworn secret between eight New England artists. In 2003, Michael Townsend and seven friends moved into the Providence Place Mall. They'd discovered an empty 750 square-foot loft space. They hauled up furniture - a couch, a PlayStation, TV, waffle-maker. Hauled up two tons of cinder blocks for an apartment wall. In 2007, mall security discovered the apartment. Townsend was arrested and banned from the mall. He named no names.

A passerby discovers it first - and lets out a piercing call. Within seconds, everyone in earshot rushes to the scene. It's mayhem... or so it seems. Crows are intelligent, and super chatty. They watch out for one another within tight-knit groups. As adults it's pretty rare for crows to be killed. So when one dies the others notice. Are they just scared? Or is something deeper going on.

We bought the property in 1974 from the Dudley Murphy estate. In 1979, we sold 10 condos designed (and built in 1939 for Murphy as motel units) by famed architect Richard Neutra. The remaining two lots, which have a total of 83 feet of beach frontage, represent what Stern called the first Escondido Beach Road home sites available to the public in more than 20 years.

Hollywood is in trouble. The streaming boom that fueled a ton of production in the last decade-plus is gone, and lots of the remaining work is going overseas. No one really knows how AI will affect the movie and TV business, but there's lots of fear it won't be good. And barring something truly surprising, Warner Bros., one of Hollywood's most important movie and TV studios, is going to get swallowed up in the next year or so, which will mean even more consolidation.

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

Through throwback posts, people have been traveling back to the year when dog and flower crown Snapchat filters, Instagram eyebrows, the mannequin challenge and the Chainsmokers were everywhere. But why, you may ask? On social media, 2016 is remembered as the last carefree era, a time when people posted whatever they wanted without overthinking it, when folks actually danced at parties instead of pointing their phones at the DJ booth to "capture content."

I try to be a sophisticated TV viewer. I watch as many miniseries as I can, keep up to date with the latest in Prestige TV, and make sure I don't miss out on any sleeper hits. However, I'm also self-actualized enough to admit that I love my fair share of slop. I religiously watch RuPaul's Drag Race, 90 Day Fiancé, and whatever weird reality craze has grasped pop culture.

Though Tattle TV - a UK-based streaming platform created by filmmakers Philip McGoldrick and Marina Elderton - features a reality dating series about dog-owners and a modern drama about a female MMA fighter, the company's latest debut is a vertically-oriented edit of Alfred Hitchcock's silent film The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog. Similar to other microdrama apps, Tattle TV splits all of its content into short segments that can be purchased individually using an in-app currency (Tattle Coins).

Disneyland's Haunted Mansion will soon serve as an eerie new wedding venue for brooding brides looking for a morbid place dripping with tales of mourning, dread and murder to exchange their wedding vows and begin their happily ever after. Disneyland will begin offering weddings in July for the first time in front of the Haunted Mansion starting at $25,000 to $40,000, according to the official Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings and Honeymoons website.

What do you get when you cross an all-women dance troupe with a rebellion against Catholicism and erotic '90s thrillers? Something supremely queer, I hope. In the words of Ayo Edebri: I'm simply too seated. This is The Body, a new Netflix psychodrama from queer writer-director and Blame actress Quinn Shephard, starring none other than The Traitors ' sapphic supreme, Gabby Windey (plus a host of other very talented stars) Announced back in October, the eight-part show is set to further the fascination with "raunchy" coming-of-age, sports-ish series when it's released later this year, and with a wink-wink-nudge-nudge approach to religion, too.

Charlie Brooker's dystopian anthology series Black Mirror has been making us face the dark side of technology for 15 years now. In 2011, that meant live TV ransoms and capitalist reality shows. But last year, in Season 7, we saw memories brought to life, emotions run on subscription models, and the Hollywood remake machine going very literal. In the age of AI popping up everywhere, Black Mirror isn't going to stop reflecting real life any time soon - but what could possibly be next?

When Netflix aired live sporting events over the 2025 holidays, one teaser kept playing over and over during the ad breaks: a mysterious short sequence following a young woman as she encountered strange phenomena that all tied into major Netflix shows like Avatar: The Last Airbender, , and Stranger Things. It ended with a tease of a big announcement on January 7th. Well, it's now January 7th, and the announcement is here.
