For fujoshi, the Japanese term for women who love media about romance between men, we are living through what can only be described as a second Enlightenment. There's the recent monumental success of Heated Rivalry, the Canadian hockey show that made superstars of its actors and caused author Rachel Reid's source books to fly off store shelves around the world. Other LGBTQ+ romance books have also been surging in popularity for years, assisted by steamy movie adaptations like 2023's Red, White & Royal Blue and 2024's . Hell, out gay actor Jonathan Bailey is People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive.

Already known as a naturalist, a broadcaster, a writer, a campaigner, and such a flat-out, all-encompassing gentleman that he hobnobs with gorillas, David Attenborough has added one more string to his bow: he is now a centenarian. Attenborough was born on May 8, 1926-that is to say, three and a half weeks before Marilyn Monroe. She has passed into legend, so much so that she barely seems real, and her movies are treasured as historical artifacts, whereas Attenborough, as real and as eager as a meerkat, has a new show on the BBC.

The club's owners shruggingly crush employees' dreams of upward mobility, while wealthy members engage in scams, taking advantage of others' desires for a better life.

The new Spanish language series Dear Killer Nannies manages to find a new and unexpected way into the life of an archetypal villain, focusing very little on the bloodshed that has made his life so ripe for movies and television.

The Pitt follows a melange of hospital workers—the doctors, nurses, social workers, security and administrative staff of a cash-strapped emergency room in Pittsburgh—as they deal with everything from gunshot wounds to burnout, fentanyl overdoses to dreaded note-taking, with all the emotional trauma in between.

Love Story was based on Elizabeth Beller's book Once Upon a Time, which was helpful, but in a lot of ways Black Rabbit was more 'real' than Love Story because it was entirely fictional. I come from a research background so there's always a lot of research involved, whether it's photographs or books.

a sense of what it's doing and where it's going and whisper it even a touch of commentary on the state of society today. It's almost like old American anthology days, when Murphy threw the likes of The People v OJ Simpson, Feud and The Assassination of Gianni Versace at us one after the other; leasing new lives to Sarah Paulson, Jessica Lange and assorted other glorious figures, and having us believe the good times would roll for ever.

The Cold War was largely an exercise in futility. Soviet spies surveilled American agents embedded in Russia; said American agents knew they were being stalked, recorded, and quietly threatened. Stateside, it was the same game of paranoia - and in the end, it's hard to say what actual fruit was borne of it. That irony is the one thing - maybe the only thing - that Ponies understands intimately.

But it's Ethan Hawke, who plays a writer and bookstore owner named Lee Raybon, who's the real treat of the show. Lee, so beyond category in the world of media that he calls himself a "truthstorian," is equal parts good intention and questionable judgment. He boasts a dogged commitment to the truth but often makes the wrong choices, finds himself in bad situations, and has to bluff his way out-not always successfully.

First introduced in season two of "Interview with the Vampire," the Talamasca is an organization made up of scholars and spies that watch over the supernatural.

At the Talamasca's London headquarters, Helen (Elizabeth McGovern) is sent a severed eyeball in the mail.

If you don't already know Dr. Sandra Lee, a.k.a. "Dr. Pimple Popper," you for sure know her videos-those kinda gross but oddly satisfying, up-close-and-personal clips of clients' pores as the doc extracts pimples, cysts, bumps and the epidermal like. Those videos have garnered the doc a massive online presence, with nearly 9 million YouTube subscribers and over 6.4 billion total video views, plus nearly 17 million followers over on TikTok and another five million on Instagram.

Genevieve O'Reilly's powerful speech against genocide and propaganda highlights the crucial need for truth and independence, ultimately fueling the rebellion against the Galactic Empire.

"It is going to have all of the same energy and the same love and the same fun of the original run of the series, so fans can really expect to find everything they loved about the original run plus a lot more."

The world felt so clear to me. I know [Wendy] well - I feel like I could run into her on the street in Brooklyn.

The series promises to be a "Succession-type drama between the family" set over several generations, Williams explained, comparing it to the earlier hit HBO series.
