It’s always a risk to create anything artistic and then let the world decide whether they love it or hate it. It may be even riskier for those who already dominate one art field. Anderson .Paak is a well-known musician, but decided to expand his abilities by writing and directing a film called K-Pops!. The
David Byrne stopped by The Late Show to perform his song “When We Are Singing” and to chat with Stephen Colbert about his most recent album Who Is the Sky?.

It’s been a chaotic, up and down start to Survivor 50. Fan response to the returning players and the actual gameplay has been incredibly positive. Ratings have been the strongest we’ve seen in years. There are so many reasons to celebrate, and yet, amidst all that excitement, there’s also been enormous fan backlash about the

Fans are gearing up to return to Hogwarts with the Potter TV show, which will be available on HBO and for those with a HBO Max subscription. Fans are gearing up
As somebody who was a kid in the 1980s, I won’t pretend I haven’t been supremely curious about the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie. I watched the original cartoon and had many of the toys. I watched the first live-action movie and convinced myself I liked it even though it was mostly terrible. When
A Dawning Ólafur Arnalds and Talos Mercury KX 10 May 2025 Missing from the valuable end-of-year lists I digest with interest is the category of best collaboration in music. Were there such a category, my enthusiastic nominee would be Ólafur Arnalds’ A Dawning (2025). Arnalds is a genre-busting composer of ambient, soundtrack, and song music,

Following in the footsteps of two all-timer Hollywood legends like Robert Mitchum and Robert De Niro would be intimidating for anyone, but taking on a role like stalker-rapist Max Cady already requires a certain amount of quasi-psycho chutzpah. And hot diggity danger, Javier Bardem is truly embodying beast mode in the first trailer for the
Sometimes Netflix’s random movie and TV show recommendations work. Because I started My Korean Boyfriend out of curiosity and my love-hate relationship with Netflix dating shows, the algorithm recommended Made in Korea. It’s an Indian comedy about a woman who dreams of moving to Korea. It’s been her dream for many years. She has romanticized
It takes Bill Callahan just a track or two on My Days of 58 to start a song with the first-person “I”. The song in question, “The Man I’m Supposed Be”, serves as a decent bellwether for the highly autobiographical material that surrounds it. Callahan, who murmured for much of the 1990s and 2000s under
You might think that Mariska Hargitay has already been pretty much everywhere in New York City after nearly three decades as the star of Law & Order: SVU, but the actress is now heading somewhere new: the Broadway stage. Yes, once Season 27 of SVU wraps in the 2026 TV schedule, Hargitay will be found
Arlo Parks’ third album, Ambiguous Desire, bears little resemblance to her previous record, My Soft Machine. My Soft Machine, though, only felt tangentially connected to Parks’ Mercury Prize-winning and Grammy-nominated debut, Collapsed in Sunbeams. Sunbeams, for its part, felt like a sad, confessional R&B album with folk elements, while Machine brought in more downtempo rock
There was a guy who lived in the apartment complex where I grew up who everyone—and by everyone, I mean the six or eight other kids I more or less ran with—said had been on Death Row, but who had been released after he’d survived the electric chair three separate times. The rumor was that
Those who watched the winners get handed out at the 94th Academy Awards in 2022 will not soon forget the sight of Will Smith storming the stage and slapping presenter Chris Rock.

Iowa Ohyung Ohyung / Trans Music Archive 6 March 2026 Composer and performer Ohyung (Lia Ouyang Rusli) takes an impressionist approach with real depth on the new experimental album Iowa.

HGTV viewers have seen lots of shifting content on the network over the past year. Summer 2025 was especially active, as at least seven shows getting canceled during that time, with even more disappointing announcements coming later.

Look, I’m a huge fan of the NWO (Nintendo World Order), and when you’re a fan of the NWO, you’re a fan FOR LIFE! So, that being the case, can I just say that I’m DEEPLY UPSET with Nintendo over the lead-up to The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which comes out April 1st? This annoys

Severance by Ling Ma A send-up and takedown of corporate drudgery, late-stage capitalism, and adulthood listlessness familiar to so many of us, Ling Ma’s Severance serves up a wry and tense satire featuring an eerily monotonous pandemic. Candace Chen, a millennial publishing drone self-sequestered in a Manhattan office tower, is so devoted to routine she
