Laurel Park is an idyllic, tucked-away pocket of West Hollywood, the front portion of a historic neighborhood home that was turned into public space in 2011. The colonial mansion was purchased in 1924 by pioneering cinema exhibitor Adolph Linick, a relic of the city’s legacy, but on a sticky early December afternoon,…

Not that this will make up for CMT canceling Nashville—NO I AM NOT OVER IT I DO NOT CARE IF IT WENT DOWNHILL AFTER THE FIRST SEASON—but the channel says they’ll commit to playing an equal ratio of videos by men and women artists. I mean.......it is 2020, so no awards from me here, but country music has a serious…

Nothing is sacred anymore. Once, we could fondly joke about the “cat people” or “horse girls” or “the kid with the overstuffed backpack who would Naruto-run to Algebra class.” “Once” is the operative word here, because like I said, nothing is sacred anymore! Mostly because the prime defiler of the cultural…

Documentaries chronicling the lives of students as they prepare for momentous events may well be the trend of this burgeoning decade, and if that’s the case, I’m thrilled about it. It took me exactly 1.5 days to plow through the entirety of Cheer, but now that it’s done, I find myself needing another fix. This trailer…

Hillary Clinton, the first woman to ever win the popular vote in a U.S. presidential election, is back for 2020, but only in documentary form.

I put “BABY” in caps, because it’s a big baby. (And as a Daily Mail hat tip, naturally.) Imagine: “Congrats! It’s a...lipoma.” Another successful Pimple Popper delivery.

After a popular and much-discussed first season, it appears as though the HBO series Watchmen will not be returning for a second season, after creator Damon Lindelof told USA Today that he has “no interest in a second season.”

Mariah Carey is a songwriter. This has, since the promotion of her 1990 self-titled debut album, been a talking point of hers. Yet no matter how often she says it, people still don’t realize or believe that she writes her own songs, or so she claims.

Most people remember John Singleton from his 1991 film Boyz n the Hood, an unforgettably striking debut from a filmmaker who knew how to straddle empathy and tension. The film became both a foundation and defining facet of Singleton’s legacy almost to the exclusion of all else, doing what Illmatic did for Nas’s…

Seems like a good time to revisit Jezebel’s most recent Would U poll, in which, as of now, over 2/3 of respondents voted that they would have sex with Larry David in some form (be it in his current corporeal form, or that which he took in 2002). That’s right. Good job. And now the majority of us have a high-profile…

The Queen of Hades’ return is nigh. Part 3 of Netflix’s delightful, if not totally feminist, supernatural series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina drops next week. In the trailer for the forthcoming season, Sabrina Spellman (played by a witchy Kiernan Shipka) is stuck between a rock and a hell place. She’s tasked with…

On Thursday The Great British Bake Off, my favorite television show to learn about bizarre British pastries (bring it on, “picnic basket pie”), announced that one of the show’s hosts Sandi Toksvig was leaving the show. If only it could have been Paul Hollywood!

Like anyone else wise enough to disengage from The Discourse, I waited a few weeks before watching Netflix’s social media-reality TV show experiment, The Circle. Though its description as Big Brother meets Catfish was enough to entice, my assumption was that only the worst, most boring people on the planet would…

Netflix’s animated show Bojack Horseman—a charming comedy that is equal parts devastating and too close to reality for comfort—is coming to an end. The second half of season six, the program’s final bow, will hit the streaming service at the end of the month. Netflix released the trailer Wednesday morning, and it…

Whitney Houston, the Notorious B.I.G., Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, T. Rex, and the Doobie Brothers will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at a ceremony set to take place May 2, 2020, at Public Auditorium in Cleveland. While fans of these veteran acts will view the news of the hall’s 35th annual round…

Suzanne Somers’s husband of over 40 years, 83-year-old Alan Hamel, is very horny. Oh my god. Oh my god. He’s so horny it’s just unbelievable. I do not have firsthand evidence of this horniness, but on Monday’s Watch What Happens Live, Somers assured the audience it is indeed true, using those very words. In response…

I only give props where props are due and they are so completely warranted here: the producers on this season of The Bachelor are absolutely killing it. Pilot Peter Weber, a dweeb-y boring man known only for his profession and fucking a bunch of times in a windmill, is currently on the hunt for love. In the premiere…

I’m not going to pretend to have any comic book nerd-grade knowledge about Marvel’s forthcoming Black Widow, but that isn’t going to stop me from having the following several opinions: Scarlett Johansson—good. Rachel Weisz—good. Florence Pugh—good. Florence Pugh’s Russian accent, though? I’m not so sure.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: award show season. On Monday morning, actors John Cho and Issa Rae announced the nominees for the upcoming 92nd Academy Awards. As Rae said after reading the Best Director category, “Congratulations to those men.”
