Sterling Point, From Megan Park and the Creators of Gossip Girl , Is the Next Great Teen Drama Original
What makes a great teen drama? The kind you rewatch for years to come, where the characters feel like old friends—a world you can also live inside. For Sterling Point's Megan Park, who has both starred in a YA drama and created one in this new Prime Video series, it’s about that combination of light and dark, nostalgia and relatability. “[When we were making Sterling Point] I wasn't necessarily thinking about, Oh, I love Dawson's Creek.

Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘You Seem Pretty Sad’ Is a Great Album, If You Don’t Look Too Hard at the Lyrics Original
Let’s start with a basic, fundamental truth: The new Olivia Rodrigo album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love, is good, potentially even great in the right light. I listened to it while walking around my neighborhood, swaying on the subway, driving to the beach on a perfect 80-degree Saturday.

Phoebe Bridgers at Madison Square Garden: Maybe All Concerts Should Ban Phones Original
The scale of the silence during Phoebe Bridgers’s Madison Square Garden pop-up show is hard to imagine if you weren’t there. When it began around 9 p.m., just after Bridgers settled into a 1970s-style couch beside frequent collaborator Christian Lee Hutson, it felt like going underwater. I kept trying to catch my breath at how completely still everyone was, hanging on every word of her high, clear voice. The silence rang in my ears on the train ride home.
