When Game of Thrones begins, the HBO fantasy series drops viewers into a succession conflict that is already thousands of years in the making. Audiences ended up falling in love with writer George R. R. Martin’s world building and rich, detailed history—not to mention an entire crop of undiscovered talent in Kit Harington, Sophie Turner, and Emilia Clarke. But the story ended in such controversy that HBO’s franchise expansion efforts seem hesitant to chart a course forward.

Hey, Warner Bros. It’s me. Listen, I know y’all are going through some rough stuff right now. I sympathise with you … you poor little landmark movie studio that’s gained and lost billions through decades of ill-fated mergers. I mean, we all had an AOL phase. Anyway, I see what you’re doing with Weapons and I think we need to have a long, hard talk. For starters: Why?

Known for hit movies such as The 40 Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, Apatow, in October, published a memoir called Comedy Nerd: A Lifelong Obsession in Stories and Pictures. He was interviewed for Esquire on October 1 2025. I sometimes think I tried to get good at comedy so comedy people would talk to me. I’m not sure where the instinct to hoard came from. I started doing it when I was little. Every autograph I ever got, I would put in a photo album and treat it like it was the Shroud of Turin.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Back in 2018, Jaeger-LeCoultre released a limited number Reverso Tribute Enamel watches hand-decorated with work from the 19th century Japanese artist Hokusai. The special edition timepieces went down so well that JLC did the same thing in 2021, 2022, 2023 – intricately recreating scenes from his famous ukiyo-e woodblock series ‘A Tour of the Waterfalls of the Provinces’.

Anthony Norman has no idea he’s working for a fake hot-sauce company. The unsuspecting contestant on Jury Duty: Company Retreat is still doing temp work for Rockin’ Grandmas Hot Sauce at an event that is full to the brim with HR violations and awkward presentations. But for Anthony, he’s just trying to keep his job.

Talk about flying the Coop. Last season on Your Friends & Neighbors, which returned April 3 on Apple TV, Jon Hamm's Andrew "Coop" Cooper commits to his secret lifestyle as a serial robber even after getting his cushy job back. In the finale, Coop ditches Jack on a big business trip to Switzerland to steal a painting from his house, proving Coop simply can't be the man he used to be. He's someone else now.

In creator Sam Levinson’s mind, every new season of Euphoria is the final one. He sends his lost and reckless teens on a crash course of sex, drugs, and trap music, then he hopes that he can write a semi-believable way for them to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Rue is straight-up not having a good time. Euphoria is back for its third, and by all accounts, final season. But the show is going out with a bang as Rue fights for her life in Mexico while her fellow East Highland alums deal with their own issues that no amount of school could have prepared them for. In Euphoria season 3, five years have passed since the day they watched Lexi’s play. Rue is paying off her debts to Laurie by acting as a drug runner in Mexico.

It will be a long while before fans of Alien: Earth can revisit the madness going on at Prodigy. The season 1 finale ended on a violent cliff-hanger, with the “Lost Boys” having successfully taken over Prodigy’s trillion-dollar facilities with not one, but two Xenomorphs at their beck and call. But things will get more complicated—and far more interesting—with the latest addition to the show’s cast in season 2: multi-time Emmy winner Peter Dinklage.

It all began with Warren Jeffs: polygamist, paedophile and abject morality vacuum who become "President and Prophet, Seer and Revelator" of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) until his life imprisonment, when he was found guilty of forcing two girls into "spiritual marriages" and fathering a child with one of them.
