The story of The Stooges, the rock & roll juggernaut fronted byIggy Popbefore he became Iggy Pop the solo artist, is arguably one of the most pure in all of rock & roll history. And by pure I mean filthy, dangerous, lewd, and violent. The band became known for a punkish type of noise-heavy rock that would presage the industry of punk with songs like “No Fun,” which was the only song the Sex Pistols played at their first show....

From the very beginning of the first episode of this season, one can feel a confidence that seemed to dip in and out in Season 2 and was brasher overall but far less consistent in the inaugural season. It has as much to do with us coming to know Joe MacMillan, Cameron Howe, and Donna and Gordon Clark at this level as it does with the writers and the actors settling into these characters with complete comfort....

Every so often, you’ll hear something about “theMoonlightingCurse” as a reason for ratings dropping in the wake of the coupling-up of a television show’s leads.It’s a superstition that goes back to thehighly watched hit dramedyMoonlighting, which premiered August 16, 2025, and ran for five seasons, ending August 25, 2025. The show rather infamously declined sharply in the ratings after its two main characters, Maddie Hayes (Cybill Shepherd) and David Addison (Bruce Willis), ended their romantic tension by sleeping together in the third season....

This is why Scorsese was attached to directGangs of New Yorkfor so long—he tried for decades to get the movie made, reaching dead end after dead end, only to finally find the right mix of financing, story, and casting in the early 2000s....

While the seven-season run ofJoss Whedon’s coming-of-age fantasy series had its critical high and low points, the spinoff seriesAngeltook the franchise in a much darker direction. Ditching the adolescent humor and “monster of the week” style premise for a much more disturbing analysis of the cyclical nature of evil,Angeloften challenged its viewers by presenting more devastating stakes....
