David Cassidy: The Tragic Final Words of the Teen Idol, "Partridge Family," TV and Music Sensation
He was one of the most popular teen idols in the history of entertainment. As the star of the 1970s hit TV series, The Partridge Family, he rocketed to fame and then died too young.
The Secret Meanness in TV’s Nicest Show
There are a lot of jerks in All Creatures Great and Small. There are some world-class manipulators, too, and more than a few fussbudgets. These rabble rousers pop up at least once an episode, hurling their insults and raising their voices, and they force the nicer characters to respond. So even though it deserves its reputation for incredible kindness, it’s not entirely accurate to characterize the series as some kind of weighted blanket, wrapping us in the warmth of pastoral beauty and small-town geniality. In fact, the meanness keeps the show chugging along.

The Circle Actually Made Us Like Big Brother Brett
Note: Spoilers ahead, including who won The Circle Season 5. In a broadly likable season of The Circle, it's more than a little surprising that one of the standout cast members was a former Big Brother who'd built his brand by being an intentional jerk. But things operate differently in that Circle high-rise. The 5th season of the U.S. adaptation concluded on January 18, with the Bronx's Sam Carmona voted the winner by her peers. Sam's emotional, effusive response and her pledge to provide for her mom and grandma back home ended the season with a high note. But reflecting on Season 5 as a whole, we have no choice but to shout out a player who helped make it as fun and strategically bold as it could be: Vegas himbo Brett.
Dear Edward Trailer Promises Tears, Catharsis, and a Friday Night Lights Reunion
In just over two minutes, the trailer for the upcoming Apple TV+ series Dear Edward makes you one solemn promise: it's going to make you cry. Apple debuted a handful of trailers at its presentation for the Television Critics Association on Wednesday, but Dear Edward definitely packed the biggest emotional wallop. Based on Ann Napolitano's best-selling novel, Dear Edward comes to Apple from Jason Katims, who previously cracked the code on delivering sentimental-yet-substantive TV with Friday Night Lights and Parenthood. And when it came to casting the show, it seems he didn't fool around, choosing to reunite with FNL star Connie Britton.
Liev Schreiber and Bel Powley Preview Holocaust Drama A Small Light in First Featurette
Many know the story of Anne Frank, but few know the story of Miep Gies, the woman who helped hide the Franks and later found Anne's diary, preserving it so that it could be shared with the world. This spring, Disney+ and National Geographic will finally offer a window into Gies' heroism in A Small Light, an eight-episode limited series starring Bel Powley (The Morning Show) as Gies and Liev Schreiber (Ray Donovan) as Otto Frank, Anne's father.

Reality TV is Better With Below Deck's Kate Chastain Back on Our Screens
Light spoilers ahead for The Traitors on Peacock. It’s been nearly three years since Kate Chastain, Below Deck’s longtime chief stewardess, signed off the Bravo franchise, but she finally returns to television in a regular capacity in The Traitors — and how sweet a homecoming it is. As fans have come to expect from the reality star, Kate is fully uncensored in Peacock’s competition series, turning her nose up at the show’s challenges and delivering savage one-liners about the other contestants’s perceived weaknesses. But even if she quickly becomes the season’s villain, a role she embraces, it’s a gift to have Kate and her self-obsessed, give-no-f*cks energy back on our screens.
Yellowjackets Season 2 Teaser Promises More Kidnappings, Cults, Death
It's been a long, snowy hiatus for the characters on Yellowjackets, stuck in the frigid and terrifying confines of their memories of being stranded in the wilderness after a plane crash. Something happened in those woods, and the Season 2 teaser that was just released promises we're going to get closer to finding out the whole story of what that was.
Hunters Masterfully Mixes Espionage and Tragedy in Its Final Season
As a young boy, David Weil grew up listening to his grandmother’s stories about surviving the Holocaust. Inspired by what he heard, he went on to become a scholar on the topic, wondering how to contend with his family’s painful past while honoring their legacy. Those seeds led to the creation of the Prime Video series Hunters, which follows a diverse group of Nazi hunters in the 1970s who track down former Nazi officials and S.S. soldiers living in the U.S.

Hulu and Adult Swim Cut Ties With Justin Roiland After Domestic Abuse Charges
Adult Swim has cut ties with Rick and Morty co-creator just over a week after allegations of domestic abuse surfaced, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

AMC Lays Out the Next Phase of The Walking Dead Universe
The Walking Dead may have ended its 11-season run in November, but AMC's flagship franchise is still alive and kicking.

From Mandalore to the Grishaverse: Our Guide to the Best Genre TV in 2023
While 2022 was a banner year for prestige TV, genre releases may reign supreme in 2023. Sparking off the year is HBO's highly-anticipated video game adaptation of The Last of Us, which follows two survivors — played by Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey — of a zombie apocalypse. There are also new seasons of fan-favorite shows to look forward to, as well as the final chapter of M. Night Shyamalan's eerie horror series Servant on Apple TV+.
Tattoos on TV: A Force for Evil Through the Years
Tattoos are always metaphors. When something is permanently inscribed on the body, it tells a story, and it invites anyone who looks to interpret that story for themselves. That’s why ink can be so powerful: It suggests who we are beneath our skin. No wonder horror TV shows have...
RuPaul Is Coming for Steve Harvey’s Game Show Host Crown
RuPaul doesn’t make Lingo obscene or anything, but he makes it just dirty enough. Hosting CBS’s reboot of the classic game show, he mostly guides contestants through the competition, cheering them on as they decode words for increasing amounts of cash. But in between the nuts-and-bolts portions of the job, he injects sly jokes about sex and religion and a big tub of plastic balls that’s rolled on stage in the second round. That’s where the show gets its personality. Anyone can encourage two roommates from Chicago to realize they’re two vowels away from spelling “trigonometry.” It takes a special kind of TV star to make such a simple game feel edgy.
Koala Man Cast: Meet the Voice Actors in Hulu's Adult Animated Comedy
Some of the brightest minds in animation join forces with A-list stars in Hulu’s new comedy series Koala Man. Created by Michael Cusack, who also voices the titular hero, Koala Man follows a middle-aged dad who adopts a new identity and sets out to protect his hometown of Dapto from threats big and small, from supernatural creatures to neighbors who forget trash day.
Netflix Finally Renews Wednesday for Season 2
The only question about Wednesday getting a second season was what was taking Netflix so long to announce it. After debuting in November to huge viewership — according to Netflix, the show has crossed the billion-hours viewed mark and ranks as the #2 most watched U.S. show on the platform ever, after Season 4 of Stranger Things — the Addams Family reimagining was a virtual lock to return. That announcement is now official, coming via a video where star Jenna Ortega, in character as the dark and dour title character, thanks the viewers for the exquisite torture of all this attention.
