Michael Jackson’s Youngest Child No Longer Goes by Blanket
“King of Pop” Michael Jackson’s family has been all over the news lately. The late pop star’s ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley passed away on Jan. 12. His daughter, Paris Jackson, attended the Los Angeles premiere of the documentary Pamela, a love story on Monday, Jan. 30. And that same day, Michael’s son Prince Jackson congratulated cousin Jaafar Jackson on his role as the “Thriller” singer in the upcoming biopic Michael. But what about Michael’s other son? Where is Blanket Jackson now?

The Squid Game Reality Show Is Already Proving It Doesn't Get the Point
When the Korean drama Squid Game hit Netflix in September 2021, it was an instant success. Within the first four weeks, the series garnered 1.65 billion hours of streaming, easily taking the title of most-watched Netflix series, a title it still holds onto today. So it wasn’t completely shocking when Netflix not only renewed the series for another season but also in June 2022 announced a competition reality show inspired by the series called Squid Game: The Challenge. What didn’t quite add up, however, was whether or not Netflix understood the message of the original show, which criticizes capitalistic and classist societies that value wealth over humanity. And after medics had to be called for some contestants on day one of filming, it seems obvious that they don’t.
Anna 'Delvey' Sorokin Cons Her Way Into a New TV Show
Not many people can land a TV deal while on house arrest, but famed con artist Anna Sorokin (aka Anna Delvey) has proven that if anyone can do it, she can. Variety reports that a new unscripted series starring Sorokin called Delvey’s Dinner Club is currently in the works. The project comes courtesy of Butternut, former Food Network president Courtney White’s lifestyle and entertainment media company. In a statement Sorokin said, “I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with Wheelhouse and Butternut to bring my vision to a wider audience and share a glimpse of the real Anna Delvey.”
Party Down Sticks to Its Roots in New Season 3 Trailer
The long-awaited return of Party Down is upon us. On February 24, the comedy will be back on Starz after a 13-year hiatus, but what exactly brings these characters together after all this time has been unclear. Well, a new trailer shows us that not much has changed, and almost everyone is donning that iconic pink bowtie once again.
Natasha Lyonne's Voice and Rian Johnson's Dialogue Are a Perfect Match on Poker Face
It's nearly 10 minutes into the first episode of Poker Face, the clever and crackling new mystery series, before we see the show's star, Natasha Lyonne. By the time we meet her character, Charlie Cale, we've seen the bad guy, a murder has already been committed, and we know who did it. Every episode in this Peacock series is structured this way; the real suspense lies in Charlie's arrival. How will she find herself mixed up in this particular case? What's her angle going to be to nail the criminals? Charlie isn't a cop or a private eye; she's a woman on the run from a mobster, who has a habit of forging connections with doomed people and an uncanny ability to tell when someone is lying. That's the entire premise of Poker Face, and it works incredibly well on its own Columbo-esque charms.
Despite the Trailer, The Power Isn’t a Teen Girl Superhero Party
It’s all fun and games until somebody uses their superpowers to start a violent revolution. The trailer for Prime Video’s The Power goes hard on the show's high-concept premise, about all the teenage girls in the world simultaneously developing the ability to conduct electricity through their hands. Playing...
HBO Renews The Last of Us for Season 2
It didn't take long for HBO to give fans of The Last of Us what they want — the apocalyptic drama is officially getting a second season. This comes as no surprise after HBO announced that The Last of Us is the network's second-largest debut after House of the Dragon, with the first episode drawing more than 22 million views in the U.S. alone. Still, the renewal comes early in the season, just before the third episode airs Sunday, January 29.
There Will Never Be Another Paul T. Goldman
“I’m not like other people,” Paul T. Goldman says in the final episode of the Peacock series of the same name. And he’s absolutely right. In a time where originality is harder and harder to come by, everything about Goldman, from the way he purses his lips to his dogged determination to the supposed life he’s led up until now, is unlike anyone else. That’s part of what makes director Jason Woliner’s experimental hybrid docuseries, Paul T. Goldman, so compelling. It’s also what makes the show impossible to replicate.
The Watchful Eye's Mariel Molino Talks Finding a 'Challenging Rival' in Kelly Bishop
Series star Molino and showrunner Emily Fox tease what's to come for Freeform's new mystery. Editor’s Note: This interview contains spoilers for the first two episodes of The Watchful Eye, “Hen in the Fox House” and “Hide and Seek.”. After making her U.S. television debut in...
Teen Wolf: The Movie Brings (Most of) the Pack Back Together
In a world of expanded universes, prequels, and spinoffs to even the most middling of genre properties, it's charmingly quaint that Teen Wolf has returned simply as a continuation made-for-TV-movie. The MTV teen drama (which was itself an in-name-only adaptation for the Michael J. Fox '80s comedy) ran for six seasons, from 2011 to 2017, and concluded without any major cliffhangers or unanswered questions. There was no real pressing need for a Teen Wolf movie beyond creator Jeff Davis and (most of) the stars of the show wanting to get the band back together again, and sometimes that's good enough. While Teen Wolf: The Movie offers plenty to quibble about — including two original cast members who are probably too conspicuous in their absence — it also settles pretty quickly into classic Teen Wolf. Of course, classic Teen Wolf tended to really load up on plot and mythology, and considering the nearly six-year absence, it's no surprise that a lot of what goes down in the movie requires a bit of unpacking.
Paramount+ Goes Behind the Music In a Surprisingly Dark Soft Rock Doc
The next time you’re at a drugstore, pay attention to the music being piped through the aisles. Those pleasant background tunes may not sound menacing, but sometimes, they’ve got histories that would make Ozzy Osbourne blush. That’s one of the fascinating revelations in Sometimes When We Touch, Paramount+’s new docuseries about the rise, fall, and rebirth of soft rock.
Succession Returns This March for Season 4
The Roys are back. HBO announced Season 4 of Succession will debut on Sunday, March 26 at 9:00 PM ET on HBO and HBO Max. The new season will pick up in the midst of Season 3's drama with the sale of Waystar Royco to Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgård) on the horizon and familial divide among the Roys growing wider and wider.
Freeform's The Watchful Eye Is an Addictive "Eat the Rich" Tale
Freeform thriller The Watchful Eye may look like a spiritual successor to Cruel Summer, the anthology that became an instant hit when it debuted in 2021, but viewers would be wise to resist comparing the two. While Cruel Summer’s first season examined grooming and the villainization of women by 1990s media culture, The Watchful Eye layers a Hitchcockian premise with the “eat the rich” sentiment that has taken hold of contemporary pop culture. The result is a young adult drama that’s both compulsively watchable and socially aware, a rare combination in the genre.
