Minority Mindset

Following Rupert Wyatt’s direction of Rise of the Planet of the Apes – which showed how a deadly virus began to decimate the human population and allow apes to rise in intelligence – Matt Reeves (known for Cloverfield and The Batman) directed both Dawn of the Planet of the Apes in 2014 and War for the Planet of the Apes in 2017. Because of Reeves’ involvement, Dawn and War became the most well-received films in the Planet of the Apes series, and they remain the most popular installments to this day.

However, I think her victory feels different from those times when the show seems to unfairly support a contestant, like with the widely criticized ‘Lexi Love Snatch Game’ placement. While some might say Darlene’s roast was so bad it was actually good, it’s clear her jokes weren’t good jokes – she succeeded despite them. What really matters is that Darlene’s performance, however she got there, was deliberate. She was fully in control and intentionally creating a specific atmosphere.

Forget struggling to enjoy healthy foods – you can’t go wrong with any of these hit TV shows! As of March 13, 2026, Flix Patrol reports these are the most popular shows worldwide. There’s a little something for everyone, from gripping crime thrillers and sweeping historical romances to laugh-out-loud comedies and the amazing medical drama everyone’s talking about. Now the only question is: which one should you start with?

I was really struck by Layla’s story. She didn’t get the contract with Ford Models, and even though they were careful not to comment on her looks, that’s the first place her mind went – worrying about her weight. It was heartbreaking to hear her then share, for the first time, that she’s been battling an eating disorder. It just shows how deeply these things can affect someone, even when others try to be sensitive.

Haley Z. Boston, the writer behind Brand New Cherry Flavor, is creating a new series called Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen. The Duffer Brothers (known for Stranger Things) are executive producers, and Weronika Tofilska, who directed Baby Reindeer, is directing. With this team, Netflix has assembled a powerful group of creators, reminiscent of the supergroup The Traveling Wilburys. Ross Duffer is taking on a key creative role similar to Roy Orbison’s in that band. Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen will debut on March 26, 2026.

When Superman first appeared in 1938’s Action Comics #1, he quickly became a popular figure, and as World War II began, he unexpectedly represented American opposition to fascism. His radio program gave him a memorable motto – “Truth, justice, and the American way” – which perfectly captured his heroic image. However, DC Comics seems to have abandoned this core principle at a time when it should be reaffirming it and explaining its meaning to today’s audiences.

Despite having ten episodes, Netflix’s Beef is ideal for a weekend binge because each episode is fairly short, running between 30 and 39 minutes. This makes it easy to watch the whole series in a few sittings—or even all at once if you’re up for it! With season 2 coming soon, now is the perfect time to watch—or re-watch—Beef on Netflix.

Taylor is extremely upset and has been frantically contacting people in the MomTok community, demanding to know why no one warned her about Dakota and Shinia. She feels deeply betrayed and, in a private interview, expressed disbelief that MomTok would side with Shinia, whom she doesn’t trust, over her. Apparently, Shinia intended to share information about Dakota with Taylor at an event tonight, but Taylor has decided not to attend, realizing she’s too upset to make good decisions right now.

Representative Mamdani released a statement criticizing the recent military action – which former President Trump has referred to as a ‘war,’ ‘incursion,’ or ‘excursion.’ This prompted a strong response from Masih Alinejad, an Iranian-born CBS News contributor who the Justice Department says has been targeted by assassins. During an interview on CBS News, Alinejad challenged Mamdani, asking why he hadn’t spoken out when assassins were sent to New York City. She contrasted his concern for his aunt, who briefly stopped using the subway due to feeling unsafe while wearing a hijab, with her own fear stemming from the assassins sent by the Islamic Republic.
