Minority Mindset

Stephen Colbert has several years remaining on The Late Show, but landing an interview with the Pope – even a hypothetical Pope Leo XIV – would require significant coordination, given how busy the Pope likely is. He’s been wanting to interview the head of the Catholic Church for a while now. In a recent interview with GQ, he discussed people he’d like to interview but hasn’t yet had the opportunity, and the Pope was among them.

The CW has announced its midseason premiere dates, but unfortunately, “All American” isn’t scheduled to return this winter. While several other shows are coming soon, including season 3 of “Wild Cards,” game shows “Scrabble” and “Trivial Pursuit,” and “Police 24/7,” “All American” wasn’t included in the list of returning programs.

It seems puzzling that Kay would return to Michael after he married someone else while still with her, and equally strange that Michael went back to Kay after his first wife, Apollonia, died. While some believe they reunited and married out of convenience – Michael wanting children and Kay needing financial support – the true reason is actually quite straightforward, and can be found in two scenes that were cut from the original movie.

The world of Yellowstone is expanding with shows like The Dutton Ranch, which follows Beth and Rip, and a new series starring Michelle Pfeiffer called The Madison. But Y: Marshals is gaining a lot of traction, which gives it an advantage as Yellowstone prepares to premiere on a major television network – a first for the franchise.

The new movie, The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants, comes out on Christmas, but we got to hear Ice Spice’s song for it a month early! Both the movie and the song are about SpongeBob trying to prove he’s capable and brave – strong enough for a huge roller coaster or a deep-sea adventure. Often, when popular artists create songs for kids’ movies, the results feel a little flat, like they’re just going through the motions. But Ice Spice’s gentle delivery actually fits perfectly with the song’s theme, “Big Guy.” She doesn’t try to overdo it or act like she’s the star; she simply repeats that SpongeBob is, in fact, a big guy who wears pants, and that’s that!

The creator shared a photo on Instagram of a t-shirt they received as a crew member of the movie. The shirt features an older design of one of the characters. They explained they were happy to have been involved, even though they joined the production near the end. The caption read, “My crew t-shirt just arrived. Only joined at the end of the production, but still happy I was a part of it.”

With Zack Snyder actively releasing films on Netflix, many fans hoped the streaming service would be the place to see his planned sequels to Justice League and any other future movies in his shared universe. The problem is, Netflix doesn’t own the rights to the DC characters. This could change if Netflix were to buy Warner Bros. Discovery, but that possibility has become increasingly difficult.
