Jol was dressed a bit more for the time period than usual as he went riding with Frances and June. I’m starting to get used to his modern hairstyle, though I’m really glad he was wearing a tie. I’ve been complaining about his refusal to wear one, especially since he works (or will be working) in finance! Honestly, I’m more interested in the personal conflicts than the business details. We find out Jol has set up trust funds for his children, but he’s estranged from them. Right, and I’m sure that’s the whole story, Jol. Seriously, stop unexpectedly showing up at your ex-wife’s house – she clearly wants nothing to do with you.

Porsha is updating her public image by openly sharing her identity as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Over the years on the show, she’s changed significantly, moving from a traditional homemaker to someone who embraces a more fluid understanding of her own sexuality, even after her divorce. She’s even joked that this side of herself wasn’t much of a secret. While it’s perfectly fine that she took her time coming out, some viewers are pointing out a contrast between that and past comments she made about the husbands and partners of other cast members, which seemed to imply homophobic views.

The Japanese fashion brand SuperGroupies has released a special collection of watches based on the popular series Fate/strange Fake. The limited-edition watches are designed after the characters Saber (Richard I), Archer (Gilgamesh), and Lancer (Enkidu), and are expected to ship in December 2026. A watch inspired by the character Berserker is also being created. Fans can also purchase a backpack inspired by Archer.

Even two years after its release, Bodkin remains a popular choice on Netflix for a fast-paced and enjoyable binge. While some feel it could have been truly exceptional, this 7-part series delivers a compelling murder mystery set against the beautiful backdrop of the Irish coast. With mostly positive reviews and a 72% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, Bodkin is still a great option for a quick, immersive watch – perfect for an evening or weekend.

Several actors are poised to dominate the box office in 2026, but Tom Holland is a strong contender. He’s leading roles in both Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey, both of which could easily earn over a billion dollars. If Spider-Man also appears in Avengers: Doomsday, Holland’s chances of topping the box office increase even further.

The praise for this movie is well-deserved; it fully embraces its science-fiction roots. Andy Weir’s original novel was meticulously researched, and the film maintains that commitment to scientific accuracy – from the astrophage to the details of space travel. Importantly, the filmmakers didn’t simplify any of that for a wider audience. Rocky is fantastic, and Gosling delivers a strong performance. However, while Project Hail Mary is successful, it’s not the first, nor the best, film to combine realistic science with a compelling survival story. Many other movies have explored similar themes with more originality or boldness. Here are ten examples.

It’s been almost two decades since the last Alien vs. Predator film, but both the Alien and Predator series are experiencing a resurgence with recent, more grounded installments. Now, early signs suggest that audiences might be open to another Alien vs. Predator movie – either as a sequel or a fresh reboot of the first two films.

Richard Marin, known as Cheech, and Tommy Chong are a famous comedy duo best known for their films about marijuana culture. Another well-known comedic pair, Jay Mewes and Kevin Smith’s character Silent Bob, frequently appear together in Smith’s movies like Clerks, Dogma, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. This weekend, all four of them—Cheech, Chong, Jay, and Silent Bob—were at the Astronomicon fan convention in Michigan. Kevin Smith shared a photo of the group on Instagram, which you can see below.

Monster movies made a comeback in the 1990s, and the decade delivered some notable films. Like many horror movies from that era, these monster films were incredibly diverse – some felt like classic retreads, while others were truly innovative.

Over four seasons and 40 episodes, the show subtly became one of the most emotionally powerful dramas on TV. By the time it ended in October 2017, it had moved beyond a typical story about flawed heroes to become a moving look at what drives us, how we cope with setbacks, and the importance of human connection. Despite this, it never quite broke into the mainstream. Even now, twelve years later, many consider it AMC’s most overlooked gem.
