The second season of *Ahsoka* is predicted to be a significant undertaking, potentially exceeding the cost of its first season on Disney+. While many anticipated a budget increase due to the ambitious, dual-world storyline, the show’s star recently shared details about the actual production budget.
“Doll Day Afternoon” stands out as a unique episode of Elsbeth, as she doesn’t partner with a typical NYPD officer or detective. The case itself involves a death that’s more of a tragic accident than a calculated murder, which is a departure from the show’s usual storylines. While the killers on Elsbeth often have some redeeming qualities, Nolan Hurst (David Cross) is particularly sympathetic. He didn’t plan to kill toy store manager Patrick Palmer (Drew Seltzer); it was a desperate act, not revenge.
This week’s expiry performance is marginally grander than last week’s forgettable matinee, though spot markets-currently engaged in their own tragicomic descent-are unlikely to notice. Meanwhile, the U.S. government, ever the theatrical troupe, remains shuttered, and trade tariffs loom like a poorly rehearsed deus ex machina. Yet, the grand narrative of quantitative tightening’s demise and liquidity’s triumphant return whispers sweet bullish nothings to crypto’s eager ears.
Fans have been eager to see Daryl and Rick back together, but many also want Morgan to reconnect with his former friends after a long separation. However, Morgan is a controversial character – some viewers strongly dislike him and consider him one of the weakest in the series. While there are understandable reasons why some fans don’t enjoy his story, it’s unfair to say his character was poorly written or damaged the show.
Amazing Spider-Man #14 features writing by Joe Kelly, with art from Ed McGuinness and Todd Nauck. Mark Farmer and Wade Von Grawbadger provided the inks, with some inking also done by the artists themselves. Marcio Menyz and Erick Arciniega handled the coloring, and Joe Caramagna, who has been a consistent part of the Spider-Man comics for years, did the lettering. The story focuses on a conflict between the two characters currently taking on the roles of Spider-Man and Peter Parker.
I always find it amusing when legal jargon I’ve learned over the years appears in TV shows. Words like “collateral estoppel” – it’s a beautiful-sounding phrase, even if it’s confusing to most people. But for those in the know, it’s a powerful tool. It’s phrases like these that help me understand why lawyers are so passionate about their profession; they essentially get to use language as a kind of magic.
Julia is standing next to her, wearing a dress that matches in both color and fabric. It’s an odd thought – can a dress *have* a consistency? – but this one definitely did. A small scarf around her neck adds a touch of flair, making her look like an opera singer – which she isn’t, though she plays one on television. Larsa is definitely being Larsa, in a tight-fitting, pastel dress. It feels a bit young for her, and perhaps a little cheap, and it oddly makes her face look fuller than usual. She’s beautiful, but this outfit doesn’t quite work for me. Alexia, on the other hand, looks amazing in yellow – a great color, a flattering fit, and a perfect dress. Meanwhile, Todd is probably at home feeling jealous and reaching for lotion and tissues.
During a recent interview about her upcoming film, *Queens of the Dead* (releasing later this month), actress O’Brian – who is hoping to work with Dave Bautista – revealed she wasn’t involved in *The Mandalorian & Grogu*. When asked by Polygon if she’d been contacted about returning as Elia Kane, she responded:
After the first season of *Matlock* revealed that Julian had concealed the Wellbrexa document Matty was seeking, the storyline became even more complex. Now, in the fall of 2025, Olympia’s choice to protect the father of her children has shifted the focus of the investigation to Senior. Only two episodes into Season 2, Matty and Olympia have already repeatedly changed their minds about whether they’ll cooperate with each other.
Often overlooked, the 1997 film *The Night Flier* is based on a Stephen King short story originally published in 1988 and later included in his 1993 collection, *Nightmares and Dreamscapes*. It was one of only two films directed by Mark Pavia, and starred Miguel Ferrer, known for *Twin Peaks*. While it only received a 33% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, many consider it a more faithful adaptation of the story than any other.
