Minority Mindset

The action resumes immediately with Robbie cornered and Tom urging him to give up. Jayson initiates a gunfight, leading to a spectacular and visually impressive battle in the woods – a chaotic chase through valleys, streams, and tangled roots. Robbie manages to kill one of the Dark Hearts, but Kathleen, Tom’s supervisor, is wounded. Aleah lives up to her nickname, “Bullseye,” proving to be a skilled sharpshooter. Eventually, Robbie and Jayson come face-to-face. During the struggle, Robbie throws the drugs into the river, seemingly relieved to be rid of them. He furiously shouts at Jayson while nearly strangling him, only stopping when he realizes he’s been stabbed. Tom intervenes, trying to get Robbie to a hospital, but Robbie tragically dies before they can reach it. It’s a powerful and well-acted death scene, thanks to Tom Pelphrey’s performance, but it feels strange to remove such a strong actor so close to the show’s conclusion, seemingly to change the central conflict.

Elsbeth frequently sets her stories in workplaces filled with underlying conflict, and the season premiere is no exception. The victim, Scotty Bristol – a popular late-night talk show host and generally unpleasant person – is played by Stephen Colbert. Scotty is portrayed as a difficult boss: he’s rude to his employees, doesn’t prepare for interviews, and intentionally mocks the jokes his writers come up with, making sure they witness his dismissive behavior.

Following his well-received character work in *Friendship*, Robinson’s new HBO comedy, *The Chair Company*, feels like a natural progression. The show centers on Ron Trosper, a dedicated husband and father who strives to appear capable both at work and at home. Initially, Ron seems genuinely successful in this effort, enjoying respect from his colleagues and the unwavering support of his wife, Barb (Lake Bell), and children, Natalie (Sophia Lillis) and Seth (Will Price). He’s leading a major mall project in Canton, Ohio, for Fisher Robay, and things are going well. However, at the project’s kickoff event, a seemingly minor incident quickly changes everything. While sitting down, the chair Ron is using collapses, causing him to fall and become publicly humiliated – and this moment sets the entire plot of *The Chair Company* in motion.

According to James Gunn and DC Studios, the upcoming *Superman* sequel, *Man of Tomorrow* (2025), will feature a surprising team-up: Superman and Lex Luthor working together. Interestingly, many of Superman’s classic enemies – like Bizarro and Brainiac – have the potential to become heroes. They could choose to change their ways and help Superman and the Justice League instead of causing trouble for Earth.

Look, sometimes you just want a movie that *feels* good, right? These ten romantic films are exactly that – pure escapism. They’ve got gorgeous visuals, believable chemistry between the leads, and a really cozy vibe. Honestly, they’re perfect for getting you in the mood for fall and the holidays, and I found myself completely charmed. Whether they remind you of autumn days or are actually *set* during pumpkin season, they’re totally worth curling up with as we head into Christmas.

Last year, Jennie Snyder Urman’s revival of *Matlock* surprised everyone with its first episode. People expected a typical, gentle legal drama on CBS, featuring Oscar winner Kathy Bates as a charming older lawyer in the style of Andy Griffith. Instead, the show took a shocking turn. The seemingly sweet lawyer is actually a wealthy and determined woman who’s secretly investigating a prestigious New York law firm, Jacobson Moore. She’s determined to prove they were responsible for the opioid crisis that led to the death of her daughter, Ellie.

Let’s be honest, most of us have bent the rules a little – maybe we’ve switched price tags at the grocery store or kept something after getting a refund. But there’s a huge difference between that and falsely claiming a massive loss to your insurance company, especially when you’ve actually returned the items and there’s no sign of a break-in. For years, women on *Housewives* shows have been suspected of similar schemes, facing accusations and bans from stores. It’s surprising, though, that the first to actually face legal consequences are the former professor and lawyer. Are they still struggling with student loan debt?

The upcoming film is generating a lot of buzz, with both audiences and critics impressed by its bold style and talented actors. Director Jake Gyllenhaal’s unique vision, combined with Christian Bale’s immersive performance and Jessie Buckley’s powerful emotional delivery, makes *The Bride!* a highly anticipated release for 2026. The trailer has already sparked comparisons to films like *Joker: Folie à Deux* and *Lisa Frankenstein*, with many viewers highlighting its striking visuals and fresh take on the classic Frankenstein story.
