Episode 8 finally answers one of The Shards’ oldest Robert Mallory mysteries. Bret was correct when he insisted that he had seen Robert at a screening of The Shining in May 1980. Robert lied because he was not at the theater alone. He was there with Katherine Latchford, the girl who would become the Trawler’s…
The Shards Episode 8, Hamlet, brings Bret closer than ever to proving his theory about Robert Mallory, only to end with Bret becoming physically intimate with the same person he believes could be the Trawler. The episode strongly suggests that Bret and Robert spend the night together, but it deliberately stops short of making every…
Apple TV’s Mayday sends Ryan Reynolds behind enemy lines, but the Cold War adventure was assembled far from the Soviet Union. Directed by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, the 1987-set action comedy stars Reynolds as U.S. Navy pilot Lieutenant Troy “Assassin” Kelly, whose secret mission over Russian territory goes wrong. His unlikely lifeline is…
Basia Newman arrived on MasterChef: Global Gauntlet with an unusual advantage that had nothing to do with an immunity pin. She already knew what it was like to watch someone close to her deal with the pressure of Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen because her husband, Michael Newman, had reached the Top 5 of MasterChef Season 11.…
The old streets, grand churches and seemingly untouched houses in Netflix’s Lovesick are not the product of one enormous studio backlot. The Mexican period drama, released under its original title Mal de amores in Spanish-speaking markets, was filmed extensively across Puebla and San Luis Potosí, with additional work in Mexico City and several smaller communities…
Julia Cili came within one cook of reaching the MasterChef: Global Gauntlet finale, but her connection to the competition began long before Season 16. The Miami, Florida, home cook represented Italy on Team Europe and entered the kitchen carrying a family history that immediately made her audition personal. Her grandmother, Veronica Cili, had competed on…
The last episode of Lovesick appears to force Emilia Sauri into the decision she has spent much of her life avoiding: Daniel Cuenca or Antonio Zavalza. Yet the answer is deliberately more complicated than simply naming a winner. In the main timeline, Emilia chooses the stable life she can build with Zavalza rather than continuing…
Netflix’s Lovesick places Emilia Sauri in such a carefully recreated version of revolutionary-era Mexico that it is easy to assume she was a forgotten pioneering doctor. Emilia Sauri, however, was not a real person, and Lovesick is not based on her biography. She is the fictional protagonist of Ángeles Mastretta’s novel Mal de amores, which…
With five home cooks remaining, MasterChef: Global Gauntlet turns its semifinal into a test of something the contestants have rarely been asked to do this season: stop cooking like themselves and follow two elite chefs almost step for step. Keeping Up With Gordon and Tiffany ultimately sends Basia Newman and Julia Cili home, leaving Heidi…
Ciara Miller is not entering Dancing With the Stars Season 35 as a complete beginner. The Summer House star has revealed that she spent years learning dance while growing up, including roughly a decade of ballet training. That experience could make Ciara one of Season 35’s contestants to watch, particularly when it comes to musicality,…
One of The Runner‘s most important revelations comes when Maia Marten tells the Caller that the story he knows about her childhood is incomplete. Throughout the film, the accepted version is that Maia’s mother went to prison after killing Maia’s abusive father. Near the climax, Maia claims the opposite: she says she was actually the…
Damian Lewis’ villain in The Runner never receives a conventional name. He is identified simply as the Caller, an experienced operative hired in connection with Boyd’s criminal case to eliminate Tafa before the protected witness can testify. Noah’s kidnapping is not driven by a personal grudge against Maia or her family. The Caller abducts him…
