The go-to artist for musicals in recent years is the writer/creator of the newest sensation, Hamilton, Lin-Manuel Miranda. The esteemed songwriter has been behind such music for films like In the Heights, Moana, Encanto, and more. As Disney checks through their list of old animated classics to give live-action remakes, when it comes to updating or welcoming new additions to the soundtracks for these adaptations, Miranda is given carte blanche to create new tunes that update and honor the originals. According to Empire, Miranda is such a fan of the original 1989 animated film, The Little Mermaid, when given the task to write new music for the live-action adaptation, he would make sure not to drop the ball by appointing himself the “Head of the Don’t Fuck It Up Committee.” Miranda would tell Empire when he was offered the chance to be involved with the Rob Marshall re-imagining, “I said,...

Is it just me, or does every character on Ted Lasso need a hug?
Ted Lasso Season 3 Episode 5 continued to put them all through the wringer as they searched for meaning in different ways.
We'll start with Rebecca because she's been quite literally getting signs following her meeting with the psychic on Ted Lasso Season 3 Episode 3.
Hannah Waddingham plays every aspect of Rebecca to perfection, but she was on another level throughout "Signs" as Rebecca went through every emotion in her quest to make sense of the psychic's teases.
The saddest part of Rebecca's journey is that she didn't believe anything the psychic said, so whenever something happens, she's more curious than ever.
The "sh-t- in nining armor" of it all has been the topic of much debate since the trip to the psychic, so you can only imagine my surprise when she bumped into John Wingsnight and his new fiance muttered that phrase.

It’s been nearly two years since the NCAA adopted a policy that allows college sports stars to earn financial benefits from their name, image, and likeness (Nil) rights. In the first year of the the Nil era, student athletes earned nearly $1 billion thanks to the new rules.
Those payments have come from a multitude of industries, but for many student-athletes, the creator economy offers the strongest financial opportunities. There are more than 75,000 college sports creators who are monetizing their channels, and those creators are the fastest-growing group on shoutout platform Cameo.
College athletics is now a gold rush, and companies are rushing in to work with the next generation of sports influencers. One of the firms leading that push is Viral Nation, a creator-focused marketing and technology company. By working alongside an eclectic roster of student-athletes, Viral Nation is preparing its partners for post-graduate careers in content creation.

Terrible decisions lead to terrible outcomes.
The defense got a chance to plead their case on Perry Mason Season 2 Episode 6, and they did exemplary well, but a secret they had kept threatened to undo all the work they had done.
Della fell for Anita, leading to her making a significant decision while Rafael struggled to maintain his sanity in prison.
The highlight was the defense hearing, where they sought to convince the jury that someone else had the motive to kill Brooks.
When we were first introduced to Brooks on Perry Mason Season 2 Episode 1, he had just finished engaging in his favorite activity.
It was discernable as early as then that he was a troubled man who, apart from being overconfident in his business abilities, was deprived sexually in some way. He would engage in extramarital sex a short distance from his wife and children and then kiss them with that same mouth.
