Do you know which sentence is guaranteed to have us on the edge of our seats? "Officers down."
With a full-blown mafia war breaking out in a hospital during The Rookie Season 6 Episode 8, it will undoubtedly be an exhilarating installment.
And we cannot wait to see which of our favorite characters will be in peril.
One of the things to look forward to is Bradford and Thorsen teaming up with each other.
While that's nothing new on the surface, since Bradford has been the one to train Thorsen more often than not, it's why they're partnered together that's worth getting excited over.
The synopsis teases that the two will work together and participate in a Metro Ops mission.
We already know that Bradford lost his position in Metro due to the events in The Rookie Season 6 Episode 5.

Kristen Stewart, star of Love Lies Bleeding, wasn’t too happy with 2020’s Happiest Season, which is widely deemed the first lesbian Christmas rom-com produced by an eminent Hollywood studio. With openly out Clea DuVall as its director and Stewart as a starring talent attached to it, the outing was deemed a benchmark in the history of mainstream queer Hollywood films.

Looking back on the film now, though, the Twilight star wasn’t pleased with the innumerable ‘notes’ she was given by studio executives, which frustrated her to no end. This inundation boiled down to her hair and get-up in the endeavor. She also empathized with DuVall, who had the patience to keep up with the top brass feedback.
The actress chalked it up to their attempt at sanitizing or, in her words, ‘shrouding’ elements to make its appeal broader and easy to digest. And while...

Suits is continuing to cash in on its current popularity.
The BBC has acquired all nine seasons of the hit American legal drama, along with mockumentary St. Denis Medical and the series continuation of the hit Best Man films, The Best Man: The Final Chapters, for its TV channels and the BBC iPlayer streaming service.
It acquired the three titles from NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution.
Set in a New York City law firm, Suits stars Patrick J.

Kristen Stewart is opening up about filming Happiest Season, saying it was “fucking annoying” getting “so many” notes from studio executives about her style in the movie.
During a recent interview with Them magazine for her new film Love Lies Bleeding, the actress briefly looked back at filming the 2020 holiday rom-com, directed by Clea DuVall, that featured an LGBTQ love story.
“The identity was beaten out of my goals there,” she said of the film. “I was getting so many studio executive notes about my hair and my clothes. I was like, ‘You did read the script. You did hire me. What are we doing here?’ It was fucking annoying.”
Stewart continued. “And it’s fine, because I guess there are ways that you need to shroud things for everyone to easily digest. And I’m down with that. And honestly, fucking hats off to Clea, because I don’t have the patience [to do] that.

Last week we got the first two episodes of Sanctuary: A Witch’s Tale, a British fantasy-mystery-thriller set in a world where witchcraft is a registered occupation. The town of Sanctuary is a place that witches have been calling their safe haven for years; however, things are about to get nasty after a young boy falls to his death at a party in an abandoned warehouse. In the first two episodes, we learn that Sarah is the only registered witch in Sanctuary, and her daughter Harper isn’t like her mother. However, with the news of Dan the hunk’s death, everyone has been blaming Harper. A boy named Jacob, who was clearly in love with Dan, believes he has evidence against Harper, proving that she used witchcraft against Dan. Could Harper have killed Dan? What was Dan really like? Let’s find out in episode 3 of Sanctuary: A Witch’s Tale.

Prime Video has given a series order to Criminal, a drama based on the multi-Eisner Award-winning graphic novel series created by Ed Brubaker, who writes the comic, and Sean Phillips, who illustrates it. Brubaker, who penned the pilot script, will co-showrun the TV series with crime fiction author Jordan Harper (Hightown).

My first impression of Sanctuary: A Witch’s Tale was that this might be a low-budget British version of Big Little Lies, only with the inclusion of witches, but I was very wrong. This show will transport you back to the early 2000s with the way it’s made, the styling, and the way some of the themes of the show are addressed. In this world, “Sanctuary” is a safe haven for witches, who can live as registered individuals freely and safely. The show begins with an incident that takes place six years ago, where somebody got seriously wounded before Sarah, the resident witch, made a cut on her hand to cast a spell and save that person. We don’t see who this is, but by the end of the first two episodes of Sanctuary: A Witch’s Tale, we will learn who it was and what happened to them eventually.

While its title and its availability on AMC+ (in addition to Sundance Now) might suggest otherwise, Sanctuary: A Witch’s Tale is less akin to Interview With the Vampire or Mayfair Witches than to crime dramas like Big Little Lies or Mare of Easttown — albeit with less prestige gloss and more janky CG. Though that comparison doesn’t feel quite right, either.
What’s most memorable about the series is neither its supernatural elements, which are only vaguely explained, nor even really its central murder mystery. It’s the clear and unsparing portrait of its villain, a woman who weaponizes her genuine grief over the death of her son into a literal witch hunt, with shocking and horrifying results.
Upon first glance, Sanctuary looks every inch the Edenic retreat suggested by its name, a cluster of picturesque homes nestled amid rolling green hills. During a picnic for new neighbors, Sarah (Elaine Cassidy...

Spielberg: The First Ten Years by Laurent Bouzereau (Insight Editions) and Steven Spielberg: All the Films by Olivier Bousquet, Arnaud Devillard, and Nicolas Schaller (Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers)
I am not sure what Steven Spielberg obsessives like myself did to earn two lengthy, photo-backed, hardcover career appreciations, but I’m not complaining. Steven Spielberg: All the Films runs for nearly 500 pages and covers literally everything, from the director’s contributions to Rod Serling’s Night Gallery to The Fabelmans. Along the way are some unique insights, surprising facts (Leonardo DiCaprio was approached to play Tintin?), and the inclusion of some of his 1980s television work. And Spielberg: The First Ten Years is just as engaging, and even more in-depth.

Sony Pictures Television wants to know: Can The Good Doctor continue airing on U.S. broadcast TV?
Sony has asked the Federal Election Commission for an advisory opinion on whether the show can continue to air new episodes, and older episodes currently in syndication, in the state of Michigan.
The medical drama, which airs new episodes on ABC, stars Freddie Highmore as Dr. Sean Murphy, a surgeon with extraordinary skills and intuition.
But it also stars Hill Harper as Dr. Marcus Andrews, the head of the hospital surgery department, and later, as its president.
In July, Harper announced that he was running to fill an open U.S. Senate seat in his home state of Michigan. At issue is whether airing episodes of The Good Doctor would be classified as a “contribution” or “expenditure” to Harper’s Senate campaign by Sony.

Stephen King’s novels and short stories are ready-made material for horror genre filmmakers to adapt and send the viewers into a labyrinth of terror. Many of his works are very well known. The new movie The Boogeyman, directed by Rob Savage, is based on King’s 1973 short story of the same name. It tells the story of the Harper family, which suffers terribly after the death of the mother. The father, a psychiatrist by the name of Will Harper, while struggling to deal with his own grief, starts to focus too much on his work and not enough on his two young girls. The elder, Sadie, drifts apart from her friends at school, and the younger one, Sawyer, starts to get terrified in her room at night. All this has to do with a sick man who came to see Will at his house. The characters are rich in their inner lives,...

The new horror film The Boogeyman does something very unusual as compared to other recent horror movies. It places importance on both the characters in the film and the tropey jumpscares, which is why I think it is highly engaging and connects very deeply because of the well-written characters. This does not mean that it’s completely devoid of genre conventions. On the contrary, it is totally a conventional movie, and you might see the twist coming, yet there is something very tender about the film that has been wonderfully brought forward by the performances. The story revolves around the Harper family, which was grieving their mother’s death.
Will Harper lost his wife and now has to look after the two children. Sadie, the elder daughter, was growing distant from Will, and Sawyer, the younger one, was just too young, but she too missed her mother. She constantly reminded Will of this feeling,...

In the wake of Lisa Marie Presley’s untimely death, questions regarding the custody of her 14-year-old twin daughters, Harper and Finley, have arisen. With the girls previously spending the majority of their time with Lisa Marie, the spotlight has now shifted to their father, Michael Lockwood, as he assumes full custody.
However, the custody change is not the only legal entanglement affecting the family. Amid these developments, Priscilla Presley, Lisa Marie’s mother, faces accusations about her daughter’s estate — aka Elvis Presley’s estate — adding another layer of complexity to an intricate family dynamic.
Michael has custody of Lisa Marie Presley’s twin daughters
At the time of her untimely passing, Lisa Marie was residing with her first husband, Danny Keough. She shared the custody of her twin teenage daughters, Harper and Finley, with her ex-husband Michael.

One year after becoming the first program in Emmys history to simultaneously net five nominations in a single female acting category, “The White Lotus” has managed to repeat the impressive feat. The only performer involved in both situations is Jennifer Coolidge, who bested her four first season cast mates in the 2022 Best TV Movie/Limited Series Supporting Actress race and is now heavily favored to do the same in the Best Drama Supporting Actress category. Having already bagged Critics Choice, Golden Globe, and Screen Actors Guild Awards for her second season performance, there isn’t much stopping her from once again being called up to the Emmys stage.
The quartet of “White Lotus” ladies Coolidge faces this time consists of Meghann Fahy, Sabrina Impacciatore, Aubrey Plaza, and Simona Tabasco. Also in the running are returning contenders Rhea Seehorn (“Better Call Saul”) and J. Smith-Cameron (“Succession”), who both lost to Julia Garner (“Ozark”) last year,...

Riley Keough Will Be ‘Happy’ With Priscilla Presley, Now That Lisa Marie Presley’s Estate Is Settled
Shortly after Elvis Presley‘s daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, died in January 2023, it appeared her mother, Priscilla Presley, and daughter, Riley Keough, were at odds regarding Elvis Presley’s estate. Four days after Lisa Marie’s memorial service, her loved ones headed to court after Priscilla filed a petition questioning the validity of a 2016 amendment to her daughter’s living trust. Months later, all appears to be well between grandmother and granddaughter. Riley says she is “happy” now that Lisa Marie’s estate is settled.

Four days after Lisa Marie Presley’s Graceland memorial and burial, Priscilla’s lawyers questioned an amendment to Lisa Marie’s living trust. The change removed both Priscilla and Barry Siegel as cotrustees.

It feels like just yesterday when Shaun Murphy was a first-year medical resident who had to prove that his autism wouldn't interfere with his ability to be a surgeon.
But it's been six years, and as of The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 22, Shaun is now a first-time father and attending physician at St. Bonaventure.
That's right -- The Good Doctor Season 7 is on its way, and we have info to share!
The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 22 ended on a high note, with Shaun holding his baby for the first time and naming him Steven Aaron after his brother and Dr. Glassman -- the latter of whom refused to come in to meet the baby.
That means there's potential for plenty of new-parent drama alongside the usual medical storylines when The Good Doctor continues.

Lisa Marie Presley had opioids and other medications in her system at the time of her death.
Months after the shocking, unexpected death of Elvis Presley’s only child, fans are getting more concrete answers about the circumstances surrounding her untimely death. On Thursday, the results of her toxicology report at the time of her death were released, revealing she had therapeutic levels of Oxycodone her blood.
Additionally, a second opioid, known as Buprenorphine, was present in her system. This opioid can be prescribed for pain relief, as well as for use to treat opioid addiction. Additionally, the tox screening also found traces of Quetiapine, an antipsychotic medication.
The toxicology reports were released shortly after the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s Office released Lisa Marie’s cause of death, revealing she died from sequelae of small bowel obstruction. The autopsy stated that the opioids in her system did not contribute to her death.

Lisa Marie Presley‘s official cause of death has been revealed. The daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley passed away in January due to a small bowel obstruction.
A report obtained by TMZ from the Los Angeles County Coroner concluded that the obstruction led to the musician and philanthropist’s sudden hospitalization for abdominal pain and cardiac arrest before her death on January 12th at 54 years old. The obstruction was deemed to be a strangulated small bowel caused by an adhesion developed after undergoing bariatric surgery several years prior.
Prior to her hospitalization, Presley complained of abdominal pain, fevers, vomiting, and nausea, but did not seek medical attention.

Reese Witherspoon said in a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar that filming a sex scene at 19 years old for the 1996 thriller “Fear” was not “a particularly great experience.” Directed by James Foley, “Fear” stars Witherspoon as a teenager who falls for a sinister young man played by Mark Wahlberg. One of the film’s buzziest scenes centers on Witherspoon’s character having an orgasm on a rollercoaster while being pleasured by Mark Wahlberg’s character.
“I didn’t have control over it,” Witherspoon said about filming the sex scene, adding that she requested a stunt double be used for the below-the-waist shots. “It wasn’t explicit in the script that that’s what was going to happen, so that was something that I think the director thought of on his own and then asked me on set if I would do it, and I said no. It wasn’t a particularly great experience.

Hill Harper announced on Monday, his plans to run for U.S. Senate in Michigan to replace retiring Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow, who stated in January that she would not be running for reelection in 2024. The actor posted his message to Twitter, dedicating his bid for office to his adopted son, Pierce Harper.
In the attached campaign video, Harper addresses Pierce, saying, “You see the world you’re growing up in doesn’t feel like it’s getting any better, it’s getting more divisive and more dangerous. When you told me you were afraid to go to school because of shootings, that’s not freedom.”
He later added, “At the core of so much of this are too many politicians in office who don’t really care about people.”
We can all feel it: D.C just isn’t getting things done for people.

The doctor is in … the Michigan Senate race. Actor Hill Harper is setting his sights on politics.
The Good Doctor star on Monday announced he is running for Michigan’s open U.S. Senate seat, challenging U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin for the Democratic nomination.
In an interview with the Associated Press ahead of the announcement, the actor, who owns a home and a coffee shop in Detroit, described himself as a small-business owner, union member and activist and explained how not being a “career politician” would give him an advantage in Congress. “It’s not about party. It’s about people feeling represented,” Harper said. “And being an independent voice in the U.S. Senate is something I believe Michiganders want right now.”
Harper has had a 30-year career in television, co-starring in series such as City of Angels, CSI: NY, Covert Affairs, Limitless and Homeland. He has played Dr.

"I See You" defies expectations. What begins as a typical crime thriller mutates into something more intricate and profound. Devon Graye penned the script, blending together social commentary on child abuse, infidelity, police corruption, and homelessness. At the heart of the film is the concept of phrogging -- when a person or persons secretly squat inside someone else's home. Director Adam Randall elevates the film with long static shots, emotional character close-ups, and methodical dolly glides. The camera work here takes on a life all its own. But let's not forget the film's chill-inducing score, courtesy of composer William Arcane, which punctuates the film's vital and mouth-dropping moments.
Initially, "I See You" arrived in theaters in late 2019 and grossed just over $1 million at the box office. But when the film hit Netflix, it went viral -- scoring top slots in the streamer's daily Top 10 list. As we revisit this harrowing movie,...
