Saturday Night Live is going to be starting Season 47 in a couple of weeks and we're happy to hear it because more comedy is always a good thing. The show just announced the hosts and musical guests for the new season's first four episodes.
Owen Wilson will host the Saturday Night Live Season 47 premiere on Oct. 2 to promote the new Wes Anderson film The French Dispatch, which lands in theaters on Oct. 22. He'll be joined by Kacey Musgraves who makes her second appearance as the musical guest...

It is officially Emmys week, and TV's biggest stars are wondering who will take home the top prizes at Sunday's awards ceremony. It's a competitive roster of nominees, with Apple TV+'s Ted Lasso expected to make a big splash in the comedy categories. Outstanding Drama is still a question mark, though, as The Crown, Bridgerton, The Boys, This Is Us, and more have the potential to win big. Netflix has yet to win in the Outstanding Drama Series category; will this be the year? Everything will be...

Because rugged cowboys are timeless, and there seems to be no end to stories about them, the folks responsible for the massive hit TV show Yellowstone have come up with a prequel show that will tell some of the Dutton family history. The new show is titled 1883, and it was created by Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan. Fans are already chomping at the bit -- pun intended -- for the new show.
From the sound of it, expect more wide-open spaces, big blue skies, and many struggles of the 1883 fo...

One week. We have just one week until the ultimate feel-good show of 2020, Ted Lasso, returns with a new season. The first season provided much-needed comfort in harrowing pandemic times. The series, based on the character Jason Sudeikis originally created for NBC Sports interstitial spots, showed us what the best of humanity looks like with positivity and a great biscuit recipe. We've been waiting to find out when we can hang out with our favorite football (or soccer, whatever you want to ca...

You may be thinking about summer barbecues and pool parties, but for TV fans it is peak Emmys season. Voting is already underway for the 2021 Emmy Awards, and with a competitive roster of nominees unveiled, the pressure only gets tougher for Emmy-seeking TV shows.
As we all try to return to some semblance of normal, awards shows are starting to come back in their original form: with an in-person red carpet and an in-person ceremony. The BET Awards recently held a ceremony with guests at socia...

Let's face it, we're all curious about the return of serial killer Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) after the original series' divisive finale. Well, a new chapter of Dexter, dubbed "New Blood" is coming to Showtime. It will be a 10-episode limited series that will reunite series star Hall and showrunner Clyde Phillips.
New Blood is set 10 years after Dexter went missing in the eye of Hurricane Laura. He now resides in the sleepy town of Iron Lake, New York under an assumed name. "Dexter is em...

We're all waiting for the fourth season of Yellowstone and wondering when we can return to the Dutton family melodrama and all those hot ranch hands. Yellowstone Season 3 left many fates up in the air after John (Kevin Costner) was shot, Beth's (Kelly Reilly) office was blown up by a mail bomb, and Kayce (Luke Grimes) was the target of a separate gunman attack. We are pretty sure that Roarke Morris (Josh Holloway) is responsible for planning the attack on the Dutton family, but did Jamie (Wes...

Watching the much-hyped Friends reunion now streaming on HBO Max is satisfying in many ways. It's like curling up on the couch in your comfiest clothes and meeting up with a group of your favorite pals. Sure, you've all changed since the last time you saw each other, but it's just great seeing their familiar faces.
Though we've seen David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudr...

These days when a TV show runs eight seasons that's enough cause for celebration, but in the case of the CBS comedy Mom, there are multiple reasons to celebrate the show. Not only did they produce 170 episodes and receive 10 Emmy nominations over the course of the run, but they also did something very rare in television by focusing on a group of women of all ages, led by Allison Janney. It seems so simple yet it's almost unheard of, especially in network TV.
The series finale continued that t...

The highly anticipated return of Christopher Meloni to the Law & Order family was promoted so heavily that it almost felt like we'd seen the episode before it aired.

He's also living with the Afghan interpreter he worked with overseas; A...

When it comes to NBC sitcoms, there's a certain familiarity to them, usually involving talent that viewers know and love. After growing up on Nickelodeon shows All That and Kenan and Kel and seventeen seasons on Saturday Night Live, Kenan Thompson is already a television fixture and that made him an excellent choice to lead a new NBC sitcom. Happily, Thompson has landed in a smartly crafted show that plays to his many talents and natural warmth.
In Kenan, Thompson plays Kenan Williams, the ho...

When you tune in to watch the new HBO Max darkly comedic murder mystery The Flight Attendant, and you should (and you can now, as HBO Max has released the first episode early!), you may be surprised to see Kaley Cuoco playing a role markedly different from Penny on The Big Bang Theory. Cuoco's choice to play Cassie Bowden, the titular flight attendant who travels and parties internationally, is a shrewd and unexpected follow-up to the broad comedy that catapulted her to stardom.
