Throughout Watchmen’s run, I’ve been wondering what the linchpin is, what is the piece that connects Angela Abar’s story and the conspiracy in Tulsa with Adrian Veidt trying to escape from outer space, and now we know—it’s not a “what”, it’s a “who”.

Over six episodes of Watchmen, a pattern has emerged. There are two central story tenets, one grounded in the expanded world of the show, centering on Angela Abar and the thematic exploration of race in America.

Erin Doherty stars in the third season of The Crown as grown-up Princess Anne, and she is MAGNIFICENT. She is also, unfortunately, criminally underused. (They skipped the kidnapping attempt!

But for the brief time Doherty is on screen, she gives a masterclass in Unimpressed Face, perfectly capturing Princess Anne’s legendarily indifferent visage. Full Story

Twitter/ Ru Paul's Drag Race UK
Yesterday (at least in Canada) was the finale for the first season of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK. In many ways, the finale was satisfying. We got a lot of screen time with AJ Pritchard, who is HOT AF. I saw a lot of “flooded my basement” in comments about him and honestly? Same. Also, if you’re wondering if his brother Curtis seems familiar, that’s because he was on Love Island Series 5! Love Island crossing over with Drag Race? I can die in peace now. Full Story
