TV Updates Ms. Marvel suits up Friday was “Disney+ Day”, aka a global marketing bonanza in which Disney tried to gin up some interest in new subscriptions for Disney+ after they missed Wall Street expectations and added “just” 2.1 million new subscribers in their fourth quarter.

Movie Reviews and Previews Ryan and Will swap Ryan Reynolds is promoting Red Notice, out today on Netflix (my review is posting later today), and Will Ferrell is promoting The Shrink Next Door, dropping on Apple TV+ today, too.

TV Updates Maya Rudolph on set? Here are photos of Maya Rudolph in a fuchsia dress and horrible crocs “on set” for “Human Resources”. Why the quotations? Because I think these photos might be mislabeled. Human Resources is a spin-off of Big Mouth centered on the hormone monsters and other imaginary creatures of Big Mouth. Rudolph’ By Sarah • Nov 10, 2021 01:42 pm
Aging Gorgessity It’s Paul Rudd! So the question is…who f-cked over Page Six?! Last week Page Six claimed to have been told by “multiple sources” that Chris Evans would be named PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive this year. Well, they were wrong. Chris Evans is not the Sexiest Man Alive. Did PEOPLE intentionally false-leak By Lainey • Nov 10, 2021 09:35 am
TV Updates Squid Game: Campaign and Sequel As noted yesterday, Netflix is pushing an award season run for Squid Game, its most successful show ever. This is pretty radical, for multiple reasons.

Award Season Campaigning Squid Game on the Campaign Trail + Lee Min-ho Over the last few years, the annual Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) Art + Film Gala (now in its tenth year) has become an unofficial campaign stop during award season.

TV Updates SJP and Chris Noth: And Just Like That… Soon Sarah Jessica Parker and Chris Noth were photographed in New York yesterday shooting scenes for And Just Like That. The paps describe this as a “romantic” moment, and it looks that way with Carrie wrapping her arms around Big while wearing a very Carrie outfit – so Carrie that, to me By Lainey • Nov 08, 2021 11:02 am
TV Updates Even more Miracle Workers I don’t talk about Miracle Workers much because I genuinely love it so much that I just don’t want to turn it into work, but I must tell you that Miracle Workers has been picked up for a FOURTH season.

TV Updates This is not good timing Station Eleven is an award-winning dystopia novel by Emily St. John Mandel about a flu epidemic that devastates the world.

TV Updates Succession: The Disruption Typically, each week I sort out the Roys and their assorted minions into hot/cold categories but this week, it’s a spiral.

TV Updates Jeremy Renner flashback Jeremy Renner always knows just when the world needs him, whether it’s bringing us mediocre dad rock during a pandemic, or revolutionizing social media with the Jeremy Renner app. Now, however, Jeremy Renner is bringing us something I almost forgot he had in his repertoire—decent acting. He has By Sarah • Oct 29, 2021 01:42 pm
TV Updates Brace yourself for Tiger King 2 Tiger King is unquestionably one of the biggest hits of 2020, benefitting from both the true crime moment in pop culture, and its arrival on Netflix just as the first wave of COVID sent everyone home last spring.

Hair Intro for October 28, 2021 Dear Gossips, It was announced a couple of weeks ago that Will Poulter has been cast as Adam Warlock in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3. Who is Adam Warlock?
