TV Updates Casting Rent: Live! Reading the casting announcement for Rent: Live! was a journey of emotions –five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred journeys to be exact. That is just the first of many cringe-inducing Rent references I will make in this post. I am not sorry. Normally, I don’t love judging casts before By Kathleen • Oct 30, 2018 03:11 pm
TV Updates Kiernan Shipka in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina In some ways, Netflix’s new Riverdale spin-off, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, is similar to Sabrina the Teenage Witch, both being inspired by the same Archie Comics book.

TV Updates Richard Madden in Bodyguard First of all, in this household we only recognize one bodyguard and that is Frank Farmer. But recognized as one stressful motherf-cker is David Budd, protagonist of the BBC/Netflix show Bodyguard.

TV Updates Steve Carell also returns to “television” Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon’s TV show about a morning show is an item of excitement around the virtual LaineyGossip office. Like this might actually get me to subscribe to Apple TV, as Apple’s plan to be, basically, broadcast television for streaming sounds boring as f-ck. BUT. Reese By Sarah • Oct 23, 2018 04:33 pm
TV Updates Intro for October 22, 2018 Dear Gossips, I mentioned last week that I was worried about my binge bone, like maybe it had stopped working because I have so many shows paused through two or three episodes. Well. Not a problem anymore. All it took was a mandatory weekend of rest and Elite on Netflix. By Lainey • Oct 22, 2018 08:33 am
TV Updates Busy Philipps’s gossipy book Busy Philipps’s book, This Will Only Hurt a Little, came out yesterday. I can’t wait to read it this weekend.

TV Updates Love for Lana Noah Centineo owes all of the love he’s been getting to two women: Jenny Han for creating Peter Kavinsky and Lana Condor for making him look so good by being so damn good herself. In the aftermath of the To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before hype, Noah By Kathleen • Oct 12, 2018 12:30 pm
TV Updates Meredith Grey’s blind date Fifteen seasons. I have given Shonda Lynn Rhimes and Grey’s Anatomy almost 15 whole seasons of my life. Fifteen seasons of plane crashes, tumour ghosts, death, heartbreak, more death and more heartbreak. FIFTEEN SEASONS and yet, Shonda and her staff seem to have no respect for my time and By Kathleen • Oct 11, 2018 09:35 am
TV Updates Here for the Tennant-Sheen bro-down Authors and Nerd Gods Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman once collaborated on a novel, Good Omens. It’s about an angel and a demon who got a little too comfy on Earth to tolerate the apocalypse and try to thwart it. It’s been in development almost as long as By Sarah • Oct 09, 2018 11:27 am
TV Updates The other Riverdale couple The third season of Riverdale premieres tomorrow. Season two was so embarrassingly bad even my teen-drama-loving-ass couldn’t get through it. I’m still not caught up. If it wasn’t for Sarah’s insistence, and the fact that my general interest in Riverdale’s cast of extremely pretty people By Kathleen • Oct 09, 2018 10:50 am
TV Updates I want Sabrina now, please Last month we got a teaser for Netflix’s Riverdale spin-off, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Now, we have a full trailer and yes, please, I want to put this show in my eyeballs like, yesterday. This is hardcore my aesthetic, from the vintage birthday party to the necromancy ritual By Sarah • Oct 04, 2018 02:53 pm
TV Updates Feel the rain on your skin Ever wonder what happened to Brody Jenner? No, of course not. But new ideas are expensive and risky and reality TV reboots are cheap and easy, so The Hills is being rebooted with a twist: Mischa Barton is the new Lauren Conrad, who was a reality TV version of Marissa By Maria • Oct 04, 2018 09:30 am
TV Updates Matt Damon is Brett Kavanaugh Adam Driver hosted Saturday Night Live’s season premiere this weekend but the headlines have so far been all about Kanye West, currently the world’s second most effective attention-whore, and Matt Damon in the cold open as Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, aka the f-ckboy judge. I laughed at By Lainey • Oct 01, 2018 09:56 am
TV Updates The Pearson problems This Is Us premiered last night. We are now in season three of the show I have hailed as the best drama on network television. I think that’s still true but it’s going to have to fix some major problems that have plagued the show since episode one By Kathleen • Sep 26, 2018 02:53 pm
TV Updates Maniac is a sideways examination of healing Describing Maniac is pointless. It’s a dozen different shows stuffed into one larger framework, and if it accomplishes nothing else, it at least makes me want to see a fantasy series starring Emma Stone as a half-elf ranger with a drinking problem. But Maniac does accomplish more than that— By Sarah • Sep 26, 2018 10:18 am
