Season One of Kevin Can F Himself is underway on AMC, and it is a precious gem of a show. The show is unlike anything I’ve ever seen on television, and I love it. The show stars Annie Murphy as Allison (Schitt’s Creek) and Eric Peterson as Allison’s very annoying husband, Kevin. The show follows Allison McRoberts, a sitcom wife who escapes the prerecorded laughs and multi-camera setup famous in many American sitcoms and starts leading her own life. Every time she is away from her husband, the viewers look at what Allison feels more realistically by using a single camera setup. For everybody who has ever watched a sitcom show and thought that the characters were annoying and fake, this show is for you. Just the concept alone was enough to keep me watching. The show was created by Valerie Armstrong, who also serves as an executive producer. Check out new episodes of Kevin Can F Himself on AMC on Sunday nights.

Cancel Culture is back at it again and this time its target was shock rocker Marilyn Manson. Manson’s ex-girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood went on social media earlier this week, and called out Manson by his real name. In her post Wood’s said she had been abused by Manson for years. She went on to say that she stands with the women who have made the same claims. Manson was dropped by his record label earlier this week. Manson was also released from all his Hollywood representation. Starz has released a statement in the wake of all this and said that that Manson will be removed from American Gods. AMC’s Shudder has also removed Manson from its upcoming horror anthology series Creepshow season 2. With all these allegations against Manson it will be very interesting where his career goes from here. He recently released a statement against the allegations denying them. What do you think will happen to Marilyn Manson ? Leave a comment below.

I remember a few years back I had the honor of covering the Walking Dead press room at San Diego Comic Con. I got to ask a question that I was surprised no one else had asked in the press room. The person I got to ask my question too was none other than Jeffrey Dean Morgan who portrays baddie Negan on the series. “When will we see a Negan origin story?” Was the question I got to ask. I was kind of scared to ask the question, but I remember Morgan’s eyes lighting up and all he said was “Hopefully one day.” Fast forward a few years and we are finally getting an origin story. Angela Kang the showrunner for The Walking Dead has recently revealed that a Negan origin story will take place in early 2021. The episodes will air during the extended season 10 season entitled “Here’s Negan,” and will explore Negan’s pre zombie life and dealing with his terminally ill wife Lucille. Lucille will be portrayed by Dean’s real life wife, Hilarie Burton Morgan. This will …
During season two of the AMC series “NOS4A2” we have learned quite a bit of backstory behind Charlie Manx, played by actor Zachary Quinto, as well as, Christmasland. We also got to see a much younger version of Charlie Manx, expertly portrayed by young actor Aidan Pierce Brennan.

Brennan’s current projects include starring opposite Katie Holmes, Jerry O’Connell and Josh Lucas in highly anticipated film based upon the best-selling novel “The Secret” and of course his role on AMC’s “NOS4A2” for which he was gracious enough to take a few minutes out of his day to speak to us about. Brennan talks about his transformation into the young Charlie Manx character, as well as, his favorite moments on set and more! You have done some tremendously big projects at your young …

The second season of the AMC series NOS4A2 has recently made its premiere and after the final moments of season one, we were certainly left with many burning questions. It appeared that the infamous blood-sucker Charlie Manx was possibly dead, however as we now know he is very much alive and well (so long as he can get his Christmasland feedings). This season is all about revenge for Manx and going up against his nemesis Vic McQueen. This season the series, which is based on the story by author Joe Hill, is certainly taking a darker turn, but we are certainly loving every moment. We recently had a chance to catch up with series star Zachary Quinto who plays the villainous Charlie Manx to get the inside scoop on his character development, the new season, and more. Can you talk about your continued development of the Charlie Manx character going into season two? We learned quite a bit in season one and were absolutely hooked and season two is shaping up to be amazing as well. ZACHARY QUINTO: I think …
The third season of the hit BBC America series “Killing Eve” picks up sometime after the events of the season two finale, which left main protagonist Eve Polastri’s(Sandra Oh) survival in limbo after being shot by Villanelle (Jodie Comer). Obviously, we learn quite quickly that Eve survived the ordeal, but the question remains at what cost? It was a bit confusing that season three immediately jumped straight into the present time without giving us any glimpse at what Eve, and Villanelle for that matter, went through after the events of season two finale. It was almost as if we hopped right into the middle of a new storyline without any of those details. For instance, who found Eve? What was the healing process like for her? How did they keep her survival a secret from Villanelle? And also, just how much time has actually passed? Those questions aside, the first two episodes were solid but did not move at the pace we’ve come to expect from “Killing Eve”, it was not until the third episode that we found ourselves once …
AMC revealed the first look at Michael Sheen as TV Presenter Chris Tarrant in the upcoming three-part drama, Quiz. Directed by globally renowned director Stephen Frears (A Very English Scandal, Florence Foster Jenkins, Philomena, The Queen) and written by playwright James Graham (Brexit: An Uncivil War, Ink, This House, Labour of Love), Quiz tells the extraordinary and sensational story of how Charles and Diana Ingram attempted an ‘audacious heist’ on the quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The image recreates the famous shot of Tarrant arriving to give evidence in the Ingram trial at Southwark Crown Court in March 2003. Major Ingram (Matthew Macfadyen), his wife Diana (Sian Clifford) and an accomplice, Tecwen Whittock (Michael Jibson), who was sitting in the audience, were accused of cheating their way to a million pounds on what was the most popular game show on earth in 2001. The couple stood trial for conspiring by coughing during the recording to signify the correct answers to the multiple-choice questions posed to the Major by host, Chris Tarrant. The drama also stars Mark Bonnar as Celador Television Chairman, Paul Smith; Helen McCrory as Sonia Woodley QC; and Aisling Bea as …

The Walking Dead continues on Sunday, November 3rd at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. In the new episode, “What Always Is”, valuable supplies go missing from Hilltop and Ezekiel holds a secret. Meanwhile, Negan is idolized by an Alexandrian. “The Walking Dead” is a story that started 10 years ago with one man trying to find his family. That family grew and gradually communities took shape. They fought and survived, thrived and gave birth to a new generation. It is a tale of humankind and there are more stories to tell. It is now Spring, a few months after the end of Season Nine, when our group of survivors dared to cross into Whisperer territory during the harsh winter. The collected communities are still dealing with the after-effects of Alpha’s horrific display of power, reluctantly respecting the new borderlines being imposed on them, all while organizing themselves into a militia-style fighting force, preparing for a battle that may be unavoidable. But the Whisperers is a threat unlike any they have ever faced. Backed by a massive horde of the dead it is seemingly a …
