Étoile is a comedy-drama from Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino, the married creative team behind Gilmore Girls and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Set in the rarefied world of professional ballet, the series follows two storied but struggling dance companies — one in New York, one in Paris — that hatch an audacious plan to survive: they will swap some of their most gifted stars for a season, hoping the exchange generates the publicity and artistic spark each institution desperately needs.
Luke Kirby and Charlotte Gainsbourg lead as the harried directors on either side of the Atlantic, with Gideon Glick, Lou de Laâge, Simon Callow, and newcomer Taïs Vinolo among the dancers and staff swept up in the scheme. True to the Palladinos' signature style, the show pairs rapid-fire, literate dialogue with a genuine reverence for its milieu, casting real professional dancers and staging extended performance sequences alongside its backstage comedy.
Released on Prime Video in the spring of 2025, Étoile was mounted as an ambitious, bilingual production shot across two countries. Despite an initial two-season order, Prime Video ultimately declined to continue the series beyond its first season, leaving its single run as a distinctive, globe-spanning ode to the art form. It streams on Prime Video.

"Big Brother" numbers among those long-running (unreal) reality shows that keep rolling along on their own momentum long after the thrills have gone. Originally adapted from a popular Dutch series, "Big Brother" puts thirteen carefully chosen strangers in a house heavily wired with cameras and microphones, capturing every word, gesture, and nuance. The producers challenge their "guests" to complete a series of physical and mental "stunts," periodically polling their feelings about who among them should go home. The one guest who stays longest goes home with half-a-million American dollars. Although "Big Brother's" novelty has faded, even the most stony-hearted and cynical critics must accord the superannuated series its props: When an online streaming service attempted a similarly contrived "residential situation," capitalizing on the industry's newest, most sophisticated audio and video technology, it faded to black in less than a month. At the other end of the scale, when MTV adapted "Big Brother's" premise for use along the New Jersey coastline, it became a cultural phenomenon, and "Snooki" became a household word. Clearly, it's not the premise but the chemistry that determines the show's fate. Therefore, credit "Big Brother" with good chemistry and agree to roll along with the momentum.
ABC Nightline and Ted Kopple were synonymous from the 1970's till 2005. Now the late night news program has 3 personalities to replace the famous Kopple.

Basic cable and "reality" programming thrive on American's well-established predilection for all things paranormally creepy; phantom-hunting shows proliferate like bugs in damp places. The dazzling success of "Intervention" TV series and its spin-offs demonstrates they also have an insatiable appetite for other people's behavioral disorders. A&E network innocently claims, "'Intervention' raises awareness about the alternatives and treatment options available to those who suffer from an alcohol or drug addiction, and gives hope to families who have nowhere left to turn." Viewers more honestly explain "Intervention" vividly, realistically shows the horrors of drug addiction and codependency. The show makes perfectly and painfully clear how addicts and their families suffer with the symptoms and consequences of chemical and alcohol dependency. At the end of each hour-long horror show, "Intervention" shows a family and either Jeff VanVonderen or Candy Finnigan, highly trained and experienced psychotherapists, staging an intervention with their chemically dependent loved-one. Most episodes show addicts agreeing to enter treatment, but the producers of "Intervention" TV show make it abundantly clear that no one is guaranteed a happy ending.

Just as "The Twilight Zone" raised the bar for television horror and suspense in the early 1960s, so Rod Serling's "Night Gallery" made its mark in the early 1970s. The very first episode of "Night Gallery" featured a young Steven Spielberg's directorial debut, and just as importantly, it also featured one of actress Joan Crawford's last appearances. To no one's surprise, Serling consistently made viewers' spines tingle and their skin crawl as he pressed further and further along the frayed frontiers of the macabre. In those days though, the programs did not come with cautionary warnings, and many younger viewers were genuinely, thrillingly disturbed by what they saw. "Night Gallery" was by no means horror for intellectual or artistic lightweights. Apropos of the show's title, Serling began each episode of "Night Gallery" surrounded by fine art, and he debuted each story by unveiling a Tom Wright original which illuminated the story. In addition to showcasing all-new pieces, "Night Gallery" also adapted classics by H.P. Lovecraft and other notables.
When you crave a little more Snoop Dogg in your video viewing diet, ride shotgun with him on a guided tour through his dark world, savouring an all-Snoop soundtrack, and beholding the wonders of "More Malice." "More Malice," the movie, shows you why Snoop Dogg leads the league in "branding" "”the man, the myth, the legend, and the cloud of fragrant smoke around him"¦all trademarked, registered, patented, copyrighted, and owned. Although the Snoop himself doesn't often lay down a track any more, his blessing on an artist, a song, or a video bestows "the Midas touch." And he has more than enough in the Snoop Dogg catalogue to sustain brisk sales and mega-downloads pretty much until the world runs out of fossil fuels. You could close read and parse "More Malice," the movie, as the gospel according to Snoop, because it showcases everything good and super-bad about ghetto chic. The music and the movie would stand-up to the scrutiny. But it's a lot more fun and more characteristically Snoop just to go with the follow and see where the mean streets lead.
