Gluttons for emotional punishment would do well to seek out Dylan Southern’s The Thing with Feathers, an ickily-stylised screen adaptation of Max Porter’s hit 2019 novel ​‘Grief is a Thing with Feathers’. It’s telling that they’ve removed the marketing turn-off term ​“grief” from the title, but the fact is, you’d need to have a media literacy score of minus 3000 to not get what this film is selling, as a ghostly humanoid crow verbally harangues and demeans a father and his two kids in the direct wake of their wife/mother’s sudden death. And that grief is laid on with an over-sized trowel as the we have…

NBC The “Chicago P.D.” fall finale is giving fans a lot to think about: a nail-biting cliffhanger involving Imani and a big blackmail reveal for Voight?! Let’s recap.

His hands are brutally slashed, reminding Voight of Episode 4’s Gary Bell, the emotionally disturbed robber and murderer who mutilated his victim’s hands.

An underwater volcano off the coast of Oregon could now blow its top in mid-to late-2026, scientists say.In December last year, scientists said the Axial Seamount was nearing the threshold seen before an eruption a decade earlier and could erupt within a year. Now, they predict the eruption will likely come later than previously expected, in mid-to-late 2026.Axial Seamount is located on the Juan de Fuca Ridge, a divergent plate boundary off the U.S. Pacific Northwest coast. It is the most active submarine volcano in the Northeast Pacific Ocean, with known eruptions in 1998, 2011 and 2015. You may like…

NBC It’s epic. It’s all-American. Sometimes it’s overly sentimental; other times, triumphant. It offers classic good guys, stands against prejudice, and isn’t afraid to make fools of its characters sometimes. It’s “Little House on the Prairie,” which lasted nine seasons and three TV movies, most of which did not, in fact, take place on a prairie, but rather in the creekside town of Walnut Grove. Fans forgive that fact, as well as the other key fact that it deviates significantly from the original autobiographical books by Laura Ingalls Wilder. Executive…

Courtesy of ABC Nope, you didn’t accidentally tune in to a 2017 “Dancing With the Stars” broadcast on Tuesday night.

Preset no. two, my local student-run station, is not interested in boundaries, generationally or sonically. The college kids play an eclectic range of music, including some from the era older folk claim these kids are so far removed from. Despite moving away, I kept the preset for my hometown college station too. I distinctly remember the night I found it: I was 19 and, like in Night of the Comet, it was nearly Christmas, and like Sam, who experiences terrible anxiety at the abuse of her step-mother, I had gotten into a bad fight with my mom. For Sam and me, the radio station was a spiritual balm…

King has also carved out a prolific position on television, his stories often merging with the medium far better than those made for the silver screen. In fact, we dare say, the best way to begin a…
