“The Truth IS Still Out There” in this new The X-Files Trailer

The first 24-seconds of the trailer begins with a man’s voice in a low staccato rhythm, “It will probably start on a Friday. What will seem like an attack on America by terrorists or Russia, driven by a well oiled, well armed and multinational group of elites, using alien technology the government’s been hiding for seventy years.” If we heard nothing else but this, punctuated by a single base note, we could guess which dynamic duo is returning after an almost fourteen year absence –

Watch Trevor Noah’s First 11 Minutes on The Daily Show

"Growing up in the dusty streets of South Africa, I never dreamed that I would one day have, well, two things, really," Trevor Noah began as the new host of The Daily Show. "An indoor toilet and a job as host of The Daily Show. Now I have both, and I'm quite comfortable with one of them." It was a humble, funny start for the new host, one who faced his fair share of controversy from the moment he was selected,

Has Rick Met his Match? Watch Epic Season 6 Teaser for The Walking Dead

We're inching closer to the first episode of The Walking Dead's sixth season, after one hell of a ride in season 5. 

Let's take a quick look back on last season to get us up to speed on what's coming. Season 5 showed our main group, still led by Rich Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), begin to fray in Alexandria. Compared to the Alexandrians, who have lived relatively safely behind the walls of their city,

New Truth Trailer Recalls the Scandal That Rocked Washington

“Why did you get into journalism?” young reporter Mike Smith (Topher Grace) asks Dan Rather (Robert Redford). “Curiosity” he replies, the trait that would serve him well on a remarkable career that would end, abruptly, in disgrace.

Truth is based on the book “Truth and Duty: The Press, the President, and the Privilege of Power” by his producer Mary Mapes (played by Cate Blanchett). It delves into the drama surrounding CBS’s handling of a incendiary investigative report in 2004 detailing George W.

Watch the Cold Open for Season 3 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The premiere for season three of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't until next Tuesday on ABC, but they've released the cold episode of that episode early, a full five minutes of juicy material. It seems a lot has changed since season two's finale, when S.H.I.E.L.D. was battling with Jiaying (Dichen Lachman) and her army of Inhumans.

The opening sequence is a stunner—the ruins of a kitchen and some petrified body parts,

The Flash returns to the CW Network on October 6, bringing back our favorite lightning-struck superhero Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) for season two. Here comes Jay Garrick, the first Flash (?), who has come to warn the current Flash and everybody else that their world is in danger! This prompts the reasonable question from Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes) of exactly how many worlds there are? Many, apparently, but the important take-away here is ours is in danger.

“A girl needs a good friend in here,” Jerome tells Barbara, assuming she’ll be eager to avoid any potential unpleasantness from fellow inmates that, apparently, only Jerome can protect her from.

“The laugh is fabulous. Use that.” This comes from Theo Galavan (James Frain) as he gives some advice to a young, increasingly psychotic Jerome (Cameron Monaghan), who is sliding, gleefully, into the man he will become—the Joker.
