Jessica Jones‘ Emmy-Nominated Composer on the Twisted Intimacy of Season 2
Composer Sean Callery may be an Emmy veteran, but the four-time winner and 17-time nominee never takes any of this for granted. His latest nom is for his work on season 2 of Neflix’s Jessica Jones, the same show he won an Emmy for last year, for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music.
“It never gets old,” Callery says of his near-perpetual Emmy recognition. “You might think it does,

Here’s Your First Glimpse at Game of Thrones Final Season
Still catching your breath from that Sharp Objects finale (and the mid-credits scene)? You’re not alone. HBO was all about delivering the goods last night, which included our first glimpse at True Detective season 3 trailer and a sizzle reel for the embarrassment of riches that is HBO’s 2019 slate, which includes our first look at Game of Thrones season 8 footage.

HBO Drops First Trailer for True Detective Season 3
HBO picked the perfect time to surprise fans with the first trailer for True Detective‘s long-awaited third season; they dropped it right before the season finale for their fantastic miniseries Sharp Objects. Creator and showrunner Nic Pizzolato is back with the third season to his critically acclaimed detective series, once again moving the action to a new location. True Detective went full southern gothic with the first season’s Louisiana setting,
How The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel‘s Emmy-Nominated Editor Gave Midge her Sparkling Start
Timing is everything, or so the saying goes, in comedy. This is just one of the lessons the truly marvelous Midge Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan) learns on her journey to develop a stand-up set when her personal life hits turbulent times. That timing is particularly brisk on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. The show was created by Amy Sherman-Palladino, known for writing the breakneck dialogue of Gilmore Girls. The new Amazon series is sharp,
Emmy Nominated Ozark Cinematographer on the Show’s Bleak & Immersive Style
Ozark is relentless. Whether an emotional reunion, a difficult decision, a gruesome death, or a grisly torture, the camera offers no relief. You cannot look away, but you likely will not want to. The show’s cinematography is compelling and immersive, capitalizing on some of the strongest performances of the season from a cast that includes Jason Bateman, Laura Linney, Julia Garner, and Peter Mullan. Director of Photography Ben Kutchins received an Emmy nomination for his work on the complex season finale packed with emotional bombshells.
David Harbour Delves into the Psychology of Hellboy and Detective Hopper
Stranger Things star David Harbour recently found himself in a place he never expected to be. In the pages of Vanity Fair. Harbour noted to the magazine that he didn’t think he was “interesting enough” to land a feature, but the insight he shared into the characters he’s played was fascinating.
The actor’s upcoming turn as Hellboy may seem like a departure from the Hawkins detective we’ve come to know him as.
The Surprising 1980s Movie Influence of Stranger Things Season 3
The 1980s gave us some of the most quotable movies, most imitable styles, and most iconic imagery. Among the greats I would readily include Stand By Me, E.T., Ghostbusters, and Thriller. However, Stranger Things has been there, done that. But, there’s more! Can I offer you Beetlejuice, Poltergeist, A Nightmare on Elm Street, or The Thing? The series hasn’t done a single Take On Me filter.
Watch a Clip From Terrence Nance’s Brilliant new HBO Series Random Acts of Flyness
Random Acts of Flyness is true to the premiere cable network’s longstanding motto that what you see through their programming isn’t TV, it’s HBO. This new late-night series from multitalented artist Terence Nance (An Oversimplification of Her Beauty) began its six-episode season on Friday, August 3 (midnight-12:30 a.m. ET/PT), with each episode appearing at the same time each week.

How Atlanta‘s Emmy-Nominated Sound Designer Crafted Horror Ep “Teddy Perkins”
Atlanta has been one of TV’s most reliably original shows for the past two years. Donald Glover’s trippy, brilliant exploration of the story of Earnest Marks (Glover) and his cousin Alfred (Brian Tyree Henry)’s attempts to make a name for themselves in Atlanta’s thriving hip-hop scene has created some of the most indelible sequences and moments in TV since the show burst onto the scene in 2016.
The Better Call Saul Production Designer on Jimmy’s Changing Landscape
The inevitable transition from the affable Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) to the hardnosed Saul Goodman is becoming one of the most emotional evolutions on TV. As a whole, Better Call Saul is entering a season of transformation. Production designer Judy Rhee was charged with guiding Jimmy’s world through great personal and professional changes in season 4.
“In the timeline of the prequel, we’re getting closer to Breaking Bad,” Rhee explained.
Everyone in The Romanoffs Has a Serious Royalty Obsession
The first trailer for Matthew Weiner’s upcoming series The Romanoffs doesn’t really tell us more than we knew before. But it is outrageous and decadent and basically a big one-minute name drop. Meet a whole slew of people who think they are related to the slain royal Romanov family – and all of the people who don’t believe them.
Brief refresh from history class. During the Bolshevik revolution,
An Insider Look at Uniting the Incredible Cast of Stranger Things
There is a simple answer to the question of how Stranger Things achieves such perfect chemistry between its actors. They just love working together.
Streaming movies and TV shows through services like Netflix is wonderful, but with the content being so easily accessible we do miss one thing: bonus features. Fortunately for people who don’t want have thrown out their DVD player and have stopped collecting discs, Netflix provides content like this casting video on their YouTube channel.
First Images From Netflix’s new Series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
Netflix‘s upcoming Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is a far cry from Melissa Joan Hart’s Sabrina the Teenage Witch, which aired on ABC for seven seasons beginning in 1996. The reboot, starring Mad Men‘s Kiernan Shipka, adapts the Archie horror comic for our current age of Peak TV, which eschews feel-good messages for a much darker, rawer look at the source material. Two brand new images speak to the new Sabrina,
The Game of Thrones Ice Dragon Debate may Finally be Settled
Last season’s Game of Thrones brought us an almost absurd amount of drama and intrigue. The Stark Sisters increasing acrimony and the threat of Arya killing Sansa. Dany’s march on Westeros and all the complications involved. Cersei’s death grip on power in King’s Landing. The first use of Dany’s dragons against an army of Westeros in that epic “Spoils of War” episode. The absolutely insane plan to go north of the Wall and capture a wight.
Ruby Rose is Batwoman in the CW’s Groundbreaking new Series
We were cautiously optimistic when we heard that the CW was creating a Batwoman series based on the DC comics character Kate Kane. Now that we know Ruby Rose will be starring as the greatest Gotham hero not named Batman, we’re thrilled. The series isn’t 100% confirmed—first, Rose will be appearing in the networks’ annual Arrow-verse crossover event in December. If the introduction excites fans as much as the mere notion is exciting us, then the CW could be green lighting a Batwoman series for the 2019-2020 season.

Jim Carrey Returns in Hilarious, Heartbreaking Trailer for Kidding
Jim Carrey has spent a lot of time in the past few years focusing on other outlets for his abundant creativity, painting and sculpting, and sharing some of his work on Twitter. His career has been marked by major achievements, first becoming a superstar of comedy on television, and then in films, and t hen moving into dramatic roles, most notably in Michel Gondry’s luminous Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Gal Gadot in Talks to Star as Real Life Wonder Woman Hedy Lamarr
Gal Gadot knows a thing or two about playing a Wonder Woman, and now the star of DC’s most popular (and critically acclaimed) superhero franchise may be heading to the small screen to play a real life wonder woman.

The Deuce is Back with a New Trailer and a Time Jump
“It’s changed,” Emily Meade says in the new trailer for HBO’s The Deuce. “It’s not like how it was when we started. It’s like a free world.”
We all hope for something fresh when a TV series enters a new season, and The Deuce promises that from the start of its teaser for Season 2. While the show’s debut run took place during the ascent of the pornography industry in New York in the early 1970s,
