Via tentative rebel student Agnes Mackenzie, the drama meticulously illustrates the ways disempowered people hoard what little agency they have in Gilead's oppressive environment.

Cal and I are very similar in that we know what it's like to lead a double life. I've had experience with that with my battle with drugs and alcohol. I know what it is like to not have my insides match my outside.

So much of the White House has always been a kind of symbolic construction. All the tackiness-I find it endearing. The bald artifice, the kind of striver-ness of it-it's like rooting for early Bethenny.

Last October, PayPal an integration with OpenAI so that ChatGPT users could transact within the app. Apparently, PayPal is now ready to take that idea to other retailer chatbots. Of course, now that ChatGPT is making its foray into advertising , other LLMs and chatbots are bound to follow suit, if they haven't already done so. Walmart, for instance, rolled out ads in its generative AI agent Sparky earlier this month.

In the fourth season of Industry, everyone has a story to sell: a neutered fund or loveless marriage, shamed husbands, a life aimless after retirement, a payment-processing firm hampered by its ties to porn and sex work. These labels seem to indicate mistaken priorities or misplaced trust. But they are just narratives to be refined or redefined. Everything is up for grabs if you tell the right story.

When our days are full of so many demands, no wonder we feel hyped up and anxious by the time the kids are in bed.

The television show I'm most enjoying right now: There is a Hollywood story in David Niven's autobiography Bring on the Empty Horses, in which the screenwriter Charles MacArthur asks Charlie Chaplin how to make the comic pratfall scene of a person slipping on a banana peel new again. Chaplin suggests that MacArthur start with a lady walking down the street and cut to a shot of the banana peel on the sidewalk, which the lady steps over-right before she falls down a manhole.

Last week, I caught myself starting The Office for what must be the fifteenth time. My partner walked in, saw Jim pranking Dwight with the stapler in Jell-O, and just shook his head. "Again?" he asked. And honestly? I couldn't explain why I kept going back to the same show when there's literally endless content available at my fingertips. But here's the thing: I'm not alone in this.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, pickup order to lack of renewal. Here we bid farewell to the canceled shows of 2026. Less than a month into the year (and last lunar year not even over) and shows are already starting to drop. This post will serve as living tribute to the TV we're going to miss in 2027. Don't cry because they're over, smile because hopefully there are some sort of residuals in place for the workers.
