From the minute she enters the world, she has a mother who hates her and strangers trying to kill her. I'm actually still trying to make sense of the episode's prologue: Set in 1997, a random Circuit City employee gets a cryptic message on his Windows 95 PC ordering him to kill Jane, who is less than a day old, before she grows up into a major threat.
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.
We don't know when the second season will begin and we're not being coy. According to Tierney, season two will begin production in August. Asked what the upcoming second outing might entail, G.K. and Chang said they aren't exactly sure of the plot yet.
The teaser trailers reveal a young couple, played by Charles Melton and Cailee Spaeny, who both work at a country club. The two accidentally witness a physical fight between their boss and his wife (Oscar Isaac and Carrie Mulligan). Mulligan throws and breaks something fragile, and Isaac yells "Stop! Stop it!" while brandishing a golf club at her.
We don't need proof, says one short-seller out for the kill, because we finally have a good story to tell. Cooked books can be explained as simply a misalignment between the velocity of my vision and the velocity of regulation, according to the slippery fintech entrepreneur Whitney Halberstram. The gap in between is where smart people have always made money.
The second season of is finally here, and it is leaving the courtroom behind. The trailer for season two dropped today, teasing a corporate-themed version. This one follows a worker named Anthony Norman, who is hired to help with a company's retreat, not realizing he is on a TV show.
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.
To everything, there is a season, and for a long time in television history, every show had its own season. Some were fall shows, some were spring shows, and either way, you could count on a brand-new batch of episodes every year. But with the larger budgets and production values of streaming, years between seasons (and no particular rhythm to their releases) has become the norm.
The Paramount+ series stars Thornton as Tommy Norris, with Thornton's exact voice and wit embedded into the show's drama of a landman making deals for drilling rights. But after Tommy is fired near the end of season 2 and forced to start his own oil company, many fans seemed to take the late-season twist to mean that Thornton was leaving the show as well. He's not, of coursebut don't just take it from me. You can hear the confirmation from Thornton himself. I'm signed up for like five years or something, the actor told Esquire ahead of the finale.
It is niche, says Down. We don't write to any kind of brief. We don't write what we think is going to be interesting to other people or commercial. For every 10 people that don't understand a reference or the thing we're trying to do with the costume or the subtle hint we're making about someone's class, there'll be one person that gets it.
In many serialized dramas, the climax of a given season lands in the penultimate episode; think of the dramatic battles and major character deaths of Game of Thrones or, further back, The Sopranos and The Wire. But Landman isn't like most dramas. Tonight's penultimate episode of season two feels like an anti-climax - not just a letdown generally, but the diametric opposite of a climax.
On February 11, reported Apple has acquired from its original production company Fifth Season for $70 million. This means Severance is now Apple's exclusive intellectual property, rather than a licensed show made by an outside partner. Deadline goes into the weeds of how and why it all happened-including deep dives into Apple's pay structures-but the short version is that the show was too expensive for Fifth Season to shoulder by itself.
Idris Elba returns as professional negotiator Sam Nelson in Hijack season 2. But this time, things may have taken an unexpected turn. On January 14, the second season of Hijack premieres on Apple TV. Elba once again plays Sam Nelson, whose exploits on Kingdom Twenty-Nine have become legend. Now, Sam finds himself at the center of a totally different hijack in the London Underground, with a train transporting 200 commuters under immediate threat.
Jenny G. Zhang: After a series premiere that seemed to be received pretty well by viewers-although the diarrhea smash cut was certainly divisive-we open the second episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms with another jump scare: big dong alert, courtesy of Ser Arlan of Pennytree, who is truly packing the heat. (While he is probably not a Best or a Worst Person in Westeros this week, he certainly deserves some kind of title.)
