McMillions Documentary Series Episodes 4, 5, and 6 Details

HBO previously released details on the first three episodes of the documentary series, McMillions, and today they’ve unveiled plot descriptions for episodes four through six. The six-part series premiered on February 3, 2020, with new episodes arriving on Mondays at 10pm ET/PT.

The documentary series comes from writer/directors James Lee Hernandez and Brian Lazarte. Hernandez, Lazarte, Mark Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson, Nancy Abraham, Lisa Heller, and Archie Gips executive produce.

HBO offers this official synopsis of the series: “McMillions transports viewers back into the 1990s, before the scam’s revelation and the ensuing media coverage were overshadowed by the events of September 11th, 2001. Featuring archival footage of McDonald’s television commercials and actual FBI sting footage, alongside vivid interviews and dramatic recreations of events, the series weaves together a highly entertaining account of a daring scheme and its undoing.

Unraveling the twisted threads of the fast-food fraud, the story is told by the intrepid FBI agents determined to solve the case and the real-life characters for whom a winning ticket was too good to turn down and who took a bet that they could get away with stealing from Ronald McDonald.”



McMillions Episode Guide:

  • Episode 4 – Debut date: MONDAY, FEB. 24 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT)
    1998: A car accident lands Gennaro “Jerry” Colombo in the ICU, leading Jerome “Jerry” Jacobson to scout for new recruiters. Among those who join the operation are ex-con Andrew Glomb and Mormon real estate developer Dwight Baker, who convinces his foster son George Chandler to redeem a winning ticket. With “Operation: Final Answer” gaining speed, the FBI gathers intel on “Uncle Jerry’s” middlemen and ends up tailing Dwight to the airport, where they worry a family confrontation may turn violent.
    Directed by Brian Lazarte and James Lee Hernandez.
  • Episode 5 – Debut date: MONDAY, MARCH 2 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT)
    Focusing their attention on Dwight Baker, the FBI intercepts a call with “Uncle Jerry” that leads them to capture crucial evidence of a game piece exchange. With the latest Monopoly game drawing to an end, the FBI works overtime to launch a coordinated cross-country day of indictments, though a last-minute technical error threatens to upend their carefully-laid plans. As the conspiracy becomes front-page news and those charged deal with the fallout, questions remain about how Jerome “Jerry” Jacobson actually got ahold of the Monopoly game pieces and who was the person who tipped off the FBI with that initial phone call.
    Directed by Brian Lazarte and James Lee Hernandez.
  • Episode 6 (Series Finale) – Debut date: MONDAY, MARCH 9 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT)
    As the trial nears, many of the defendants take plea deals and cooperate with the government, but George Chandler and a handful of others decide to fight to prove their innocence. When a previously uncooperative Jerome “Jerry” Jacobson takes the stand, the remaining details of how he pulled off his scheme are disclosed. Almost twenty years later, new information is revealed, and those involved – from “winners”, to co-conspirators, to family members and government officials – reflect on what they learned, their regrets and the ripple effects that one man’s greed had on so many people nationwide.
    Directed by Brian Lazarte and James Lee Hernandez.

The cast is led by Ryan Eggold as Dr. Max Goodwin. Freema Agyeman plays Dr. Helen Sharpe, Janet Montgomery is Dr. Lauren Bloom, Jocko Sims is Dr. Floyd Reynolds, Anupam Kher plays Dr. Vijay Kapoor, and Tyler Labine is Dr. Iggy Frome.

The Series Plot, Courtesy of NBC:

“Inspired by the oldest public hospital in America, this unique medical drama follows the brilliant and charming Dr. Max Goodwin, the institution’s newest medical director who sets out to tear up the bureaucracy and provide exceptional care. How can he help? Well, the doctors and staff have heard this before.

Not taking ‘no’ for an answer, Dr. Goodwin must disrupt the status quo and prove he will stop at nothing to breathe new life into this understaffed, underfunded and underappreciated hospital — the only one in the world capable of treating Ebola patients, prisoners from Rikers and the President of the United States under one roof — and return it to the glory that put it on the map.”

Manifest Season 2 Episode 5 Recap: “Coordinated Flight”

Manifest Season 2 Episode 5

“I need to make amends, Courtney. I’m sorry,” says Zeke (Matt Long) to a woman from his past in season two episode five of NBC’s mystery drama, Manifest.

The episode begins with a flashback of Olive (Luna Blaise) and Grace (Athena Karkanis) spending the day at a carnival. Olive never gave up on the idea that her dad, brother, and aunt would return and asks Grace to have their fortunes told by a Tarot reader. Jump forward to present day and Olive’s helping set up for the next service at The Believers’ gathering. She’s talking to Isaiah (Olli Haaskivi) when three hooded figures begin to vandalize the church. Isaiah tries to stop them and gets beaten, so Olive sets off the fire alarm to scare them off and takes off running.

T.J. (Garrett Wareing) and Ben (Josh Dallas) work in his office on campus to try and figure out the peacock symbol and how it relates to the death date. Ben sees the story about the vandalism on the news and experiences another calling that tells him to “save her.”

A short while later, Grace calls him while driving with Cal (Jack Messina). While they’re talking, Grace and Cal are run off the road by a truck.

Meanwhile, Jared (J.R. Ramirez) is having breakfast at the bar where the bartender he’s started casually hooking up with works. He gets a little grief from her ne’er-do-well younger brother about being around so much.

Olive talks to Adrian (Jared Grimes) about the vandalism and asks him to leave her out of it because her parents don’t know she’s a member. Adrian suggests she stop worrying about what her parents will say or think so much.

Michaela (Melissa Roxburgh) gets assigned to work the vandalism and assault case with her new partner, Drea Mikami (Ellen Tamaki). They question Isaiah but he doesn’t give them much information, claiming it’s not his place to judge others and he believes in forgiveness, not punishment. Michaela tries to talk to Adrian about Isaiah not cooperating or helping and he blows her off.

Ben and Grace head to the hospital to get checked out. They learn the baby they’re going to have is a girl, however, the doctor wants to run a few more tests to make sure she’s okay. Grace tells Ben she thinks his calling to “save her” might be about the baby.

Zeke attends a support group meeting and is told he needs to start making amends to those he hurt when he was an addict.

Michaela arrives at the hospital to find out how Grace and the baby are after the accident. Ben tells her Grace and Cal are fine but the doctor wants to run a few more tests on the baby just to make sure. He also tells her about his new calling. Ben asks Michaela to send him all the reports of attacks against passengers of Flight 828 to see if he can find a pattern.

Michaela goes to the precinct and Drea has found a piece of evidence showing a witness to the hooded figures fleeing the scene of the vandalism of the church. They pick him up for questioning.

Olive shows up at the hospital with T.J. to find out how everyone is and is told she’s going to have a baby sister.

Michaela sends Ben the cases he asks for and has an awkward conversation with Jared about her throwing him under the bus in court. She tells him that she and Ben believe the passengers of 828 are being targeted by extremists and he counters by saying it’s all in her head, which ticks her off.

Shortly thereafter, Michaela and Drea question the witness about what he saw when the hooded guys ran by him. He acts suspicious and says he wasn’t involved in vandalizing the church.

Zeke meets up with a woman from his past named Courtney (Danielle Burgess) and apologizes to her. She’s upset he just disappeared on her and is not impressed he’s back in recovery.

Ben and T.J. discover the extremists, whom they call Xers, have been coordinating attacks against the passengers of 828. It seems the church being vandalized and Grace’s accident are connected after all. Later, the doctor assures Ben and Grace the baby is okay but Grace needs to take it much easier from now on.

Olive heads over to see Michaela at the precinct and confesses she was at the church and saw the hooded men. She says she’s willing to look at a lineup but begs Michaela not to tell Ben and Grace. Michaela believes Olive should tell them and that they’re going to find out eventually. She thinks it will be better if Olive tells them herself.

Olive picks out #2 in the line-up…the witness Michaela and Drea were questioning. Michaela interrogates him and warns that if he doesn’t cooperate, he’s looking at some serious time – not just assault and vandalism but a conspiracy charge. He tells her about a warehouse where the other two hooded men hang out.

Over Ben’s house, Olive tells Grace and Ben about being the witness and being a Believer. They argue and things get heated between Olive and her parents. Ben tells her Adrian is a con man and is profiting by putting the passengers of 828 in danger. Olive storms off not wanting to listen.

Michaela and Drea raid the warehouse with an army of police backing them up. When they get there and break down the doors, the warehouse is deserted. But it’s obvious people were recently there. Michaela tells Drea to test the paint of one of the trucks parked outside, believing it was the one that rammed Grace’s car.

Jared is back at the bar and the bartender’s brother thanks him for the heads up about the raid. His friends appreciated the warning and now the brother wants Jared to meet one of them. Jared agrees to meet him saying, “Any friend of yours is a friend of mine.”

Ben and Grace talk about Olive, and Grace notices the compass Michaela was given in the last episode. She sees it has the same design on it as the Tarot card the fortune-teller gave her and Olive that day at the carnival. Ben and Grace again believe this is proof everything is connected. A little later Ben realizes that his calling “save her” means Olive.

At Michaela’s, she and Zeke are about to have dinner when there’s a knock on the door. They answer it and it’s Courtney who apologizes and says she had nowhere else to go. Michaela introduces herself not sure who Courtney is and Courtney tells her that she’s Zeke’s wife.

The last scene shows a hooded figure coming up behind Adrian at his church as he’s cleaning up. The hooded person shoves him up against a wall. It’s then revealed Ben’s the mysterious figure when he issues a warning, “Stay away from my daughter.”




Prodigal Son Season 1 Episode 14 Photos: Preview of “Eye of the Needle”

Jessica’s still dealing with a blackmailer in Fox’s Prodigal Son season one episode 14. “Eye of the Needle” will air on Monday, February 10, 2020 at 9pm ET/PT.

Michael Sheen stars as convicted serial killer Dr. Martin Whitly. Tom Payne plays Dr. Whitly’s conflicted son, Malcolm Bright. The cast also includes Bellamy Young as Jessica Whitly, Lou Diamond Phillips as Gil Arroyo, Halston Sage as Ainsley Whitly, Aurora Perrineau as Dani Powell, Frank Harts as JT Tarmel, and Keiko Agena as Edrisa Tanaka.

“Eye of the Needle” Plot: Jessica continues to search for more information on the “Girl in the Box,” but is confronted by the “Carousel Killer,” who has a very public vendetta against the Whitlys. While the NYPD investigates families tied to Martin’s victims, it’s ultimately up to Malcolm and Jessica to track down the tip-line caller – turned killer – who is blackmailing her.

Meanwhile, Ainsley receives a big promotion at work, but quickly realizes she may never escape the high demand for serial killer reports.



Season One Details:

“Malcolm Bright (Payne) has a gift. He knows how killers think and how their minds work. Why? Back in the 1990s, his father was one of the worst, a notorious serial killer called ‘The Surgeon.’ So it makes sense Bright is the best criminal psychologist around; murder is the family business.

He will use his twisted genius to help the NYPD solve crimes and stop killers, all while dealing with a manipulative mother, annoyingly normal sister, a homicidal father still looking to bond with his prodigal son, and his own constantly evolving neuroses.

Meet the happy family. Dr. Martin Whitly (Sheen) is intelligent, wealthy, charismatic and also happens to be a predatory sociopath who killed at least 23 people. Bright’s mother, Jessica Whitly (Young), an elegant and WASPy New Yorker, wields sarcasm like a samurai sword and has an opinion on every aspect of Bright’s life.

Perhaps Bright’s only ally is his sister, Ainsley Whitley (Sage), a TV journalist who wishes her brother would “take a break from murder” and have a normal life.

Unfortunately for his sister, the only way Bright feels normal is by solving cases with the help of his longtime mentor, NYPD Detective Gil Arroyo (Phillips). Arroyo’s one of the best detectives around, and he expects no less from his team – Detective Dani Powell (Perrineau), a headstrong no-nonsense cop who quickly becomes impressed with Bright’s work; and Detective JT Tarmel (Harts), a born-and-bred New Yorker who questions whether Bright is a psychopath himself.

So much for normal.”

It’s baby time for Izzy on CBS’s Bull season four episode 14, “Quid Pro Quo.” Episode 14 was directed by Bethany Rooney from a script by Pamela Wechsler and will air on Monday, February 10, 2020 at 10pm ET/PT.

The cast is led by Michael Weatherly as Dr. Jason Bull, Freddy Rodriguez as Benny Colón, Geneva Carr as Marissa Morgan, Jamie Lee Kirchner as Danny James, Christopher Jackson as Chunk Palmer, and MacKenzie Meehan as Taylor Rentzel.

Yara Martinez continues her recurring guest-starring role as Isabella “Izzy” Colón. The guest cast also includes Babak Tafti, Rebecca Wisocky, Dennis Boutsikaris, Daren Donofrio, Gabrielle Lee, and Barbara Garrick. Michael Ford, Jasmine Rush, and Angela Jeanneau also guest star in episode 14.

“Quid Pro Quo” Plot – Bull is hired by a doctor, Samir Shadid (Babak Tafti), who’s accused by the Manhattan U.S. attorney of bribing his way into college, just as Bull’s ex-wife, Isabella (Yara Martinez), is due to give birth. As Bull waits for Izzy to go into labor, he contends with the trial’s national news, due to its connection to a high-profile college admissions conspiracy case.



Bull Series Details, Courtesy of CBS:

Bull stars Michael Weatherly as Dr. Jason Bull in a drama inspired by the early career of Dr. Phil McGraw, the founder of one of the most prolific trial-consulting firms of all time. Brilliant, brash and charming, Dr. Bull is the ultimate puppet master as he combines psychology, human intuition and high-tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses and the accused tick. His personal life proves harder to manage as he tries to live a healthier lifestyle following a heart attack and learns he is expecting a child with his ex-wife.

Bull employs an enviable team of experts at Trial Analysis Corporation to shape successful narratives down to the very last detail. This includes his quick-witted former brother-in-law, Benny Colón, a lawyer who acts as defense attorney in the company’s mock trials; Marissa Morgan, a neurolinguistics expert from the Department of Homeland Security who monitors shifting jury reactions in real-time for Bull; former NYPD detective Danny James, the firm’s tough but relatable investigator; Taylor Rentzel, a working mother and former colleague of Marissa’s who is an expert in coding and computer hacking; and Chunk Palmer, a former all-American lineman and stylist-turned-law student who helps clients prepare their look and testimony for trial.

In high-stakes trials, Bull’s combination of remarkable insight into human nature, three Ph.D.’s and a top-notch staff creates winning strategies that tip the scales of justice in his clients’ favor.

‘Hamilton’ Film Guaranteed Not to Be Another ‘Cats’ Spectacle

Hamilton Film

How can we be certain Disney won’t do to Hamilton what Universal Pictures did to Cats? Theatre fans feeling leery about trusting Hollywood after screening Cats can rest assured the same fate won’t befall Hamilton. Why? Because Disney’s Hamilton is actually a film of the original Broadway production starring the original Broadway cast.

“We are thrilled for fans of the show, and new audiences across the world, to experience what it was like on stage – and in the audience – when we shot this at The Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway in June of 2016. We wanted to give everyone the same seat, which is what this film can provide,” said director/producer Thomas Kail.

Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jeffrey Silver are also producers. Disney’s targeting an October 15, 2021 theatrical release in the United States and Canada.

“Lin-Manuel Miranda created an unforgettable theater experience and a true cultural phenomenon, and it was for good reason that Hamilton was hailed as an astonishing work of art. All who saw it with the original cast will never forget that singular experience,” said Robert A. Iger, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, The Walt Disney Company. “And we’re thrilled to have the opportunity to share this same Broadway experience with millions of people around the world.”

According to Disney, Hamilton‘s original Broadway cast members who will be appearing in the film include Tony Award winners Lin-Manuel Miranda as Alexander Hamilton, Daveed Diggs as Marquis de Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson, Renée Elise Goldsberry as Angelica Schuyler, and Leslie Odom, Jr. as Aaron Burr. Christopher Jackson is George Washington, Jonathan Groff is King George, Phillipa Soo is Eliza Hamilton, and Jasmine Cephas Jones is Peggy Schuyler/Maria Reynolds. Okieriete Onaodowan plays Hercules Mulligan/James Madison and Anthony Ramos is John Laurens/Philip Hamilton.

Carleigh Bettiol, Ariana DeBose, Hope Easterbrook, Sydney James Harcourt, Sasha Hutchings, Thayne Jasperson, Elizabeth Judd, Jon Rua, Austin Smith, Seth Stewart, and Ephraim Sykes are also featured in the film.



“I fell in love with musical storytelling growing up with the legendary Howard Ashman-Alan Menken Disney collaborations – The Little Mermaid, Beauty and The Beast, Aladdin,” said Lin-Manuel Miranda. “I’m so proud of what Tommy Kail has been able to capture in this filmed version of Hamilton – a live theatrical experience that feels just as immediate in your local movie theater. We’re excited to partner with Disney to bring the original Broadway company of Hamilton to the largest audience possible.”

Hamilton Film Details, Per Disney:

“The film of the original Broadway cast performing Hamilton is a leap forward in the art of ‘live capture.’ This movie transports its audience into the world of the Broadway show in a uniquely intimate way.

Details on Season 1, Courtesy of USA Network:

Dare Me is an unflinching exploration of teen angst, jealousy, loyalty and the dynamics of power in a small Midwestern town.

Peering behind the all-American facade, the series dives into the cutthroat world of competitive high school cheerleading. It follows the fraught relationship between two best friends (Guardiola and Kelly) after a new coach (Fitzgerald) arrives to bring their team to prominence. While the girls’ friendship is put to the test, their young lives are changed forever when a shocking crime rocks their quiet rust belt town.

Part coming-of-age story, part sports drama, part murder mystery, Dare Me exposes the physical and psychological extremes that some young women are willing to endure in order to get ahead.”
