CBS’s half-hour comedy Life in Pieces will return to the network’s primetime lineup on April 18, 2019 at 8:30pm ET/PT. The fourth season of the ensemble comedy will then move to its regular Thursdays at 9:30pm ET/PT time slot the following week.
Season three was ranked first among Thursday shows airing at 9:30pm. CBS also reports the series is in the top 10 among all comedies on broadcast television.
The popular comedy was created by Justin Adler, and Adler serves as an executive producer along with Aaron Kaplan, Jeff Morton and Barbie Adler. The series stars Dianne Wiest, James Brolin, Zoe Lister-Jones, Colin Hanks, Angelique Cabral, Thomas Sadoski, Betsy Brandt, Dan Bakkedahl, Niall Cunningham, Holly J. Barrett, Giselle Eisenberg, Hunter King, and Ana Sophia Heger.
The Plot:
“Life in Pieces is a comedy about one big happy family and their sometimes awkward, often hilarious and ultimately beautiful milestone moments as told by its various members. Of the three siblings, middle child Matt has finally married his true love, Colleen, and they are determined to have a child of their own no matter what it takes. The coddled youngest brother, Greg, and his wife, Jen, are struggling to find the balance between work, raising their toddler and preparing for their second child. The eldest, Heather, and her husband, Tim, have their hands full with three children and daughter-in-law who all live with them.
Their parents are Joan, the family’s adoring matriarch who would do anything for her kids – as long as she agrees with it – and John, the gregarious patriarch who’s searching for ways to spend more time with his family. As the family’s lives unfold in four short stories each week, they try to savor these little pieces of time that flash by but stay with you forever, because these moments add up to what life’s all about.”

The untold true story of one of the most bizarre bank heists in history unfolds in Finding Steve McQueen starring Travis Fimmel (Vikings). Neither a documentary nor biopic on classic movie star Steven McQueen, this 2019 action thriller recounts the events leading up to and immediately after a daring 1972 bank heist.
In addition to Travis Fimmel, the cast includes Rachael Taylor (Jessica Jones), William Fichtner (Mom), Lily Rabe (American Horror Story), Rhys Coiro (The Walking Dead), and Oscar winner Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland). Mark Steven Johnson (2003’s Daredevil) directed from a screenplay by Ken Hixon and Keith Sharon.
Finding Steve McQueen was produced by Andrea Iervolino, Alexandra Klim, Anthony Mastromauro, and Silvio Muraglia. The behind the scenes team includes costume designer Melissa Vargas, editors Julia Juaniz and Kathryn Himoff, production designer Kirk M. Petruccelli, visual effects supervisor Peter Nalli, and director of photography Jose David Montero.
“Finding Steve McQueen is an unbelievable true story about one of the most daring bank jobs of all time. But at its heart it’s a story about identity. Who we are versus who we want to be — and what happens when those worlds collide,” explains director Mark Steven Johnson. “The story is an interesting combination of drama, romance and broad comedy — the kind that started my career when I wrote Grumpy Old Men. It’s one of those fascinating footnotes in American History that deserves to be told. And with a crooked president in the White House and a scandal looming…it’s a story that has never been more relevant.”
Momentum Pictures will release the R-rated action film in theaters, digital, and On Demand on March 15, 2019.
The Plot:
Inspired by the true story of the biggest bank heist of all time, Harry Barber (Fimmel) recounts how in 1972 a gang of close-knit thieves from Youngstown, Ohio attempted to steal $30 Million in illegal campaign contributions from President Richard Nixon’s secret fund. But the plan quickly goes sideways, prompting the biggest manhunt in FBI history with more than 125 agents assigned to the case.
Sir Elton John and Taron Egerton took the stage for a duet of “Tiny Dancer” during the 27th annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party. Egerton stars in the much-anticipated musical fantasy Rocketman inspired by Elton John’s life and career, and it’s evident from the video of the impromptu performance that John’s supportive of the project and of Egerton.
Taron Egerton suggested the duet during the viewing party’s auction, and Sir Elton John willing sat at the piano as Egerton sang “Tiny Dancer.” John joined in on the chorus and the pair finished the song together.
Sir Elton John’s annual viewing party is held to raise funds to combat AIDS across the globe. This year’s party was held at the West Hollywood Park in Los Angeles and raised more than $6.3 million for the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
In addition to Taron Egerton (the Kingsman films), Rocketman stars Jamie Bell as Elton John’s writing partner Bernie Taupin. Bryce Dallas Howard plays Elton’s mother, Sheila Farebrother. Game of Thrones‘ Richard Madden is Elton’s first manager, John Reid. Tate Donovan is Doug Weston, Charlie Rowe is Ray Williams, Gemma Jones is Ivy, and Tom Bennett plays Fred.
Dexter Fletcher directed and Lee Hall wrote the screenplay. Fletcher previously directed Taron Egerton in Eddie the Eagle, the true story of unlikely Olympian Eddie Edwards. Fletcher also finished up the Oscar-winning musical biopic Bohemian Rhapsody after Bryan Singer and the studio parted ways.
Rocketman‘s behind the scenes team includes cinematographer George Richmond, production designer Marcus Rowland, costume designer Julian Day, with music by Matthew Margeson. Matthew Vaughn, David Furnish, Adam Bohling, and David Reid served as producers, and Sir Elton John, Steve Hamilton Shaw, Michael Gracey, Claudia Schiffer, and Brian Oliver executive produced.
Paramount Pictures has set a May 31, 2019 theatrical release date.
The Plot:
“Rocketman is an epic musical fantasy about the incredible human story of Elton John’s breakthrough years. The film follows the fantastical journey of transformation from shy piano prodigy Reginald Dwight into international superstar Elton John. This inspirational story – set to Elton John’s most beloved songs and performed by star Taron Egerton – tells the universally relatable story of how a small-town boy became one of the most iconic figures in pop culture.”
The CW’s Legacies season one episode 11 found the students of the Salvatore School invaded by worms. The gross bodysnatchers affected the students’ personalities, making them forget their inhibitions on the day of the annual talent show. And speaking of the talent show, the students were treated to musical numbers as well as a piece of spoken word poetry by Rafael that revealed his jealous over Hope and Landon’s relationship.
Meanwhile, Alaric and Emma ditched school – and their adult responsibilities – to barhop and make out. Fortunately for everybody, order was restored when it was discovered a zap of electricity caused the worms to flee their hosts.
Up next, season one episode 12 titled “There’s a Mummy on Main Street” and airing on February 28, 2019. The episode was directed by Julie Plec from a script by Marguerite MacIntyre and Sherman Payne.
The season one cast includes Danielle Rose Russell as Hope, Matthew Davis as Alaric Saltzman, Jenny Boyd as Lizzie Saltzman, Kaylee Bryant as Josie Saltzman, Demetrius Bridges as Dorian, and Quincy Fouse as Milton Greasley/MG. Aria Shahghasemi is Landon Kirby and Peyton Alex Smith plays Rafael Waithe.
The “There’s a Mummy on Main Street” Plot – SPRING BREAK ROAD TRIP — When the urn goes missing, Alaric (Davis), Hope (Russell), Josie (Bryant), Lizzie (Boyd), Kaleb (guest star Chris Lee), Dorian (guest star Demetrius Bridges) and Emma (guest star Karen David) hit the road to locate the artifact before the next Malivore creature arrives. Meanwhile, Lizzie takes aim at Hope for all the past spring breaks she’s ruined. Finally, the group bands together when a town-wide quarantine threatens to expose their supernatural identities.
The Season One Plot:
“For the last decade, the iconic heroes and villains of The Vampire Diaries and The Originals have captivated audiences worldwide. They left an enduring legacy of love and family in their wake, which continues in Legacies, a thrilling new drama that tells the story of the next generation of supernatural beings at The Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted. It’s here that Klaus Mikaelson’s daughter, 17-year-old Hope Mikaelson; Alaric Saltzman’s twins, Lizzie and Josie Saltzman ; and other young adults — including high-energy vampire MG, newly-triggered werewolf Rafael Waithe and the mysterious Landon Kirby — come of age in the most unconventional way possible, nurtured to be their best selves…in spite of their worst impulses.
Will these young witches, vampires and werewolves become the heroes they want to be — or the villains they were born to be? As they fight to protect their secret, their town of Mystic Falls and eventually the world, they will have to rely on ancient folklore and tales to learn how to battle their far-reaching enemies.”
Rami Malek accepts his Best Actors Oscar during the 2019 Academy Awards (ABC/Craig Sjodin)
The 2019 Oscars will be remembered for going hostless and nailing it, for finally recognizing Spike Lee with an Oscar win, for historic wins by black artists in a variety of categories, and for one of the most intimate, show-stopping performances of a Best Song nominee (by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper). It also saw Marvel’s Black Panther enter the record books as the studio’s first Oscar winner. The comic book-inspired film won Best Costume Design, Production Design, and Best Score Academy Awards. Ruth Carter became the first black woman to take home an Oscar in the Costume Design category, and Hannah Beachler is the first black Production Designer to win an Academy Award.
Alfonso Cuaron’s Roma was beat out by Green Book in the Best Picture category, but nevertheless his trophy shelf will need to be expanded after the 2019 Academy Awards. It will need to accommodate Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film, and Best Cinematography statuettes. Green Book pulled off the biggest shock of the night by being named Best Picture, something few saw coming. Green Book also took home Oscars in the Best Original Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor (Mahershala Ali) categories.
20th Century Fox’s Bohemian Rhapsody won four Oscars, topping the list of this year’s winners. Rami Malek was obviously moved as he accepted his Best Actor Oscar, noting he’s a first generation American who couldn’t have dreamed of this moment as a child. “I think about what it would have been like to tell little Bubba Rami that one day this might happen to him, and I think his curly-haired little mind would be blown. That kid was, he was struggling with his identity, trying to figure himself out. And I think to anyone struggling with theirs and trying to discover their voice, listen we made a film about a gay man, an immigrant, who lived his life just unapologetically himself. And the fact that I’m celebrating him and this story with you tonight is proof that we’re longing for stories like this,” said Malek. “I am the son of immigrants from Egypt. I’m a first generation American and part of my story is being written right now and I could not be more grateful to each and every one of you, and everyone who believed in me for this moment. It is something I will treasure for the rest of my life.”
The music-driven biopic also won in the Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Editing categories.
Other standout moments from this year’s Academy Awards include an important, timely speech by Javier Bardem as he introduced Best Picture nominee Roma and Olivia Colman gaining thousands of new fans with a heartfelt, hysterical and yet moving Best Actress acceptance speech which ended with her blowing a kiss to Lady Gaga. And while we’re talking about Colman’s competitor in the Best Actress category, Lady Gaga didn’t take home that Oscar but she did earn one for “Shallow” from A Star is Born.
Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, and Amy Poehler were the first presenters to take the stage, joking about not being the award show’s hosts while doing the high speed version of jokes featuring topics a host would normally touch upon. On the music front, Queen with Adam Lambert opened the show with a rousing version of “We are The Champions,” Jennifer Hudson belted out “I’ll Fight” from RBG, and Bette Midler took to the Oscar stage to sing “The Place Where the Lost Things Go” from Mary Poppins Returns.

HBO’s teasing viewers with new footage from some of the shows that will make up their 2019 primetime lineup. The new 2019 teaser will air just prior to the finale of True Detective season three, but for those who can’t wait the network has made it available online a few hours early.
Among the show’s debuting new footage in the nearly two-minute teaser are Barry season two, Big Little Lies season two, and Succession season two. Barry‘s new season starring Bill Hader and Henry Winkler arrives on March 31st while season two of Big Little Lies with series newcomer Oscar-winner Meryl Streep will premiere in June. Succession‘s ensemble cast reassembled for the new season which doesn’t yet have a confirmed premiere date.
Season three of The Deuce with Maggie Gyllenhaal shows off new footage as does the much-anticipated final season of Game of Thrones. Arya (Maisie Williams) breaks into a slow smile at what we can assume is the appearance of a dragon. The trailer ends with the tagline “It all starts here” as we see a clip of the Wall falling.
Primetime mini-series Catherine the Great starring Helen Mirren in the title role can also be seen showing off new clips in the trailer. The feature film based on cancelled-too-soon series Deadwood, the five-part mini-series Chernobyl, and the high school drama Euphoria are also included with new footage.
HBO’s 2019 preview features new video from Los Espookys premiering in June, His Dark Materials based on the novels by Philip Pullman, and the television series adaptation of one of the greatest graphic novels in history, Watchmen. The comedy series The Righteous Gemstones and Mrs. Fletcher, plus new dramas Gentleman Jack and Years and Years revealed very short blink-and-you’ll-miss-them clips.
The network’s preview also hypes up the new seasons of 2 Dope Queens, Ballers, Divorce, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, Real Sports, Real Time with Bill Maher, Room 104, Silicon Valley, and Veep.

Hiccup and his best beastie friend Toothless led the charge at the box office for the February 22nd through 24th weekend. The third film of the DreamWorks Animation franchise, How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World not only secured its spot at the top of the box office chart with a $55 million opening weekend, it also scored the biggest first weekend of the series.
The first How to Train Your Dragon debuted in theaters on March 26, 2010 and rang up $43 million domestically over its opening weekend. The critically acclaimed animated comedy grossed $494 million worldwide before exiting theaters. The second film, How to Train Your Dragon 2, premiered on June 13, 2014 and topped the original film’s opening weekend by grossing $49 million domestically. How to Train Your Dragon 2 also finished in front of the first film overall in theaters with a $621 million worldwide box office run.
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World was not only a hit with audiences, it also won over critics. The PG-rated family-friendly film is currently sitting at 92% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.
The first Dragon film should retain its hold on the top spot at the box office over the March 1-3, 2019 weekend. The only films set to open in wide release are the adult thriller Greta and Tyler Perry’s A Madea Family Funeral, and neither film targets the younger How to Train Your Dragon audience.
The How to Train your Dragon: The Hidden World Plot:
“From DreamWorks Animation comes a surprising tale about growing up, finding the courage to face the unknown…and how nothing can ever train you to let go. What began as an unlikely friendship between an adolescent Viking and a fearsome Night Fury dragon has become an epic adventure spanning their lives. Welcome to the most astonishing chapter of one of the most beloved animated franchises in film history: How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.
Now chief and ruler of Berk alongside Astrid, Hiccup has created a gloriously chaotic dragon utopia. When the sudden appearance of female Light Fury coincides with the darkest threat their village has ever faced, Hiccup and Toothless must leave the only home they’ve known and journey to a hidden world thought only to exist in myth. As their true destines are revealed, dragon and rider will fight together—to the very ends of the Earth—to protect everything they’ve grown to treasure.”
Barry Jenkins’ critically acclaimed drama If Beale Street Could Talk was the big winner at the 2019 Film Independent Spirit Awards. The drama, which didn’t earn Oscar nominations in either the Best Film or Best Director categories, picked up the Best Feature, Best Director and Best Supporting Female (Regina King) awards. Following close behind was Can You Ever Forgive Me? with two wins: Best Supporting Male (Richard E. Grant) and Best Screenplay (Nicole Holofcener and Jeff Whitty).
We the Animals went into the Spirit Awards with the most nominations, however it was shut out in all five of the categories in which it was nominated. Roma, the favorite to win the Best Picture Oscar, wasn’t nominated for a Best Film Spirit Award but it did win in the Best International Film category.
The annual awards honor the best in independent films with a much less formal ceremony than the glitzy Oscars. The Spirit Awards are held in a tent on the beach in Santa Monica the day prior to the Academy Awards. This year’s ceremony was hosted by Legion‘s Aubrey Plaza.
