The stakes in season three are higher and more intense than ever.

Meanwhile, Fiona tries to manage the aftermath of her deportation to the Philippines while Thony explores drastic measures to get her back home as well as search for answers regarding Arman. While Thony is relieved that Luca’s medical issues have improved, he and Thony face a new threat that may keep them apart, while Chris makes a careless decision to help his mother Fiona but may jeopardize their futures as well as that of Jaz’s.
As Thony’s journey continues to unfold, she is completely alone. Her world is turned upside down as she fights to protect her family, forcing her to take steps that deepen a new association with a dangerous Cartel.

Max’s Pretty Little Liars: Summer School is off to a creepy start. We’ve learned about Angela and A’s mother – dubbed Bloody Rose Waters – and that two teens were murdered inside Rose’s cabin. Plus, there have been a spate of other recent deaths among people the BFFs know. And that was just the first two episodes.
Episode three, “Sweet Sixteen,” opens with Mouse (Malia Pyles) watching a video of a reenactment of Rose and Archie Waters on Spooky Spaghetti. When the video ends, Mouse discovers someone’s posted their phone numbers under their pictures on the site.
Thursday
Mouse and the other girls compare notes and confirm they all received calls the night before from unknown numbers. Mouse reveals that someone has posted their phone numbers online. Which, of course, leads to the BFFs confessing they each gave out their numbers, which they weren’t supposed to do.
Mouse changes the subject and reminds the group that her birthday is coming up and that it’s her Sweet 16. The girls downplay it, suggesting it’s not a good idea to go all out this year.
Mouse visits Dr. Sullivan (Annabeth Gish) and brings up that she’s concerned about her grandmother’s memory problems. She’s also hurt that her friends don’t want to have a birthday party for her, confessing she’s scared they don’t really like her. Dr. Sullivan assures her that’s not the case.
Cue the girls talking about Mouse’s surprise birthday party.
Pastor Malachi lets the church patrons know Sandy will be joining her parents in Cape Cod for the summer, so she won’t be in the play. (Odd, considering we witnessed her being murdered in episode two.) Kelly (Mallory Bechtel) volunteers to take over Sandy’s role in the play.
Mrs. Beasley tasks Kelly and her friends with passing out flyers about the church around town.
Tabby’s (Chandler Kinney) mom comes home to find Christian (Noah Alexander Gerry) on her couch and wants to know who the hell he is. Tabby explains they work together.
Imogen (Bailee Madison) has new eye candy to look at when her co-worker Johnny (Antonio Cipriano) arrives at work shirtless and riding a bike.
Noa (Maia Reficco) asks Jen (Ava Capri) if she gave her number to anyone. Jen assures her she has not. The manager at the pizza place says the cash register is short $20 and wants Noa and Jen to empty their pockets. Jen becomes combative and Noa counts the money herself and claims he counted it wrong.
The girls walk outside, and Jen thanks Noa for helping her out with their manager. Noa is pissed because she slipped in her own tip money to cover it. Jen doesn’t seem to care.
Kelly stops by the ice cream shop to leave flyers for Redemption House but seems hesitant when she discovers Imogen works there. Imogen’s genuinely happy to see Kelly and invites her to Mouse’s secret birthday party at the roller rink.
Christian asks Tabby about her favorite vampire movie and when she confesses that she’s never seen his favorite, he invites her over to watch it at his place. She takes him up on the invitation and very hesitantly follows him into his basement, He’s got an impressive, albeit creepy, collection of horror movie stuff, most of which he made. Tabby feels horrified when she sees an A mask in one of his cabinets. Christian tries to explain, but she is out of there before he can say anything.
The guys are still giving Faran (Zaria) a hard time at the pool because she made captain. In response, she makes them do planks. Later, Henry (Ben Cook) tells Faran what he is going to be doing in the Redemption House play. Without being asked for his opinion, Henry suggests Faran should lighten up when it comes to the boys at her work.
Imogen figures out Johnny’s a player when she sees him flirting with multiple girls. When she tries to give one of the girls a heads up, the girl reacts by cussing at her and then Johnny. It turns out Johnny has no shame in his game or his ego and tells Imogen not to be such a stuck-up prude.
That night, Tabby and Imogen discuss their day over pints of ice cream. Imogen thinks Tabby did the right thing with Christian. And she spills the tea about her good-looking co-worker, Johnny.

Friday
The girls are going over Mouse’s surprise party plans but have to stop when Mouse shows up. She has good news to share, for once. Spooky Spaghetti took down their photos and numbers. Mouse thinks they can do something for her birthday now but she’s met with a bunch of excuses why they can’t.
Imogen apologizes to Johnny and is surprised when he also apologizes for being insensitive. Johnny swears that anything he would do with any of those girls would be consensual. Plus, he confesses he googled her.
Apologies are going around because now it’s Christian and Tabby’s turns to apologize to each other. Christian claims he made those masks before he met her. Tabby wonders if he posted her number online, and he swears he didn’t. Tabby seems to believe him and goes into more detail about what happened to her. She also invites him to Mouse’s party.
Faran takes Henry’s advice, and with Greg and a few other lifeguards, she plays a prank on one of the guys who fell asleep on the job.
And speaking of being tired, Imogen is exhausted at work. Johnny suggests she take a nap in the back office, and she takes him up on it.
Imogen wakes up and tells Johnny she keeps having creepy dreams about Bloody Rose Waters and her mom. She even confesses that he was in her dream too. Imogen claims she saw Rose outside by the dumpster and wants to go outside to check if she is actually there – which she was. However, it turns out that she’s just having a nightmare and none of this happened.
Imogen awkwardly invites Johnny to Mouse’s birthday party.
Mouse complains to Ash (Jordan Gonzalez) about her moms being gone and her friends being checked out. Ash feels really sorry for his girlfriend and spills the beans. He’s not supposed to say anything, but he can’t stop himself from telling her the girls are throwing her a surprise party.
Noa tries to give Jen the silent treatment, but after some gross customers don’t tip Jen, Noa gets involved and gets the money for her.
Faran rescues a girl in the pool after the guy who was supposed to be in the lifeguard chair wasn’t where he was supposed to be. She fires him on the spot.
Faran tells Henry about what happened at the pool and then admits that she was cleared to dance weeks ago. Henry’s stunned and needs time to wrap his head around it.

Mouse’s grandmother, Lola, appears to be in on the surprise and admits that she has been assigned the job of driving Mouse to the party. Meanwhile, all of Mouse’s friends are at the roller rink decked out in vintage wear and ready to party. Even Kelly and Greg show up. So do Johnny and Jen.
However, Lola doesn’t take Mouse to her party but instead drops her off at an abandoned restaurant that looks similar to a Chuck E. Cheese. It’s eerily quiet when Mouse walks in and spots a cake, a rose, and a card that says Happy Birthday, Mouse. Inside it reads: “This is your birthday test. A final girl must escape any death trap. You hide, I seek.”
Mouse is locked inside and as she runs to escape, she sees Bloody Rose Waters.
The girls are having the time of their lives, and Greg cracks a joke that maybe Jen and Noa were lesbian lovers in juvie.
Ash arrives at Mouse’s place to pick her up and Lola’s confused. She informs him she dropped her off already after getting a call from one of Mouse’s friends.
And now things are rapidly escalating as episode three ends. Mouse isn’t just running from Bloody Rose Waters; she’s trying to escape the building which is now engulfed in flames.
After Ash tells the girls what’s going on, they leave the party to look for Mouse. They make it to the burning restaurant just as Mouse emerges from the smoke and flames. They wonder what happened and Mouse says, “Bloody Rose. It started again.”

Shōgun set FX viewership records, becoming the network’s most-watched series over its first nine weeks. Given the show’s popularity, it comes as no surprise that FX, Hulu, and the James Clavell estate are moving forward on two additional seasons of the critically acclaimed drama.
FX hasn’t confirmed when production will begin or announced a target launch date for Shogun season two. A writers’ room is expected to open this summer. Series co-creators, executive producers, and writers Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo are back on board along with executive producer Michaela Clavell and series star and producer Hiroyuki Sanada.
“Shōgun, an original adaptation of James Clavell’s bestselling novel, is set in Japan in the year 1600 at the dawn of a century-defining civil war. Producer Hiroyuki Sanada stars as Lord Yoshii Toranaga who is fighting for his life as his enemies on the Council of Regents unite against him. When a mysterious European ship is found marooned in a nearby fishing village, its English pilot, John Blackthorne (Cosmo Jarvis), comes bearing secrets that could help Toranaga tip the scales of power and devastate the formidable influence of Blackthorne’s own enemies — the Jesuit priests and Portuguese merchants,” reads FX’s synopsis. “Toranaga’s and Blackthorne’s fates become inextricably tied to their translator, Toda Mariko (Anna Sawai), a mysterious Christian noblewoman and the last of a disgraced line. While serving her lord amidst this fraught political landscape, Mariko must reconcile her newfound companionship with Blackthorne, her commitment to the faith that saved her, and her duty to her late father.”
Shogun season one premiered on February 27, 2024 and concluded its 10 episode run on April 23rd.
The talented season one ensemble includes Tadanobu Asano as Kashigi Yabushige, a notorious backstabber and close ally of Toranaga; Hiroto Kanai as Kashigi Omi, the young leader of the fishing village where Blackthorne’s ship was found; Takehiro Hira as Ishido Kazunari, a powerful bureaucrat who is Toranaga’s chief rival; and Moeka Hoshi as Usami Fuji, a widow who must find new purpose amidst her lord’s fight. Tokuma Nishioka plays Toda Hiromatsu, Toranaga’s trusted general and closest friend; Shinnosuke Abe is Toda Hirokatsu (Buntaro), Mariko’s jealous husband; and Yuki Kura is Yoshii Nagakado, the brash son of Toranaga with a strong desire to prove himself.
Shogun‘s season one cast also includes Yuka Kouri as Kiku, a courtesan renowned for her artistry throughout Japan, and Fumi Nikaido as Ochiba no Kata, the revered mother of the heir who will stop at nothing to put an end to Toranaga and his threat to her son’s power.
The Never Let Go trailer introduces a world in which you must stay connected to a rope or risk death. Evil is always lurking close by, now that the world has ended. And if you let go of the rope, then evil can take you.
Oscar-winner Halle Berry stars as the mom of twins struggling to keep her family safe. Percy Daggs IV and Anthony B. Jenkins star as the twins.
“From visionary director Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes) and the creative minds behind Stranger Things and Arrival comes Never Let Go. In this new psychological thriller/horror, as an Evil takes over the world beyond their front doorstep, the only protection for a mother, played by Academy Award winner Halle Berry, and her twin sons is their house and their family’s protective bond,” reads Lionsgate’s synopsis. “Needing to stay connected at all times – even tethering themselves with ropes – they cling to one another, urging each other to never let go. But when one of the boys questions if the evil is real, the ties that bind them together are severed, triggering a terrifying fight for survival.”

Never Let Go will open in theaters on September 27, 2024.
HBO’s Moviepass, Moviecrash documentary explores the meteoric rise and surprisingly quick demise of Moviepass. The movie ticketing program allowed moviegoers to subscribe to a service that was less expensive than purchasing individual film tickets. Ultimately, the business model was unsustainable.
“In a span of eight years, MoviePass went from being the fastest-growing subscription service since Spotify to total bankruptcy, losing over $150 million in 2017 alone,” reads HBO’s synopsis. “Moviepass, Moviecrash chronicles the company’s beginnings as an innovative movie ticketing model beloved by cinema-goers, exploring the visionary mission of its entrepreneur co-founders, its impressive early successes, and its precipitous downfall caused by mismanagement and corporate greed.
MoviePass was a movie lover’s dream, offering access to movie theater tickets at a discounted monthly subscription rate. In 2017, with a ‘too good to be true’ promotional deal of $9.95 a month, subscriptions exploded, the company’s stock soared, and investors rushed to get in on the venture. However, the co-founders, who had built the pop culture phenomenon from scratch, were cast aside and forced to watch from the sidelines as new executives seized control. A combination of extravagant and fraudulent spending with lavish parties at the Sundance Film Festival, Coachella, and the Cannes Film Festival, and a fundamentally unsustainable business model, led the company to shutter abruptly in 2019.”
The documentary features new interviews with Moviepass co-founders along with former CEO Mitch Lowe, former employees, investors, and subscribers. Industry analysts and Business Insider journalists also provide details on what happened and why the company failed.
Muta’Ali (HBO’s Yusuf Hawkins: Storm Over Brooklyn) directs and Mark Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson, Archie Gips, Jack Heller, Scott Veltri, Jevon Frank, and David Wendell produce. Executive producers include Muta’Ali, Jason Guerrasio, Joel Stonington, and HBO’s Nancy Abraham and Lisa Heller.
Moviepass, Moviecrash premieres on May 29, 2024.

“This show is based on the only good decision I ever made: falling for a nice Jewish boy. But I realized that being happy is way harder than being miserable (there’s nothing to complain about). So, I created this show based on all the ways that finding the right person can be so hard,” said series creator, co-showrunner, and executive producer Erin Foster. “Nobody Wants This, but we do, and that’s all that matters.”
