FBI: International Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:

FBI: International is the third iteration of the successful FBI brand that follows the elite operatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s International Fly Team. Headquartered in Budapest, they travel throughout Europe with the mission of tracking and neutralizing threats against American citizens wherever they may be, putting their lives on the line to protect the U.S. and its people. The Fly Team’s Special Agent Scott Forrester, their accomplished and dedicated leader, puts his missions ahead of his personal life and is often accompanied by his trusty Schutzhund dog, Tank.

Second in command is Special Agent Jamie Kellett, a heroic and fearless investigator – and her extensive network of informants is a powerful resource. Special Agent Andre Raines shines in the field and makes good use of his accounting background in tracking criminal enterprises’ moving money; and Special Agent Cameron Vo, a competitive West Point grad who excels at interrogation and strategy. Newly embedded with the Fly Team is Megan “Smitty” Garretson, a streetwise Europol agent with an extensive undercover background who liaises with each host country they inhabit.

‘So Help Me Todd’ Episode 8 Preview: Photos, Cast, Plot, and Air Date

Margaret steps up to help Lyle’s niece on CBS’s So Help Me Todd season one episode eight. Directed by Nancy Hower from a script by Ira Madison III, episode eight – “Big Bang Theories” – will air on Thursday, December 8, 2022 at 9pm ET/PT.

Oscar winner Marcia Gay Harden stars as Margaret Wright, Skylar Astin plays Todd Wright, and Tristen J. Winger is Lyle. Madeline Wise plays Allison, Inga Schlingmann is Susan, and Rosa Arredondo stars as Francey.

Guest stars include Rob Labelle, Marlee Walchuk, Regan Ross, Jasmin Dring, Djouliet Amara, Russell Dennis Lewis, and Matthew Dennis Lewis.

“Big Bang Theories” Plot: When Lyle’s niece, Angie (Amara), is accused of committing a crime on her college campus, Lyle enlists Margaret and Todd to vindicate her.

The Plot:

Marcia Gay Harden and Skylar Astin star as razor-sharp, meticulous attorney Margaret Wright (Harden) and Todd (Astin), her talented but scruffy, aimless son whom she hires as her law firm’s in-house investigator. As the black sheep of the well-heeled Wright family, Todd is a laidback, quick-thinking, excellent former private detective who fell on hard times after his flexible interpretation of the law got his license revoked. Margaret’s penchant for excellence and strict adherence to the law is at complete odds with Todd’s scrappy methods of finding his way through sticky situations: by the seat of his wrinkled pants.

When Todd inadvertently teams with his mother on a case, she’s surprised to find herself duly impressed by – and proud of – his crafty ability to sleuth out information with his charm and his wide-ranging tech savvy. At last, Margaret sees a way to put her son on a “suitable” path to living an adult, financially solvent life she approves of, and she asks him to join her firm. Todd agrees since it means getting his license back and once again doing the job he excels at and loves.

Mother and son working together is a big first step toward mending their fragile, dysfunctional relationship, and they may even come away with a better understanding of each other at this pivotal point in their lives. But whether Todd and Margaret will be able to accept each other for who they are is another case entirely.

‘Ghosts’ Season 2 Episode 8 Preview: Photos, Plot, Cast and Release Date

CBS’s Ghosts will return from a month-long break with season two episode eight, an episode that finds Sam and Jay turning to Alberta for help. Directed by Nick Wong from a script by Zora Bikangaga, episode eight – “The Liquor License” – will air on Thursday, December 8, 2022 at 8:30pm ET/PT.

Rose McIver and Utkarsh Ambudkar return as Samantha and Jay, the living residents of the mansion. Reprising their roles as the resident ghosts are Brandon Scott Jones as Isaac, Richie Moriarty as Pete, Danielle Pinnock as Alberta, and Asher Grodman as Trevor. Román Zaragoza stars as Sasappis, Sheila Carrasco plays Flower, Rebecca Wisocky is Hetty, and Devan Chandler Long plays Thorfinn.

Episode eight guest stars include Mark Andrada as Cyrus, Neil Crone as Ben Franklin, Kaliko Kauahi as Inspector Sherry, Jonathan Valvano as Blane, and Reanne Spitzer as Amanda.

“The Liquor License” Plot: Alberta’s expertise from her past comes in handy when Sam and Jay run into some complications during their Woodstone whiskey-tasting soiree. Also, Trevor devises a ghost fraternity, which inspires a revelation from Isaac’s past.

Ghosts Season 2 Episode 8 Alberta and Pete

The Plot:

Ghosts is a single-camera comedy about Samantha and Jay, a cheerful freelance journalist and up-and-coming chef from the city, respectively, who threw both caution and money to the wind when they decide to convert a huge rundown country estate they inherited into a bed & breakfast – only to find it was inhabited by the many spirits of deceased residents who now call it home.

The departed souls are a close-knit, eclectic group that includes a saucy Prohibition-era lounge singer (Pinnock); a pompous 18th-century militiaman (Jones); a ‘60s hippie fond of hallucinogens (Carrasco); an overly upbeat ‘80s scout troop leader (Moriarty); a cod-obsessed Viking explorer from 1009 (Devon Chandler Long); a slick ‘90s finance bro (Grodman); a sarcastic and witty native from the 16th-century (Zaragoza); and a society woman and wife of a 19th-century robber baron who is Samantha’s ancestor (isocky), to name a few.

The opening of the B&B is a source of intrigue, anxiety, and curiosity among the spirits, but they’ll gladly put up with the commotion as long as they can continue to interact with a living inhabitant – Samantha.

Review: ‘The Menu’ Starring Ralph Fiennes and Anya Taylor-Joy

The Menu Anya Taylor-Joy and Ralph Fiennes

What should be a most divine dining experience for 11 individuals turns into a night of unexpected terror in Searchlight Pictures’ The Menu. The R-rated film from director Mark Mylod (Game of Thrones) is a dark, sharply crafted horror comedy with a wonderful ensemble cast.

The movie kicks off with the introduction of two of the diners – Margot (Anya Taylor-Joy) and Tyler (Nicholas Hoult) – waiting on a dock to board a boat that will take them to a remote island. Their destination: Hawthorne, an exclusive restaurant that charges $1,250 a plate and promises to be worth every dollar.

Nine other guests join them onboard the boat including a past-his-prime movie star (John Leguizamo) and his lovely assistant (Aimee Carrero), Lillian; a pretentious food critic (Janet McTeer) and her brown-nosing editor (Paul Adelstein); Anne (Judith Light) and Richard (Reed Birney), an older couple who have dined at the restaurant many times before; and the obnoxious trio of Dave (Mark St. Cyr), Soren (Arturo Castro), and Bryce (Rob Yang), colleagues and friends who work for the owner of the Hawthorne.

The dinner guests arrive at the island and are greeted by Elsa (Hong Chau), Hawthorne’s no-nonsense manager and loyal right hand of master world-class chef Julian Slowik (Ralph Fiennes). Following a quick tour of the tiny island, they finally enter the dining room and await their feast.

The ritzy restaurant’s dining room has a clear view of the kitchen where a team of chefs prepare each course under the command of Slowik, responding to all of his commands as though he’s the leader of a cult and they’re his brainwashed followers. Tyler, in particular, is in awe of everything around him, being a foodie who reveres Slowik’s unique and impressive creations. Margot, a last-minute guest, finds the whole setup and demeanor of Elsa and Slowik odd and a little unnerving. Elsa’s so put off by the whole situation that she barely eats any of the first two courses.

It’s with the introduction of the next course, which Slowik titles “The Mess,” that the evening takes a very shocking and unexpected turn for the wealthy patrons of Hawthorne who quickly realize that the price of dining might have to be paid with their lives.

Two-time Oscar nominee Ralph Fiennes ( Schindler’s List, The English Patient) delivers a savory and brilliant performance as the pompous, mad chef Slowik who is determined to create a dining masterpiece for his patrons as well as some brutal punishment for those he views as arrogant and entitled.

Anya Taylor-Joy is absolutely riveting as Margot, the unexpected mystery guest who harbors key secrets and is the only diner out of these self-important customers who seems to be constantly thinking of a way to escape the deadly dinner party. Taylor-Joy perfectly displays the sheer terror her character feels when she first realizes the severity of the situation as well as showing just how intelligent and willful Margot is while trying to find a way out. It’s truly Fiennes and Taylor-Joy’s performances in the film that raise it up to an even higher level of entertainment.

Nicholas Hoult delivers a great comedic performance as Tyler, the extreme foodie who’s more concerned about what Chef Slowik thinks of him – and not missing out on any of the courses – than surviving the night.

The sets and production design are lavish and impressive, and the pacing is tight and suspenseful. Provocative, with excellent performances and clever and witty dialogue, The Menu is an exquisite horror comedy that’s good to the last bite. It’s one of the best pictures of the year.

GRADE: B+

MPAA Rating: R for strong violent content, some sexual references, and language throughout

Running Time: 1 hour 46 minutes

Fox’s Official Season 1 Synopsis:

In Monarch, the Roman family is headed by the insanely talented, but tough-as-nails Queen of Country Music DOTTIE CANTRELL ROMAN (Sarandon) and her beloved husband, ‘Texas Truthteller’ ALBIE ROMAN (Adkins). Dottie and Albie have created a country music dynasty. But even though the Roman name is synonymous with authenticity, the very foundation of their success is a lie. And when their reign as country royalty is put in jeopardy, heir to the crown NICOLETTE “NICKY” ROMAN (Friel) will stop at nothing to protect her family’s legacy, while ensuring her own quest for stardom.

Middle child LUKE ROMAN (Sasse) is the CEO of the family’s business, Monarch Entertainment. Luke is the apple of his mother’s eye, but he has a troubled relationship with his father, whose approval he can never get, no matter how hard he tries. Youngest daughter GIGI TUCKER-ROMAN (Ditto) is very close to her older brother and sister, but in a family of superstars, Gigi has always felt like a bit of an outcast, in spite of her incredible singing voice.

Gigi is married to KAYLA ROMAN-TUCKER (Holder), a successful music manager who keeps turning down Luke’s offers to join forces with the family company. Outside business, Kayla’s relationships with the Romans reflect a complicated history, and a secret she is keeping could destroy her marriage to Gigi. ACE GRAYSON (Inigo Pascual) also is part of the family. He is a talented and sensitive 18-year-old who was adopted from an orphanage by Nicky and her husband, struggling British actor CLIVE GRAYSON (guest star Adam Croasdell).

Ace is a phenomenal singer with real swagger on stage and dreams of being a country star like his Grandpa Albie. And just when the Romans’ world couldn’t get more chaotic, enter CATT PHOENIX (Higareda), the stunning and unpredictable mother of 17-year-old ANA PHOENIX (Emma Milani), a talented, wide-eyed young singer who is trying to get signed to the Roman family’s record label.

HBO’s officially renewed the Emmy-winning anthology series The White Lotus for a third season ahead of its season two finale. Created by Mike White, The White Lotus season one was set in Hawaii while season two takes in Italy. The renewal announcement didn’t confirm if any of either seasons’ cast members were returning or where season three will be set.

“There’s no place I’d rather work than HBO and there’s no people I’d rather partner with than Casey Bloys, Francesca Orsi, Nora Skinner, and their incredible team. I feel so lucky to get this opportunity again and am excited to reunite with my amazingly talented collaborators on The White Lotus,” stated creator, writer, and director Mike White.

“Reflecting on The White Lotus’ humble, run-and-gun origin as a contained pandemic production, it’s impossible not to be awestruck by how Mike orchestrated one of the buzziest and most critically acclaimed shows. And yet, he’s only continued to reach new heights in season 2, which is the ultimate testament to Mike’s raw, unparalleled vision. His courage to explore the uncharted waters of the human psyche, paired with his signature irreverent humor and buoyant directing style, have us all dreaming of more vacation days at the resort we’ve come to adore,” said Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming, Head of HBO Drama Series and Films. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to get the chance to collaborate on a third season together.”

Season one starred Murray Bartlett (Looking), Connie Britton (Nashville), Jennifer Coolidge (2 Broke Girls), Alexandra Daddario (True Detective), and Fred Hechinger (Eighth Grade). Jake Lacy (Girls), Brittany O’Grady (Little Voice), Natasha Rothwell (Insecure), Sydney Sweeney (Euphoria), and Steve Zahn (Treme) were also featured in the first season.

Jennifer Coolidge was the only cast member to return as a season regular in season two. Coolidge is joined by F. Murray Abraham, Theo Rossi, Aubrey Plaza, Adam DiMarco, Meghann Fahy, Jon Gries, Michael Imperioli, and Haley Lu Richardson. Will Sharpe, Simona Tabasco, Leo Woodall, Sabrina Impacciatore, Beatrice Granno, and Tom Hollander also star.

The White Lotus‘ first season premiered in July 2021 and earned 20 Emmy nominations, winning 10. Season two followed in October 2022 and will wrap up with the finale on December 11th.

Series Description, Courtesy of HBO:

The White Lotus is a social satire set at an exclusive Hawaiian resort and follows the vacations of various hotel guests over the span of a week as they relax and rejuvenate in paradise. But with each passing day, a darker complexity emerges in these picture-perfect travelers, the hotel’s cheerful employees and the idyllic locale itself.




‘Elemental’ Teaser Trailer: Fire Meets Water and Sparks Fly

Ember’s a real sparkplug of a girl who loves music. Wade’s a cool drink of water. Together, they experience Pixar’s animated version of the classic Hollywood meet-cute in the teaser trailer for Elemental.

Leah Lewis provides the voice of Ember and Mamoudou Athie is Wade. The Good Dinosaur‘s Peter Sohn directs and Denise Ream serves as a producer.

Elemental was inspired by Sohn’s childhood experiences in New York. “My parents emigrated from Korea in the early 1970s and built a bustling grocery store in the Bronx,” stated Sohn. “We were among many families who ventured to a new land with hopes and dreams—all of us mixing into one big salad bowl of cultures, languages, and beautiful little neighborhoods. That’s what led me to Elemental.”

Sohn added: “Our story is based on the classic elements — fire, water, land, and air. Some elements mix with each other, and some don’t. What if these elements were alive?”

Pixar’s latest animated feature is set to hit theaters on June 16, 2023.

The Plot:

“The film journeys alongside an unlikely pair, Ember and Wade, in a city where fire-, water-, land- and air-residents live together. The fiery young woman and the go-with-the-flow guy are about to discover something elemental: how much they actually have in common.”
