However, these nine “perfect” strangers have no idea what is about to hit them.
Chloe Zhoa and the ‘Nomadland’ produces accept the Best Picture Oscar at the 2021 Academy Awards (ABC/AMPAS)
The unconventional 2021 Oscars were weird, wonderful, moving, and often inspirational. There were commentaries rather than film clips, the speeches weren’t cut off, the Academy changed up the order in which winners were announced (never do that again!), and, most noticeably, there was zero snark. There were still plenty of acceptance speeches that spoke to pressing social issues but those speeches also included moments of pure joy over the celebration of films.
Best Supporting Actor winner Daniel Kaluuya (Judas and the Black Messiah) referenced his mom and dad having sex during his otherwise inspirational speech, and the reaction shot of his shocked mother became an instant meme. Chloé Zhao (Nomadland) made history as the first woman of color and only the second female to win a Best Director Oscar. Yuh-Jung Youn (Minari) gave one of the most entertaining speeches of the Academy Awards while becoming the first Korean to win a Best Supporting Actress award. And Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom‘s Mia Neal and Jamika Wilson also entered the history books as the first Black women to earn Academy Awards in the Hair & Makeup category.
There were snubs (Chadwick Boseman), surprises (Anthony Hopkins), and Glenn Close showing off her Spike Lee knowledge and doing Da Butt. When all the winners had finally been revealed, Nomadland emerged with three wins including Best Picture while Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Judas and the Black Messiah, Sound of Metal, Mank, The Father, and Soul each earned two Oscars.
The 93rd Academy Awards were held on Sunday, April 25, 2021 and broadcast live on ABC from Union Station and the Dolby Theatre.

Emmy Award winner Joe Morton (Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series, Scandal) directs the 100th episode of CBS’s Bull airing on Monday, April 26, 2021 at 10pm ET/PT. Season five episode 13, “The Law of the Jungle,” was written by Marissa Matteo and finds Bull attempting to defend a woman charged with the murder of someone who preyed on her as a teen.
The season five cast is led by Michael Weatherly as Dr. Jason Bull. Freddy Rodriguez plays Benny Colón, Yara Martinez stars as Isabella “Izzy” Colón, Geneva Carr is Marissa Morgan, Jamie Lee Kirchner is Danny James, Christopher Jackson plays Chunk Palmer, and MacKenzie Meehan stars as Taylor Rentzel.
Episode 13 guest stars include Alexa Mareka, Chelsea Debo, Talene Monahon, Veanne Cox, and Douglass Everett Davis.
“The Law of the Jungle” Plot: Bull is hired to help a woman determined to go against legal advice when she insists on pleading guilty to the murder of a wealthy philanthropist who preyed on her a teenager.
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. This season, Bull finds it harder than ever to navigate his personal life, as he balances fatherhood and his renewed relationship with Isabella “Izzy” Colón, his ex-wife. Izzy’s brother is Benny Colón, Bull’s trusted associate, a quick-witted lawyer who acts as defense attorney in the company’s mock trials.
Bull’s enviable group of experts at Trial Analysis Corporation shape successful narratives down to the last detail. In addition to Benny, his team includes 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 at coding and computer hacking; and Chunk Palmer, a former all-American lineman and stylist-turned-lawyer, 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.
Grammy Award-winning artists The Weeknd and Ariana Grande teased a remix of his hit single “Save Your Tears” on social media just a few short days ago. Today, the remix has arrived accompanied by an animated music video directed by Jack Brown and produced by Blinkink.
The two multi-platinum artists are no strangers to teaming up. They previously collaborated on “Love Me Harder” from her hit album Positions and “off the table” from Grande’s 2014 album, My Everything. While those songs were Grande’s, this time she joined The Weeknd on his song.
The Weeknd’s original “Save Your Tears” from his multi-platinum 2020 album After Hours continues to be popular. The single tops the Top 40 Radio chart and went double platinum, surpassing the one billion streams mark.
“Save Your Tears” isn’t the first collaboration to come from his smash-hit album After Hours. The Canadian singer and Rosalía collaborated on the “Blinding Lights” remix, and he teamed up with Doja Cat for an “In Your Eyes” remix.
The Weeknd has announced plans to appear on Doja Cat’s much-anticipated upcoming album Plant Her which hasn’t yet confirmed a release date.
The Weeknd has racked up a tremendous amount of achievements over the years including being recently named the Most Streamed R&B Artist of 2021. After Hours sits atop the Most Streamed R&B Album list, continuing its hold on the top spot this year even though the album dropped in early 2020. And “Blinding Lights” and “Save Your Tears” currently occupy two spots on the Top 5 Most Streamed Globally list.
Multi-award winner Ariana Grande has her fair share of remarkable achievements as well. Grande’s the first artist since The Beatles way back in 1964 to hold the top three Billboard Hot 100 spots with her “7 Rings,” “Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored,” and “Thank U, Next.” She also entered the record books in 2020 as the first artist to release five singles that each debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

In addition to confirming the premiere date, Netflix released a batch of “Warhol-inspired Polaroids” along with the limited series’ poster.
The cast of the five-episode series is led by Ewan McGregor in the title role. Krysta Rodriguez plays Liza Minnelli, Rebecca Dayan is Elsa Peretti, Bill Pullman plays David Mahoney, Gian Franco Rodriguez is Victor Hugo, and David Pittu is Joe Eula. Sullivan Jones stars as Ed Austin, Rory Culkin is Joel Schumacher, Kelly Bishop is Eleanor Lambert, and Vera Farmiga plays Adele.
The limited series’ writers include Ryan Murphy, Ian Brennan, Sharr White, Ted Malawer, Tim Pinckney, and Kristina Woo. Murphy, Brennan, White, series star Ewan McGregor, Alexis Martin Woodall, Daniel Minahan, Christine Vachon, Eric Kovtun, and Pamela Koffler of Killer Films executive produce. Minahan directed all five episodes.
The behind the scenes team includes director of photography Tim Ives, production designer Mark Ricker, costume designer Jeriana San Juan, head of hair department Michelle Johnson, and head of makeup department Patricia Regan.
Netflix released the following description of the limited series:
“Halston follows the legendary fashion designer (McGregor), as he leverages his single, invented name into a worldwide fashion empire that’s synonymous with luxury, sex, status and fame, literally defining the era he lives in, 1970’s and ‘80’s New York — until a hostile takeover forces him to battle for control of his most precious asset… the name Halston itself.”

A new calling and a big secret about Flight 828 drive season three episode four of NBC’s Manifest. The episode starts two months after the last episode took place, with Ben (Josh Dallas) waking from a dream of Flight 828 exploding with him and everyone else on it. He sees that his left hand – the one he touched the tailfin with – is glowing. Ben immediately calls Saanvi (Parveen Kaur) to talk about it and confesses he believes the tailfin is beckoning him.
The next morning, he calls Grace (Athena Karkanis) to fill her in on his dream and that he’s going to see Vance (Daryl Edwards) later that day. Ben and Saanvi are driven to the new secure, hidden base of the NSA where Vance, after giving Ben grief for ignoring his request not to try to help him when he was trapped back in Cuba, shows them a reconstructed Flight 828 – including the tailfin they found in Cuba.
“Welcome to Eureka,” says Vance.
Meanwhile, Michaela (Melissa Roxburgh) and Zeke (Matt Long) are doing their best to take care of Michaela’s best friend’s mom in their new home. Zeke’s able to connect with her and calm her down, and he reveals he can feel her fear.
The three meth heads who kidnapped Cal – Pete (Devin Harjes), Jace (James McMenamin), and Kory (DazMann Still) – experience a new calling that features them fleeing in the dark and shows a giant clock ticking down.
Angelina (Holly Taylor) visits Pete in prison, explaining she thinks she was chosen to be with him and that the callings can save him. Understandably, he’s reluctant to believe her.
Next, Angelina visits Michaela and Zeke and asks them to help with Pete’s new calling. Zeke and Michaela head to the prison to visit Pete and, once again, Zeke’s able to make a connection and actually feels Pete’s fear and guilt. Pete tells them about his calling and reveals the big clock is like the one he remembers at his high school when he played football. It seems he and Jace got kicked off the team years ago.
Vance is now in charge of the NSA again and uses his position to show Ben and Saanvi around the testing/rebuilding area of Flight 828. Ben says he needs to see the tailfin.
Olive (Luna Blaise) decides to skip her prom and spend the day researching clues in Egyptian mythology involving the callings. Angelina offers to help.

Michaela and Zeke speak to high school football coach Terry Hannity (Shaun O’Hagan) to find out what happened to Pete. Terry explains it broke his heart to do it, but that Pete sold drugs to a kid who overdosed and died. As Michaela and Zeke leave, they fail to spot Jace on the other side of the field watching them.
Back at the new Flight 828 hiding place, Vance shows Ben and Saanvi the tailfin. He says the tailfin’s condition is relative to it having spent seven years underwater.
Over at the precinct, Jared (J.R. Ramirez) talks to the Major’s daughter, Sara, who’s continuing her search for her missing mom. Sara reveals sometimes her mother would go for walks in the park at night to clear her head. After a little digging, Jared discovers a reported disturbance at a park on the night the Major disappeared.
Jared speaks with the cop who responded to the disturbance and asks for her notes to be faxed over to his precinct.
Back at the Flight 828 hideout, Ben tells Vance about the three meth heads returning from the lake alive. Vance gets annoyed Ben didn’t tell him sooner. Saanvi bumps into Troy, who she thought was killed by the Major, and he confesses he’s been replicating her work at this new site.
Vance takes Ben to the tailfin and he touches it with his left hand expecting something to happen, but nothing does. Vance shows Ben and Saanvi a video of the tailfin vanishing at the same exact time the Major died.
Michaela and Zeke return to the jail and tell Pete what they found out about why he got kicked off the team. Pete starts crying and tells them he didn’t want to sell drugs, but the coach made him. Zeke can feel how terrified Pete was of the coach. Michaela believes the callings want her to arrest Coach Hannity.
Back at the Stone home, Olive and Angelina find a story in the mythology of the lord of the underworld who died but was brought back to life by his wife. While she’s researching, Olive keeps looking at photos sent from her classmates getting ready for prom.
Ben and Saanvi are about to leave when Ben’s hand starts to glow and he sees a door to a level they haven’t been allowed into. He tells Saanvi to cover for him and he sneaks in.
Saanvi explains to Vance that the tailfin vanished at the exact same time she let the Major die in the park, confessing she now believes she won’t survive the death date because of it. Vance accuses her of jumping to conclusions and suggests she join the team here investigating the mystery of Flight 828.
Jace meets up with Kory and they head over to confront the coach. Kory is freaking out over the new calling.
After sneaking into the other level, Ben’s hand leads him to the body of a woman who was a passenger on Flight 828. She died of a gunshot wound and her body’s being preserved. Ben asks Vance about it and Vance explains both she and the tailfin showed signs of being at the bottom of the ocean. Ben believes he and the other passengers have been resurrected, yet Saanvi’s skeptical.
Ben doesn’t tell Vance about his hand lighting up at first because he’s afraid he will be treated like a lab rat by the scientists doing the research.
Michaela and her partner decide to visit the coach at home and find Kory lying on the floor, shot. It turns out Jace shot Kory who was trying to stop him from shooting the coach. Michaela asks the coach if he has any drugs in the house and Kory tells Michaela to check the coach’s vent. She quickly locates them and places the coach under arrest.
Michaela gives Pete a rundown of what happened. After a brief hesitation, Pete says he thinks he knows how she might find Jace.
Saanvi decides to join the research team while Ben keeps working his Flight 828 connection and resurrection theory at home.
Angelina talks Olive into going to her prom stag, and then heads out to visit Pete again.
Episode four’s final scene shows Jared, who’s searching the park where the Major died, being tailed by one of Vance’s men. He calls Vance and informs him Jared’s getting too close to the truth.

Magnum finds out a shocking secret about his mom on CBS’s Magnum P.I. season three episode 15, the season’s penultimate episode. Directed by Kurt Jones from a script by Mike Diaz, “Before the Fall” will air on Friday, April 30, 2021 at 9pm ET/PT.
Jay Hernandez leads the cast as Thomas Magnum. Perdita Weeks is Juliet Higgins, Zachary Knighton is Orville “Rick” Wright, Stephen Hill is Theodore “TC” Calvin, Tim Kang stars as Det. Gordon Katsumoto, and Amy Hill as Teuila “Kumu” Tuileta.
Guest stars include Christopher Thornton, Jay Ali, Steven Michael Quezada, Cameron Gayden, and Allyson Blair. Kelly Rice, Brian McNamara, Kai Caster, Christopher Lee Bailey, Erick Lopez, and David Haydn-Jones also guest star.
“Before the Fall” Plot: Magnum’s Uncle Bernardo (Quezada) visits and reveals a shocking secret about Thomas’ mother. Also, TC asks Higgins for help when he realizes he may have witnessed a potential murder from his helicopter, Higgins decides it’s time to tell Ethan the truth about her past and TC offers Shammy the opportunity to become a pilot.
Magnum P.I. is a modern take on the classic series centering on Thomas Magnum, a decorated former Navy SEAL who, upon returning home from Afghanistan, repurposes his military skills to become a private investigator. A charming rogue, an American hero and a die-hard Detroit Tigers fan, Magnum lives in a guest cottage on Robin’s Nest, the luxurious estate where he works as a security consultant to supplement his P.I. business. The “majordomo” of the property is Juliet Higgins, a beautiful and commanding disavowed MI:6 agent whose second job is to keep Magnum in line, with the help of her two Dobermans.
When Magnum needs back-up on a job, he turns to his trusted buddies and fellow POW survivors, Theodore “TC” Calvin, a former Marine chopper pilot who runs Island Hoppers, a helicopter tour business, and Orville “Rick” Wright, a former Marine door-gunner-turned-impresario of Oahu’s coolest nightclub and the most connected man on the island.
Suspicious of Magnum’s casual attitude and presence at his crime scenes, Detective Gordon Katsumoto finds that he and Magnum are more alike than either of them care to admit. One of Magnum’s biggest supporters is Teuila “Kumu” Tuileta, the unofficial “House Mom” and cultural curator of Robin’s Nest. With keys to a vintage Ferrari in one hand, aviator sunglasses in the other, and an Old Düsseldorf longneck chilling in the fridge, Thomas Magnum is back on the case!
