Let’s all take some deep breaths and a moment to group hug this one out, and maybe break into a little mournful musical number, because holy shit. Quentin Coldwater is dead. Really dead. As in,Jason Ralphis leaving the show dead.

The Venture Bros.is so much more than aJohnny Questspoof. It’s all at once an offbeat comedy, a silly nod to staples in geek culture, and an exploration of failure as a thing of beauty rather than an opportunity for shame. There’s a richness to the series that help separate it from its inspirations and put it in a class all its own. Ever the sticklers for continuity, creatorsJackson PublickandDoc Hammerrevel in the small details, often dropping tidbits that seem inconsequential that are actually covertly expository....

For12 seasons,Curb Your Enthusiasmhas been all about the most uncomfortable moments you’re able to imagine. If you thought the incarnation ofLarry DavidasGeorge Constanza (Jason Alexander) onSeinfeldcreated some purposely cringe worthy moments, it paled in comparison to what David could do once he got his own show on HBO.

His wife Susie (Susie Essman) isa walking nightmare of rage....

Stephenie Meyer, perhaps realizing that she’s becoming more irrelevant by the second as theTwilightfranchise fades into memory, has capitalized on the vampire series’ 10th anniversary. The author revealed that she has written a new version with gender-swapped leads entitledLife and Death: Twilight Reimagined, presumably after the publisher rejected such titled asTwilight Returns: My Fans Are Dumb Enough to Buy Anything, Right?andTwilight Again: Stephanie Wants a Yacht. And if you think I’m being a bit hard on Meyer for what appears to be a cynical ploy to exploit the nostalgia of her fanbase, onGood Morning America[viaThe Playlist] she said the process was “fun, but also really fast and easy,” which is what you want to hear an author say when she’s talking about characters you love....

In two careers filled to the brim with widely-discussed and controversial films, perhaps no addition to the filmographies ofOliver Stonehas been as polarizing as 1994’sNatural Born Killers.

Portrayed by January Jones,she is the unsung supertrooper of the AMC series and gives one of its most misunderstood, complex portrayals. An adulterer, absent father, and criminal,Don Draper is the true villain in his marriage to Betty....
