The second season of FX’s The Bear just hit Hulu, and while the series as a whole is *chef’s kiss*, Episode 6, “Fishes”, deserves its own special mention. The chaotic, fast-paced, and somehow still heartfelt flashback episode is one of my favorites from the new season. The entire episode takes place at a past Berzatto family Christmas...

From the very minute he presents his band with some "homemade" lemon squares pulled from a package, John Early is in full John Early mode for his HBO special, John Early: Now More Than Ever, and that's certainly a good thing. The comedian — who previously appeared in Search Party, The Afterparty and I Think You Should Leave — gets to shine...

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia returns this summer with a record-setting season. The dark comedy came back with Season 16 earlier this month with a ridiculous episode that perfectly sets the tone for the show's direction since its questionable Irish adventure in Season 15. It looks like the sitcom has returned to its bizarre roots.

Fun fact: The very good movie, Polite Society, is now streaming on Peacock, free to all Peacock Premium subscribers. Writer-director Nida Manzoor, best known for her comedy series We Are Lady Parts, burst onto the film scene earlier this year with this delightful debut feature about a teenage girl (the very charming Priya Kansara) who dreams of...

Since The Other Two premiered in 2019 it's become one of television's most precious gems. Full of cutting satire, relentless pop culture references, a sparkling roster of celebrity guest stars, and delightfully absurdist humor, Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider's Max comedy is in a class all its own. Season 3 raises the bar week after week, but...

Amy Schumer is back with her first Netflix special since 2019, and she's taking on everything from phone sex to C-sections to laser facial treatments. Even her neck hump isn't off limits — and if you're thinking "???," all the more reason to watch. Emergency Contact had me cackling during a particular segment about Schumer's doctor and...

Get in, nerds. We're going to watch Never Have I Ever's leading lady Devi Vishwakumar (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) graduate Sherman Oaks High School. It's been a chaotic few years for our girl, but all her hard work is about to pay off in the fourth and final season of Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher's charming coming-of-age dramedy. Or is it? Will Devi...
"Testimony," the ninth episode of Veep's fourth season, will fill the Succession-sized hole in your life, even if it's just for 30 minutes. It's shot entirely as tapes from depositions and congressional hearings, a departure from the show's usual observational style, and it has shades of Tom and Greg's respective Succession season 2...

Netflix's I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson keeps getting better with age. The third season is yet another example of absurd, perfectly crafted sketch comedy. The episodes are littered with brilliant concepts ("the Driving Crooner," "Darmine Doggy Door," "a zip line enthusiast on a dating show" ) as the inimitable Tim Robinson continues...
