Stephen Colbert is jumping in on the health supplement grift with his brand new “pudding pills,” which he jokes are “too healthy for Fda approval.” The host made the joke on Tuesday’s (December 10) episode of The Late Show as he talked about Donald Trump‘s nominees for his incoming second administration and how many of them seem to sell vitamins and health supplements on the side. “We don’t know exactly what Trump’s appointees are going to do in office, but we know that most of them are doing this right now, they’re hawking unregulated pills,” Colbert said in his opening monologue. “Because a bunch of Trump’s nominees are selling vitamins on the side.” “For starters, Trump’s pick to lead the FBI, Kash Patel… has been on Truth Social promoting pills that he says can ‘rid your body of the harms from Covid-19 vaccines,’” Colbert continued.

“Tell me how it felt to be onstage,” the journalist played by Kodi Smit-McPhee says to Maria Callas in the new trailer for Maria. “An exultation,” she responds. “An intoxication. I thought the stage itself would burn.” Starring Angelina Jolie, Pablo Larraín’s Maria is a swooning portrait of that cocktail of emotion.
Jolie has already earned a Golden Globe nomination for her stunning performance as Maria Callas. Previously, she won an Academy Award for her performance in Girl, Interrupted and has displayed her incredible range in films including Changeling, The Good Shepherd, Maleficent, and Those Who Wish Me Dead.
Renowned Chilean filmmaker Larraín is known for such films as Jackie, Spencer, No, Neruda, and 2023’s El Conde, which garnered a Best Cinematography Oscar nomination for Edward Lachman’s chiaroscuro work.

Back in June 2019, J.J. Abrams struck a massive overall deal that would keep him in the fold of Warner Bros., his home studio since 2006.
The five-year pact, pegged at $500 million at the time, had a unique structure that allowed Abrams to draw from a significant pool of money to sign other writers to overall deals. That positioned the multi-hyphenate behind “Felicity” and “Lost” as not just a content creator but a mogul whose Bad Robot production company would incubate the next generation of storytellers, with Abrams and his wife, Katie McGrath, overseeing the stable.

As we reached the end of Season 26 of The Voice Tuesday, the outcome of the sing-off seemed as much a foregone conclusion as that of a one-person race. Team Michael Bublé’s Sofronio Vasquez had been the frontrunner throughout the competition, and going into the results show, he was the strong favorite in TVLine’s polls as both the contestant who will win and should. Teammate Shye wrapped the Top 5 performances Monday with her best showing ever — a glorious rendition of Harry Styles’ “Falling” — but it was likely too little, too late.

Maria Callas sang for audiences all around the world, but in Maria, she’s training for her final performance — for an audience of one. The famed opera singer “was always trying to please someone, a relationship, a family member, or a friend,” director Pablo Larraín told Netflix. “And now in this film, at the end of her life, she decides to do it for herself. She’s going to try to sing for herself. This is a movie about someone who is looking to find her own voice and understand her identity.”

An opponent struggled despite the advantage of finding all three Daily Doubles (which Ken Jennings made abundantly clear), and fans also pointed out that the Final Jeopardy question was a bit of a deja “clue.” McKinney, a VP of restaurants & bars originally from Boston, Massachusetts, entered with a one-day total of $22,000 after an all-out runaway last episode, outplaying two-day champ Dave Bond. He faced Dan Sand, a law student from Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, and Sara Walker, a family & sports medicine physician from Brighton, Michigan. In the Jeopardy! round, no player decisively pulled ahead. Sand immediately located and flubbed the “Who Wants History?” Daily Double which was seeking “Pizarro,” finishing the round with $2,000.

“Southerners, we’re the best storytellers,” says former Mississippi state Rep. Steve Holland at the beginning of The Kings of Tupelo: A Southern Crime Saga. “Believe it or not, we actually like drama. And in this story right here, we’re proud to show you every characteristic of being a crazy Southerner.”
Tupelo, Mississippi, is the birthplace of Elvis Presley and the place where Machine Gun Kelly allegedly robbed his last bank. And true to Holland’s word, the documentary gathers a rollicking cast of characters that wouldn’t be out of place in a classic Southern Gothic novel, to share, in their own down-home style, the story of how one loudmouth Elvis impersonator and janitor ended up being accused of trying to poison the president of the United States.

Prep school vampires. Bronx bomber vampires. CitiBike vampires. JFK Tsa vampires. “What We Do in the Shadows” isn’t leaving any New York (or vampire) subculture behind in Season 6; this in turn has given costume designer Laura Montgomery the gift of delivering new twists for the FX series’ final run around Staten Island.
The biggest lift of the season was probably Episode 9, “Come Out and Play,” the show’s loving tribute to “The Warriors” and confirmation of the hidden, evil agenda of every Brooklyn barista/artist-and-writer vampire. Montgomery and her team needed to dress the episode’s huge background cast with enough distinctiveness that each group read quickly and comedically as part of the show’s quick-panning, constantly readjusting mockumentary style.
“The show is 22 minutes long and [the costumes are] purely a visual gag when you’re calling out all these vampires,” Montgomery told IndieWire. “Because we had to dress crew, [we had] Location Support On Camera vampires,...

Netflix co-ceo Ted Sarandos said the mammoth turnout of viewers to watch Jake Paul fight Mike Tyson was a success — notwithstanding the video glitches that disrupted the livestream.
“We hate to disappoint members for one second,” said Sarandos, speaking Tuesday at the Ubs Global Media & Communications Conference in New York. “On that night, we were stressing our own technology” as well as that of every internet service provider across the globe, he added: “We were stressing the limits of the internet itself that night.”

In Maria,Maria Callas’ life is an opera. The new film from director Pablo Larraín follows the famed singer through her final days in Paris, filtering the mournful end of her career through the music she loved so much. As played by Angelina Jolie, Maria is a tragic figure straight from one of her operas. “This is a movie about someone who becomes part of the tragedies that she played onstage,” Larraín told Netflix.
Fittingly, those stage-bound tragedies also found their way into the film, in ways both large and small. “There’s some sort of a hidden map in the film, where the piece of music that we use — whether it’s only orchestration or with vocals in it — is related to the moment in the film,” Larraín said. “They’re not just there because they worked [musically] where they are — they’re there because they have a dramatic purpose.

There was a moment on the set of director Matt Reeves’ film “The Batman” that “freaked everyone out,” recalled prosthetic makeup designer Michael Marino. That haywire instance was Colin Farrell walking around and saying hello to the cast and crew as the Penguin.
“Everyone started talking about how they wished there could be more scenes with him, but the script was locked,” Marino told IndieWire. Well, it turned out that Reeves was already in discussions with HBO brass about an Oswald Cobb origin story that would bridge the gap between “The Batman” and “The Batman Part II” (currently slated for an October 2026 release).
“The Penguin” made its HBO premiere in the fall of 2024 with Lauren LeFranc developing and running the compelling series, which tells the story of how Oswald (Farrell) seized power via an intimate character study that’s more crime drama than comic book. Expanding the Gotham world required...

Dexter: Original Sin will take audiences back in time to find out how the man became the monster — er, the monster-slayer — in the Showtime thriller. The prequel series, which premieres on Paramount+ with Showtime on Friday, December 13, takes place 15 years before we first met Dexter in the original Dexter. Taking over the title role in this iteration is Patrick Gibson, who has the character’s steely-eyed stares and smug sauntering style down to a science. With new characters being introduced in some familiar settings, the new series will bring some new details about Dexter’s past to light, but it will also inevitably retread some familiar territory from the first show, which had ample flashbacks. Here’s what to remember about Dexter‘s past before Dexter: Original Sin. Dexter had a secret biological brother Dexter didn’t find out until he was a fully grown serial murderer that...

If given the chance, would you want to live forever? For tech millionaire Bryan Johnson, the question is less a rhetorical inquiry than a scientific experiment he’s conducting on a daily basis — with himself as the test subject.
From director Chris Smith, Don’t Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever goes behind the headlines surrounding Johnson’s anti-aging crusade. It dives deep into his psyche, revealing the drastic shifts that took the entrepreneur from his own personal struggles to dedicating his time and energy — and a considerable amount of his fortune — to living long beyond even the most ambitious human life expectancy.
“Last year, I saw a headline about a man spending 2 million dollars a year to become 18 again,” Smith tells Tudum. “That initial curiosity led to a 12-month journey following Bryan Johnson’s quest and its effect on those closest to him, while...

Ryan Seacrest is settling into his Wheel of Fortune host role as Pat Sajak’s replacement, and viewers have praised the host’s less “robotic” energy compared to when he started, especially during the contestant interviews. His more casual side certainly shined through on Monday, December 9’s episode, when he surprised everyone with a candid joke about not winning at love just yet. To open the show, marking the start of Disney Secret Santa Holiday Giveaway week, Seacrest, 49, chatted with the three Disney fan contestants. Married mom-of-two Sunita Baru shared that she’s such a Disney fan that it’s where she celebrated her honeymoon and 10-year wedding anniversary. “Our 20-year anniversary is coming up, and it’s also going to be at Disneyland,” she gushed. Seacrest asked, “Is that the key to a successful marriage?” Sunita replied with a big grin, “I think so.” Then came the unexpected add-on from the host.

Jeopardy’s 2025 postseason is fast approaching, culminating with the coveted Tournament of Champions. However, there was an unexpected issue on the clue board regarding the lineup. The 2025 ToC is set to feature the top 21 contestants from last April until December, but only 20 spots wound up filled, making the quiz show’s most treasured tradition one player short. Bosses previously shared the “disappointing news” that Celebrity Jeopardy! winner Lisa Ann Walter, who was expected to compete like Ike Barinholtz, had dropped out due to scheduling conflicts with Abbott Elementary. There were still a few weeks left for the issue to work itself out, but after no one else qualified and two-day champ Stevie Ruiz failed to win a third game, not filling the suddenly empty podium as of last week’s qualifying cutoff, producers were left with an incomplete roster. On Monday, December 9’s Inside Jeopardy! podcast, producer Sarah Foss, joined by Executive Producer Michael Davies,...
