Last year, Karina Longworth’s hit Hollywood podcast You Must Remember This looked at the Erotic ‘80s. Longworth is now delving into the same topic of sex in film and TV across the 1990s for the next season.
The show, which is presented in partnership with Audacy’s Cadence13, returns on March 28 with its 21-episode season.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Hollywood movies explored the sexual lives, mores and fantasies of adults with degrees of candor, realism and imagination not seen before or since. While Erotic 80s episodes covered the theme one year at a time, the super-sized Erotic 90s breaks down themes from Lolitas and sex symbols to gender politics and more.
The first episode covers the disastrous rollout of Nc-17 and the evolving state of both porn and feminism at the dawn of the ’90s, with topics including David Lynch, Harvey Weinstein, “pro-porn” feminism, “the new morality,” video stores,...

There's a lot more fighting to come!
June got a little of her mojo back on The Handmaid's Tale Season 5 Episode 3, and Serena discovered she doesn't have the pull she thought she had.
The wicked dance between them is simmering and will be the catalyst for wherever the show takes us through its finish.
Every since June left Gilead, she's been made to feel like her behavior is problematic. Moira has been downright annoying as she blames June for not letting go of the misery she experienced in Gilead.
But that jumbotron stunt lit a little fire under Moira's ass. She couldn't stand back and say everything would be Ok. Well, for a little while, at least.
It turns out that Moira's not as acclimated as she's let on.
June: Nick was there. I can talk to him. I need to talk with him.
Luke: We can't get in contact with him without Tuello's office.

A smirk and a growl.
Those were the dueling images The Handmaid’s Tale left for viewers when it returned.
The smirk came from Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski), with the once-reigning Gilead wife enjoying her winning moment when, during a global broadcast of her late husband’s funeral, she brings Hannah (Jordana Blake) into her televised appearance. And the growl came from June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss), who was on the receiving end of that message, as she watched her pre-teen daughter being used as a pawn.
But the actresses who play the starring women on Hulu’s Emmy-winning dystopian series say those physical reactions are just the tip of the iceberg as the show begins its penultimate season.

The story of Mama June and Honey Boo Boo is a complicated story. It all began when Alana Thompson was a child. Her mother, June Shannon, entered her youngest daughter into beauty pageants in their small Georgia town. Mama June, as she is regularly referred to, was every bit the pageant mom/stage mom you might imagine, and her daughter went by the nickname Honey Boo Boo. Honey Boo Boo was a personality of the biggest kind. Her Toddlers & Tiaras debut was so popular that the TLC Network offered the family their own show, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo,” in

The handmaids are getting out of Gilead — but not for another year. Hulu has renewed “The Handmaid’s Tale” for a sixth and final season; the news comes six days ahead of the streaming drama’s season 5 premiere.
The series’ creator and showrunner Bruce Miller has been developing sequel series “The Testaments,” which picks up well after the end of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” for years at Hulu, though it has not yet been ordered to series.
“The Handmaid’s Tale,” which made Hulu the first streaming service to win a Primetime Emmy Award in the Best Series category in 2017, is an adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s classic novel of the same name. The series has won 15 Emmy Awards, as well as a Peabody.

For the longest time, "The Handmaid's Tale" viewers have maintained that getting out of Gilead would solve all of June's (Elisabeth Moss) problems. After a tumultuous fourth season, we've seen June finally enjoy a taste of freedom after many years of being subjected to rigorous systemic injustice and violent ordeals. On a more shocking note, June carried out her own form of justice when she avenged herself and countless other women by orchestrating a plan to take down her abuser Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes), for good. Here's the thing, though — seeking refuge in Canada has only made June angrier, and it will take some time for Gilead to get out of her mind.
Upon learning that Fred Waterford would be set free in Geneva for yielding to the Canadian government, June recruited the assistance of Commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) and Nick (Max Minghella). They offered the Canadian government a deal...

It's been five years since "The Handmaid's Tale" first aired and held a mirror to America with its dystopian tale of a post-apocalyptic world where a totalitarian theocracy ravaged the United States, forcing fertile women to work as natal slaves for the ruling class. After years with a relatively small scope focusing on a single woman named June (Elisabeth Moss) trying to escape her unimaginable situation as a Handmaid, last season ended with June finally escaping Gilead, and participating in the brutal killing of her abuser, commander Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes).
With the status quo blown wide open, we are entering new territory for "The Handmaid's Tale." The show was praised from the very beginning for its adaptation of Margaret Atwood's source material of the same name, and its unsettling allegory of the political climate in the United States.

Things are not looking good for June Osborne in The Handmaid’s Tale Season 5 trailer, newly released by Hulu. Among the many threats laid out in the clips is perhaps the most chilling realization that Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski) is growing more powerful in Canada. “Serena has the world behind her,” June (Elisabeth Moss) says in the trailer. “She’s bringing it here, Gilead.” But it’s clear both the women are afraid of what the other is capable of. June is alarmed by the threat Serena poses to the world at large (“she will always be dangerous”), and Serena fears for her personal safety following June’s vicious (read: cathartic as hell) murder of Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes). “Don’t you dare try to tell me you can protect me from her!” a sobbing Serena tells Sam Jaeger‘s Mark Tuello. And she’s right to be scared.

Less than six weeks removed from the release of his second studio album, June’s More Black Superheroes, the Compton native is trying to stick to an ambitious work regimen (a finished verse and hook for every recording session, “just so I can keep my sword sharp”).

(Warning: This post contains spoilers for the Season 4 finale of “The Handmaid’s Tale.”)
June Osbourne (Elisabeth Moss) had two possible paths to take in the Season 4 finale of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” and the refugee handmaid went down the road that will separate her from her husband, Luke (O-t Fagbenle), and infant daughter, Nichole — possibly, forever.
“She has two choices: She’s either going to stay with her family and have that life and allow the bureaucracy and the system to enact justice and do her job for her and enact justice for all of those women who have been harmed or are not there anymore, all of that,” Moss told TheWrap. “Or, she does it herself.”
The “it” in question is being in charge of the punishment of Commander Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes), the man who — along with his wife, Serena Joy (Yvonne Strahovski) — raped, abused and tortured June for...

“That was a series of challenges,” three-time Emmy Award-winning production designer Elisabeth Williams declares with regard to creating a wartorn Chicago in the fourth season of Hulu‘s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” which kickstarted its 10-episode run with three episodes on April 28. In our exclusive video interview (watch above), Williams talks us through the work that went into creating a ruined version of the aforementioned American metropolis as well as a number of other striking sets in season 4.
On the run after smuggling 86 children and nine Marthas across the Canadian border, June (Elisabeth Moss) and a group of other handmaids betake themselves to a farmhouse for shelter at the outset of the fourth season. On this subject, Williams explains how she and her team wanted to make clear that “we were no longer in the Boston Gilead that we knew,” while also wanting to explore how a Commander who resides in the countryside lives.

JJ Winlove’s June Again, starring Noni Hazlehurst, Claudia Karvan and Stephen Curry, resonated with Mother’s Day crowds at the box office.
The local film opened third nationally over the weekend, behind only the spectacles of much larger films Wrath of Man and Mortal Kombat.
Winlove’s debut feature, June Again follows family matriarch June (Hazlehurst), who gets a fleeting bout of lucidity from dementia. Much to their amazement, June re-enters the lives of her adult children, Ginny (Karvan) and Devon (Curry), and learns that ‘things haven’t gone according to plan’.
With limited time but plenty of pluck, she sets about trying to put everything, and everyone, back on track. When her meddling backfires, June sets out on a romantic journey of her own and discovers she needs help from the very people she was trying to rescue.
Studiocanal opened it on 319 screens, with ticket sales tallying $561,468. With previews,...

This The Handmaid’s Tale review contains spoilers.
“A messy bitch who takes the big swings but doesn’t think about the consequences.” You could do worse for a description of June Osborne. In ‘Nightshade’, Moira’s words proved right when June followed her instinct that a brothelful of sitting-duck Commanders was too good an opportunity to miss. One bottle of homemade poison and David Bowie’s Suffragette City later, and Gilead had suffered another blow. That was the big swing. And now for the consequences.
One consequence of June sticking around to watch the fireworks at the brothel was leaving the Keyes household and its fugitive Handmaids without a leader. In the Guardian truck last time, and during the raid at the start of this episode, June was the one who kept the others cool, shushing and reassuring and giving orders to so they wouldn’t be detected. While she was out enjoying mass murder,...

In any other show, episode one’s pain would have been been extreme.
