If you have enough clout in Hollywood, like Jerry Seinfeld did after his eponymous series finished its run in the late 90s, just about any idea you have while you’re still hot will be bankrolled with a blank check made out to cash. 2007’s Bee Movie is a perfect example of what happens when somebody like Steven Spielberg chats with Jerry Seinfeld, who at the time was playfully frustrated over his wife’s new beekeeping hobby. The joke suggested that his wife was having an affair with the bees, and that he should make a movie about insects that pushes this concept to the extreme.
He said he’d call it Bee Movie, or something along those lines, because of the double entendre. You know, like a B-movie, but with actual bees. This was apparently all Spielberg needed to hear to chat with DreamWorks, the company he co-founded in 1994, so Jerry Seinfeld could secure roughly $150 million and make what might be the most misguided animated kids movie to ever grace the silver screen.

Bee Movie attempts to tell a wholesome story about Barry B. Benson (Jerry Seinfeld), a young honey bee who’s about to graduate and enter the workforce. Barry is immediately disillusioned by the fact that whatever career path he picks at this point in his short life cycle will be the only job he ever has until he ultimately perishes, as bees are known to do. In a stroke of luck, paired with a dash of daring insubordination, Barry’s invited to tag along with the Pollen Jocks before officially declaring a proper job.
The Pollen Jocks keep everything back at the hive running like clockwork. They’re disproportionately jacked, gather pollen, and allow all the bees back at the hive to produce that sweet, sweet nectar known as honey.

After getting separated from the pack because he’s a grossly unqualified Pollen Jock wanna-bee, Barry has a run-in with a human woman named Vanessa (Renée Zellweger) and her boyfriend Ken (Patrick Warburton). The latter tries to kill Barry because he’s allergic to bees. Vanessa, on the other hand, values all life, scolding Ken for being so aggressive toward one of God’s beautiful creatures. Naturally, Barry becomes attracted to Vanessa, and the two form an interspecies romance, which leads Bee Movie directly into its true conflict.
Barry is horrified to find out that humans collect, jar, and sell honey made by bees for profit after a trip to the grocery store with Vanessa. According to Barry, the only reasonable thing to do at this point is sue humanity for exploiting bees, which conveniently allows Jerry Seinfeld to jam in as many celebrity cameos as humanly possible, including Ray Liotta and Sting.

On paper, Bee Movie has all the beats you’d expect from an animated kids movie made by DreamWorks Animation or Pixar. There’s one important distinction you need to consider, however. Jerry Seinfeld’s public persona is patently unlikable by design, which is something I’ll openly admit as a fan of Seinfeld, because that’s what makes Seinfeld such a satisfying watch. That energy transfers directly over to Bee Movie, making for a confusing watch despite his best efforts.
Jerry Seinfeld’s Barry B. Benson is witty and charming, and he points out the systemic flaws surrounding bee culture in the form of oppressive work conditions made even worse by their incredibly short life spans. Barry B. Benson also asks the Pollen Jocks what pollen is. Barry B. Benson romantically pursues a human woman while simultaneously undermining her live-in boyfriend’s relationship with her. Barry B. Benson, who has no legal experience and confirms earlier in the movie that he doesn’t know how to tell time, somehow represents every single bee in the world in a massive class action lawsuit against the entire human race.
Oh yeah, and Barry B. Benson, after realizing the error of his ways, casually suggests a suicide pact with Vanessa when his plan epically backfires and puts the entire world in jeopardy.

A tonally disjointed mess of a kids movie, Bee Movie has rightfully earned its cult status after the internet turned the entire thing into a meme in 2015. Its storylines and in-universe logic make absolutely no sense, which is a fundamental filmmaking problem because movies are supposed to tell coherent stories. The result is a surreal, half-baked, high-budget mess of one-liners, bee puns, and implied interspecies erotica that anybody could get bee-hind if they’re in the right mood for it.
Bee Movie is dripping with Seinfeldian humor, and that adds to its charm in small doses. Jerry Seinfeld has a grating personality, and much of his humor is based on complaining about trivial, relatable things. The problem is that bees aren’t relatable, and making an entire movie about Jerry Seinfeld working out his bee-based puns is something you truly have to see to bee-lieve. Of course the internet hivemind would chomp at the bit years after the film’s initial release, because it’s simply too weird not to celebrate for its inherent audacity alone.


As of this writing, Bee Movie is available for on-demand rentals and purchases through YouTube, Apple TV+, Prime Video, and Fandango at Home.

The latest episode of Starfleet Academy had one of its 32nd-century cadets researching a legendary 24th-century figure: Benjamin Sisko, the captain of Deep Space Nine. While the show’s broad humor threatened to drag things down, this episode succeeded as a love letter to Sisko and the man who played him, Avery Brooks. On a larger level, the episode also works as a tribute to Deep Space Nine, the best Star Trek show ever made.
Accordingly, the show threw out DS9 references with almost as much speed and ferocity as Sisko’s fastball. With everything going on (from bar fights to farting fish to literal glitter vomit), it’s easy to miss these cool callbacks. But we’ve got you covered: just keep reading to discover all of the Deep Space Nine Easter eggs you may have missed in this week’s episode of Starfleet Academy!

At one point in her investigation, SAM enters the Sisko Museum, filled with notable artifacts from his life. One of the first things we see is a baseball and a baseball glove, included in the museum because Sisko was such a fan of this outdated American sport. Presumably, the ball in the museum is the same one that was originally given to Sisko by an alien recreation of Buck Bokai, a fictional baseball hero.
Sisko kept that same ball in his office on Deep Space Nine, and he frequently played with it during tense situations like an old-school fidget. At one point, he and his crew engaged in a disastrous baseball game against one of his old Starfleet Academy rivals, a Vulcan whose superior strength meant he was always destined to win. Still, Sisko’s squad came to enjoy the camaraderie of simply playing baseball together, and the museum also houses the hat he wore when leading his team, The Niners.

One of the more surprising inclusions in Starfleet Academy’s Sisko Museum is a typewriter; this is a nod to “Far Beyond the Stars,” in which Sisko experiences visions of living as a sci-fi writer named Benny Russell in 1950s America. The episode portrayed Russell as a Black writer held back by the racism of his time period, but this doesn’t keep him from writing a story about a fictional space station, Deep Space Nine. The episode tells a powerful story about race and racism while provocatively suggesting that the entire show Star Trek fans have been watching might all be in the head of a forgotten ‘50s writer.
It’s interesting to see the typewriter (and Benny’s glasses) in the Sisko Museum, especially since it never seemed like the captain filed an official report about what Starfleet would have likely considered a mental break. But he may have confided about Benny to Dax, who was also present when another delusion nearly kept him from opening the Orb of the Emissary. Considering this episode’s revelation that the Dax symbiont is alive and well and teaching at the academy, the presence of the typewriter makes a lot more sense.

In the most recent Starfleet Academy episode, the latest incarnation of Dax hands SAM Anslem, a book written by Jake Sisko. After opening the book, she interacts with what might be an intelligent hologram of the younger Sisko, or maybe he (being technically part-Prophet) simply transcended time and space. But what makes this book so special in the first place, and why was SAM so surprised to discover Jake finished it?
In the Deep Space Nine episode “The Muse,” young Jake comes under the influence of Onaya, an alien creature who feeds off creative energy; basically, she kills people, but only after unlocking their full potential. Under her influence, Jake begins Anslem, his first novel, but he doesn’t finish it because his father drives away Onaya. Deep Space Nine never revealed if Jake had finished Anslem in the main timeline, but Starfleet Academy confirmed that he secretly completed the book but decided against publishing it.

When he was first stationed on Deep Space Nine, Benjamin Sisko was very skeptical about the Bajoran religion, but that all changed when their godlike Prophets (which he called wormhole aliens) selected him to become Space Jesus. After that, Sisko quickly learned about all the Bajoran beliefs, including the idea that the Prophets sent down special orbs to help guide and communicate with their chosen people. One of those was called the Orb of the Emissary and, in timey-wimey fashion, it held the Prophet that possessed Sisko’s mother and ensured that he was conceived.
When Sisko finds the orb and releases the Prophet, the powerful alien is able to cast out the evil pah-wraith inside the wormhole; this restores hope to the Bajoran people and makes the wormhole functional again. So, what we see in the Sisko Museum in Starfleet Academy isn’t just any orb. It’s the one that is tied to both the beginning of the Sisko and, ultimately, the end of the Dominion War, making it one of the coolest artifacts in the entire galaxy.

Jake Sisko shows up in this episode of Starfleet Academy as an adult. He’s only a hologram, but an interactive one, so he talks SAM. Reprising the role is Cirroc Lofton, who also played Jake on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

As mentioned previously, the Dax symbiote shows up on Starfleet Academy, in a new host called Illa Dax (played by Tawny Newsome). This Dax isn’t a Trill; she’s a Cardassian-Trill hybrid.

Mariah Carey is getting things started at the 2026 Winter Olympics … but she’s not doing a bobsled run … she’s performing at the opening ceremony over in Italy.
The beloved singer just took the stage Friday night at Milan’s San Siro Stadium, where Olympians from around the globe are being introduced on the first night of the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.

@NBCOlympics
Mariah started off singing in Italian … paying tribute to one of Italy’s most beloved songs by belting out “Volare.”
She then transitioned into one of her more recent tracks, her 2025 single “Nothing Is Impossible.”
Mariah sang from the middle of the stadium, wearing a bedazzled white dress and a feather white coat that covered much of her body … save for her cleavage. She was blinged out too, with a bunch of ice on her wrists, neck, ears, and fingers.
Italian singers Andrea Bocelli and Laura Pausini, plus Italian rapper Ghali, are among the other performers … with “The White Lotus” star Sabrina Impacciatore also set to appear.
Team USA is in the house watching … and this year we’ve got our largest Winter Olympics delegation ever … with 232 athletes across all sports.
Bravo, Mariah!!!
Things took a shocking turn at an Olive Garden in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, last Friday (Jan. 30) when an employee’s actions left co-workers and customers scrambling. The unsettling incident has left the community and the restaurant’s staff reeling as authorities investigate what happened behind the kitchen doors.

Travis Kelce heard Taylor Swift calling on the megaphone — and he couldn’t resist busting a move.
Kelce, 36, stepped out at the Sports Illustrated and Tight End University’s Tight Ends & Friends Presented by Cash App & VISA on Thursday, February 5, where he ventured into the DJ booth right when Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” began playing.
In now-viral social media footage, Kelce was spotted dancing and singing along to the track.
“The Fate of Ophelia,” named after the Hamlet heroine, was the first single off Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl when it was released in October 2025.
“My eyes scanned across ‘the fate of Ophelia’ [in my songwriting journal], I was like, ‘Wait, Ophelia drowned because Hamlet just messed with her head so much that she went crazy and she couldn’t take it any more and all these men were gaslighting her until she drowned,’” Swift, 36, said in her The Release Party of a Showgirl film screening. “What if the hook is that you saved my heart from the fate of Ophelia?”
Swift further explained that Kelce was “the reason [she] didn’t end up like this tragic, poetic heroine who passed away in a fictional story.”
Swift wrote and recorded The Life of a Showgirl during the European leg of her Eras Tour in 2024, chronicling her life between concerts as her relationship with Kelce blossomed. Swift and Kelce have been together since 2023, getting engaged two years later in August 2025.
Swift’s romance with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end also seemingly inspired her Showgirl songs of “Elizabeth Taylor,” “Opalite,” “Eldest Daughter,” “Wood,” “Wish List” and “Honey.”

“It just feels different from anything we made before,” she explained in Release Party about making “Honey” with producers Max Martin and Shellback. “If someone calls you ‘honey’ sincerely, it turns out it’s awesome. It feels great. … Somebody coming into your life and repurposing those same exact words and turning them sweet and [realizing] how good that feels.”
In the months since Swift dropped Showgirl, she and Kelce settled into a domestic routine while he closed out his NFL season.
“They love cooking challenges and random deep dives on documentaries,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in October 2025. “Taylor is always organizing something, and Travis likes video games and is always studying football games. They complement each other in that way.”
Swift has also made herself at home at Kelce’s Kansas City pad.
“They don’t have to worry as much about being incognito day-to-day,” a second insider told Us. “Travis is pretty beloved in Kansas City, so when he and Taylor go out to dinner at a restaurant, people will say hello [but] they don’t go out of their way to bother them. Travis is really personable and will give fans a smile and a pat on the back, and Taylor seems pretty comfortable, likely because Travis is so at home here.”
A third source, meanwhile, told Us that Swift and Kelce have already started thinking about their wedding plans.
“Taylor thinks it’s cute, and it’s something they have been bonding over,” the third source told Us in December 2025. “Taylor and Travis are both very excited about their next chapter.”

Savannah Guthrie and her family continue to search for her missing mother, Nancy Guthrie, and as authorities investigate the incident, a sheriff in the case is calling out false reporting.
Journalist Ashleigh Banfield found herself in the crosshairs of the Pima County Sheriff’s Department for falsely alleging that Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law is the prime suspect in her disappearance.

During a February 5 press briefing, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos called out podcast host Ashleigh Banfield for incorrectly claiming that Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni, is the prime suspect in her January 31 disappearance.
“We don’t have anybody here listed as a suspect,” Nanos said, per The Hollywood Reporter. “Nobody’s eliminated, but we just really don’t have enough to say, ‘This is our suspect, this is our guy, we know — or our gal.’”
“We don’t know that,” he continued. “And it’s really kind of reckless to report that someone is a suspect when they could very well be a victim.”
Sheriff Nanos also pleaded with the media moving forward to be “careful” with the information they put out regarding the case because it could be a hindrance.

“To the media, I plead with you to be careful of what it is we put out there, because we don’t have anybody here listed as a suspect, and you could actually be doing some damage to the case — but you can do some damage to that individual too. Social media is kind of an ugly world sometimes,” he said.

In a statement sent to The Hollywood Reporter, the producer of Banfield’s podcast told the outlet that Banfield “stands by her reporting” and “her ironclad source.”
“They have towed Annie Guthrie’s car. And there is some connection to Annie Guthrie’s car and Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law — that would be Annie’s husband, Tommaso Cioni, age 50 from Tucson, Arizona, married to Annie P. Guthrie, Savannah’s sister,” Banfield said. “And my law enforcement source tells me that Tommaso Cioni is the prime suspect in this case.”

“Again, law enforcement source tells me that Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law, married to Annie Guthrie, Savannah’s sister, is — may be, may be a prime suspect in this case. At the very least, let me tamp that down, because sometimes it’s the first person you’re looking at, not ‘prime’ as in there’s no one else, OK? So, let’s be really mindful of that. Families are always looked at first as well.”

While speaking at the February 5 press briefing, Sheriff Nanos also shared the update that there are still “no suspects” in Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance.
“At this time, we have not identified a suspect or a person of interest in this case,” Nanos, per Variety. “We are working our best to do that. To be clear: we have nobody of interest or any suspects that you would consider a prime suspect.”
“I have no clue where that comes from,” Nanos said. “We have been very consistent — we are not discussing that at all, whether it’s forced entry or not forced entry.”

Following earlier reports that blood was found at the scene of Nancy’s home and was being tested to determine who it belonged to, authorities identified a positive match.
According to PEOPLE, the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that the blood found on the exterior porch of Nancy’s home positively matches her DNA.
Nancy’s home was labeled a crime scene shortly after her disappearance, after police discovered what they described as “very concerning” conditions, and also that “no proof of life” had been determined.

On February 5, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, in conjunction with the FBI, announced a $50,000 reward for the return of Nancy Guthrie.
The reward is for any information regarding Nancy’s whereabouts and/or “the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance,” according to FBI Special Agent Heith Janke.
“The FBI has agents, analysts, and professional staff employees working day and night with our partners at the sheriff’s department,” Janke said during the press briefing. “We have deployed additional intelligence and agents from our Phoenix office.”

Pants styles are controversial these days, but we stand behind flare pants. Even Meghan Markle, the queen of timeless dressing, is on board, proving that the fun style is more than a fleeting trend. Luckily, we found a comfy version of her flare look — pants that double as jeans and yoga pants. Score!
Markle wore her black jeans to a film festival, styling them with a cashmere sweater and maxi coat. We’re copying the aesthetic for brunches, errands and date nights this season — heck, even casual Fridays at the office. These lookalike pants appear so similar, but are stretchy, forgiving and seriously flattering. Oh, and they cost $212 less!
Get the Rammus Crossover Jeans for $40 on Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate at the date of publication but are subject to change.
Like Markle’s, these flare pants have classic denim detailing, real pockets and a rich black hue. But they differ around the waist; instead of a button, these pants have a flattering crossover design that tucks you in without squeezing. The cotton-and-elastane-blend material is soft like butter and flexible like leggings, so you’ll forget you’re even wearing ‘jeans.’
Better yet, these pants slim from every angle. In addition to the snatching crossover element, these pants boast a high waistband, lengthening side seams and angled back pockets that lift the bootie. The flare-ankle design also gives the illusion of leaner thighs.
Shoppers rave about these pants, including those who have tummies, curves, short torsos or some combination of the above. Many describe them as the most flattering and comfortable jeans they’ve ever worn. It’s no wonder fans come back for other colors!
One new mom shared, “My body changed completely after kids, with an apron belly that doesn’t fit into normal jeans. These are stretchy enough and easy to pull on. Very flattering. I’ve been living in stretch pants for years and these are the first pair of jeans I like.”
Another reviewer echoed the sentiment and wrote, “I think they’re slimming. They are so comfortable, even when sitting down. I stopped wearing jeans for over a decade because the waistband would dig in painfully in that position. These jeans solve that!”
So if you want Markle’s trendy flare jeans look without the buttons, stiffness or scratchy feel, these pants deliver. You’ll wear them from errands to dinner parties and garner compliments along the way.
These wear-everywhere pants should be much more expensive than they are, but we’re not complaining! For an even better deal, don’t forget to check the coupon box for a few bucks off. You’re welcome.

Happy New Music Friday! The weekend is here, which means more streaming, new playlists and the best that music has to offer — and ET has you covered for everything in between.
Taylor Swift has released the music video for her new single, “Opalite.” She revealed that the idea for the video came after she was a guest on The Graham Norton Show and fellow guest Domhnall Gleeson made a joke about wanting to be in one of her music videos. Taylor said she instantly was struck with an idea and emailed a script to Domhnall one week later. She shared, “It was an absolute thrill to create this story and these characters, Shot on film. The Opalite video is out now on Spotify & Apple Music.” You can shop the new “Opalite” blue pearlescent vinyl, available to pre-order until February 6, 4pm PT.
Nick Jonas has released his new solo album, Sunday Best, which is his first solo project in nearly five years and showcases him in a deeply open and introspective chapter. Nick released the official music video for “Gut Punch” exploring the tension between self-perception and reality.
Charlie Puth released his new single “Cry” featuring Kenny G on saxophone. Charlie shared, “Cry is about allowing yourself to feel things fully. I grew up watching people I admire carry emotional weight quietly. This song is a reminder that expressing emotion is not weakness — it’s human, and sometimes it’s exactly what helps you grow.” ET spoke to Charlie Puth after the Super Bowl LX pregame press conference and teased his new album will feature the most collaborations he has done on an album. His new album, Whatever’s Clever!” is out March 27.
ZAYN has released his highly anticipated new single, “Die For Me,” off his upcoming fifth studio album, KONNAKOL, out April 17. This will be ZAYN’s most culturally inspired project to date. He also announced his largest tour to date, The Konnakol Tour, which kicks off May 12.
Ziggy Marley has released a new track, “Many Mourn For Bob,” a powerful tribute to the legacy of his father, Bob Marley. The new song accompanies the announcement of Ziggy’s upcoming new album, Brightside, out May 1. Ziggy released a moving music video featuring images from his childhood with his father. February 6 is Bob’s birthday and he would have turned 81.

A New Mexico grand jury voted to indict the “West Wing” actor on four counts of criminal sexual contact with a minor.
Netflix is one of the biggest streaming platforms in the world, if not the biggest. The streamer loses titles every month but still offers a robust catalog of shows and movies with significant rewatch value. From horror flicks to documentaries, thrillers, and epic dramas, there is always something to see. Series like Liam Hemsworth’s The Witcher, Shadow & Bone, and Gordon Cormier’s Avatar: The Last Airbender, represent some of the streamer’s most ambitious action fantasy projects ever undertaken.
Thankfully for Netflix, these projects have proven to be major hits for the streamer, with even more ambitious strides being taken. KPop Demon Hunters, which is already an award-winning animated feature, and the much-beloved One Piece series adaptation, whose second season is one of the most anticipated seasons in recent memory, signal that ambition. Several Asian series, such as All of Us Are Dead, have already succeeded on the platform. Netflix is poised to expand its catalog into the region with its upcoming Taiwanese fantasy series.
Production began in 2019, and after a seven-year wait, Agent from Above, Netflix’s latest fantasy offering, is finally set to arrive on the platform in 2026. The large-scale action-fantasy series, whose production was slowed in 2022 after the series’ lead, Kai Ko Chen-tung, sustained significant facial injuries on set, is based on the first book of the popular novel series The Oracle Comes by Taiwanese author Teensy. Inspired by Taoist mythology, Agent from Above is set in a universe of gods, monsters, humans, and other mythical beings.
The series follows Ko’s Han Chieh, a former drug user turned spirit medium, who is recruited by the legendary Chinese god San Tai Zi as an agent on Earth. Han Chieh’s charge from San Tai Zi is to help bring balance between the human and demon realms by resolving supernatural disturbances. Seizing the opportunity, Han Chieh sees it as a chance for redemption given the sins of his past. According to a report from Netflix, Agent from Above will arrive on the streamer in Q2 2026, and the fantasy series’ official synopsis reads:
“Bound by a deity’s pact, Han Chieh fights demons on Earth. When he uncovers an old enemy’s plan for a second invasion, he must fight to save humanity.”
Agent From Above is one of the most ambitious and expensive Chinese-language productions for Netflix to date. The first season will have only six episodes and will premiere sometime between April and June 2026. For action fantasy fans awaiting the premiere, Netflix declares it “a visual tour de force that delivers spectacular world-building and artistry, setting a new benchmark that stands shoulder to shoulder with high-end fantasy productions globally.” The series is directed by Kuan Wei-chieh and Lai Chun-yu, with Melvin Ang and Rita Chuang serving as executive producers. Kai Ko (You Are the Apple of My Eye) leads the acting talent from Taiwan, with Wang Po-chieh (Life of Pi), Buffy Chen (The Silent Forest), Johnny Yang (Warrior, The Rip), and Hsueh Shih-ling (Taiwan Crime Stories) also part of the cast.
Agent From Above arrives on Netflix in Q2 2026. Stay tuned to Collider for updates.
