General Hospital 2-Week Spoilers for July 6 – 17, 2026 bring excitement with Steve Burton’s return as Jason Morgan and his time away has apparently really changed him. Plus, Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) is furious when she doesn’t get her way. But at least her boyfriend is back soon.

We are going to get into the latest spoilers for July 6th through the 17th, including big trouble for Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) and Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) getting suspicious. Plus, Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) gets a life-changing shocker. All that and lots more.

General Hospital: Cullum’s Downfall and Character Consequences – July 6th Through 10th

On Monday, July 6th, we’ve got Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) teasing Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean Parsons) over at General Hospital about him getting shot in the backside while protecting Ava Jerome (Maura West). And Carly is bickering with Z (John Oliver). She wants Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) out of the WSB. Z is not going to do that and tries flirting with her. And John Oliver’s run as WSB head concludes on Monday, July 6th. And Vaughn (Bryce Durfee), Josslyn’s former WSB handler and ex-lover, is also back out again as well.

Danny Morgan (Asher Jared Antonyzyn) mocks Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) and tells him to be a hero again like he was when he shot Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) because Danny wants Rocco to come clean to get Jason off the hook. He doesn’t know that Rocco has already cut a deal. But Rocco is not going to go against what Jason told him to do. And very soon Danny is going to go tattling about him shooting Cullum. He’s going to name names.

GH Spoilers: Lulu Stunned and Furious

Also, Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) is shocked. She’s reeling over Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) being dead and she finds out Carly was hiding fugitive Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) and bringing Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) over to visit him. So, Lulu chases down Charlotte and drags her away, ranting that they are not finished talking.

Britt is begging Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) on Monday and freaking out at somebody while she’s still in jail, yelling at them to get away from her. We also have Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) devastated. She finds out Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) was never back from the dead and it was his twin, Cassius, all along. So, I think it’s going to feel like a double loss for her and Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati).

But I actually think Cassius is alive. Josslyn is surprised, so Vaughn may stop by to see her before he leaves town. And we have Josslyn asking somebody for a favor. So it may be Vaughn.

General Hospital: Revelations and Deceptions – July 7th Through 10th

Tuesday, July 7th, Danny reveals a hidden truth. So, it looks like this is when he blabs to somebody that Rocco shot Cullum. And we’ve got Carly in an absolute rage. She’s ticked about Britt being back and that Josslyn is still in the WSB. So, lots of things for her to be mad about.

There’s also a showdown between Willow and Tracy on Tuesday and it looks like they are in Willow’s office and she may wonder if Tracy is the one who’s framing her. Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) has some doubts. He may be rethinking the plot to get Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) and Willow to cheat or rethinking sitting still while Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) sets Willow up for what she really did.

Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) and Emma Scorpio Drake (Brayden Bruner) enjoy some alone time, talk about the future, and get ready to welcome Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) home.

General Hospital Spoilers: Sonny Worried about Carly

Then, on Wednesday, July 8th, Sonny warns Carly to be careful. This may be about Valentin because he’s back soon. Somebody needs Ric Lansing’s (Rick Hearst) legal expertise and it could be Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) or maybe Willow. And Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) makes a difficult decision. She may bail out on the book tour if Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) can’t go along with her.

Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) and Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) bump into each other, but things are going to be awkward. And Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) confides in Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst). He may worry that Sidwell is going to beat the charges and get free. And he’s going to be looking to rely on both Ava and Liz.

Thursday, July 9th. Speaking of her, Elizabeth is suspicious. And looks like this has to do with Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison) and Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) both having strokes at the same house. She hasn’t let that go yet. And Willow suffers a setback. With Sidwell arrested, there’s no more paralytics. So, Drew is going to be able to move soon. That and the nonsense frame job. It’s just a lot for Willow to deal with, but honestly, she deserves that and more.

General Hospital Spoilers: Brook Lynn Called Out

Brook Lynn is put on blast after Tracy’s confrontation with Willow. She might realize something about what’s going on. It may dawn on Tracy that Brook Lynn is setting Willow up and working with Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) to do it. So, Tracy may call Brook Lynn out on it. And Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) confesses or she may be talking to Curtis about his legal options at trial. He’s facing criminal and civil charges.

Friday, July 10th, Britt reveals really big news, or rather it’s revealed to her. And we know Lucas is going to give Britt life-changing news this summer that she never had Huntington’s. So, I wonder if Josslyn was conscious enough to overhear Cullum when he was villain monologuing to Cassius about it and how they tricked Britt to force her to work for them by saying that she had Huntington’s. So, Josslyn may tell Lucas.

Ava has questions for Ethan. This may be about him confessing he’s not really Phoebe’s dad and two former lovers reunite. I suspect this is going to be Valentin and Anna. He may return Friday, seeing as Jason is returning on the next episode on Monday the 13th.

General Hospital Spoilers: Anna and Valentin Reconnect

Anna and Valentin reconnect soon, but she’s infected with Peter August’s (Wes Ramsey) delusion in her brain, so it’s going to be messy. Anna’s back with deadly intention. She is in her apartment this week, and Peter’s right there talking in her ear about everybody. Also this week, Danny and Charlotte run into each other at the Metro Court pool and things may get tense because of him and Rocco.

Also, Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) and Sonny make time for romance after the whole life and death Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) crisis. And Lulu wants answers now. She may be grilling Carly about hiding Valentin, lying to her face for months, and going behind her back so Charlotte could visit her fugitive daddy.

Something horrifies Chase on Friday on General Hospital. This may be about Willow being accused of being the other driver. We also have Brook Lynn and Chase coming to a new understanding and this may be about Willow.

General Hospital: Jason’s Return and New Beginnings – July 13th Through 17th

The week of July 13th through the 17th, we have Jason Morgan back. His first air date is the 13th. We’ll see if he’s in Port Charles that day or if we’re going to see more WSB stuff in Indonesia.

But he has decided to change how he lives his life after his time in captivity. And when Steve Burton returns, we’re going to see Jason’s whole character take a turn, and his decision about his life is going to impact Danny, Britt, the Quartermaines, Anna, and especially Sonny.

Also on Monday the 13th, a new doctor makes his debut. And if you didn’t know, Monday is also the milestone 16,000th episode of General Hospital. We have Britt grappling with the fact she doesn’t have Huntington’s and never did.

Anna’s going to be struggling with her Peter problem and he is making Anna doubt everybody around her. Carly still wants revenge on Jack for recruiting Josslyn into the WSB, but looks like her daughter doesn’t want to leave the spy organization.

And Valentin’s back in Carly’s arms soon. But Sonny doesn’t like Carly being with Valentin and he’s going to get Brick (Stephen A. Smith) on board to help split them up.

General Hospital Spoilers: Lulu Distraught over Both Her Kids

Lulu deals with more attitude from Charlotte and also Rocco. And then Charlotte is going to insist on moving out in coming days. Britt should be out of jail soon and will make her way back over to General Hospital. Looks like she might actually get her job back.

Nina and Jack are looking for the evidence they need against Drew. And if you remember, Cullum took Jack’s black box because Z was trying to find it and couldn’t. So the question is, where did Cullum put it? And will they get that evidence against Drew? Because his recovery begins soon.

Ava and Ethan begin to explore some feelings. Brook Lynn’s plot against Willow is going to blow up in her face in coming weeks. Tracy versus Lucy. They are battling soon over Deception and possibly more.

Gio tries to smooth things over with his brother Rocco. And Cody steps up for James West (Gary James Fuller) and it’s going to have a big impact on his relationship with Molly.

That’s your General Hospital spoilers for July 6-17.

Bold and the Beautiful 2-Week Spoilers for July 6 – 17, 2026 stun with Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) exploding when there’s another assault on R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) plus Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) is infuriated not only by the recent betrayal by Logan and Hope Logan (Annika Noelle), but also because of Finn’s Finnegan‘s (Tanner Novlan) biological connection.

We are going to get into the latest spoilers for July 6th through the 17th, including an update on what caused Hope’s collapse, Electra’s Forrester‘s (Laneya Grace) ultimatum, and Katie Logan‘s (Heather Tom) worried about her son. All that and lots more.

Bold and the Beautiful: Will’s Aggression and Electra’s Choice

On Monday, July 6th, we’ve got Electra continuing her nonsense from Friday. She is barking at Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) about the Logan scandal and Electra accuses Will of helping create this scandal and asks how could he do this? And then Electra tells Will that she is leaving and he tries to talk Electra into staying. But then R.J. shows up telling Will to just let Electra go being a bossy little nepo baby. So, it looks like Will punches R.J. again. And then Electra is going to take R.J. to the hospital because it looks like it’s a pretty hard pop this time.

Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) is shocked by what he finds. So, Hope has collapsed in the showroom after Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) was raging at Brooke then walked out. So, maybe Hope had a panic attack, but I’ve got fingers crossed that she is pregnant. I think that would be great. And Steffy’s looking pretty ticked off at the office on Monday. So, we’ll see if Brooke reports back after the tantrum she threw at Logan and the thing she actually threw at Logan when she was breaking stuff.

Bold and the Beautiful: Ridge’s Crusade and Sheila’s Request

Tuesday, July 7th, Katie’s over at Will’s beach house. And I think Katie might be consoling Will over his drama with Electra, who did walk out on him with R.J. Will’s going to be upset that Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) expected him to keep things secret from Electra, but Katie may explain that Electra was wrong to demand that he spill trade secrets.

Ridge finds R.J. on the couch at the Logan estate with Electra holding an ice pack on his head. Ridge wants to know if his head is still throbbing. R.J. says it’ll be all right. And Ridge says nothing about this is all right. Electra says she’s glad it wasn’t more serious. Ridge says it could have been and he’s griping about that R.J. could have had a concussion or something worse. Electra says she took R.J. to the hospital the night before and Finn said he’s okay. And then Ridge wants to know, “How did we get here?” And R.J. says, “Will got upset.” And Ridge says Will answers questions with his fist.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Both Sides at Boiling Point

Maybe Ridge should ask why R.J. showed up and just walked in to Will’s house. You know, so Electra suggests that maybe Ridge should talk to Will, but R.J. says he doesn’t need his dad fighting his battles for him. Ha. And Ridge says they have to do something before this gets worse. Also, he gives Electra an ultimatum.

And Ridge might tell Electra that she can’t date Will and still work at Forrester Creations because we know how they tend to cross lines and get into people’s personal lives there. Also, Finn is there to support Steffy. She is upset about Hope’s betrayal and will also be angry when she hears that Will hit R.J. again. I’m sure Steffy is going to vent to Finn about her stepsister and of course he will side with Steffy as he should.

But we all saw her making Hope’s life at Forrester Creations difficult. But then in Steffy’s defense, Hope pursued Finn. She kissed him. Then she pulled a coup with Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) after Steffy fired her over the Finn thing. Plus, Hope just tried to get Brooke to steal Steffy’s job as co-CEO. So, lots of justifiable anger on both sides.

Bold and the Beautiful: Divorce and Monaco Drama

Wednesday, July 8th, Ridge is trying to change Electra’s feelings about Will. So, Ridge might try to convince her that Will’s a deceitful hothead just like his dad, Bill. And now that Will has assaulted R.J. twice, Ridge might tell Electra, “Decide where your loyalties lie.” We also have on Wednesday Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) being very clear about what she wants.

She’s going to show up back at Deacon Sharpe’s (Sean Kanan) place and we’re going to see Sheila asking Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) if she spoke to Steffy about allowing her into the family. And Taylor tells Sheila she knows that request is impossible. But it looks like Taylor takes the request to Steffy after Sheila throws Deacon a bone.

Thursday, July 9th, the next day, after this whole scene at his apartment, it’s official. Sheila and Deacon’s marriage is over. So, I’m thinking Sheila is going to sign the divorce papers as long as Taylor promises to genuinely advocate for her with Steffy. And I think Taylor will at least give it a bit of a try. Finn is taken aback by a surprise visitor. And this may be Sheila showing up to the hospital to see Finn. Hopefully she won’t drop by the Malibu house stalking him, but you never know with her.

Taylor goes up to Forrester Creations to the CEO office to talk to Steffy about Sheila’s request. That’s not going to go well. Steffy doesn’t want Sheila back in their lives. You know, she did try to kill Steffy and Finn both. And Sheila’s lies helped her crazy granddaughter Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) run free twice before she finally died. So why should Steffy relent?

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Ridge Faces Off with Bill

Then on Friday, July 10th, Ridge is going to trot over to the Logan and Spencer offices to confront Bill. I’m betting it’s about the Hope betrayal, about how upset Brooke is, and more importantly about Bill’s son Will assaulting R.J. for a second time over Electra. So, Bill is really smug and tells Ridge that there is new royalty in LA fashion.

And I’m sure he’s going to tell Bill that he’s scum and that Will is just like him. And if Ridge is griping about Will hitting R.J., I’m betting that Bill laughs it off and says, “That’s my boy.” So, he’s pushing back on Ridge, and we’re going to see Bill putting his finger in Ridge’s face. We’ll see if those two don’t come to blows on Bold and the Beautiful.

Also, Taylor wonders if Sheila really has turned over a new leaf or if she could turn violent again, especially if Steffy doesn’t agree to what Sheila wants. Two people have been stuck in between them and I expect this is Sheila versus Steffy again. And Finn makes a pledge to Steffy that she will always be his priority no matter what.

Bold and the Beautiful: Monaco and Love Triangles – July 13th Through 17th

The week of July 13th through the 17th, we’re going to have Ridge, Steffy, and Finn heading to Monaco soon. I don’t know the exact date, but that’s coming soon. Sheila’s going to follow them. And what happens there is life-changing. It includes a huge confrontation between Sheila and Steffy.

And it looks like Sheila somehow proves herself to Steffy while there. Maybe she saves Finn or Steffy or both. So, we should be hearing this next week, the week of July 13th, about their travel plans and why they’re going to Monaco.

Also, after all the drama between Will and Electra, looks like Miss Dylan (Sydney Bullock) is back on Will’s radar as a potential love interest. Crew Morrow posted a social media photo with actress Sydney Bullock asking if fans are ready for more Will and Dylan, which isn’t surprising because I expect R.J. to be all over Electra trying to make sure she doesn’t go back to Will. And R.J.’s interest in Dylan may instantly evaporate if R.J. thinks he has a shot with Electra.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Forresters vs. Spencers

After their confrontation the prior week, Bill and Ridge are at war along with Katie and Brooke. And we’ll see how Hope handles the fallout and what is next for her and Deke Sharpe (Harrison Cone) over at Logan. We’ll also see what’s next for Hope after her collapse.

Fingers crossed it’s a baby and not some cheesy medical crisis. Liam and Hope settle into the Spencer mansion as Brooke continues to simmer with rage. Katie and Bill are thrilled to have them and Beth Spencer (Jordyn Lynn Ariza) there.

Carter and Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) face a devastating challenge soon. I suspect it’s going to be infertility issues. We also have Taylor and Deacon really excited about their future now that he is officially divorced from Sheila and he and Taylor can move forward. They could even get engaged. That would be fun.

Brooke, Ridge, and Steffy plot on what they’re going to do about this Logan threat. Hopefully, Ridge will back off what I think are disastrous decisions to put off Eric Forrester’s (John McCook) couture launch and to shove the jewelry line. And we’ve got Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) desperate for forgiveness from both Eric and Brooke.

That’s your Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for July 6-17.

By Robert Scucci
| Published 4 seconds ago

Most stand-up fans will be the first people to tell you that comedy comes from a dark place. Just like being a musician, writer, or filmmaker, honing your craft requires a person to spend a considerable amount of time alone working on their art, which can lead to an expected level of social awkwardness or straight-up questionable behavior. It’s one of those things that comes with the territory, and you just have to be built for it.

Some people are able to assimilate better than others and live normal, healthy lives when they’re not on the road trying to get good and win over audiences across the country. Some people change for the worse, which is the subject of 2015’s Entertainment, starring Gregg Turkington as a somewhat subdued version of the Neil Hamburger character his act is built around.

If I had to compare Entertainment to any similar media, I’d point your attention to a two-episode run of Louie from the fifth season known as “The Road,” which tackles a lot of the same subjects, but without nearly as much heaviness. Don’t get me wrong, both pieces of media are total bummers, but they each have their own distinct flavor.

Despite its comedic backdrop, Entertainment is not a comedy, but rather a sad exploration of one man’s life as the road swallows him whole and he becomes a stranger to everyone he loves. It’s not afraid to show you just how lonely this kind of life can be, and Gregg Turkington deserves all the praise he gets here for leaning into the darker side of a life so many people would like to glamorize.

On The Road Again … 

Entertainment tells the bleak story of a man known only as The Comedian (Gregg Turkington). We follow him from gig to gig alongside his opening act, known only as Eddie the Opener (Tye Sheridan). Like the Louie episodes, our protagonist is suffering an existential crisis, and “depressed” is his default resting state, while his hack opener is having a great time schlepping across the country and performing his set.

When The Comedian isn’t humiliating himself on stage with his questionable brand of humor met with silence, he’s watching soap operas in whatever run-down motel he’s staying at for the night and leaving voicemails for his daughter. As time passes, it becomes heavily implied that he has an estranged relationship with her because she never once picks up the phone.

During the day, The Comedian kills time by going on tours and carrying himself like an unpleasant person nobody wants to be around. The whole thing is a total bummer, but Turkington sells it. He’s simply going through the motions, whether he still wants to or not, because it’s the only life he knows. You can tell he wants something more fulfilling, but he sells the misanthropy and malaise so well that, as a viewer, you can also tell he’s pretty much a lost cause.

Great If You Need To Be Knocked Down A Couple Pegs

If there’s one piece of advice I’d give you before sitting down with Entertainment, it’s to make sure you’re ready for it. It’s an excellent film that’s executed flawlessly, made even better by smaller roles from John C. Reilly and Tim Heidecker (who also contributed to the screenplay). But I’d be lying if I said this movie wasn’t dark as hell. If you’re not in the best headspace while watching Entertainment, it’ll probably leave you worse off, and I mean that as a compliment of the highest order.

Having spent a considerable amount of my formative years consuming all the stand-up comedy I could get my hands on, Entertainment feels like essential viewing. It shows you exactly what happens when somebody who’s known for their jokes doesn’t find anything funny anymore. It’s a slow descent into misanthropy and nihilism that has the potential to put you in a terrible mood if you’re not ready for it.

But if you’re having too good of a day and think you can handle it, Entertainment is currently streaming for free on Tubi, and it’s a total bummer in the best kind of way.

Whoopi Goldberg‘s absence from ” The View ” has her co-host wearing her comedic hat on the show.

Her absence quickly sparked curiosity after she failed to appear on the daytime talk show, with viewers soon discovering that an unexpected travel emergency had kept her thousands of miles away from the studio. 

The timing of Whoopi Goldberg’s absence also comes amid continued speculation about her future on “The View,” making it even more noticeable. 

5

Whoopi Goldberg unexpectedly missed Monday’s episode of “The View” after a volcanic eruption in Italy disrupted her travel plans, leaving the longtime moderator stranded in Sicily instead of behind the panel.

Her co-host, Joy Behar, quickly addressed the absence on-air with a joke, teasing that Goldberg was using “the old volcano excuse” while explaining that the eruption of Mount Etna had forced airport closures and prevented her from flying back to the United States.

In a video message sent to the show, Goldberg laughed off the situation, joking that “a volcano ate my homework” as she explained that the eruption had thrown her travel plans into chaos.

TMZ reported that the Emmy winner is now waiting for conditions around Mount Etna to improve before she can return to New York and resume her duties.

Retirement Isn’t On The Agenda For Goldberg And Behar

5

Retirement isn’t on the agenda for the longtime hosts of “The View.” During a recent interview, the women made it clear they have no intention of stepping away from the daytime talk show despite decades on television.

When asked whether she planned to slow down and enjoy life, Goldberg joked that retirement wasn’t realistic, quipping that if you don’t “marry well,” you have to keep working.

She later doubled down with another lighthearted remark, saying, “I’ve got to keep paying those bills, baby.” Her longtime co-host Joy Behar echoed the sentiment, insisting creative people rarely stop working because they are always looking for their next project.

That mindset has extended beyond daytime television. Behar recently brought her off-Broadway play, “My First Ex-Husband”, to audiences with a rotating celebrity cast, even welcoming Goldberg for a special guest appearance during one performance.

Whoopi Goldberg Continues To Face Pressure Over ‘The View’

5

While the hosts have no plans to leave, the program itself continues to attract intense political attention. Despite remaining the most-watched daytime talk show for five consecutive seasons, “The View” has repeatedly found itself at the center of heated public debates.

One of the latest controversies came from Behar commenting on President Donald Trump, which earned an angry response from the White House.

The comedian’s response was countered by a spokesman who questioned the ratings of the show and compared its criticism of the president to jealousy, exacerbating the public feud between the series and the comedian.

Despite the criticism, both hosts have made it clear they intend to remain on the show. It was reported they remain focused on continuing their work rather than discussing an exit. 

5

Goldberg has never shied away from voicing controversial opinions, and several of her recent remarks have reignited criticism from viewers.

One of the most discussed moments was when she equated the situation of Black Americans with those in Iran’s authoritarian government, asserting that discrimination and violence are still a fact of life in the U.S.

The comments elicited a quick and serious rebuttal from co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who refused to make that comparison and emphasized that women in Iran are subjected to far more stringent restrictions imposed by the government.

Goldberg’s comments were rebutted by others, who criticized her for downplaying Iran’s human rights violations. However, Goldberg maintained that the country’s treatment of marginalized communities in America cannot be ignored.

The exchange sparked widespread backlash online, with The Blast reporting it became another flashpoint in the criticism surrounding the longtime host. 

Whoopi Goldberg Has No Plans To Fall In Love Again

5

After three marriages, Goldberg has accepted that long-term romantic relationships are not for her. She has said the love she receives from family and close friends is enough. Goldberg has also insisted she holds no bitterness toward her former husbands.

The actress has maintained respectful relationships with each of them, explaining that remaining friendly does not require continuing the kind of emotional investment that marriage demands. Goldberg has remained friendly with her former husbands and has said her marriages lacked fun more than romance. 

Goldberg has said she has no interest in marrying again, choosing instead to focus on family, work, and the independence she enjoys. The Blast reported she believes that lifestyle suits her best. 

Young and the Restless 2-Week Spoilers for July 6 – 17, 2026 shock with Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) having his life on the line. He is going to flatline and have to be brought back and things just go downhill from there. Also, Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) is struggling to work through his deep-seated mommy issues.

We’re going to get into the latest spoilers for the two weeks starting July 6th, including action for Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) and Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor). And We’re going to have more crazy from Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk). Also, more on Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver), Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn), and Lily Winters (Christel Khalil). All that and more.

Young and the Restless: Jack’s Stabbing and Patty’s Deception – July 6th Through 10th

On Monday, July 6th, Diane and Kyle come home and find Jack bleeding out on the floor. Kyle calls 911 but learns that some woman already alerted them. Diane and Kyle know for sure that Patty did this. The EMTs arrive and then Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen) is there.

And Kyle tells him that Patty is the one who stabbed his dad and Kyle tells Burrow that he just saved Diane and the detective knows she had been reported missing. The cops find Patty hiding upstairs behind a bed. She has slashed herself, but Patty says that it was Diane that attacked both her and Jack because he had left Diane for her.

Jack actually dies on the floor and the EMTs have to shock him back to life. Then Diane goes after Patty when the cops escort her downstairs and Kyle has to pull Diane off. Patty. Jack is loaded into the ambulance and Patty wants to ride along, but Kyle says, “No way. You’re not going near my dad.” Burrow decides that neither Diane or Patty can leave the mansion until he sorts things out.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Phyllis Agrees to a Date with Matt

Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) tells Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) that he needs to get away from Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) and that Cane’s not going to respond the way that Matt’s approaching him. He asks Phyllis to go for drinks at the Shadow Room. Matt is full of questions and flattery, although he admits he can’t trust Phyllis because she betrayed him before.

Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) calls Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) with an update on Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Sienna says work is fine and says Noah can go rest. Audra shows up and Sienna snipes that Noah’s not there. They swap insults and Sienna reminds Audra that she’s the one who’s Noah’s girlfriend and Audra says that’s only for now. They keep at it until Noah shows up.

He tries to get Audra and Sienna to stop it and then he’s really annoyed when Matt and Phyllis show up and she defends Matt and says that it’s Victor who’s using him, but Noah tells them to leave Sienna alone. And then Noah circles back later and adds that Matt also needs to leave Audra alone.

Matt tells Phyllis she’s hot and he says he cares about her and she finally agrees to go on a date with Matt. Can you even imagine how Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) is going to react to this? I feel like this Matt rapist redemption is what got Josh Griffith an invitation to leave as head writer because it gives all the ick.

Young and the Restless: Medical Crisis and Reconciliation – July 7th Through 10th

Tuesday, July 7th, we have Jack’s life still at risk. He is in really bad shape. He’s already died once. He needs emergency surgery. And somehow Patty is able to get the upper hand with Diane. So, Patty might be able to convince somebody that Diane really did this dastardly thing to Jack.

But Diane was in the car with Kyle and they found Jack together. But Patty may say that Kyle is lying, giving this alibi for Diane and Patty might pull Dr. Laurence Markham (Jere Burns) into the whole thing.

We also have Victor making an unexpected move about Nikki’s post-hospital medical care. So, I do suspect that Victor is going to arrange for Nikki to be brought home to the ranch and is going to get everything set up for her there. Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) walk Nikki through the front door of the new ranch.

I’m interested to see if Nikki agreed to come there or if they didn’t tell her and she thought Nick and Victoria were taking her back to the Genoa City Athletic Club, but they’re actually bringing her home. So, I think that Nikki likely expected to be going back to the Genoa City Athletic Club since Victor tossed her out of their home and she remarked that he was letting Matt stay there but not her.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Patty Forces Jack’s Hand

Then on Wednesday, July 8th, Patty has some sort of leverage she is using to force Jack to stay quiet about something. I’m assuming Patty has some threat she can use to keep Jack from telling the cops that it was her who stabbed him. Billy doubts Jill Abbott’s (Lauren Koslow) intentions.

So, she’s going to stop by Billy and Sally Spectra’s (Courtney Hope) house to talk to him. She’s checking out the whole decor that Sally did. I don’t think she has seen Billy’s house before. But with her pushing to make things better after rejecting Billy’s calls for months, I do think his skepticism about Jill’s motives is valid.

Michael Baldwin (Christian Leblanc) is pleading with Christine Williams Romalotti (Lauralee Bell) on Wednesday, and I’m betting this is about Diane and Patty accusing her of stabbing Jack. As Patty’s ex-sister-in-law, Christine should know exactly how batcrap crazy Paul Williams’ (Doug Davidson) sister is. Hopefully, Christine will not file any charges against Diane. That would be absolutely insane.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Jill’s on a Mission

On Thursday, July 9th, Jill won’t rest until she and Billy fix their relationship. We are almost at the end of the five episode run for Lauren Koslow as she’s playing Jill on Y&R. Lily experiences a different side of Cane on Thursday and we’ve got Lily and Cane chatting with Holden Novak (Nathan Owens), asking about his future plans and Holden tells Lily he really has no idea. And Cane seems ready to offer Holden a job at Chancellor. And I think Lily would absolutely love that. She and Cane are going to be doing some more kissing and cuddling soon.

Friday, July 10th, Nikki struggles to live under her new circumstances. So, it looks like she’s going to remain blind for a little while. Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) returns home from Paris to visit Jack, no doubt, because he was stabbed by Psycho Patty. We also have Victor stunning everybody with a new announcement. Hopefully, it’s him doing something good for a change and not a change for the worse, which is what we usually expect from the mustache. Also, this month, Nikki and Victor’s relationship is supposed to be tested even more, and that might be about Jack’s attack because it’s hard to think what could make things worse.

Young and the Restless: Fallout and New Directions – July 13th Through 17th

Then, the week of July 13th through the 17th, Lily is letting her guard down with Cane, and this may lead them to the bedroom. Patty continues to wreak havoc on Jack and Diane’s marriage. She is far from done. Nikki is really struggling with her new normal. Still with no eyesight, it seems. And Victor is stepping up, but it may be too little, too late, especially once Nikki finds out what Patty did to Jack. Since, of course, it’s Victor that unleashed Patty on the Abbotts again.

Phyllis and Matt get closer. Nick’s going to walk in on them in a compromising position. So, he may relapse. The stress of Nikki’s surgery and her eyesight failing and just Phyllis and Matt and all the ick may be just too much for Nick. Ashley reconnects with her family, but she’s not going to be staying in Genoa City too long. Everybody is still in shock from Victor’s announcement. I hope this all leads to him behaving better. He seemed to have a lot of regrets while Nikki was in surgery.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Jack is on the Mend

Jack’s on the road to recovery, but Patty is still causing problems for Diane. We’ll see if Christine files charges because of Patty’s bogus accusations. Lily and Cane are officially a couple again soon. I expect lots more heat and romance in July sweeps for them. Audra continues to be an increasing problem for Sienna, who is very jealous about Audra.

And of course, she’s pushing Sienna’s buttons every chance she gets. And I’m wondering at what point Noah is going to be tired of being caught in the middle because he hasn’t told Audra to go away. He seems to be entertaining her. We’ll see if Billy acts more like a grown-up after this visit with Jill, played by recast Lauren Koslow, who I thought did a fantastic job, but she has wrapped her run.

So, as far as Jill is saying to Billy, she wants them to be closer as a family, and I think she wants him to be closer to Cane as well. We’ll see how it goes, but I fully expect Billy to accept the job at Chancellor, and I think Holden will, too.

That’s your Young and the Restless spoilers for July 6-17.

In 1988’s Hell Comes to Frogtown, our fertile male hero is humanity’s last hope for rebuilding the population in a world overrun by mutant frog people. There are explosive chastity belts, plenty of wasteland babes, and the whole thing is a masterclass in schlocky, low-budget, post-apocalyptic charm. That same year, a lesser-known film called She-Wolves of the Wasteland (known as Phoenix the Warrior in some markets) was released straight to video, and it has a similar setup when it comes to worldbuilding.

There are no mutant frogs in this version of the wasteland, but the reproduction problem has gotten so far out of hand that it’s the primary source of conflict. Instead of the deliberately cheesy dialogue between Roddy Piper and Sandahl Bergman, She-Wolves of the Wasteland plays things comparatively straight, though the film is still ridiculous in ways you’ll already be more than familiar with if you’re a fan of the genre.

It’s rough around the edges, but not without its charm, and there’s plenty of carnage to keep you entertained as the film barrels through the desert in search of salvation.

All Men Have Been Eliminated

In She-Wolves of the Wasteland, we’re introduced to our ballsy heroine, Phoenix (Kathleen Kinmont), as she helps a pregnant woman named Keela (Peggy McIntaggart) escape the breeding facility owned and operated by The Reverend Mother (Sheila Howard). We soon learn that The Reverend Mother operates these breeding facilities as a means of keeping the human population from becoming extinct, making her desire to kill all men so she could seize power an obvious misstep in her logic.

Phoenix and Keela, now on the run, have to navigate the wasteland without getting captured. Keela fears that if she carries a male child to term, he’ll be seized from her and disposed of, while a female child will eventually be indoctrinated by The Reverend Mother to help maintain the current status quo.

Along the way, they meet a helpful bounty hunter named Neon (Lore de Nuccio), who, like many others living under The Reverend Mother’s rule, doesn’t agree with the female-only policy that’s been implemented. The stakes get even higher when they encounter who may very well be the last documented male on Earth, and they decide it’s their life’s calling to protect the kid at all costs.

A Surprisingly Solid Effort, All Things Considered

As by-the-numbers as She-Wolves of the Wasteland may seem, it’s shockingly adequate in its delivery. On one hand, there are only so many late ’80s wasteland sagas you can watch before you realize they’re all shot in the desert for financial reasons. It’s a budget limitation, sure, but it also allows for some pretty great practical action when the moment calls for it because they’re just blowing stuff up in the middle of nowhere.

Phoenix and Keela make a great duo because the dynamic starts with a ballsy heroine taking a damsel in distress under her wing. But once they get on the same page and have time to plan their next moves while escaping the tyrannical rule of The Reverend Mother, they become a force to be reckoned with, with Keela rising to the occasion and handling the situation like a total badass.

She-Wolves of the Wasteland is one of those quick-and-dirty post-apocalyptic thrillers that checks all the boxes of a Mad Max-style romp through the end times. While it certainly wears its influences on its sleeve, it remains a fun little cult oddity that could very well exist in our cultural lexicon as the kind of side quest George Miller would be proud of.

As of this writing, She-Wolves of the Wasteland is streaming for free on Tubi.

SHE-WOLVES OF THE WASTELAND SCORE

Days of Our Lives 2-Week Spoilers for July 6 – 17, 2026 are going to see Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) getting jealous and making a big mistake that could cost her. Plus, Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) is losing it after he’s given some very misleading information, and he may lash out looking for payback on family.

We are going to see Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) getting better, but Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford) getting much worse and some I love yous coming soon between people that haven’t said it before.

Days of Our Lives: Family Betrayals and Medical Crises – July 6th Through 10th

Monday, July 6. Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) and Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) are enjoying the fireworks and some kisses as the July 4th celebration carries over from last week into this week on Days. And we’ve got Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) comforting and soothing Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) after he upset her by dropping the truth bomb.

Yes indeed Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) and Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) are doing the deed. This is going to be the end of Gwen and Xander. And it looks like Gwen might have learned her lesson. But it’s made worse because Kristen was somebody that Gwen thought of as a friend. And this week, Kristen slams Gwen and says if she had cared about Xander, she would have tried harder to satisfy him. Ouch.

Xander listens as Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) shares her concerns about Holly and her fears that she can’t save her. And then Sarah’s going to find a clue in her office that turned up out of the blue that may save Holly. So, it looks like Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) left a book open to a page on symptoms of arsenic poisoning. EJ’s son has some things to say to his dad. I don’t think Johnny’s happy about EJ having him leave information in Sarah’s office because Johnny might just want to tell Sarah directly what has got Holly so sick.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Brady & Kristen Spar

We also have Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Kristen bickering about Rachel Black (Lorelei Olivia Mote). On Tuesday, July 7th, we have got Lexie lashing out at EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) and she thinks he is using her as a guinea pig. And Lexie says that EJ gave her life back to her just long enough for her to fall back in love with it.

Lexie is ranting at EJ that he never stopped to think what this would do to her. And he loses it. He’s so upset about what is going on with Lexie. And EJ is screaming that everything he’s done, every decision, all the sacrifices, he did it all for the DiMera family. He is in absolute anguish over the possibility of losing Lexie again.

Stephanie Johnson vows to stand by Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson). So, it looks like she’s trying to protect him from Joy Wesley (AlexAnn Hopkins). But that may backfire on Stephanie because this week Joy calls Alex, but it’s Stephanie who has his phone. Not only does she not answer Joy’s call at all. But then Stephanie deletes the voicemail that Alex’s baby mama leaves.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Cat Greene Hypnotized

We also have Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) finally hypnotizing Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord). I cannot wait to see what memories she recovers of her and EJ and their time in Italy. Hope it’s something juicy. We’ll also see Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) and Theo bonding over betrayal. And that may be after Kristen tells Theo that his beloved Stefano is the reason that Lexie had a brain tumor and died to start with. Now, that’s not quite historically accurate, and I’m sure Kristen is bringing this up to make EJ look bad because Kristen wants everybody to hate him.

Then on Wednesday, July 8th, we’ve got Brady pushing. He is not going to let Kristen slide on something. So, I’m curious what bad behavior that Brady calls out. We also have Xander and Brady crossing paths at the hospital this week. Hopefully, they are both civil since both are helping Sarah look into the Coriseal stuff.

Gwen has a heartfelt conversation with Tate Black (Leo Howard) on Wednesday. Maybe she’s having a self-defense class as well. And Alex gets some good advice from Bonnie Lockhart (Judi Evans). And this could be her telling Alex how hard it is to be a stepmom. We also have Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) telling Stephanie that he’s sorry. I don’t know if this is back to her PTSD or about the Joy stuff.

We also have Philip in a tense run-in with Sarah up at the hospital this week.  She’s looking pretty ticked off and Philip is waving his arms around looking agitated. Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) and Theo face off on Wednesday, and every conversation between these two seems to get more and more volatile.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Paulina Snaps on Abe

Thursday, July 9th, we’ve got Paulina Price (Jackée Harry) snapping at Abe Carver (James Reynolds). No doubt Paulina is stressed about Chanel’s cancer and doesn’t need any more drama.

Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) tells Cat he’s thinking of ending her investigation into EJ. But Cat’s desperate to keep it going, so she may tell Rafe about the memories that Marlena helped her recover. And we’ve got EJ feeling triumphant. He’s got the Kiriakis family in a corner with his horrible loan deal. He thinks he’s gotten Holly cleared from the arsenic.

And I wouldn’t be surprised if EJ had some of his minions go dig up that Coriseal so that nobody finds it on Smith Island. And Sarah suspects Holly is taking drugs. So remember, she already searched Holly’s bag and didn’t find anything. But it looks like Tate may find some drugs on Holly and he holds out the pills. But she’s insistent that the pills are not hers and then blows up at Tate in front of Sarah when he wants to talk about it and she’s screaming at Tate to just get out.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Leo Playing Javi?

On Friday, July 10th, we’ve got Leo playing the sympathy card with Javi Hernandez (Jacob Martinez). He’s looking all woozy up at Brady Pub and Javi’s got his arm around him. So, I don’t know if Leo is really still feeling off or if he’s faking it to get Javi’s hands on him.

Alex has a business proposition. But Philip and Xander don’t think it’s a good idea. And Brady and Sarah keep looking into how Holly was poisoned and what took Destiny’s life. We also have Chanel getting comfort from Johnny and Paulina. And Chanel has bought a long blonde wig and she’s taking it for a test drive, anticipating her own hair coming out.

Steve lets Stephanie know that he and Kayla are there for her and Alex may be a little ticked at her for deleting Joy’s voicemail because you know that Joy’s going to tell Alex that she called and left a message.

Days of Our Lives: Secrets Unraveling and Consequences – July 13th Through 17th

Then the week of July 13th through the 17th, we’ve got Theo still upset. He may go ahead and pay out Gabi’s inheritance because Theo’s ticked about Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo) and EJ after what Kristen said. And Theo knows Gabi is going to run that money over to Titan. So, Theo might pay her off for spite.

Also, very soon, EJ’s ready to fire Sarah. And I think EJ thought that he had Holly in the clear. He, I think he’s the one who set her up with the pill. So, it look like she took the Coriseal herself and that the arsenic was incidental. But Sarah doesn’t stop digging. And EJ’s going to snap on her. He is going to try and fire her. But I wonder if Kayla is able to override him.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Lexie’s Health Declines

Lexie’s symptoms worsen soon and she’ll be back in the hospital before too long with Theo and Abe at her side and annoyed at EJ. And we’re gonna see Abe raging at EJ and kicking him out of Lexie’s hospital room. Xander and Kristen continue to conspire against EJ. But we know he’s had enough soon and Kristen’s going to get snatched.

Brady and Sarah get closer to finding out the truth about the Coriseal and those two are going to swap I love you soon. But that doesn’t mean their relationship is in it for the long run. We also have Kristen continuing her plot to target Sydney DiMera (Autumn Gendron). And if EJ’s daughter mentions this to her dad, that might be what triggers him to take drastic action to solve his Kristen problem once and for all since she is setting everybody against him.

We also have EJ and Holly conferring about Amy Lewis’s lawsuit. And we’ll find out exactly why Joy was calling Alex because we know very soon there’s some sort of real medical crisis with Kelsey and Alex may not get there as soon as he should have because of Stephanie’s jealous antics. Alex won’t like that at all and Joy will probably take advantage.

That’s your Days of Our Lives spoilers for July 6-17.

Are you a fan of cinematic punishments like Tommy Wiseau’s 2003 disasterpiece, The Room, and have over three hours to kill? Then boy, you’re in for a treat because Tubi has finally delivered the goods. And what are the goods, you ask? A little two-part movie series known as Best F(r)iends, written by The Room star Greg Sestero and marking his first collaboration with Wiseau since they were both laughed out of Hollywood for what most of us now consider to be the latter’s magnum opus.

Best F(r)iends is billed as a dark comedy-thriller hybrid, but like The Room, I’m not sure if that was the intent or if it’s another form of backpedaling. For anybody who’s not in the know, Wiseau once thought that The Room was going to clean up during awards season, and he even used his own money to make sure the movie had a long enough theatrical run to qualify. When the movie earned its reputation as “The Citizen Kane of bad movies,” the filmmaker suddenly claimed it was always meant to be a dark comedy.

But here’s one thing to consider about Best F(r)iends that we can’t say about The Room: it wasn’t written, directed, edited, and produced by a single person who also wanted to receive top billing. It’s written by and stars Greg Sestero, sure, but if you look at the personnel pages on IMDb and Wikipedia, it appears this production actually had a team of competent filmmakers behind it, making it a much more well-rounded outing, right?

Yes and no. Best F(r)iends is a tough nut to crack because there’s a level of self-awareness that needs to be considered. These days, Tommy Wiseau is more than happy to lean into the “so bad it’s good” reputation he rightfully earned decades ago, and you see more of that personality here. It’s almost jarring because it feels like the man put a considerable amount of practice into trying to capture the same energy he stumbled into while making The Room by accident, and it makes the whole thing feel like a fever dream.

Still, it’s worth a watch if you’re looking for something just a little different from what you’re used to.

Best F(r)iends Is 203 Minutes And About Selling Teeth

Now here’s the burning question I know you’re all asking. Does Best F(r)iends need to be nearly three and a half hours? Absolutely not! The story told across both volumes could easily be locked into a 90-minute runtime, but for some reason we have to stretch it out. Fortunately, I’m a fan of Wiseau’s line delivery and always perplexing on-screen presence, so it’s a wild ride if you have the patience for it. What’s more, breaking the whole thing into two volumes makes it easier to digest because you don’t have to barrel through it all in one sitting. But you have free will, so do with that information as you will.

As for what Best F(r)iends is about, it’s actually quite simple. When suicidal drifter Jon (Greg Sestero) happens upon a lonely mortician named Harvey (Tommy Wiseau), the two form an unlikely friendship. Jon starts by working odd jobs and sticks around Harvey’s place out of morbid curiosity alone. Harvey’s specialty is making replacement faces out of silicone for cadavers who have been horribly disfigured, allowing their families to see them one last time the way they’d like to remember them. We never see any interactions with these families, though, and the masks are creepy as hell, so I wonder how his hard work is received with his clientele. 

The plot thickens when Jon learns about Harvey’s stash of gold dental scrap that he’s been collecting for years. The two partner up and start selling the scrap for an unthinkable amount of money, but the relationship begins to sour. Jon falls in love with a woman named Traci (Kristen StephensonPino), who doesn’t approve of his wheelings and dealings with Harvey. To make matters worse, Jon grows suspicious of Harvey, who’s spending the money they earned together recklessly while having mysterious behind-closed-door conversations with an elusive figure named Malmo (Paul Scheer).

Caught between a bag of stolen molars and a hard place, Jon’s loyalty is pushed to the limit as he tries to build a new life for himself in Colorado, but there will be collateral damage along the way.

If You’re Not A Superfan, You Might Want To Sit These Out

As somebody who always appreciates art made with reckless abandon and no concern for how it’ll be received, I’ll be the first to admit that Best F(r)iends is a rough watch. Greg Sestero is surprisingly solid here, but Tommy Wiseau is pretty much up to his usual tricks. His fashion choices are baffling, he speaks almost entirely in reverse riddles with a thick accent that nobody can quite pinpoint, and he spends half the movie wearing other people’s faces. No, he’s not a serial killer, but he is passionate about his work as a mortician and maybe likes wearing silicone masks modeled after his co-stars just a little too much. But that’s only when he isn’t wearing a knight’s helmet for reasons I won’t get into here. 

If you’re into “so-bad-it’s-good” cinema, or just like hanging around with the personalities found in Best F(r)iends, it’s definitely worth your time as one of those guilty pleasure oddities you’ll want to show your friends who appreciate the finer things in life.

But be warned: it’s such a strange movie about two strange people who somehow have insane chemistry together despite what their reputations suggest. And yes, I’m calling this a movie, singular, despite the fact that it’s split into two volumes because the whole thing plays like one story, and it’s not even a particularly complex one that comes close to requiring this kind of runtime.

As of this writing, Best F(r)iends Volume One and Volume Two are both streaming for free on Tubi. Check the first one out, and if you think you can commit, go for Volume Two. If not, just count your losses and move on. Nobody will be mad at you.

Netflix’s abrupt cancellation of the high-profile sci-fi series The Boroughs sent shockwaves through the industry, not only because the cancellation seemed premature, but also because the show hailed from the Duffer Brothers. The brothers are best known for having created one of Netflix’s platform-defining hits, Stranger Things. They served as executive producers on The Boroughs, which was marketed as their big return to sci-fi. The show premiered to excellent reviews on May 21, and around a month later, Netflix announced that it wouldn’t be producing any more episodes. Coincidentally, the Nielsen ratings for the show’s debut week were revealed the following day, and as it turned out, The Boroughs hadn’t done as poorly as expected at all.

In fact, the show accumulated 1.2 billion minutes watched for the week, finishing second on the Nielsen charts behind fellow Netflix hit Nemesis. In its second week, the series drew another 1.6 billion minutes watched, taking the top spot on the rankings. This was hugely unexpected, because the cancellation had made it seem like the show was in free fall. In fact, it showed a major increase in viewership in its second frame, perhaps thanks to positive word of mouth and encouraging reviews. The Boroughs now holds a “Certified Fresh” 96% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “The Boroughs exudes excellence through its wonderfully plotted sci-fi trappings, star-studded cast, heartfelt narrative, and genuine ingenuity; a new classic through-and-through.”

‘The Boroughs’ Has the Makings of a Future Cult Classic

The latest Nielsen report, which tracks streaming data in the week of June 1 to June 7, revealed that The Boroughs accumulated another 661 million minutes watched. The show has generated 3.4 billion minutes watched in three weeks, finding spots on the Nielsen charts on all three occasions. Starring Alfred Molina, Alfre Woodard, Geena Davis, Clarke Peters, and others, the series follows a group of retirees who are confronted by a mysterious presence at their retirement facility. The show’s cancelation led to speculation that the Duffers’ departure from Netflix — they recently signed a deal with Paramount — might have something to do with it. The brothers are working on a mysterious event movie slated for a 2028 release. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Christoper Nolan‘s The Odyssey has been the talk of online. Whether you’re a Nolan fan or someone mad about “historical” realism in a movie based on the fictional poem by Homer, who may or may not exist, people are talking. Fresh off his Oscar winning film Oppenheimer, Nolan tackled the epic poem (often taught in schools in tandem with Homer’s The Iliad). And the first social reactions for the film praise Nolan’s retelling, calling it his “most impressive.”

The Odyssey stars Matt Damon as Odysseus, the king of Ithaca, who embarks on a 20 year journey back home after fighting in the Battle of Troy. His son, Telemachus (Tom Holland) is not yet old enough to rule and the people of Ithaca don’t know if Odysseus is alive or dead. His wife, Penelope (Anne Hathaway) is the defacto queen still but she has no real power, leaning to suitors (Robert Pattinson and Corey Hawkins) knocking at her doorstep. The film also stars Lupita Nyong’o, Jon Berthanl, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, and more.

First reactions to the film include Jake Kleinman of Polygon calling it Nolan’s most “straight-forward” film while also potentially his most “impressive.” While some praised Nolan’s latest, others called it “Dense but accessible” and said that it is “built to last.” The Mary Sue’s Rachel Leishman said Nolan’s take is “as epic as the source material.” IndieWire’s David Ehrlich called it an “S-tier” Nolan film but said that “the last act rewards the journey.” Colldier’s own Perri Nemiroff said that The Odyssey “is a filmmaking feast. A grand and gripping rendition of Homer’s epic, and one that feels uniquely Christopher Nolan. It’s sincerely hard to imagine any other filmmaker on the planet being able to bring that source material to screen with this much scale, scope and heart.” Collider’s Steve Weintraub called it “incredible” after seeing the film twice, writing “I’m really blown away by this film.”

A Rare But Fascinating Adaptation for Christopher Nolan

Image via Universal Pictures

For most of Nolan’s career, he focused his work on original films. Starting with Following back in 1998 through movies like Memento, Inception, Interstellar, Tenent, and more, if he’s not making his own original genre bending work, he’s tackling things like a lesser known battle of World War II with Dunkirk or Oppenheimer. Outside of his Batman movies, Nolan’s relationship with adaptation is very limited. And he has in the past, on Stephen Colbert‘s show, said that he views the epics as the original superhero stories. So it isn’t surprising that he would go to something like The Odyssey in a post-Dark Knight trilogy world.

And if the reactions are anything to go by, it was clearly the right move. You can see Nolan’s The Odyssey in theaters on July 17.
