Unique, powerful, strong, and timeless, if there’s one thing that Riot Women has taught us over its first season, it’s that dreams don’t have an expiration date. Today, ahead of the Season 1 finale, Collider is thrilled to once again pair with the hit BBC series and preview a bit of what’s to come for one of the band members in the upcoming installment. With its home network giving it the go-ahead for a second batch of episodes, the curtain won’t be closing on these gals anytime soon. Over the first season, we’ve watched the women fire up their punk band and take over the scene as well as our hearts thanks to a dynamite lineup of stars that includes Joanna Scanlan (No Offence), Rosalie Craig (The Pod Generation), Tamsin Greig (Belgravia), Lorraine Ashbourne (After the Flood) and Amelia Bullmore (Twenty Twelve).

In our sneak peek, the band is hitting the studio to lay down some tracks when bass player, Holly (Greig), is stunned into silence after crossing paths with someone from her past. To make matters worse, the familiar face of yesteryear is the band’s producer, which sends Holly into a tailspin of stumbling words and shaking hands. Upon finding out that she’s next in line to record, Holly has a full-on meltdown that attracts some raised eyebrows from the rest of her bandmates.

Holly’s recording studio freak-out is just one of the laugh-out-loud moments that Riot Women has brought to audiences during its first season. The synopsis for the project gives a closer look into the drama that’s unfolded so far, revealing:

“Set in Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire, Riot Women centers around five women who come together to create a makeshift punk-rock band to enter a local talent contest. But when it comes to writing their first song, the women soon discover they have a lot more to say than they first thought. As they juggle life’s struggles, demanding jobs, grown-up children, ageing parents, ex-husbands and relationships, the band becomes a catalyst for change in all of their lives, and the ripple effect is seemingly never-ending. With each episode, a long-buried secret begins to surface, entangling the women in an unlikely and complex web that threatens to tear everything, including the band, apart.”

Meet the Faces Behind ‘Riot Women’

In addition to the primary group taking the stage and leading the musical charge, Riot Women also features supporting performances from the likes of Claire Skinner (The Trial), Sue Johnston (Downton Abbey), Peter Davison (All Creatures Great and Small), and Anne Reid (Last Tango in Halifax). The project is the latest to hail from Sally Wainwright, who previously secured massive amounts of critical acclaim thanks to the creation of other immediate hits, including Last Tango in Halifax, Happy Valley, and Gentleman Jack.

Check out our exclusive sneak peek at the Riot Women Season 1 finale above and catch the full episode on BritBox Wednesday, February 11.

Robert Irwin Says ‘Anything Could Happen’

Robert Irwin’s Fans Are Divided

The Conservationist Followed In Her Sister’s Footsteps

Robert Irwin Said His Life Is ‘Boring’

Marc Anthony is speaking out for the first time after finding himself pulled into the Beckham family feud.

“I have nothing to say about what’s happening with the family,” the singer, 57, said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter on Monday, February 9. “They’re a wonderful, wonderful family. I’ve known them since before the kids were born. I’m godfather to Cruz. I’m really close to the family.”

Anthony added, “But I have nothing to say about what happened there. It’s extremely unfortunate how it’s playing out — but [how it’s playing out] is hardly the truth.”

The Grammy winner was mentioned in Brooklyn Beckham’s explosive statement speaking out against his family last month. Anthony performed at Brooklyn’s April 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz Beckham.

Brooklyn Peltz Beckham and wife Nicola Peltz Beckham’s wedding allegedly caused friction with his mother, Victoria Beckham. Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, got married in April 2022 with a star-studded ceremony and reception held in Palm Beach, Florida, capped off with a performance from Marc Anthony. (The Latin Grammy winner, 56, is a longtime friend […]

In a January 21 statement shared via Instagram Stories, Brooklyn, 26, accused his mother, Victoria Beckham, of dancing inappropriately with him on his wedding day.

“My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song,” Brooklyn wrote in part. “In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead. She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life. We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.”

During an appearance on the U.K.’s This Morning program later in January, wedding DJ Fat Tony shed more light on Anthony’s performance at the nuptials and the alleged moment between Victoria, 51, and Brooklyn.

“There was no slut-dropping, there was no black PVC catsuit, there was no Spice Girl action,” Tony said. “What it was [and] why I said it was inappropriate, as well, was because … it was the timing.”

He continued, “Marc Anthony was performing onstage. He then called Brooklyn onto the stage [who] went onto the stage where everyone’s expecting it to be Nicola to go up and do the first dance, then Marc Anthony asks ‘the most beautifulest woman in the room’ to come to the stage and then he says, ‘Victoria.’”

Tony said that Brooklyn appeared “devastated,” while Nicola, 31, left the venue “crying her eyes out.”

“Brooklyn’s stuck there onstage, and then they do this dance,” Tony claimed. “Marc Anthony’s, like, ‘Put your hands on your mother’s hips,’ and it was a Latin thing. The whole situation was really awkward for everyone in the room.”

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham’s wedding is back in the spotlight after Brooklyn issued a scathing statement slamming his parents, David Beckham and Victoria Beckham. The famous family has been navigating their ongoing feud since the couple tied the knot in 2022.On Monday, January 19, Brooklyn, 26, shared what he claims is his side […]

In his statement, Brooklyn detailed his rift with his family, including parents Victoria and David, 50, and said that he did not want to reconcile. (Victoria and David also share Romeo, 23, Cruz, 21, and Harper, 14.)

“I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life,” Brooklyn wrote, claiming that his parents have “controlled narratives in the press” about the family his “entire life.”

“Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, l’ve received endless attacks from my parents, both privately and publicly, that were sent to the press on their orders,” he alleged.

Neither David nor Victoria has publicly addressed Brooklyn’s claims. Us Weekly reached out to representatives for the couple at the time.

My mom’s style has always been simple, comfortable and unfussy, built around easy-to-wear pieces that make getting dressed a breeze. Still, as someone who works in fashion, I wanted to help her upgrade her closet, modernizing her options without sacrificing the relaxed, boutique vibe she loves. The goal wasn’t to change her look entirely, but to make small, quality updates that quietly elevate what she already wears.

That’s why I rounded up these 17 chic Amazon finds — a mix of everyday staples and subtle upgrades that add polish to familiar outfits. From cuffed-hem jeans and comfy tunic tops to matching sets she can wear on repeat, each option works seamlessly with her existing closet. Even better, I kept each pick under $50 so that she wouldn’t blow her budget.

Amazon Finds That Helped My 64-Year-Old Mom Refresh Her Style

Tops

1. My Favorite: With more than 2,300 five-star ratings, Automet’s comfy tunic top felt like an easy recommendation for my mom. The ribbed knit fabric and relaxed fit align perfectly with her laid-back style while still adding interest to her outfits.

2. Everyday Essential: This V-neck henley is the kind of easy, weekend-ready top my mom gravitates toward, but the wine color gives it a luxe twist. It layers effortlessly under cardigans and pairs just as well with jeans and sneakers.

3. Stand-Out Sleeves: I picked this lace-sleeve blouse to gently encourage my mom to try something a little different. It keeps the comfort-first feel she loves while adding just a hint of fun.

4. Really Relaxed: With its soft fabric and relaxed silhouette, this boutique-style top fits right into my mom’s wardrobe, yet is a tad different from the stuff she already owns. It’s the kind of piece that instantly makes jeans feel a little more polished.

5. Checkered Moment: Rather than pushing a trend, I liked this checkered cap-sleeve sweater for the texture it adds. It keeps her neutral palette interesting without asking her to step outside her comfort zone.

6. Polished Puff-Sleeve: This pick felt like a nice way to soften my mom’s everyday basics. The puff-sleeve style adds a feminine finish, but the simple silhouette keeps it easy and practical.

As a fashion writer, it’s my job to pay attention to what people are actually wearing — and airports are one of the best places to spot real-time trends. On my most recent trip to New York City, one style dominated terminals from end to end: matching travel sets. Polished yet practical, they’ve clearly become […]

Jeans and Pants

7. My Favorite: These army green pants are so my mom’s style. She loves the color, and the barrel-leg silhouette gives them a modern twist.

8. Classic Cuffs: Kunmi’s cuffed-hem jeans feel like my mom’s usual style, just slightly upgraded. The timeless silhouette keeps them practical, and shoppers rave about the stretchiness and how well they wash.

9. Wide-Leg Winner: I could immediately picture my mom swapping out her denim for this standout style. The muted green fits right into her closet, and the wide-leg silhouette is flattering rather than baggy.

10. Perfect Pant: A pull-on, slim-fit pant is exactly the style I’d recommend my mom wear to work. This one isn’t too stiff and comes in various lengths, while the rich mocha color feels chic and professional.

Shoes

11. My Favorite: These suede clog mules are the ultimate easy mom shoe. The neutral color pairs perfectly with the army green pants above, and the memory-foam insole checks her comfort box.

12. Luxe Loafers: My mom has never been big on loafers, but Amazon’s sleek pair feels subtle enough for her taste. The leather finish and pointed toe make them more elevated rather than schoolgirl, and they’re to mix and match with what she already owns.

13. Snazzy Sneakers: I’ll admit, these retro-style sneakers are a bit outside my mom’s go-to picks — and that’s exactly why I like them! They add a polished, fashionable finish to her jeans-and-T-shirt uniform.

Loungewear

14. My Favorite: This coffee-colored set feels like something my mom would grow to love on travel and lounge days. It’s a slight departure from her usual style, but the soft, stretchy feel makes it an easy sell.

15. Laid Back-Luxe: The vintage-inspired feel of this Free People-style set immediately made me think of my mom. The button-front top is also easy enough to style separately with jeans or even balance out a printed skirt.

16. Rich-Looking: I loved this contrast-knit set for my mom because while it’s neutral and easy to throw on, the subtle hem detailing makes it feel elevated rather than typical loungewear.

17. Comfort MVP: I could see my mom packing PrettyGarden’s comfy matching combo for a trip. . . and never taking off. It has that cozy, broken-in feel she loves, but still looks elevated enough to wear straight from errands to coffee.

Marc Anthony Describes The Beckhams As ‘Wonderful’

The Singer Was Mentioned In Brooklyn Beckham’s Statement

Marc Anthony’s Friendship With David Beckham And His Family

The Singer Is Cruz Beckham’s Godfather

[Editor’s note: The following contains major spoilers for the Peacock TV series The ‘Burbs.]

When you write about television and you love learning about what goes into the production of a TV show, there’s nothing like the experience of driving onto a studio lot and walking around outdoor and soundstage sets where you can tell every little detail has been thought about and discussed with multiple departments. On June 12, 2025, Collider (along with three other media outlets) got the opportunity to head over to the Universal Studios Hollywood back lot to visit the set of the Peacock series The ‘Burbs, starring Keke Palmer, who’s also an executive producer, and Jack Whitehall. The eight-episode whodunnit comedy from creator Celeste Hughey, inspired by the 1989 movie starring Tom Hanks and Carrie Fisher, is set in present-day suburbia and follows a young couple who have reluctantly moved into the husband’s childhood home in the cul-de-sac he grew up in.

Samira (Palmer) and Rob Fisher (Whitehall) move onto a street that promises to be the safest place to live, but the quiet little neighborhood quickly proves to be much more as old secrets come to light and a sense of danger looms. A new neighbor moves into the creepy Victorian across the street, and Rob along with his best friend Naveen (Kapil Talwalkar) are reminded of someone they once knew. A trio of nosy but well-meaning neighbors – Lynn (Julia Duffy), Dana (Paula Pell), and Tod (Mark Proksch) – with secrets of their own help Samira and Rob get to the bottom of what’s going on in Hinkley Hills while also uncovering the fact that things may not be as safe as they’ve been told.

At a studio like Universal, next to the soundstages on the back lot are a variety of streets and locations that could be dressed to look like they’re anywhere, in any time period. While The ‘Burbs TV series and movie were shot in the same houses on Colonial Street, previously known as Mayfield Place, but now called Ashfield Place, nothing is an exact replica, helping establish the fact that this is not a sequel. Even so, there are Easter eggs and nods to the movie, as well as fun little details of their own that they’ve sprinkled throughout.

Joe Dante’s 1989 Movie ‘The ‘Burbs’ Inspired This Seth MacFarlane-Produced Mystery Series

All eight episodes of The ‘Burbs are now available to stream on Peacock, but executive producer Seth MacFarlane originally had the intention of making another movie when he first got the idea for the re-imagining. When he and his fellow Fuzzy Door EPs Erica Huggins and Aimee Carlson were discussing their favorite movies from that era, they realized that the cult favorite was definitely one of them.

“It was Covid, there wasn’t a lot happening, and he felt like maybe this was a movie you could make on the back lot at Universal with 25 people and get away with it,” said Huggins on set during a break from filming the season finale. Cut to a year later, we couldn’t get the deal done … Covid kept continuing on, and we all got busy with something else.”

But that wasn’t the end of it, and The ‘Burbs came back around after the strikes when they thought it might work better as a TV series. Added Huggins, “After Covid, there was the idea of neighborhoods, how you know your neighbors, and what your neighbors mean to you. Since we were all at home and walking the streets of our neighborhoods, creepy houses that have always felt like a little bit of a blight on those neighborhoods made you wonder, ‘Who’s in there? What’s in there?’ It heightened the paranoia from living through Covid.”

Once the idea was in place and they were ready to move forward with the TV series, the next to sign on was showrunner Hughey, who immediately knew Palmer was the only person that she could imagine as Samira. “It was important for me to tell a fish-out-of-water story about a Black woman and a new mother, and experience the world through her eyes,” she said. “[Keke] is the perfect person to do that.”

‘The ‘Burbs’ Movie and the TV Show Are Both of Their Time, With the Peacock Version Having More of a Modern Edge

While The ‘Burbs still has a creepy new neighbor in the foreboding Victorian on the opposite side of the street, they didn’t want to just do a repeat of the Klopeks from the movie. They also decided to reclaim the Munster mansion and transform it into the Victorian, as the Klopek house instead became a normal residence for Naveen. “Your way in is, ‘What is this new creepy family doing?,’” explained Carlson. “That’s a great engine for the season, but as it unfolds, we reveal new mysteries about the characters. That’s the beauty of a television show that you don’t get to do if you only have two hours. That’s where a lot of the fun surprises in the series come from.”

In case you were wondering, they did send movie director Joe Dante the script for the pilot and Huggins said that he loved it and was happy that somebody was doing something with it, and that he wished them well on their journey with it. Added Hughey, who also wrote the pilot, “1989 was a very different time in the country. There was a little bit more fear of the foreign … and the Klopeks were a foreign family that people were unsure of. Because of the Covid of it all, we’ve had to know our neighbors and understand and rely on each other. That was more the essence of our show and how we interact with the world now. It’s about trying to find common ground with everyone around you, which is possible.”

This time around, the creepy neighbor is Gary (Justin Kirk), whose odd and suspicious behavior sets off alarm bells for Samira as she starts to poke around. Thankfully, Samira isn’t alone in her interest in the cul-de-sac tea, and she’s quickly joined by Lynn (Duffy), who’s very familiar with the neighborhood’s history, Dana (Pell), a blunt and direct retired Marine, Tod (Proksch), who’s equal parts socially awkward and very observant.

“You don’t choose your neighbors,” said Carlson when talking about the ensemble surrounding Palmer. “It’s inherently diverse in who they are as people, but also their personalities. It’s everything you want in an ensemble show. They’re all really distinct from one another and those conflicts obviously drive a lot of comedy.”​​​​

Added Huggins, “The tribe of characters that we’ve built around Keke are unusual and interesting in their own right, and they are all carrying a secret that we reveal throughout this season. Not completely, but mostly. Things that get revealed along the way become part of their personalities and you understand the reasons why certain things are happening. The bigger bad in the show gets revealed in a way that’s very unexpected within the cul-de-sac. Each of our characters definitely has a personality that is connected to where they live and what their secret is.

The Love Between Samira and Rob Fisher Is at the Heart of ‘The ’Burbs’

The relationship between Samira and Rob is already established when we meet them, but because they’re in a new chapter of their lives, as parents, they’re still adjusting and figuring out what that means. “Especially as relatively new parents, that was something that we really related to,” Whitehall explained, with he and Palmer being parents themselves. “There’s a real richness and depth to the story that we’re telling with them.”

Palmer added, “They’re finding themselves again after having the baby. They did fall in love with each other and they did already have this history, but as new parents, that all goes down the drain once the baby comes. All of a sudden, you don’t know each other anymore. I do think we were able to have fun with that … Me and Jack healed, doing this.”

Walking around the set for the Fisher home, it was easy to get a sense of the love Samira and Rob have for each other, with all the photos scattered around. The details help create a relationship that brings the couple together in times of danger and helps them uncover what’s really going on in their neighborhood.

Executive Producers Huggins and Carlson knew immediately that Palmer and Whitehall were on the same page when it came to their characters. “It was just an instant connection,” said Huggins. “They had chemistry. You could feel they were jumping off each other’s humor and sensibilities, and it was really sweet.”

The natural ease Palmer and Whitehall found with each other easily translated to Samira and Rob. “There were so many conversations and arguments where we were like, ‘Oh, my God, I’ve literally said these words,’” said Whitehall. “It’s so brilliantly observed and relatable in such a wonderful way. It has this nuance and these different layers that are funny and touching.”

If Anyone Tells You That You’re Moving to the Safest Place To Live, You Should Find Somewhere Else To Go

When an unresolved mystery from Rob and Naveen’s past becomes a part of their lives again in the present, Samira has to work through her initial suspicions that they could somehow be involved. Whether it’s knowing her husband well enough to know that he isn’t a murderer or supporting his wife in a way that they can figure out the cul-de-sac mysteries together, Samira and Rob are going to discover who’s really responsible for whatever is going on in their neighborhood. And in the finale, with Naveen being driven off in the trunk of a member of the HOA, who’s responsible for keeping things safe in ways that are clearly very questionable, the series sets up new questions for a possible Season 2.

“[Samira’s] investigative work, thus far, has been pretty good, so I feel like we’re a good team now and we’ve got the support network of the found family of neighbors behind us,” Whitehall said during an interview with Collider at a junket to promote the series launch. “I think they stand a good chance of finding [Naveen] and rescuing him from the trunk of that car.”

In that same interview, Palmer added, “There are so many questions. Where the hell is Naveen? That’s number one. What are you hiding? The thing that you find out about Hinkley Hills, and the reason why it’s the safest town in America, is because people are hiding a lot of things about what happened there. It’s a constant unraveling of one lie to cover up the next lie.”​​​​​​

While ‘The ’Burbs’ Does Resolve Some of Its Mysteries, There Is More Story To Tell in a Possible Season 2

Expanding the ideas and themes of The ‘Burbs for a TV series means that there are still areas to explore moving forward. Getting some answers doesn’t mean you have all the answers, but Hughey has a sense of Season 2 and beyond. “We get to the end of the season with a big ah-ha of what we’ve been tracking through this particular season,” Huggins said during the set visit. “But something bigger comes up at the end that reveals a bigger problem. So, it’s a continuation of the same characters and some of the same storylines, but the end reveals a bigger problem that they have to tackle. It’s definitely meant to continue.”

Hughey added, “We reference Season 2 constantly. We’re like, ‘Okay, we’ll save that for Season 2. And then, we’re going to do this. And this character comes in then.’ Even on set, the cast was like, ‘Okay, in Season 2, we’ll do this.’ It’s not fully mapped out, but we know what the big bad is in the second season and what new adventures they’ll get into. We haven’t mapped it out for five years, but we can definitely see the vision for the next several seasons.”

Part of that vision for Hughey is adding neighbors to the cul-de-sac. “Some people will leave to make room for other characters. Some people can come back. Paula’s character, Dana, talks about her wife the whole season, and I’m hoping to have her come in next season.”

And if for some reason things don’t work out and they don’t get to move forward with a Season 2, Palmer and Whitehall have ideas for more Tom Hanks projects they could remake. “I would do Big,” declared Palmer. “But that’s one of the most popular, so it’s really bad to try to do that because you’re not going to do it. I would do a fake Big that’s called Small, so it reminds me of that, but it ain’t that.”

“Maybe Forest Gump 2,” added Whitehall. “There was a script that was written, apparently. I’d still be running.”

The ‘Burbs is available to stream on Peacock, where you can also watch the 1989 Joe Dante movie.

Chappell Roan has cut ties with her talent agency, Wasserman, after CEO and founder Casey Wasserman was named in files related to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

“As of today, I am no longer represented by Wasserman, the talent agency led by Casey Wasserman,” Roan, 27, shared in an Instagram Story on Monday, February 9.

The “Pink Pony Club” singer continued, “I hold my teams to the highest standards and have a duty to protect them as well. No artist, agent or employee should ever be expected to defend or overlook actions that conflict so deeply with our own moral values.”

“I have deep respect and appreciation for the agents and staff who work tirelessly for their artists and I refuse to passively stand by,” Roan added. “Artists deserve representation that aligns with their values and supports their safety and dignity. This decision reflects my belief that meaningful change in our industry requires accountability and leadership that earns trust.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Wasserman for comment.

Last month, documents emerged linking Wasserman, 51, who is also the president of the organizing committee for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, to Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

According to The Guardian, in one email sent in 2003, Wasserman told Maxwell, “I think of you all the time. So, what do I have to do to see you in a tight leather outfit?” In another email, sent in April that same year, Maxwell offered to give Wasserman a massage that could “drive a man wild.”

“I deeply regret my correspondence with Ghislaine Maxwell which took place over two decades ago, long before her horrific crimes came to light,” Wasserman said in a statement to Deadline earlier this month. “I never had a personal or business relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. As is well documented, I went on a humanitarian trip as part of a delegation with the Clinton Foundation in 2002 on the Epstein plane. I am terribly sorry for having any association with either of them.”

Maxwell, 64, is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence after being found guilty in December 2021 on federal charges of conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, conspiracy to transport minors to participate in illegal sex acts, transporting a minor to participate in illegal sex acts, sex trafficking conspiracy and sex trafficking of a minor.

The Department of Justice released another tranche of federal documents — dubbed the Epstein files — in January following investigations into the disgraced financier. Epstein died by suicide in August 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of minors.

Paris Hilton is breaking her silence on reports that Ghislaine Maxwell attempted to recruit her to date Jeffrey Epstein. “I don’t even remember ever meeting her,” Hilton, 44, told The Times in a recent interview. “I’m such a good clickbait name.” The reports began swirling when music composer Christopher Mason alleged that Maxwell, a longtime […]

President Donald Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act into law in November 2025 after it passed through the House of Representatives and Congress.

The bill “requires the Department of Justice (DOJ) to publish (in a searchable and downloadable format) all unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials in DOJ’s possession that relate to the investigation and prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein.” Materials released include those in connection with the federal charges related to Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime friend and former girlfriend.
