Heather Locklear is opening up for the first time about her romance with Lorenzo Lamas.

“My new guy is very … everything,” Locklear, 64, said during an appearance on the Monday, June 1, episode of the “Hollywood & Divine” podcast. “I’m just like, when I tell this person I love him, I’m really saying, ‘I love you, God.’ Because that’s what happened. It’s from God.”

The Melrose Place alum added, “I’m [in] the best time [of my life].”

Lamas, 68, and Locklear first crossed paths in 1983 when they posed together in swimwear for Playgirl magazine. (Locklear was starring on Dynasty at the time, while Lamas starred on Falcon Crest.)

Ever since TV was invented, we’ve been warned about the dangers of overconsumption, often referring to the device as an “idiot box.” In the 90s, parents would tell their children that if they sat too close to the TV, they’d get sucked into it. 1992’s Stay Tuned turns this fear into a reality for the Knable family when an emissary from hell makes a dirty deal with the family patriarch, resulting in him and his wife getting trapped inside a colorful world of satirical sitcoms and cartoons that are trying to kill them. It’s a lot of fun, and the kind of low-stakes fantasy comedy you could watch with your kids.

While there’s plenty of surface-level humor that everybody can enjoy, this movie thrives on deep cuts and meta humor. If you have young kids, for example, they may not get the Driving Over Miss Daisy reference per se, but the humor of watching it play out in the form of what’s essentially a live-action cartoon won’t be lost on them.

Don’t Get Sucked In! 

Stay Tuned gets most of its laughs from sight gags and its many TV references. The hellish landscape navigated by the Knable family at the center of its adventure is jam-packed with pop culture references. They’re your typical suburban family, but Roy (John Ritter) and Helen (Pam Dawber) Knable are on the verge of divorce due to the former’s TV addiction. If he’s not working his dead-end sales job at the plumbing company, he’s parked firmly in front of the boob tube, neglecting his family.

When Helen smashes the TV, Roy gets a surprise visit from a mysterious salesman named Johnny Spike (Jeffrey Jones), who makes him an offer he can’t refuse: a brand-new, state-of-the-art TV and dish system with 666 channels that nobody else in the world has access to. Roy signs the contract without hesitation, which results in both him and Helen getting sucked into the massive satellite dish that was just installed and thrown into the middle of a game show called You Can’t Win!

Behind the scenes of the game show production, we learn that Johnny Spike’s whole racket is luring people like Roy into this version of hell, where TV addicts’ souls are collected under a very simple agreement: if they can survive 24 hours of TV torture, they get returned to the mortal realm. However, the contract stipulates that if they don’t survive, they’re doomed to an eternity of similar treatment because their souls now belong to Satan.

Meanwhile, back on Earth, the couple’s children, Darryl (David Tom) and Diane (Heather McComb), are enjoying a night without parental supervision, not yet knowing what happened to their parents but curious about the gigantic satellite dish that’s now sitting in their backyard. Darryl, the nerdier of the two, puts two and two together after seeing various iterations of his parents on the new TV while channel surfing, and he needs to convince Diane that what he’s seeing is actually real.

Come For The Storytelling, Stay For The References

What really makes Stay Tuned shine is its willingness to go all in on TV tropes. Every time the channel changes, Roy and Helen are whisked away into a different television program, and each one is stylistically accurate. The set pieces do a lot of the heavy lifting here, as the couple has to navigate and participate in game shows, wrestling matches, hard-boiled noir thrillers, historical epics, prank shows, and, for John Ritter’s character, the worst thing of all: he’s back on the set of Three’s Company. The production goes all out, and you can tell a lot of care went into each style parody because every one is more ridiculous than the last.

At one point, Roy gets trapped in a Saturday Night Dead skit called “Duane’s Underworld,” and it’s about as glorious as you’d expect.

My favorite part about Stay Tuned, though, is how much effort went into all of the little one-off shows that the kids see while flipping through the channels. Programs like Sadistic Hidden Videos, Northern Overexposure, Three Men and Rosemary’s Baby, and The Exorcisist are some prime nugs worth mentioning, but the references and name drops seem endless. If you’re a fan of the countless sight gags crammed into a single scene of The Simpsons, you’ll feel right at home here because the visual jokes are pretty much nonstop.

While a commercial failure that received middling reviews upon its initial release, Stay Tuned is worth your time if you like that “blink and you’ll miss it” style of joke delivery that never lets up. This is not a high-stakes film, but I’ve got to give it credit where it’s due. If you’re well versed in 80s and 90s sitcoms and cartoons, you’ll have a great time watching Stay Tuned with the wife and kids the next time you want a rapid-fire buffet of TV and movie tropes that are easy to digest.

As of this writing, you can stream Stay Tuned for free on Tubi.

Tonight, I walked out of the movie theater with a huge grin on my face. To my surprise and astonishment, the new Masters of the Universe was an absolute blast: it brought the original He-Man cartoon to life with vivid performances, dynamic designs, and seemingly endless action. As an added bonus, the movie kept old-school fans’ heads on a swivel from beginning to end. Why is that? Because of all the Easter eggs!

Basically, this new movie is a love letter to all things He-Man, new and old. Accordingly, practically every scene is brimming with homages to different decades of the franchise. There are more homages than I could count, and even if I could, we’d be here all day. To save us both some time, I rounded up my favorite Easter eggs; the ones that made me want to bust out my Castle Grayskull playset and start posing all my old toys. Ready for your own “good journey?” Keep reading to discover the coolest fan service Easter eggs in Masters of the Universe!

Toys To Men

Weirdly enough, the biggest nexus of nostalgic Easter eggs in Masters of the Universe is the comics and collectibles store where Prince Adam goes to find his magic sword. The store is named The Fright Zone, which is actually an homage to He-Man’s sister, She-Ra. She battles a villain named Hordak, and he operates out of a creepy gothic metropolis known as the Fright Zone.

The interior of this store also prominently displays Big Jim toys. Big Jim was the name of a Mattel brand that came out long before He-Man. In fact, one of Big Jim’s toy designs was later modified to be Cringer, whom He-Man periodically transforms into Battle Cat. Finally, Prince Adam has to wrestle the sword out of the hands of a life-size barbarian. That barbarian may look like Conan, but he’s actually Torak, a character created by franchise designer Mark Taylor. Later, this character’s design was modified to become He-Man, meaning our hero had to wrestle himself for the sword of power!

It’s A Pig Man, Jerry (And Friends)

At one point in Masters of the Universe, Skeletor is being doted on by a subservient pig man. His appearance made my wife lean over and utter the Seinfeld quote that we share frequently around my house: “he’s a pig man, Jerry, a mutant pig man!” Later, I told her how this guy’s appearance was a weirdly meta Easter egg. The original Masters of the Universe movie held a contest for one lucky fan to have a walk-on appearance, and young Richard Szponder got to play the role of a diminutive Pigboy.

In fact, he’s one of several characters from the 1987 movie who make a cameo in Masters of the Universe. Another character is Karg, a kind of monster-faced guy who could benefit from some Just For Men. But the coolest cameo from the original movie is an appearance from original live-action He-Man actor Dolph Lundgren. He does some banter with the new He-Man actor Nicholas Galitzine (“you’re here to take my spot!”), offers some sage advice, and even says goodbye with the weird farewell phrase of the earlier film: “Good journey!”

The final major homage to the first Masters of the Universe movie is also the most dramatic. At one point in the new film, Skeletor appears as a hologram in the sky, issuing a challenge to the newly emerged He-Man. This is an Easter Egg reference to the original movie, in which Frank Langella’s Skeletor broadcasts his own message throughout Eternia. While Langella is an all-time great, Jared Leto deserves credit for making his own sky hologram appearance that much scarier (and, if we’re being honest), that much more dramatic.

Kneeling Before The Goddess

While the new Masters of the Universe has the tonal silliness of movies like Thor: Ragnarok, it still tries to be a more grounded version of the bonkers original cartoon. That left writers and producers with a distinct challenge: how do you have grown-ass men and women going by the names mentioned earlier in the toyline and in the animated series? The movie sidesteps this issue by revealing that Prince Adam gave nicknames to everyone he knew (like “Fisto” for the guy with the big fist, and “Ram Man” for the, uh, man who rams). He even gave himself the aspirational nickname “He-Man,” representing his desire to be more masculine.

One of the more confusing code names is Teela, whom a sheepish Adam admits he called “warrior goddess.” The movie jokingly plays this off as a manifestation of the young man’s fixation on this woman’s strength and beauty. However, this is a meta Easter egg referencing the He-Man minicomics that came packaged with the toys before the cartoon came out. Back then, there wasn’t a separate Sorceress character, so Teela was a literal warrior goddess who roamed Eternia, counting down the days until she would rule Castle Grayskull.

Killer Post-Credits Easter Eggs (Spoilers Past Here; You Have Been Warned!)

Ok, I hate to interrupt your good journey, but let’s make one thing very clear: there are some major spoilers from this point on. Masters of the Universe has two mid-credits scenes and one post-credits scene, all of which offer powerful hints about where this franchise will be going in the future. If you haven’t seen the movie and wish to remain unspoiled, smash that back button. Otherwise, keep reading to discover the immaculate Easter eggs hidden in these scenes!

The first “mid” credits scene occurs almost right away. It features Orko, the red-robed wizard from the cartoon, telling us what lessons Prince Adam learned in the movie. On the broadest level, this mid-credits scene serves as a notice that Orko will likely pop up in any and all future sequels. But his appearance is also a reference to the original He-Man cartoon, which always had Orko tell us the story’s primary lesson. Filmation added these public service announcement-style messages to please networks, parents, and other critics who opposed the idea of making an entire TV show just to sell toys.

The final, post-credits scene features Evil-Lyn retrieving Skeletor’s severed head; between this and his signature cackle, we know he’s still alive, which is likely an homage to the original Masters of the Universe having its own post-credits scene, which revealed that Skeletor was still alive. While that’s a fun Easter egg unto itself, it’s also interesting to remember that the first He-Man movie was doing universe-changing post-credits scenes 21 years before the first MCU movie ever hit theaters!

None of this is as interesting as the middle credits scene, which featured She-Ra, He-Man’s cousin, getting ready to fight the Evil Horde, who had brainwashed her. Her appearance here is a minor miracle because He-Man is owned by Mattel, and She-Ra is (at least, when it comes to film and TV) owned by Dreamworks. The companies don’t usually get along, which is why He-Man makes no appearance in the DreamWorks She-Ra series and She-Ra doesn’t make an appearance (not a recognizable one, anyway) in Kevin Smith’s He-Man cartoons. Now, it seems these companies have reached a Disney/Sony-style deal, and DreamWorks is finally happy to let She-Ra loose on the world of live-action sci-fi.

I hope you are free from work or school right now, because Netflix just added some movies that are perfect for lazy, summertime viewing.

I’m not a huge fan of weddings, but I like watching them in movies, and underrated Debra Messing rom-com The Wedding Date has a doozy of a ceremony filled with lots of drama, romance and chiffon. My God, the chiffon!

I stink at baseball, which is probably why I like the sports fantasy Rookie of the Year. Like its kid protagonist, it lets me live out my long-dormant fantasy of becoming a world-famous pitcher.

If you’re a sports fan, chances are you’ve seen Rocky. Sylvester Stallone’s inspirational Oscar winner is back on Netflix in June, as well as all of its sequels and the Creed spinoffs with Michael B. Jordan, so now’s a good time to relive a bona fide classic.

‘The Wedding Date’ (2005)

Kat Ellis (Messing) has a champagne problem — she’s been invited to her half-sister Amy’s (Amy Adams) fancy wedding in London, and she doesn’t have anyone to accompany her. Since her ex-fiancé is going to be there, she wants a handsome man on her arm to make him jealous, so out of desperation, she hires male escort Nick (Dermot Mulroney), who has the goods to make any man envious. Once they arrive at the ceremony, Kat discovers Nick is worth every penny and begins to fall for him. But love might be too high a price to pay for both of them, and their wedding date could turn into a disaster even messier than a divorce.

It’s pretty common for people to take summer vacations, but for most streamers, there’s still work to do — and new content to release. Netflix is the world’s most popular streamer for a reason, and the platform is about to drop some of 2026’s most anticipated titles. The live-action adaptation of the wildly popular animated […]

Released at the height of the 2000s rom-com craze, The Wedding Date didn’t get the attention it deserved. Seen today, it’s a winning comedy with a high concept: what if the person who works for you is the one you fall in love with? Sure, Nick is a sex worker, but he still has a heart, and his time with Kat makes him realize he wants more than just money and momentary pleasure. If you’re familiar with Messing from Will & Grace, be prepared for a mild surprise when you watch her in The Wedding Date. Her Kat is more cynical and desperate than her kooky Grace, and she shows impressive range even in a fluffy rom-com like this one.

The Wedding Date is streaming on Netflix.

‘Rookie of the Year’ (1992)

Henry Rowengartner (Thomas Ian Nicholas) is a pre-teen Little Leaguer who is terrible at playing baseball. When he breaks his right arm during a game, he thinks his luck can’t get any worse. It turns out, she’s right — after his arm heals, he discovers he has an uncanny ability to pitch no-hitters. When he shows off his newfound talent at a Chicago Cubs game, he’s immediately hired by the team’s manager, Sal (Albert Hall), who is desperate to turn his team’s bad fortunes around. While Henry helps the Cubs get closer to reaching the World Series, he’s still just a kid, and he’s way in over his head playing an adult game with high stakes.

Hollywood doesn’t make mid-budget, high-concept films like Rookie of the Year anymore, and that’s a shame. The film isn’t groundbreaking, but it’s amiable and good-natured, kinda like Henry himself. There’s a cute subplot involving Henry’s mom being romanced by a veteran pitcher who Henry is replacing, and the climax, which involves the usual “Big Game” trope, is different enough to be a little surprising — and surprisingly touching.

‘Rocky’ (1976)

Netflix just added all the Rocky and Creed movies at the beginning of the month, and while some are better than others, nothing beats the Oscar-winning original. The seminal 1976 film stars a then-unknown Sylvester Stallone as the titular character, an Italian-American nobody who is picked by heavyweight boxing champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) to fight him in a highly publicized upcoming match. Rocky is seriously out of his depth, but with the support of his trainer Mickey (Burgess Meredith) and his shy girlfriend Adrian (Talia Shire), he has a fighting shot at pulling off the impossible — beating Apollo and escaping his lower-class lifestyle.

Winner of the 1976 Best Picture Oscar, Rocky stands alone as the most inspiring — and inspirational — movie ever made. Most of the credit should be given to Stallone, who also wrote the screenplay and made Rocky into an underdog hero everyone could root for. Even though the film has been ripped off and parodied for nearly half a century, it remains as fresh and vital as it was in 1976. After you watch, you’ll feel like you can take on anyone, even Apollo Creed. (Reader, please don’t do that.)
