Lewis Hamilton Credits Kim Kardashian For His Happiness
Lewis Hamilton had the crowd smiling ahead of the British Grand Prix after a playful fan question led him to give his girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, a rare public shoutout.
The Ferrari star was speaking on stage at Silverstone when the lighthearted exchange took an unexpected turn, prompting laughter from both Hamilton and the audience.
While the seven-time world champion praised his new team, he also made sure to credit one very special person for his recent happiness.
Lewis Hamilton took to the fan stage at Silverstone on Thursday alongside Oliver Bearman, Lando Norris, Arvid Lindblad, and George Russell ahead of the Formula 1 British Grand Prix.
During the Q&A session, one fan couldn’t resist asking the question many had been wondering about. “You’ve been a happier man recently why’s that? Could that be a girlfriend?” the fan asked per the Daily Mail.
Before Hamilton could answer, broadcaster David Croft jumped in with a joke that immediately drew laughter from the crowd.
“You know why he’s asking? He just needs to know if Kimi needs two towels or not,” Croft quipped. Hamilton laughed before replying, “Yeah – that’s a good one.”
The 41-year-old initially shifted the conversation toward his career, speaking proudly about joining one of Formula 1’s most iconic teams.
“Once you spend a year with this team, Ferrari is the most iconic team of all time, and they’ve had a difficult period of time,” he said.
Hamilton Praises Ferrari Before Giving Kardashian A Sweet Nod
Although Lewis Hamilton spent much of his answer reflecting on Ferrari’s progress, he didn’t ignore the question entirely. He praised the team for embracing him during a challenging first season.
“It’s such an amazing team and they’ve been so welcoming. The first year was obviously very tough but to finally see the hard work we’ve been putting in, it’s finally get us back to where we want to be,” he said.
Then, with a smile, Hamilton gave the answer many fans had been waiting for. “And of course, of course it’s Kim,” he added.
The heartfelt moment came during a busy day at Silverstone, where M&S hosted its first-ever fashion takeover on the circuit’s famous pit lane.
Several celebrities attended the event, including Jodie Kidd and “Made In Chelsea” star Oliver Proudlock, adding even more glamour to one of Formula 1’s biggest race weekends.
Lewis Hamilton’s Girlfriend Finally Addresses The Famous Towel Incident
Hamilton’s playful comment also revived memories of one of Formula 1’s most talked-about viral moments involving Kim Kardashian.
Following Kimi Antonelli’s Monaco Grand Prix victory earlier this year, the socialite attracted attention after cameras captured her picking up a towel left for the young Mercedes driver.
After grabbing the towel, she removed her sunglasses and wiped her face following the traditional champagne celebrations.
The moment quickly spread across social media and even Mercedes decided to join the fun. In a video released by the team, Antonelli jokingly asked, “I was wondering, have you seen my towel?”
Another clip later showed the 19-year-old climbing out of his car after practice, before once again asking, “Have you seen my towel?”
This time, he was handed a fresh white towel embroidered with the words, “To Kimi from Kim.” Wrapping it around his neck, Antonelli smiled and replied, “Thank you Kim.”
Hamilton And Kardashian’s Romance Has Continued To Grow
Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian were first romantically linked earlier this year, but the British Grand Prix marked the couple’s first public outing filled with noticeable displays of affection.
Since their relationship became public, the pair have reportedly enjoyed several trips together, including a getaway to Japan, a weekend at Estelle Manor in England’s Cotswolds, and a visit to Paris in early February.
They also made headlines during the 2026 Super Bowl when they appeared together on the stadium’s giant screen during the game between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks.
Although both have enjoyed high-profile relationships in the past, sources believe this romance is built on a much stronger foundation.
“Because their relationship started with a friendship first, those closest to them believe this could be the endgame for them both,” one source told Us Weekly.
The insider added, “They are both very committed to making things work no matter how long the distance is or how busy they are.”
Lewis Hamilton And Kim Kardashian Are Reportedly Taking Things Seriously
As their relationship continues to develop, those close to the couple say Kardashian is equally invested.
The SKIMS founder, who shares children North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm with ex-husband Kanye West, is reportedly making time for Hamilton despite their demanding schedules.
A source recently told PEOPLE, “[Lewis is] just an easy-going guy with great energy. Her family likes him and Kim’s very into him.”
The insider added that although both stars have busy careers, they continue to prioritize seeing each other whenever possible.
According to the source, the pair have “more than just a casual connection. It takes a lot to capture Kim’s interest and she’s definitely intrigued.”

Ahead of the premiere of Netflix’s new take on “Little House,” we’re looking back on the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of the beloved original series.
Marvel fans have had a surplus of Disney Plus content to enjoy this year, including two live-action shows in Wonder Man and Daredevil: Born Again. The former stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley, and after shattering expectations as a binge drop, Marvel shocked the world by renewing the series for Season 2. The latter stars Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio, and after another successful season, Marvel is already shooting the third, which is bringing back even more Defenders. Marvel fans are also preparing to return to theaters for the first MCU movie of 2026 with Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which is expected to lead directly into Avengers: Doomsday on December 18. However, before sitting down with a large popcorn and your favorite drink in the theater, Marvel’s highest-rated project of all time is here to help bridge the gap.
The series in reference is X-Men ‘97, which returned earlier this week with its long-awaited second season after a two-year hiatus. Marvel fans are also hard at work analyzing potential connections to other projects, and some viewers have called attention to an MCU film from all the way back in Phase Two of the Infinity Saga. During the credits at the end of X-Men ‘97 Season 2, Episode 3, fans noticed that Magneto’s voice actor, Matthew Waterson, was credited with another role, the Celestial, Eson. While Eson did not appear in the 2021 Celestial-centric Marvel film, Eternals, he was seen in a different Marvel project. Eson, who once wielded the Power Stone, showed up in a brief flashback during Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 1 in 2014. Eson is also the main villain of the Guardians of the Galaxy ride at Disney World. It’s also important to note that Waterson is far from the only voice actor in X-Men ’97 to voice multiple characters. Ross Marquand voices both Professor X and Apocalypse, while Jennifer Hale is the voice of Jean Grey and more than five other characters.
Is Marvel Making Another ‘Eternals’ Movie?
The latest reporting on a potential sequel to Eternals was that the film was planned at one point but shelved after the original movie underwhelmed at the box office and was so divisive among fans. Marvel invested $200 million into the making of Eternals, and the studio certainly would have liked to see it make more than $402 million globally, especially considering this was well short of its break-even point. Only time will tell if Marvel has bigger plans for the Eternals in Avengers: Doomsday or another future project.
Check out the first three episodes of X-Men ‘97 Season 2 on Disney Plus and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the show.

1
‘Survival of the Thickest’ (2023–2026)
Rotten Tomatoes: 93% | IMDb: 7.5/10
In a weekend likely to be dominated by the arrival of Millie Bobby Brown‘s Enola Holmes 3, there’s another returning female star for a third installment that you shouldn’t miss. Survival of the Thickest, the Michelle Buteau-led series that debuted in 2023, follows the newly single Mavis as she tries to reinvent her life alongside her chosen family, including her besties Khalil (Tone Bell) and Marley (Tasha Smith).
Created by Buteau and Danielle Sanchez Witzel, and an adaptation of the former’s collection of essays of the same name, Survival of the Thickest is one of the most underrated shows on Netflix, intelligently moving between over-the-top comedy and heartwarming laughs. Buteau is excellent throughout, supported by I May Destroy You alum Marouane Zotti as Luca, Tone Bell as Khalil, and many others.
2
‘Bloodline’ (2015–2017)
Rotten Tomatoes: 62% | IMDb: 7.8/10
Don’t miss out on one of the most criminally underrated shows on Netflix this weekend. First airing in 2015 as one of Netflix’s earliest original drama series, Bloodline follows the Rayburn family, a highly respected group in their local community, as the skeletons in their closet are ripped out after the black sheep of the family returns home.
Featuring a stand-out performance from Ben Mendelsohn, alongside the likes of Kyle Chandler, Linda Cardellini, and Norbert Leo Butz, Bloodline twists and turns its way through 33 gripping episodes across three seasons. A family drama seeped in tension, the show was an enormous hit with critics, even winning a Primetime Emmy in 2016 for Mendelsohn’s lead performance, among many other nominations.
3
‘Interview With the Vampire’ (2022–Present)
Rotten Tomatoes: 99% | IMDb: 7.6/10
Back on June 7, one of the most addictive fantasy series on streaming finally returned for a third season, titled The Vampire Lestat. Interview with the Vampire, developed by Rolin Jones and adapted from Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles novels, sprinkles a modern twist on the original, as Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson) invites Pulitzer-winning reporter Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian) to his home to tell his life’s story.
Although the Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise-led movie is a worthy rendition of the source material, this is the closest to perfection yet, both honoring its original and taking smart creative liberties. The latest season takes yet another bold swing and has earned enormous praise from critics, including Collider’s Carly Lane, who wrote that Season 4 is “both a sharp pivot from the straightforwardly formal interview that preceded it and a chaotically thrilling continuation of the existing story.”

Your friendly neighborhood wallcrawler is caught in a web of mystery in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. In the time since we last saw Tom Holland‘s Peter Parker, he’s tangled with a rogues’ gallery of villains that has grown to include the Scorpion (Michael Mando) and a handful of assassins like Boomerang, Tarantula, and the Hand ninjas. The shadowy Daredevil adversaries seem to be the focus of Det. Jean DeWolff’s (Liza Colón-Zayas) investigation into a string of crimes across New York City, but like any good detective story, the red-clad Hand ninjas could be a red herring for another secret Spider-Man villain from Marvel comic book lore.
Spider-Man’s Easter egg-filled evidence board was on display for a limited time at Peter Parker’s apartment pop-up in Brooklyn, offering the first look at crime boss Tombstone (Marvin “Krondon” Jones III) and a masked man wearing glasses and a suit. That appears to be the Rose, who in the comics is the alter ego of Richard Fisk, son of Spider-Man/Daredevil archnemesis and Kingpin of Crime Wilson Fisk.
How ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Sets Up ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’
Spoiler warning for Daredevil: Born Again season 2. By the end of the Marvel Television show’s second season, Peter’s former lawyer Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) outed himself as the vigilante Daredevil in order to take down Mayor Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) in a court of law. With Murdock in jail and Fisk in self-exile, it seems the absence of both the Man Without Fear and the Kingpin of Crime leads to a resurgent Hand, as well as a power vacuum that Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) found himself dealing with in The Punisher: One Last Kill.
Enter the Rose. While the circumstances were different, the Born Again storyline from Marvel’s Daredevil comics saw the Kingpin implicated in a crime that ended Fisk’s facade as a legitimate businessman. The aftermath of Born Again unfolded in issues of The Amazing Spider-Man, in which multiple Spider-Man villains — including the Rose and the Hobgoblin — battled to become the new Kingpin of Crime in Fisk’s absence.
‘Spider-Man’s Brand New Villain Could Be the MCU’s Biggest Yet
Here are some Spider-Man villains to get those Spidey-senses tingling…
A Secret ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Villain Is the MCU’s Kingpin Replacement
After the Kingpin disappeared, 1987’s Amazing Spider-Man #284 marked the start of “Gang War,” a five-part arc by writers Tom DeFalco and Jim Owsley and artists Ron Frenz and Brett Breeding. Fisk’s son Richard, having previously adopted a masked identity as the Schemer in a plot to subvert his father’s criminal empire, eventually donned the purple mask of the Rose as the leader of his own criminal syndicate.
In his role as a recurring Spider-Man villain of the 1980s, the Rose sought to undermine the Kingpin and formed a shaky alliance with the Hobgoblin. Fisk’s disappearance created a power vacuum that left the city’s crime lords, like the Rose, Silvermane, and Hammerhead, fighting for control over the New York City underworld, while the Kingpin’s right-hand man (alias the Arranger) was left in charge of his organization.
The Arranger, um, arranged attacks on the cyborg crime lord Silvio “Silvermane” Manfredi and the metal-skulled mobster Hammerhead, hiring the costumed mercenary Jack O’Lantern to take out his rivals. Meanwhile, Rose’s enforcer was the Hobgoblin, who planned his own coup to take over the underworld.
After ‘Brand New Day,’ ‘Spider-Man 5’ Could Cross Over With Daredevil and the Punisher
While Spider-Man turns to Castle for help in Brand New Day, a trigger-happy Punisher was more antagonist than ally when he crossed paths with a black-suited Spider-Man during the gang war. (Peter took to wearing a cloth version of his new costume after learning it was a living alien: a symbiote.) Spider-Man also came to blows with Daredevil during “Gang War” when the arachnid avenger intervened to put an end to the escalating violence as it spilled over into the streets — risking innocents getting caught in the crossfire.
The Punisher fought Spider-Man over his interference in the war, which Castle saw as an opportunity for the rival gangs to wipe themselves out. (The gun-toting vigilante would, of course, pick off the rest.) Spider-Man stopped Punisher from killing the gang lords during a meeting at Fisk’s headquarters, leaving the wallcrawler to wrestle with whether he’s responsible for the deaths that might be prevented if he allowed a bazooka-firing Punisher to put a swift end to the war.
Murdock also objected to Spider-Man’s intervention in the gang war. The blind lawyer argued that their mutual enemy must be allowed to return to New York due to the Kingpin’s stabilizing influence over the underworld, and that Fisk should be brought to justice through legal means. Once the Kingpin officially returned from Europe in Amazing Spider-Man #287, it was revealed Fisk knew the Rose’s secret identity as he put into motion a plan to end the feud with his son and the weeks-long gang war.
If Kingpin Isn’t the ‘Spider-Man 5’ Villain, It Could Be a ‘Brand New’ Foe
Amazing Spider-Man #288 saw Spider-Man, Daredevil, Black Cat, and the Falcon team up in the conclusion to “Gang War.” The Punisher planned to ambush a meeting of Kingpin’s lieutenants, who Fisk planned to offer to the police as a token gesture for aiding his return. (The ruse allowed Fisk to smuggle his wife, Vanessa Fisk, safely out of the city after an attempt on her life.) It turned out that Spider-Man was a pawn used by both Daredevil and Fisk, who ultimately ended the gang war while retaking his place as Kingpin of a decimated criminal empire.
The pieces are there for similar events to take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, albeit with some major changes: Ayelet Zurer’s Vanessa is off the proverbial chess board, and unlike her comic book counterpart, the Daredevil villainess didn’t share a son with Fisk. So who could be the Rose in Spider-Man: Brand New Day? If not Richard Fisk, a potential alternative is Byron “Butch” Pharris, Wilson Fisk’s illegitimate son from the comics who once replaced him as the new Kingpin.

A dead baby was found at a music festival in Rothbury, Michigan, on Sunday (June 28). According to CBS News, the deceased child was found in the portable bathroom at the Electric Forest music festival on June 28.

Dead Baby Found Inside Porta-Potty By An Employee
According to the Michigan State Police, the infant was a neonate, meaning it was less than 4 weeks old. An employee of the porta-potty vendor reportedly found the dead baby “during routine maintenance” in the camping area of the festival. Michigan State Police Lieutenant Patrick Agema initially told TMZ that it was unknown whether the baby was born alive. The autopsy report allegedly hasn’t been turned over to local police. The Electric Forest is held annually at the Double JJ Resort and the discovery was made on the festival’s final day. At this time, there are no leads in the investigation.
Baby’s Cause Of Death Remains Unclear
Additionally, Lt. Agema told the outlet that a forensic pathologist performed an autopsy on the baby. However, the cause of death hasn’t released. The Michigan State Police is also requesting that anyone with information pertinent to the investigation contact the authorities.
“The Michigan State Police continue to investigate the discovery of a deceased neonate found Sunday morning in the camping area at the Electric Forest Festival,” read a statement from theMSP. “Investigators are asking for the public’s assistance. If you were in the area and observed anything unusual, or if you have information that you believe may be relevant, we encourage you to come forward. Anyone with information is asked to contact Michigan State Police.”
Sources speaking to NBC affiliate, Wood TV 8, revealed that authorities allegedly found the baby’s placenta and umbilical cord inside the porta potty, suggesting it might’ve been born there. Allegedly, the autopsy report cites fluid found in the infant‘s stomach and lungs.
Authorities Haven’t Classified The Death As A Homicide
The Michigan State Police are still investigating the death, but they haven’t classified the death as a homicide. Retired Michigan State Police detective Lew Langham spoke with FOX 17 News, and he said the investigators are likely looking for the mother.
“What police are actually looking for are persons of interest,” said Langham. “What happened, who was it and why did they do this?”

What Do You Think Roomies?
Protest music has been a constant in the industry since its beginning. Just like any art, music is a form of expression, and the thoughts and feelings expressed often stem from the situations in the world around us. Like any piece of art, music is up for interpretation, and this is part of its beauty. However, this means that some people will interpret music without fully understanding it. Ascribing a meaning to a song without fully dissecting the lyrics. This is the case for many political anthems throughout rock music. “Born in the USA” by Bruce Springsteen often gets discussed around the Fourth of July, as it stands out as a prime example of a critique of America that gets propped up as patriotic. Another great example of this, however, comes from earlier in rock’s history. A song often associated with American forces descending into the Vietnam War, that’s really advocating for anything but, “Fortunate Son” by Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR).
The True Meaning of “Fortunate Son”
“Fortunate Son,” like many CCR songs, is the product of legendary songwriter John Fogerty. What makes “Fortunate Son” so resonant is its raw simplicity and vitriolic anger. The track’s first verse establishes people “born to wave the flag” who are “red, white, and blue,” However, when the government arrives (“the band plays Hail to the Chief,”) these same people throw you into danger for their own personal gains, or for the “greater good of the country” (“They’ll point the cannon at you.”)
In this case, Fogerty is referencing the Vietnam War draft and “draft dodgers”. From 1964 to 1973, all men between the ages of 18 and 26 had to register to be drafted. This was a lottery system where, by birthdate, men were forced to enlist in the United States Military to fight the Vietnam War. Many men attempted to avoid military service by any means possible, but this was easiest for those who had an immense amount of privilege and power. Some of these men were allegedly able to use financial and political connections to stave off military service altogether or join the military in a role that’d exclude them from the frontline conflict of Vietnam.
The Real Target of “Fortunate Son”
Due to the popularity of “Fortunate Son,” there has been a lot of speculation about the “true subject” of the song. These theories have not been helped by the fact that the most direct hint Fogerty drops in the song “I ain’t no senator’s son” is a red herring. According to Fogerty himself in an interview for the book Bad Moon Rising, “During the Vietnam War, these were the people who didn’t have to go to war. I was thinking about David Eisenhower, the grandson of (former President) Dwight, who married Julie Nixon.
This condemnation of one man can be extended to the entire role of class privilege in the Vietnam war. In an interview for Up Around The Bend: An Oral History of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Fogerty said, “I was mad at the specter of the ordinary kid who had to serve in an army in a war that he was very much against. Yet the sons of the well-to-do and powerful didn’t have to worry about those things. They were fortunate. I thought all these guys were running around saying, “It’s good for America,” — Nixon or whoever was saying this. Yet their kids ain’t going.” Eventually, Eisenhower did join the military in 1970, a year after the release of “Fortunate Son,” but was stationed aboard a ship in the Mediterranean as an officer.
The 10 Greatest Anti-War Songs of All Time, Ranked
These protests of war feel unfortunately timeless.
Pop Culture Dull’s the Edge of “Fortunate Son”
The popularity of the track at the time of release, being used to condemn the war, made it an overall standout of the era. Therefore, it came first of mind for directors wanting to invoke the time period musically. Most famously, the track features in Forrest Gump, as Gump, played by Tom Hanks, touches down to begin his service in Vietnam. The film does showcase some of the horrors of the Vietnam War, most notably with the death of Gump’s friend Bubba later on. When the song is used, though, it’s as a transition between a somber scene of Gump and his mother before he leaves for service to Gump’s arrival at camp. The scene is mostly accompanied by shots of helicopters, guns, and the fellow service members at the camp. This gives the track more of a set dressing feel, rather than addressing it’s commentary.
Due to the popularity of Forrest Gump, “Fortunate Son” has become known as the “Vietnam movie song,” even if it’s actual appearances in films are far fewer than that reputation would imply. The track’s first film appearance was in the documentary Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam (1987), which predates Forrest Gump by three years. It would then be used in films like Die Hard 4.0 (2007), Battleship (2012), Suicide Squad (2016), War Dogs (2016) and Logan Lucky (2017). While some of these are war movies, none of them are about Vietnam. Still, the song became associated as a soundtrack for the war. It was used in Battlefield: Vietnam which can be seen in a gag in Season 16, Episode 16 of Family Guy where Glen Quagmire tells Peter Griffin that the thing he was most unprepared for in Vietnam was the non-stop playing of “Fortunate Son.” This then cuts away to Quagmire in agony as the song plays in every waking, and sleeping moment of his time in Vietnam.
Misunderstanding of the Song in Modern Politics
“Fortunate Son” has continued to make headlines this decade, as in 2020, President Donald Trump used the song at a rally. The choice came under scrutiny because of how the song’s lyrics relate to Trump, not only in terms of his generational wealth, but also in how Trump has been accused of faking bone spurs in his feet to avoid serving in Vietnam. Fogerty commented on Trump’s use of the song, saying, “I find it confusing, I would say, that the president has chosen to use my song for his political rallies, when in fact it seems like he is probably the Fortunate Son.” The discourse around this use by Trump and his team shows that there is still a misunderstanding of the track that survives to this day.
The song still remains a Fourth of July classic. In some ways, protest rock, calling out the flaws in the system with the intent of fixing them, is exactly what the Declaration of Independence served to do 250 years ago. However, using the track as a blatant pro-America anthem is disingenuous to the original point of the song.

HBO is one of the few networks that has valued quantity over quality, which may explain why its output as a distributor has been so consistently strong. While rival streamers attempt to pack their libraries with as much content as possible, HBO has given time to its showrunners to develop the best stories possible. While it can sometimes be irritating to wait several years for a new season of a highly anticipated show, the benefit is that there aren’t as many significant disappointments.
HBO has only a few long-running shows that expanded for too many seasons, as many of its best programs were either short-lived series or miniseries limited events. The fact that they were able to do so much in a small amount of time speaks to the economics of storytelling and how avoiding bloat can be an effective storytelling decision.

‘Band of Brothers’ (2001)
Band of Brothers is perhaps the greatest miniseries ever made, and definitely the most immersive and well-rounded exploration of World War II. Although trying to fit the greatest conflict in the history of the human race into a single, ten-episode series would have been a challenge, Band of Brothers made the smart decision to follow the perspective of the men in “Easy Company” from their early days in training camp to Japan’s surrender in 1945.
Band of Brothers featured a terrific ensemble that felt particularly realistic because the cast went to a real boot camp in order to prepare for their roles and develop the type of friendships that could be seen on screen. It’s a stunning achievement that is both informative and inspirational and will be remembered many years down the line as a perfect embodiment of American history.
9
‘The Pacific’ (2010)
The Pacific is a sequel of sorts to Band of Brothers that is also set in World War II but is focused on the Pacific theater of combat, which tended to be even more brutal. Unlike Band of Brothers, which began with the characters in boot camp, The Pacific follows the soldiers during their lives before the war, and even goes beyond to see how they struggle in the aftermath to deal with adjusting to normal life and coping with post-traumatic stress disorder.
The Pacific is a more well-rounded depiction of the heartlessness and senselessness of war that shows the brutal techniques used on both sides of the conflict. While not an easy series to watch, it does offer an important insight into what the “Greatest Generation” actually looked like and why the past might be doomed to repeat itself.
8
‘The Sympthazier’ (2024)
The Sympathizer is a wildly inventive spy thriller based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name, and was created by the legendary South Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook. Park is known for many provocative, dark films that use non-linear and experimental techniques to show human frailty, and The Sympathizer offers a complex portrayal of a North Vietnamese spy who goes undercover in the United States as the war escalates, leading to the fall of Saigon.
The Sympathizer looked at the terrifying code of silence within Communist regimes, but it also satirized American indulgence through a great performance by Robert Downey Jr., who plays multiple characters that represent different areas of corruption and intellectual fascism. Although there are some moments of dark humor, The Sympathizer is a sobering story about sacrificing oneself for the platonic ideal of a movement that might not actually exist.

‘DTF St. Louis’ (2026)
DTF St. Louis is a relatively new entry into HBO’s catalog of great miniseries, but it is already proving to have significant lasting power. While HBO has always done a great job at generating shows that offer a frank depiction of sexuality and human nature, DTF St. Louis is particularly clever in how it uses a murder mystery and flashback structure to explore a deteriorating marriage and one man’s quest to reach even the slightest degree of self-confidence.
DTF St. Louis features Emmy-worthy performances from its entire cast, with David Harbour having the standout role as Floyd, a sign language translator for a weather station who discovers that his wife (Linda Cardellini) is having an affair with his best friend (Jason Bateman). Although the show has a very unique sense of humor, Harbour is able to ensure that Floyd himself is never treated as the butt of the joke.

‘Angels in America’ (2003)
Angels in America is the definitive portrayal of the AIDS crisis in media, as it adapted the Tony-award-winning play from the great Tony Kushner into a heartbreaking six-part series that explored the perspective of victims, artists, parents, politicians, and activists during the tragic era of the 1980s. Although the density of the material would have made it impossible to turn into a traditional cinematic adaptation, legendary film director Mike Nichols was able to ensure that the series attained a high degree of artistry.
Angels in America is a profound work of tonal balancing that combines grounded moments of intimacy with religious imagery and metaphorical content. It’s an achievement that was made to ensure that the memories of this lost generation would not be discounted or forgotten and remains an empathetic work of art that should continue to be celebrated.

‘The Night Of’ (2016)
The Night Of is a brilliant legal thriller that shows a nightmarish situation for a young Muslim man, played by Riz Ahmed, who is falsely accused of murdering a woman and sentenced to imprisonment as his trial lawyer (John Turturro) attempts to fight for his rights. It’s not only a compelling mystery in which the stakes can’t be higher but also a deeply disturbing exploration of the realities of xenophobia and police brutality within New York City.
Ahmed has rarely been better than he is in The Night Of as a relatively normal man who has his life transformed overnight, forcing him to air out his secrets as he pleads to be treated without bias. There haven’t been many recent legal dramas that have explored the realities of a court case in such a grounded way, as The Night Of is elevated beyond a procedural approach.

‘John Adams’ (2008)
John Adams is an outstanding biopic of the second President of the United States that features Paul Giamatti in one of his best performances ever. Although John Adams has a complex reputation among America’s commanders-in-chief, he was an important leader in the Continental Congress who pushed for the Thirteen Colonies to declare independence from Great Britain and was instrumental in preserving democracy during America’s early days as a nation.
John Adams is able to explore a remarkable amount of time without ever feeling rushed, as it begins by showing the titular figure’s relationship with Sam Adams (Danny Huston) during the Boston Massacre and follows through until the aftermath of his one term as President when he was ousted in the 1800 election. It’s not just a pitch-perfect series for history buffs but a great character study about ambition, justice, and the pursuit of the American dream.

‘Watchmen’ (2019)
Watchmen was a radical reinvention of one of the most famous graphic novels of all-time because it was not a straight adaptation. Instead, Damon Lindelof chose to create an original story that treated the original Alan Moore Watchmen as history and explored the aftermath of the devastating attack on New York City that sent all the former superheroes into hiding.
Watchmen is able to begin with an abstract mystery about murders linked to a mysterious cult that claims to follow in the footsteps of the vigilante Rorschach, but ends up tying in many of the classic characters in exciting ways. Although it is exciting to see these iconic superheroes reintroduced in such compelling ways, Watchmen is also able to make important political commentary on corruption and racism, and even succeeds in shedding light on the infamous Tulsa Race Massacre in the 1920s.

‘The Rehearsal’ (2022–2025)
The Reshearsal is one of the most complex and challenging endeavors that Nathan Fielder has ever embarked upon, which is saying something when considering how many lines he has crossed in the name of comedy. It would be insincere to describe The Rehearsal as just a comedy, as Fielder clearly has greater ambitions in mind; the first season of the show analyzes the art of performance as Fielder attempts to simulate what it would be like to be part of a family, and the second tackles a real issue regarding plane crashes by analyzing the behavior of pilots that could be cause for concern.
The Rehearsal is never willing to state outright when it is being satirical and how much of Fielder’s professed truthfulness should be believed, but it does feature some of the wildest and most unpredictable social experiments ever seen on television.

‘The Young Pope’ (2016)
The Young Pope is a show that has become even more relevant in recent months because it was made when the idea of an American becoming Pope of the Catholic Church was still unheard of. The fictional story by the legendary Italian filmmaker Paolo Sorrentino tells the story of an American cardinal (Jude Law) who is elected to the highest office in the Church due to infighting amongst the passions, and starts a radical new regime that could cause the entire faith to implode.
The Young Pope is a taut political drama that isn’t afraid to get genuinely surrealist and metaphorical, making it one of the rare works of television that actually feels like an arthouse film. While the first season tells a self-contained story, Sorrentino continued with his sequel series, The New Pope, starring John Malkovich and Law, four years later.
