Filming has wrapped on “Hershey,” director Mark Waters’ period drama about chocolate magnate Milton S. Hershey, clearing the way for a nationwide theatrical release in 2026 after six weeks on location across western Pennsylvania. Finn Wittrock plays the confectioner-turned-philanthropist opposite Alexandra Daddario as wife Catherine “Kitty” Hershey, with new castmates Alan Ruck, Richard Kind, David Costabile and Heléne Yorke portraying key figures in the entrepreneur’s life.

The $40 million production shot in Pittsburgh’s South Side, Ligonier and Harmony, where late-19th-century streetscapes were recreated with horse-drawn wagons and gas lamps. Waters, best known for “Mean Girls,” said the state’s “well-preserved historic settings and stunning landscapes” let the crew “transport viewers back to the turn of the century”. Speaking when the project was announced, he added that the film’s core is “the special love story between Milton and Catherine Hershey, who inspired his greatest legacy—the creation of the...

On Friday, May 30, the world learned that there's another Hadid sister — you know, the Hadid family of famous supermodels that includes former "Real Housewives" star Yolanda and her daughters Gigi and Bella. As it turns out, according to outlets including People Magazine, 23-year-old Parsons School of Design graduate Aydan Nix is half-sister to Bella and Gigi Hadid. Nix's mother, Terri Hatfield Dull, had a brief relationship with Bella and Gigi's father Mohamed Hadid after he split from their mother.

Also, this entire situation was literally a joke on "The Other Two."

HBO Max's often absurd, constantly heightened, and always hilarious showbusiness send-up "The Other Two," which ran from 2019 to 2023, literally centered part of an episode over the reveal of a third, never-before-seen Hadid sister. In the season 2 episode "Chase Guest-Edits Vogue," young pop star Chase Dreams (Case Walker) is invited to, well, guest-edit Anna Wintour's famous magazine, which...

Drew Tarver insists he’s not bothered that “The Other Two” only lasted for three seasons.

The Comedy Central/HBO Max sitcom, about millennial siblings Cary (Tarver) and Brooke Dubek (Heléne Yorke) dealing with their Justin Bieber-like younger brother’s worldwide fame, aired from 2019 to 2023.

“It felt like a good conclusion to those characters. I love that show,” Tarver tells me on the “Just for Variety” podcast. “I love Cary Dubek, but once he had just that really dark third season, it did feel like maybe this has come to a natural end. He’s kind of in a good place. Is he going to start bopping around and doing these storylines, trying to be an actor again? So, I was really happy with how it ended and his journey. But it was a really, really fun show.”

In Netflix’s “Running Point,” Kate Hudson’s Isla Gordon finds her biggest critics in her two brothers — played by Drew Tarver and Scott MacArthur — in a dynamic Tarver said the on-screen siblings found with ease.

“We immediately found a rapport as siblings,” Tarver told TheWrap, pointing to the first time he, Hudson and MacArthur hung out after work and grabbed drinks, He said that outing led into the sibling dynamic on the show as Tarver began “playing mediator pretty quickly.”

“Scotty was telling a story, and Kate was like, ‘Scotty, this story is too long’ — she was just immediately older-sistering him,” Tarver recalled. “I was in between the two of them, [saying] ‘yeah, it was a slightly long story … but Kate, let him get this out.'”

In “Running Point,” Tarver plays Sandy Gordon, the fourth Gordon sibling and the chief financial officer of the Waves who, despite more often...

Shailene Woodley made her Broadway debut with a ton of celebs in the audience supporting her!

The Emmy-nominated actress took her opening night bow in the new play Cult of Love on Thursday night (December 12) at the Hayes Theater in New York City.

Shailene is starring in the play alongside Zachary Quinto, Barbie Ferreira, Chris Lowell, Molly Bernard, and more.

Here’s the play’s synopsis: “It’s the holiday season for the Dahl family! The four adult children return to their childhood home with partners in tow. The Dahl traditions include singing carols in harmony at the drop of a hat, but the gathering is anything but harmonious. Old conflicts resurface, new issues battled, and dinner is taking absolutely forever to be served. Will the love the Dahls have for each other be enough to get them through, or will this be their last Christmas together?”

Brenda Song, Scott MacArthur, and Drew Tarver are all joining the show alongside previously announced series lead Kate Hudson. The untitled series received a 10-episode order at Netflix in June 2021.

The official logline states, “When a scandal forces her brother to resign, Isla Gordon (Hudson) is appointed President of the Los Angeles Waves, one of the most storied professional basketball franchises, and her family business.

Not surprisingly, there are two crime shows with this distinction, both fronted by formidable female cops. The final season of the gripping Happy Valley (AMC+) centers on British Sgt.

The first day of the SAG-AFTRA strike kicked off with plenty of commotion and loads of signage.

SAG-AFTRA and WGA members across the United States rallied outside the offices of the studio giants to let everyone know the labor force would not be going to work today, or for any foreseeable future date, until a fair and equitable contract agreement had been met. SAG President Fran Drescher met her colleagues outside Netflix Studios, and had some words for Bob Iger.

In fact, lots of picketers had feelings about the Disney CEO’s recent statements, and that was reflected in a plethora of Iger-centric signs.

Despite the heat in Los Angeles, showrunner Mike Schur and actors Sean Astin and Ike Barinholtz marched outside of the Paramount lot. Actors Mandy Moore and Ben Schwartz were seen outside of Disney. Rosario Dawson was seen outside of Fox Studios and Matt Dallas, Chloe Fineman,...

Henry Cavill’s swan song as Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s high fantasy hit “The Witcher” is upon us. The British actor shocked fans late last year when it was announced he would depart the role of the white-haired witcher, who is a monster hunter-for-hire, after Season 3, which the streaming service is releasing in two parts.

The first five episodes arrived on the platform Thursday and found a frustrated Geralt taking Ciri (Freya Allan), a young princess with immense power who is linked to Geralt through destiny, into hiding to protect her from those who seek to capture her for political and magical gains. While in hiding, Ciri is working with the powerful sorceress Yennefer (Anya Chalotra), with whom Geralt has a, let’s say, complicated history, to learn to harness and control her powers.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains spoilers for the series finale of “The Other Two,” titled “Brooke & Cary & Curtis & Lance,” now streaming on Max.

In the season — and now, officially, the series — finale of “The Other Two,” Brooke Dubek (Heléne Yorke) makes an analogy. After months spent chasing proof she’s a good person, Brooke is finally set to win an award for a mental health fundraiser, but she’s terrified of a backlash. “Don’t you remember when Jameela Jamil launched that body positivity app and then everyone accused her of lying about being attacked by bees?” she asks. Her assistant does not.

“The Other Two” was a show for people who do remember the minutiae of minor celebrities and the social media skirmishes surrounding them. For three seasons, the series thrived on specificity, speaking directly to viewers who understood Brooke perfectly (and could throw out a few alternate Jamil...

In one of the silliest running gags of The Other Two’s third and final season, Cary (Drew Tarver) dates a Method actor whose commitment makes Jared Leto’s Suicide Squad antics look like child’s play. As Lucas (Fin Argus) slips from one role to the next, he inhabits each one 24/7 — adopting the personality, habits and even the backstory of whatever serial killer or Hallmark boyfriend he’s playing that week. It’s not until the finale that he stops working long enough for Cary to get a glimpse of the real Lucas, and when he does it turns out he’s not much of anyone at all.

Without a role to disappear into, Lucas is left to wander the forest naked and confused, so disconnected from his own identity that he’s surprised to learn he’s Australian. (“No wonder he books,” Cary mutters.) His booked-and-busy career is...

The Other Two has ended with the release of its third season finale earlier today on Max. The dark comedy series, created by Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider, will not return for a fourth season.

Starring Drew Tarver, Heléne Yorke, Case Walker, Ken Marino, and Molly Shannon, The Other Two follows a pair of siblings, actor Cary (Tarver) and former dancer Brooke (Yorke), as they deal with their younger brother's sudden rise to fame. Season three finds the pair dealing with their own fame.

The Other Two was cancelled shortly before its season finale, which is now its series finale. The Max comedy, which premiered in 2019, follows the exploits of fame-hungry siblings Brooke (Heléne Yorke) and Cary Dubek (Drew Tarver) after their younger brother Chase (Case Walker) becomes a famous pop star overnight. Season 3, which also stars Molly Shannon, Ken Marino, and Josh Segarra, premiered on May 4.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, Max announced that The Other Two was cancelled, fewer than 24 hours before the season 3 finale aired. Although this cancellation is unrelated, THR also reports that allegations have come out about creators and showrunners Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider (both Emmy nominees for writing on past Saturday Night Live seasons) creating a toxic workplace environment. Although Kelly and Schneider were cleared of wrongdoing following an official investigation, complaints against Kelly alleged verbal abuse and overworking the crew whereas Schneider was accused of enabling this behavior.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains spoilers for the series finale of “The Other Two,” titled “Brooke & Cary & Curtis & Lance,” now streaming on Max.

Farewell, “The Other Two.”

The day before it aired its Season 3 finale, co-creators Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider announced there will not be a fourth season of the beloved comedy series, adding that they “always knew” this was “where we wanted to end” the stories of Brooke and Cary Dubek.

In the series finale, the siblings, after nine episodes of selfishness and depravity, finally show up for the ones they love. On a desperate mission to win an Academy Award for playing gay Albert Einstein, Drew Tarver’s Cary chooses to take a break from acting — despite the movie landing Harry Styles as a love interest — in order to heal himself and repair his friendship with Curtis (Brandon Scott Jones). Meanwhile, as her famous family members’ talent manager,...

Note: This episode contains spoilers for “The Other Two” Season 3, Episode 10.

Romance and redemption abounded in the series finale of “The Other Two.” Though the third season of the Max comedy series saw Brooke (Heléne Yorke) and Cary Dubek (Drew Tarver) take a morally questionable turn at times, both siblings took the chance to make things right in the show’s concluding chapter.

For Brooke, that meant making a big sacrifice for her family and reuniting with her fiancé Lance (Josh Segarra). As Brooke and the family attended the Peabody Awards, where Brooke was set to win an award for her telethon for mental health awareness headlined by her brother ChaseDreams (Case Walker), a scandal erupted when Chase was caught trying to boost his album sales through the project. Controversy also swirled around Pat (Molly Shannon), after she mistakenly posted a series of tweets maligning her Ohio friends — and essentially...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for The Other Two Season 3 finale “Brooke & Cary & Curtis & Lance.”] The Other Two Season 3 has not been easy for Brooke (Heléne Yorke) and Cary (Drew Tarver), nor for those closest to them (Josh Segarra‘s Lance and Brandon Scott Jones‘ Curtis). But the finale leaves those key relationships in, if not a good place, a hopeful one. Brooke steps up and takes blame when when Pat (Molly Shannon) and Chase (Case Walker) come under fire. Pat problem is deleted tweets that paint her as a classist elitist with disdain for small town America. Meanwhile, Chase wins a Peabody for a mental health special while exploiting people struggling with mental health to sell albums. After Brooke reconnects with and is honest with Lance, the two reunite. Meanwhile, Cary realizes how he’s been acting and talks to Curtis and turns down the film he’d wanted to score him an Oscar. ...

The Other Two, Max’s beloved sitcom on the absurdity of celebrity culture, will not return for a fourth season. Rolling Stone has learned that “The Other Two creators have chosen to end the Max series with Season Three.”

The Other Two is ending at Max after three seasons. The Thursday, June 29 finale will be the last episode of the series. The cult favorite show stars Drew Tarver as Cary Dubek and Heléne Yorke as Brooke Dubek, the two elder siblings of teen brother, ChaseDreams (Case Walker), who became a pop music sensation overnight. Molly Shannon plays their mother, Pat. Both struggling artists, “the other two” Dubek siblings, struggle for their own fame in the comedy, which is a satire of Hollywood and the music industry. Ken Marino (Streeter), Josh Segarra (Lance), and Brandon Scott Jones (Curtis) also star. The Thursday, June 29 finale will be a clear end to the series. “It is bittersweet to say goodbye to the Dubek family after three seasons, but we always knew, both creatively and personally, that this was where we wanted to end their stories,” showrunners Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider said...

“The Other Two” is coming to a close after three seasons amid reports of a toxic workplace.

The beloved and critically acclaimed series will conclude with its current third season, making the June 29 episode the series finale. “The Other Two” was created by former “SNL” writers Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider, who shared a press statement clarifying the decision to end after Season 3 was not due to being canceled.

However, The Hollywood Reporter credited sources saying there were “multiple staff complaints” about showrunners Kelly and Schneider over the course of the production. Per the THR report, the Hr complaints stemmed from behavior on set and in the writers’ room, including allegations that Kelly “verbally abused writers and overworked crew and claims that Schneider enabled his behavior.”

A source tells IndieWire that the report was unfounded and not connected to the series ending. Max representatives did not provide comment to THR.

We’ve got bad news for fans of The Other Two: Thursday’s third season finale will now serve as the comedy’s series finale.

Co-showrunners Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider maintain that the seemingly abrupt decision to end the series was a creative one.

“The Other Two” will end with its third season on Max, TheWrap has confirmed.

The Hollywood satire series, which stars Heléne Yorke, Drew Tarver and Molly Shannon, will end with its Season 3 finale, which will air on Thursday. The decision to end the show came from creators Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider, according to an individual with knowledge who spoke with TheWrap.

“It is bittersweet to say goodbye to the Dubek family after three seasons, but we always knew, both creatively and personally, that this was where we wanted to end their stories,” Kelly and Schneider said in a joint statement. “And because we are quite literally out of ways to humiliate Drew Tarver, so what’s the point? We are deeply grateful to everyone (gays) who watched the show, to Max for giving us a second home and life, and to our writers, producers and crew, who gave so much of their time,...

The Other Two, the comedy series starring Heléne Yorke, Drew Tarver and Molly Shannon, is coming to a close with its third season on Max.

However, rather than being canceled, the decision was made by Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider, co-creators of the buzzy comedy, who said that they have run out of ways to “humiliate” Tarver.

“It is bittersweet to say goodbye to the Dubek family after three seasons, but we always knew, both creatively and personally, that this was where we wanted to end their stories,” the pair said. “And because we are quite literally out of ways to humiliate Drew Tarver, so what’s the point?”

The move comes ahead of the third-season finale, which sees Shannon’s billionaire mogul mom Pat and her ex-lover/manager Streeter (Ken Marino) strategize how to broach difficult conversations with her kids, Cary (Tarver) and Brooke (Yorke). The episode airs Thursday,...

“The Other Two” will not return for a fourth season, as series creators Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider announce that they “always knew” Thursday’s Season 3 finale is “where we wanted to end” the stories of Brooke and Cary Dubek.

Debuting on Comedy Central in 2019 before moving to HBO Max (and now Max), the series offered a scathing satire of Hollywood and the corruptive nature of fame. It starred Heléne Yorke and Drew Tarver as disillusioned millennial siblings Brooke and Cary, who attempt to make it in New York City after their teenage brother becomes a Justin Bieber-esque pop star and their mother a daytime TV host. In Season 3, Cary, an actor, finally works his way up to C-list celebrity status, while Brooke, after talent managing her famous family members, decides to leave the industry to “do good.”

The Other Two, the cult Max comedy about the inner workings of Hollywood, will conclude June 29 with its season three finale. The Hollywood Reporter has learned that the ending comes following multiple staff complaints about creators and showrunners Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider over the course of the production, though several insiders say that there is no causal connection between the complaints and the decision to end with season three.

Multiple sources involved with The Other Two confirm Kelly and Schneider were the subject of complaints to human resources over behavior on set and in the writers room. These include allegations that Kelly verbally abused writers and overworked crew and claims that Schneider enabled his behavior.

According to sources, the production conducted a formal investigation into the behavior, during which Kelly and Schneider were not permitted on set for a period. Kelly and Schneider were formally cleared of wrongdoing and allowed to return.

One of the best parts about The Other Two (there are so many!) is how funny and fun it is. And so TV Insider had to ask the cast — Drew Tarver (Cary), Heléne Yorke (Brooke), Molly Shannon (Pat), Ken Marino (Streeter), Case Walker (Chase), Josh Segarra (Lance), and Brandon Scott Jones (Curtis) — some more light-hearted questions (and one serious) about their characters when we caught up with them ahead of the third season (the finale drops June 29). As we’ve seen in the first nine episodes, there have been some highs and lows (especially the latter) for Cary and Brooke this season. “They’re hovering around their rock bottom, just kind of dipping their toe into the worst moment of their lives. And then this season, I think it becomes too much for the two of them to take, and they finally do reach full peak sadness,” Tarver noted. “I...

Barry (HBO)

Bill Hader’s hitman dramedy grew bleaker and more ambitious with each passing season. The final episodes expanded the scope of Barry’s destruction beyond his loved ones, beyond Hollywood and even beyond L.A.’s criminal underworld into the next generation, as embodied by his wide-eyed son. Meanwhile, the series also broadened its cultural critique to implicate not only the showbiz industry it so knowingly skewered, but the larger population of viewers like us, weaned on the sorts of antihero dramas Barry aimed to deconstruct.­­ — Angie Han

Beef (Netflix)

Beef‘s surgical eye for detail elevated what could have just been a playful comedy about two feuding strangers into one of the year’s most outrageously twisty, screamingly funny thrillers — while its curiosity and empathy turned it into one of the year’s most moving dramas. Here was a show that saw the ugliness in its characters...

Heléne Yorke knew playing Brooke Dubek in the third season of “The Other Two” would challenge her. The Max comedy series took a few chaotic turns this year, as it charted the Dubek family’s hilarious, at-times dark-sided climb to the top of Hollywood’s food chain.

From breaking off her engagement and becoming invisible — literally and metaphorically — at a Hollywood party, to almost chloroforming Ben Platt and accidentally setting an apartment on fire, the actress recalled feeling “flattered” that the show’s writers would trust her with material that “always ups the ante and makes things funny that feel so deeply sad.”

“It’s incredibly rare as an actor to be given the opportunity to give a 360 performance in that way,” Yorke told TheWrap ahead of the show’s Season 3 finale. “I can’t believe how lucky I am to be on this show and be given the opportunity to do that.

In our Q&a series Popsugar Crush, we get to know some of our favorite celebs' more intimate details - from their first celebrity crush to their best love advice. This month, we're crushing on "The Other Two," "Scream," and "She-Hulk" actor Josh Segarra.

Josh Segarra has had a big year. Last summer, he starred as Pug, a very sweet and kind lawyer, in Disney+'s "She-Hulk" alongside Tatiana Maslany. In March, he entered the "Scream" franchise as a new love interest for Sam (Melissa Barrera). And this May, he returned to Max's "The Other Two" for season three as Lance, the shoe designer-turned-nurse with a heart of gold.

In this week's episode of "The Other Two," released June 22, Lance's ex Brooke (Heléne Yorke) discovers that he's been named People's Sexiest Man Alive - and she absolutely loses her mind. Segarra's own reaction was more subdued. "I texted my mom and my sister,...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for The Other Two Season 3 Episode 9 “Cary Pays Off His Student Loans.”] Could Brooke (Heléne Yorke) and Lance (Josh Segarra) find their way back together on The Other Two? It won’t be easy. After all, in the latest episode, she breaks into his apartment, determined to prove that he hired a PR team to get him the cover of People Magazine, ends up wearing prosthetics and hiding out when his extended family stops by, and sets a fire in his building in her attempt to escape without being seen. Lance is the hero who makes sure everyone gets out safely. Here, Segarra talks about filming this episode and teases the June 29 finale. Something I love about Lance is the fact that he’s such a good guy and so sweet, and this episode really highlights that. We can see why he put his extended family group chat as his PR team.

Talking to Heléne Yorke really doesn’t feel like an interview. Sure, during a Friday afternoon Zoom we mostly focus on The Other Two, the criminally underrated Max comedy she stars in, but there’s enough bantering about life and mom things that it quickly shifts into chatting. And it certainly doesn’t hurt that she’s funny and relatable, not entirely unlike her on-screen persona.

One half of the titular Two, Brooke Dubek is a former professional dancer who’s searching for her purpose and examining her identity after her youngest brother becomes a pop sensation overnight. At this point in the series’ third season, she’s managing the careers of ChaseDreams (Case Walker) and her mother-turned-media mogul Pat Dubek (Molly Shannon) after temporarily leaving the industry because the pandemic made her feel guilty about not being a professional do-gooder, and middle child Carey (Drew Tarver) is on the...

Heléne Yorke has one word that comes to mind when describing her character, Brooke Dubek, in the third season of the Max series, “The Other Two,” and that is insecurity. “I think that she’s displaying her truest, deepest, darkest insecurity in this season. She’s gone about things confidently, blindly and I think this season she gets existential in a way and goes down a path that she can’t get out of,” she tells Gold Derby during our recent webchat (watch the exclusive video interview above). She attributes this to the wide variety of humor that show creators Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider bring to the show and its characters. “I would be more surprised if I was not surprised by the creators of the show. I think they are incredibly deft in the writing and their storytelling.”

“The Other Two,” which is currently streaming on Max, centers on two siblings,...

Drew Tarver is not oblivious to how Cary Dubek on “The Other Two” has been going in a very unsavory direction. “I feel like Cary has always been dipping his toe in a little bit of bad behavior of finding himself giving into his desperation over the first two seasons,” he reveals to Gold Derby during our recent webchat (watch the exclusive video interview above). But unlike where Cary was in the first two seasons, Tarver sees him losing his grip on knowing where to dial back his more selfish tendencies. “I feel like this season he’s really struggling with knowing where the line is to where he’s going, getting so self-involved that he’s hurting those around him and himself a little bit more.”

“The Other Two,” which is currently streaming on Max, centers on two siblings, Brooke (Heléne Yorke) and Cary, who are forced to re-evaluate...

It’s not long after I request a quiet table in the back, reporter’s notebook and tape recorder in hand, that the hostess of this rustic East Village trattoria asks who I’m meeting. When I tell her Drew Tarver and Heléne Yorke, her eyes light up in recognition before she begins listing other stars who frequent the restaurant: Ben Stiller; Tyler, the Creator; Emily Ratajkowski; Ziwe. As I scan the menu, she recommends the chicken Milanese — Pete Davidson’s favorite entrée.

This interaction might sound celebrity-obsessed, verging on grossly superficial. But then again, I’m about to sit down with the stars of “The Other Two,” the hilarious and scathing satire of how fame consumes, corrupts and confines us.

Soon after we’re all seated, Yorke says with a hearty laugh, “Being an actor is, in many ways, a humiliating experience.”

We’re not yet five minutes into our interview,...

[Editor’s note: The following interview contains spoilers for “The Other Two,” Episode 8.]

Josh Segarra has been that guy for too long. Now, it’s time to get to know the actor who truly is everywhere.

So far this year, the breakout star of “The Other Two” has appeared in “Scream VI” playing “hot neighbor guy” love interest turned key survivor, entered the MCU with Disney+ series “She-Hulk,” as well as led TV series “The Big Door Prize.” To track Segarra’s screen roots back further, he can even be spotted in Amy Schumer’s “Trainwreck” as the (very memorable) Staten Island hook-up.

Segarra isn’t just that guy anymore: He’s almost synonmous with his iconic lovable “The Other Two” character Lance Arroyo, whose relationship with longtime girlfriend Brooke Dubek (Heléne Yorke) provides some of the best laughs in the critically acclaimed series.

Below, Segarra tells IndieWire how he landed the Sexiest Man Alive title in “The Other Two...

[The following story includes spoilers for The Other Two season three.]

While Curtis Paltrow is, technically, the gay best friend on The Other Two, actor Brandon Scott Jones says he’s far from a “sassy, frivolous side character.” It’s a good thing, too, because after a slow-burning conflict exploded in the latest episode there may not be much of a friendship left.

The Max series from Saturday Night Live alums Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider centers on Cary (Drew Tarver) and Brooke Dubek (Heléne Yorke), siblings who are perpetually fighting to get out of the shadow of their pop star brother ChaseDreams (Case Walker) and, as of this season, also that of their media mogul mother Pat Dubek (Molly Shannon).

Jones plays Curtis, Cary’s best friend and fellow actor. At the beginning of the series, they’re waiting tables together, and their relationship evolves as their careers ebb and flow — though Curtis is more...

The eligibility window for this year’s Emmys cycle closed May 31. The hanging episode rule has gone the way of Barry Berkman, which means this week’s TV awards contenders to watch are kind of an odd bunch: mostly episodes that aired earlier in the week or currently airing shows whose full seasons won’t be eligible. But you don’t care about that — you just want to know what shows are worth watching.

A nominee in 2022 for Best Short Form Comedy, Drama or Variety Series, the extremely memeable sketch comedy “I Think You Should Leave With Tim Robinson” returned to Netflix for its highly anticipated third season on May 30, making its six episodes eligible for this year’s awards cycle. The unpredictable series from Robinson and Zach Kanin earned the former the award for Best Short Form Actor in 2022 (the show lost to “Carpool Karaoke: The Series”). There is...

Missing “Succession” already?

It’s understandable, considering the critically acclaimed and easily quotable HBO series just had its swan song last Sunday.

Fortunately, if you’ve found yourself looking out at the Hudson River (or whatever the closest body of water to you is), contemplating what you’ll watch next, here’s something for you: a look at the 10 shows other U.S. “Succession” fans have been gravitating towards, according to Whip Media data from its TV Time app, a TV and movie tracking app with more than 25 million registered users. These might pique your interest as a viewer — and more importantly, give you insight into how streamers can effectively cross-promote shows when they have a hit.

The most popular series among “Succession” fans lately has been “White House Plumbers,” the Nixon-era satirical drama starring Woody Harrelson and Justin Theroux. Since debuting on Max on May 1, “Succession” fans have been...
