Welcome To The Family’s ending is a chaotic mess that looks straight out of an 80s/90s Hollywood comedy. The Mexican Netflix original drama tells the story of a single mother who finds herself in the soup when her house is raided by thugs. All Cristina ever wanted to do was look after her kids and pay off her mortgage, which she did. But, instead of supporting her, not only did her father throw her out, he’s also the reason the thugs stole her house. It’s Cristina’s dad and brother who owe those men money, but the pair plan to keep all the money they have, pull the rug from under Cristina’s feet, and run off to Guam. When Cristina shows up to her father’s house with her family of 3 kids and their paternal uncle (he has lived with them ever since his brother...

An unprecedented season of The Traitors, hosted by Alan Cumming, came to an end on Thursday night, revealing the winners of the reality competition show did not include any “gamers.” Instead of contestants from Big Brother, Survivor, or The Challenge making it to the end, four so-called Faithfuls — Dolores Catania from The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Gabby Windey from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, British aristocrat and distant cousin of King Charles III Lord Ivar Mountbatten, and Dylan Efron, influencer, producer, and brother of actor Zac Efron — walked away splitting the cash prize,...

The Traitors contestants underestimated Carolyn Wiger.

Joining season three of Peacock’s award-winning competition series as a Traitor, the 38-year-old Survivor fan favorite quickly won over the hearts of Traitors fans as well. Wiger was selected to join the murderous crew alongside Big Brother legend Danielle Reyes and RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Bob the Drag Queen. The trio was eventually joined by one of Survivor’s greatest, Boston Rob Mariano.

It only took four episodes for the titular Traitors to turn on one another; Mariano took a comment Bob the Drag Queen made as an attempt to push suspicion in Mariano’s direction, so the 49-year-old orchestrated a nearly full cast turn on the Drag Race alum.

That one comment, and the subsequent banishment, set off a season of consistent Traitor-on-Traitor violence. Both Wiger and Reyes voted out Bob the Drag Queen, and they later voted off Mariano just...

The premise of “The Traitors” may be for the Faithful to find out who among them is lying about their identities. But in Season 3 of the Peacock series, the Traitors’ worst enemies have been themselves.

“We couldn’t have predicted how this season would have panned out,” executive producer Sam Rees-Jones tells Variety. “We could never have imagined the storylines, the narratives, the relationships happening. It was a fun one to film, it’s a fun one to watch and a fun one to see people reacting to.”

At the time of our interview, seven people remain in the game: Episode 9, “A Silent Assassin,” ended with Traitor Carolyn Wiger being banished, and Traitor Danielle Reyes being forced to try to enlist a new Traitor. She chose Britney Haynes, and viewers will find out whether Britney accepts on the Feb. 27 episode.

However, after Carolyn was banished, she said in interviews that...

A reality show contestant doesn’t elicit a reaction of collective gasps and murmurs of “one of the greatest” to ever play Survivor without a solid idea of how to earn both love and fear from fellow cast members. Perhaps no one has a better handle on that than Survivor legend and The Traitors season three cast member “Boston Rob” Mariano.

The Traitors is often equal parts popularity contest and strategy game, something Mariano is familiar with after taking part in five seasons of Survivor, two seasons of The Amazing Race alongside wife Amber Mariano (who he met during his second season of Survivor and proposed to live during the finale) and the premiere season of Deal or No Deal Island.

No matter how Mariano entered The Traitors – and his entrance was seemingly a point of contention for him and other cast members – he was always going to be “a big target,...

Based on writer G.R.Indugopan’s “Nalanchu Cheruppakkar,” Jothish Shankar’s “Ponman” is a synthesis and character study of toxic masculinity while tackling the central theme of dowry menace. “Ponman,” translated as ‘the man with the gold’ does not make an in-depth, but rather a muted commentary against the dowry System. Despite legal prohibition under the Dowry Prohibition Act (1961), dowry is still normalized in Kerala, thereby leading to dowry-led deaths and suicides. “Ponman” is centered around one such woman who falls victim to dowry and the man who lends her gold. But does the film give her enough voice and arc? Well, let’s get there later.

Ponman’s titular character Ajesh Pp is a jewellery agent involved in Madiyil Jewellery’s shady gold-lending business in Kollam. He crosses paths with Steffi Graf, her widowed mother, and communist brother Bruno. Steffi and her family are financially struggling even without...

You’Ve Been Warned: This article contains spoilers for “The Traitors” S3

Bob the Drag Queen became Bob the Traitor on Season 3 of Peacock’s hit reality TV show bloodbath — but their time was cut short, mostly due to fellow Traitor, Boston Rob Mariano.

After Zac Efron’s brother Dylan Efron initially became suspicious of the “RuPaul’s Drag Race” winner, the “Survivor” all-star went for the jugular at the Episode 4 roundtable since Bob implied Rob could be a Traitor as a late entry into the game.

“I didn’t know who any of these people were, so I didn’t know the pull Boston Rob had or his power of convincing,” the 2025 Queerties host told TheWrap. “I didn’t know about it because I didn’t know who he was — no shade to Boston Rob, I just didn’t watch ‘Survivor’ — but I found out real quick. I found out the hard way.

Parvati Shallow has earned a legendary status in the world of Survivor, thanks to her smart gameplay. Her breakthrough came in Survivor: Micronesia, where she stood out not just for her physical abilities, but for her strategic thinking.

Every Survivor fan wants to know which former players will come back for the landmark Season 50 cast, which will be comprised of past contestants. One of the show’s most famous names is still in the reality TV conversation today: Rob Mariano, aka Boston Rob. Currently competing on The Traitors Season 3 and hosting the Deal or No Deal Island Season 2 after show each week, Mariano has remained a familiar face in reality competition show history (as have his baseball caps). He’s a one-time Survivor winner but frequent player and met his wife, Amber Mariano, while competing on the first-ever all-stars season (Season 8). When TV Insider previously asked him if he would be interested in coming back for Survivor 50, he wasn’t convinced he was interested in a return. Now, though, he seems to have changed his mind. Back in May 2024, Mariano told TV Insider that he’s always loved...

Hall-of-Fame Yankees pitcher Mariano Rivera and his wife, Clara, were accused of covering up the sexual abuse of a ten-year-old girl at the church they founded, Refuge of Hope.

Rivera and Clara bought the old church in New Rochelle, New York, in 2014, proceeding to renovate it into the Refuge of Hope church.

According to the lawsuit, Rivera and Clara allegedly “isolated and intimidated” a young girl into not saying anything about the abuse she was enduring for fear that the Refuge of Hope would suffer consequences.

The girl, now 17, filed a lawsuit on Jan. 16, seeking unspecified damages for negligent supervision and premises liability.

The girl’s complaint alleges that Clara, who is a pastor at the church, paid for her to go to a summer internship through Ignite Life Center in Florida, which required her to stay in a dormitory with her peers and no adult supervision. The lawsuit details that while at the internship,...

Boston Rob Mariano is a Survivor legend but has also become well-known for appearances on various other reality competition shows.

Rob finished tenth place on Survivor: Marquesas, but the fans loved him.

Rob was invited back for Survivor: All-Stars, where he played the game hard, pushed boundaries, and made it to the end.

The methods Rob used to succeed on Survivor 8 came at a price. He admittedly “killed friendships” and left a wake of destruction.

Luckily for Rob, the season ended happily, as he wound up with a wife in Survivor 8 winner Amber Brkich. He didn’t win the $1 million prize, but did score a new best friend for life.

Later, Rob played on Survivor 20: Heroes vs. Villains and then won Survivor: Redemption Island. But he still thinks back to his time on All-Stars.

Speaking with CBS News, as noted by The Express U.S., Ventimiglia shared...

Milo Ventimiglia is the latest celebrity to lose his home to the Los Angeles wildfire. He saw a connection between this devastating loss and a similar tragedy his character on This Is Us went through.

Los Angeles Wildfire

The fires are still raging in Los Angeles and have spread to other areas, including the Palisades, Hollywood Hills, Eaton, and Kenneth. Ventimiglia shared his raw feelings as he witnessed his home burn down on the security cameras. He called the moment “eery.” Ventimiglia and his wife, Jarah Mariano, evacuated their home on Tuesday, January 7.

The couple was helpless as they watched their family home burn down on the security cameras. Mariano is currently nine months pregnant. They packed up and left with their belongings. Unfortunately, they’re mourning the loss of their marital home, including their new nursery. In a candid interview with CBS Evening News, Ventimiglia returned to the place where his home once stood.

Milo Ventimiglia shared that he and his pregnant wife, Jarah Mariano, have lost their Malibu home in the devastating Los Angeles wildfires.

The actor, most known for roles in This Is Us and Gilmore Girls, told CBS News his house burned down after the Palisades Fire swept through their neighborhood. His family evacuated Tuesday and watched on security cameras as the flames took over their home.

“I think there’s a kind of shock moment where you’re going, ‘Oh, this is real and this is happening,’ and then at a certain point, we just turn it off,” he said. “It’s like, what good is it to continue watching, you know. We kind of accepted the loss.”

Mariano and Ventimiglia are also expecting their first child any day now, and the actor said they had the nursery all ready to go for their baby, making the devastation even harder to grasp.

As fires continue to rage around Southern California, Milo Ventimiglia is one of many to lose his home in the tragedy.

After evacuating with his family on Tuesday, the 3x Emmy nominee opened up about the “heavy” experience of losing their home in the Malibu Fire while surveying the damage, noting “it hits you so quick” as he choked up.

“You start thinking about all the memories in the different parts of the house and whatnot,” said Ventimiglia on CBS Evening News. “Then you see your neighbors’ houses and everything around, and your heart just breaks.”

He noted that he and wife Jarah Mariano saw the fire consume their home on security cameras.

“I think there’s a kind of shock moment where you’re going, ‘Oh, this is real, and this is happening,'” he explained. “And then at a certain point, we just turned it off. What good is it to continue watching?...

As This Is Us‘ Jack Pearson, Milo Ventimiglia famously lost a family home to a fire. Art in some ways imitated life for the actor this week, he acknowledges, when he and wife Jarah Mariano lost their Malibu home to the fast-moving wildfires ravaging the coast in Los Angeles.

In the CBS News segment above, Ventimiglia says that he and his wife evacuated their home on Tuesday, and were left to watch on the home security cameras “as flames took over” and turned their house to ash.

Season 1 of the popular Deal or No Deal spinoff ended with Jordan Fowler winning, much to Boston Rob Mariano’s fan’s annoyance.

Boston Rob was the main reason fans watched until the end, and everyone wants him back in Season 2 somehow, even if it is a cameo appearance.

Howie Mandel, the host of Deal or No Deal, showed up as the Banker in Dondi, but Boston Rob will return differently for Season 2.

As Monsters and Critics reported, Boston Rob is filming an aftershow named the Deal or No Deal Island Aftershow with Boston Rob that will stream after each show episode.

Joe Manganiello took fans on a behind-the-scenes camp tour of the island, showcasing the all-new features that will allow the contestants to relax.

In Encanto, Mirabel stands out for not having a magical gift like her family, causing tension with Abuela Alma. While Dolores is suspected of being the villain in the story, the lack of a traditional antagonist makes Encanto unique. Abuela, with her controlling nature, comes closest to being the antagonist by stifling her family's individual growth for the sake of tradition.

Disney's Encanto, which tells the story of the magical Madrigals, doesn't have a bad guy, but one theory speculates Dolores was the secret villain. Mirabel Madrigal is the only Madrigal family member in Encanto who doesn't get a magical gift. Unfortunately, this strains her relationship with Abuela Alma, who is worried about losing the miracle and letting her family and their village down, so she doesn't always treat Mirabel well.

As Baby opens, the title character, whose given name is Wellington, has a taste of freedom for the first time in nearly two years. He’s ending his stint in a youth detention center, a place with the grim industrial aura of a high-security prison — but also one where there are occasional breaks for drum-and-brass musical performances. Freedom presents particular challenges for Wellington, who discovers upon return to his working-class São Paulo neighborhood that his parents have left the city. There’s no forwarding address. Stepping into the void is a man more than twice his age, offering a confusing tangle of care and possessiveness as lover, mentor, business partner and paternal protector.

Exploring the twisty, aching complexities of the men’s relationship and the demimonde they inhabit, writer-director Marcelo Caetano (Body Electric), who served as casting director on Kleber Mendonça Filho’s Bacurau and Aquarius, has drawn compelling performances from his two leads.

Now that Deal or No Deal Island Season 1 is over and the Banker and the season’s winner have been revealed, the exit interviews for the final four are showing up online.

Jordan Fowler won, as revealed in the second part of the finale. Boston Rob, the hands-down fan favorite, was eliminated for what he must think is the silliest reason.

The reality show veteran is so used to the rules of Survivor that you can look at your competitor’s puzzles once they finish, but that is not the case on the Island.

After the “worst episode of the season,” Boston Rob was eliminated because he looked over at Amy’s puzzle and was penalized so much it cost him the game.

Season 1 of the show is winding down, with only five contestants left to meet the banker, and Boston Rob is the breakout fan favorite.

Exclusive: Paula Abdul is among an ensemble cast for a feature-length podcast from Steven Jay Rubin (Bleacher Bums), Billy Riback (Home Improvement) and stand-up comic Bruce Smirnoff.

The American Idol star is starring in Spacemen From Planet Judy alongside Phil Hendrie (Rick and Morty), Hal Rudnick (Reno 911), John Mariano (The Offer) and Eric Waddell (Funny You Should Ask).

It begins when all of Earth’s gay males, and two straight men dressed in drag because there was a mix-up in their Halloween costumes, are abducted to the distant planet Judy (named after Judy Garland), the gay haven world of the universe, where they will live in freedom without oppression.

Inadvertently kidnapped, bumbling information technology specialists Mitch (Hendrie) and Lenny (Rudnick) find themselves on an exotic world of constant partying, mingling and cuddling, all run by the Golden Ram Man (Mariano), a mad tyrant who abhors insubordination and seeded grapes.

For years, Rob Mariano operated as a veritable Survivor ambassador, having first appeared in Marquesas before going on to compete five more times on the CBS franchise. His celebrity became so valuable to the network that he would compete twice on The Amazing Race and even allowed CBS to film his 2005 nuptials to fellow Survivor contestant Amber Brkirch.

But when NBC’s Deal or No Deal Island came calling with the chance to compete, Mariano didn’t hesitate to put CBS reality shows in the rearview mirror so he could try something new on a different network.

The Traitors 2 featured Sandra Diaz-Twine as one of two women from Survivor.

While Parvati Shallow was brought on as a Traitor by Dan Gheesling from Big Brother and Phaedra Parks from Rhoa, Sandra played hard as a Faithful.

Sandra also did well by playing herself close to people she suspected of being Traitors. It almost got her to the end.

Sandra was one of the key people in getting Dan, Parvati, and Phaedra eliminated from the game. This was done while ending her Survivor feud with Parvati and developing a friendship with Phaedra.

Future players may view Sandra’s strategy as one that could work, but her downfall was that she didn’t continue fostering her relationship with one particular Faithful.

Peacock viewers watched as Sandra got turned on by someone she considered a friend in the castle. And it has had a lasting impact on her.

In the wake of Jade Castro’s arrest last week, the family of the Filipino filmmaker has released a statement demanding a “transparent and fair investigation” and launched a fundraiser to cover mounting legal costs.

The statement, which Castro’s family signed alongside those of Noel Mariano, Ernesto Orcine and Dominic Ramos, who were also detained without warrant, was posted on the “Free Jade Castro” page on Facebook. Many Filipino filmmakers and industry professionals have shared it on social media.

Castro, Mariano, Orcine and Ramos are accused of arson after a modern jeepney (a minibus-like utility vehicle) was set on fire; they were arrested in Mulanay, Quezon in the Philippines. However, TV station Abs-cbn and two local officials have placed the group more than an hour away from the scene of the crime at the time it took place, according to local news site Rappler.

New Amazon Prime Video series “Los Farad,” released Dec. 12, takes a look at the Cold War from one of its strangest geo-political hubs, 1980s Málaga. The action-packed show follows a family that is normal in many ways, despite earning a luxurious living as arms traffickers.

Part of a determinedly diverse and burgeoning lineup at Spain’s Prime Video, “Los Farad” is a high-profile prestige package starring Miguel Herrán – who plays Rio in “Money Heist” and Cristián in “Elite” – and the on-the-rise Susana Abaitúa, who delivered a tearaway performance in Netflix rom-com “Crazy About Her.”

Co-created by Alejandro Aménabar co-scribe Alejandro Hernández, “Los Farad” is directed by Mariano Barroso in his fifth collaboration with Hernández.

Emerging as one of Spain’s most notable drama series directors in an age of premium fiction, Barroso has extracted terrific, nuanced performances in series set in Spain’s recent past, such as “The Invisible Line” and “What the Future Holds.

Rare items called Blueprints allow you to buy new, powerful items in The Last Faith and are unlocked when you find every set of plans hidden within different areas. These treasures are only obtained if your character has progressed enough to open a certain ability. Each Blueprint acts as a reward for going off the beaten path and exploring new sections of dangerous places.

There are 3 Blueprints you can collect, which may all be handed over to the Npc Mariano to create new items in his shop. Similar to other loot you uncover, like The Federal Admiral's Cannon in The Last Faith, every set of plans is found inside a large chest. Many of the places where these chests are located are guarded by tons of enemies, so make sure you are prepared ahead of time to face these foes.

A special weapon you can unlock in The Last Faith is Leena's Bow, which appears in an Npc's shop when you obtain the right blueprints. This heavy-ranged weapon may only be wielded if your build has focused on certain stats during your adventure. You need to explore sections of the map previously blocked off to find the plans that make it possible to create Leena's Bow.

Before you can gain the Rare Prototype Blueprint that yields Leena's Bow, you must have the power to destroy Locked Doors.
