One of the best moments in Doctor Who was ruined by the BBC during its first airing fifteen years ago in 2010. The series five episode ‘The Time of Angels’ starred Matt Smith and was written by Steven Moffat, after he took over as the showrunner from Russell T. Davies. The broadcast error reportedly resulted in over 5,000 complaints from audiences to the BBC.

The episode saw Matt Smith’s Doctor deal with a swarm of Weeping Angels ready to attack his companions. During an emotional monologue that was incredibly performed by Smith, an ad banner with an animated Graham Norton appeared smack in the middle, angering many viewers. Norton’s appearance was reportedly to promote the show Over the Rainbow.

The 2025 Oscar telecast had a high bar to clear after last year’s show, which featured an all-time great Oscar moment with Ryan Gosling belting out “I’m Just Ken” from Barbie, which not only blew the roof off the Dolby Theater but also broke Emma Stone’s dress.

This year’s event, while never reaching those same heights, wasted no time giving audiences the same level of star power. Wicked nominees Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo opened the show with a gorgeous medley of inspiring numbers: Grande singing “Over the Rainbow” decked in gorgeous ruby slipper red, and Erivo an excerpt of “Home,” originally made famous by Diana Ross in the film version of The Wiz. The pairing closed out their performance with the inescapable “Defying Gravity,” which as expected brought the crowd to its feet.

Well after the three-hour mark, the game and goofy Oscar host Conan O’Brien quipped, “If you’re still enjoying the show, you have something called Stockholm Syndrome.” I guess I’m immune. Once again, despite the host’s best efforts and the producers’ apparent desire to stage a variety show at odd intervals, the 97th Oscars show lumbered on with occasional bursts of surprise, once again stretching perilously close to a four-hour running time before signing off amid an Anora sweep. The show front-loaded most of its best moments in the first half-hour before a single award was handed out. Opening with a magical Oz medley — Ariana Grande singing “Over the Rainbow” from the original The Wizard of Oz, Cynthia Erivo belting “Home” from The Wiz, then teaming on Wicked‘s signature song “Defying Gravity” — the showstoppers ...

Hollywood stars came, saw and conquered at Sunday’s 97th Academy Awards. While A-listers dressed to the nines and gave unforgettable speeches while bringing home the gold, there were many highs — and some lows — of the over 3.5-hour telecast. We are rounding them all up for you right here!

From Conan O’Brien absolutely nailing it as a first-time host to that magical “Wicked” opening by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, cinema’s biggest night did not disappoint.

Check out our list of the best and worst moments from the night!

“La La Land” (Credit: Lionsgate) Worst: The opening Los Angeles tribute featuring L.A.-based movies

The quick montage that opened the show featured clips from a number of high profile films that were iconically set in Los Angeles. There were better tributes to L.A. in the show in the wake of the January wildfires that tore through the city,...

Raise a glass to Oscars producers Raj Kapoor and Katy Mullan, who followed their Emmy Award-winning production of the 96th annual Academy Awards last year with an even better ceremony this year. The 2025 Oscars celebrated movies and the industry in the truest sense of the word, with deft hosting from first-time emcee Conan O’Brien and several emotional tributes to the creative community. Ahead are the highs (and just a few lows) from the 97th Oscars.

High: Wicked wasn’t eligible for Best Song (more on that category later), but the Oscars found a way to include its music by letting stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo perform an Oz-themed medley as part of the show-opening tribute to Los Angeles. Grande sang “Over the Rainbow” from The Wizard of Oz, Erivo sang “Home” from The Wiz, and together they sang Wicked’s show-stopper “Defying Gravity.” It was odd that the camera...

In a 1992 comedy flick, a carefree cheerleader learns about her destiny to hunt down and kill vampires. Although this teenage girl is initially flippant about her burgeoning abilities, a series of events forces her to take vampire-hunting seriously. Amid a botched prom and an antagonistic showdown in the school basement, the girl and her allies emerge victorious, having put an end to the tyranny of vampires hounding Hemery High School. Mostly unserious and wholly slapstick, this Fran Rubel Kuzui-helmed film received a negative to lukewarm reception on release. This comedy was none other than "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

But this isn't the version of Buffy that entered the global pop culture DNA. After all, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," the television series we know and love, is remembered through its enduring imagery: Black leather jackets, occult/religious iconography, passionate romance, and gothic architecture, to name just a few. At its...

The legendary 1939 film, and now, the stage and movie musical Wicked — based on Gregory Maguire’s novel — have added to the legacy of Frank L. Baum’s magical American tale and inspired generations to dream. The making of The Wizard of Oz is legend in its own right. Over the years, the desire to know more about the behind-the-scenes magic has unleashed a mountain of myths and misconceptions, along with some remarkable truths. Randy Schmidt is the writer and producer of the new documentary Mysteries of Oz: 85 Questions Answered. In celebration of the 85th anniversary of the 1939 film, this fast-paced documentary series counts down 85 questions tackling the lore and legacy of The Wizard of Oz.

Among the interviewees are Jane Lahr (daughter of actor Bert Lahr), Joey Luft (the son of Judy Garland), and Oz’s surviving cast members — former child actors Valerie Lee,...
