In one of Charles Addams' original Addams Family comic strips for the New Yorker, we see Gomez, the family patriarch, perched by a large window in his sepulchral home, looking out the window. His children and wife are standing near him. Outside the window, an apocalyptic storm is raging. A tree has been stripped of its leaves and a home across the street appears to be blowing over. "Just the kind of day that makes you feel good to be alive!" Gomez comments.

Barry Sonnenfeld's 1991 film version of "The Addams Family" captures that outsider spirit. This iteration of the Addams Family values the gloom that most people eschew, presenting Gomez (Raul Julia) and Morticia (Anjelica Houston) as horny, enthused monsters who you kind of fall in love with.

The plot of the movie is somewhat plain: a scheming a-hole finds someone who looks exactly like the long-lost Fester Addams...

Fans miss the harsh critiques from Simon Cowell during the Fox era of American Idol; they also want a bigger focus on talent and less time spent on sob stories. A Reddit poll shows a desire for the judges to be more critical and shift away from emotional backstories in favor of shining talent. There's been a transformation on reality competition shows towards positivity and less harsh critiques.

American Idol season 22 recently premiered, but fans are already picking apart the singing competition show and noting how it's changed since it moved from Fox to ABC. When American Idol debuted back in 2002 with original judges Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson, there were several years when it was common to hear very harsh critiques from the judges' table--especially from Simon. During Idol's final three seasons on Fox, Harry Connick Jr. picked up that baton and took his job very seriously...

Greta Gerwig's Barbie is objectively her most successful directorial work so far, with the film scoring multiple well-deserved critical accolades and defying expectations. Recently, it even usurped Harry Potter in terms of money made for Warner Bros. Obviously, moviegoers know that the film celebrates feminism, reminisces on girlhood, and champions the perspectives held by different types of people within our real world.

Among its more overt commentaries on multiple aspects of humanity might be the film's most important secondary messages. The mental health commentary in Barbie is one of its most valuable and overlooked aspects, which further increases the film's importance. Here's how Greta Gerwig's latest (and most successful film) incorporates mental health themes.

This article will discuss mental illness and suicide.

A week after Barbie smashed box office expectations, Lizzo has dropped the “Bad Day” version of her soundtrack cut “Pink.”

Lizzo’s “Pink,” the movie’s opening number, already featured on the Mark Ronson-curated soundtrack, but the rapper’s darker (albeit still bubbly) version popped up amid Margot Robbie’s existential crisis in the film. The one-minute reprise of sorts wasn’t included on The Barbie Album and was otherwise unavailable before hitting streaming services Saturday.

"You can search online all you want, but it's a completely different experience from walking through the shelves and also having curation..." Take a trip through cinema history with filmmaker Wes Anderson as he browses through this Paris video store in the latest offering of the "Vidéo Club" series made by Konbini. We've posted videos of Brad Pitt and Terry Gilliam and M. Night Shyamalan already in this classic video store, now it's Anderson's turn. Wes apparently lives in Paris, but they got him to do this as a promotion for Asteroid City - which is playing now. He explains how they stole the title sequence for Asteroid City from John Sturges' Bad Day at Black Rock, and how his production designer Adam Stockhausen also worked on some of his favorite Steven Spielberg films as well. Wes is clearly a cinema nerd, he almost can't stop talking and could...

American Idol season 21 Top 3 finalist Colin Stough is an extraordinary singer and person, and there's good reasons why he'll most likely win the competition. Colin is an 18-year-old Hvac technician from a little town outside of Amory, Mississippi. He auditioned for American Idol when his mom signed him up, knowing that he would never do it himself. He sang "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, impressing the judges with his incredible vocals and guitar playing.

During Colin's American Idol season 21 audition, Luke said that he was what American Idol was about, and Katy gushed that he had the magic in him. Luke said that the performance was, "raw, real, humble." The judges invited Colin's mom into the audition room, and awarded him with his golden ticket to Hollywood, after they all voted "yes." Colin has since made it to the American Idol Top 3, and will now compete with Megan Danielle and Iam Tongi for the win.

What initially started as a road rage issue on a fine day turns into a blood feud that ruins multiple lives and results in the deaths of a few. This forms the basic plot of the newest Netflix series “Beef,” created by Lee Sung Jin, where the protagonists Danny Cho (Steven Yeun) and Amy Lau (Ali Wong) are two characters whose hatred for each other constantly grows until they actually attempt to kill each other. With their entire families getting dragged into this seemingly nonsensical feud, here’s how the “beef” comes to a close between these two angry people.

The French Alps in VistaVision and Technicolor really sell this inspirational thriller. Spencer Tracy stars is the utterly ethical mountaineer, and young Robert Wagner his venal, verminous, just plain no damn good younger brother. Make that Much younger. Edward Dmytryk directs for big dimensions and strong emotions, and Paramount’s remaster makes the special effects of the mountain climb look good again. It’s a morality tale pitched at grade school level, and one of Tracy’s better late-career pictures. With Anna Kashfi as a plane crash victim deserving of rescue, and William Demarest as a French priest with a Preston Sturges accent.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for Batman - One Bad Day: Catwoman #1!The Batman - One Bad Day series of one-shots continues to paint complex, nuanced pictures of Gotham's villains, and Catwoman's turn at bat is no exception. With a story that is small in scope yet with great personal stakes for Selina, One Bad Day manages to portray each facet of Gotham's most infamous thief with pathos and purpose. Touching upon her life as a thief, a sister, a lover, and a fiercely independent woman, One Bad Day manages to present the most holistic picture of Catwoman that DC has published in a very long time.

G. Willow Wilson and Jamie McKelvie's Batman - One Bad Day: Catwoman #1 closely follows Selina Kyle as she seeks to steal an heirloom of great personal value from a high society auction. Through the lens of this heirloom (a brooch of a bird...

Earlier this week, Netflix channeled the magic of ’80s nostalgia by announcing a new prequel series to The Dark Crystal, and now McFarlane Toys will also help bring Jim Henson's magical worlds to life by releasing official figures based on characters from Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal, including a figure of David Bowie's Goblin King, Jareth, which is teased in a new image ahead of its November release.

As the housemates found out that Aaron Frew was removed from the house for "inappropriate behaviour", day 17 in Big Brother arrived with lots of emotion.

But little did the housemates know that this would be their last full day before four shock evictions and four new arrivals.

Read on to find out who we thought had a good day, and who let their emotions get the better of them.

Good Day

Nick Henderson

No one had an amazing day in the house, but Nick was among most of the housemates who handled the news of Aaron's exit with a mature reaction, while sticking up for Joel in the process.

Saying he was feeling "protective" of Joel, Nick was also quick to defend Aaron's character, not letting his sour end in the house rewrite his entire time on the show: "He had an amazing journey and he learned loads about himself.

Big Brother threw in the latest round of nominations in last night's highlights show, which was just bound to cause tension. And sure enough, some housemates came out of it all smelling of roses... and others came out smelling pretty bad indeed.

That's right, it's time for our daily verdict on which housemates are looking good and which might need to rethink their strategy!

Good Day

Danny Wisker

We haven't been that impressed by Danny in the past, thanks to his laddish 'banter' and the like, but are we starting to see a different side to him? Admittedly our decision to put him in the 'Good Day' category may be because of our aversion to fake showmances, given that last night he tried to end his.

We're not sure what's going on with Danny and Sarah - neither, it seems, are they. But we couldn't help but warm to Danny...

It's been another fiery day in the Big Brother house – with Jade and Nick at the centre of the storm. Because of their breach of house rules, the majority of the house lost luxury beauty items, and no-one was particularly happy about it.

Head to head challenges followed, with contestants trying to win back the products they lost. Egg-smashing, arm-wrestling and dirty pint-downing made for good viewing, but did any of the housemates actually have a good day in the house?

Read on for our daily verdict of who had a good day and who had a bad day…

Good Day

Nobody

Let's be honest, no-one had a particularly brilliant time in the house on day 12. All the housemates were forced to hand over their beauty products and had to fight to get them back.

Harriet Jackson, Sarah Greenwood and Jack McDermott might have ended up winning back their products,...

Day 11 in Big Brother saw Adjoa Mensah leave the house in the second eviction of the series, as well as a surprise luxury timebomb twist and a potential romance brewing in the air.

But while Nick Henderson and Jade Lynch grew closer and Sarah Greenwood bickered with Cristian Mjc (again), it was hard to work out who actually had a good day in the Timebomb house.

Read on for our daily round-up of who triumphed and who fell a little flat.

Good Day

Joel Williams

As we said, no-one had a brilliant day in the house, but Joel's overall behaviour during last night's highlights made us think that he deserved the title of Good Day.

Whether he was arguing his case of becoming the prime minister, or speaking to Jack McDermott about Jade's intentions with Nick ("I think she could be leading him on"), Joel keeps his emotions in check,...

Big Brother is starting to ramp its cruelty right up now, thanks to a brilliant task on last night's show which saw the housemates screaming at the top of their lungs. Just what we want! But while some of them came out of it well, some of them really didn't.

That's right - it's time for our daily verdict on who had a good day in the house, and who might need to step up their game quickly...

Good Day

Nick Henderson

We're not-so-secret fans of Nick anyway - his dry humour is right up our street - but we think that he had a particularly good day on last night's highlights. Not only did he mix up his style (that topknot/ponytail attempt was something else) but he also made the most of a bad situation with the task.

Banished to the dreaded Hole, Nick was thrilled to discover...

Big Brother is in full swing now, with secret missions, arguments about food ("Two Eggs") and fledgling showmances. As Jack would say, what a time to be alive.

But as always, some of the housemates came out of last night's show better than others did. Yep, it's time for our daily verdict to see which of the housemates excelled in last night's highlights, and which of them might be needing to change their gameplan (fast)...

Good Day

Eileen Daly

We've been starting to like Eileen more and more recently, and if anything was going to cement that, it was last night's show. Sure, she was given a helping hand with a secret mission, but boy did she throw herself into it.

Eileen was brilliant to watch as she confused all of her fellow housemates with her sudden explosion of feelings, from desire towards Aaron to fear towards Jade and anger towards Sarah.

It was another day of tears and tantrums in the Big Brother: Timebomb house, as the aftermath of Jack McDermott and Nick Henderson's live twists were revealed on our screens.

As the series airs, we'll be continuing to highlight which of the housemates had a good - or not so good - day in the house, based on each night's highlights. So who had a great fourth day and who struggled?

Good Day

Sarah Greenwood

Sarah can't have been happy when she heard Nick reluctantly nominate her live on air, but she handled the situation maturely and sensibly.

While Adjoa cried over her nomination in the Diary Room, Sarah seemed to sense Nick's discomfort and anxiety over his decision and told him not to stress over what has happened while giving him a massive hug.

Obviously it's not clear whether this was a genuine move on Sarah's part,...

It was another explosive day in the Big Brother: Timebomb house. We had one huge decision, live nominations and a bath-turned-fight that was either deadly serious or just a bit of a joke.

So who had a great third day and who struggled?

Good Day

Jack McDermott

As Jack said last night: "It's a no brainer."

To be fair, it depends on how you look at things, really. After topping a poll in which the British public picked him as the early winner, he immediately refused the prize of a brand new BMW.

If he had accepted the car, he wouldn't have been eligible for the ultimate cash prize. So, Jack gave up the car (he'll regret that if he doesn't win), but it showed just what a nice guy he is.

Jack's decision meant it was a good day for the housemates overall, and he will definitely be safe for a while.

We've now had our first proper episode of Big Brother highlights, and with the housemates all beginning to settle in (and those first night nerves out of the way), we can start to really get a handle on who might do well... and who might struggle.

As the series continues, we'll be highlighting the housemates who have had a good - and not so good - 24 hours in the house, based on every night's highlights. So read on to find out who we think did well in last night's show, and who might be hoping for a bit of a turnaround next time...

Good Day

Harriet Jackson

None of the housemates had a particularly outstanding Day Two in the bungalow; in fact, if you asked Harriet herself, she might even tell you that she had a rather bad day, given that it ended up in tears. But Big Brother is...

A quick review of last night's "Parenthood" coming up just as soon as I have the route to the hospital MapQuested... I'm traveling to press tour today (and my responsibilities at tour may make reviewing next week's episode difficult, as well), so don't have time to write much about "How Did We Get Here?" Assuming Zeek's medical troubles aren't a red herring for another Braverman death, this one pushed all of the season's remaining arcs forward in more or less expected ways. Zeek may need more surgery, and might not be strong enough to survive it. Adam and Crosby have a way out of the Luncheonette, but for the second time in the run of the series, Crosby doesn't want to take it. Joel is hoping Julia takes him back for good, Hank is inspired by the drama to propose to Sarah, and Amber even gets a mini-baby shower in...

Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding has spoken of how she missed out on a role in Matthew Vaughn's mutant prequel X-Men: First Class.

In August it was revealed that Harding, 28, was auditioning for a part.

Many fans thought it was a made-up tabloid story or must be for a minor background cameo but 20th Century Fox didn't respond when we asked about the rumour, suggesting it was at least true.

Sarah has appeared in the two recent St Trinian's films, 2008 crime drama Bad Day and TV film Freefall. She also modelled lingerie for Ultimo. So what role might she have been playing?

Harding now reveals: "I got called back three times for X-Men but I missed out on the part to January Jones which was fine. She's a more established actress, but I was pleased to have got that far down the line."

January Jones, best known from TV drama Mad Men,...

Living it up in paradise, Sarah Harding was back out on the beach in Barbados on Wednesday morning (February 3).

Opting for a sexy white two-piece bikini, the Girls Aloud hottie pranced about the sandy shoreline while spending time with boyfriend Tom Crane.

On the career side of things, Miss Harding has shifted her focus on her acting skills, having recently played the leading role of Roxy in "St Trinian's 2: The Legend Of Fritton's Gold".

Branching out from her musical endeavors, Sarah has also appeared in the Indie flick "Bad Day" and the BBC drama "Freefall".

Gossip Center

Enjoy the pictures of Sarah Harding on the beach in Barbados (February 3).

Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding is reportedly in talks for a West End debut in the musical Chicago. Show producers apparently believe that Harding would be a perfect choice for the lead role of Roxie Hart.

"Sarah can sing, dance and looks great." A source tells the Sunday People. "Bosses reckon belonging to Girls Aloud would be the key to selling tickets."

Harding has also made a cameo in British independent film "Bad Day."

Meanwhile, U.S. talkshow host Jerry Springer is also set to to join the cast of the long-running musical show as Billy Flynn at London's Adelphi Theatre for a six-week stint this summer, Digital Spy reports.
