If you thought Special Agent Will Trent and Detective Angie Polaski had chemistry, just wait until you see sparks fly between Trent and fellow Agent Cricket Dawson during Tuesday’s Season 2 premiere (ABC, 8/7c).
Susan Kelechi Watson, best known to TV audiences for her turn as Beth Pearson on NBC’s This Is Us, gets down and dirty as a member of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s bomb squad. Cricket crosses paths with Will when a car bomb targeting fellow guest star Clark Gregg ignites a thrilling investigation — and, perhaps, a love connection.

There’s a moment early in Episode 2 of “The Brothers Sun” that goes way harder than it needs to. It’s not any of the bodily dismemberment as gangster Charlie (Justin Chien) breaks up the pieces of an assassin with the calm help of his mother, Eileen (Michelle Yeoh), while his estranged younger brother Bruce (Sam Song Li) looks on in horror. It’s not the ambush where Charlie and Bruce need to escape hitmen wearing inflatable dinosaur costumes. It’s not any of the machinations of the Taipei gangsters now gunning for the Sun family. It’s just this little beat of Yeoh sitting at a vanity, taking a moment amid the massive disruption to her life brought by Charlie’s arrival from Taipei and the failed hit on her husband Big Sun (Johnny Kou).

One of the first pieces of advice given to aspiring screenwriters is to try to write conflict without introducing a gun. Often, it’s a practical suggestion — for student productions, prop guns can be hard to come by — but it’s also an important learning exercise. Guns can be a crutch. If a character points a gun at someone’s head, there are immediate life-and-death stakes, sure, but then what? Someone either pulls the trigger or they don’t. The act itself isn’t what matters. It’s the context surrounding the action: Who’s being threatened? Why are they being threatened? What’s to be gained or lost by shooting them or letting them live? How did they get here? What drove them to such extremes? Answering these questions is what gives a story its pulse, and if you’re too quick to get to the gun, then the narrative flatlines.

Instead of shunning martial arts as cliché or stereotypical, many Asian creatives have leaned into that audience familiarity to help tell complex stories surrounding their experiences in this country and beyond. Michelle Yeoh has played a role in some of these recent efforts, including Disney+’s “American Born Chinese” and Marvel’s box office smash “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.” Now the “Everything Everywhere All At Once” star and historic Oscar winner is back at it, bringing her Hollywood clout to “The Brothers Sun” on Netflix.

Today Miley Cyrus is entering a new decade as she celebrates her 30th birthday.
From teen star to pop icon, the last 16 years of the “Wrecking Ball” singer’s illustrious career wouldn’t have been the same without her performance on the beloved Disney channel series “Hannah Montana”, which ran from 2006 to 2011, along with its related soundtrack albums.
Cyrus was just 13 years old when the first episode debuted on March 24, 2006. Her iconic role as Miley Stewart, the girl from Malibu who lives a double life, transforming herself into the famous pop singer Hannah Montana at night, quickly catapulted the young actress into stardom. The character’s secret identity kept fans intrigued and propelled the popular sitcom into four memorable seasons, just shy of 100 episodes. Cyrus even described her blonde alter ego as a “rocket that flew me to the moon and never brought me back down,” when she paid tribute...

In Hulu’s “Reboot,” a meta comedy from “Modern Family” creator Steven Levitan, Johnny Knoxville plays edgy stand-up comedian Clay Barber. After multiple stints in jail, he gets the chance to reprise his role in a wholesome family sitcom after, yes, Hulu, decides to reboot it 20 years later.
Unlike Clay, Knoxville is “very good” at dubbing lines and is — at least according to his co-star Keegan-Michael Key — “an absolute gentleman.” But the 51-year-old actor and stuntman admits that there’s “more than a little” of himself in his character. Both were branded as bad boys and lived fast lifestyles in the public eye. Eventually, Knoxville had to cool off, and in the cleverly named “Reboot,” Clay works to turn his life around and stay sober.
Speaking about his own journey, Knoxville tells Variety, “I had to slow down. I was running hot. You’re a fool if you live like...

(Photo by: Michael Desmond/Hulu) With reboots now a regular part of the television landscape, it was just a matter of time until a producer would make an original show about a reboot. Steven Levitan, the co-creator of Modern Family, is the producer who did, and the show’s first three episodes have just been released to Hulu. Like The Larry Sanders Show (which featured Levitan as a writer and producer) or 30 Rock, Reboot has a “show within a show,” as the cast members of an old sitcom, “Step Right Up,” are brought back together to make new episodes. Levitan said he enjoyed that storytelling device, as Reboot’s writers get to script two shows at once. (Click on the media...
