Streamed & Screened: Movie and TV Reviews and Interviews

Who doesn't like going to the movie theater for a night out? It can be a lot of fun, but what about the people who like to chat?

Has anyone ever spilled popcorn or soda on you? What about a crying kid?

There are some distractions here and there, and on this week's episode we talk about what bugs us most.

We also dive into what we do like and what we want to see added to the overall experience.

About the show

With the Primetime Emmy Awards deadline coming on May 31, a rush of new seasons and shows are hitting networks and streaming platforms.

Following the recent conclussion of strong seasons from Emmy favorites "The Pitt," "Severance" and "The White Lotus," streamers have recently dropped shows including:

• "Andor" on Disney+.

The final season of 'The Handmaid's Tale' arrives, more than two years after the conclusion of the fifth season.

While the show aims to wrap the story of June Osborne, fans of the show do have more to look forward to as a spinoff series based on Margaret Atwood's novel "The Testaments" has been given the green light.

While no launch date has been given, we know that at least one actor — Ann Dowd who portr...

Easter is nearly here, which makes the timing right for the latest season of "The Chosen," a series that looks at the life of Jesus.

The Amazon Prime Video series, which makes its debut in theaters before moving to streaming, is an interesting model for shows that bridges the gap between the formats.

Besides that, the Max's medical drama "The Pitt" will wrap soon, as does "The White Lotus." But as those wrap, s...

While the 2024 summer movie lineup felt a little flat, a number of franchises — along with a few newcomers — should have film fans heading to theaters this summer.

"Superman," "Jurassic Park" and even "The Karate Kid" are in the mix, along with the final (unlikely) installment in the "Mission: Impossible" franchise.

Co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz discuss what is on the way and which films ...

Hollywood's biggest night is almost here. But which actors and films will be hoisting Oscars this year?

“The Brutalist,” “Conclave” and “Anora” are among the films that could have big nights, but there has not been a consensus among critics and several races are too close to call.

In this week's episode, longtime critic and host Bruce Miller makes his picks in the biggest cat...

We've talked about the 50th season of "Saturday Night Live" previously, but the iconic show finally celebrated with an anniversary special.

Co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz share their thoughts about the skits, musical guests from Paul Simon to Miley Cyrus to Paul McCartney, returning hosts and cast members like Steve Martin, Bill Murray and Tom Hanks, and special guests like the the surprise appearance...

"The White Lotus," HBO's breakout hit of 2021 was originally billed as a limited series. But here we are, back again for a third trip of what has become a popular anthology.

While Jennifer Coolidge bridged the casts between season 1 and 2, Natasha Rothwell reprises her season 1 role as the lone holdover from a previous season.

Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Parker Posey and Patrick Schwarzenegger are...

Sitcoms have a shorter lifespan than in the past, which means syndication has changed. What does that mean for the stars of comedies?

Obviously, big stars like Jerry Seinfeld can do what they like after a massive hit like "Seinfeld" goes off the air.

But for a star like Billy Gardell, who has found success on shows like "BOB❤️ABISHOLA" and "Mike & Molly," it means picking up work along the line and even get...

"Emilia Pérez" led all films with 13 Oscar nominations, but is it the film to beat?

Other top films include "The Brutalist" and "Wicked," which were nominated in 10 categories, and "A Complete Unknown" and "Conclave," each of which received eight no...

When it comes to Bob Dylan, the lines between fact and fiction often blur. The iconic singer, songwriter, musician, Oscar winner and Nobel laureate for literature has long been shrouded a bit in mystery, and it always seems he's willing to help fuel his own mythology.

When it comes to the new James Mangold-directed film "A Complete Unknown" that tackles his 1961 arrival...

The calendar has flipped to 2025 and we quickly find ourselves in the middle of awards season. First up were the Golden Globe Awards.

The show, with a looser atmosphere than Oscars and Emmys, celebrates some of the best movies and television shows. More importantly, the awards for films often offer a preview into the thinking of voters ahead of the Academy Awards.

The biggest buzz might be for "The Brutali...
