Matt Carter Lethal Weapon, Lucifer
Today, the Fox fall 2017 premiere dates were revealed, and they are a mixture of predictable and surprising for Lucifer, Lethal Weapon, and others. As we’ve done in every other edition of our Fall Preview series, what we’re going to do here is give you all of the dates, but then also a little bit of analysis […]
Matt Carter Gilmore Girls, The Handmaid's Tale
When The Handmaid’s Tale season 2 does premiere, it is going to have one significant change for Alexis Biedel: A major promotion! Sources confirm that the actress, who played the part of Ofglen, will be a regular for the second season. That doesn’t mean that she will appear in every episode by any means, but you should […]
Throughout this week, one of the big focuses we have in our Absentia writings is pointing towards potential great network homes for the Stana Katic series. Earlier this week, we examined the series more through the lens of TNT, and this time around, we are doing so more through USA and Lifetime. Why two networks at once? […]
Matt Carter Interviews, MasterChef, MasterChef Interview
On Wednesday night’s new episode of MasterChef season 8, Paige Jimenez became the second home cook eliminated from the top 20 after a difficult Pressure Test. She was the youngest contestant of the season, but still was certainly competitive and had never really been in danger before trying to replicate that dish from chef Aaron Sanchez. So […]

In a few notes, who can identify a song? Beat Shazam, a new game show on FOX, answers this question in front of a live studio audience with a few lucky contestants walking away with cash.

Matt Carter Bachelor in Paradise
When Bachelor in Paradise 4 does air on ABC a little bit later this summer, you won’t be seeing as much of it as you would in seasons past. Per a report from Deadline, the show is dropping down a total of two hours from how many hours it had last year to help compensate for the […]
Jess Carter Orange is the New Black, Orange Is The New Black season 5 review
To say the last episode of Orange Is the New Black was difficult to watch is an understatement (we can’t unsee Red getting scalped by Piscatella), but seems like the worst is over now and the torture of Red and her fellow prison family is done. Frieda and her team in the bunker have captured […]
In the middle of his segment on coal during this past episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, the show’s host made one thing clear: He expected a lawsuit, given that he was threatened with legal action leading up to it. Bob Murray and Murray Energy (in addition to other companies) were not altogether thrilled with […]
Matt Carter Big Brother, Big Brother 19 spotlight
If there is one thing we know about Cody Nickson entering Big Brother 19, it’s this: The dude really doesn’t like his job. He’s an interesting guy in that he came off as a little bit abrasive in his interview with Jeff Schroeder — especially the part where he called showmances “dumb” right to Jeff’s face — […]
Matt Carter Big Brother, Big Brother 19 spotlight
Ramses Soto is one of our favorite Big Brother 19 houseguests this season for a number of reasons — he’s enthusiastic, likable, he’s done his homework, and he understands what he needs to do in order to win. It also helps that he’s a cosplay artist and we’ve done a tiny amount of that in the past. […]
