A reminder that Superstore, one of the best contemporary network sitcoms left, ends tonight.

Some Russians built their own Mandalorian ship and why the hell not?

Chrissy Teigen has had a rough year and Twitter trolls have not made it easier, so it’s not surprising that she’s decided to leave the platform. But of course, the real victim here is Meghan McCain.

They paused production on Law & Order: Organized Crime because of a positive COVID test.

Magic Johnson, Arsenio Hall, and Danny Trejo got vaccinated together.
