The Big Bang Theory is currently mid-swansong as CBS is airing its twelfth and final season. Jim Parsons, better known as Sheldon Cooper, is ready to move onto other projects, so series creators Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady are wrapping up their story and bringing their universally beloved characters’ journeys to an end. It doesn’t feel like twelve years ago that a beautiful, starry-eyed blonde moved in across the hall from a couple of nerds and changed their lives forever, but that’s how long it’s been....

While it’s difficult to imagine any actor other than Jim Parsons playing The Big Bang Theory’s Sheldon Cooper, one co-star was actually initially poised to play the role: Johnny Galecki, who portrayed Leonard Hofstadter in the CBS sitcom. Both actors were part of the show’s original cast, being the only characters who appeared in the scrapped pilot. As fans know, the intended premier episode was reshot, with the addition of Kaley Cuoco’s Penny, Simon Helberg’s Howard Wolowitz and Kunal Nayyar’s Rajesh Koothrappali....

Young Sheldon’s fall finale revealed the origins of Sheldon Cooper’s (Jim Parsons) “Bazinga” catchphrase from The Big Bang Theory. In an effort to link the two sitcoms together, CBS rolls outed a crossover episode that brought Iain Armitage (young Sheldon), Montana Jordan (young Georgie) and Lance Barber (George Sr.) to the present day of the long-running parent show (via VHS tapes). Despite initial skepticism from fans, the crossover was a real success, delivering one of The Big Bang Theory’s most emotional scenes of the final season....

Season 3 of Big Mouth continues with the series’ shameless references and shots at other streaming services, actors, films, and shows, even those that are also part of Netflix’s originals – like 13 Reasons Why, which they subtly mocked through a comment about suicide as part of a series’ content. Big Mouth has never been afraid to address controversial topics, whether through their stories or by name dropping other properties....

The new Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) trailer offers fans a first look at the villain Black Mask (Ewan McGregor) wearing his signature mask. When Margot Robbie made her debut as Harley Quinn in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad, she quickly became a fan-favorite. The Oscar-nominated actress was nearly universally praised for her turn as the DC villainess, and Warner Bros. was quick to begin developing a number of spinoff ideas focused on Robbie’s Harley Quinn....

Black Panther earned a Best Picture nomination at the 2019 Oscars, becoming the first superhero movie to be recognized in the category. The Academy has long had a fickle history with acclaimed genre pictures. While a few have broken through and cracked the major fields, many of them are relegated to the technical categories. Recent exceptions to this rule include Heath Ledger’s posthumous Best Supporting Actor win for The Dark Knight and Logan’s surprise nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay last year....

Surging up the charts alongside the movie of the same name, Bohemian Rhapsody has just been named the most-streamed song from the 20th century. Its movie counterpart - Bohemian Rhapsody - which made waves due to both its controversy and its unabated popularity - also now holds its own title, as the highest-grossing music biopic of all time. Despite the fanfare surrounding Bryan Singer’s Queen biopic focused mainly on the life of the band’s gregarious lead singer, there have been a plethora of critiques....

Bond 25 won’t change its release date following Daniel Craig’s injury. It’s been almost four years since British super spy James Bond last thrilled audiences on the big screen. Though Spectre didn’t hit the same highs as its predecessor Skyfall did, the film still marked an ongoing transition for the James Bond character, leaving fans eager to see what would happen next in the 57-year-old saga. As it turned out, what happened next following Spectre’s release was a great deal of confusion, conflict and uncertainty, the likes of which have started to become a sort of hallmark of the Bond franchise....

Before The Big Bang Theory premiered in 2007, you wouldn’t have been able to point toward a character you both loved and hated. Once Sheldon Cooper made his debut, he became the poster boy for such a character. If Sheldon was a real person, then he would easily be an awful guy to be around, because nobody wants someone so full of themselves and rude in their lives on a daily basis....

If there was one character on The Big Bang Theory who was just as important as the main cast, it has to be Stuart. Guest characters like Leslie Winkle and Barry Kripke were fun additions but Stuart and his comic book store were instrumental in every season. As the owner of the comic book store that the gang frequented, Stuart got to know Sheldon, Leonard, Howard, and Raj exceptionally well....

Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Selena Gomez and Tilda Swinton will head up the cast of The Dead Don’t Die, a new zombie comedy from legendary indie director Jim Jarmusch. Steve Buscemi and Chloe Sevigny also star in the film, which is currently shooting. Beginning with his classic 1980s movies Stranger Than Paradise and Down By Law, Jarmusch has built a reputation as one of the masters of American independent film. Occasionally, Jarmusch does like to step away from the quirky, character-driven comedies in which he specializes to dabble in genre filmmaking - though always with unusual results....
