Freshman what is the meaning

For future reference, when the guy you’re dating says he wants to “become a singular living God” with you, it’s not an adorable figure of speech. Get the hell out of there. But if you unwittingly had a surveillance chip placed in your brain by the same dude? Uh. Well, sorry, we honestly don’t know what to do next. In the first trailer for HBO Max’s new dramedy series Made for Love, Cristin Milioti’s abject character gets the rudest possible awakening when she wants to leave her husband (Billy Magnussen, who’s so good at playing dicks ) only to discover he’s watching everything play out thanks to the aforementioned chip. Her father (Ray Romano) is ready to help however he can, which, based on the trailer, means reciting Beyoncé’s “Crazy in Love” like a spoken-word poem. The eight-episode series will premiere this April. … [Read more...] about Cristin Milioti’s Brain-Surveillance Chip Isn’t a Metaphor in the

Photo: BBC3 Catastrophe , the Amazon show about what happens to two near-strangers who get pregnant and have a baby together, quickly solidified its rep as the most charming show on either side of the pond. Created by and starring Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan, the series jolts along so quickly you can almost hear the whooshing sound, but its frenetic pace does have one major drawback. At only six episodes a season, it ends just as you were getting started. Fortunately, if you like Catastrophe , there’s more where that came from. Before teaming up with Delaney, Horgan had her own show, Pulling (available on iTunes ), a spiritual sibling to Catastrophe , if also a harder, more mournful beast. The women-fronted BBC comedy, which aired two seasons (also six episodes apiece) and a special between 2006 and 2009, is well worth revisiting, both as a Catastrophe companion piece and on its own terms. Here’s why. Pulling is Catastrophe ’s spiritual prequel. Both … [Read more...] about If You Want More

Per The Hollywood Reporter , Billy Magnussen ( Into the Woods , playing the deranged character with a six-pack in everything) has joined the cast of the Guy Ritchie movie musical as a new character, Prince Anders. The news of Magnussen’s casting has frustrated many, as there’s really no need to insert a white character into Aladdin in the first place. The rest of Aladdin ’s cast includes Will Smith, Mena Massoud, Naomi Scott, and Marwan Kenzari, who all recently posed together for a selfie , as well as Nasim Pedrad, who will also be playing a new character. Sources THR … [Read more...] about Billy Magnussen Will Play a New, White Prince in the Live-Action

Photo: Netflix Cary Fukunaga, Emma Stone, and Jonah Hill have been working on a Netflix series that looks trippier than your freshman year of college. Per Netflix, “ Maniac is the story of two strangers who find themselves caught up in a mind-bending pharmaceutical trial gone awry.” The ten-episode show is based on a 2014 Norwegian satire series , and is Fukunaga’s first directing gig since Beasts of No Nation for Netflix. Sally Field, Justin Theroux, Julia Garner, and Jemima Kirke also star in the black comedy. See the first-look photos below. Really wild how this photo of Emma Stone and Jonah Hill doesn’t even look like a highbrow Superbad reunion, but it actually kind of is. Caress us like one of your … Glossier-pink buttons, Justin Theroux. Maybe it’s because she’s dressed all in red, but — actually, yes, it’s definitely that she’s dressed in head-to-toe scarlet — Sally Field seems like Netflix’s chicest villain this side of Mahershala Ali’s … [Read more...] about Emma Stone and Jonah Hill Do Some Intense Staring in This First Look at
