This post contains spoilers for "Reacher" season 2, episode 7.
Jack Reacher has never been one to abide by the rules. In Lee Child's "Persuader," the seventh novel in the "Jack Reacher" series, Reacher goes out of his way to work for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to crack down on a trafficker, deliberately breaking a handful of official rules just to do the right thing. This kernel of dogged perseverance has always been an integral part of Reacher's personality in every iteration of his character, and "Reacher" season 2 continues this tradition by allowing him to break the rules yet again.
In "Reacher" season 2's seventh and penultimate episode, Reacher and his team — his colleagues at the 110th Special Investigations Unit years ago — are backed against the wall thanks to the machinations of Shane Langston (Robert Patrick) and the elusive A.M. (Ferdinand Kingsley). In the previous episode, "New York's Finest,...

Yet another episode of the second season of Amazon Prime’s Reacher gets spent in investigation and building up the upcoming conflict between Reacher’s unit and the combined might of A.M. Langston. With three episodes remaining in the season, the showrunners are bound to rush the action during the final confrontation, and we are hoping that doesn’t hamper the flow of the narrative as a result. In the previous episode, while investigating the systematic killing of their 110th unit comrades, Reacher’s team learned that New Age Technology received a contract for a high-profile defense project named Littlewing, which they obtained with the political backing of a certain corrupt Senator Levoy. The team squeezed Levoy’s legislative director, Daniel Boyd, who spilled out the truth about Project Littlewing, which is software that can allow anti-aviation weaponry to bypass any form of radio redirection security. New Age’s chief of security,...

After setting up the season’s central crisis through the first three episodes, Amazon Prime’s Reacher gradually establishes causality through a connection between the actions and objectives of the antagonists, letting viewers connect enough dots to figure out the big picture in the process. The previous episodes concerned Reacher learning about the systematic, brutal killings of his friends, members of the 110th unit of special investigators, and running his own investigation by taking the surviving members—Neagley, O’Donnell, and Dixon—along with him. NYPD Detective Russo, who is acting as the chief investigator of the case, briefly locks horns with Reacher but eventually agrees to help through a mutual information exchange. Eventually, the team learns about the involvement of the aerospace company New Age Technology in the murder mystery, and unbeknownst to them, the company’s chief of security, Shane Langston, is revealed to be responsible for the deaths of their comrades.

This post contains spoilers for "Reacher" season 2, episode 4.
When Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) first arrives in Margrave in the pilot of "Reacher," he meets Oscar Finlay (Malcolm Goodwin), the Chief Detective of the Margrave Police Department, who is investigating the same murder case Reacher wants to solve. Sporting wildly contrasting philosophies, Reacher and Finlay do not get along too well initially but decide to become allies throughout the series, with Finlay coming in clutch and saving Reacher heroically towards the end. As Finlay is one of the few characters who maintain a deep bond with Reacher, fans anticipated his return in the newest season, despite the narrative's massive time jump and the decision to adapt "Bad Luck and Trouble", the 11th book in the "Jack Reacher" series.
"Reacher" season 2, episode 4 deepens the shadow of doubt surrounding Tony Swan (Shannon Kook), one of Reacher's colleagues who served in the 110th Special Investigations Unit several years ago.

Chrissie Bixler outed herself as one of Danny Masterson’s victims in November 2017. She joined actress Bobette Riales and two anonymous women in filing a lawsuit against Masterson and the Church of Scientology in 2019, and on Saturday posted a series of interviews with Ashton Kutcher in which he revealed Masterson bet him $10 to French kiss a then-14-year-old Mila Kunis when Kutcher was 19.
By the time the first episode of “That ’70s Show” aired, putting together Kutcher and Kunis as then-fictional love interests, Kutcher was 20.
One of the clips is from a 2002 episode of “The Rosie O’Donnell Show,” where Kutcher and Kunis appeared together. Kutcher admitted to O’Donnell that he and Kunis were told they would be kissing a lot, and he wondered if “this is slightly illegal” due to Kunis’ age.

In the 90s, Chris O’Donnell was one of Hollywood’s most prominent young heartthrobs. Whether it was acting opposite Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman or playing a young D’Artagnan in the Disney version of The Three Musketeers, it can’t be denied that the movie that put his career into overdrive was Batman Forever. In it, O’Donnell reinvented the role of Batman’s ward and sidekick, Robin, for the nineties, with him an acrobatic badass that proved so popular that the next movie was Batman and Robin. And there is where things started to change, with Joel Schumacher’s sequel ridiculed.
Even still, O’Donnell made a few good movies after, including the underrated rom-com The Bachelor and the terrific Martin Campbell action movie Vertical Limit. However, his career never regained the momentum it had in the nineties. Yet, despite everything, he later went onto a long run on NCIS: Los Angeles,...

Lawrence O’Donnell thinks the reason behind the decision by Fox News to fire Tucker Carlson has not been fully exposed, but what is public shows that the right-wing personality has a “deeply sick mind.”
“I think there is more, much more that we don’t know about what was revealed in the discovery process of the Dominion [Voting Systems] case that forced Rupert Murdoch to decide to fire the biggest star on his network, who he was paying to publicly be a racist,” O’Donnell said at the start of a lengthy segment Wednesday night.
The host of MSNBC’s “The Last Word” was referring to reports that suggested that Murdoch, executive chairman of Fox Corp., along with other members of the company’s board, drew the line on Carlson over a text message that surfaced during the Dominion case, in which Carlson described watching a group of Trump supporters attack a young...

Sherri Shepherd is reflecting on the power of a good co-worker by speaking up about the ways that former “The View” co-host Rosie O’Donnell taught her “it’s all about paying it forward.”
Shepherd shared the anecdote while speaking on her show, Sherri, with “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin about Hostin’s new novel. Shepherd and Hostin overlapped at The View in 2014.
“I don’t even know if you remember this, but when I signed my deal sheet, you gave me a call,” Hostin said. “I don’t know how you got my number… and you were like, ‘I heard you’re coming on the show.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m joining the show.’ She was like, ‘Did they give you a car stipend?’ I was like, ‘No…’ and I was like, ‘Let me get my deal sheet out.’ And you basically went over your salary for the entire time you were there.

“I remember very vividly walking into the bullpen with my arms outstretched, like I was flying a plane and we were taking off,” says LL Cool J, recalling a favorite moment from shooting NCIS: Los Angeles. The scene was in the 2009 series premiere of the first-ever NCIS spinoff, which is closing its last case with a two-part finale, May 14 and 21, after 14 seasons of soaring success. The actor and rapper plays special agent and former Seal Sam Hanna, who’s bravely pursued terrorists, gangsters, and other unsavory Angelenos alongside fellow agent G. Callen (Chris O’Donnell). They’ve had each other’s backs in Hollywood foot chases, Malibu gun battles, and a very scary trip to the Middle East in Season 11. Through it all, they’ve razzed each other the way good friends do. “Our relationship and chemistry was really what ...

“It’s a disgrace what they do,” California Governor Gavin Newsom said of Fox News’ primetime programming and coverage of gun violence, according to ABC10, at a briefing related to the mass shooting in Monterey Park that killed 11 people on Saturday. “There’s xenophobia, they’re racial priming. What they have done to perpetuate crime and violence in this country, by scapegoating, and by doing not a damn thing about gun safety, not a damn thing for decades…”
Newsom’s remarks were made prior to a Monday shooting in Half Moon Bay that led to seven deaths and another last night in Oakland that injured seven and killed one teen.
“We have work to do,” said Newsom. “I mean, there are full networks that do nothing else but sell fear. That’s all they do. They sell fear about immigration. They sell fear about crime. And yet they sell calm about climate change.

CBS will introduce a new “Democracy Desk” to its coverage of the 2022 midterm elections. Norah O’Donnell, Gayle King, John Dickerson and others may narrate the proceedings on the evening of November 8, but three correspondents will be on standby to call attention to hiccups in voting procedures; how candidates who have denied the results of the 2020 presidential election are faring in their races; and whether law-enforcement authorities are seeing any threats to poll workers.
“I don’t think we are going to shy away from leaning into this early in the evening, and I think we will check in all night,” says David Reiter, executive producer of special events for CBS News,...

Rosie O’Donnell explained the hurt feelings that led her to never appear on Ellen Degeneres’ eponymous daytime talk show for its entire run on a recent Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen interview.
O’Donnell was responding to a fan question who noted that Ellen had appeared on her show, but the reverse never occurred.
The retelling of this story included a funny impression of the late Larry King, because DeGeneres’ comments that rubbed her the wrong way took place on that show.
“Whatever happened to Rosie O’Donnell, her show went down the tubes! She came out as a lesbian and disappeared!” O’Donnell said as King.
“And Ellen said, and I’m quoting, ‘I don’t know Rosie, we’re not friends,'” O’ Donnell said. “And I was in bed with Kelly, and I just went, ‘Did I just hear that?'” She said she, “Never really got over it,...

The Joel Schumacher-helmed Batman movies: some folks would say “the less said about them, the better…” Neither film is exactly beloved, beyond connoisseurs of camp cinema anyway, though it would seem as though they’re consistently being reevaluated every time a new Batman film comes out. So why set up a Face Off between these two much-maligned sequels? Cause that’s the kind of thing we do around here — and besides, this writer hadn’t seen either movie in a very long time, so it would prove to be a rather interesting journey.
After Tim Burton vacated the director’s chair and moved into a producing role for the third installment, Warner Brothers brought in Joel Schumacher to take the reins on Batman Forever. Starring Val Kilmer as Bruce Wayne, Jim Carrey as the Riddler, Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face, Nicole Kidman as Dr. Chase Meridian, and Chris O’Donnell as Dick Grayson aka Robin.

Over 30 years after "American Gigolo" launched Richard Gere's career, the film is getting a TV adaptation with another suave leading man in the starring role. Jon Bernthal is taking over the reins as Julian Kaye, a former male escort who spent years being the object of affection until a murder charge landed him in prison. The series almost works as a direct sequel to the original film: picking up 15 years later, Julian is exonerated when new evidence comes to light proving he did not commit the murder that got him put away. But while trying to get back into his old scene, he realizes that picking up where he left off isn't as simple as he'd like. So he does as TV characters so often do, and gets to work trying to solve the murder himself.

Melanie Field grew up playing sports, though she tells Popsugar she wasn't particularly good at them. She would spend Sunday afternoons watching games on TV with her dad, avoiding homework while he explained the rules of baseball or football. She never would have guessed that she'd one day be the one on screen playing baseball. Field stars as Jo Deluca in Prime Video's "A League of Their Own," an adaptation of the 1992 film, which she's long adored.
"To be plus-size on television is already such a surreal thing for me because it's something I never, ever expected growing up," Field says. "The representation was just not there. I had no reason to believe that there was any place for me on screen."
There were a handful of exceptions to that rule, though, when Field was a kid in the '90s. She can name them in quick succession: Roseanne Barr,...

Prime Video’s “A League of Their Own” series only just launched, but the show’s creators are already hard at work on a potential second season.
“We’re here with you taking a break from working on Season 2 of the show,” series co-creator Will Graham told TheWrap in a recent interview. “There definitely is a lot more to this story.”
The first season, out on Prime Video now, sees Carson Shaw (Abbi Jacobson), Greta Gill (D’Arcy Carden), Jo De Luca (Melanie Field) and more gather at tryouts for the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, eventually settling on the story of the Rockford Peaches. Within the Illinois-based team are stories of all kinds of women, but one storyline falls outside the Aagpbl with Max Chapman (Chanté Adams), who carves her own niche in baseball later on in the show. Season 1 ends with some physical and literal twists, but the story is far from over.

Those of us who grew up loving baseball — going to games with Dad, learning to keep score, listening to the hometown broadcasts on the local Am radio stations — know these things to be true: Hot dogs, especially with mustard, taste better at the ballpark. The universal designated hitter is a ridiculous idea. And 1992’s “A League of Their Own” is unquestionably one of the best baseball movies of all time. Even if you’ve never seen it, you know its most famous line, delivered by Tom Hanks as washed-up former pro ballplayer who thinks he’s now slumming it by managing a team of girls in short skirts: “There’s no crying in baseball!”

Rosie O’Donnell is definitely not setting aside her beef with her former “The View” co-star Elisabeth Hasselbeck anytime soon. Hasselbeck’s recent return to the show got a big thumbs down from O’Donnell, which of course it did given their contentious onscreen relationship back 2006 and 2007.
“Okay, so I prepared myself. I got ready to watch Elisabeth Hasselbeck on ‘The View,'” O’Donnell said in a TikTok video posted Thursday. “She’s not on today. She was on yesterday. So I missed it.”
She added, “But, then I went back on ‘The View’ on my Apple TV or whatever, and I watched it from yesterday, and I remembered why I don’t wanna watch it with her anymore,” slightly chuckling.
She concluded in the TikTok, shaking her head, “Her little Post-it Notes, I don’t know. Listen, it’s strange. Hope you’re having a good day, and if you saw that yesterday,...

Rosie O’Donnell is returning to “A League of Their Own” — this time, to cheer on the Rockford Peaches from afar.
The actor, who portrayed third base player Doris Murphy in the 1992 film, will have a role in the upcoming Prime Video series, albeit not the same one as her character from the movie. O’Donnell will play a local bar owner named Vi.
A fan of the Rockford Peaches, Vi crosses paths with Abbi Jacobson’s catcher Carson and soon welcomes her into her orbit.
The series is described as evoking “the joyful spirit of Penny Marshall’s beloved classic, while widening the lens to tell the story of an entire generation of women who dreamed of playing professional baseball.

If Steven Spielberg had his way, then “Men in Black” would have been a very important stepping stone in the career of…Chris O’Donnell.
The superstar filmmaker, who was tasked with producing the sci-fi comedy that opened July 2, 1997, thought that the role of Agent J was tailor-made for the rising actor. Although the idea of O’Donnell teaming up with Tommy Jones may seem ludicrous now, it made sense at the time. After all, O’Donnell’s star was at its zenith in the mid-1990s, propelled by buzzy turns in “Scent of a Woman” and “Mad Love,” and not yet brought crashing back to Earth by the disaster that was “Batman & Robin.”
However, the film’s director Barry Sonnenfeld disagreed that the wholesome, hunky O’Donnell was right for the youthful agent. Over a Spielberg-mandated dinner with O’Donnell in which he was intended to convince the actor to sign on,...

The segment began by borrowing a clip from “CBS Evening News,” with host Norah O’Donnell breaking down Monday’s ruling from the Supreme Court in which they voted 6-3 in favor of a Washington state high school football coach who was fired for conducting postgame prayers on the 50-yard line.
