Netflix's "Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model" docuseries is quite good, I think! (Tyra really should NOT have agreed to be interviewed?) Here's a primer on what we learn from it. variety.com/lists/americ... #ANTM

Jill Zarin has been fired from "The Golden Life" after her racist Bad Bunny tirade Sunday night. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

you know some racists stroked out and died. just hold that in your heart.

Ok aside from the fact that this banger of a halftime show is going to give the right wing a collective heart attack, which is fucking awesome, how about the technical wizardry that went into that one camera take through the hedge maze

One of my favorite insta accounts. I'm far too emotionally invested in every dog she fosters.

I interviewed SimonSits — aka Isabel Klee! — about being featured on today's #PuppyBowl broadcast, and her life as a rescue influencer and content creator. I've followed her for so long! variety.com/2026/tv/news...

Barry Josephson has produced a zillion things, including "Bones" and "Kiss of the Spider Woman" (and "The Tick"!). And he was very close friends with Jeffrey Epstein, as Gene Maddaus' story illustrates. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Nearly six years ago, I had the most wonderful lunch with Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy for a cover story I was writing about #SchittsCreek. After O'Hara died yesterday, I wrote about what it was like to spend time with her — and with her dear friend Eugene Levy. variety.com/2026/tv/colu...

Yesterday was the 10th anniversary of this video I shot off my TV of Lady Gaga scaring Leonardo DiCaprio at the #GoldenGlobes, which I then posted to Vine, and it became one of the most-looped Vines of the year. Happy birthday? photos.app.goo.gl/8C7UwVQkwAGV...

The replies on Twitter to our story debunking the #StrangerThings Conformity Gate conspiracy theory about the secret episode (doesn't exist) dropping tonight (no, it won't!) are all yelling at us why we're wrong, and I want to walk into the sea! variety.com/2026/tv/news...

Got up on New Year's Day to speak to the Duffer brothers about the #StrangerThings finale. Is [SPOILER] alive? Their debates about who would kill [SPOILER]. The spinoff clue in the finale; the review bombing of "The Bridge," and that insane conspiracy about Vol 2. Here! variety.com/2026/tv/news...

In October, @kateaurthur.bsky.social and I published this cover story on the Duffer brothers and the final season of Stranger Things, a project months — years, really! — in the making: I visited the set in July 2024 and we first interviewed the Duffers a year later. PLUS, as a surprise bonus…

I interviewed the Duffer brothers about Volume 2 of #StrangerThings — THAT WILL SCENE, explaining the Upside Down, the unlikely person who comes up with the final plan, Max's significance going into the finale — and Eleven's deadly dilemma!

THREAD.

I interviewed the #AllisonAfterNXIVM podcast creators Natalie Robehmed and Vanessa Grigoriadis about how it came together, getting Lauren Salzman to talk for the first time, why they're burned out on NXIVM stories—and the criticism that they're "platforming" Allison Mack. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

“Norman [Lear] would have wanted to remind us that Rob and Michele spent every breath trying to make this country a better place, and they pursued that through their art, their activism, their philanthropy, and their love for family and friends...’” variety.com/2025/film/ne...

Nicki Minaj really did us all a favor by completely falling apart as an artist before becoming a non-stop fountain of regurgitated bigotry.

Truly could not be more excited about Season 3 of #TheComeback if I tried. variety.com/2025/tv/glob...

My final two #StrangerThings interviews for Volume 1 went up yesterday — I spoke with Nell Fisher, who plays the new Holly Wheeler, taking over for the Price twins, who'd played Holly in Seasons 1-4. She steals the show, I think! Delightful. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Once you HAVE finished Volume 1 of #StrangerThings5, here is the comprehensive spoiler interview @kateaurthur.bsky.social & I did with Matt and Ross Duffer.

For anyone who sat down to watch Volume 1 of #StrangerThings and just finished, @adambvary.bsky.social and I have a LONG postmortem interview with Matt and Ross Duffer for you to read. It's here when you need it! #Will! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Who knew Linda Hamilton was so delightfully batty? @adambvary.bsky.social interviewed her on the #StrangerThings set in July 2024, and this is very funny! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

#StrangerThings director/EP Shawn Levy championed it from the start. @adambvary.bsky.social and I spoke with him about the origins of the show, what the Duffer brothers were like when he first met them — and how the show has changed HIS career too. He's a quote machine! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

For our #StrangerThings cover story, @adambvary.bsky.social and I interviewed Matt and Ross Duffer for hours over two long sit-downs — so we had a ton left over. There's one COVID-season fact about Sadie Sink in Season 4 that blew me away, but we just couldn't include it! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

For my final interview from #BravoCon, I spoke with Heather Dubrow about Season 19 of #RHOC — we talked about her dad, Katie Ginella stopping filming midseason, how stories about off-camera people hurt the show — and those Gretchen Rossi Instagram likes. Do read! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

I interviewed Frances Berwick, the chairman of Bravo and Peacock, and we MENTIONED IT ALL.

At #BravoCon just now, Andy Cohen announced the full cast of "The Real Housewives of Rhode Island," which yes, include Ashley Iaconetti and Dolores Catania — and he says #RHONY will begin filming soon. Also, the "Rhode Island" trailer looks hilarious. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Vicki Gunvalson will be back on "Real Housewives of Orange County" for Season 20! #RHOC variety.com/2025/tv/news...

We spoke with Kyle Richards at #BravoCon about her decision to return to #RHOBH for Season 15, how she doesn't like to label her sexuality and her current friendship status with Dorit. (NOT GREAT, BOB.) variety.com/2025/tv/news...

#RHOP star Karen Huger has recorded a sitdown interview with Andy Cohen that will run during the Season 10 finale. The cameras also picked up to film Wendy and Eddie Osefo after they were arrested and charged for fraud! Dispatch from #BravoCon. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

For our #StrangerThings cover story, @adambvary.bsky.social and I interviewed one zillion people, and asked all of them about their final day working on the show. Adam put that reporting together into an oral history of the last days of "Stranger Things." Enjoy! variety.com/2025/tv/feat...

As @kateaurthur.bsky.social and I were reporting out our #StrangerThings cover from last month, the show's cast kept telling us vivid, emotional about their final days on the show. So we put them all together in this (spoiler free) oral history.

Suddenly finding myself loving Joyce Carol Oates for the first time since reading the short story "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" after seeing the movie "Smooth Talk." 2025 is very strange!

In the CBC podcast, "Allison After NXIVIM," Allison Mack tells her story for the first time ever. It drops today, and is weekly. I've listened to all seven episodes, and it's EXCELLENT — the perfect format for this harrowing, sad story. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

I interviewed Sarah Snook about #AllHerFault, her first television role since #Succession ended. This show is BATSHIT, and very fun, and has a million twists and turns. We talked about it all, plus... what she thinks Shiv would be up to today! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

People of #SellingSunset! You will want to read this interview with Chrishell Stause. Is she... quitting? variety.com/2025/tv/news...

The people have spoken! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

So the president of the United States plans to meet with Putin in Hungary, and when a reporter asked where that plan came from, this was the reply of the United States government www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Finally, this was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've ever had working on a big story. A great deal of that is because I got to work so closely with Kate — my colleague, friend, and work spouse of nearly 12 years (!), who made the reporting and writing process so much fun. So please read! END

Excited this is out! @adambvary.bsky.social and I did the first sitdown with Matt and Ross Duffer about the final season of #StrangerThings. We discussed how they planned "Stranger Things 5," leaving Netflix for Paramount and crying through the show's last days. Do read! variety.com/2025/tv/feat...

It was a pleasure to work with (not on BlueSky!) Dan D'Addario on this week's cover story: A profile of Charlie Hunnam, who plays Ed Gein in the new season of "Monster," premiering on Friday. One of Dan's best, as I keep telling him, which is a high bar! Do read. variety.com/2025/tv/feat...
