It finally happened. The Sizable Streaming Switch, as we’ll recount it to our grandchildren (we become fond of alliteration in our old age), involved that perennial Netflix faveThe Officeheading on home to the NBC-owned streaming service Peacock. While this move comes with some bonuses for loyal Dunder-Mifflin employees — likenever-before-seen footagegetting dropped in your laps — the deal definitely favors Peacock’s fortunes. They need to do what they can to play with the big, established dogs of streaming, including the aforementioned Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, and HBO Max (which recently made their own splashy deal by throwingall of Warner Bros....

Check out our full review coverage of new and returning fall TVhere. “First Time Again,” the Season 6 premiere ofThe Walking Dead, employs a bit of a rote stylistic tic in its separation of the past and present, using black-and-white footage to designate the old and color to represent the new. It’s the only truly irksome part of the otherwise stellar opening of Season 6, but it offers one truly haunting image at the start of the episode, which revisits the moment when Rick (Andrew Lincoln) shot Pete (Corey Brill) and Morgan (Lennie James) entered Alexandria....

One of the most notorious genres for franchising and sequels is horror. That’s not to say it’s a bad thing, some of the best horror movies ever are part of a franchise, one of them being 1981’sThe Evil Dead. However,The Evil Deadfilms feel separated from most franchises as they tend to do their own thing....

Prepare to have your mind blown and heart broken at these wild behind-the-scenes feuds at the core of your favorite TV shows and movies. Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson - The Fate of the Furious There’s one word at the center of theFast & Furiousfranchise. No, it’s not “car.” Or “fight.” Or “big-explosions-that-go-kapow-kablooey,” because that’s a bunch of words and you’re cheating. It’s “family.” It’s what unites the characters. But not, apparently, what unites two of the franchise’s biggest stars....

TIFF is shaping up to be, well, TIFF. Every year there’s a deluge of movies we want to see, and then there’s a deluge on top of that deluge so that your schedule is pretty much hopeless when it comes to seeing all the movies you want to catch at the festival. It’s an embarrassment of riches, and TIFF just piled more movies into their Galas and Special Presentations lineup....

There were many things that madeTrue DetectiveSeason 2 a sea change from Season 1, but none were perhaps more striking than the lack of directorCary Fukunaga’s presence. Though the rotating group of episode directors did admirably imitate some of Fukunaga’s Season 1 style, Fukunaga’s rumored tempering of series creator/writerNic Pizzolattowas the mystery element whose absence was acutely felt. Though Fukunaga was listed as an executive producer for Season 2, he recentlytoldVarietythat...
