There are many ways to kill a spotted lanternfly. One is the classic stomp: raising a foot high before hammering it into the sidewalk and hopefully flattening one of the distinctive bugs. Another is the shoe-swinging method, in which New Yorkers sacrificially tread barefoot on city streets so as to use their footwear as killing instruments. hero.”People across all five boroughs have dutifully followed the city’s directive to kill the invasive insects on sight. So far this year, the bugs have been documented riding the subway, littering streets and even infiltrating apartments, evidence of a trend that experts anticipated: New York City’s lanternfly problem is getting worse.

Schultz wrote about how he helped craft the show's fictional presidential election. A former Obama White House aide who worked with writers on crafting the chaotic end to the show's fictional presidential election expressed hope that the brief chapter in the Roys' saga doesn't become real life. "With Succession, I can only hope we didn't predict the future and that, ultimately, life does not imitate art." Roman Roy, played by Kieran Culkin, teases his sister Shiv by saying "False Flag" repeatedly when she raises the possibility of a pro-Mencken plot.

CNN —Dragons and zombies and Jedi, oh my. HBO’s gaudy show of force – with half the best-drama nominees and 127 bids overall, the highest total of any individual network or service – featured a combination of both. "Obi-Wan Kenobi," starring Ewan McGregor, was one of three "Star Wars" series to receive multiple Emmy nominations. Fabio Lovino/HBOWhen those nominees need to begin rehearsing their acceptance speeches is itself a source of mystery as of now. The last time a delay of the Emmys happened: 2001, after the September 11 terror attacks.

The moment of triumph for HBO is coming at a time of transition for the network, which since last year has been run by a debt-ridden parent company, Warner Bros. The network is now part of a streaming service that removed its call letters (bye HBO Max, hello Max). HBO had the three most nominated shows: “Succession” (27), “The Last of Us” (24) and “The White Lotus” (23). It was in 1992, when NBC landed nominations for “I’ll Fly Away,” “L.A. Law,” “Law & Order” and “Quantum Leap.” All four series lost to that year’s winner, “Northern Exposure,” from CBS.

CNN —When it comes to weird fan interactions, Pedro Pascal wins. During roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter, Pascal had a chat with Jeff Bridges, Kieran Culkin, Damson Idris, Michael Imperioli, and Evan Peters. Talk turned to some interesting encounters with viewers of their shows. “And then I remember getting a bit of an eye infection.”Yikes! During the fourth season of the hit HBO series, Pascal’s character is killed by Gregor “The Mountain” Clegane (played by Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson), who gouges his eyes out before cracking his skull.
There are really no good choices for who should succeed Logan Roy in "Succession." She also fakes authenticity — a power move, one expert told Insider. The show revolves around the deeply dysfunctional Roy family and the jockeying to succeed Logan Roy, the recently deceased patriarch played by Brian Cox, as head of the family media empire, Waystar Royco, loosely based on Fox News and News Corp. "Shiv seems to be a person who gets relationships," Gino told Insider. The media baron and inspiration for Logan Roy, Rupert Murdoch, the head of News Corp, also has stirred speculation over which of his children might succeed him at the top of the home of Fox News.
“Succession” has treated us to both a wedding and a funeral as fate of the Roy siblings spin out towards its finale (which is produced by Warner Bros. Discovery, parent company of CNN), and its penultimate episode gave us mourning dress codes in a grand Catholic setting. “I can do anything — my dad just died,” Shiv responds when asked for a favor at the mass. By episode nine, with the company in a shaky post-Logan transition, the optics of how the Roy siblings perform at the funeral hold a lot of weight. Emotions must be stamped down, they maintain a fragile façade, and getting too close to the truth of Logan Roy is met with a wall of cognitive dissonance.
(Caroline introduces Sally Ann as “my Kerry.”) These ladies share the bond of having loved a very difficult man; and when Marcia reaches out for Kerry’s hand, Kerry sobs. Logan’s fiery liberal brother, Ewan (James Cromwell), ignores his grandson Greg’s attempt to stop him from taking the pulpit. Roman has never had this kind of spotlight; and now his siblings expect him to “say the other side” of the Logan Roy story. Roman starts to give his generic “great, great man” speech, but then freezes and asks his family to bail him out. He acknowledges the pain his father could cause but he also celebrates how Logan made “bloody, complicated life” happen.
Alan Ruck Is Ready to Leave the Roy Family

The article includes spoilers for the most recent episode of “Succession.”One of the most impressive tricks HBO’s “Succession” has played on viewers over the course of four seasons is generating sympathy for reprehensible people. Sunday’s episode, in which democracy is discarded, apparently because Roman Roy (Kieran Culkin) had to eat too much chicken as a child, puts most of that sympathy to rest. It was perhaps the darkest moment for a character who has largely been relegated to buffoon status, but Ruck sees Connor’s ignorance as his main political tool. “He’ll believe whatever sounds good to him that day,” Ruck said in a recent video call full of vivid anecdotes and laughter. “He’ll read something online or he’ll hear something on television, then that’ll become, like, the central plank of his platform for that day.
If Roman Roy were a real person, he wouldn’t live on the Upper West Side. So said a real-life real estate broker recently. Fans of the show were there with Roman (played by Kieran Culkin) during a recent episode when he solemnly brushed his teeth the morning after a devastating plot twist. Daniella G. Schlisser, the real-life associate broker with Brown Harris Stevens and a listing agent for the apartment, said that if Roman were a real person, she would redirect him south, probably to TriBeCa, where he might receiver a warmer welcome. Given his winning personality, she’d advise him: “No one’s going to talk to you here — you won’t make any friends” in the family-oriented Upper West Side.
Which brings us to a fantastic story about Wells Fargo's decision to reorganize how it serves its ultra-rich clients. And while many understood some changes were necessary, nearly everyone agreed the bank didn't go about it the right way. Read more about Wells Fargo's chaotic reorganization of its private bank. It's the latest move in what has been an active 12 months for the bank's tech division. The accounting firm had signed off on financial statements from Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic, the Financial Times reports.
Equine art lives in many airports: Seattle and San Francisco have bronze horses shaped like driftwood, Central Illinois has wire horses suspended from the ceiling, Tucson has a winged horse and Barcelona has a burly horse. None of them have a horse like Blucifer. Rearing 32 feet tall in a median outside Denver International Airport, the cobalt-colored, demon-eyed, vein-streaked steed has terrified travelers and mobilized conspiracy theorists since it arrived 15 years ago. First, though, it killed its creator. The horse came to stand for something darker: In 2006, as Mr. Jimenez was finishing the 9,000-pound cast-fiberglass sculpture, a piece came loose and fatally severed an artery in his leg.
The penthouse at 180 East 88th Street, which featured as the home of Jeremy Strong’s character in HBO’s Emmy-winning hit show, “Succession,” is on sale for $29 million. A spiral staircase leads to the second floor and to the roof landing. Sean HemmerleThe interior of the five-bedroom apartment covers 5,508 square feet and includes two living rooms, four bathrooms, a private elevator and a spectacular, sculptural spiral staircase. Sean HemmerleThe three-story home was originally listed by Corcoran for $33 million in 2022, but dropped to its current price this year. And for anyone with a bit more to spend, Roman Roy’s (Kieran Culkin) equally opulent Upper West Side apartment is also on sale, for a cool $38 million.
By now, we should be used to HBO’s series pulling the rug out from beneath our expectations. Still, as more than one pundit observed of Logan’s death, this one shocked more than merely surprised. Not me, though I do miss Brian Cox already because few actors anywhere are as adroit at playing dyspeptic sociopaths. It would be at the very least ironic if “Greg the Egg,” the minion’s minion, stumbled into power as if he tripped on a sidewalk. I’ll say no more on this except to suggest that you all try to remember who in the end won that “Game of Thrones.” It’s not inevitable.
NEW YORK, March 21 (Reuters) - "Succession" actor Brian Cox briefly turned into his commanding patriarchal character Logan Roy on the red carpet on Monday, as the cast of the hit HBO drama premiered its fourth and final season. Season four will see Logan edge closer to selling his company to tech boss Lukas Matsson, creating more family divisions and power struggles. “We're going to see a lot of fascinating rides and it's a bit like a roller coaster," Cox told Reuters at the New York premiere. I think people are going to love it... A lot of American shows go on well past their sell by date.

Brenda Song famously played London Tipton on "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody." Song opened up about what life was like as a child actor back then, and how her family helped. While Song had a supportive immediate family as a child actor, she opened up in an interview with Glamour about some of the struggles she faced in pursuing her childhood dream. "I have a very different experience as a child actor," Song said, "My mom had me at 17 and my dad was a teacher and still in school. That year my mom got diagnosed with breast cancer, and I booked "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" and got accepted to Harvard University, all within a few weeks."

CNN —They say artists have to be willing to do anything for their art, and for Joe Pesci, that includes setting his head on fire. “It was a nice change of pace to do that particular type of slapstick comedy,” Pesci said of making the first two “Home Alone” films in the email interview, published on Tuesday. In the uber-successful franchise, Pesci played one half a bungling thief duo (alongside Daniel Stern) who is continually one-upped by a clever kid played by Macaulay Culkin. He acknowledged that the movies “were a more physical type of comedy, therefore, a little more demanding.”One example – when Pesci’s character Harry walks unsuspectingly into a booby trap laid by Culkin’s Kevin, leading to a fiery finish. (Pesci did not clarify during which film he sustained his injury.)
On Monday, the first teaser for upcoming sequel, “A Christmas Story Christmas,” was released, and it promises to be a nostalgic trip down memory lane. The new film follows a now-grown Ralphie Parker, the blond protagonist again played by actor Peter Billingsley.

Americanii doresc să elimine scena din „Singur Acasă 2” în care Donald Trump se întâlnește cu Macaulay CulkinDupă blocarea lui Donald Trump pe Twitter și pe majoritatea rețelelor sociale, un număr de utilizatori ai acestora au sugerat ca președintele american în funcție să fie tăiat și din filmul de cult „Singur Acasă 2” în care apare pentru câteva secunde, scrie The Independent. Utilizatorii au sugerat ca imaginea lui Trump să fie ștearsă digital din film, iar în locul lui să fie editat un cameo al lui Macaulay Culkin adult, acum în vârstă de 40 de ani. Actorul însuși s-a declarat încântat de idee, scrie digi24.ro. Chris Columbus, regizorul filmului, spunea anul trecut că Donald Trump a pus apariția sa în film drept condiție pentru ca scenele respective să poată fi filmate în hotelul său, pe lângă o sumă de bani plătită hotelului. În 1992, anul în care a fost lansată pelicula, Donald Trump era proprietarul acelui hotel.
