Billions Pilot Season 1 Episode 1 Editor’s Rating 4 stars **** Previous Next» Damian Lewis as Bobby “Axe” Axelrod. Photo: JoJo Whilden/Showtime Welcome to the world of Billions, where there’s no gray area between friends and enemies. Showtime’s latest examination of the white-male psyche stars award-winners Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis, ably assisted by a well-cast ensemble. Though it’s more soap opera than insightful Wall Street commentary, Billions can be a promising roller-coaster of cutthroat egos if you approach it with the right attitude. It’s got the potential to become a show like House of Cards or Damages: It requires a high suspension of disbelief, but rewards viewers with magnetic performances and film-caliber production values. When we first meet U.S. Attorney Chuck Rhoades (Giamatti), he’s tied up and being “treated” by a dominatrix. With her high-heeled boot on his chest, she burns his … [Read more...] about Series Premiere Recap: Fresh Bull

If it ended Saints 46, Niners 45, which was the score after 59 minutes and 20 seconds, we’d probably still call it the game of the year. But the fact that it didn’t, and the fact that something happened on fourth-and-2 that immediately takes its place in all-time 49ers lore, and vaulted San Francisco from fifth to first in the NFC playoff race with three games to go, well, that makes it all NFL Filmsy/tingly and massively important in the playoff race at the same time. “The whole day,” George Kittle said an hour after it was over, “for me, was one of the best experiences of my life. The place was crazy, fans were nuts, you couldn’t hear. Such a fun … [Read more...] about FMIA Week 14: How George Kittle and the ‘Choice’ Route Helped Lift 49ers Over Saints in the Game of the Year

John Ericson killed his wife by striking her head with a tomahawk as she slept. During his nearly two decades behind bars he made a daring escape, went on a hunger strike and mounted numerous challenges against his murder conviction and treatment by authorities. Now, weeks after being released on parole, he's planning a last ditch effort to clear his name. The victim's family just want him to go away. BLAIR ENSOR reports. John Ericson's one bedroom flat in Christchurch isn't much different to the minimum-security unit where he spent his final days in jail. He cooks using a microwave, a portable stove and  a bench-top grill. He does his dishes by hand. His clothes dry on a clothes horse. Each morning, Ericson drives to his engineering job in a white Jaguar bought using money earned working in his final year as an inmate. In the evening he sits in an armchair on the porch, smoking cigarettes.   The 56-year-old is enjoying his new-found freedom after nearly two decades in … [Read more...] about Axe murderer John Ericson plans Privy Council appeal as victim’s family say he’s a ‘pathological liar’

“Wait here by the clubhouse. He’ll be with you shortly.”The clubhouse is pretty and still, like a painting. Statuesque too, against the fluorescent green carpets that is the Albany Golf Course in the Bahamas. But today the picture-perfect clubhouse is merely a backdrop, just as acacia trees and lemon suns are when you’re out looking for lions.Or, in this case, a tiger.Some half hour of waiting in the pristine silence later, a clutch of journalists, TV reporters and clubhouse members notice Tiger Woods emerge up the stairs, walking besides Pawan Munjal, owner of Hero MotoCorp and the primary sponsor of the Hero World Challenge. Woods and Munjal are in the middle of a conversation and they share easy smiles.In a sapphire blue tee, Woods doesn’t look as daunting as he does when he dons the blood-red shirt he has made famous world over. But a tiger doesn’t lose its stripes; when a journalist’s recording device is held a little too close to his … [Read more...] about A human face behind the stripes

It’s just before 9 a.m. on an overcast February morning. About 60 fifth graders at a Harlem charter school have just filed into a multipurpose room to hear architect Phil Freelon talk about his career-defining work on the National Museum of African American History and Culture, or NMAAHC, in Washington, D.C., the universally celebrated newest addition to the Smithsonian Institution. But before he gets to his lesson about the design—a brilliant, bronze-hued building that alights the Mall like a shining crown—he warms up the crowd by letting them in on a secret: He once played drums in a band with his brother, Gregory Freelon, a teacher at the school. The room’s energy perks up as students whisper; Phil has instantly connected to each of them. Now it’s time for the meatier part of his talk. advertisement advertisement Eager hands shoot into the air. “Art is a subject of creativity,” a boy says. “It’s expressing … [Read more...] about America’s Humanitarian Architect

The oldest joke on record, a Sumerian proverb, was first told all the way back in 1900 B.C. Yes, it was a fart joke: “Something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband’s lap.” Don’t feel bad if you don’t get it — something was definitely lost in time and translation (you have to imagine it was the Mesopotamian equivalent of “Women be shopping”), but not before the joke helped pave the way for almost 4,000 years of toilet humor. It’s just a shame we’ll never know the name of the Sumerian genius to whom we owe Blazing Saddles. But with the rise of comedy as a commercial art form in the 20th century, and with advances in modern bookkeeping, it’s now much easier to assign credit for innovations in joke-telling, which is exactly what Vulture set out to do with this list of the 100 Jokes That Shaped Modern Comedy. A few notes on our methodology: We’ve … [Read more...] about The 100 Jokes That Shaped Modern Comedy
