Our Hate-Love-Hate Relationship with the New Captain America
<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-04-10T14:25:29+00:00“>April 10, 2021 | 10:25am ET Warning: Major spoilers for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. He didn’t have to do anything for us to hate him. All John Walker (Wyatt Russell) had to do to earn our ill will was not be Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie). Falcon relinquished the shield Steve Rogers gave to him out of an abiding respect for his friend, a sense that what the original Captain America accomplished was unique and personal. Handing that symbol of Steve’s accomplishments over to the Smithsonian was a sign that Sam intended to honor his friend’s legacy without taking on his mantle. So, when some random new guy assumes that mantle, replete with the shield Falcon re...

Place Your Bets: Who Will Win The Challenge: Double Agents?
A Challenge game that started with 30 contestants — an Olympian, a WWE superstar and Big Brother winners among them — has been reduced to a final collection of eight Double Agents. So now that the final four teams have been locked, the question is: Who will win? After a commanding victory by Kam and Cory in “Escape the Volcano,” a mini-final that found the game’s remaining ladies racing through a 10-mile course to rescue their partners from a volcano, Kyle found himself in hot water. He knew without a win, he was likely to be thrown into the Crater, and after Fessy was named the house’s elimination-round vote, the Double Agents sealed Kyle’s fate. He would have to face off against the hulking Fessy in “Hall Brawl,” and most of Kyle’s fellow competitors thought he’d be lucky to come out ali...
Kung Fu Star Olivia Liang Has The Fight In Her
Even before the full question has been uttered, Olivia Liang sounds as if she’s been momentarily caught off-guard, and understandably so: Little feels as absurd as being asked to explain your Instagram bio. That’s where the 27-year-old actress describes herself as a “sewer dumpling.” “Um,” she pauses, then fills the brief silence with an earful of welcoming laughter. “I don’t ever want to take myself too seriously. I love dumplings,” she says. “But I also like to describe myself sometimes as a ‘trash goblin’ when I’m looking really rough. Just marrying those two things.” Those who have seen Liang act — as the brooding witch with a tragic backstory Alyssa Chang in Legacies or, most recently, the San Franciscan martial-artist Nicky Shen in the CW’s action series Kung Fu, which pr...
