Lucas Moura: Tottenham squad united behind Jose Mourinho
Lucas Moura has insisted that the whole Tottenham squad are united behind under-fire boss Jose Mourinho amid the club’s turbulent 2020-21 campaign. Mourinho’s position in the Spurs dugout has been called into question in the wake of a nightmare week which saw the team follow up a north London derby defeat to Arsenal by exiting the Europa League in shocking fashion at the hands of Dinamo Zagreb. Spurs were thrashed 3-0 in the second leg of that last-16 tie in Croatia, but responded by beating Aston Villa 2-0 in the Premier League on Sunday, with Moura issuing a rallying cry in his post-match interview. “It’s been a very bad week for us, the feeling was very bad,” the Spurs winger told the Evening Standard : “Last night, we showed our nature, we showed attitude. “The good thing about footbal...
‘I’m F*cking Leaving’: Is Gus Gone For Good On MTV Floribama Shore?
The MTV Floribama Shore roomies have fought over toothpaste, chicken and now, a blow dryer. But the beauty product-related spat, which unfolded during tonight’s brand-new episode, resulted in Gus bolting out the door — and sprinting from the cameras. What happened? After a week in Florida Montana, Candace was searching for her hair accessory and couldn’t locate it. Eventually, she found it in the guys’ bathroom and wanted to get to the bottom of her discovery. “Gus, did you steal my hair dryer?” she asked him, while he was working out. “I think so — it’s in our bathroom,” he innocently answered. But Candace wasn’t happy, to which Gus replied, “Codi’s been using it too. Don’t come at me like that.” ...

Three More Game of Thrones Spinoffs in Development at HBO
HBO is developing three additional Game of Thrones spinoffs, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Two of the prequels have the working titles of 9 Voyages and 10,000 Ships, respectively. 9 Voyages is centered around Lord Corlys Velaryon, a.k.a. The Sea Snake, the Lord of the Tides and head of House Velaryon. Velaryon also appears in the previously announced House of the Dragon, in which he’s played by Steve Toussaint. 10,000 Ships is about warrior queen Princess Nymeria, an ancestor of House Martell who founded the kingdom of Dorne. Two characters in the original series, Sand Snake Nymeria Sand and Arya’s direwolf, bore her name. Her story is set roughly 1,000 years before Game of Thrones, so it takes place way before the Westeros timeline than any of the other previously announc...
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Stumbles Slightly on Takeoff: Review
The Pitch: In the wake of the blip and the events of Avengers: Endgame, Sam Wilson, aka The Falcon (Anthony Mackie), has settled into a modest life of crimefighting with his signature wingsuit. Why isn’t he the new Captain America?, eagle-eyed Endgame viewers might be asking; after all, Old Cap handed him the signature star-spangled shield the last time we saw him. Well, Sam feels uncomfortable with the weight and responsibility of the title — it feels “like someone else’s.” Meanwhile, former Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) is wrestling with his own post-terrorist trauma, struggling to reintegrate into society after ninety years of cryogenically-frozen evildoing. But the two might get drawn back into each other’s orbits with the arrival of a mysterious flash mob...
Double Agents Do-Over: Can Big T Trust Challenge Partner CT?
If the cheese stands alone, call Double Agents favorite Big T a blue-ribbon camembert. The Brit-bred Challenge star — who’s defied expectations across Season 36 — is now the game’s only competitor without a Gold Skull. But now that she’s got her old partner back, will she finally have a chance to earn her own? And, more importantly, can she trust CT — who burned her big time — to get her back into The Crater? On the most recent Double Agents episode, teams dove into the deep unknown in “Undercover,” which challenged them to submerge themselves into some of Iceland’s clearest (and coldest) waters, collect a series of coded rings between two tectonic plates and use the rings to solve a puzzle once back ashore. For some competitors — like CT — it was a struggle. Though he and Kam were one of ...
King of the Hill in “Hot Negotiations” for Revival Set 15 Years Later
I tell you what, co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels are in “hot negotiations” to revive King of the Hill and set it 15 years after the original. There had been discussions around a reboot of the beloved animated series in 2017, but momentum stalled at the time. Former writer Brent Forrester revealed the renewed interest in a recent Reddit AMA after being asked by user vancity screnwriter, “Have you heard any updates as to the possible King of the Hill revival? Aging the cast of characters would be a stroke of genius and practically reinvent the show (in an awesome way!)” Forrester obliged with an answer: “I am sure Greg Daniels and Mike Judge will murder me for sharing this but… HELL YES. They are in hot negotiations to bring back King of the Hill. The Trump administrat...
Natasha Lyonne to Star in Rian Johnson’s New TV Series Poker Face
Two years after making a smash hit whodunnit with some of the biggest names in Hollywood, Rian Johnson is ready to solve a different case. Earlier today, Peacock announced that the filmmaker will serve as the creator, writer, and director of a new mystery TV series called Poker Face on the streaming service. It turns out Natasha Lyonne is already onboard as a star and executive producer for the show, too. Right now, Poker Face will consist of 10 episodes. There’s no word yet on whether or not it will be a limited series or who else will star alongside the Russian Doll actress. What we do know is that this is Johnson’s first time writing a TV show, but not his first foray as a director on one. In the early 2010s, he was responsible for directing three episodes of Breaking Bad — including th...
‘It Was Empowering’: Teen Mom OG‘s Catelynn And Tyler Voted For The Very First Time

And during tonight’s Teen Mom OG episode, the longtime couple stuck to their word and voted for the very first time. And they made sure to bring their daughters Novalee and Vaeda along for the memorable experience. “You voted!” an enthusiastic Cate told Novalee as they emerged from their Michigan polling place. “You helped me fill in the circle, didn’t you?” After the Baltierras returned home, Tyler told Cate he “felt good doing it” and Cate admitted she couldn’t wait to see who won. “I felt like it was empowering, especially as women,” Cate told her husband about bringing their little girls along for the civic duty. “...
