On one hand, it’ll give you binge-worthy shows to live by and on the other, it’ll continue to show the true colors of a star steadily on the downfall. Check out how T.V. brought the winners below, then hit the next page to watch it shine light on the losers. Winners Show Trailers  It’s clear in the coming months, many T.V. bingers won’t be leaving their place of residence for quite some time. This week was full of trailers that got people HYPE for their favorite shows returning. First up was the trailer for the eighth and final season of HBO’s Game of Thrones , and it was full of scream-worthy moments. A faceless Arya is running from the unknown, Jon and Daeny hint at an emotional story arc and, of course, the battle sequences are hinting to be something EPIC.   GoT fans were not prepared… Game Of Thrones is more than just a tv show, it’s a movement. — Mpumz. (@_Mpumz) March 8, 2019 Game of thrones twitter > all other twitter. — Molly Jong-Fast (@MollyJongFast) March 5, 2019 Then, for fans of the Netflix teen dramedy On My Block , folks finally got a tiny glimpse of what’s to come in an emotional trailer. Will Monse and Cesar continue their love affair, despite Cesar’s allegiance to a gang? Will Jamal come into new wealth thanks to his epic neighborhood discovery? And of course, the beloved character Ruby had viewers on the edge of their seat last season when he faced a life-threatening situation. His appearance in the trailer definitely got people in their feelings.   The Internet was pleased. Im soo excited! This is one of the best trailers ive ever seen!!! cant wait! pic.twitter.com/KsF0tDJRiX — Sydney (@Grand_ma_Syd) March 7, 2019   Finally, Netflix hit us with another teaser thanks to the trailer for She’s Gotta Have It. It didn’t say much, but it continued that burning question when it comes to the sex positive, sometimes messy lead character… Who is Nola Darling?   Guess we’ll have to find out May 24. 2019 T.V. is looking bright. And as a bonus, if you need a tear-jerker show about self-love and empowerment, the Queer Eye trailer is sure to bring the waterfalls.

Shonda Rhimes’ Show ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Makes Television History

Posted on March 3, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

T hroughout her career journey, Shonda Rhimes has continued to set the bar high in the entertainment industry. She is the first Black woman to develop and executive produce a Top 10 network series and she is continuing to make historic moves. According to the Huffington Post , Rhimes’ show Grey’s Anatomy hit a major milestone, becoming the longest-running medical drama in U.S. television history. “A lot has happened in 332 episodes and tomorrow we become the longest-running primetime medical drama,” she wrote. “People. You don’t want to miss this!” https://t.co/YQbq3bbf88 — HuffPost BlackVoices (@blackvoices) February 28, 2019 On Thursday, when the show aired its 332nd episode, it took the title away from ER which ran for 15 seasons and had a total of 331 episodes. The current cast of Grey’s Anatomy features actors Jesse Williams , Ellen Pompeo and Justin Chambers . The show made its debut in 2005 and has been going strong ever since. “I wanted to see people on television who look like me, and I wanted to see people on television who look like my friends. And I didn’t relate to a lot of the women on television because they didn’t seem realistic. It was just about writing people I wanted to watch, and writing people who felt like the people I knew. That’s what we ended up doing,” said Rhimes in an interview with Business Insider . She also added that it’s important to authentically bring narratives to life when working in television and not chase trends. “The goal is to make sure it’s not a trend. I don’t know what I can do to encourage it. I tell the stories I tell and I do it naturally.” Rhimes has seen success with many of the projects that she’s created including Private Practice , Scandal , and How to Get Away with Murder . In 2017, she inked a multi-year deal with Netflix where through her Shondaland production company she will develop eight series.

Mexican Cartel Leader El Chapo Found Guilty

Posted on February 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Read the original post:

It took a while, but Mexican cartel leader  Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán Loera was convicted today (Feb. 12) in a Brooklyn federal district court of multiple crimes including operating a continuing criminal enterprise and multiple charges of conspiracy to import and distribute cocaine, heroin and marijuana.  He was found guilty of all the charges he was facing. El Chapo is also infamous for escaping not one but two supermax prisons in Mexico. But don’t expect such finesse stateside. Reports the New York Times : The guilty verdict against the kingpin, whose real name is Joaquín Guzmán Loera, ended the career of a legendary outlaw who also served as a dark folk hero in Mexico, notorious for his innovative smuggling tactics, his violence against competitors, his storied prison breaks and his nearly unstoppable ability to evade the Mexican authorities. The jury’s decision came more than a week after the panel started deliberations at the trial in Federal District Court in Brooklyn where prosecutors presented a mountain of evidence against the cartel leader, including testimony from 56 witnesses, 14 of whom once worked with Mr. Guzmán. He faces life in prison at his sentencing. Needless to say, the trial was bananas. Case in point: At times, the trial was so bizarre it felt like a drug-world telenovela unfolding live in the courtroom. Last month, one of Mr. Guzmán’s mistresses tearfully proclaimed her love for him even as she testified against him from the stand. The following day, in what seemed like a coordinated show of solidarity, the kingpin and his wife, Emma Coronel Aispuro, appeared in court in matching red velvet smoking jackets. Toward the end of the proceeding, Alejandro Edda, an actor who plays El Chapo on the Netflix series “Narcos: Mexico,” showed up at the trial to study Mr. Guzmán. The crime lord flashed an ecstatic smile when told Mr. Edda had come to see him. El Chapo is accused of making a whopping $14 billion during his run. It was revealed during the trial that he once paid an ex-Mexican President a $100M bribe . The Sinaloa Cartel is still active. — Photo: Getty

Posted on January 29, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Capcom Resident Evil 2 currently has gamers clutching their pearls and now news of TV series based on the fan-favorite survival horror franchise has surfaced.  Deadline exclusively reports Netflix is developing a scripted series loosely based on the video game franchise “that will explore the dark inner workings of the Umbrella Corporation and the new world order caused by the outbreak of the T-virus.” Constantin Film, the studio behind the highly-successful  Resident Evil film franchise helmed by Paul W.S. Anderson starring his wife Mila Jovovich as the main protagonist Alice will also be working on the show. Per Deadline: “The drama series will explore the dark inner workings of the Umbrella Corporation and the new world order caused by the outbreak of the T-virus. While the project is in the early stages, the series is expected to incorporate all of Resident Evil’s signature elements, including action sequences and “easter eggs.” No word on whether the show will be in the same universe of the movies or will starts fresh. This news also comes on the helms of a report of the studio hiring Johannes Roberts to write and direct a Resident Evil reboot with a new cast that will reportedly be based on the Resident Evil VII game taking the franchise back to its horror roots. — Photo: Capcom
