My Favorite TV Shows of 2025, Ranked by Vibes, Emotional Damage, and How Fast I Hit “Next Episode”
No particular order, because ranking art is how streaming apps turn joy into spreadsheets. Every year, television looks at America’s collective attention span, flicks it on the forehead, and says, “Come here, I made you something complicated.” In 2025, it felt like the medium finally admitted what we all already know, most of us are

The Game Awards 2025 and the Night One Game Ate the Stage
Eight trophies, one gravitational center, and an industry that briefly convinced itself this was destiny rather than appetite. The Game Awards 2025 unfolded like a formal ceremony that accidentally wandered into a single studio’s victory party and then politely decided not to leave. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 did not simply win big. It became the

Abraham Quintanilla, The Father Who Built the Selena Vault, Has Died and the Locks Are Still Warm
Abraham Isaac Quintanilla Jr. was the architect, the gatekeeper, the father, the manager, and the human perimeter fence around Selena’s life, and now that he’s gone, the argument over protection versus possession will keep pacing the room. Abraham Isaac Quintanilla Jr., Selena Quintanilla-Pérez’s father, longtime manager, and the engine behind Selena y Los Dinos, died

Congress Drops Epstein Party Photos Like It’s a Playlist and Calls It Oversight
A small, redacted photo dump, a much larger unseen archive, and a political system that treats transparency like a weapon and privacy like an afterthought. House Democrats on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee just did what Congress does best in an election-era adrenaline rush: released a limited batch of images from a vastly larger

Hillary, Kamala, Pelosi, Elizabeth, AOC, Klobuchar, and Jasmine Crockett: Left’s Favorite Sport Is Nitpicking Strong Women
The résumé is flawless, the vibes are “off,” and somehow the safe choice is always some guy who thinks subcommittee work is a type of sandwich. The modern American left has a recurring ritual that looks like accountability from far away and feels like sabotage up close. It begins when an accomplished woman steps forward

The Art of the Foreclosure: How the Trump Peace Plan Turned Sovereignty Into a Distressed Asset
We are watching the privatization of geopolitics, where nations are not conquered but liquidated for pennies on the dollar. It was inevitable that the end of the post-war international order would not arrive with a bang or a whimper, but with the slap of a leather portfolio on a mahogany table. The portfolio in question

The Golden Globes: Where We Pretend to Care About Art While Worshiping at the Altar of Marketing Spend
Paul Thomas Anderson wins the math, but Wicked won the culture, and my heart belongs to a movie about kicking. The Golden Globes have always been the drunk uncle of the awards season family reunion. They are loud, occasionally embarrassing, and usually smell faintly of desperate bribery. But this year, the nominations announcement felt less

The Battle of the Billionaire Kaiju: Netflix and Paramount Fight to See Who Gets to Kill Cinema
The ink wasn’t even dry on the surrender treaty before a new warlord arrived with a bigger bag of cash and a scarier line of credit. Just when we thought the funeral for the Hollywood studio system was over, just when we had resigned ourselves to a future where Warner Bros. was merely a sub-directory

How Donald Trump Turned the Kennedy Center Honors into a MAGA Variety Hour
The nation’s premier cultural institution has been rebranded as a Atlantic City lounge act, and the price of admission is your dignity. The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was designed as a living memorial to a slain president, a marble temple on the Potomac intended to elevate the American spirit through the

Apple’s Spaceship Has a Hull Breach: Why the Smartest Guys in the Room Are Ejecting
Tim Cook is wandering the halls of the Infinite Loop with a roll of duct tape and a bag of stock options, but the airlock is already open. There is a specific kind of panic that sets in when the invincible object suddenly cracks. For the last decade, Apple has been the monolith of Silicon
