The webs of romance in Bridgerton easily captured the top spot among all streaming titles for the show’s return. Theatrical flop Madame Web, meanwhile, found a promising start to its streaming life.
Bridgerton drew 2.76 billion minutes of viewing time in the United States for the week of May 13-19. The first half of season three premiered on May 16, and Nielsen says those four episodes accounted for 70 percent of the total, or about 1.93 billion minutes — which would still have ranked No. 1 by a wide margin. The remaining 827 million minutes came from the first two seasons.
Madame Web — whose mom was in the Amazon researching spiders right before she died — premiered May 14 on Netflix and racked up 1.16 billion minutes of viewing for the week. That’s equivalent to about 10 million complete showings of the movie, which is part of Sony’s Spider-Man universe and was derided by both critics and audiences...

How do you breathe humanity into a post-nuke, radiation-poisoned America? In Fallout, it comes down to Walton Goggins’ noseless Ghoul, a cyclops vault dweller, bloodthirsty mutated bears and a centuries-decayed Santa Monica Pier, just to name a few of the series’ cataclysmic details.
Amazon MGM Studios’ adaptation of the popular Bethesda video game is set in apocalyptic Los Angeles in 2296, 219 years after an atomic bomb obliterates the U.S. Producers Jonathan “Jonah” Nolan and Lisa Joy tapped longtime collaborator and Emmy-winning VFX supervisor Jay Worth (Westworld, Person of Interest)to build that world alongside showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner.
“It was fun being able to make a sad little love letter to L.A., mixed with all the different challenges that we had storytelling-wise and where visual effects were really able to support and enhance the characters,” Worth tells THR. “That’s all it really comes down to: How can we support the story?...

It’s a known fact that Bethesda has been the titan of the gaming industry for decades. The studio is renowned for creating the Elder Scrolls series, several Fallout games, and the latest, Starfield. These RPGs have defined an entire generation of games and bring players immersive worlds filled with interesting characters and stories to unfold.
One of Bethesda’s lesser-known titles is undoubtedly Prey. The game was released back in 2017 and even received positive reviews but flew under the radar due to the notoriously confused marketing strategy. Despite its issues, Prey gathered a cult following, which prompted Bethesda to give the title two game-changing expansions. Bethesda never likes giving up on its games.

There’s nothing quite memorable like a single-player experience. Over the decades, single-player titles have brought players a level of immersion and intimacy that simply can’t be matched by multiplayer experiences. One of the top dogs in the single-player genre is undoubtedly the fan-favorite studio, Bethesda.
Bethesda’s library of games is filled with incredible single-player titles that have left their mark on the gaming landscape. The studio’s foundation series are Elder Scrolls and Fallout, but we’ve also seen them moving towards new IPs such as Starfield. Despite the genre’s downfall in recent years, Bethesda’s creative director, Todd Howard, and his team have sworn that they’ll never abandon single-player games!

The Elder Scrolls Online (Eso) was released back in 2014. While much of the community appreciated what ZeniMax Online Studios was doing with the Elder Scrolls franchise in an Mmorpg setting, others missed the gravitas of the single-player adventures we saw in Skyrim.
Despite its issues, the game has been received well and has continued to grow over the years, with tons of exciting DLCs under its belt. Although it’s yet to reach the milestones of Skyrim, Elder Scroll Online has one feature that makes it better than anything we’ve seen so far in the series.

Starring as the premier action hero who commands a global reputation, Tom Cruise built upon an undeniable chunk of it from his role as Ethan Hunt in the Mission Impossible series. The spy-thriller regularly increased its stakes as it went from one installment to the next with an overarching plots that only dialed up its intensity and tone, coming a long way from its start back in 1996.

Walton Goggins often portrays characters who transcend time and place, whether in modern day Kentucky, like in FX’s Justified, as career criminal Boyd Crowder, or in Civil War-era Wyoming in Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight, as plucky sheriff Billy Crash. In Fallout, though, he goes further: as The Ghoul, he is 200-year-old apocalypse survivor Cooper Howard, once a favored Western movie star, now a mutant bounty hunter. The two halves of this character combine in a captivating performance for which Goggins was happy to endure a torturous prosthetic.
Deadline: How did you get involved with making Fallout?
Walton Goggins: It started with a conversation actually, a Zoom call, with Jonathan Nolan, Geneva [Robertson-Dworet] and Graham [Wagner]. The three of us got on the phone about eight months before we started shooting, and they just told me about this story that they were making and this role that they wanted me for,...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has more A-list actors than any other major franchise in Hollywood, making stars of newcomers such as Simu Liu, Sebastian Stan, and Tom Holland while also weaving in veterans such as Robert Redford, Samuel L. Jackson, and Cate Blanchett. The sheer amount of talent on display across the MCU’s many movies and TV shows means that, naturally, the MCU has its fingers in every awards show pie. In other awards, you’ll always find an MCU alum or two nominated at any major awards ceremony. So, speaking of that, here are eight MCU actors past and present we think will be nominated for an Emmy this year.
Donald Glover — “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”
Okay, so admittedly Glover isn’t the first name you think of when you conjure up MCU actors, but he did feature in a scene with Holland’s Spider-Man in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” as Aaron Davis,...

This Emmys season was supposed to be a dud. The decidedly weak Drama and Comedy Series categories were supposed to be enough of an embarrassment to make the Television Academy reconsider allowing eight nominees for each. What a difference three months make. The Comedy Series category may not be all wrapped up, in a category switch the Drama Series field landed a likely nominee which would be a historically strong winner, and two late-arriving programs may upend the already insanely competitive Limited Series field.

With the start of Emmy nominations voting arriving on Thursday, campaigning has been happening everywhere, at least in and around Los Angeles.
In recent days, one could find top-tier contenders on FYC panels (Jon Stewart and the other hosts of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show flew out from New York for theirs) and roundtables (check out THR’s), at the Ross House in Mt. Olympus (even campaigning-averse Donald Glover of Mr. and Mrs. Smith showed up), at the races (Sebastian Maniscalco promoted Max’s Bookie at the Santa Anita track) and even on pizza boxes (ABC is pushing Abbott Elementary to consumers of Prime Pizza).
Many chose this moment to share positive news about their contender — for instance, Apple announced the renewal of Palm Royale for a second season. Others, curiously, elected this moment to drop bad news about their contender — HBO/Max announced the cancellation of Tokyo Vice,...

Amazon’s Fallout TV series is arguably one of the best video game adaptations we’ve ever seen. Due to show’s incredible success, many have been wondering if any other Bethesda games will make a similar leap into the world of streaming.
Of course, the top contender on everyone’s tongues is The Elder Scrolls franchise. Although Bethesda’s creative director, Todd Howard, has already shot down multiple pitches for its adaptation, there’s only one actor who can make it a reality, and that’s Henry Cavill.

Bethesda’s The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is arguably one of the best RPGs of all time. The game features a fascinating world that’s full to the brim with encounters and happenings that help players craft a story of their own as they traverse through the vast Nordic lands.
One of the most striking aspects of Skyrim is the Dragons. These creatures elevate the game’s entire experience, which has led to many players labeling the game simply as a “dragon-killing power fantasy.” However, according to Bethesda’s creative director Todd Howard, Skyrim is a game more than just about dragons; it features a theme most gamers can’t even comprehend!

Well, politics isn’t the first thing we think about when we think about Bethesda’s long-running Elder Scrolls franchise. However, that’s unless you’re Todd Howard.

Bethesda Softworks’ CEO Todd Howard is riding high on the success of the series Fallout. Based on the games of the same name, the Amazon Prime Video series was set in the same universe and was developed as an original story. The show stars Ella Purnell as Lucy, a Vault-dweller who goes to the post-apocalyptic surface in search of her father.
The show was regarded as a great adaptation of the games. Despite not particularly based on any of the games, the show had enough lore to make it part of the same universe and hence had multiple Easter Eggs for the fans. One scene that Howard insisted on keeping in the show was a scene where Lucy gets out of the Vault, which is in every game.

Among all of gaming, the Fallout series holds a special place in the heart of the gaming community. Its post-apocalyptic world has captured the community’s attention with intricate storytelling, engaging world-building, and moral choices.
The two titles that stand heads and shoulders above the rest are Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. Both games offer players unique and innovative perspectives on the wasteland and its survivors. Josh Sawyer, Director of New Vegas, was also close to being part of Fallout 3 but lost the opportunity.

There’s no doubt that Bethesda’s Fallout franchise is in its Renaissance era at the moment. The franchise was propelled back into the limelight with a massively successful TV show, and Bethesda is doing everything it can to pull players, both old and new, to the wasteland, especially in Fallout 4.
Fallout 4 is by far the most crucial title in the series, and it does a lot of things correctly that other Fallout games struggle with. The game’s storyline is more compelling than Fallout 3, makes mods easily accessible, and even allows console players to mod the game. That’s not all; the game features one of the questing systems that’s been directly borrowed from The Elder Scroll V: Skyrim.

The game is going to give chills in your bones when you hunt (or get hunted by) wild creatures like Bigfoot, Mothman, and Loch Ness Monster.

Peter Dinklage became a force to be reckoned with at the Emmys during his tenure as Tyrion Lannister in HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” with the actor winning four wins from eight nominations. The cast of “Game of Thrones” was so good, however, that many of them are still Emmys forces even after the show ended and they’ve moved on to different projects. Let’s take a look at the “Game of Thrones” alumni who could compete at this year’s Emmys.

Among the many challenges that Jonathan Nolan faced when adapting Bethesda’s popular Fallout video game into a television series were narrowing the massive scope of the story — and finding the perfect people to tell it through.
Unlike other video games that have gotten a live-action adaptation, Fallout is a role playing game that requires the player to make choices that may alter the course of the story. It was creators and showrunners Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet who decided on an ensemble, that way every viewer could see themselves in someone on screen.
Enter Ella Purnell as the goodie-two-shoes vault dweller Lucy MacLean, Aaron Moten as the morally ambiguous Maximus, and Walton Goggins as the chaotic evil Ghoul. While all three of these actors faced challenges, Moten faced the especially tedious task of always toeing a line between the angel and the devil on his shoulders.

Arcane may be ending with its second season, but there is a silver lining for fans. That’s because the series’ co-creator revealed that more new League of Legends animated series will be made in partnership with Fortiche.
Speaking to Variety, Arcane co-creator Christian Linke said that there are still “many stories to tell” in the world of League of Legends and that Riot Games and Fortiche Productions will continue to tell them.

If you loved exploring the vast, magical lands of Skyrim and other Bethesda RPGs, get ready for something similarly epic. Nate Purkeypile, a former developer on multiple Bethesda games including Skyrim, is cooking up something truly unique with his new project, The Axis Unseen.
This game features an enemy that stands at a jaw-dropping 846 feet. But that’s just the beginning of this heavy-metal-inspired horror game.
The 846-Foot-Tall Enemy in the Axis Unseen
The Axis Unseen has some really unique horror art direction.
The Axis Unseen features one of the biggest enemies ever seen in gaming, a staggering 846 feet tall. No footage of this enemy has been shared so far, but it’ll be interesting to see how it looks in-game.
My current biggest creature is 846 feet tall
Or as tall as 141 people
Or as tall as a 60 story building
You have a bow. It'll be fine. pic.twitter.com...

Among some of the most desired and requested sequels in the gaming landscape, there’s no doubt that one game that sits high on many gamers’ wish lists is Fallout: New Vegas 2. Obsidian Entertainment’s approach with the IP is often said to be the most influential one in the post-apocalyptic RPG series.
Although we’ve been hearing rumors and possibilities of a sequel for ages, a few years ago, Todd Howard himself squashed all such possibilities. However, considering the massive influx the Fallout franchise is enjoying due to the success of the TV series, it’s time for Bethesda to finally give us a proper game after the disaster of Fallout 76.

Walton Goggins may be at the top of everyone’s minds for his recent turn as The Ghoul on Fallout, but the actor who also dazzles as Uncle Baby Billy on HBO‘s comedy The Righteous Gemstones is joining another big show as he features in the Season 3 ensemble for Mike White‘s The White Lotus. TV Insider caught up with the actor at the inaugural Gotham TV Awards on June 4, where he addressed his role, but couldn’t say much about specifics. “It really is the experience of a lifetime, isn’t it?” Goggins marvels. “I’ve been very fortunate over the course of my career to work with a lot of writer-directors that I look up to and have informed who I want to become as an artist,” he adds. (Credit: Emma McIntyre/Getty Images) When it comes to Mike White, Goggins says the creative is “high on that list.

Skyrim has received more than 200 Game of the Year awards ever since its initial release in 2011. It has transitioned into a cultural phenomenon and has transcended beyond gaming. More than 60 million people have played Skyrim, and it is still getting new players every year.

Skyrim’s open fantasy world is full of giants, elves, dragons, potions, spells, swords, and spears. When it first came out, it was looked upon as the nerdiest game on the market, which it still is; nevertheless, it soon became a criterion for the video game industry and has been re-released on every platform and console imaginable, which its predecessor, Morrowind, failed to do.

Avowed, the highly anticipated spiritual successor to the Elder Scrolls games is almost here. Thanks to the recent Xbox showcase, we got better glimpses into the gameplay, some combat, dialogue and Npc interaction, and more.
However, it looks like a lot more exciting features were left out from the reveal than we initially thought. If you were on the fence about the game until now, these key aspects finally convince you to make the plunge.
Avowed Could Outdo Bethesda’s Games with These Features
Avowed could leave an unmistakable impact on the RPG genre.
Bethesda holds the crown for having some of the best and most immersive first-person open-world RPG games, despite these titles being over a decade ago.
Fallout is known as Bethesda’s IP, but the maker of Avowed, Obsidian Entertainment, has a very deep history with the franchise and made New Vegas.

X-men '97 Scores TCA Nomination For Outstanding New Program Alongside Shogun, Ripley & Baby Reindeer
The Television Critics Association announced their picks for the best shows of the 2023-2024 TV season on Monday, and in a pleasantly surprising development, Marvel Studios' recent Disney+ series, X-Men '97, picked up two significant nominations.
The animated revival scored nominations for Outstanding New Program and Outstanding Achievement in Family Programming.
Though X-Men '97 proved to be a big hit with fans and critics alike, it's rare that an animated series - and a superhero animated series at that - would receive any TCA recognition, especially outside of the Children's Programming category.
What are the mutant heroes' chances of picking up the win? Well, the show is up against some heavy hitters such as Shōgun, Baby Reindeer and Ripley, so, fittingly, they are the underdogs here.
Former showrunner Beau DeMayo shared the following post in response to the news.

Beau DeMayo’s relationship with X-Men ’97 has certainly been an interesting one. Even though the writer and creator was heavily involved in making the series as good as it is, he was fired by Marvel Studios ahead of its premiere. Despite this, he has been very vocal in interviews and on social media about the series in the best ways possible.

He has revealed behind-the-scenes information to fans, mentioned the intentions behind certain decisions in the show, and even talked about the next season. Even though he was fired from the series, he continued to treat it as the passion project that it was for him.
Knowing this, it is not surprising that he would comment when the show hits a serious achievement in the world of Hollywood.

There are several exciting things the update will add, but the standout is the ability to play as the Ghoul, which was a fan favorite due to Walton Goggins’ performance. While fans are excited, there are several disadvantages that may not make the experience as good as they are hoping.

Few titles in the gaming industry carry the same legacy as Fallout. With its rich narrative, immersive post-apocalyptic world, and the freedom to write your destiny. The Fallout series has garnered a lot of dedicated fanbase over the years.
However, when it comes to the Fallout franchise, there’s one title that stands out as a point of discussion among fans, Fallout: New Vegas. It was a commercial success but it tempered with the established formula of the series. Even Todd Howard doesn’t want to repeat the same mistake.

For the second year in a row, three shows have topped the Television Critics Association nominations. “Baby Reindeer,” “Ripley” and “Shōgun” lead Monday’s nominations for the 40th annual awards with five bids each.
All three shows are up for Program of the Year, a category dominated by FX and Netflix. The former fielded three nominees with “Shōgun” “The Bear” and “Reservation Dogs,” while the latter is repped by “Baby Reindeer” and “Ripley.” Max’s “Hacks” is the sole non-fx and non-Netflix nominee.
Last year, “Succession,” “The Last of Us” and “The Bear” scored five nominations apiece. “Succession” and “The Bear” wound up with two wins each, with the former taking Program of the Year, but “The Last of Us” went 0-5.
After expanding to eight slots per category in 2021, TCA has reverted to six slots. No reason was given.
More curious, however, is the unprecedented double-dipping by three shows.

Prime Video’s Fallout came as a surprise for many, with new viewers not expecting this bizarre tale of violence to captivate them so much, and Og fans not even hoping for a truly faithful TV adaptation of their favorite game franchise. But Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet did it and passed all the tests with flying colors — and they don’t intend to stop now.
They have big plans for Season 2.
Fallout Season 2 to Introduce Numerous Factions
The Fallout universe is vast and impossible to cover in just one season, so while Prime Video’s TV did tackle quite a few important issues, they still have hundreds more to deal with. The Wasteland factions were one of the least elaborated aspects of Season 1, but the showrunners intend to fix this “oversight” in the next installment.

While many fans of Eric Kripke’s writing are now enjoying The Boys, as the show is about to release its fourth season, there is another group of fans, still longing for the return of The CW hit Supernatural. Even more so, they wish to see Kripke take back the creative control over the revival, leading the Winchester brothers to more adventures.
The Boys fans, on the other hand, have an opposite reaction to the idea of the show lasting for many more seasons, instead of ending at 5, like Kripke used to promise before. However, there isn’t much to fear right now. The creator doesn’t truly believe any similar show could repeat Supernatural’s success today.
Is Supernatural Season 16 in the Works?
While fans believe they have seen many different hints and clues pointing to the revival of the series, there is no official confirmation of this happening.

When Todd Howard, the mastermind behind Bethesda’s greatest hits, set out to create Starfield, he had a vision – steer clear of the usual sci-fi clichés.
In an interview, he explained how he wanted Starfield to stand apart from the polished, futuristic aesthetic typical of many sci-fi franchises, particularly Star Trek. Howard aimed to build a universe that felt lived-in and practical, very different from the sleek, pristine environments often seen in space operas.
The Difference Between Fallout and Starfield’s Aesthetic
Starfield’s Shattered Space expansion launches later this year.
Fallout is a goldmine of sci-fi tropes. Mutants roam the wasteland, survivors are camped up in underground vaults, and resources are very scarce. These elements create a gritty, harsh world that’s both captivating and familiar to fans of the genre. For Fallout 3 and 4, Howard and his team crafted a universe rich with history and detail, where every corner...

When it comes to the realm of open-world games, few studios compete against a mammoth like Bethesda. The makers of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and the Fallout games went through several concepts and brainstorming sessions before coming up with industry-shaking ideas.
However, Bethesda’s executive producer, Todd Howard, has never been silent about these processes. With an all-too-familiar charm and transparency, he has spoken about how a game as large as Skyrim can often distract players from the main quest, just like a creative process that may distract developers from building a finished product.

While not a large settlement by any measure, Novac has one of the most memorable town features in Fallout: New Vegas — the giant dinosaur statue that’s used as a vantage point by the defenders. Just seeing the Dino’s head off in the distance would satisfy Og fans to no end, and it wouldn’t even be hard to pull off. Pretty please?

We can already picture Lucy being terrified and Cooper pranking her in his evil ways, using the place’s dark vibes. Let’s just hope that in the show, the Camp’s darkest secrets remain hidden from viewers.

Throughout all episodes of Fallout Season 1, we’re learning more about Cooper Howard and his life before the Great War through his flashbacks. Once a popular actor with a loving family, he lost everything after the bombs dropped — but even two centuries later, he still remained perfectly conscious, unlike all other ghouls.
What was the Ghoul’s secret? Why didn’t he lose his personality and forget his name like his less fortunate friends? How hasn’t he gone feral after well over 200 years?
Cooper Perfectly Adapted His Cowboy Persona
The apocalypse dramatically changed Cooper Howard’s career. From a famous (and infamous) actor, he turned into the most notorious and deranged bounty hunter in the Wasteland. Two centuries later, very few people remembered or knew his real name: for most, he was simply the Ghoul, the terrifying person that’s very good at killing.

Starfield’s upcoming expansion, Shattered Space, featured its announcement trailer in the Xbox Showcase broadcast on May 9, 2024. Despite the game’s mediocre reception among fans and critics, Bethesda will not give up on it anytime soon.
While there was no release date mentioned in the trailer, and it was only confirmed to be coming in 2024, the trailer has confirmed that Bethesda is seemingly pulling all the stops in a Hail Mary pass. While it isn’t known if the upcoming expansion will be enough to save the game’s declining player retention numbers, one thing is sure: it is a glimmer of hope for Xbox fans.
Starfield’s Shattered Space Expansion Looks Murky but in a Good Way
Starfield was supposed to be Microsoft’s answer to Sony’s big first party releases, granting Phil Spencer and company the elusive win that they desperately wanted. Because of this premise, the...

The Xbox Games Showcase is one of the biggest events of the gaming calendar, and after PlayStation’s State of Play and Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest, it presents the last big opportunity for gamers to see what’s in store for the following couple of years, at least until Gamescom in August.
Geoff Keighley (of Summer Game Fest fame) went public with his attempt at downplaying the hype around his own showcase this year, which was a first, and with the poor showing of PlayStation, many believe this points to a bumper year for the Xbox Games Showcase.
As with any other showcase, we’ve taken the time to try and figure out the most, least, and completely unlikely predictions for what we may see in the showcase!
Luke Addison – Gaming Lead Halo: Combat Evolved is already rumoured to appear at Xbox Games Showcase.
