Watch: BEEF on Netflix. For those enjoyed the Emmy-winning, rage-filled first season, you’re in luck! BEEF is back with an all-new plot and cast, this time including Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, and Charles Melton.

Watch: Rooster. A wholesome-ish show starring The Office’s Michael Scott, Ted Lasso’s Jamie Tartt, and Scrubs’ Perry Cox? Sign me up for 6 seasons and a movie! Rooster follows the messy relationship between an awkward novelist (Steve Carell) and his professor daughter (Charly Clive) on a college campus full of ego and dysfunction, supported by an eccentric crowd. It’s slightly cringe, sentimental, and unhinged, which means you’ll laugh and then feel a bit bad about it. The writing is sharp, the cast is game, and Robby Hoffman steals scenes in her brief appearances. If you want a replacement for Shrinking, Rooster might be worth a look! — Suhani

But the couple would go on to capture national attention for another, more shocking scandal before they ever made it down the aisle. What first appears as an open-and-shut case soon spirals into a chaotic saga that blurs the line between victim and perpetrator.

Read about a political drama at a New York food co-op may sound like the kind of dispute only Brooklyn could produce. Think contentious debates over tahini, permissions, and a peanut butter snack puff called Osem Bamba. Yet, it’s also a microcosm of the ideological divisions in the US over Israel after the war in Gaza. The New York Times breaks [...]
