One former partner in Chip Gaines‘ Magnolia Real Estate Company says the Fixer Upper star ended their years-long friendship after the Hgtv show became successful.
“There was a sense of betrayal and frustration,” John Lewis tells People. “Once I had sold him my interest in the company and his show began to flourish, I never heard from him again.”
The comments come nearly a week after Lewis and Richard Clark filed a $1 million lawsuit against Gaines, 42, and others in Waco, Texas, claiming that the TV star bought them out of the real estate company without telling them that he had...

Documentary is an infinite form, but — at the risk of being terribly reductive — most documentary subjects can be divided into one of two groups: People who are too exceptional to resist, and people who are too ordinary to ignore. The former hinges on interest, the latter on empathy. A black teenager in a run-down suburb of St. Louis, Daje Shelton not only falls into that second category, her story defines why we need it.
Seventeen years old and already convinced that she’s already doomed to a dead end, Daje is a student who’s teetering on the edge of becoming a statistic; she’s growing up in the state that kicks more black kids out of school than any other, and she can’t help but feel the inertia of that fact. “For Ahkeem” lucidly captures that feeling as well as any non-fiction film since “Hoop Dreams,” even if...

No matter where you go, there you are.
Yep, that's an annoying phrase, but it still holds true as as we take a bit of a time jump at the beginning of Halt and Catch Fire Season 3 Episode 1.
It's 1986 and Mutiny has been successfully ensconced in what will become a very busy Silicon Valley for about six months.
Watch Halt and Catch Fire Season 3 Episode 1 Online
There is a lot of room in the new digs, and a lot of new faces. Mutiny's customer base has expanded and there's a celebration for 100,000 users, a mainframe computer, and the expansion of John Bosworth's family. He has a new grandson.
But even as well as everything is going, there are still problems, and many followed them to California. Not that you can tell they're in California, just like it's not blatantly obvious the show takes place in 1986.
The subtleties of place and...

There's a good chance those reading this article can't remember a Dec. 31 without Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. Even if you don't watch the annual, year-end special at home, it's hard to escape. It's on in bars. It's on at parties. And sometimes people will actually turn on the TV just to watch the Times Square countdown. It's that well-integrated into the holiday. Dick Clark hosted the show from 1975 to 2004. After suffering a stroke in late 2004, Clark returned to the special in 2006, and appeared in every subsequent New Year's Eve celebration until his death in April 2012. Now hosted by Ryan Seacrest,...
