While Amazon has had a successful year with its original programming, including acclaimed returning series “Transparent” and the debuts of “One Mississippi” and “Fleabag,” there’s one returning series that will send its audience back to the hazy summer days of the 1980s. The half-hour comedy-drama “Red Oaks” follows David Meyers (Craig Roberts), an aspiring filmmaker and Nyu undergraduate who spends his summers working as a tennis pro at the prestigious Red Oaks Country Club. At the end of last season, his parents (Jennifer Grey and Richard Kind) are separating, he broke up with his girlfriend Karen (Gage Golightly), and has fallen for Skye (Alexandra Socha), the daughter of Getty (Paul Reiser), the country club’s president. Watch the trailer for the second season below.

There will be no body swaps in “Red Oaks” Season 2, but fans of ’80s genre staples can get excited for a “bachelor party road trip.”
The Amazon comedy made a few waves in its first season when Richard Kind and Craig Roberts’ characters swapped bodies for an episode, delightfully recreating one of cinema’s favorite story premises during the Reagan era (and earning the episode a spot on IndieWire’s Best Episodes of 2015 list in the process). So it should come as no surprise who, among the stellar group of producers on the series — from David Gordon Green to Greg Jacobs — pitched the idea for a body swap episode.
“It was [executive producer Steven] Soderbergh’s idea,” Jacobs said, who has worked as Soderbergh’s producer and assistant director for nearly two decades. “We learned you could still get the heart and the emotion even with the zany antics.”

The words ‘Rihanna’ and ‘low-profile’ aren’t ones that tend to walk about hand in hand but 2012 has seen a slight shift in the all-conquering crotch-gyrating force from Barbados. After riding high off the back of We Found Love’s global success (number one in twenty countries is hard to argue with), oodles of airplay and performances on every prime-time TV show going, Rihanna’s been suprisingly low-key musically in the last few months. Sure there was the whole white powder twitter pictures (definitely not sherbet dib dab) and the release of her first feature film Battleship, not playing the token hot girl as expected but instead the token armed forces femme-grunt as if they’re the only two kinds of women in existence, but on the whole Rihanna’s reign on the musical media is at a low.

Much like Katy Perry's "Firework" or even (to some extent) Ke$ha's "We R Who We R," Pink's brand-new "F****** Perfect" video is an outreach to the outcasts, an extended hand to those on the fringes of society, one that comes with an empowering — and all-too-often unheard — message of hope. But unlike either Perry or Ke$ha's glossy clips, Pink isn't afraid to get gritty. Or graphic. And therein lies its power.
In "Perfect," we follow the cycle of abuse that envelops a young girl (played by Tina Majorino) starting at an early age (she is bullied on a playground and acts out), then continues on through adolescence (her mother forces her to conform) and, of course, into high school,...

I'm starting to feel like a broken record. There are only so many times you can praise a series before you become a bore, so from here on forward, let's assume this: Parks and Recreation is awesome and hilarious. Write it down in your book of facts, write it on a Post-It and stick it to your bathroom mirror to remind yourself every day, and begin using the show's title as a replacement for the word combination "awesome and hilarious" (example: "I saw a man get kicked in his bean bag today; it was Parks and Recreation.") If people look at you weird,...
