Tevin Davis has been doing interviews following his time on Survivor 46.
It was during a chaotic Tribal Council that Tevin saw his game end.
Tevin said he felt safe heading into the vote. He had heard his name mentioned before but was sticking to the plan his alliance members shared with him.
As a reminder, Tevin was voted out on an 8-2 vote. The only people who didn’t vote for him were himself and Hunter McKnight.
But Hunter didn’t warn Tevin about the danger that was coming at the Tribal Council, even though Q Burdette told Hunter that the plans had shifted.
Should Hunter have done more to save the person he was working with as a duo? Or was that six-person alliance doomed from the start?

This article contains spoilers about the 2024 Broadway production of “An Enemy of the People.”
There will likely be few scenes this Broadway season more harrowing than the climax of Sam Gold’s “An Enemy of the People,” in which a town hall meeting called by Dr. Thomas Stockmann devolves into verbal and physical assault. In the aftermath of the scene’s brutality against the Norwegian doctor, who warns his community that their waters are contaminated, actor Jeremy Strong emerges from a crouched position on the stage floor in the Circle in the Square Theatre, where he has huddled and shrunk his body down to withstand a torrent of blows. It is a visceral moment of live theatre, one that the actor commits to wholeheartedly and that the Tony Awards should nominate.
What leads up to that frightening display of ignorance and animus is made all the richer by Strong’s performance.

Over the years, a few Survivor contestants have captivated the imaginations of fans around the world. These contestants love talking about their experiences on the show, dishing the dirt about what really happens behind the scenes. Kelly Wentworth is one of Survivor’s most beloved veterans, a reality star who has appeared in several seasons of the iconic competition show. Not only has Wentworth been open about her own experience with the show, but she has talked about longtime Survivor host Jeff Probst as well – and in a recent podcast conversation with Tyson Apostol, Wentworth discussed how Probst will “freak out” if something isn’t going exactly according to plan.

In the latest episode of Jeff Probst‘s “On Fire with Jeff Probst” podcast, the long-time “Survivor” host confesses that the CBS reality TV show is purposefully designed to be “seen through the eyes of kids.” The conversation came at the end of the podcast when a fan accused him of making the show only for himself.
“I don’t think he’s wrong in that yes, on some level, I am making ‘Survivor’ for me,” Probst readily admitted, as reported by Dalton Ross (EW). He then added, “But I will say that my version of the show, for me, is seen through the eyes of kids. So that is my point of view.”

Probst later added, “Everybody knows that works with me, I say, ‘Imagine a 7-year-old at home imagining they’re the one making fire, they’re the one who found an idol.

Monte Taylor finished in second place on Big Brother 24. Pic credit: CBS
Big Brother 24 runner-up Monte Taylor was pretty shocked by the outcome on finale night.
After winning the final Head of Household Competition, Monte thought that he was about to win the 750,000 when he chose to send Matthew Turner to the BB24 jury.
Unfortunately for Monte, it was Turner who ended up being the only person to vote for him to be the Big Brother 24 winner.
When Julie Chen Moonves read off the votes, it was Taylor Hale who won Big Brother 24. The 8-1 vote total made it seem like a really one-sided season of the show.
Later, Taylor was also named America’s Favorite Houseguest, winning a close vote against two other fan-favorites from the season.
“I had no doubt in my mind that I would be coming out on top after the vote,” Monte told Entertainment Weekly after the season finale aired.

Sixth place is where Michael Bruner finished on Big Brother 24. Pic credit: CBS
Michael Bruner is doing his exit interviews now, following his eviction from the Big Brother house.
It was a dramatic ending to his run in the game, which began with him becoming the new Veto King of the reality competition show.
Michael seemed almost unstoppable, so when the other houseguests finally had a chance to take him out, that’s exactly what they did.
Now, Michael becomes a member of the BB24 jury, where he will vote for the winner of Big Brother 24 on finale night.
There should also be some interesting episode segments coming up soon where Big Brother fans get to see the reactions of the other jury members when Michael walks in the front door.
But first, he has a lot of thoughts to share about how he played the game and what went wrong this summer.

The Amazing Race 34 released its cast list, and there are a lot of fun duos that fans will get to watch this fall on CBS.
It was revealed in June that a new group of competitors had begun their race around the world, but we only had rumors to go off of when it came to the names of the cast members.
As expected, the official cast list for Amazing Race 34 includes a Big Brother showmance that seems geared toward doing well on the reality competition show.
Derek Xiao and Claire Rehfuss from Big Brother 23 started a relationship while they were both living in the jury house, and then they took that right into dating in the real world when the season ended.

Bryan Cranston won four Emmys for his performance in “Breaking Bad” as Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher with inoperable lung cancer who becomes increasingly ruthless when he makes and sells meth to help secure his family’s future. Now Cranston is breaking bad in a different way in his new limited series “Your Honor,” which premiered Dec. 6 on Showtime.
This time around, he plays Michael Desiato, a prominent New Orleans judge who goes to extreme lengths to protect his teenage son Adam (Hunter Doohan) after the boy is involved in a hit-and-run accident. Though he takes Adam to the police station so the boy can confess, Michael changes his tune when he discovers Adam has killed the son of the “head of the most vicious crime family in the history of the city.”

The rules are simple. If you find fire tokens on the Edge of Extinction, you can buy advantages in the all-important “Survivor” return challenge. Unfortunately for Yul Kwon, he was the only voted-out player who didn’t get the opportunity to acquire any island currency, and people are understandably bummed. (Read our episode recap here.)
As this is the first season ever to incorporate fire tokens, there are obviously kinks in the system that need to be worked out for future installments. Notably, why does making it further in the game, as Yul did, essentially punish him from earning an advantage in the return challenge? Just last week there was a fire token goose chase in which four wooden coins were hidden up on the cliff. That meant double eliminees Parvati Shallow and Sandra Diaz-Twine (had she not quit) had a golden opportunity to find fire tokens alongside the people...

Rob Mariano has broken his silence on the drama that’s unfolded ahead of the “Survivor: Winners at War” debut. Monday night at the Season 40 red carpet premiere at ArcLight Hollywood, moderator Dalton Ross (EW) asked Boston Rob about Sandra Diaz-Twine‘s comment that she felt “betrayed” in regards to him failing to mention he’d appear in the new season. For the record, Sandra did inform him of her plans to compete in “Winners at War” when they lived together for 36 days in “Island of the Idols,” but Rob kept mum about returning with his wife Amber Mariano. “I come from the old school mentality that the game starts when Jeff says go,” Rob explained in his defense.

Refresh for updates Tom Bergeron, the longtime host of ABC’s Dancing With The Stars, isn’t happy with the booking of Sean Spicer, Donald Trump’s former White House press secretary, as a contestant for the upcoming season.
In a tweet today following the casting announcement, Bergeron wrote that he had hoped the upcoming 28 season “would be a joyful respite from our exhausting political climate and free of inevitably divisive bookings from Any party affiliations.”
In fact, Bergeron said he left a lunch with the show’s new executive producer (that would be Andrew Llinares) a few months ago and thought they were in agreement.
“Subsequently (and rather obviously),” Bergeron continued, “a decision was made to, as we often say in Hollywood, ‘go in a different direction.”
Bergeron also stopped by for a promotional appearance on SiriusXM to discuss the show with host Dalton Ross, reiterating his tweet.

Jack Matthews has been booted from the Big Brother house, and now faces a larger jury – the world.
Matthews was sent packing from the house during Thursday’s live eviction, but now is branded by the derogatory and racist remarks he made about his fellow guests on the show’s 24/7 live feed. The remarks have drawn outrage from some sections of social media, although Matthews was also defended in some quarters.
The target of many of the remarks was Kemi Fakunle, a black contestant and the third eviction from the summer season. Matthew was confronted during his exit interview about remarks where he labeled her as a “bitch” and “dogshit.”
“I don’t think there was any personal vendetta behind saying that. My statements were playful in a group of people,” Matthews said. “I do apologize for what I said, and that’s very sincere. I think Kemi was, and is,...

The world of The Walking Dead is about to get a whole lot bigger. Following the conclusion of Rick Grimes' final episode on the series, AMC announced that they are developing original films set in The Walking Dead universe, with the first movie expected to start production next year. [Spoiler warning if you haven't watched episode 9.05.]
If you watched episode 9.05 of The Walking Dead, then you know that although Andrew Lincoln appeared in his final episode of The Walking Dead TV series, Rick Grimes survived the explosion at the bridge and has been whisked away in a helicopter to an unknown destination (although readers of Robert Kirkman's comic book series might have a good idea of where he's headed.)
With a lot going on already at Alexandria and the Hilltop in the series' new time jump storyline, Rick's adventure will continue to be told in a planned trilogy of AMC Studios Original Films written by Scott M. Gimple.

David Tennant was among the millions who caught Jodie Whittaker’s first full Doctor Who episode last night, and apparently being an ex-Doctor and knowing the behind-the-cameras tricks didn’t provide any emotional distance.
“It’s very exciting,” Tennant tells SiriusXM hosts Jessica Shaw and Dalton Ross (listen above). “It’s very exciting as a fan, as someone who grew up watching Doctor Who.” Five minutes into the episode, Tenant said, he’d all but forgotten his friendships with Whittaker and exec producer Chris Chibnall and must got caught up in the fun of the show.
Tennant was at New York Comic Con over the weekend, and though he laments the fact that he can’t wander around unnoticed, he sees the annual NYC gathering as a victory of sorts.
“I grew up as a fan of comic books,” he says, adding, “this is the victory, the geek has inherited the earth.

Teddy Perkins is alive at the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards. The viral character played by Donald Glover in the episode of the same name during “Atlanta” season 2 could be seen in the audience as the category for outstanding comedy actor was announced. Glover was nominated in the category but lost to Bill Hader, who was honored for his lead role in HBO’s “Barry.”
The episode “Teddy Perkins” aired April 5 and became not just a favorite among “Atlanta” fans but also one of the most critically-acclaimed episodes of television this year. The series earned filmmaker Hiro Murai a nomination for outstanding director, but he lost to Amy Sherman-Palladino for “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.”
While it’s unknown at this time if it was actually Donald Glover under the Perkins makeup at the Emmys, the look and clothing the person was wearing was clearly evoking Perkins’ appearing in the episode. Glover...

Survivor: Game Changers brings back 20 of Survivor‘s most memorable players for another chance at the million dollar prize and the title of “sole survivor.”
It’s not the first time the hit CBS competition series has invited some of its all-star players to play television’s hardest game. But there’s favorite player fans won’t see in the mix: “Boston Rob” Mariano.
The father of four, who is married to fellow Survivor alum Amber Brkich, has competed four separate times — including 2011’s Survivor: Redemption Island, which he won. But that’s likely the last time Mariano will be throwing on his buff.

Will Daniel Radcliffe cast a spell on audiences once again? The answer is a tad complicated. Even so, the 27-year-old boy who lived actor has only fond memories of playing the titular character in eight Harry Potter films. "People come up to me and talk about what an important figure I was in their childhood or what an importance place the films had in their family's life," Radcliffe told EW Morning Live's Dalton Ross and Jessica Shaw on SiriusXM. "I'm lucky to be associated with something that people absolutely love." "I'm always going to be grateful for Potter," the Imperium actor continued.

What a ride. "Survivor: Kaôh Rōng," aka Season 32 -- and the second to carry the "Brains, Brawn, and Beauty" theme -- ended last night with a dramatic two hour finale and one-hour reunion show. Who won the $1 million and title of Sole Survivor? Mark the Chicken! Ok, maybe not, but he earned it. He was even there at Final Tribal on Tai Trang's lap.

The Walking Dead's sixth season kicked off with the most walkers in any single episode, but when the show returns on Sunday, that previous record of around 300 zombies will be greatly surpassed by the legion of living dead invading Alexandria. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, executive producer and special effects makeup guru Greg Nicotero discussed directing the walker-packed mid-season six premiere.
Speaking with EW's Dalton Ross, Nicotero talked about how Episode 609, aka "No Way Out", is an "unprecedented" entry in the series:
"And episode 9, basically, takes all of these various storylines and slams everything together in an epic man against the undead battle that is unprecedented in the history of The Walking Dead."
Nicotero went on to discuss how the mid-season six premiere will feature the highest number of walkers and kills in the show's history:

When viewers last saw AMC's The Walking Dead, the situation was dire and on the verge of violence. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Andrew Lincoln discussed the show's upcoming dark turn, Rick's changing leadership style, and more.
Speaking with EW's Dalton Ross, Lincoln talked about his love for the "back eight" episodes of The Walking Dead Season 6:
"I will say that five of my favorite episodes in a long time — and very different episodes — are in this back eight."
Lincoln also touched on what Episode 609, "No Way Out", has in store for Rick Grimes and company:
"[Showrunner Scott M. Gimple] and the writers have done a very smart thing in that they’ve thrown a lot of propositions and questions and challenges to Rick and the family and the community, and you will quickly realize they are answered in a very shocking, brilliant, terrifying, epic way.

Adding to the anticipation, Morgan recently shared his thoughts on gearing up to play the iconic character in an interview with Entertainment Weekly Radio.

"Survivor" Season 31 (yes, can you believe it?) is now airing, and "Survivor: Second Chance" is one of the best competitions CBS has ever aired. Maybe it's the returning players, all "losers" hungry for a win, or the many twists that have only improved the gameplay and have yet to feel like desperate gimmicks. It's rare to have so many players pushing to win, with very different strategies, and we can't wait to see who ends up the sole survivor of "Survivor: Cambodia."
Who will it be?
Well, the edits certainly give us some hints. For example, we could've told you it wouldn't be Kelly Wiglesworth even before she was eliminated in Episode 9, since she had almost no screen time, including confessionals. Spencer Bledsoe is still the confessional king. The producers have him narrating the season, like this is his story and everyone else is a supporting player. Then again,...

EW's Dalton Ross also caught up with Campbell and executive producer/co-writer/series premiere director Sam Raimi to discuss the details of the Deadite-dicing series. Raimi talked about Ash once again inadvertently bringing undead demons into our world:
"He’s the only one stupid enough to really tamper with those spirits. And he does. But he’s also still a really good monster fighter."
Campbell touched upon the type of tone viewers can expect from Ash vs Evil Dead:

Though it will take place in the early days of the zombie uprising, Fear The Walking Dead will focus on the living more than the dead, and Robert Kirkman recently discussed the show's core characters, including several who are shown in new photos.
Speaking with Entertainment Weekly's Dalton Ross, Kirkman discussed the background of Madison, the series' widowed mother of two (Kim Dickens):
"Madison is a character whose husband died. And she’s been raising her kids on her own, so she’s a character that has experienced a very abrupt change to her life that she has had to adapt to."
Kirkman also talked about Madison's kids, Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) and Nick (Frank Dillane), who are complete opposites:
"Alicia is your atypical teenage girl. She excels at school. She’s on her way to college... She’s kind of the model student and the model child.

Rick, Carl, Michonne, Daryl, and the rest of the group may have found a moment of peace within the walls of the Alexandria Safe Zone, but fans of AMC's The Walking Dead know that with the season finale just five episodes away, there will likely be plenty of walker and human-fueled mayhem before this season takes its bow (especially with the fiendish folks who destroyed Noah's hometown still on the prowl). No matter what happens in this season's finale, though, it's just been guaranteed that there will be a little more to enjoy, as the final season five episode's runtime has officially been extended to 90 minutes.
TheWalkingDead.com recently made the extended runtime statement via Twitter, confirming EW writer Dalton Ross' initial announcement. Though the title and synopsis for the finale have yet to be revealed, it is known that Greg Nicotero directed the episode, which will air on Sunday,...

The Walking Dead traffics in sudden death, constantly reminding fans they’re unafraid to kill off beloved characters, as they did, once again, in Sunday night’s mid-season opener. We chatted with executive producer Gale Anne Hurd at the Society of Camera Operators Lifetime Achievement Awards in Los Angeles about the latter half of season five, which showrunner Scott Gimple teased as being darker and weirder than ever. Indeed, the premiere episode took a more abstract, existential turn — EW’s Dalton Ross called it more of a “poem” than an episode of TV. It’s a move that the show’s producers are well-aware fans would either love or hate. “[That’s] because it has a different style than we’ve ever seen in The Walking Dead, which is great five seasons in,” Hurd said. “We can really step back and say, for this episode and the story we’re telling and...

Sons of Anarchy rode out on top: Tuesday's seventh season and series finale was seen by 6.4 million viewers -- an all-time record for the show, just barely edging out the seventh season premiere. Among adults 18-49, the 113-minute episode had a big 3.3 rating. That nearly tied CBS' top-rated annual presentation of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show (somehow we suspect the Samcro guys would be amused by that). EW's coverage of the symbolism-soaked and divisive finale is legion: There's Mandi Bierly's recap, Dalton Ross' take, an executive producer interview and a look at the season's key moments.

Sunday night's fourth episode of the season delivered 14.5 million viewers and an incredible 7.6 rating among adults 18-49. By comparison, Snf had about 17 million viewers and a 6.1 in the demo during a 20-point blowout win for the Steelers (these live ratings will change in the more accurate nationals, but the demo number is unlikely surpass Twd).

The Walking Dead companion series pilot is a go.
EW can exclusively report that AMC has officially ordered a pilot set in the same zombie-plagued universe as TV’s top-rated drama series. The as-yet-untitled project will go into production later this year, and will be set in a different location than the original series and star a new cast of characters. (Since the characters are different, the series not technically a “spinoff.”)
The Walking Dead executive producers Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd and David Alpert are all on board for the new project. Dave Erickson (Sons of Anarchy) was tapped as showrunner back in March.

Guardians of the Galaxy opened Friday, August 1, and many young fans were puzzled by the film’s odd post-credits sequence.
Spoiler Alert!
Marvel has a habit of featuring mid-credit or post-credit scenes that give hints as to what is to come in the Marvel cannon. For example, The Avengers (2012) introduced the villain Thanos in a mid-credits sequence. Thanos, of course, ended up being a somewhat prominent dark presence in Guardians of the Galaxy (2014). Similarly, the post-credits sequence of Thor: The Dark World (2013) introduced the character of the Collector (Benicio Del Toro), who also plays a part in Guardians of the Galaxy. However, fans hoping for a look at Marvel’s next big screen film, The Avengers: Age of Ultron were left scratching their heads after the post-credits scene in Guardians of the Galaxy.
