History of The Three Stooges (Part IV: Wartime, Debuts, and a Decline - 1943-1945)
When the 1940s started, the world was at war, but America wasn't part of it... yet. Despite this, the Three Stooges were at work with the 1940 short, You Nazty Spy! and the 1941 sequel, I'll Never Heil Again, both shorts spoofing Nazi Germany. Of course, we all know what happened on December 7, 1941, and that led to America joining the Second World War. When the U.S. got involved, studios really got to work with wartime material. This was definitely true when it came to the cartoons. The Disney shorts, Looney Tunes, Tom and Jerry, and especially Popeye had many wartime cartoons out there following America's entry into WWII.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 17 Episode 6 Recap: Saddle Up and Settle Scores
Dallas should have been simple: horses, tequila, glam, and enough shade to keep the trip moving. Instead, “Saddle Up and Settle Scores” turns into a patience test for Cynthia Bailey, who spends most of the episode managing room complaints, glam excuses, Pinky’s defensive energy, and Kelli’s need to make every scene louder than it has to be.

Michael Movie Review
As arguably the greatest entertainer of all time and a landmark of 20th Century culture, Michael Jackson continues to inspire millions around the world. He had a share of big-screen outings too, beginning with The Wiz in 1978 and ending posthumously in 2009 with This Is It. Now we’re receiving a full-blown tribute simply titled Michael; it’s a biopic with many problems that overcome its entertainment factor.

Sutton insists she isn’t anyone’s minion while production cuts to Jennifer Tilly blinking like she just watched a magic trick go wrong.

The Valley Season 3 Episode 6 Recap: All Aboard!
The San Diego trip should be the episode’s big group reset, but The Valley doesn’t really do resets. It does awkward train rides, forced peace treaties, room fights, bad husband behavior, and people pretending they’re fine while clearly keeping a mental list of who wronged them and when. Episode 6, “All Aboard!,” sends the group to San Diego, but the real ride is watching everyone bring their baggage with them before the suitcases are even unpacked.
