Month: July 2022

There’s been a bit of an uptick in fans intruding on the privacy of artists by trespassing on their properties. It was just a few months ago that DaBaby shot a man for invading his North Carolina home and the rapper was able to avoid charges in that case. More recently, Taylor Swift had a man show up uninvited at her Manhattan home, but luckily they did not get in contact with the singer and were later arrested. The latest example now involves Drake thanks to an incident that occurred at his $70 million Los Angeles mansion last week.

According to TMZ, police officers were called to Drake’s mansion on July 15 after one of the property’s employees saw someone near the rapper’s pool house. The individual ended up being a 23-year-old man, and when the LAPD arrived on the scene, they quickly questioned him. The man claimed that Drake was his father and that he was just waiting for the rapper to come home.

The father-son claim is of course false, being that Drake’s actual son, Adonis, is 19 years younger than the trespasser. Additionally, 35-year-old Drake probably didn’t father a child 23 years ago, when he was 12. With that being said, the LAPD officers were not sold on the 23-year-old’s story, and as a result, he was arrested and charged with misdemeanor trespassing.

Thankfully, Drake was not home at the time of the incident.

The Better Call Saul Lie Detector Test is a weekly recap of the major events of the final season, separated out by their apparent truthfulness at the time. This is not one of those recaps that gets into granular detail about things. It will miss the occasional callback or foreshadowing. But it will be fun. Sometimes, that’s what’s important.

Season 6, Episode 9: “Fun and Games”

Everything is fine

The important thing here is that Kim was right. About all of it. About her and Jimmy being poison together, about their happiness being less important than the destruction they cause by being together, and about her leaving being the only solution. Jimmy sure as hell wasn’t going to fix anything. Look at him. Look at everything he touches. Look at how he starts fires — sometimes intentionally, sometimes through negligence — and then roller skates away and never really looks back. This had to be Kim all the way. And, in the end, it was.

I wonder when she knew. I wonder at what point she realized she needed to rip the band-aid off and end it all for good before they took the rest of the world down with them. You could see it on her face at the beginning when she was looking at the spot Howard died. Wheels were turning then, even if they were spinning, stuck in mud or snow or whatever slop her poor brain has turned into over the last few weeks. I think the thing that finally broke her was lying to Howard’s widow about the late-night cocaine of it all. It’s one thing to lie as part of a fun little ruse. It’s another thing to tell a grieving woman that her beloved husband was a secret cokehead because you need to cover up the fact that you saw a charming drug lord shoot him in your apartment for the crime of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. That’s some heavy business.

As was the scene in the apartment. That was… not fun. Riveting and powerful in ways that will stick with me a long, long time, sure, more so than some of the scenes where actual characters died. But not fun. There is a real chance — not a probability, no but a chance — that this is the last time we see Kim Wexler on the show, especially considering what we saw in that closing scene. Are you ready for that? Are you ready to deal with any of that? Because I sure as hell am not. It’s a good problem to have (“show is too good and I’m sad about it”), but it’s still a problem.

How good was that scene, though, even while it was gutting you? Yes, this was never going to end well. Yes, it’s a prequel of another series where Jimmy exists and she just kind of doesn’t. Yes, I was aware that all of this was going to be settled in these last few episodes. But none of that means I wanted it to happen or was ready for it or have the emotional tools at my disposal to process something like “I love you, too… but so what?” in anything resembling a timely manner. I’m writing it up now because that’s the job but I’ll be thinking about it for weeks. Again, heavy.

I think the thing I’m going to keep coming back to is that kiss in the parking garage after they both lied to Cheryl at Howard’s memorial. I think Jimmy hoped that kiss meant progress, that they had done the hardest part and could start the slow but steady work of moving past it together, as a team, the same way they had gotten into it. It wasn’t that, though. It was the other thing completely. It was Kim saying she was just done and the real slow and steady work was going to be rebuilding her life somewhere else, alone, for her sake and for his sake and for the sake of who knows how many other innocent people they’d end up ruining just by existing as a unit. No wonder she was sucking down that cigarette in about three drags.

All of which was kind of the problem. Jimmy just wanted to get past it all, to get things “back to normal,” whatever exactly that means. To roller skate away from another inferno he had a hand in starting. Kim saw there was no way she could do that. She saw there was no future for them or for her if she didn’t cut bait. So, the bags were packed and the tears were shed and everyone left everything a little more broken than where they found it.

Exit Kim Wexler. I hate it. It was wonderful television. But I hate it.

I am less worried about Kim Wexler now

Nope. I sure am not. I’m a little less worried that she’s going to be murdered by an assassin who was hired by one of the many criminals they have crossed. I’m a little more worried that Howard’s widow will hire an assassin to kill her, just because we all saw Cheryl’s eyes and face at that memorial. But that’s still a long shot. Probably. It would be wild if that’s what happens, though. Remember that I get credit for calling it if it does.

But… yeah. I’m still very worried about her. This has all been traumatizing in deep ways. Ways she can’t exactly talk about with a therapist or ever unsee and sure appeared to be haunting her when we watched her bang around for the first half of this episode. Things are not going to be easy or fun for her for the rest of her life, even if she remains physically safe from everything in her rear view.

It is still my position and hope (mostly hope) that she heads back to Nebraska and stumbles across Jimmy/Saul/Gene in that mall and they lock eyes and find happiness forever or even in that one single moment, but… yeah. I worry.

I would not watch a whole episode about Gus on vacation in Italy or France with his sommelier buddy

Three things are worth noting here and I think I can knock them out pretty quickly:

• Please imagine for one second having the confidence to roll out a five-minute scene — with only a few episodes of your show left — where one of your main characters just sits there and drinks a little wine and talks to the staff, and knowing you could use it to show your passionate audience a bunch of cool new insights into a character they’ve known for like a decade
• One of the things I took away from this is how sad Gus Fring must be, all the time, living this life where he only allows himself these fleeting moments of pleasure and then swallows them down and stuffs them away and returns to the discipline and order and top-shirt-button-buttoned existence he’s created for himself, just pushing away anything that doesn’t fit, even if it’s a sweet man he looks at with joy in his eyes while they discuss bottles of wine
• We all know how this works out for Gus because we’ve seen Breaking Bad, and he doesn’t, like, deserve a happy ending given the whole “murderous drug kingpin who just buried two people in a dirt hole inside his secret methamphetamine superlab,” but also, as I was watching this scene, I kind of wanted him to say eff it all and scoop up his sweet wine boy and head off to Europe to live on a vineyard under a fake name, like, for example, Lester Chardonnay

Also, and I suspect I’m the only person recapping Better Call Saul who is making the note, the actor who played the sommelier, Reed Diamond, played a lawyer named Damien Karp on the short-lived lawbros cable show Franklin & Bash. That show also featured a character named Ellen Swatello, who was played by… Rhea Seehorn. That’s right. Better Call Saul, one of the finest shows on television, in one of its most important final season episodes, staged a tiny Franklin & Bash reunion. This means nothing to anyone but me. I shouted a little.

We are in the future now

So… what do we think here? About that scene at the end? The one where Jimmy is full-on Saul Goodman, finally, complete with a dish of breakfast bars for the sex workers he wakes up next to and a commercial he’s not happy with and a fraudulent handicapped parking pass? Do we think this is it, that we’ve leaped a few months or years into the future, into a post-Kim world where the dude who once was sweet-but-troubled Jimmy is now just a shark, always swimming, always hunting, never pausing to feel things? Or was this just another quick glimpse into the future from a show that does it a lot, most notably with Cinnabon Gene, who I appear to be thinking about a lot today?

Because… I’ll tell you what, man. It sure felt a lot like a real thing, at least more than those other little vignettes. And if we did just jump into the future a bit, if Kim was the only thing stopping him from becoming this goon and her absence means we can just skip through the last stages of his transformation, then what does this mean for the other characters? We can’t have Gus and Mike on a separate timeline. That would be weird. So… what’s going on there? They both had a lot going on, too, Gus with the Salamancas and Mike with… well, Mike stuff.

Let’s talk about that for a second.

Mike is a good dude

ON ONE HAND: Mike is a guy who has a code and wants to do things — even the wrong things — the right way, which sometimes involves calling up the father of a person you watched get murdered and going to meet with him and trying to give him a speech about how his son was a good man and there would be justice and then going home to another can of PBR on a recliner while a baseball game plays in the background like everyone’s dad and/or grandpa.

ON THE OTHER HAND: He works for a cartel. And he does kind of know a lot about how to get rid of a body. And Nacho’s dad did call him out straight to his face about how he’s full of crap and no better than the people he works for/with. Boy, was that a tough moment to watch. For me. Because I love both of them a lot and want them to be happy. And take me fishing. I don’t even fish. At best, I drink beer in a boat. But still. I think my point holds.

Lots to think about here.

The cover of “Perfect Day” that opened the episode will push the Los Pollos jingle out of my head

Hmm.

Hmmmmmmm.

Nope, it did not.

It was very good/cool, and the whole lead-up with their contrasting styles of law as they tried to push through while Mike and his guys scrubbed their living room clean, followed by their faces when they got home and got smacked by reality again… that was a nice touch. It was yet another example of the show using music and montages to drive home points and themes. It all reminded me a lot of this song from a few seasons ago.

But no.

Los Pollos jingle is still in there.

Might be for weeks.

I will keep you updated on this front.

This show knows how to craft a visual

We all spend a lot of time talking about the storytelling bona fides of this show — justifiably, for reasons littered throughout this recap and many others — that I worry sometimes we forget how good it looks, too. Here’s an example. That screencap up there is from when Hector’s letter was being read to Don Eladio, just before the phrase “the Chicken Man hates you,” which is an outrageous sentence to read without any context. But I digress. This was said, out loud, the thing about looking into his eyes, and then moments later we saw this….

Is it the most subtle thing, having the flames of a fire reflect in the lenses of the glasses worn by the quiet businessman who has evil inside him, kind of like he’s a demon or even Satan personified? Hmm. Maybe not. But was it really freaking cool? Buddy, it sure was. Sometimes that’s the more important thing anyway. Good for them.

I love Don Eladio

Maybe this is me. I don’t know. But… doesn’t it feel like every time we see Don Eladio he’s just chilling by the pool, wearing a loud floral shirt, cigar in one hand and liquor in the other, smiling and slapping people on the back and just seeming like he’s unlocked the secret to life? It feels that way to me. I get excited every time he shows up. They could do a whole episode about him. They could do a whole second prequel. I am not joking about this. Show me Don Eladio’s rise to power.

The tricky thing here is that a substantial chunk of Don Eladio’s appeal is that he’s played by Steven Bauer and Steven Bauer rules. Maybe they can use de-aging technology. Either through CGI or in real-life. That would be cool, if we just invented the fountain of youth so Steven Bauer could keep playing cool drug dealers for eternity. There have been far less important things created for far worse reasons. All I’m saying.

These last few episodes are going to tear me apart

The two most recent episodes, the first two to open up the back half of the final season, have both been really good. They have also:

• Killed off Lalo Salamanca, my favorite character on the show and one of my favorite characters on television and one of my favorite television characters ever
• Broken up Jimmy and Kim in a heartbreaking scene that featured harsh truths and sad eyes and maybe sent Kim off the show and into the Midwest while Jimmy launches himself into a tailspin that ends with him rolling out dough in a mall in Omaha

I mean…

Like…

[starting to cry a little but trying to bury it with rage]

WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT TO TAKE FROM ME?

DO YOU WANT ME TO BLEED?

DO YOU WANT TO COME TO MY HOUSE AND TAKE MY LUNCH AND EAT IT IN FRONT OF ME?

WHILE I BLEED?

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

Wait.

No.

Don’t answer that.

I’m a little worried the answer is yes.

What a wonderful television program.

Lizzo is far from coy about her sexual liberation. A track called “I Love You B*tch,” from her latest album, Special, is evidence of this, as she tells her best friend, “I want to text you these fire nudies.” While she didn’t specify the nature of her conversations with her peers in the music industry, she admits that she and Rihanna occasionally DM from time to time.

During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen (per Yahoo), a fan called in and asked if they could ever expect a collaboration with Rihanna.

Lizzo then asked the fan, “Okay, did the army send you? Rihanna was like, ‘Yeah, I’ll be a Lizzbian for a day.’” (“Lizzbian” is the stan name for fans of Lizzo.)

The “About Damn Time” singer continued, saying that the two will playfully flirt with each other, and occasionally talk about sex.

“We don’t talk about sex a lot, but we’re just always giving it to each other,” Lizzo said. “We don’t talk about work, it’s all play with me. But not since she’s been, you know, mommy. ‘Mommihanna.’ So congratulations to her and ASAP Rocky.”

Additionally, Cohen asked Lizzo about other celebrities who have slid into her DMs. She didn’t call anyone out by name, but she implied that several big names have tried to shoot their shots.

“You know, they’ll always be like, ‘Man, you playin’.’ ‘Hey, what’s up, Lizzo?’ Like, I always see that, and I see their name. I’ll be like, ‘Not today,’” Lizzo says.

Lizzo is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

The reactions are pouring in for Jordan Peele‘s third film, the mysterious UFO thriller Nope, which re-teams the director with Get Out star Daniel Kaluuya. While taking great pains not to give away the plot of the sci-fi flick, critics are overwhelmingly here for Peele putting his stamp on the invasion genre with a film that’s rife with social commentary but is also a visual spectacle like nothing Peele has delivered before. Going by the reactions, it appears that Peele swung big with Nope and crushed it.

“I really loved NOPE,” Uproxx‘s Mike Ryan tweeted. “Beyond the symbolism (there’s a good amount of that), I think it really works as a fun alien movie in the spirit of TREMORS (a movie, as I found out, Jordan Peele loves). It feels like a summer alien movie throwback. Great fun.”

“NOPE is out of this world” CNN’s Frank Pallotta tweeted. “A monster mash with great performances (esp. Kaluuya) and a 50s sci-fi invasion motif. A spectacle about the horrors of spectacles. Jordan Peele has been compared to Hitchcock, but NOPE shows he’s a next-gen Carpenter. Enjoy the show and don’t look up.”

“Not going to spoil any aspect of @JordanPeele’s #NopeMovie except to say *big* thumbs up,” writes Steven Weintraub at Collider. “And cinematographer Hoyte Van Hoytema shot the movie using @IMAX cameras so if you’re going to see #Nope see it in IMAX. Hoytema previously shot ‘Tenet,’ ‘Dunkirk,’ and ‘Interstellar.’”

“The most important thing you need to know about NOPE is it’s crazy different from Get Out & Us,” Yahoo! Entertainment’s Kevin Polowy tweeted. “This is Jordan Peele spreading his wings and making big budget Spielberg/esque sci-fi, but with the subtext you’d expect. Enter with an open mind and you’ll be rewarded.”

“So #NopeMovie is absolutely phenomenal in so many ways,” writes Heather Wixson of Daily Dead News. “Perfectly blends together a sci-fi spectacle w/a story that is also something of a Hollywood reckoning & it blew my expectations away. Gorgeously shot, the sound mix is thunderous & the cast all shines. Love love loved it.”

Nope opens in theaters on July 22.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette recently reported that Democratic lieutenant governor (and Snooki’s preferred candidate) John Fetterman has “heavily” out-fundraised his opponent, TV huckster Dr. Oz, in the race for the open senate seat in Pennsylvania.

“Mr. Fetterman’s total haul from individuals and committees, according to campaign finance reports due to the Federal Election Commission on Friday, checked in at $9.9 million,” the Post-Gazette wrote, while Dr. Oz only “brought in $1.1 million, closing the gap a bit by loaning his campaign another $2.2 million.” Fetterman has “five times as much cash” as Oz “at a total of $5.5 million to $1.1 million.”

On Monday, Oz spoke to a skeptical-sounding Fox News host Laura Ingraham, who asked why the not-so-good doctor is being lapped by his rival. His answer involved guns and lawnmowers, or something. “The Democrats have very cleverly taken all of these issues that have come up over the summer ― the Dodd decision, the concerns about guns ― and they’ve used these as excuses to raise money from the Democratic loyalists,” he said. “And interestingly, when Republicans get mad, we go out and mow the lawn. Democrats, when they get mad, donate money to their party.”

Dr. Oz reportedly has a net worth of $100 million — he hasn’t mowed his lawn in years.

On July 14, The Weeknd kicked off his After Hours Til Dawn tour at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field. There was a heartwarming story from that show, as The Weeknd flew out a young fan, who was seen heartbroken outside of The Weeknd’s canceled Toronto concert.

However, the Philadelphia concert also had some tragedy: CBS3 Philly reports a 32-year-old man, who a friend identified to the station as Hugo Sanchez, died at the show. Officials say just before 11 p.m., Sanchez was sitting on an escalator rail and fell about 40 feet. He was rushed to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and was pronounced dead shortly after midnight. Per officials, the incident appears to have been an accident but an investigation is ongoing.

According to a previous CBS3 report, the station reached out to promoter Live Nation for a statement but had yet to hear back, while Lincoln Financial Field representatives declined to comment out of respect for Zanchez’s family.

The Weeknd has yet to offer a public statement about the incident. After the show, though, he did share a gallery of photos from it on Instagram and write, “Philadelphia … we finally did it. thank you for helping me ring in the tour. last night was emotional for all of us. i could feel every single one of you. next stop NEW YORK !”

Greeting a ruthless dictator is a tricky proposition, as Joe Biden discovered late last week. On Friday, during his first visit to the Middle East as president, Biden met with Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at Alsalam Royal Palace. Biden’s reported goal? To not appear too friendly with MBS, especially given the president’s very vocal campaign promises to turn the kingdom into a “global pariah.” Biden’s success in achieving that by offering a fist bump instead of a handshake? Total failure, according to Trevor Noah.

The Daily Show host had a hell of a time mocking the president, whose approval rating has dropped to what Noah described as “somewhere between long COVID and [the] Uvalde Police Department’s.” Inflation and skyrocketing gas prices (though they are now dropping) aren’t doing Biden any favors in that department, which is why, according to Noah, the president spent the weekend in Saudi Arabia “making nice with a frenemy who just happens to own a lot of oil.” But the biggest news to come out of the visit was Biden’s bruh-like greeting of the human rights nightmare, who is believed to be behind the murder of Saudi Arabian journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Noah was amused by how the entire situation played out:

“It’s funny how Biden thought it would be better to fist bump Mohammed bin Salman, because that seems less friendly than a handshake? That’s the whitest decision of all time… Because it’s the opposite. Handshakes are the most formal way to meet someone, even your enemy… But fist bumps? It’s almost like, ‘Ayyyy… What’s up? What’s up, killer? I see you. I see you, man. I see you, player!’”

If Noah had been at the wheel, he would have suggested that Biden go “in for the handshake, and then given him the ‘Psych!’ Just do that move. There’s no comeback for that. Devastating!”

Former Trump Chief Strategist Steve Bannon is spending his week tying up legal system resources in a case that his own podcast guests see no hope of him winning. That would be the contempt charges for his refusal to testify for the Jan. 6 committee, and given that he did, in fact, refuse to testify upon subpoena, it sure seems like a cut-and-dried case. Leaked audio of Bannon’s maneuvering doesn’t help matters for Congress’ actual proceedings either for the alleged “coup plotter,” but at the moment, people are very outraged about a comparison that’s surfaced in what appears to be a courtroom sketch.

There’s no verification on precisely what evil has transpired, but what’s outraging people is an addition (to the sketch) that compares Bannon’s physical appearance to that of a beloved Peanuts comic strip character. All of this is happening after Bannon actually attempted to clean up a bit ^^ for court after previously growing upset at how people believe that he resembles a “deranged incel.” With that said, here’s that “courtroom sketch” as tweeted by meme-mischief king Paul Leigh. It’s Pigpen!

The image (which appears to be gleaned from the work of artist Bill Hennessey, whose sketches so far can be viewed at CNN) purports to be Bannon’s appearance in open court, although jury selection’s currently ongoing.

The reactions came fast and fierce, led by Mark Hamill, who declared “This is SO unfair to Pigpen.”

From there, the outraged responses continued, including people who lamented the injustice of Pigpen being compared to a megalomaniacal podcaster who pushed to overthrow the U.S. government. Pigpen would never.

And to end things, here’s a Beetlejuice comparison. “It’s showtime,” for sure.

During “Point and Shoot,” the eighth episode of Better Call Saul’s sixth and final season, my heart rate went up so high that my FitBit recorded a workout. The intense, gripping nightmare of an episode that put Kim Wexler very close to death was a masterpiece in television storytelling. It felt like it lasted for five minutes but also five years. It never gave itself, its characters, or its audience any time to breathe without feeling overstuffed. Stressful events followed stressful events until the episode ended with a gut punch so emotionally devastating (Mike Ehrmantraut buries Howard Hamlin with his murderer Lalo Salamanca underneath the meth lab Walter White and Jesse Pinkman would later work in) that it felt like I actually got punched in the gut and lost air for several minutes. Medically, I am fine now.

The following episode, titled “Fun and Games,” is anything but that. Although slower-paced than “Point and Shoot,” it’s an essential episode that accelerates the story. By the end of the episode, Gustavo Fring has flirted over wine, Kim has left Jimmy and, finally, we see what so many expected of this show since the beginning: Saul Goodman in a lavish but tacky house, a saturated button-down and wide tie, just as we knew him on Breaking Bad.

For its first five and a half seasons, Better Call Saul moved slower than, say, a Buick in South Florida or me after a couple of glasses of wine. The show’s deliberate slow burn provided a significant contrast to its predecessor. The show focused on gradual character development rather than a fast-paced narrative. The first several seasons unpacked the complex dynamic between characters Jimmy McGill and his older, more successful brother Chuck McGill. Once Chuck died, the show began to focus most of its energy on the on-and-off-again romance between Jimmy and Kim Wexler. Along the way, the show gave us glimpses of Jimmy’s life both before Saul Goodman and after Saul Goodman, with subplots we’re familiar with from Breaking Bad developing in the background. At times, the show moved so leisurely that it felt like it would never get to the point where we even met Saul Goodman. Slowly, but surely, it’s gotten there with four episodes left.

All along, no matter how snail-paced it was, Better Call Saul felt like it was teasing an explosive endgame with an increase in pace along with inevitable death and destruction. The first half of the final season, which aired this spring, teased that speed and darkness with the final days and moments of Nacho Vargas and Howard Hamlin. Generally, though, the show kept its foot on the brakes. Now in its final episode push, the foot isn’t just off the brakes: it’s flooring the gas pedal with the brakes cut off.

Better Call Saul is now the opposite of what it’s always been. It is straight-up stressful, perhaps even more stressful than Breaking Bad, which spent its entire run at an incredibly rapid pace with frequent violence and wreckage, both physical and emotional. While nothing could have prepared anyone for the devastating episode that was “Ozymandias” (don’t make me say it but that’s the one where Hank dies), that outcome was inevitable and unsurprising given what came before it. On Better Call Saul, which has spent its entire run in a patient, quiet place, we’re completely unprepared for what’s to come. With Breaking Bad we could ask “is Hank going to die?” but we always knew the answer. With Better Call Saul we ask “will Kim die?” and we genuinely have no idea (though I, personally hope for her survival).

After years of coddling us with a reliable if slow pace, the final episodes of Better Call Saul feel like getting slapped in the face constantly for their 50ish minutes. Ultimately, this pace reversal is a dark, clever metaphor for how quickly Jimmy permanently abandons Jimmy McGill for Saul Goodman.

Later this week, Issa Rae will begin the next chapter of her career as her new show Rap Sh!t will premiere on HBO Max. The show follows two Miami-based rappers who are seeking success in the music industry. The first season of Rap Sh!t, which stars Aida Osman and KaMillion, will put forth eight episodes in total, with the first two arriving on July 21. In addition to work from Rae behind the scenes, Rap Sh!t also features contributions from a number of people in the music industry. During a recent interview on Late Night With Seth Meyers, Rae spoke about some of them.

During their conversation, Meyers asked Rae how she was able to have authentic rap lyrics and songs on the show. She revealed that there were artists in the music world present in the show’s writers’ room to help craft the songs. Rae said that she was able to “employ some of my favorite rap artists” like PineappleCITI, Ncognita, and Dreezy to construct songs for the show. Rae also noted that she is “really proud of the music on the show.”

In addition to the aforementioned artists, City Girls’ JT and Yung Miami will serve as executive producers on the show while Devonte Hynes, also known as Blood Orange, is the show’s music composer.
