For a special SNL digital short, Charli XCX joined forces with comic collective The Lonely Island (comprised of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone). In the segment all about the love of snitching, Charli XCX and Andy Samberg came together for a hilarious original song, “Here I Go.”
The ‘Karen’-inspired track found a way to turn the gross misappropriation of local law enforcement for minor inconveniences. “I’ve been itching to do some snitching / I’m in my kitchen listening to my conditioning / And then picking up that phone / And I know you’re not supposed to do this anymore / But does it help to know that who I snitched on was white,” sings Samberg.
Charli XCX is known for her rather chill personality. But she does a complete about-face to embody the uptight role. Earlier in the show, Charli delivered two performances of “360” and “Sympathy Is A Knife,” but she was sure to lend some vocals to the sketch.
“Now, hold up, wait a minute / ‘Cause I’m about to snitch like I invented it / They gonna roll up any minute / I paid my f*cking taxes now I’m cashing in on every penny,” sings Charli XCX.
Users online have dubbed the track an instant hit in the same vein of The Lonely Island’s previous SNL banger “Sushi Glory Hole,” which was all about secret sushi spots in New York City.
Watch “Here I Go” by Andy Samberg featuring Charli XCX for Saturday Night Live above.
With ‘Brat Summer’ long since gone, Charli XCX fans have ushered in ‘Brat Autumn.’ Yesterday (November 16), the “Apple” singer breezed through New York City to show off just how chill she is.
To fulfill her obligations as a SNL musical guest, Charli XCX delivered not one but two in-studio performances. With an introduction of the track’s famous reference (Julia Fox), Charli XCX treated guests to a lively performance of “360.” Although the Grammy Award nominated album’s beloved font wasn’t featured into the set design, Charli’s now signature neon green was plastered everywhere. Charli XCX brought the party energy infused into the track as she stomp across the stage lit by flashing lights.
Next, Bowen Yang took to the crowd to reintroduce Charli XCX for her performance of “Sympathy Is A Knife.” The change of set scenery served as a taste of what ticket holder experienced during her co-headlining Sweat tour with Troye Sivan, which officially wrapped last month.
Watch Charli XCX’s Saturday Night Live performance of “360” above and “Sympathy Is A Knife” below.

Yesterday (November 17), Tyler The Creator’s beloved music festival Camp Flog Gnaw kicked off its 10th anniversary. While the 2024 Camp Flog Gnaw lineup featured many of the “Sticky” rapper’s collaborators. But one musical figure and frequent performer was terribly missed—Mac Miller.
But Mac was present in spirit. Between Sampha and Alchemist & Friends’ set at 2024 Camp Flog Gnaw, a video teaser featuring Mac Miller’s previously leaked track “5 Dollar Pony Rides” played across the screens (viewable here).
As the clip ends, the displays flash the word “soon.” Given that the track has long since circulated online and is a feature record on Mac Miller’s long-lost album, Balloonerism. Supporters are jumping for joy as the series of songs were supposedly recorded between 2013 and 2014.
In a now-delete post (viewable here) from E. Dan of ID Labs spoke about the mythical project. “[Mac] did make an actual track list (a few actually) and pretty much all of the songs you all know as ‘Balloonerism’ were made inside of a week stemming from what was basically jam sessions,” he wrote. “He did indeed move on from it, took a few of the songs for ‘Faces’ and never got back to it.”
He then addressed the fans rumors surrounding the project, writing: “Some of the artwork and the track lists you see for this online aren’t from Mac. They are made up. The project itself was a real thing in so far as Mac made a few iTunes playlists about it, but it never got finished.”
After a year of wondering what the future holds for Inside the NBA and the beloved cast that makes up the best studio show in sports, we learned that this will not be the final year of its existence, despite TNT losing rights to NBA games. That is because the league and WBD struck a settlement agreement that will keep WBD and TNT Sports very much a part of the NBA, as they’ll take over some international rights and continue contributing to NBA Digital.
Most notably for fans, they will also continue producing Inside the NBA, but in a stunning twist, the show will get licensed to ESPN. That news was met with plenty of excitement on Saturday night, but it also raises plenty of questions. Here, we’ll go through a handful of the biggest ones we have, as well as what we think will be the answers, even though we will have to wait for official word — and the first year of this partnership to begin — for the real results.
What night(s) will they be on the air?
For years, the full Inside crew has worked on Thursdays, while we’ve seen them more and more often on Tuesdays recently — particularly during NFL season. And even when Chuck, Kenny, and Ernie aren’t working on Tuesdays, Shaq is usually on there with a different cast of characters.
Under the new agreement, the reported national TV schedule will see ESPN broadcast games on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with ABC continuing its Saturday showcase games. That is a lot of game nights and obviously means the current schedule for the Inside crew will change. I cannot see them agreeing to be on every game day for ESPN, and it would make the most sense to me for them to move to Wednesdays or Fridays and the ABC Saturday showcase games, with ESPN running its Countdown crew for the other ESPN dates.
Will they get a full postgame show (and if so, what happens with SVP’s SportsCenter on those nights)?
While this question also applies to any sort of pregame show and halftime breaks, Inside has turned into an institution because of its postgame show. Currently, postgame duties are handled by Scott Van Pelt as the A-block for his nightly SportsCenter, but it’d be insane for ESPN to license the show out and not actually have Inside the NBA after games. Right now, Inside the NBA runs for … well, kind of however long the guys feel like talking. Their block on the TV guide is for an hour (midnight to 1 a.m.) but if they go long or short, no one really worries about it and they fire up the replay of the game or a movie. I’d expect ESPN to give them a bit more structure for their postgame window, but you don’t go through the trouble of paying to bring the show in just to not use the best part.
Perhaps that will also be a factor in when they are on air, as SVP’s SportsCenter runs Sunday-Thursday, meaning Fridays they would just be bumping a regular SportsCenter rather than preempting SVP’s show on Wednesdays. Plus it’s worth mentioning that Van Pelt does a fantastic job with his postgame show, particularly when he has Tim Legler in the studio and can have a lengthy back-and-forth with him — although Legler has been calling more games this season, unless he gets elevated to the No. 1 booth alongside Mike Breen and Doris Burke, his schedule should be open when, say, the NBA Finals roll around.
There’s still plenty of time to figure out all of these logistics, but there are some fascinating conversations to be had at ESPN involving some of their biggest talent now that they’re licensing Inside. Fortunately, they’ll have the next year to get this all sorted out.
How much will ESPN meddle with a winning formula?
Honestly, this might come down to the details of the agreement. The hope, of course, is that ESPN has very little say in the production and content of the show and is happy to just let the fellas do what they do best. I am less concerned with ESPN trying to force the Inside crew to change what they do (I’m not sure you could even successfully do that if you tried), and more concerned with whether they’ll provide them with the time they’re accustomed to having. The talent obviously is number one, but the second-biggest reason for the success of TNT’s studio show is the space they provide that talent to be themselves and go off on the tangents and conversations that make the show so unique.
ESPN, on the other hand, has historically used its studio shows as a way to wedge in as many commercials as possible. That won’t work, and I can guarantee if they try to get the Inside guys to talk in 30-45 second soundbites for pregame and halftime, they’ll revolt — plus I can already foresee how mad fans would get at ESPN “ruining the show.” I’m fascinated to see how all of this comes together, because it’s not going to be the exact same setup regarding time, but ESPN is going to have to change its approach pretty significantly to make this work.
How much crossover will we see between ESPN talent on Inside the NBA and the Inside crew on ESPN shows?
This goes along with the last question, and I would expect the answer to be “some” but not a lot. For example, I’d expect to see Stephen A. Smith popping up on occasion during the season with the fellas and, very possibly, just outright joining the crew for the NBA Finals. At the very least, this makes his contract negotiations with ESPN a little more interesting, because the network doesn’t need him to be the face of their NBA coverage anymore, while Smith can pivot even farther into wanting to be a face of their NFL coverage.
However, because the Inside guys will remain WBD employees, making appearances on their shows, I don’t think we’ll see them showing up too often on ESPN’s other programs. We already see Barkley do random appearances, so I think those will continue, but I don’t think we’re going to see Shaq suddenly as a regular on First Take. If you don’t believe me, please enjoy one of my favorite recent Inside moments when they all laugh hysterically about how ESPN talent gets overworked and put on every show and every network constantly.
The Inside the NBA crew talking about what it’d be like if the show was on ESPN was hilarious
By licensing Inside, ESPN has finally found a permanent solution for the revolving door that has been the NBA Countdown desk. No longer do they have to try and put together a star-studded group of personalities in an effort to challenge TNT, but what does that mean for the current group, especially considering they’ll still need a pregame and halftime show for their non-Inside the NBA nights? My guess would be that this will be the last year we see Stephen A. and Michael Wilbon on Countdown. Smith is reportedly pushing for a Monday Night Football gig as part of his contract negotiations, and I can’t imagine Wilbon being particularly interested in being part of the B-team for weekend games — as we’ve said in the past, Wilbon can still have a role on the network’s NBA coverage by focusing on the sorts of sit down interviews with players that he consistently knocks out of the park. Just speculating here, but I think we’ll see the continuation of the NBA Today crossover crew on those Friday and Sunday games on ESPN, with Malika Andrews, Richard Jefferson (who might get moved to calling games full-time), Chiney Ogwumike, and Kendrick Perkins. Bob Myers also could stay in the rotation there, but he also might just get moved to game broadcasts full-time.
Every single week, our TV and film experts will list the most important ten streaming selections for you to pop into your queues. We’re not strictly operating upon reviews or accrued streaming clicks (although yes, we’ve scoured the streaming site charts) but, instead, upon those selections that are really worth noticing amid the churning sea of content. There’s a lot out there, after all, and your time is valuable.
These days, you can’t even log onto a streaming service without seeing a new spy series prominently showcased, and there’s a damn good reason for this phenomenon: the bingewatching appetite is there. Several new additions are likely demanding your attention as we speak, and those include a series remake of the same-named 1970s film directed by Fred Zinnemann. Recent Broadway Cabaret Emcee Eddie Redmayne takes on the lone-assassin role of the Jackal, whose unparalleled run of lucrative hits meets more than its match when Latasha Lynch’s British intelligence officer is hot on his trail.
The only reason that this show fell down on this list is that Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone has returned with Landman incoming, too. Otherwise, this title that is like no other Taylor Sheridan series is proving that he’s no mere cowboy, and Zoe Saldana must be relishing her move. She reprises her role as Joe here, who’s still attempting to adequately juggle her personal and professional lives — a major IRL issue as countless women can attest — within a CIA program that is inspired by upon the real-life Marine Corps all-women Lioness program. Newcomer Genesis Rodriguez has helped this show take higher flight, too.
Talk about a horror show. This film likely would have been streamed into oblivion regardless of how it landed around Halloween, and it’s no mere coincidence that the two films arrive with similar titles and Sam Raimi attached as producer. Within a tightly-packaged flick, Kelsey Asbille portrays a woman who finds herself with 20 minutes on the clock after a serial killer (Finn Whitlock) injects her with a paralytic drug. For sure, this is a high-concept take on the “the man or the bear in a forest” question that began on the internet but has spread elsewhere due to, well, current events. You might feel like going back to watch (or rewatch) Fede Álvarez’s Don’t Breathe after this Netflix movie concludes, so be prepared for that contagion to hit.
Are you ready to get your steampunk on? Gamers and cosplayers have been holding watch parties while you’ve been busy watching spy shows, and there’s no time like the present to branch out because there’s so many worlds out there for every TV viewer. This also happens to be Ella Purnell’s second successful video-game TV series and co-stars Hailee Steinfeld while sisters find themselves fighting as rivals in a tech-fueled war between the Piltover and Zaun twin cities. Show-stopping animation (even if you aren’t usually into animation) and a thrilling story will get you hooked.
Nobody else could have portrayed Hugh Howey’s mechanical genius, Juliette, like Rebecca Ferguson. Her charisma (even while playing a character who is probably autistic and doesn’t want the attention) shines through during the most physically grueling moments of this role, and since Justified showrunner Graham Yost is adapting this series without a hitch, it’s alright to start drawing Raylan Givens comparisons when Juliette becomes sheriff. That’s only a small part of this series, however, and the second season begins leveling up (or down, rather) after Juliette was pushed out to “clean” and then decided, hey, the heck with your “order.” Steve Zahn has joined the cast as a fan-favorite character, and I wouldn’t be mad if this show goes off book, and he sets fire to Common’s Infuriating Leather Jacket.
You might have heard the debate on whether this is “the next Yellowstone.” Well, the Australian series takes place on within The Outback and involves fellow cattle barons and wealthy villains attempting to seize a family ranch, but that might be where the similarities end (at least for now). Surely, a second-season renewal is forthcoming for this Neo-Western show that instantly sped up the streaming charts and managed to beat Kurt Sutter’s (or what used to be Kurt Sutter’s) The Abandons to the small screen. FYI, Netflix also has American Primeval coming next year for Western fans, too.
The Enduringly Awkward Aubrey Plaza has been having an extended moment (with The White Lotus, Emily The Criminal, and Agatha All Along among other projects) that has long been coming. In this film, she portrays a 39-year-old version of the wisecracking 18-year-old protagonist, Elliott (Maisy Stella), who could use a few warnings about life. Fortunately, Elliot manages to overcome the strangeness of being lectured by Elliot, who appears during a mushroom-fueled trip, and this leads to a defining comedy that might make you wish that you had access to those same mushrooms when you were eighteen, too.
Are you looking to watch Paul Atreides rode a sandworm? Get outta here with that. In all seriousness, this series takes place about 10,000 years before Denis Villeneuve’s blockbuster movies take flight and before Duncan Idaho was far too handsome to be striding around on Arrakis. This recently launched series will detail how the Bene Gesserit sisterhood will show the audience a new side of Frank Herbert’s epic brainchild. Dune: Prophecy follows the Sisterhood of Dune book penned by Brian Herbert (son of Frank) and Kevin J. Anderson, who detailed how a war has destroyed technology as this civilization has known it, and with that, the worldbuilding can begin anew.
The episode count controversy will likely last until the third season arrives, but this season somehow managed to throw down a cliffhanger that topped the last one. Keri Russell is having an absolute ball in her role as frazzled title character Kate Wyler, and Rufus Sewell cannot possibly have enjoyed himself more elsewhere than as Hal, agent of marital and professional chaos. As a whole, this series is leaning harder into wry comedy with the second season, and these six episodes do fly by far too fast. The supporting cast — including David Gyasi, Ali Ahn, Ato Essandoh, Allison Janney, and Rory Kinnear — all bring their A-game and help make this series a genuine pleasure to behold.

Kevin Costner wasn’t sure why these final episodes were advertised with John Dutton’s face, either, but hey, that tactic appears to have worked out for Taylor Sheridan and Paramount Network. Neither party has confirmed whether this series is truly headed into the sunset and fully passing the baton to The Madison, but that rodeo will get there when it does.

Surely, a second-season renewal is forthcoming for this Neo-Western show that instantly sped up the streaming charts and managed to beat Kurt Sutter’s (or what used to be Kurt Sutter’s) The Abandons to the small screen. FYI, Netflix also has American Primeval coming next year for Western fans, too.
The Enduringly Awkward Aubrey Plaza has been having an extended moment (with The White Lotus, Emily The Criminal, and Agatha All Along among other projects) that has long been coming. In this film, she portrays a 39-year-old version of the wisecracking 18-year-old protagonist, Elliott (Maisy Stella), who could use a few warnings about life. Fortunately, Elliot manages to overcome the strangeness of being lectured by Elliot, who appears during a mushroom-fueled trip, and this leads to a defining comedy that might make you wish that you had access to those same mushrooms when you were eighteen, too.
Are you looking to watch Paul Atreides rode a sandworm? Get outta here with that. In all seriousness, this series takes place about 10,000 years before Denis Villeneuve’s blockbuster movies take flight and before Duncan Idaho was far too handsome to be striding around on Arrakis. This recently launched series will detail how the Bene Gesserit sisterhood will show the audience a new side of Frank Herbert’s epic brainchild. Dune: Prophecy follows the Sisterhood of Dune book penned by Brian Herbert (son of Frank) and Kevin J. Anderson, who detailed how a war has destroyed technology as this civilization has known it, and with that, the worldbuilding can begin anew.
The episode count controversy will likely last until the third season arrives, but this season somehow managed to throw down a cliffhanger that topped the last one. Keri Russell is having an absolute ball in her role as frazzled title character Kate Wyler, and Rufus Sewell cannot possibly have enjoyed himself more elsewhere than as Hal, agent of marital and professional chaos. As a whole, this series is leaning harder into wry comedy with the second season, and these six episodes do fly by far too fast. The supporting cast — including David Gyasi, Ali Ahn, Ato Essandoh, Allison Janney, and Rory Kinnear — all bring their A-game and help make this series a genuine pleasure to behold.
1. Yellowstone – Paramount series streaming on Hulu Live
Kevin Costner wasn’t sure why these final episodes were advertised with John Dutton’s face, either, but hey, that tactic appears to have worked out for Taylor Sheridan and Paramount Network. Neither party has confirmed whether this series is truly headed into the sunset and fully passing the baton to The Madison, but that rodeo will get there when it does. And the same goes for when these new episodes will land on Peacock.
Every single week, our TV and film experts will list the most important ten streaming selections for you to pop into your queues. We’re not strictly operating upon reviews or accrued streaming clicks (although yes, we’ve scoured the streaming site charts) but, instead, upon those selections that are really worth noticing amid the churning sea of content. There’s a lot out there, after all, and your time is valuable.
These days, you can’t even log onto a streaming service without seeing a new spy series prominently showcased, and there’s a damn good reason for this phenomenon: the bingewatching appetite is there. Several new additions are likely demanding your attention as we speak, and those include a series remake of the same-named 1970s film directed by Fred Zinnemann. Recent Broadway Cabaret Emcee Eddie Redmayne takes on the lone-assassin role of the Jackal, whose unparalleled run of lucrative hits meets more than its match when Latasha Lynch’s British intelligence officer is hot on his trail.
The only reason that this show fell down on this list is that Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone has returned with Landman incoming, too. Otherwise, this title that is like no other Taylor Sheridan series is proving that he’s no mere cowboy, and Zoe Saldana must be relishing her move. She reprises her role as Joe here, who’s still attempting to adequately juggle her personal and professional lives — a major IRL issue as countless women can attest — within a CIA program that is inspired by upon the real-life Marine Corps all-women Lioness program. Newcomer Genesis Rodriguez has helped this show take higher flight, too.
Talk about a horror show. This film likely would have been streamed into oblivion regardless of how it landed around Halloween, and it’s no mere coincidence that the two films arrive with similar titles and Sam Raimi attached as producer. Within a tightly-packaged flick, Kelsey Asbille portrays a woman who finds herself with 20 minutes on the clock after a serial killer (Finn Whitlock) injects her with a paralytic drug. For sure, this is a high-concept take on the “the man or the bear in a forest” question that began on the internet but has spread elsewhere due to, well, current events. You might feel like going back to watch (or rewatch) Fede Álvarez’s Don’t Breathe after this Netflix movie concludes, so be prepared for that contagion to hit.
Are you ready to get your steampunk on? Gamers and cosplayers have been holding watch parties while you’ve been busy watching spy shows, and there’s no time like the present to branch out because there’s so many worlds out there for every TV viewer. This also happens to be Ella Purnell’s second successful video-game TV series and co-stars Hailee Steinfeld while sisters find themselves fighting as rivals in a tech-fueled war between the Piltover and Zaun twin cities. Show-stopping animation (even if you aren’t usually into animation) and a thrilling story will get you hooked.
Nobody else could have portrayed Hugh Howey’s mechanical genius, Juliette, like Rebecca Ferguson. Her charisma (even while playing a character who is probably autistic and doesn’t want the attention) shines through during the most physically grueling moments of this role, and since Justified showrunner Graham Yost is adapting this series without a hitch, it’s alright to start drawing Raylan Givens comparisons when Juliette becomes sheriff. That’s only a small part of this series, however, and the second season begins leveling up (or down, rather) after Juliette was pushed out to “clean” and then decided, hey, the heck with your “order.” Steve Zahn has joined the cast as a fan-favorite character, and I wouldn’t be mad if this show goes off book, and he sets fire to Common’s Infuriating Leather Jacket.
