    ‘Dutton Ranch’: Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser & Annette Bening On Beth & Rip’s Texas Reset, ‘Batman Returns,’ & Taylor Sheridan’s Shadow, & More [Bingeworthy Podcast]

    03/06/2026 | 25 mins.
    Following up on a cultural phenomenon like “Yellowstone” is no easy task. Any spin-off has to balance honoring what made the original series a hit while finding its own fresh ground. With “Dutton Ranch,” especially after the letdown of “Marshals,” that challenge falls on Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler, who leave Montana behind for Texas in hopes of building something new, only to discover that new beginnings come with familiar dangers. Maybe they’re magnets for this kind of thing.
    “Dutton Ranch,” the new “Yellowstone” spin-off that follows Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler as they gamble everything on a new life in Texas. Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser return as the fan-favorite couple, with Finn Little back as Carter. This time, the Dutton orbit expands to include Annette Bening as Beulah Jackson, a formidable Texas rancher whose power, control, and family legacy put her directly in Beth’s path. The series also stars Ed Harris, Jai Courtney, J.R. Villarreal, Marc Menchaca, Juan Pablo Raba, Natalie Alyn Lind, and more.

    On this episode of Bingeworthy, host Mike DeAngelo speaks with Reilly, Bening, and Hauser about carrying the “Yellowstone” legacy into a new chapter. The conversations cover Beth and Rip’s move from Montana to Texas, Beulah’s dangerous grip on power, the show’s darker Episode 4 turn, and how the creative team approached evolving characters that fans already know inside and out.

    ‘Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed’: Tatiana Maslany, Jake Johnson, David Gordon Green & David Rosen On Lonely Screens, Bad Decisions, ‘She-Hulk,’ ‘Spider-Verse’ & More [Bingeworthy Podcast]

    19/05/2026 | 39 mins.
    Some shows walk into the room with a genre label pinned neatly to their shirt. They wear it like a badge of honor and adhere to all rules therein. “Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed” kicks the door open, knocks over the lamp, checks its phone (Where's my phone?!), spirals emotionally, and somehow still has time to become a murder mystery. It's part divorce drama, part paranoid thriller, part loneliness comedy, and part “please stop making that decision, Paula” anxiety machine. Better yet, it knows exactly how messy that cocktail should taste, and, boy, does it taste good.
    The new Apple TV+ series stars Tatiana Maslany as Paula, a lonely single mother caught in the meat grinder of divorce, custody fights, work stress, and modern connection. When she reaches out through her computer for something that looks like intimacy, or maybe just proof that she still exists outside everyone else’s demands, she tumbles into a voyeuristic thriller that writer David Rosen described as a “modern day Rear Window.” The series also stars Jake Johnson as Carl, Paula’s ex-husband and co-parent, a man who often looks like the reasonable adult in the room until reason starts feeling a little too much like the wrong kind of control.
    On this episode of Bingeworthy, host Mike DeAngelo speaks with Maslany, Johnson, Rosen, and director David Gordon Green about building the show’s live-wire tone, turning a broken relationship into a suspense engine, and finding humor inside a life that already feels like it has 19 browser tabs open.

    ‘Obsession’ Interview: Curry Barker On His Twisted Wish-Fulfillment Horror Breakout, Inde Navarrette’s Wild Performance, ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre,’ & More [The Discourse Podcast]

    13/05/2026 | 23 mins.
    Be careful what you wish for, sure. But maybe be even more careful what you confuse for love, because Curry Barker’s “Obsession” takes one of horror’s oldest tricks and turns it into something queasy, funny, tragic, and deeply uncomfortable. It is the kind of movie that starts with a premise simple enough to fit on a cursed greeting card, then keeps tightening the rope until everyone in the room starts laughing from sheer discomfort. 
    Written, directed, and edited by Barker, “Obsession” follows Bear (Michael Johnston), a music store employee, as his crush on his childhood friend and co-worker, Nikki (Inde Navarrette), leads him to buy a strange object called the One Wish Willow. He wishes for Nikki to love him more than anyone else in the world. The wish works, which is exactly the problem. The film also stars Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, and Andy Richter, and opens in theaters on May 15 from Focus Features.
    Barker joined The Discourse to discuss the new horror film, which arrives after his micro-budget YouTube breakout “Milk & Serial” and his acclaimed short “The Chair.” The conversation covered the film’s uncomfortable festival reactions, the dark emotional machinery behind unearned love, Navarrette’s knockout performance, the possibility of more One Wish Willow stories, and his upcoming work on “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and “Anything But Ghosts.”

    ‘From’ Season 4: Harold Perrineau On Boyd’s Psychological Collapse, Wild Fan Theories, ‘Lost,’ & More [Bingeworthy Podcast]

    07/05/2026 | 20 mins.
    The town on “From” has always felt less like a place and more like an emotional pressure cooker with monsters hiding in the walls. Every season cranks that pressure a little higher on the survivors, then asks them to keep pretending they can still function as leaders, parents, lovers, or even just regular people. Season 4 somehow makes all of that feel even more unstable. Hope is not dead in this show. It’s worse than that. Hope is absolutely exhausted.
    The hit MGM+ horror mystery returned recently for Season 4 and continues through the end of June, once again following the trapped residents of a nightmarish town where escape seems impossible and the creatures outside only scratch the surface of what’s really wrong here. Season 4 stars Harold Perrineau, Catalina Sandino Moreno, David Alpay, Elizabeth Saunders, Scott McCord, and more, as the series continues pulling at threads that somehow only create bigger knots.
    On this episode of Bingeworthy, host Mike DeAngelo is joined by Harold Perrineau to discuss Boyd’s deteriorating mental state, the exhausting psychology of the series, wild fan theories, the legacy of “Lost,” and even why making “The Matrix” nearly short-circuited his inner fanboy.
    ‘The Boys’ Season 5: Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Karen Fukuhara, Jensen Ackles, Erin Moriarty, and Laz Alonso On Ending The Series, and Potential Spin-Offs [Bingeworthy Podcast]
    Yes, season 4 finds Boyd in especially brutal shape, something Perrineau immediately acknowledged when discussing where the character is emotionally this year.

    ‘Hokum’: Director Damian McCarthy On Haunted Hotels, Folk Horror Roots, and His Next Film [The Discourse Podcast]

    30/04/2026 | 26 mins.
    Director Damian McCarthy really loves to hit that dread button, and in “Hokum,” he absolutely wears that thing out. Not with loud shocks or cheap jolts, but with the kind of slow, creeping unease that just sits there, staring back at you. The longer you watch, the more it feels like the movie isn’t escalating so much as tightening, quietly, deliberately, until there’s nowhere left to go. Then he slaps you across the face for good measure.

    Written and directed by McCarthy, “Hokum” stars Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, and Austin Amelio. The film follows novelist Ohm Bauman, who retreats to a remote Irish inn to scatter his parents’ ashes, only to become consumed by stories of a witch tied to the hotel’s honeymoon suite. Disturbing visions and a sudden disappearance begin to fracture whatever control he has left, forcing him to confront a past that doesn’t stay buried.
    On this episode of The Discourse, McCarthy joins the podcast to break down how “Hokum” came together, why he stripped the story down rather than build it out, and how he balances supernatural horror with something far more immediate and human. The starting point was as simple as it gets.
