Everything You’ve Got to Watch to Make Thanksgiving Special
5+ day, 5+ hour ago (1338+ words) I love Thanksgiving traditions. The one I love most? Sitting on a couch doing nothing but watching television for four days. But when it comes to fusing one's body with the couch for 96 hours of TV watching'on that, I am proudly an expert. One of the most fun parts of Thanksgiving, for me, is just watching things with my family. It's the best example of why I love pop culture: It brings us together, gets us to talk with each other, and we get to really feel something while doing it. Bonds and memories are forged and fortified while we simply just watch things. It's really special. With that in mind, I recently asked my colleagues at The Daily Beast what they're watching this weekend, be it a tradition that they've had with their families for years, something new that's…...
‘Charlotte’s Web’ Author’s Granddaughter Torches DHS Using Book Title in Immigration Raids
1+ week, 6+ day ago (756+ words) The granddaughter of Charlotte's Web author E.B. White has blasted the Trump administration for naming a brutal immigration crackdown after the children's classic. In the 1952 book, Charlotte the spider spins words in her web to save a doomed pig. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials lifted the title for "Operation Charlotte's Web," a Border Patrol and ICE push in Charlotte, North Carolina, that officials say targets "criminal illegal aliens who flocked to the Tar Heel State because they knew sanctuary politicians would protect them." Martha White, who manages her grandfather's literary estate, drew a stark line between the raids and the values at the heart of Charlotte's Web. In a statement shared with CNN, White said the author "certainly didn't believe in masked men, in unmarked cars, raiding people's homes and workplaces without IDs or summons," adding: "He didn't condone fearmongering....
See the Five Products Our Commerce Editor Was Obsessed With Last Month in Add to Cart
3+ week, 3+ day ago (282+ words) Welcome to "Add to Cart: Mia's Monthly Must-Haves," a series that picks the brain of Scouted's Managing Editor of Commerce, Mia Maguire. Every month, Mia highlights the gems she's found that are worth spending your hard-earned coin on. Here's what she is loving (or as she would say, "obsessed with") this month. "The thing is, the perfect white tee is surprisingly hard to find. The cheap ones sold in packs of three almost always disappoint'they stretch out, lose shape, and feel stiff no matter how often you wash them. And unless you stumble across that perfectly worn-in vintage find (usually covered in stains and holes), most affordable options just don't feel the same as their luxe counterparts." "So when I came across a brand literally called Perfect White Tee, I knew I had to test the name. After years of…...

How Did The Muppets Bomb So Spectacularly on Broadway?
2+ week, 3+ day ago (424+ words) In the hallowed name of Veterinarians" Hospital'Bongos, Dr. Bob?what is going on? The Muppets" long-overdue Broadway debut is over almost as soon as it began, the show now closing this Sunday. It was originally scheduled to run until Jan. 18, 2026; instead, at the time of its closing, Playbill reports, it will have played just 20 preview performances and four regular ones. Why was Animal so silent? Where was Beaker, the Swedish Chef, and the glorious clucking chorus of chickens? Why were the Muppets making their Broadway debut in someone else"s show? Why don"t they have their own? Why weren"t we hearing them live (they"ve played the Hollywood Bowl and London"s O2 before)? On film, the Muppets took Manhattan in 1984; 41 years later, they should not be playing second fiddle to anyone else in this town. They are the…...
Trump Knows He’s Running Out of Time: Author
2+ week, 3+ day ago (468+ words) President Donald Trump's fast-paced days and sleepless nights seem to suggest that he knows the clock is ticking, according to a veteran White House correspondent. On a new episode of The Daily Beast Podcast, ABC News' Jonathan Karl joined a chorus of officials and reporters who have flagged the 79-year-old's unusual lifestyle'and why "the guy actually seems to have a hell of a lot of energy." "He's constantly'constant energy, constant activity, and he's almost acting like a guy that feels like he's running out of time," he went on. "Look, he's 79 years old. He doesn't really exercise. His diet isn't exactly the model diet. At some point, all the speculation about his health will be true. I just won't be the one speculating on it." Administration officials have repeatedly touted Trump's lack of sleep as a testament to his work…...
The Most Fascinating Villain of the Year Is on Stage
3+ week, 5+ day ago (425+ words) The counter-intuitive heart of Joe Murphy and Joe Robertson's play Kyoto is its focus on the machinations of an apparent villain to tell the story of what turned out to be a significant victory of the good. That victory'the signing of the Kyoto Protocol in 1997'is the end-highpoint of the play, now recalled as a landmark achievement that didn't ultimately lead to sustained global change. By the time of the protocol officially going into force in 2005, 192 countries had signed up to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but the initial blaze of achievement around its ratification faded next to its long-term lack of vigorous application (and being superseded by the Paris Agreement of 2016). The human vehicle for its voyage is Don Pearlman (Stephen Kunken), a brilliantly contrarian and provocative choice for a lead character. We watch as Pearlman, a lawyer and oil…...
Disney Star Under Fire for ‘Dystopian’ Dead Relative App
2+ week, 2+ day ago (406+ words) Former Disney Channel star Calum Worthy's latest non-acting endeavor isn't being received well online, as social users call his AI app, which allows customers to speak to deceased relatives, "disgusting." Worthy posted an ad for his app 2wai, and it was immediately torn apart by horrified onlookers. Wrote one X user, "a former Disney Channel star creating the most evil thing I've ever seen in my life wasn't really what I was expecting." Another elaborated, "Demonic, dishonest, and dehumanizing. If I die and you put words in my mouth I will curse you for all eternity. My value dies with me. I'm not a f---ing avatar." Worthy, who starred as Dez Wade on the Austin & Ally from 2011 to 2016, wrote to X that he sees 2wai as a way to "build a living archive of humanity, one story at a time." The ad…...
Seth Meyers Mocks Trump’s Unhinged Flirting in the Oval Office
5+ day, 14+ hour ago (501+ words) Seth Meyers has joked Donald Trump was so enamored of Zohran Mamdani last week that he somehow made asking to be called a "fascist" sound like a racy chat-up line. "That is the flirtiest I've ever heard anyone say, "You can call me a fascist'," the late-night comedian joked Monday night. "You can call me a fascist you can call me" I'll be whatever you want me to be!" "I've never seen Trump this smitten before," Meyers went on. "He is surrounded by so many charmless goons that the first time he got to hang out with someone that had a little charisma, he swooned like he was on a date with the varsity quarterback." The comic's comments follow after Trump and Mamdani, who had otherwise traded fierce insults ahead of the young Democrat's victory at the polls earlier this…...
