Kody Brown is not about to make things easy on his estranged spouse.

Not in a new, and somewhat disturbing, sneak peek at this Sunday’s brand new episode of Sister Wives.

Courtesy of People Magazine, the clip features Christine sitting down with Kody in order to once again discuss her plans to leave him and move home to her native state of Utah.

This time, however, the topic turns to the couple’s 12-year old daughter, Truely.

“I think Truely is going to be fine. She’ll miss everyone of course and it’s going to be hard and taking her from Kody is hard,” Christine says at one point, adding of the unfortunate situation:

“It’s hard. Don’t get me wrong.”

Christine, of course, announced her separation from Kody in November 2021.

The longtime pair got (spiritually) married in 1994 are are parents to son Paedon, 24, as well as daughters Aspyn, 27; Mykelti, 26; Gwendlyn, 20; Ysabel, 19, and Truely.

Christine lived near Kody and her fellow sister wives in Flagstaff, Arizona… before their 26-year plural marriage came to an end just about a year ago.

Following the split, she relocated to Salt Lake City.

These Season 17 episode, however, were filmed long before that move.

“You can’t take her from me because we’ll have to have a shared custody, it will have to be 50/50,” Kody dares to tell Christine in the clip, referring to Truely.

This is an especially galling and shocking thing for Kody to say.

On last week’s episode of this same show, Kody admitted that he spends next to no time with his children.

“It’s not normal for me to babysit my kids,” he actually uttered on air.

“I’ve been working all my life. I was raised on a ranch, we were always busy.”

Christine also told People Magazine this summer that the final dagger in her relationship was when Kody refused to accompany her and their daughter, Ysabel, to New Jersey a couple years ago for the latter’s spine surgery.

“I really find it hard to stay with a guy who I don’t respect,” Christine told the aforementioned outlet of Kody and his behavior surrounding this procedure two years ago.

Translation?

Kody is an absentee father. And now he’s trying to claim half custody of Truely?!? The nerve.

“I’m not going to sit here and have her do this without objecting to it and saying we have to work something for custody,” Kody adds in the clip.

“I don’t know what that looks like, this discussion hasn’t happened.”

He continues as follows:

“The whole issue is from the beginning of this she didn’t ask me if I was okay if I didn’t stay at her house. She just told me not to. She didn’t ask me if it was okay if she moved my stuff out, she just did it.

“She didn’t ask me if it was okay if she moved to Utah and took Truely, she just told me she was going to do it.”

Christine, as you might expect, is VERY taken aback by this demand.

“I find it ironic that now he wants to be involved my kid’s lives now that I’m leaving. Now he wants 50/50 time with them,” she says on air.

“Well hell, he could have had 50/50 time with us this whole f–king time we lived here. If he wanted 50/50 he should have been around more.

“He doesn’t get 50/50. He hasn’t been around enough for that.”

Darn right, Christine!

Well said.

Sister Wives airs Sundays at 10/9c on TLC.

The Tristan Thompson-Maralee Nichols paternity case was settled way back in December of 2021.

But somehow, we keep learning new details that make Tristan look like even more of a jackass.

It seems that before Nichols filed her suit against Thompson, he and Khloe were planning to get married.

In fact, Khloe and Tristan had been engaged for nine months ahead of the lawsuit, meaning that Khloe was wearing Tristan’s ring while he was impregnating a personal trainer at his birthday party.

Making matters worse is the fact that Khloe rejected Tristan’s proposal in December of 2019.

He persisted, proposed again, and the two of them secretly got engaged in February of 2021.

But the NBA star just couldn’t keep it in his mesh shorts, and he had sex with Maralee just a few weeks after Khloe accepted his proposal.

All of this information comes to us courtesy of a new report from E! News.

And while the Kardshians may have taken their reality franchise to Hulu, E! remains one of the most reliable sources on all things Kard clan.

After Nichols’ son Theo was proven to be Tristan’s, Thompson finally came clean and penned a public apology to Khloe.

“Khloe, you don’t deserve this,” he wrote on social media pages.

“You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don’t deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you.”

After the birth of Tristan’s third kid, the world learned that he and Khloe were expecting another child via surrogate.

The child was conceived before Khloe received word of Tristan’s latest cheating scandal, and multiple sources have confirmed that the two parties are nothing more than civil co-parents these days.

“The baby was conceived via surrogate before it was revealed to Khloe and the public that Tristan was having a baby with someone else in December,” one insider told E! News.

Recent episodes of The Kardashians have shown Khloe dealing with the fallout from Tristan’s latest cheating scandal.

“We were in the best place we were,” she said of Tristan during a recent episode.

“So when we’re in the peak of our relationship, you go ahead and cheat on me? I don’t even want to know what you do in the worst of our relationship.”

The Nichols lawsuit marks the third time that Tristan was caught cheating on Khloe (that we know of).

For obvious reasons, Khloe’s friends and family are hoping that she’s now done with Tristan for good, and thankfully, that appears to be the case.

It was recently rumored that Khloe was dating Italian actor Michele Morrone, but it now appears that the two were merely friends.

We hope that whatever path she chooses going forward, it will lead Khloe far away from giving Tristan another chance.

Love in Paradise: The Caribbean viewers saw Aryanna Sierra and Sherlon McInnis’ obvious commitment issues for themselves.

Lust is not enough. But perhaps their shared child, little Odin, would be enough to turn this vacation bang into a marriage.

Evidently not.

Aryanna Sierra and Sherlon McInnis met in Jamaica a couple of years ago.

She was on vacation with her sister. She and Sherlon could not resist each other.

Aryanna’s return to the United States included a keepsake from her vacation: she was pregnant.

In January of 2021, Aryanna gave birth to baby Odin.

During Season 2, we all saw as Aryanna brought Odin to meet Sherlon for the first time.

It was not all good, however. Sherlon had not gotten a good start as a parent; he was both a financial and emotional deadbeat.

Sherlon’s priority seemed to be, well, Sherlon. He loved his life of freedom and singledom.

Part of the goal of this trip to Jamaica was finding out if she and Sherlon still had a spark between them.

As it turned out, they very much did.

But getting any hint of a real commitment out of Sherlon turned out to be an uphill battle at best.

He talked a big game (well, a medium-sized one) about doing things right for Odin. Mostly, that just meant hurting Aryanna’s feelings while not doing anything for their son.

Viewers hoped that, after Season 2, things would change. Unfortunately, the latest update indicates otherwise.

Sherlon posted this toxic clownery to Instagram.

While it’s clear that he didn’t write it, it’s full of red flags and outright misogyny.

(Pro-tip: don’t refer to a human being as “female.” Best case scenario, you’re a cop, and it only gets worse from there)

Aryanna posted a now-deleted Instagram comment (but the internet is forever, folks).

“He has done absolutely nothing for our son,” she accused. “He’s given no money, has bought him nothing.”

Aryanna warned: “don’t let him fool you. I could care less about having a relationship with this man, because he is the definition of dead beat.”

“He NEVER even calls to see his son,” Aryanna wrote. “I would never want to be with him.”

She added: “He thinks I should send him pictures and videos when he never sends anything or calls.”

Wow! It will be interesting to see if Aryanna sticks to that over time, or if they will reconcile.

Sometimes, deadbeat dads — especially those who are public figures — have an agenda when they request photos or videos.

It’s not always about sentiment. It can be about clout.

Many of us have seen these men post photos of children they haven’t seen in months, pretending that they took the pics.

Maybe that’s not what’s happening here.

Sherlon might genuinely want photos and videos for himself. Hell, maybe Aryanna’s comment, which she wrote in anger, was not entirely accurate. We don’t know.

What we do know is that this is a sad mess for all three of the people involved. Sherlon is going on dates, but finding a new gal won’t fix things.

This year’s Halloween candy tampering panic has just made its arrival, as the media spreads misinformation on the supposed threat of a new drug being slipped into children’s Halloween candy. Panic surrounding the potential of children receiving tampered Halloween candy occurs on a yearly basis, but it is largely an old urban legend. Every year, parents and the media spread myths about the possibility of drugs, razor blades, glass, or sewing needles being covertly handed out in children’s Halloween candy from the hands of some ill-wishing stranger.

The Halloween candy tampering panic is believed to have first started around the 1970s. Two children’s deaths during the decade were initially erroneously reported to have been caused by Halloween candy. In 1970, Kevin Toston, a boy from Detroit, died from heroin poisoning. His family claimed that the drug had been sprinkled over his Halloween candy. However, it was later revealed that he had ingested a heroin capsule he found at his Uncle’s house.

Welcome back to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills recap. Last week, Lisa Rinna told the world about Kathy Hilton’s epic meltdown at a private club in Aspen. Rinna took Kathy home in a sprinter van. According to Rinna, Kathy continued to rage, even when they were alone at Kyle Richards’ house.

But there weren’t any cameras at the club, or in the van, or at Kyle’s house. So, all we have is Rinna’s word for it. Could Rinna be targeting Kathy for a storyline? I think the truth is buried somewhere in the middle.

Erika Bares Her Soul

Erika Jayne shares her virtual visit with her therapist. Erika has been going to therapy for three years. Her therapist advises her to let go of the image of the husband that she believed that she had in Tom Girardi.

While Tom could be sweet, he could also be mean. Erika believes that her estranged husband didn’t believe that he had to follow the rules. “I want to believe that it got away from him, and not that he orchestrated it this way,” Erika stated. This is the most vulnerable that I have ever seen Erika. She admits that she is scared.

Pretty Messed Up

Erika hosts a fun Pretty Mess Hair pop-up shop for her friends and their stylists. The press is already asking questions about Kathy’s behavior in Aspen. Sutton Stracke shows up to support Erika because she wants Erika to succeed.

Dorit Kemsley tells Rinna that Kathy remembers exactly what happened in Aspen and that she is upset about the way she behaved. Rinna is pissed because Kathy tried to keep her from speaking out.

Kathy texted Rinna, “Please please do not say anything we discussed. Otherwise, it will make a huge scene that everyone gets dragged into. No bueano.” (Spelled incorrectly, as Rinna noted.)
Another text to Rinna read, “Please it goes further than you would want to know. Silence is golden. I am staying silent,” Kathy wrote with heart emojis.

Kathy also went on Instagram Live and denied that the Aspen incident happened. Rinna, once again, was annoyed.

Rinna and Dorit fill in the rest of the RHOBH ladies. Kathy became enraged at the club when the DJ refused to play “Billie Jean.” A manager told Kathy to go back to Los Angeles. Diana Jenkins tipped the manager $200 to keep it quiet.

Sheree Zampino mentions that Kathy was upset and agitated outside of Kemo Sabe earlier that day. Ding! Now Rinna realizes that she set off the meltdown by ordering Kendall Jenner’s tequila instead of Kathy’s brand.

While Rinna won’t tell the ladies exactly what Kathy said about them, she happily runs it down in her confessional. Kathy allegedly called Sutton and Crystal Kung Minkoff  “pieces of sh*t” and said they should be axed from the show. She supposedly called Dorit a “stupid, useless idiot.” Kathy was upset that she has to be around her co-stars.

Rinna has been sending Kathy prayers and blessings because she needs them. Oh, please.

Sutton’s Southern Hospitality

Sutton invited Erika over for lunch. She is serving Popeye’s Chicken, but on the fancy china. And she is serving up either sweet tea or champagne. Sutton doesn’t want to see Erika striking out at people. She suggests that Erika use some compassion in her voice. They agree that “victim” is a trigger word for Erika. Erika just wants to be heard, and Sutton understands that.

Is That An Apology?

Kyle is anxious while waiting for Kathy to arrive. Kathy makes a joke about coming in from the ranch to apologize. That is just…odd.

Kyle and Kathy’s relationship had been strained by Kyle’s television show, American Woman. When Kyle’s husband, Mauricio Umansky, left Rick Hilton’s real estate firm to start The Agency, it was another source of tension.

Kathy apologized for venting and admitted that she didn’t think that Kyle would find out. I guess that makes it okay, then! Kyle asked why her sister said such horrible things about her. Kathy blamed the altitude, the wine, and being tired as reasons for her temper tantrum.

When Kyle said that Kathy’s words make it feel like she hates her, Kathy flips it back on Kyle. She accuses Kyle of not spending time with family and not answering her phone calls. Kathy says that she is proud of Kyle, and all her achievements, adding that their mother would be, too. It means a great deal to Kyle to hear the words, but Kathy’s actions contradict those sentiments.

Rinna Takes All

Conveniently, Rinna is on the way over to Kyle’s house. Kathy makes the same jokey apology to Rinna, but Rinna is all business. First of all, Kathy is wearing the same shirt that she was wearing the night of her verbal tirade, which aggravates Rinna.

Kathy apologizes and denies having a temper. Rinna wants to know what made Kathy say such terrible things. She wants Kathy to take responsibility for her actions and get some help. Kathy told Rinna, “I feel you can be very unkind, too.” Then she explains how a good friend is dying of cancer and starts crying.

After a while, Rinna tells Kathy that she isn’t going to get away with gaslighting her. In her confessional, Kathy brought up how Rinna became physical with her sister, Kim Richards, in Amsterdam.

Rinna asks where Kathy’s “black heart” comes from. Kathy is done and leaves. Kyle feels stuck in the middle and like Rinna pushed Kathy. As for Rinna? She looks pretty pleased with herself.

Survivor 43 continues its strong start this week, following up last week’s two-hour Premiere Episode with a fun and unpredictable 90-minute Episode 2. The additional time is important this early in the season, as it gives us a chance to become more invested in this group of contestants, and it allows the producers even more room for character-building and story-telling.

But sometimes, characters on Survivor don’t need any help at all being “built,” they simply are “characters” already in real life. This week’s episode belonged once again to Cody Assenmacher (just love that last name), who I pointed out last week as being the one person that really was putting out some “future All-Star” vibes. He just seems unique…he may be an amalgam of other players we’ve seen on the show before, but you can’t quite put your finger on what makes him so incredibly compelling. Sure, every episode of Season 43 so far has now featured a shot of the “LIVIN” tattoo on Cody’s ass(enmacher), which is a trend I could do without. But for every “cliff-diving” segment they’ve given him thus far, they’ve also shown him to be a savvy strategic and social player. His “Beware Challenge’ journey this week is an instant classic Survivor “moment,” a sequence that will go down in history and become even more legendary the further that Cody goes in the game. And the move also has “new era” written all over it, with the Survivor producers saving the reveal of his accomplishment until during the reading of the votes, for maximum dramatic effect (a structural move that would never have happened in past “old era” Survivor).

Of course I’m referring to Cody‘s personal mission impossible. It all started with his Red Tribe getting cremated during this week’s Immunity Challenge, with Nneka taking most of the blame for their team loss. It was Nneka after all, who didn’t even remove one of the puzzle pieces from the bag that she was responsible for, and she did struggle noticeably much worse than the rest of her tribe during the earlier, physical portion of the challenge. But we were reminded that Dwight lost his vote last episode, by choosing to risk it and losing out – by chance – on the Immunity Idol that ultimately ended up with Gabler over at the Yellow Tribe. Dwight’s vote not in play, that means that a three-person majority could control the vote at the Red Tribe’s first Tribal Council, and Cody, Jesse and Nneka all seemed locked in to vote out Justine.

But then Cody went out and found a “Beware Advantage.” Remember, these contestants have now seen Seasons 41 and 42, so Cody had to have known that if he decided to open it up, that he was probably going to lose his vote until he was able to pull off some sort of ridiculous challenge or mission. In the last two seasons, the tasks would not have even been possible to complete before heading to Tribal that same night, as they required the players to say ridiculous sayings out loud during the challenges, in order for their Idols to activate. But hey, LIVIN. The go-lucky adventurer was not thinking in that moment how important his vote was, or what damage it may do. He was going to open that thing up and read it and that’s exactly what he did.

What came next was nothing short of amazing. How the heck was he going to pull off getting beads – willingly given to him – from each of his tribe mates? Cody‘s ally, Jesse, one of the other stand-out fan-favorites thus far this season, brought up the palm frond hat that Cody had made earlier…those beads would be a lovely addition to them and the perfect cover. Even this idea alone had to feel like absolutely striking gold for Jeff Probst and the producers…they could not have possibly anticipated a player making a palm frond hat, and must have wondered exactly how a player would have to have gone about collecting these needed beads to form the Immunity Necklace. But Cody provided that gold. Even with the idea in motion, it seemed impossible that Cody would be able to get all of these beads in the short time before Tribal. But he needed to. It was drawing rocks time at Tribal if he didn’t figure it out.

The viewer headed off to Tribal thinking that Cody was able to score all of the beads except for Noelle‘s…and that we were headed to rocks. Imagine how boring it would have been had they shown him getting all the beads ahead of time? We, as viewers, are not used to being hoodwinked – blindsided, if you will – ourselves. But oh does it feel good when done the right way. Tonight’s episode was the right way, a reveal that didn’t seem like a manipulation, and one that was appreciated for the drama and tension that it brought.

On the receiving end of this move was “spider queen” Justine, whose real blunder seemed to be her inability to connect with Jesse. She was correct in saying that Jesse was in the middle and was the “swing” vote, but the way she approached him about it was a bit less than cordial. Big kudos to Jesse on the move, because Justine could have definitely developed into a larger strategic threat, and he made the move to serve his own game, despite what his “Island Spouse” Dwight might have thought about it. Dwight on the other hand was also blindsided by the move, and I know emotions run high out there, especially right after a Tribal blindside, but I don’t really like his “we’ll talk about this later” comment to Jesse on the way out. Like, Jesse is in trouble and needs a talking to? Dwight is the one that is in trouble now, and instead of trying to repair his relationship with Jesse, it looks like next week’s episode teases that Dwight is instead going to stay bitter towards Jesse. He and Noelle are both in big trouble as they find themselves now on the wrong side of the numbers, and with Cody sporting his one-of-a-kind, beaded palm frond Immunity Crown.

We didn’t get much insight this week into the Blue Tribe (though we did get another great flashback sequence giving us a bit more information on Geo, and how Geo and Ryan might be a formidable two-some). The other drama this week was over at the Yellow Tribe, with the spotlight mostly still on Gabler. Yes, he’s older than the rest of the contestants this season, but the show went out of its way to show the physical toll it was taking on Gabler specifically. Was this a bit of foreshadowing? Or just an attempt to throw us off Gabler being a post-merge player? His tribe – well, mostly Elie – also had issues with him taking out their newly won fishing spear, and they all secretly pondered the power of the Idol that they all know he possesses. Well, they went past the point of “pondering” when Jeanine actually went into Gabler’s personal bag to track down and re-read the parchment that came with the Idol. Does the Idol have power for the first two OVERALL Tribal Councils? If so, then Gabler’s Idol would now be useless. Or, could it be used for the first two Tribals that Gabler is actually at? They clarified it for us that it is actually the latter, meaning that Gabler is indeed safe at his next Tribal Council…should he choose to play it (and why wouldn’t he? He is Gabler after all!). Jeanine and Elie seem to cocky to realize that they really did make what seems to be a boneheaded move in voting out Morriah last week…the three guys, Gabler, Sami and Owen, may not talk a lot of game but they do know that they need to stick together strategically, which only spells trouble for the girls, who seem to be severely underestimating each of the guys, albeit in different ways. As next week’s preview shows, Sami tattles on Jeanine to Gabler about rifling through his personal belongings, so things are about to get a bit uglier over at Team Yellow.

Episode Take-Away: What can you say about Cody? About this “new era” of Survivor? First of all, I wish that each week could be 90-minutes at minimum…I just love having that feeling of watching Survivor episodes sort of “breathe.” Cody is a big personality, but so far has avoided becoming a big target, which is impressive. Tucked underneath the big shield he provides though, is Jesse and Nneka. They could be a formidable and “under-the-radar” pair should they go far in the game. I just love when Survivor starts off each season by sending different tribes to Tribal Council, so we can get enamored with each of the tribe’s dynamics as soon into the season as possible. Nothing personal, but here’s hoping the Blue Tribe meets up with Jeff Probst at the end of next week’s episode! If they don’t and it is one of the other tribes, I think that Elie or Jeanine could be in serious trouble at Yellow, and Dwight could be the next target at Red. Of course, this is Survivor, and there are challenges to be had, and other advantages and twists to be discovered between now and then. But so far I am getting a really good vibe from Season 43: No clear-cut villains, but so many people to root for, and that’s really all you can hope for.

You know that they say: fourth time’s a charm. Real Housewives of Orange County’s Jim Edmonds just got married for the fourth time this week, and he’s hoping this is the one that sticks. Although walking down the aisle isn’t new to Jim, he and his latest bride, Kortnie O’Connor, spared no expense. The former baseball player and Real Househusband of Orange County held a destination wedding in Italy to tie the knot, and People covered all of the details.

Kortnie and Jim got engaged in July of last year, just three months after he finalized his divorce from former Real Housewife Meghan King Edmonds. At the time of their engagement, Kortnie acknowledged that this wasn’t her fiance’s first time at bat. She told People, “As I’m sure everyone knows, this isn’t Jim’s first time around. So we just wanted to make it about enjoying everybody — all of our close friends and family. An adventure for everybody to enjoy, not another wedding in the church.”

Over a year later, it sounds like quite an adventure was had. Jim, Kortnie, and their 32 guests traveled to Lake Como, Italy, and held their ceremony at a 19th-century villa. After saying, “I do,” Jim and Kortnie took a sunset boat ride around the lake, snapping pictures while their guests enjoyed a cocktail hour. Later, they dined on Italian food, and a DJ took them into the night with some tunes.

“This was truly a dream wedding in a beautiful location surrounded by some of the most important people in our lives,” Kortnie said about the wedding, which was her first. “It was more than I could have ever imagined.”

Although Jim was just served with a temporary restraining order from his ex-wife Meghan earlier this month, he was over the moon and feeling optimistic about his wedding ceremony with Kortnie. He said, “The best part of the wedding is I now get to spend the rest of my life with Kortnie.” He continued, “For the first time in my life, I finally understand true happiness.”

Good for Jim, who’s 52, for finally understanding true happiness. For Kortnie’s sake, let’s hope this marriage goes smoother than the last few.

The latest episode of Sister Wives was truly heartbreaking.

And that’s because during the episode, Meri Brown learned that her beloved mother, Bonnie, had passed away.

During the episode, we saw that Bonnie was in the hospital and had taken a turn for the worse, and we saw Meri leave for Utah so that she could be with her.

Unfortunately, she didn’t make it — she got a phone call in the car that her mother had already passed away.

The interesting thing though was that although she had a husband and (at the time) three sister wives, she made that drive alone.

She did say that she’d called Kody, but of course he didn’t go with her — no one on the show addressed why, but it’s not that difficult to imagine the reason.

Now, Meri is addressing the episode in an Instagram post.

And it’s getting a pretty big reaction.

In the post, Meri shared a photo of her with her mother, and she shared that while she didn’t watch the episode while it aired, she’d seen it before and she remembered every bit of that day.

“Being alone in my car and on the way to her, praying I would get there before it was too late, was hard enough as it was,” she recalled, “but then to get the call that she had passed was truly heartbreaking.”

She thanked Sister Wives fans for reaching out with condolences, and she wrote some thoughts about her late mother.

“My mom was TRULY a one of a kind human. Kind and giving beyond measure,” she shared.

“She made everyone she met feel uniquely special, and no one ever went away from her without a hug.”

She said that Bonnie had loved living and working at her bed and breakfast in Utah for the past few years

“She was always the kind of person who would welcome people into her home with open arms and a giving heart, making them feel at home, and she continued that at the b&b,” she wrote.

“I only hope to carry that spirit with me as I continue with future plans for the b&b, making everyone who enters feel welcome, loved, special, and worthy, just like my mom would have done.”

It was a lovely tribute, but her followers had some things to get off their chests about how things had played out.

“That was a very hard episode to watch,” one person told her. “You should not have been alone at that time.”

“Broke my heart watching you all alone!!!!” another comment read. “I cried and cried … I hope you find someone so you know what it really feels like to have that from a partner.”

One person said “I better not hear one more word of criticism for how she has treated ANYONE in that family again after witnessing this episode.”

“There is no way Meri wouldn’t have been there for any of her sister wives in the same situation. The only reason she didn’t got to Janelle’s mom’s funeral was because Kody went and asked her not to.”

Yet another comment read “I was disappointed that you had to drive all alone. Such a big family yet alone in that difficult time. I felt your pain.”

The comments go on and on like this, with Meri’s followers telling her over and over that she shouldn’t have been alone.

And they all have good points — Meri had always been following Kody’s strict COVID rules, so it’s strange that he didn’t go with her.

Robyn had been following the rules as well, as had her older children, so one of them could have gone along for support.

Even though Meri has been trying so hard for so long to get on Kody’s good side, this could have been a moment to put that aside and let Christine or Janelle help her out.

But instead, she had to get a phone call in the car by herself that her mother had died, and that’s just truly awful.

We would say that hopefully Kody saw this episode and realized that he seriously dropped the ball here, but that would require him having a level of self-awareness that he’s shown time and time again that he simply does not have.

As it is, we can just hope that Meri feels at peace with how things happened.

Which is unexpected, as when the film was released it was met with mixed reviews and a middling box office haul. But Hocus Pocus soon gained a second life thanks to seasonal airings on the Disney Channel and ABC Family, and the film quickly grew a cult following, becoming a Halloween staple and fan-favorite. Now, those millennials who grew up with the film now have kids of their own, and the Disney reboot machine has finally given us Hocus Pocus 2, 29 years later.

Hocus Pocus 2 brings us back to Salem, where a new group of teens unwittingly conjure the wicked Sanderson sisters by lighting the black flame candle on Halloween night. High schoolers Becca (Whitney Peak) and Izzy (Belissa Escobedo) are celebrating Becca’s 16th birthday as they always have, with a spooky séance in the woods. But they are doing so without their other bestie Cassie (Lilia Buckingham), who has ditched her friends to spend more time with her doofus boyfriend Mike (Froy Gutierrez). After the girls light the black flame candle, the Sanderson sisters, Mary (Kathy Najimy), Winifred (Bette Midler), and Sarah (Sarah Jessica Parker), return in full force, ready to wreak havoc on Salem.

As far as F/F fandom ships go, Overwatch’s Pharmercy is the stuff of legends. Since 2016, there’s been an endless supply of art, comics, videos, and memes about everyone’s favorite airborne DPS Pharah and her flying healer, Mercy. Overwatch 2 is out on October 4, and a brand new voice line throws some meat to Pharmercy shippers who want their favorite hero combo turned into a real coupling.

Pharah flies the friendly skies in Overwatch, raining rockets from above and dive bombing the game’s squishier heroes. She gets a massive boost to her combat capabilities through Mercy, who can heal her and provide her damage buffs. In return, Mercy can glide to Pharah and fly above the battlefield, surveying the frontline and fleeing to safety as need be. It’s a great amount of gameplay synergy, hence the six-year-old Pharmercy shipping community.
