On Love Island USA, a show purportedly about pursuing heterosexual romance in an obnoxiously-lit villa in Fiji, the two biggest stories this season are not about sordid, spontaneous hookups; devastatingly hot bombshells in skimpy bikinis leaving broken hearts in their wake; or what scandalous behavior the night vision cameras have caught on tape.

AMC's 'The Vampire Lestat' Is Worth Your TimeTrump's 'Great American Fair' Is A Big Fat Bust

I was enthralled when I first read Interview with a Vampire, so I've wondered if it could be adapted to the small screen when the bidding war started for Rice's material. The first two season's of the AMC series were a triumph. Enter season three.

Full of decadent, often gleeful violence, thorny moral questions about truth and memory, and a central relationship that’s as frequently toxic as it is desperately romantic, the series’s first two seasons are an utter delight, and a powerful reminder of the great things that genre television is capable of.read more
