If I hadn't inherited the apartment I moved into when I was six months old when my mother died I'd be homeless and my second home would be a second cardboard box.

HBO has released a trailer for the limited series "DTF St. Louis," starring Jason Bateman and "Stranger Things" alum David Harbour and premiering Sunday, March 1 at 9 pm, with episodes also streaming on HBO Max. In the trailer — which you can watch above — Bateman and Harbour play Clark and Floyd, a pair of bored suburban dads who stumble upon a hookup app called DTF St. Louis that promises to "spice up your life." (And if you're as innocent as Floyd is, "DTF" stands for "Down To F**k.") The dads are amazed by the tantalizing options the app offers — Floyd's screen name is "Rock Solid," he explains, "because I feel like I'm a pretty dependable person" — but Clark might already have his eyes on Floyd's wife, played by Linda Cardellini. Things quickly go south, though... which leads to a dead body. "No one's normal," an eyeliner-sporting Peter Sarsgaard declares. "It just looks that way from across the street." The seven-episode series, billed as "a love triangle between three adults experiencing middle-age malaise that leads to one of them ending up dead," is written and directed by showrunner Steven Conrad ("Patriot"). The cast also includes Richard Jenkins ("Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story"), Joy Sunday ("Wednesday"), Arlan Ruf, and Chris Perfetti ("Abbott Elementary").

By the end of episode 5 Pennytree and Duncan are on competing jousting teams and are in love and on their way to a scenic cottage.

Manhasset? A few minutes past the Queens/Nassau border along Northern Blvd. Did I get it right?

There's increasing talk of an Emmy nomination for best supporting furniture.

I like it!

As Doctor Derek Shepherd he saved lives. Now he's taking them... The first episode kept me interested. About to watch the second.

With Americans paying higher prices for everything from groceries to car insurance, savings are dwindling, credit card debt is mounting and household budgets are stretched thin. And so are their options to do something about it. Job insecurity and anxiety have spread with the hiring slowdown and waves of layoffs. Many workers are keeping the job they have rather than hunting for a new one, even if that means it's harder to negotiate better pay. Only 1 in 5 workers say their pay increased more than inflation over the past year. One in 3 say their pay kept pace with higher living expenses. “The American paycheck isn't keeping up with American life,” Eva Chan, career expert at Resume Genius, which makes resume builder software, said in a statement. More than half of workers have less than three months of living expenses saved up in the case of a layoff. Nearly a third only have enough to last one month and almost a quarter could hold out one to two months. The USA TODAY/SurveyMonkey Workforce Survey also found: 42% of workers say their current savings can cover three months or more of living expenses 16% have three to five months worth of living expenses saved up 12% have six to 12 months saved up 14% have more than 12 months saved up Social media is rife with tearful videos of how hard it has become to make ends meet. Some 14% of workers can’t or struggle to pay their bills each month, PwC found. Another 42% pay their bills with little or nothing left over for savings. PwC says that’s more than half of the workforce experiencing financial strain in 2025. “I have to work 40 hours a week just so I can have a place to live,” one woman said in one Instagram post. “Forty hours a week makes me $2000 a month and my rent is $1,660. So I work 40 hours a week so I can have a two-bedroom apartment and an extra $300 a month. Like, that doesn’t even cover my phone, internet, food.”

She looks like Diane Keaton in that pic.

Is that a moral judgement/observation?

So Walmart has gobbled up market share in everything else and now they are peddling flesh?!?!?

Ticketing giant StubHub says it received a surge in interest for Saturday night’s game, six times higher than average. The show, “Heated Rivalry,” on Crave and HBO Max, primarily focuses on a romance between two male hockey players who play for rival Montreal- and Boston-based teams. StubHub says the surge is 35 percent higher than in a typical matchup between the two teams. Finally, 82 percent of those who have purchased tickets are first-time buyers, three times more than usual. The growing interest hasn’t been limited to Canadiens and Bruins games. NHL single-game ticket sales on StubHub are up 82 percent compared to last season. The ticketing company also says it has seen a 40 percent increase in general interest for NHL tickets and a 75 percent surge in NHL ticket searches, as well as a 5 percent increase in first-time NHL ticket buyers since the show first aired on Nov. 28, 2025.

Linda Blair or Eve Plumb?

I guess I got confused because I thought she won a dramatic Emmy for the "Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!" episode.

What did Linda Blair, Julia Roberts, and Angelina Jolie ever do to you?

Sean Hayes: 'The Unknown' involves a 'tantalizing, seductive' cat-and-mouse chase APPLE.NEWS Actor and 'Smartless' podcast host Sean Hayes joins Morning Joe to discuss the one-man off-Broadway show 'The Unknown'.

Empty netters live streamed the three of them watching episode six from their apartments. Normally when they've done a live stream related to hockey about five minutes beforehand there were a few people in the "waiting room" waiting for the podcast to start, and it gradually increased as people trickled in. Five minutes before they started their live stream of episode six, there were 10,000 people in the waiting room. They are the podcast that Hudson Williams mentioned on the Tonight Show. (watch it on 1.5X... you can totally understand, & it saves time) Chris wore his glasses for the live stream. He said it was just in case Ilya asked him to put them on. I knew before I started watching that at some point Chris's Wi-Fi froze. It turned out to be just before Shane brought the sweater out to his mother so they had to stop right there and wait for him to get back. You can jump forward a lot at that point. It is really a fascinating watch because I practically know the episode by heart. All you see is the three of them watching it and commenting. You don't actually see the show and oh my God they got so emotional. Chris and Sean each had to step out of frame at one point because they were so overcome and Dan looked like he was gonna cry when he heard about Ilya's mother. They are hilarious. When Shane was blowing Eli against the window in the cottage Chris said I want the cheeks against the glass shot. When Ilya was in the lake he said I want lake sex; Dan said you keep making comments that show you have a horrible sex life… Water is a terrible lubricant. It turns everything into two sticky plastic bags. So they're happily watching as the boys come up from the lake and I'm saying to myself oh if they only knew what's coming… OH MY GOD! SOMEBODY'S THERE! WHO IS THAT? NOOOOOOOO! DAD WHERE ARE YOU GOING? THERE'S 15 MINUTES LEFT IN THE SEASON. THEY CAN'T BLOW IT UP LIKE THAT. Dan got so emotional watching it that when they did their review of the episode he said I just want you all to know I am drenched in sweat and he lifted up his arm and the pit stain went down to his ribs along his side and to his bicep on his sleeve.

I wound up watching reviews of all six episodes by two different hockey podcasts. After watching the one posted earlier in this thread, I watched their review of episode six and a few few days later decided to watch the rest so I googled hockey podcast heated rivalry and because I am either an idiot or Ilya's father (or both), it wasn't until I got up to the review of episode five and realized it was not the one I had previously watched that I realized I was watching different people. Each one had two hosts and their producer/engineer and all six men are straight and all six love the show about as much as any of us, which was fascinating to watch. All six love the "Skip" episode. One of them is called what chaos! and one of the hosts there looks a bit like a young Matt Damon when he's not wearing his glasses and the other is called empty netters and it's two screenwriting brothers who are based in LA named Dan and Chris. Their producer/engineer is Sean who is from Ireland and he made an interesting point. Ilya should easily be able to get citizenship on his own, which Sean knows about because he went through the process himself. Ilya would be considered a skilled worker since almost no one else can do what he does and he brings a lot of money into the economy and since he's been living in Boston now for eight years… Sean said athletes should have one of the easiest paths to citizenship. He also had the best line of the season when they reviewed episode four and Dan and Chris were talking about the end when Shane was banging Rose and Ilya was jerking off in the shower and they were obviously thinking about each other. Sean said Well, they were both looking into the camera, so I choose to believe they were both thinking about me. Dan looks kinda like Tim Daly in Wings so while watching Chicago Med tonight, I kept chuckling because Chris looks absolutely nothing like Steven Weber.
