Two of Britain’s biggest stars won top honors at the BAFTA TV Awards on Sunday: Timothy Spall finally prevailed in the Best Actor race after three previous bids while Sarah Lancashire collected a bookend Best Actress award for the third and final season of “Happy Valley”; she’d won for season 2 back in 2017 and has a supporting prize for “Last Tango in Halifax” as well.
Backstage, Spall readily admitted, “I’m over the moon about this. I just am. So often the bridesmaid, today I catch the bouquet.” He then pondered the importance and meaning of awards ceremonies. “When you keep losing them, you think they’re a load of bollocks. And then you win and you think well, actually… Really, I suppose, in a way, they are both — they’re magnificent and they are an in-house thing. But it’s a profession — a dodgy, shaky, insecure profession that occasionally celebrates itself,...

My guest this week is Judith Light.
Last season, we saw her take home an Emmy for her guest role in Poker Face, in which she hilariously climbed a rose trellis while cleverly camouflaged in a natty pink and green pantsuit. Such is Light’s talent: from the humor of the aforementioned old folks’ home resident terrorist, to her heartfelt turn as matriarch Shelley Pfefferman in Transparent; from The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story, to ABC sitcom Who’s the Boss, she’s done it all. And then there are the multiple Tony wins…
Right now, Light can be seen in Max series Julia, in which she plays Blanche Knopf, the legendary publisher of Julia Child’s books, and in Starz’s horror-comedy show Shining Vale, Light is Courteney Cox’s fabulously passive-aggressive mother Joan.
Next up, Light will star opposite Billy Crystal, who also serves as EP,...

The South by Southwest debut of “Stormy” was not your typical Imagine Documentaries premiere.
About adult film star Stormy Daniels’ alleged affair with former President Donald Trump, the film drew an eclectic crowd that included porn stars and “Muppet” director-producer Frank Oz, who sat in the same row as Daniels and her entourage made up mainly of buff bodyguards. Dogs sniffed Austin’s Stateside Theater prior to the screening. After it unspooled, Daniels spoke to the SXSW audience, revealing that she first met “Stormy” exec producer Judd Apatow when he hired her for a small part in his 2005 film “40 Year-Old Virgin.” When she was a no-show due to a death in the family, Apatow sent her flowers and rescheduled her shoot date.
“I thought he would replace me,” Daniels, who would go on to appear in “Knocked Up” for the filmmaker, told the crowd, with director Sarah Gibson standing nearby.

Charles Osgood, the witty CBS News journalist who shepherded “CBS Sunday Morning” for more than two decades — a longer tenure than the show’s original host, Charles Kuralt — died Tuesday at 91 years of age after living for a period of time with dementia, according to CBS News.
He also hosted a durable radio-news segment, “The Osgood File,” between 1971 and 2017. The audio vignettes were heard four times each weekday morning on various stations across the U.S., and Osgood would sometimes analyze a news event, and, in other moments, provide rhyming commentary on the latest headlines. He would sometimes bid listeners farewell by telling them: “I’ll see you on the radio.”
“Short words, short sentences, short paragraphs,” Osgood was known to say. “There’s nothing that can’t be improved by making it shorter and better.”
He spent 45 years at CBS News before retiring in 2016. During his tenure, “Sunday Morning...

Hollywood likes to pretend that it’s in a constant state of self-improvement, and that the days of blackface and Mickey Rooney as Mr. Yunioshi are far in the past. But we aren’t that far removed from Zoe Saldaña playing Nina Simone, FX casting a white British actor as a budding Middle Eastern despot in Tyrant or Catherine Zeta-Jones playing notorious Colombian drug kingpin Griselda Blanco in Lifetime’s Cocaine Godmother.
I hope we can all agree that whatever divine and legal sanctions she deserved for being, by all accounts, quite monstrous at times, Griselda Blanco did not deserve the throughly bizarro accent and makeup job that accompanied Zeta-Jones’ performance in Cocaine Godmother.
If nothing else, Netflix’s six-part Griselda is an adequate representational corrective. Colombian actress Sofía Vergara plays Blanco, with a latex job that doesn’t really make her look like Griselda Blanco, but definitely makes her look like “Not Sofía Vergara.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains spoilers for the Season 2 finale of “Julia,” now streaming on Max.
“Julia” might put a strong focus on the food, but it’s a show that also has a lot more on its mind. The Max comedy series takes on a wide range of 1960s-era social issues, including feminism, homosexuality, civil rights and the anti-war movement.
“Julia” wraps up its second season Thursday with an eventful finale that includes filming an ambitious crustacean segment — in the “Lobster a l’Americaine” episode. After cooking and hitting farmer’s markets in the south of France with her friend and co-author Simone Beck (Isabella Rossellini), the Childs — played by Sarah Lancashire and David Hyde Pierce — spend time in Paris, then return to Boston where they must confront — and foil — an FBI investigation into Wgbh’s “subversive” activities, with help from station employees like producer Alice (Brittany Bradford).

Ambition paired with jealousy can be a dangerous cocktail. Especially when gender expectations are thrown into the mix.
Prestige offerings, from “Fair Play” and “Oppenheimer” to “Past Lives” and “Lessons in Chemistry,” have mined that tricky terrain this year. “Maestro” and the latest seasons of female-led “Julia” and “The Morning Show” have tackled it as well.
And while men suffer the slings and arrows of jealousy in several high-profile Oscar contenders, women arguably experience more fallout from it than their male counterparts. This goes for female characters who are ambitious themselves or those partnered with men who suck all the air out of the room, as in “Oppenheimer” and “Maestro.”
“Nobody likes an ambitious woman,” Sarah Lancashire’s Julia Child advises a female colleague in Season 2 of the Max series named for her, explaining why she credited men at Wgbh with advocating for “The French Chef” when the show had...

The most audacious aspect of Max’s “Julia” (now in its second season) is that Julia Child might not be the most accomplished real-life character in it. That might be Bebe Neuwirth’s Avis DeVoto, who, with husband Bernard, helped save the national forests from the U.S. government. Or maybe it’s Judith Jones (Fiona Glascott), who pulled a book out of a slush pile and thus became responsible for publishing “The Diary of Anne Frank,” among other accomplishments that include the English translations of Sartre and Camus. Then again, it might be Blanche Knopf (Judith Light), the powerhouse publisher who co-founded Knopf with her husband and helped elevate the mystery genre to high art by publishing everyone from Dashiell Hammett to Ross Macdonald.

As the special-effects makeup chief for “Saturday Night Live,” Louie Zakarian often has interesting demands put on his time. He once transformed Kate McKinnon into an offbeat mermaid. And he worked with Kyle Mooney to create the Baby Yoda character who made frequent appearances on “Weekend Update.”
These days, Zakarian gets even more outlandish asks, thanks to Sarah Sherman, the “SNL” cast member who might, during one week, ask him to devise a fake seagull that can be impaled in her torso while moving its legs, and, in another, order up a costume so she can dress as the oddball Six Flags mascot, but still get back to normal for a subsequent sketch 10 minutes later.
“I’ve been at the show for 29 years now,” says Zakarian. “I get some pretty crazy requests, but some of Sarah’s are really out there.”

There’s a scene in the 2010 film Eat Pray Love where Julia Roberts’s character Liz basks in the experience of eating a guilt-free pizza. It was an important character moment for her–and for many audience members. And whatever your specific dietary preferences or requirements may be, we hope that you’ll enjoy whatever your guilt-free “pizza moment” is this Thanksgiving, surrounded by friends and family (chosen or otherwise.)

“Food is the most temperamental actor you can have on set,” admits Christine Tobin, the food stylist on the Max series “Julia,” in a new, three-minute, behind-the-scenes feature that Gold Derby is debuting exclusively. She explains, “We want to make sure that the food will present beautifully, but last.” That is indeed a priority on a show that is centered on legendarily delicious meals. Sarah Lancashire, who delivers a stunning turn as iconic cook Julia Child, describes Christine as “the invisible me,” continuing, “I look like I’m doing it all, but I’m doing very little.” Watch the exclusive video above.
The new footage offers an inside look into how the delectable food, which plays a prominent role on the series about the beginning of Child’s television series “The French Chef,” goes from kitchen to camera. Showrunner Chris Keyser says that the show functions as a “collaboration between the kitchen and the writing,...

Some innovators try to devise a gadget that changes the world. Others hope to solve a global social ill. Sarah Sherman is eager to bring fake vomit on “Saturday Night Live” into the modern age.
The comic has gained notice on the long-running NBC late-night series for bizarre humor that blends gross-out jokes with a taste for the absurd. She’s been working with colleagues for months on new technology that would make the act of pretending to throw up onstage a lot easier — and more comfortable. For years, “SNL” cast members have relied on a tube tucked alongside their arm and usually inside a jacket sleeve that spews out liquid approximating vomit or blood. At just the right moment, the actor holds an arm close to the mouth, and the “vomit rig” does the rest. Dan Aykroyd used such a get-up in 1978 when playing Julia Child, who cut her hand open,...

If you’re of a certain age (or if you’ve ever spent too much time on Wikipedia), you likely know of the horrors that are about to befall the British royal family on Netflix’s “The Crown.” The sixth and final season of the Emmy-winning drama from Peter Morgan is back this week and covers the events of 1997 through 2005. The time-hopping first four episodes, which are streaming now on Netflix (the final six episodes will stream in December), depict the lead-up to Diana’s (Elizabeth Debicki) tragic death in a car crash in Paris and the subsequent reaction of her family, Queen Elizabeth II (Imelda Staunton) and the monarchy. Debicki, who was nominated for an Emmy for her performance in Season 5, gives yet another award-worthy turn as the show follows Diana in the months leading up to that fateful day, making “The Crown” the awards contender to watch this weekend.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the first three episodes of Julia Season 2.] If there’s a show that makes you want to eat while watching, it’s Max‘s deliciously fun Julia. Given the show is a comedy series about the early television career of infamous chef Julia Child (played with perfection by Sarah Lancashire), food does tend to come up once in awhile and is what the creative forces behind the show want it to be. “Our desire [is for] you to watch the show and feel as if you’re watching a souffle and then you realize that there’s something underneath it that’s presenting a little bit of a message,” says executive producer Chris Keyser. Based on the first three episodes of Season 2 that dropped today, juicy is a good word to describe what unfolds with Julia, salty husband Paul, Julia’s ambitious editor Judith Jones (Fiona Glascott), and ...

This scrumptious drama traces Julia Child’s emergence as culinary television trailblazer, but in the second season, the ebulliently eccentric chef (Sarah Lancashire), with the inimitable, octave-spanning warble, still struggles with the torrent of transformations unfolding in the socially turbulent 1960s. “Julia’s a path breaker and represents the entrepreneurial woman, but she’s also a product of her time. We wanted to capture those contradictions,” says Julia showrunner Chris Keyser. He adds that Julia learns “you can’t stand still” as the winds of change blow. Indeed, Season 2 finds each of the characters facing “the comedy and the drama of finding yourself running headlong into a world that you don’t fully understand anymore.” On the heels of The French Chef becoming a cultural sensation for once-sleepy Boston public television station Wgbh, Julia and husband Paul (David Hyde Pierce) head to France for the summer, where she and Simca...

Julia returns to Max on November 16 with its second season, and the titular character’s (Sarah Lancashire) trailblazing cooking show is and running on the air. Read on for a peek behind the scenes. Who Christine Tobin What She Does The food stylist with 30 years’ experience says she has enough Julia Child cookbooks to open her own library. And they come in handy for her job re-creating every dish the French Chef serves up on the comedic series. “I learned that [the recipes] were actually quite simple — Even the most elaborate or ambitious dishes, the way she writes them and approaches them is for the home cook,” says Tobin. “Although I’ve worked with food for 30 years, I’m instinctual with cooking and baking, but I’ve grown up following her recipes from an early age and they’re always foolproof.” But as easy as that sounds, one vital personal ingredient is paramount.

Season one of Max’s Julia introduced Sarah Lancashire as Julia Child, the iconic chef and author who taught American television audiences the art of cooking with The French Chef. The first season delved into Child’s personal and professional life while charting her ascension to TV star. Season two picks up the larger-than-life television personality in France, where she and her loving husband, Paul (David Hyde Pierce), are visiting Simca (Isabella Rossellini) and working on a new cookbook.
Series creator, writer, and executive producer Daniel Goldfarb revealed that they intended to go to France in season one, but that never transpired. Once the series was renewed for season two, there was never a question the story would include a trip to the South of France.
“We got Isabella Rossellini to play Simca Beck, Julia’s writing partner, and then just because of Covid and everything, it became too complicated.

One of the most anticipated TV shows this fall is Apple TV+'s "Lessons in Chemistry." Based on the bestselling novel by Bonnie Garmus, the series stars Brie Larson, Lewis Pullman, and Aja Naomi King in a story of a midcentury American woman who struggles to gain a foothold in a scientific world that refuses to respect her. With perfectly retro sets and costumes evoking the 1950s, it feels like the kind of show that could be based on real life - but it actually isn't.

Part Julia Child, part Marie Curie, with the movie-star glow of a Kim Novak, brilliant chemist Elizabeth Zott (the luminous Brie Larson) is ahead of her 1950s times. In Lessons in Chemistry, adapted for Apple TV+ from Bonnie Garmus’ bestseller, she channels her analytic genius into the kitchen when toxic sexism within a California college’s lab subjects her to humiliation from her patronizing colleagues. “You are just not smart enough,” says her smarmy boss (Derek Cecil). She’ll show him, and everyone else. When circumstances thrust her before a TV camera, where she demonstrates her culinary prowess as host of the bare-bones Supper at Six, her clinical approach — “Cooking is not fun. It is vital work” — is an unexpected hit, with everyone except the boorish station manager (Rainn Wilson as one of several too-obvious villains). Housewives are immediately enthralled, taking notes, seriously and literally, whenever Zott speaks. Her producer...
