But for the people of Bodkin, Ireland—the titular, fictional shoreside town in Netflix’s new mystery series Bodkin, premiering May 9—the true-crime podcast wave hasn’t even begun to crest. That’s why, when popular podcast host Gilbert Power (Will Forte), his researcher Emmy (Robyn Cara), and crotchety investigative reporter for The Guardian Dove (Siobhán Cullen) step foot in Bodkin, they’re welcomed with wide-eyed fascination.That is, until the trio starts poking around, looking to cover a decades-old cold case that still haunts the town and its colorful characters. When local threads are pulled, their once-knotted history unspools, revealing dark and absurd secrets. Bodkin takes pleasure in stringing viewers along, winding itself past red herrings and red-haired residents who all have something to hide. While the series sometimes mirrors the pace of Bodkin’s small-town life too literally, drifting aimlessly to fill time, its enthusiastic cast—led by the terrifically cast Forte and Cullen—keep Bodkin stimulating enough to be more than just a knockoff Only Murders in the Building. Instead, it skewers the macabre voyeurism of true-crime podcasting, implicating its viewers just as much as its characters, to surprisingly refreshing results.After three seasons of Only Murders, last year’s Based on a True Story, 2019’s Truth be Told, and a quietly vicious Portlandia sketch, television seems to have reached its limit for shows about making true-crime podcasts. You’d be forgiven for wanting to avoid Bodkin entirely based on its stale premise alone. (You can practically hear the pitch meeting at Netflix now: “Three people investigate a crime to make a podcast—this time, in Ireland!”). But the show, at the very least, anticipates its audience’s exhaustion—something other shows don’t typically contend with.Read more at The Daily Beast.

NetflixIt’s not easy being a mom—just ask Brooke Shields’s character, Lana, in Netflix’s newest rom-com, Mother of the Bride. One minute, your daughter is holding you close and insisting that she can’t have her wedding without you, and the next, she’s threatening to throw you out of her big day in Thailand because you’ve upset her “corporate parent” by skinny dipping at their resort. Mothers, you’ve all been there before, right? Anyone…?On the surface, Mother of the Bride follows Lana as she tries to process the fact that her daughter, Emma (Miranda Cosgrove), is engaged to a man she never met. To make things even spicier, the groom to be, RJ (Sean Teale) also happens to be the progeny of Lana’s grimiest college ex, Will (as played by certified zaddy Benjamin Bratt)—a not-so-fun fact the entire group finds out together when they arrive in Thailand for the destination wedding. Sadly, none of this is really the meat of the story.It turns out, Emma’s most complicated relationship is not with her brilliant perfectionist of a mother, or with her charming but possibly performative fiancé, but with her own deep desire to become… *checks notes* a brand ambassador? Oh, boy.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Mario Tama/Getty ImagesRobert F. Kennedy on Wednesday followed up the news of a “worm” that was discovered dead inside his brain in 2010 by boasting that he could eat five or six and still beat Donald Trump and Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential race.The dead parasite, dubbed a “worm,” was initially reported by The New York Times on Wednesday. Kennedy described the incident in a 2012 deposition reviewed by The Times. The incident occurred in 2010, when Kennedy was suffering from memory loss. Doctors initially diagnosed it as a brain tumor. It was only as he was packing for his procedure when he received a call from a doctor at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital that believed his issues were “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Kennedy said in the deposition.His campaign assured Reuters that the incident occurred ten years ago and that the independent candidate was fit for the White House. Kennedy spokeswoman Stefanie Spear said he “traveled extensively in Africa, South America, and Asia in his work as an environmental advocate, and in one of those locations contracted a parasite. The issue was resolved more than 10 years ago, and he is in robust physical and mental health.”Read more at The Daily Beast.
