Tonight at 8p on NBC’s Chicago Med, Oliver Platt gives an Emmy-Worthy performance as Dr. Charles. It is the first of two episodes that are centered on him.
The episode starts off with him working at a suicide hotline and taking a call from a man who wants to end his life. After the call is over, he is left frazzled by the conversation. And that is just the beginning of his bad week.
Next up, he gets into a fight with his youngest daughter, Anna (Hannah Riley), and they both say things they don’t mean. The fight starts over something he learned about her personal life, and he won’t let it go. How far will he go to find out more about what she is hiding from him?
Maybe work will be easier for him? Not at all. There is a male patient who might have been raped, but won’t admit it. A woman comes demanding invasive surgery to find out what is causing her extreme stomach pain, even though there seems to be nothing showing up on any of the tests. Finally, there is a little girl who is acting like a cat and won’t act like herself.
It is a bad, bad, bad day. And when you have a day like that, it is enough to make even a psychiatrist go mad. Is that what happens to him? We will find out next week in the conclusion of The Book of Charles.
Platt is my favorite part of the medical drama because I am a long-time fan of his work. So maybe I am biased, but the performance he gives in this two-part storyline had me the most emotionally invested in the series’ run, and I have seen every episode. It is just that well-written, directed, and acted (Is this a word?)!
The Simpsons characters’ colors are bright and perfect for makeup! So after 37 seasons, a makeup company is finally giving Marge, Lisa, and Maggie their own collection, which includes matte lip balms, a makeup sponge, eyebrow glue, liquid blushes, powder highlighters, and an eyeshadow palette. But the best part is the packaging!
For $99, you can get the entire NYX Cosmetics limited-edition collection, or you can buy the products individually.
Megan Thee Stallion just joined the Broadway production of Moulin Rouge! The Musical as Harold Zidler on March 24th, but yesterday she had to leave the musical performance before the curtain call because she was feeling ill. She was so sick that they rushed her to the hospital. However, it was unclear what was ailing her.
Today, the singer gave an update on her health. “Last night was a real wake-up call for me. I’ve been pushing myself past my limits lately, running on empty, and my body finally said enough,” she wrote on social media. “It honestly scared me. I thought I was gonna faint on stage, I really tried to push through my performance but I just couldn’t. Hotties I wanna be real with y’all because you mean everything to me and I hate letting yall down 🥺 I just need one day to rest, reset, and take care of myself the way I should have been..I’ll be right back on that stage Thursday, stronger, clearer, and ready to give you 100% the way you deserve. Thank you for always riding with me and loving me through everything.”
Hopefully, she will be up to being back on stage tomorrow. But if she needs the extra time, her fans will understand. Get well, and keep dazzling the audiences!
Fun Fact. She is the first actress to play the owner of the nightclub. The role has previously been played by Titus Burgess, Boy George, Bob the Drag Queen, and Wayne Brady.
I never thought about this until now, but The Tiger King is the perfect subject for a Horror movie. So six years after it debuted on Netflix, we are finally getting one with Joe Exotic as the lead.
Mr. Exotic wakes up to his zoo completely destroyed – animals have escaped, enclosures are torn apart, and his home lies in ruins. As predators roam free and chaos spreads, he must uncover who is responsible for the devastation. While the animals kill, he seeks justice – no matter the cost.
I don’t care how much the DVD costs on SRS Cinema. I have to have this movie because the visual effects make it look Oscar-worthy!
