Dan Levy on comedy

This is a clip on Instagram from an interview Dan Levy did on Q with Tom Power where he explains the difference between taking the easy route of creating a joke that punches down vs observational humor – something he learned from Eugene Levy and Catherine O’hara.

Patrick Radden Keefe is everywhere right now

Which is great. His newest book London Falling is one of 2026’s best books (which A24 is adapting and it just got picked for Stephen Colbert’s book club) and he has a new piece in the New Yorker! The Car-Crash Conspiracy: High-speed accidents, crooked lawyers, and poor people desperate for cash—it was the kind of scheme that could have been cooked up only in the Big

Nyle DiMarco just gave a quick history lesson on how eleven Deaf men made NASA's Artemis II mission possible

You can watch Nyle DiMarco’s video on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. You can also read Forbe’s write up on it: Eleven Deaf Men Got Us To The Moon. That Talent Pool Is Still Untapped

The Miniature Wife (Peacock)

This was not on my anticipated list of adaptations coming out in 2026 and yet it is definitely one of my favorite shows this year. The 10-episode series is based on a story in Manuel Gonzales’ short story collection The Miniature Wife and Other Stories. Elizabeth Banks and Matthew Macfadyen play a couple, Lindy and Less Littlejohn, who seemingly have it all. Lindy’s first novel won the Pulitzer and Less is about to revolutionize our food system. The problem is that what is really going on in their lives is a massive power struggle and during a fight Less’ current invention ends up shrinking Lindy to 6 inches. The second part of his formula—restoring what he’s shrunk back to its original size— isn’t complete yet because so far the items explode during testing. Whoopsie!

This is a dramedy with past and present storylines showing how the couple got to where they are right now, their college daughter’s relationship with them and finding her place in the world, and the way Lindy and Less slowly become unhinged and go to war with each other—think a mixture of Honey I Shrunk the Kids with War of the Roses. I enjoyed the balance of drama and laughs, the clever way they designed objects for Lindy to use while her current miniature size, the focus on the publishing industry, and the twists.

Kid 90 (Hulu)

This is a documentary with an unusual premise that ends up unfolding in ways the creator didn’t foresee. Soleil Moon Frye was a child actor who became very well known for her role as Punky Brewster. During her teen years she recorded everything––literally always had a camcorder with her, recorded phone calls, kept every answering machine tape, and every single diary. Now, in her 40s, she questioned whether everything she remembered from her teen years was accurate and decided to go through the footage. While this starts as a look at what the industry does to child actors, it’s also a look at the ‘90s many teenagers experienced.

It’s fascinating to see teenagers being themselves while knowing they're being recorded because there wasn’t the fear of it “going viral” or being posted on line by anyone the way that exists now. It was the last generation to grow up without 24/7 cell phones, the internet as it is now, and children growing up in front of large audiences was only done through Hollywood.

Even as a child Soleil Moon Frye was a person who felt deeply and thought about the world she lived in which is what kept this doc from veering into a vanity project. Instead she ends up having to reckon with losing more than a handful of friends to drugs and suicides who she now, upon rewatching the tapes, realizes had clearly been struggling. She also opens up about being assaulted by a boyfriend, which is documented in her diary.
