Apple TV’s Loot, which stars Minnie Riperton’s daughter Maya Rudolph (it’s amazing how many people still don’t know this about the former Saturday Night Live star) recently wrapped up its second season. Those who have watched love it laugh out loud comedy, choice music selection and overall feel good vibes, with plenty of mess. So it’s no surprise that it was also recently revealed that it was picked up for a third season. So now is as good a time as any to catch up on the first two seasons. —Alvin aqua Blanco

The 2024 Paris Olympics are officially underway, and throughout more than a century, the Games have given us some of the biggest moments that unite the world through sports and some that left a stain. One of those instances was the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, which, despite being the centennial event, the center of the games known as Centennial Park became the epicenter of a bombing that killed two and injured more than a hundred others. In the latest episode of How It Really Happened , host Jesse L. Martin leads viewers through interviews with journalists and law enforcement on how the bomber managed to detonate that bomb –and three others in Atlanta in the coming months– and evade capture for years.

The two-hour special debuted on CNN on July 21. —Bruce Goodwin II
