Of the ’90s Trek series to get their proverbial flowers in the franchise’s streaming renaissance, Deep Space Nine has arguably been the show that, much as it was in the ’90s, has been treated as a bit of an underdog. With a few nods here and there, and a few voice-over returns in Lower Decks, it’s not been entirely brushed aside, but it’s not exactly on the same level of things like Star Trek: Picard becoming a big Next Generation follow-up, or Prodigy being a loving tribute to Voyager and Captain Janeway’s legacy in particular. But if Paramount’s Star Trek future were to include some kind of Deep Space Nine love letter, maybe don’t include a Miles O’Brien appearance among the plans.

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Alien: Romulus. Alien: Romulus is the seventh mainline movie in the Alien franchise, and it’s a solid film. Directed by Fede Alvarez (Evil Dead), Romulus has some great set pieces, bringing the xenomorphs back to their franchise roots. However, it also has some extremely low points. The film struggles when referencing the previous movies, notably Alien and Aliens. While Romulus takes place between those two movies, the references that are the most egregious parts of the film are the ones that feel too forced.

As the star of TV's Dr. Kildare (NBC, 1961-1966), Richard Chamberlain was a heartthrob for millions of female fans in America and the world. Decades later, the actor transformed into the charismatic king of TV-mini-series with acclaimed productions like the originalShogun (NBC, 1980), and The Thorn Birds (ABC, 1983, in which he played a sexually repressed priest).

The "Alien" movie saga has had its ups and downs. While entries like "Alien: Covenant" and "Prometheus" have received their share of moderately positive attention, the first two movies remain the franchise's brightest gems. Fans of Xenomorph horror would no doubt love to see the first brilliant entry in the series since 1986's "Aliens." Unfortunately, it's still unclear whether that fine day is looming on the horizon. The first reactions to Fede Álvarez's upcoming "Alien" movie are now here — and while many are positive, there's enough division that it remains to be seen whether "Alien: Romulus" will blow you away.

The mantis shrimp is one tough customer. Beautiful and deadly are two words you don’t typically use to describe shrimp, but the mantis shrimp is definitely in a class of its own; earning a reputation as the ‘savage boxer of the sea’ and one of the most fearsome creatures in the ocean. And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

This weekend’s Alien: Romulus is getting fairly well-reviewed and seems like it’s done its job in revitalizing the horror franchise. Funnily enough, the same thing happened with the Predator series and the pretty excellent Prey back in 2022. Both brands have now gotten a solid movie under their belts in the post-Disney/Fox merger, leading some to believe if we should maybe give Alien vs. Predator another go?

It's a good time to be an Alien fan. Currently, Alen: Romulus is dominating the weekend box office, and is expected to close out its first weekend with $100 million worldwide. The film is faring well with critics and audiences alike, and is currently up on Rotten Tomatoes with an 81% critics score and 86% audience score. However, the Fede Álvarez film isn't the only Aliens content fans have to look forward to. Noah Hawley, who is best known for creating the television adaptations of Fargo and Legion, has a new Alien series coming soon to FX called Alien: Earth. A teaser for the show has been playing ahead of Alien: Romulus screenings this weekend, and Hawley recently talked to The Hollywood Reporter about the show and teased it will give fans "something special."
