Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVFormer NFL linebacker Spencer Paysinger’s senior year in high school as the captain of the Beverly Hills High School football team was an essential one to kick-start his professional football career. Since that time in his life was never dramatically halted by a deadly pandemic, and since the CW’s “All American” is inspired by his life (he is also a co-producer on the drama series), the show won’t be writing COVID-19 into its upcoming third season.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVSPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched the series finale of “The Undoing.”When Hugh Grant’s wife, Anna Eberstein, saw an early cut of his latest television project, HBO’s “The Undoing,” she told him she wanted the couple at the center of the story to get back together — something he considers “quite an interesting instinct,” given all they go through in the six-episode series from executive producer and writer David E.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVSPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched the first three episodes of “The Flight Attendant,” streaming now on HBO Max.When you pick up Chris Bohjalian’s 2018 novel “The Flight Attendant,” one of the first things you notice about its titular character Cassie is that she has a deep sense of awareness about her alcoholism that comes with some shame and self-loathing. That sets the tone for a dark and serious story outside of her waking up next to a murdered man and setting down a path to know more about him and the reason for (and culprit of) his death.HBO Max’s adaptation of the same name begins with the same inciting incident but shapes a distinct and almost new Cassie.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVSPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Saved by the Bell,” streaming now on Peacock.School is officially back in session at Bayside High and while a few things may have changed — the man behind the principal’s desk, for one — Peacock’s “Saved by the Bell” sequel series proves a few things are timeless classics.The first 10-episode season of “Saved by the Bell,” from showrunner Tracey Wigfield, introduces a new class of students, some of whom are Bayside legacies and some of whom literally step through the doors for the first time in the pilot episode after their underfunded school is shut down and they are transferred — thanks to Governor Zack Morris’ (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) poor

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVSPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square,” streaming now on Netflix.Christine Baranski grew up watching “White Christmas” with her family when she was a little girl, and that is a tradition she has kept, now watching it year after year with her own grandchildren. But over those years she has also starred in quite a few holiday films, from the satirical “The Ref” to the modern classic adaptation of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” the holiday-themed sequel to “Bad Moms” and now the Netflix musical “Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square.”“It matters to me how they see me,” Baranski tells Variety about her grandchildren.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVA lot has changed in the almost 30 years since Zack Morris (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) and the gang from the original “Saved by the Bell” graduated from Bayside High School. Not only is he now the governor of California within the world of that show, but the school itself has gotten a major upgrade for the new Peacock series, courtesy of production designer Joseph Lucky.Iconic original sets including the Bayside hallway corner, principal’s office and the Max diner have been painstakingly re-created — often, Lucky says, by using screenshots as references because the original sketches have been lost to time.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVSPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Carry On,” the series finale of “Supernatural.”For 15 seasons the Winchester brothers of the CW’s “Supernatural” put the rest of humanity’s needs ahead of their own, so it is only fitting that in their final episode they were still doing that same thing and ended up getting the “heaven [they] deserve.”The series finale, “Carry On,” started as a throwback episode to the monster-of-the-week format of the drama’s earliest days, full of callbacks and references to what made audiences fall in love with the show — and the boys — in the first place.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVAlthough Peacock’s “Saved by the Bell” sequel series is set in 2020 and made for a 2020 audience, some things remained too iconic to alter, from sets such as the Bayside High School hallway and the Max diner, to central characters such as Slater (Mario Lopez) and Jessie (Elizabeth Berkley Lauren), and the overall comedic but still family-friendly vibe to the show.“This show isn’t, nor did it want to be, the ‘Euphoria’ version of ‘Saved by the Bell.’ I don’t think anyone wants to see Slater sending dick pics,” showrunner Tracey Wigfield tells Variety.The original “Saved by the Bell” launched on NBC’s Saturday morning lineup in 1989, with a primary audience of kids and teens (“tweens” are

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVIn the world of police procedurals CBS’ “SWAT” endeavors to be an aspirational look at a highly-specialized law enforcement unit. Working with consultants on the “practicality of tactical terminology and tactical strategies” gives the series and those working on it “a healthy respect for the badge and for the job, and certainly for the sacrifices and the efforts that are made by the individuals who choose to become police officers,” says showrunner Aaron Rahsaan Thomas.
