Evidence that Kevin was toggling between the three women appeared to line up with the encounters he had with them at the wedding — from Sophie's secret, longing glance while Kevin wasn't looking (and their awkward, but brief drive-by conversation later) to Cassidy quietly asking him in the elevator to retrieve her floral wrap from his room to the wedding singer's flirty gazes and their side conversation «about last night.»During a break in the wedding reception action, Randall checks up on Kevin and wastes no time asking him what the heck was going on with him the night before.

Katie Lowes, “Scandal”), his preteen son Sam (Mason Wells), his mom Helen (Julie White) and his mentor, Archie (Chi McBride).“I read [the script] with my wife and we were happy that the wife wasn’t a nagging sitcom cliché. And I liked that my son, Sam wants to be a tap dancer, and my character Tom – who’s not from that [arts] world – doesn’t make fun of him,” said Holmes.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticPete Holmes is a fairly cerebral comic, a presence whose jokes consistently feel carefully thought through. His recent HBO sitcom “Crashing,” which ended in 2019, took a subject that is easy to lampoon — a comedian’s quest for recognition and success — and took it seriously, treating it with real sensitivity.There’s something particularly dispiriting, then, about “How We Roll,” a new sitcom starring Holmes that’s lacking any semblance of his voice or his wit.

Rachel DeLoache Williams, the real-life person who was the inspiration for Katie Lowes‘ character in the Netflix series Inventing Anna, is once again calling out the streaming service.

Pete Holmes stars as blue-collar worker Tom Smallwood, who takes a chance on himself, after losing his job and embarking on his dream of becoming a professional bowler.Much like bowling, Tom gets a second chance and has the support of his family as he finally gets a shot to live out his dream.  “As a skilled player, Tom knows that in bowling you get two chances; no matter what you do with the first ball, you get another one to make it right—the ultimate second chance,” the series description says. “Keeping that in mind, Tom begins his new career with the loving okay from his wife, Jen, the unfaltering support of Archie, his mentor and the proud owner of Archie’s Lanes: Home of the Curly Fry, the cautious backing of his protective mom, Helen, and the encouragement of his son, Sam.

The new series Inventing Anna is currently number one on Netflix and fans want to know more about the real-life people who inspired the characters.

Wyatte Grantham-Philips editorWhen bringing a “whole story [that] is completely true, except for all the parts that are totally made up” to life, “Inventing Anna” costume designers Lyn Paolo and Laura Frecon had to dive into Instagram.“The very beginning of the project was actually more about research and matching everything that the real Anna wore for her Instagram — which sort of became our Greek chorus,” Paolo told Variety. “And that was extensive research… Even before we got into the fashion elements, we had to recreate that whole Instagram wall, and also all of the court looks.”“Inventing Anna” follows faux-heiress Anna Delvey (née Anna Sorokin) (Julia Garner) as she awaits trial for grand larceny and theft of services.

Netflix series Inventing Anna.The series, which was released last Friday (February 11), chronicles the rise and fall of scammer Anna Delvey (aka Anna Sorokin) who is played by Ozark star Julia Garner.Williams who is a journalist played by Katie Lowes, makes an appearance in episode six of the series, as the show goes on to document a disastrous holiday that the real-life Williams went on with Sorokin in 2017.The journalist wrote in detail about her trip to Marrakesh in a 2018 article for Vanity Fair titled ‘My Bright-Lights Misadventure With A Magician Of Manhattan‘ and in a 2019 book titled My Friend Anna.She has since responded to her portrayal in the series in an article for Time Magazine in which she clarified that she “was not involved with the show”.Williams explained that she “expected there would be times when the dramatisation of my experience would make me uncomfortable” and added she “understood that stepping into the spotlight came with certain risks”.“I would only have so much control over how I was portrayed,” she wrote but added that “this Netflix description felt shocking”.She went on to quote one section of her character’s description which states that “the woman she becomes because of Anna” and said that these “seven little words in one fell swoop stripped me of my agency, accomplishments, and truth”.Williams added: “Were we meant to believe that the woman I had become was not on account of the parents who raised me, the love I shared with family and friends, my own efforts or personal growth, but because of Anna?” As reflected in Inventing Anna, the journalist was pressured into footing the bill for the lavish holiday when Sorokin said she was experiencing trouble with her bank.

Inventing Anna is , but perhaps none as heart-pounding and relatable as episode six, which takes place in Marrakech at the ultra luxurious .

Netflix is releasing a brand-new drama for February about the life of a German heiress who stole the hearts of many of New York’s socialites.
