Too often, characters in movies and TV shy away from actually uttering the dreaded word “menopause.” There are euphemisms to be had, “the change” being a favorite. There are glimpses of powerful women enduring their symptoms in private—Claire Underwood lingering in front of an open fridge on House of Cards, Rani trying to dry her armpits under the hand dryer on Bombay Begums—only to clam up when others notice their basic biological needs.

It is strange to read the early press coverage of "Saturday Night Live." No matter how much the show has changed over the years, the focus of the criticism is still much the same. "Saturday Night," as it was known when it premiered on Oct. 11, 1975, was considered to be ... rather uneven. Some saw this as a flaw, others as an endearing element. Many saw the ragtag show's potential to change TV forever.

It may not be the Red Wedding. But "Blood and Cheese" - as fans of the George R.R. Martin books call the closing event in Sunday's episode of "House of the Dragon" - is likely to be a major Westeros water cooler moment. It's shocking. It's brutal. And it has a cool nickname (though viewers who haven't read the books might wonder what the heck it means).

Jennifer Lopez in her office in Los Angeles on Dec. 21, 2021. (Chantal Anderson/The New York Times)By Jennifer VineyardAt one point during “This is Me ...

But in the case of this self-financed multimedia project, you might also question what exactly it is that you have watched.

En cierto punto durante "This is Me... Now: A Love Story", un personaje comenta que presenciar la vida amorosa de Jennifer Lopez es como ver un maratón de "Vanderpump Rules": terminas por dejar de juzgar a las personas que estás viendo y comienzas a juzgarte a ti mismo. Pero en el caso de este proyecto multimedia autofinanciado, quizá también cuestiones qué es exactamente lo que estás viendo. ¿Es una película, una colección de videos musicales, un simple proyecto de vanidad?

Andre Braugher once joked that he had an “addiction” to working on critically acclaimed but little-watched shows. This may explain why lots of his work is not readily available — including, most surprisingly, the classic yet underappreciated cop show “Homicide: Life on the Street.”Braugher, who died Monday at age 61, became a breakout scene-stealer in “Homicide” as Frank Pembleton, a Baltimore detective who was the squad’s frustrated moral center.
