Adventuring with Whole Foods

Food, at its core, is beautifully simple. Good quality, whole ingredients can be transformed into something wild and magical when flavours collide. It awakens the senses, transports us through space and time, and turns the ordinary into the extraordinary. It taps into our deepest emotions and reminds us of who we are and how we love.

Choosing whole foods doesn’t mean going without. It means leaning in and getting curious. It means trading the processed and predictable for naturally delicious and playful. A chance to explore colour, texture, and flavour at their peak, alive with the taste of season and story.

A cut of meat you’ve never tried, a fruit rind you thought was trash, or a homemade sauce so good, it becomes your new signature. Cooking this way invites play and discovery, and it keeps your mind wildly aware and your connection to the natural world beautifully intact.

The final series produced by late TV groundbreaker Norman Lear was this fact-based dramedy about a gay man (Parenthood’s Miles Heizer) who follows his best friend into the Marine Corps during the pre-“Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” ’90s, and must keep his sexuality hidden from drill sergeants and fellow recruits alike. As he’s forced to hide in plain sight, young Cameron Cope experiences a sometimes harrowing, sometimes hysterical saga of self-discovery amidst the mental and physical crucible that is boot camp. pg 55

Printed in Canada by International Web Express Inc.

As the creator of series ranging from Nip/Tuck to Glee to American Horror Story to Feud to the 9-1-1 franchise and so many more, Ryan Murphy has carved out his own niche as a producer. His latest tackles one of TV’s most familiar genres with new legal drama All’s Fair.

The premise underlying the show is a clever one. “A team of female divorce attorneys leave a male-dominated firm to open their own powerhouse practice,” describes the synopsis. “Fierce, brilliant and emotionally complicated, they navigate highstakes breakups, scandalous secrets and shifting allegiances — both in the courtroom and within their own ranks. In a world where money talks and love is a battleground, these women don’t just play the game — they change it.”

Thanks to Murphy’s reputation for generating hits, All’s Fair has assembled a heavyweight cast to play the six attorneys, including Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash, Naomi Watts and Teyana Taylor.

The show’s star, however, is a reality TV icon not generally known for her acting: Kim Kardashian, who heads the ensemble as lawyer Allura Grant.

All’s Fair marks Kardashian’s second major acting role — and her second collaboration with Murphy, who cast her in a pivotal role for the recent season of American Horror Story (and, let’s not forget, also cast Lady Gaga in her first major acting gig in an earlier season of that same show).

“I think it is absolutely time for people to take Kim Kardashian seriously as an actress. She was absolutely excellent in American Horror Story: Delicate,” Kardashian’s co-star, Sarah Paulson, told Yahoo! Entertainment last year. “I think the show we’re about to do together is going to be a tremendous amount of fun and she’s going to be glorious on it. I have absolutely no doubt about that. Zero.”

THE END OF THE LINE

I can’t wait for the return of Yellowjackets. Any scoop on the new season of my favourite show?

R.S., Victoria Season four of Yellowjackets won’t be arriving for quite some time, with production slated to begin early next year and no premiere date set. More bad news: that fourth season of the series — the saga of a group of teenage girls stranded in the woods after a plane crash, playing out in both the past and present, as the survivors try to put their lives back together — will also be its last. The news was confirmed by creators Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson. “We can’t wait to share the final chapter with you and hope you find it . . . delicious,” they teased in a statement.

MORE BOSCH WITH NEW PREQUEL

I loved Bosch, and it’s great to see the character on the spinoff, Ballard. Any chance the show could be revived?

T.D., Vancouver Based on the crime novels of Michael Connelly, LAPD detective Harry Bosch has been played by Titus Welliver in three different series for Prime Video: the original Bosch (which aired from 2014 to 2019), Bosch: Legacy

(2022-2025) and the new spinoff Ballard. While the latter has been renewed for a secod season on Prime, streamer MGM+ has ordered a prequel series, Bosch: Start of Watch, focusing on Harry’s early days with the force. Shameless alum Cameron Monaghan will be taking over the role, portraying the scrappy young gumshoe.

HUDSON & REX CAST CHANGE

What happened to the actor who played Charlie on Hudson & Rex, John Reardon? We miss him very much in the show. Will he be coming back? E.J., Surrey Debuting in 2019, Citytv cop show Hudson & Rex followed the exploits of police detective Charlie Hudson (played by Reardon) and his furry partner, a German Shepherd named Rex.

During production of the seventh season, which aired in early 2025, Reardon was diagnosed with tonsil cancer, and stepped away from the series to undergo treatment. His character was written out, with actor Luke Roberts brought in as a new partner for Rex, Det. Mark Hudson. When the eighth season premiered, however, Charlie was still gone, with Roberts now the show’s permanent star.

Shortly after the new season began airing, Reardon took to social media to reveal why he

hadn’t returned: in short, he’d been fired. “I’ve been quiet for a while — partly because it was hard to find the words, and partly because I didn’t want anyone else speaking for me,” Reardon wrote. “The truth is: I didn’t leave Hudson & Rex After taking a couple months to go through cancer treatment, I was given a clean bill of health and cleared and ready to return to work. But the team chose to go in a different direction. Although this is not how I had hoped the seven-year journey would end, I’m very appreciative of the opportunity to play a part in building something special.”

A spokesperson for the show’s production company, Shaftesbury Films, subsequently issued a statement addressing the situation: “Shaftesbury and John could not find a workable pathway forward for his return to Hudson & Rex. We are forever grateful for John’s incredible work and commitment to the show and to the fan community, on whom he’s left a lasting mark.”

Marcus Welby, M.D. was one of my favourite TV shows of the ’70s, with Robert Young as the title character. My heartthrob, however, was Dr. Kiley, played by James Brolin. I seem to recall that he had a stroke and perhaps that’s why we don’t see him much anymore.

K.T., Burnaby

James Brolin appeared in 170 episodes of Welby, which aired on ABC from 1969 to 1976 and helped to move that network to No. 1 ahead of CBS and NBC. Robert Young’s Marcus Welby was mentor to Brolin’s young Dr. Kiley, and the provocative stories were based on factual medical cases. You may feel that we haven’t seen Brolin much, but he’s been working steadily ever since Welby ended. That has included a number of movies (The Amityville Horror, Capricorn One, Pee-wee’s Big Adventure), another TV drama called Hotel (which aired from 1983 to 1988), and numerous guest spots on such series as Perry Mason, Hart to Hart and Roseanne

In 1998, he married Barbra Streisand, and the couple has remained happily wed ever since. While Brolin — who turned 85 this year — may not be as busy as he once was, he continues to work regularly, with recent projects including CBS sitcom Life in Pieces (2015-2019) and serving as narrator on Sweet Tooth. He’s currently a series regular on romance drama Ransom Canyon, which hit Netflix in April. Perhaps your erroneous recollection of Brolin’s health problems came from the storyline in the final season of Marcus Welby, M.D., in which Kiley suffered a stroke that left him paralyzed.

The medieval outlaw with a wooden bow and a heart of gold has been portrayed on screen many a time, by such luminaries as Errol Flynn, Kevin Costner, Russell Crowe and, most iconic of all, Disney’s cartoon fox.

The latest incarnation arrives in a 10-part U.K. series, which looks to root the legendary swashbuckler in historical authenticity. Set in the 11th century, as Anglo-Saxons toil under the rule of their Norman conquerors, a young man named Rob (newcomer Jack Patten) and a young maiden named

Marian (Hollyoaks alum Lauren McQueen) fight against the oppressors that have seized ancestral homes and now lord over the land and its people. Set to infuse the classic adventure with a psychological depth and “modern relevance,” the series also delves deeper into the complex bond between Robin and Marian. While our two heroes are played by relative unknowns, the villain of the piece — the sheriff of Nottingham — is an actor of considerable repute and gravitas: Game of Thrones alum Sean Bean.

Mother’s Horrors

For her first major TV role since that Emmy-winning run on Succession, Sarah Snook leads an eight-part mystery that taps into every parent’s worst nightmare. The show opens on Marissa Irvine, a working mother who runs her own wealth management firm in Illinois. As we meet Marissa, she’s ringing the bell of the house where her five-year-old son Milo is supposed to be having a play date. But when the door opens, not only is her boy nowhere to be found, but the owner of the place is an elderly woman with no children of her own and no idea what’s going on. After frantic calls to her husband (The White Lotus’ Jake Lacy) and some other parents from the school, it becomes clear Milo has been abducted. You see, the play date was arranged via text, with the mysterious kidnapper posing as one of her fellow moms. As the police are called in and the search begins, Marissa herself comes under intense scrutiny, not as a suspect, but for her perceived failings as a mother. She finds an unlikely ally

“This level of exhaustion of trying to do it all and the anger that is building with women — this assumption that it’s automatically their domain to manage everybody’s lives and happiness and well-being, that pressure just isn’t on men,” said Megan Gallagher, who adapted Andrea Mara’s 2021 novel of the same name, in a chat with Vanity Fair. “It is so real and so prevalent, but we haven’t seen it on TV to the degree that we should have by now.”

Meanwhile, being a new mother herself, Snook didn’t have to reach too far for inspiration: “There’s a different kind of attention to those roles that I can bring now from being a mom, and also a depth of feeling that I wouldn’t have understood prior to having a kid.”

Country music legend

Reba McEntire’s latest foray into sitcoms returns for a second season, continuing the sudsy hijinks at a Tennessee bar run by long-lost, mismatched sisters Bobbie (McEntire) and Isabella (Belissa Escobedo).

Per the official logline for this new chapter, “Happy’s Place reopens its doors, and a long-buried secret comes to light that will test loyalties and shake things up inside the

tavern. Through it all, Bobbie must remind everyone that family isn’t what you’re born into, but it’s the people that stand beside you, even in the workplace.”

Special guests pulling up a stool this year include Christopher Lloyd, Carol Kane and McEntire’s old Reba co-star JoAnna Garcia Swisher. Currently a regular on Sweet Magnolias, here Swisher will play a local influencer hired to jazz up the joint’s social media.

Joining Happy’s Place to form a new Fridaynight comedy block at NBC, this freshman sitcom is, in contrast to Reba’s livestudio-audience approach, an Abbott Elementary-style mockumentary set in the ruthlessly competitive world of junior college cheerleading.

Jenn Lyon, who’s previously shown off her dark comedy chops on Claws and Justified, plays Coach Courteney Potter, once a true superstar who is sent hurtling back down to the bottom of the pyramid after an Internet video triggers her dismissal from the elite school where she was on the cusp of becoming the winningest coach ever.

Starting over at a small college with a bunch of misfits, Courteney sets some modest squad goals. “Are they perfect? No. Are they good? I wouldn’t say so,” she muses in the trailer. “I’m just trying to make sure nobody dies.” But before long, our heroine learns just how far a group of underdogs can get you.

Rounding out the cast are Saturday Night Live alum Taran Killam as Caroline’s husband and cheer partner, Coach Boon, and Broadway dynamo Kristin Chenoweth as her chief rival, Coach Tammy. Behind the scenes, real-life legend of the sport Monica Aldama, of Netflix docuseries Cheer, is among the producers.

Mountaineer Adam Palmer talks hunting for more than just treasure

Trail of History

Q Do you think people have misconceptions about what’s involved in a “treasure hunt” like this?

A I think there are a lot. People don’t realize that when you’re researching a legend, if it’s a legend about a lost gold mine, you’re not looking for just a lost gold mine. There’s a lot of stuff in this legend that is far older and far more complex than just gold. I think in [season] three we really drive home the point that the missing piece of this puzzle is the history . . . There’s someone in this legend that is more important than the gold, and that’s [B.C. prospector and speculator] Volcanic Brown. He went missing looking for the gold. To me, if you find Volcanic Brown, you’ll find the gold mine. And that is a missing piece of history. That’s a missing person. It’s an over 100-year-old search-and-rescue mission that I’ve been participating in. That’s kind of my secret agenda.

QDo you encounter people who are confused about why, in this modern age, it’s still so hard to track down Slumach’s mine?

ADEADMAN’S CURSE STACK TV

Yeah, and what they forget is that the Earth is ever-changing. So, one little landslide 20, 30, 40 years ago can change the whole way you approach things. It changes what can be found. It changes how you see the land . . . It takes a lot of disciplines — research, training, climbing, and then also the ability to take all the information and make it work for you.

QOn the info front, you’re often hearing from unreliable sources . . .

AYes . . . and this kind of parallels the way media and stories are told these days [in general]. Every day, we have to deal with facts mixed up with fiction. And also, we live in a world where everyone wants to be a part of something, everyone has a claim to fame. And this legend attracts all those types of people. You have to be really careful in terms of who you trust, who you believe and how you approach that.

Truly Outrageous

THE UNBELIEVABLE WITH DAN AYKROYD

Friday, 10 p.m., History

Long before he was penning the script for Ghostbusters, Canadian comedy icon Dan Aykroyd held a fascination with the paranormal, the extraterrestrial and the all-round otherworldly. That’s no doubt due to his upbringing in a spiritualist community, where séances and other efforts to commune with the Other Side were just a routine part of life.

Offering a little taste of what’s in store for season three, the press release muses: “Did you know that a woman once survived a 30,000-foot fall by crashlanding into a nest of angry fire ants? Or that a 13th-century pope declared war on satanic cats? How about the lumberjack who survived near-decapitation by way of his own chainsaw?”

But first, we begin tonight with an episode dubbed “Strange Sightings,” which will recount truly unbelievable yet undeniably documented cases of stonechucking apes, murderous birds and sinister clowns terrorizing in the ’burbs.

It’s that background which makes the Ottawa native the perfect producer and host for this series, back tonight for a third season shining a light on strangebut-true occurrences from throughout the annals of history via archival footage, dramatic recreations and Aykroyd’s Weekend Updateesque narration.

THE PIGEON HUSTLE

With a global population in the hundreds of millions, feral pigeons are present in most of the world’s major cities, having become our most familiar neighbours. Pigeons, in fact, have been the ever-present companions to humans for thousands of years — yet despite such long-term familiarity, there’s still much that we don’t know about this remarkable, resilient bird. PBS’s latest Nature documentary, The Pigeon Hustle, goes deep inside the secret world of pigeons by following flocks in London and New York, as they face the challenges of life in these two major cities while demonstrating how they manage to adapt and thrive alongside people. Saturday Night Live alum Bobby Moynihan provides narration.

Viewer Tip Regarding Promotional Ads on TV

TV Stations regularly promote their shows on their channel, and will refer to show times in their specific time zone. For example, a station that is located in the east may only promote their program in eastern time. Also, sometimes U.S. Stations will promote programs on their affiliate stations that are not available in Canada. These types of promo ads may conflict with the listings in TV Week because we list programs in our Pacific Time Zone on stations available only in our market area. Therefore, please follow the listings in TV Week for correct listings information.

Thank You – The TV Week team.

SECRETS BETWEEN FRIENDS

AM I BEING UNREASONABLE?

Friday, 6:30 p.m. & 9:30 p.m., BBC First

Aheartfelt comedy about friendship and motherhood that’s also a paranoia-soaked thriller? Not the likeliest of genre mashups — but in the right creative hands, they can go together seamlessly.

Premiering Friday, Am I Being Unreasonable? centres on Nic (Daisy May Cooper) and Jen (Selin Hizli), two young mothers in small-town England who meet-cute at their kids’ school. Sharing an affinity for pitchblack put-downs and gossiping about the insufferable other parents — they become fast friends. But soon enough, checkered pasts, unspeakable secrets and hidden agendas bubble to the surface, and their bond begins to take on a more sinister tone.

“When we first started talking about the show, it was from those themes of friendship and motherhood,” explains Hizli, who not only stars but co-created the series with Cooper. “And then we started talking about references — like Hitchcock. Wouldn’t it be fun to do something with that kind of thriller vibe?

And I think actually at first, maybe it did lean more that way, but Daisy is the funniest person I’ve ever met. She just has funny bones, so she can’t help but inject comic genius into everything.”

“I think that line between bursting into tears or bursting out laughing . . . they’re closer to each other than we sometimes think,” Hizli continues. “That’s why, when we felt like something was getting really intense and really dramatic, wouldn’t it be so fun — and so realistic — to just have something really stupid happen?”

Of course, those darker elements of the show provide more than just

FRIENDS

edge-of-your-seat intrigue, with each sin Nic or Jen commits — however pulpy it may seem — offering a window into some very grounded human frailty. “When you are approaching something that has got that thriller element and you’ve got people taking extreme actions, I think it’s quite easy for characters to become a stereotype,” says Hizli. “And I was always really interested in making sure that our characters felt real. They might do mad things, but there’s a really human, really relatable reason.”

For instance, she reflects: “I found, and still do at times find, motherhood to be quite isolating. I think one of the things the show tackles is what can almost be a selfimposed isolation that can stem out of fear of getting things wrong, or fear of not being understood, or fear

of not measuring up in some way. I think that’s why Nic and Jen go on to form such an intense relationship, because they’ve been going through these periods of isolation. Nic in her marriage — feeling alone, even though she’s in a house surrounded by people — and Jen living this nomadic lifestyle. They suddenly feel really seen by each other, and that’s really potent.”

Crafting an authentic portrayal of female friendship was, of course, a much easier task than the Hitchcock thrills, chills and double-crosses, given that Cooper and Hizli go back a ways in real life. They first met as students in drama school — but Am I Being Unreasonable? is actually their first time writing and acting together. Luckily, their professional relationship proved just as fruitful as their personal one. “It’s a weird thing to say, but these characters are the closest to us [that we’ve ever played] — not in their choice of actions, but in their dynamic and in their humour and the way they see the world . . . I was working with my best friend and it was just like being able to expand on all of those shared jokes that we have, and all of the history. And it being my first writing experience, it was so great to be doing it with someone who I felt understood me really well.”

What’s more, fans across the

U.K. (where the series has already aired two seasons) have very much responded to that onscreen friendship . . . for better and for worse.

“When the show first came out, my kids were still at primary school,” Hizli chuckles, “and a lot of the other parents and a lot of the teachers were telling me how much they love the show. I was kind of going, ‘That’s not what I’m like, I promise . . . Oh my God, you heard me drop the C-bomb? I can’t show my face at this school again!’ ” ■

BBC First is on a nationwide free preview, now through December 28.

THE RELUCTANT TRAVELER Apple TV

When The Reluctant Traveler first launched, the show’s core premise was eliciting laughs by taking more-comfortable-onhis-couch Canadian treasure Eugene Levy through intense excursions like ice floating in the Arctic Circle and spending a bug-infested night in the Costa Rican rainforest.

But after two seasons of being not-so-gently coaxed into broadening his worldview via unique cultural experiences and visits to stunning locales around the globe, can the Schitt’s Creek star even call himself “reluctant” anymore? “I’m still not fond of the actual travel experience,”

Ain’t That a

TV Week chats with EUGENE LEVY about his no-longer-so-reluctant travels, and the importance of coming to Canada this season

said Levy, when TV Week sat down with him in-person in London, at an Apple event promoting the hit travel series’ third season. “I mean, just coming here, there was a threehour delay and you go, ‘Why don’t I just go home? Is it really worth it? Wouldn’t I be happier just going home instead of going through this?’” But whether it is journeying to South Korea, India or Vancouver, Levy is now able to articulate what

makes all this globetrotting worth the hassle — and no, it’s still not a hard post on his Instagram. “I am learning a lot through the show, and the one big thing I’m learning is you can gain more out of where you are through the people that you’re talking to than you can just snapping pictures.”

With the season having just wrapped up on October 31 with an episode covering Levy’s foray

and about

This comes off as a more emotional season, overall. Did you feel like if you had evolved as a traveller, the show had to evolve too?

That’s how it’s shaping up. Through it all, I’m getting so much better at communicating with people. I was never a very social animal. I don’t

That a Trip

through B.C., we delve into the nowveteran traveloguer’s “bucket list” theme for this third season, and how both the show and its host continue to defy expectations.

Everyone has been talking about your episode touring Windsor Castle with Prince William. How did a show about a man who doesn’t like to travel turn into the most heartfelt interview with the future king of England?

Boy, I wish I could answer that. I don’t know how it happened, but I’m glad it did. It was quite amazing, and a surprise for me. I found out about it on camera, but why or how he decided to do it, I guess that’s the one question I didn’t ask him.

initiate conversation easily with people I don’t know — never have. But I’m learning to do that here. And because of that, some episodes, like the Mexico “Day of the Dead” episode, you get into some really interesting and emotional territory with people. I think I’m generally a caring person, but I am just learning to open up and take it in and ask more questions and not be afraid to get into those areas that are on the deeper, emotional side.

How did the bucket list concept emerge? The bucket list concept came up as a way for me to try and create an experience where, instead of a bucket list that only deals with

locations, I thought of being in a certain place for a certain reason, like celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland, or experiencing the K-wave in South Korea, or the music tradition and formality of Vienna. That, I thought, would be a really interesting thing for the viewer. I have to say, I’m learning a lot and it’s doing really good things for me to experience things that I wasn’t before.

How is it changing you?

It is certainly making me open up more. This is the only job I’ve ever had where I am myself and not playing a character. So, I realized I have to start revealing more about myself. You can’t just [say] you’re a “reluctant traveller.” What is that?

Just the title of the show. The viewer had to find out exactly why I was the way I was, right? And to do that, I had to open up more about myself and talk about personal things, like my family, which I had never done before. That was a good thing for me to do. And the other is just how I deal with people on the show that I’m meeting and being able to engage them in a way that I couldn’t before. And that I think is a very positive thing.

What was it like to share this experience with your daughter Sarah, by going to Ireland together?

That was just so sweet. Listen, I love working with my kids. Any chance I can get. She was able to do that

“I’ve always been incredibly proud to be in Canada. I’m one of the few people who don’t just love to talk about Canada but still live in Toronto. I don’t just come back for TIFF. I’ve actually lived the life there. And since the 51st state thing came up? Yeah, there’s a whole new sense of nationalism, which felt really powerful and strong.”

episode, and working with her was the most fun because she’s really funny and so good. [Outside the show,] we got a chance to learn a little bit about my wife’s genealogy that goes back to Ireland. Because Sarah now does have Irish blood in her, it seemed we could get into that storyline as well. But it’s just the sweetest thing in the world. I never feel like I’m working when I’m working with my family. It always feels like we’re just at home shooting the breeze.

Then there’s your episode in Louisiana, where you’re talking about your son Dan

coming out. That was really touching. Well, case in point, that’s an example of something I just wouldn’t have done years ago. I never talked about myself or a personal side to myself. It’s a good example of how that enhances a moment and how people take to it. And how it touches other people’s lives, as well, in a very positive way, where they can identify with what we’re talking about, and it could possibly make things easier for them, in the way our show Schitt’s Creek did for the LGBTQ+ community. You know what I mean? There are good things that come out of it.

There is an episode set in Vancouver as well. What does it mean to you to be Canadian at this moment in time? I’ve always been incredibly proud to be in Canada. I still live in Canada. I’m one of the few people who don’t just love to talk about Canada but still live in Toronto. I don’t just come back for TIFF [the Toronto International Film Festival]. I’ve actually lived the life there. And since the 51st state thing came up? Yeah, there’s a whole new sense of nationalism, which felt really powerful and strong.

Was it important to do a Canada episode? Yeah, there’s so many places to see in this country that are absolutely beautiful. Vancouver is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, so I was thrilled to death when that came up. And then of course, getting Michael Bublé to be a part of it as a Vancouver resident — he grew up there. When he said yes, I thought, “Wow, that’s great.” Never met him before. We met on the ski slope.

And now you’re fast friends? And now . . . well, I don’t know whether we’re fast friends, but we had an amazing relationship doing the show and we’ve kind of texted back and forth. We keep in touch and that is great. ■

Straight as a Soldier

If you want to make a TV cast unite fast, have their heads shaved on camera.

“The minute you’re with a group of people that you’re

working with, and you all get your heads shaved on the same day, you bond those people for life,” quips Jennifer Cecil, co-showrunner of Boots, the coming-of-age military dramedy based on Greg Cope White’s memoir The Pink Marine. “I’ve never

Netflix’s sleeper hit poignantly, amusingly follows a young gay man in the ’90s who joins up with a Marine Corps still mired in homophobia

been on a show where the cast was this tightly bonded.”

An actor since the age of 11, Miles Heizer, best known for his six seasons as Lauren Graham’s son on Parenthood and four seasons as Alex Standall on 13 Reasons Why, concurs that playing U.S. Marine recruit Cameron Cope was a unique exercise in team building. “There were always 50 people in every scene, and everyone worked every single day. That’s very uncommon for a TV schedule,” he says. Add to that the gruelling boot camp exercises. “On many days there was no acting. You just sort of spit the words out. That really bonds you.”

A military story where the recruits, on and off the screen, form a brotherly bond is nothing new, per se. But Boots takes an unfortunately once-again-timely approach to the Full Metal Jacket genre, with a gay character pledging his loyalty to the Marine Corps in the early 1990s, prior to “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” taking effect. Cameron may be out in his civilian life, but in the military his sexual orientation is a crime and a secret only known to his childhood friend and fellow pledge Ray (Liam Oh).

“What I love about Cameron’s arc is that it isn’t about him discovering his sexuality. He is comfortable with who he is and he’s fortunate enough to have this best friend who loves him and accepts him for who he is,” says Heizer. “But his family is not doing the best job of uplifting him and supporting him, so when Ray is leaving [for the Marines], he is like, ‘I’d rather be with Ray.’” Indeed, this is no rom-com, and there is no sexual tension brewing

“It’s a rough time for the LGBTQ community overall, and certainly in the military, but what I’m hoping people will come to understand is that anybody who chooses to give up their personal freedoms, to protect people that they will never know, those people should be supported and thanked every single day.”

between best friends. Instead, boot camp becomes a journey of self-discovery and unlikely empowerment for Cameron. “A lot of queer people, especially when it comes to other boys, have this fear of how we’re going to be perceived, and we hang back and try not to make too much noise,” says Heizer. “In this place, where Cameron is forced to fail and stick it out, and connect with all these people, he ends up learning about himself. Of course, the conundrum is that he’s also hiding this part of himself. What is the cost of growth for him?”

Getting the tone right, between comedic, heartfelt and authentic, was the real challenge for series creator and co-showrunner Andy Parker. “Making it accessible while also not toning it down, so that you’re not just ingesting a lot of screaming but are able to really participate in the story and feel the emotion along with these characters, that was one of the hardest parts of the show,” says Parker. “But in talking with people who’ve been through this experience, I came to understand that it’s not just miserable also connection, of authentic Cameron, on joined believes for for is and people

miserable all the time. There are also moments of camaraderie, of connection, of humour. The tone of the show comes out of people’s authentic experience.”

When it comes to portraying Cameron, a character loosely based on author Cope White, who himself joined the Marines in 1979, Cecil believes only one person was right for the job. “Miles is the Trojan horse for this series,” she says. “His acting is so good that he just disarms you and brings you into the story. For people who maybe think, ‘I don’t

want to watch a military story,’ or ‘I don’t have anything to do with a gay story,’ you can’t help but root for this character, because Miles is extraordinary in the role.”

Boots was executive-produced by late television visionary Norman Lear, who optioned the book from his friend Cope White. While Lear passed away in 2023, his impact on the project is unmistakable. “What Norman gave us was this legacy to live up to,” says Parker. “The canon of his work was about expanding the story of who gets to be counted as an

American, and I think his shows were so groundbreaking because they pushed that definition further. In one of my first conversations with him, I said, ‘This story is about who gets to be counted as an American.’” What Parker never intended was for Boots to be a political show. “I thought that this was going to be an artifact of history, but there is something about the moment that we’re in that is unexpected,” he says. “It’s a rough time for the LGBTQ community overall, and certainly in the military, but what I’m hoping people will come to understand is that anybody who chooses to give up their personal freedoms, to protect people that they will never know, those people should be supported and thanked every single day. What I love about this show is that these people are coming to boot camp for different reasons — some are running away, some are running towards something, but everybody has their own personal story. It’s wonderful to be able to tell that in an ensemble fashion.” ■

CRUTCH

Monday, Paramount+

W

ith financial times being tough these days, multigenerational households are on the rise. And after all, economy aside, it takes a village to raise kids (and keep grandparents occupied), right?

In the new sitcom Crutch, one happy empty nester’s humble abode is about to become a full house. All eight episodes of the ensuing calamity will be available to binge on Paramount+ starting Monday.

Tracy Morgan is Francois “Crutch” Crutchfield, a brash Harlem widower who finds both of his adult children, grandkids included, suddenly needing a place to stay. Dear old dad welcomes his new long-term houseguests, albeit with some weariness. And in the pilot, it’s an even fuller house than usual, thanks to a visit from two very familiar faces to avid sitcom viewers. Indeed, Crutch is a spinoff of long-running CBS sitcom The Neighborhood, starring Cedric the Entertainer and Tichina Arnold as Crutch’s cousin Calvin and his wife Tina.

Lean On Somebody

Calvin, temporarily in town from California, reassures Crutch. No time for questions this visit, though. “We didn’t mean right now,” Calvin quickly follows up when Crutch tries to take him up on the offer.

up on dad’s doorstep explaining that she’s in the middle of a messy divorce, and she, along with her young ones Lisa (Braxton Paul) and Mase (Finn Maloney), need somewhere to crash.

“We’ve got a lot of experience with dealing with grown kids that’s never ready to leave the nest,”

While Crutch may have been enjoying his solitude just fine, family is family, so what are another four housemates? His oldest, Jamilah (Adrianna Mitchell, Snowfall ), turns

Per Paramount+, Jamilah is “a free-spirited naturalista with a dry wit and a sharp tongue.” After her idyllic suburban life in Minneapolis starts falling apart, she packs up

and heads back to Harlem, hoping to recreate some semblance of her own childhood for her kids. Crutch is more than happy to teach these li’l newcomers a thing or two, giving them a crash course in the subway and the creatures that call it home, as well as how to come off “New York tough.”

Crutch’s son, Jake (Jermaine Fowler, Coming 2 America), finds

himself back in the old man’s upstairs apartment after a thwarted attempt to fly the coop. Disillusioned by corporate greed, Jake left a high-paying job at a slick law firm to begin a more fulfilling career providing legal aid in Harlem. Though the new gig might come with more heartfelt thank-yous, those do not pay the bills, so pop-subsidized housing is a necessity.

Incredulous at his son’s reasons for turning down a quarter-milliondollar salary, Crutch opines: “Money can’t buy you happiness, but it can get you so close you won’t even know the difference.” Jake, however, is set on learning his own lessons, and maybe for him happiness really does come via a lighter paycheque.

Tony-winning Broadway star Kecia Lewis helps round out the cast as Crutch’s sister-in-law, Antoinette, a divorcée who returns to the fold as soon as she hears her late sister’s kids have fallen on hard times. A

correctional officer at Rikers Island, Antoinette usually doesn’t have time for Crutch’s antics, but she’s willing to put their differences aside to help out.

While our curmudgeonly protagonist tells it how it is, however cynically he sees it, his longtime best friend is the polar opposite — a cheery, glass-halffull kind of guy. Adrian Martinez (Stumptown) stars as Flaco, Crutch’s loyal childhood pal and general manager of the flooring shop they run together.

Morgan, of course, needs no reintroduction. The actor and comedian is known for unforgettable performances, like his seven-season run on Saturday Night Live, and as one of the most quotable characters on 30 Rock — absurdly unstable actor and bane of Liz Lemon’s existence, Tracy Jordan.

Behind the scenes, the leading man reunites with a trusted collaborator — creator Owen Smith, who also helmed Morgan’s four-season comedy The Last O.G. One of Smith’s early duties in launching Crutch was to do a little rewrite on the character viewers met a few years ago. First appearing as Calvin’s rich brother in a season-four episode of The Neighborhood, for his own show Crutch was tweaked to be of more modest means, and a more distant relation as Calvin’s cousin.

In a spinoff-launching crossover event, Morgan will appear in a new episode of The Neighborhood, airing on CBS the same night as Crutch debuts on Paramount+. In that episode, Crutch takes a very hands-on approach to Calvin’s request for flooring help, arriving in Los Angeles — and promptly driving Tina crazy. We suppose it’s only fitting that he’s about to get a taste of his own medicine, from his own unexpected visitors. ■

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF LONDON: REUNION

Monday, Hayu

QHow does transplanting such a distinctly American creation like the Housewives franchise to a city like London change the game?

AI feel like in Canada and America, there are some “dynasty” families. But overall we are new money. In the U.K., they’ve got this extra layer of who’s a lord, who’s a lady, who’s descended from whom, who has access to castles? They’ve got this level of wealth, and also this class obsession.

When you put it in London, it’s everything Housewives wanted to be. I think it had to originate in America as part of that reality TV boom, but it always wanted a home here . . . And the insults are just so much more poetic. Like, I think Amanda at one point called the Juliets “unemployed, unsuccessful, poisonous trolls.” You won’t hear language like that coming out of New Jersey. You just won’t.

QIn hosting this Reunion, did you get the sense the ladies were surprised by their Housewives experience?

A I got the sense that these are very, very thoughtful, really earnest women, for whom everything has a great impact. Like, every spat that you and I might think is frivolous has a great impact on them. And their friendships are really important to them . . . maybe because their husbands travel for work, or they feel isolated in their role as a “plus one” or a walking, talking, living, breathing sports car — maybe some of them have a history of feeling that way. So, their female sisterhoods become really important. [In the Reunion,] they were

MEMORABLE ROLES:

Despite being born and raised in Ontario, comedian Katherine Ryan has made most of her showbiz bones across the pond. Beyond standup, Ryan has lent her biting wit to U.K. panel shows like Never Mind the Buzzcocks, as well as romcom thriller Romantic Getaway and dark Netflix comedy The Duchess, which she also created.

still trying to navigate their way through arguments that started in episode one. They came with receipts. They came with legal letters. They came with screengrabs. All of this is very meaningful to them. So no, they didn’t seem surprised . . . but it’s difficult to tell with Botox.

QDo you think having cameras around all the time, unnatural as that may seem, can function as a form of therapy?

A Yeah, they really force you to confront who you are and what you have said — and look at yourself from a third-party perspective. A lot of times [during the specials], they would pull up footage like a sports game. They’d be like, “We wanna see exactly what happened.” And it’s amazing the way that truth is very malleable and open to interpretation. All of us are watching the same exchange, but to one woman it can mean something very different than to another. So, it’s very useful to have the camera there. But equally, these women are so

With season one of The Real Housewives of London all wrapped up, it’s time for the postmortem.

Part one debuts Monday, October 27; the second and final part streams Monday, November 3.

authentic and so honest. I see a lot of young people on these sexy reality TV shows, like Love Island, and they’re going in with a very different agenda. They want maybe a brand deal at the end of it, and they’re concerned about, “Well, if I say what I really think, I might be cancelled on social media.” These women don’t give a toss about any of that. What results is total transparency.

Q How exactly does your Canadian identity affect your work in the U.K.?

AAll over the world, Canadians have carved out a reputation as being peacekeepers and mediators . . . and our accent is more palatable to a lot of the British public than an American accent. I think if I was coming in hot from New Jersey, I would sound very shrill to a British audience. They understand the Queen has been on all of my money, all of my life. I think I get more acceptance in all of my work as a Canadian than I would if I were American.

The powerhouse of energy and life-long vibrancy

What are mitochondria, and how do we spark them?

They are like very tiny powerplants that produce energy in every living cell of our bodies. On average, every cell has 1,500 mitochondria. Can you imagine that for their extremely small size, it’s been said that they produce, gram for gram, 10,000–50,000 times more energy than the sun?

To say that mitochondria are important to human health is grossly understating their role in our

survival. We literally would not be alive without them. They convert our food into energy, so that every other function of our body can occur as it needs to. As we age, our ability to create healthy mitochondria to support our energy demands diminishes. And because about 90% of our cellular energy is produced by mitochondria, this decline can cause significant health issues
