Producers’ launches TCM’s latest Oscar salute classic corner
‘The
BY JAY BOBBIN
Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder in “The Producers”
Mel Brooks was known for his work in other mediums when he made his first big feature-film mark with “The Producers,” and the 1967 comedy is the first attraction in a Turner Classic Movies night tied into channel co-host Dave Karger’s new interview book “50 Oscar Nights” Monday, Jan. 22. Appropriately in keeping with that theme, Brooks received an Academy Award for best original screenplay for the picture, which almost didn’t get a wide release until fan Peter Sellers took it upon himself to crusade on its behalf.
Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder play backers of a Broadway musical that they want to fail, hoping to cash in on that result. No one is more surprised nor dismayed than they are when the show becomes a hit, meaning that they’ll have to pay off other investors … with funds they don’t have. True to Brooks’ style, the humor is often off-color; the marvelous cast also includes Dick Shawn, Kenneth Mars, Estelle Winwood, Lee Meredith and later “Maude” co-star Bill Macy.
Through all of the ups and downs, changes and adaptations of the world, one thing seems pretty solid: humanity’s interest in the art and devastation of war. This interest may be reflected in the hobbies of Civil War re-enactors, one’s choice of literature or, as it turns out, one’s choice of televised entertainment.
Luckily for the World War II enthusiasts out there, Apple TV+ releases a new series Friday, Jan. 26. Based on author and historian Donald L. Miller’s book, “Masters of the Air: America’s Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany,” the series, titled simply “Masters of the Air,” follows the 100th Bomb Group, an American airborne unit that helped defeat the Nazis during World War II. Nine action-packed episodes are to be released weekly until the March 15 finale, with the first two dropping on the streamer Jan. 26.
Billed as — as British GQ writer Jack King wrote in his Nov. 9 article — the “spiritual sequel to ‘Band of Brothers,’” “Masters of the Air” is made possible by the HBO series’ producers Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman, all of whom also collaborated behind the scenes on the 2010 miniseries “The Pacific.” While not a direct sequel to either HBO miniseries, “Masters of the Air” promises to take viewers away from a literal boots-on-the-ground look at the war machine and instead takes to the equally treacherous skies.
There are plenty of recognizable faces for viewers to watch in awe, including “The Banshees of Inisherin” (2022) actor Barry Keoghan, who also starred in the popular 2017 war epic “Dunkirk”; “War and Peace” star Callum Turner; and the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll himself, Austin Butler (“Elvis,” 2022).
Also starring in all nine episodes of the series are Ben Radcliffe (“Anatomy of a Scandal”), Anthony Boyle (“Tetris,” 2023), Rafferty Law (“Repo Men,” 2010), David Shields (“The Crown”), Darragh Cowley (“The Essex Serpent”), Edward Ashley (“The Terror”), Elliot Warren (“The Batman,” 2022) and Nate Mann (“Licorice Pizza,” 2021). BBC’s newest Time Lord, “Doctor Who’s” Ncuti Gatwa, and Sawyer Spielberg (“Honeydew,” 2020) also appear in the series.
Adapted from Miller’s novel by “Band of Brothers” and “The Last Vermeer” (2019) screenwriter John Orloff, “Master of the Air” flies viewers back in time to Europe during the Second World War, a time when the 8th Air Force’s 100th Bomb Group become known by its nickname, “The Bloody Hundredth.” And like most war films and series, the excitement and patriotism are featured alongside a healthy dose of grounded reflection and plenty of unthinkable devastation.
Per the official Apple TV+ description, the series takes a pilot’s-seat approach to the carnage as the men “conduct perilous bombing raids over Nazi Germany and grapple with the frigid conditions, lack of oxygen and sheer terror of combat conducted at 25,000 feet in the air.”
While set largely in and over “the bucolic fields and villages of southeast England,” the nine-episode event is, in fact, based on a true story and visits “the harsh deprivations of a German prisoner of war camp” (per Apple). Such sensitive material requires an expert approach, and so Hanks, Spielberg and Goetzman are the perfect team to do the 100th’s story justice. With plenty of history in this genre and an undying respect for the perils of war, the trio reproduces “a unique and crucial time in world history” by way of “a genuine cinematic achievement.”
“Tom [Hanks] and Steven [Spielberg] have always wanted to visualize cinematically what our author Don Miller has called this ‘singular event in the history of warfare,’” said Goetzman, as reported by Esquire. “We’re thrilled that Apple TV+ has given us the opportunity to combine the efforts of so many talented people, on-screen and behind the camera, to tell this important story.”

“Trading Places” (Sundance, Sunday. Jan. 21): An extremely clever comedy, all the way up to its double-meaning title, this John Landis-directed 1983 hit teams “Saturday Night Live” veterans Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy. They play Philadelphians of very different backgrounds — a privileged commodities broker and a scrappy hustler — whose stations in life literally are switched through the machinations of a couple of wealthy and ruthlessly scheming brothers (Don Ameche, Ralph Bellamy), who want to satisfy a bet they’ve made about human nature. Jamie Lee Curtis and Denholm Elliott lend great support.
“Bull” (ION, Friday, Jan. 26): Repeats of the Michael Weatherly-starring series join this network starting with the debut episode, in which the title psychiatrist demonstrates his value as a trial consultant while dealing with the case of a wealthy man’s murder-accused son. The show was inspired by experiences of Dr. Phil McGraw, one of its executive producers; cast regulars also include Freddy Rodriguez, Geneva Carr and Jaime Lee Kirchner.

“Jacqueline Novak: Get on Your Knees” (Jan. 23)
Comedian Jacqueline Novak’s break-out hit stand-up show first took off in 2019, where audience members showed for repeat viewings across multiple sold-out runs. This year, Novak teamed up with director Natasha Lyonne and cinematographer Sam Levy to film the show’s final performance as a concert film-meets-comedy special at historic Town Hall in New York City. Both raunchy and poignant, the show is an unexpectedly philosophical, coming-of-age tale of triumph that pushes the boundaries of stand-up.

“FEUD: Capote Vs. The Swans” (FX/FXX/Hulu — Jan. 31/Feb. 1, Limited Series Premiere)
This second installment in Ryan Murphy’s anthology is based on the bestselling book “Capote’s Women: A True Story of Love, Betrayal, and a Swan Song for an Era” by Laurence Leamer. Acclaimed writer Truman Capote (Tom Hollander) surrounded himself with a coterie of society’s most elite women, whom he nicknamed “the swans,” Enchanted and captivated by these doyennes, Capote ingratiated himself into their lives, befriending them and becoming their confidante, only to ultimately betray them by writing a thinly veiled fictionalization of their lives, exposing their most intimate secrets. Naomi Watts, Slim Keith, C.Z. Guest and Lee Radziwill also star.

Hot commodity: ‘Superhot’ searches for world’s hottest pepper
From director Brian Skope (“Ranch to Table,” 2021), “Superhot: The Spicy World of Pepper People” premieres Monday, Jan. 22, on Hulu.
This limited, 10-episode docuseries brings the heat, narrated by funnyman Ben Schwartz (“Parks and Recreation”), who takes viewers on a quest for the spiciest of spices. “‘Superhot’ is a wild ride into the Spicy World of Pepper People — the self-proclaimed chili heads who have taken the chili pill and want to find out how deep the rabbit hole goes,” Hulu describes.
“This 10-part series goes deep into a subculture fueled by spice: from the elite growers who strive to create new superhots to the chili eaters who chase the endorphin rush of consuming them. Along the way, one legendary chili head sets out on a quest to answer the spiciest of questions.” The platform asks: “is there a pepper that can challenge the world’s hottest?”
“Pepperheads” will know that the Carolina Reaper held this spicy title for years, only to be recently dethroned by the tongue-burning chili Pepper X for 2023’s Guinness World Records. According to the records, the Reaper pepper clocked in at 1.64 million Scoville heat units — SHU, a measurement of the pungency or “spiciness” of a pepper’s heat — while this new, green, bell-shaped pepper boasted an impressively hot 2.69 million SHU.
Developed by American chemist Wilbur Scoville in 1912, this measurement — the Scoville scale — aims to classify the concentration of capsaicinoids, which are said to cause the heat that comes off peppers. While subjective, Scoville’s scale is derived from the average capsaicinoid sensitivity people experience while eating specific hot chilis. The average jalapeno pepper, for example, scores an average between 3,000 and 8,000 on the Scoville scale, meaning this new pepper is almost 900 times hotter than its more common cousin.
Both the Carolina Reaper and Pepper X were grown by Puckerbutt Pepper Company founder Ed Currie on his farm in South Carolina. According to an article published by CNN: “Ed cultivated Pepper X on his farm for over
bestof ...
Ben Schwartz
10 years, cross-breeding it with some of his hottest peppers to increase its capsaicin content.”
Whether it remains the highest mark on Scoville’s scale — well, “Superhot” plans to find out.
From paprika to jalapeno poppers, to Currie’s Pepper X, explore a world of explosive flavor when all 10 episodes of “Superhot: The Spicy World of Pepper People” make their streaming debut Monday, Jan. 22, on Hulu.

BEST TOM HANKS MOVIES
Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah in “Splash”
“Splash” (1984): Hanks made a big splash himself in the comedy that made him a movie star, casting him as an ordinary guy in love with a mermaid (Daryl Hannah).
“Big” (1988): The childlike spirit Hanks exudes is crucial to this comedy about a youngster who gets his wish to grow up overnight.
“A League of Their Own” (1992): “There’s no crying in baseball!” Hanks delivers an iconic movie line as the manager of an all-female baseball team.
“Philadelphia” (1993): Oscar came calling the first time for Hanks for his fully felt portrayal of a lawyer with AIDS suing his former firm.
Turner Classic Movies shows the drama Wednesday, Jan. 24.
“Forrest Gump” (1994): Hanks earned his second Oscar - in as many years - as he took the iconic title character through encounters with others real and fictional.
“Apollo 13” (1995): Hanks is compelling as Jim Lovell, one of the three astronauts performing a mission that almost turned tragic.
“Saving Private Ryan” (1998): Under Oscar winner Steven Spielberg’s direction, Hanks is the perfect everyman in representing a U.S. soldier in charge of others amid the horrors of World War II.
“The Green Mile” (2000): Hanks does stunning work in Stephen King’s story of a prison guard deeply affected by a death-row convict (Michael Clarke Duncan) possessed of a unique ability.
“Cast Away” (2000): Considering his sole co-star for much of the film is a volleyball, Hanks’ talent is invaluable to this saga of a courier-company executive stranded on an island by a plane crash.
“Captain Phillips” (2013): Hanks gives a thoroughly gripping performance in the title role of this true story of a ship overtaken by Somali pirates in the Indian Ocean.
“Sully” (2016): Directed by Clint Eastwood, Hanks offers a convincing portrayal of Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, the veteran pilot who executed the “Miracle on the Hudson” landing.
