On the show today…

Netflix has just released the trailer for the third and final season of the hit series Dead to Me, and it looks like the show is going out with a bang. Along with the trailer comes the full story of what Christina Applegate went through filming the final episodes, following a serious health diagnosis. Here’s what you need to know.

Plus, in movie news, James Cameron has released the first full-length trailer for his upcoming film, Avatar: The Way of Water. Now, we were initially skeptical that this franchise needed multiple sequels nearly a decade after it was first released, but footage from the trailer and the story behind it has changed our minds.

And we need to have a discussion about why the public is demanding that actors disclose their sexuality when before taking on queer roles. This week a Netflix star was outed against his will and a conversation around Harry Styles playing a gay character has bubbled to the surface, pushing us to have a complicated conversation around the questions we shouldn't be asking.
