Sneak peek at NBC's "Yes, Chef!" with Martha Stewart and José Andrés.
Watch a preview of NBC's "Yes, Chef!" a new cooking competition show with Martha Stewart and José Andrés.
Just when you thought she couldn't go higher, Martha Stewart has unlocked a new level of unrelatability.
The celebrity chef shocked viewers (and Kelly Clarkson) in an April 28 appearance on "The Kelly Clarkson Show" when she revealed she had never ordered a takeout meal.
"Do you want to know a secret?" Stewart, 83, said. "I have never ordered in."
The revelation came as she and fellow celebrity guest José Andrés were discussing the filming of their new cooking competition show "Yes, Chef!" in Toronto.

Recounting all the amazing cuisine they sampled in the Canadian city, Stewart laughed off a suggestion from Clarkson that they order delivery rather than go out after a long day of filming.
"You've never been like, 'It's a Taco Bell night'?" Clarkson asked, clearly in disbelief. Andrés, also shocked, shook his head and said: "Oh my God."
Stewart doubled down, saying her daughter could vouch for her.

"Prove it!" Andrés said to audience laughter, inviting anyone with proof of Stewart ordering in to come forward.
"You're so pure," he joked, down on one knee as if to worship her virtue for never giving in to a late-night Grubhub craving.
Clarkson, back in her seat after getting up in shock, jokingly assured Stewart that she had ordered enough delivery for the both of them.
In "Yes, Chef!" Stewart and Andrés are on a mission to find the best chef among a batch of 12 and to help coach them through any obstacles to success that may be in their way.
"Our job is to be judge and mentor," Stewart, 83, recently told USA TODAY. "As for the issues, well, there's anger management, there's also 'I'm the best and no one else can do anything as well as I do.' There are those who can't cooperate with others or can't delegate. Perhaps all normal issues, but they're heightened because it's a competition setting where you're trying to put out the best food you can for two foodie people like me and José Andrés."

The show airs at 10 p.m. ET Mondays on NBC. Don't have cable? There are two ways to watch the series through Fubo or Peacock.

A floating Disney bubble: What families can expect on Disney cruises
A floating Disney bubble: What families can expect on Disney cruises Show Caption Hide Caption Deluxe Family Oceanview Stateroom tour on the new Disney Treasure USA TODAY took a ride on the brand new Disney Treasure cruise ship. Here's what to know about the Deluxe Family Oceanview Stateroom. "Family travel' is a six-part series showcasing the best experiences and destinations for young families looking for an escape. If you'd like to contribute to our future reporting and share your experience as a source, you can click here to fill out this quick form. I've been visiting Disney parks my entire life. I thought I knew what the Disney bubble was. Disney Cruise Line blew my definition out of (or into) the water. Everything Disney fans look for in a Disney vacation is – as Disney likes to say – plussed up on their ships. Here's what I experienced on my first Disney cruise and what your family can expect on yours. What is special about a Disney cruise? Disney cruises are made for Disney fans. 'We know that when guests get on one of our ships, 40, 50% of them are saying the only reason I'm cruising today is because Disney is here,' Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D'Amaro told USA TODAY last August, ahead of the cruise line's expansion announcements at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. 'These cruise ships are ways that we can tell all of the amazing stories that we have. We bring them to life in dining; we bring them to life theatrically. We bring them to life through technology and our cast members.' Many ship venues are inspired by Disney stories. Guests who want to learn how they can take an Art of the Theme Show Tour during their sailing. Disney characters roam about regularly and unlike in the parks, never have long waits to meet them. The entertainment on board is truly Broadway quality, not only because Disney is at heart an entertainment company, but it's also produced numerous shows on Broadway. My favorite show on our Disney Treasure sailing was "Disney the Tale of Moana," which Disney developed with Broadway veterans and Polynesian cultural advisors and cast. The youth clubs, particularly for younger children, feel like stepping into Disney movies. Many kids happily spend hours there, and adults wish they could, too. The closest grown-up guests get is during open houses. Guests rotate through a variety of themed restaurants for dinner each night of their sailing, and servers rotate with you so they can get to know you and your preferences, as well as any dietary needs. The level of customer service is exactly what you'd expect from Disney. Ships are designed with families in mind. Most staterooms have split bathrooms, so multiple people can get ready at the same time, and most feature bathtubs, which are clutch with young children. You're traveling with fellow Disney families and fans, who share your enthusiasm. Non-Disney fans can still enjoy sailings, but for those who love Disney, it's the ultimate floating Disney bubble. Disney parks take to the seas: How the new Disney Treasure makes magic Is a Disney cruise all-inclusive? Disney cruises include lodging, most dining, entertainment, recreation, youth club access, and more in their standard fare. There is an additional fee for childcare for infants and toddlers under age 3 at 'it's a small world nursery.' Extra experiences like adult-exclusive dining, makeovers at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Sea, the Royal Court Royal Tea Party with Disney princess, and spa and salon services also have fees. Is all the food on a Disney cruise free? Meals at rotational dining restaurants, on-board buffets, and various food stands are included in the cruise fare, as is most room service. Guests may choose to pay extra for adult-exclusive dining like Remy or Enchanté by Chef Arnaud Lallement. Treats at smoothie and sweets shops and snacks at concession stands near onboard movie theaters have à la carte fees. Specialty coffee drinks and alcohol are also extra. Do Disney cruises have good food? Yes. There are various options at each rotational restaurant. Guests are also welcome to ask for other offerings off menu, but what stuck out to me were everyday dishes like comforting congee at breakfast and a mountain of succulent crab legs during lunch at the Treasure's Marceline Market buffet. Mickey Churro Waffles and Disney Cruise Line chicken tenders are other fan favorites. So are Mickey ice cream bars, which you can order for free through room service. Italian-inspired Palo and other adult-exclusive restaurants, which cost extra, are so popular that reservations book up well ahead of sailings. Guests who miss out in advance can try to book in person upon embarkation. Is there unlimited alcohol on Disney cruises? No. There are no unlimited alcoholic beverage packages on Disney cruises. You can buy individual drinks and bottles of wine on board or pre-order bundles of hard seltzer, beer or wine. There are also deals like Drinks of the Day and the Beer Mug Savings package, which, for a one-time $15.25 fee, gets you 21-ounce beer refills for the price of 16 ounces. Upon initial embarkation and at each port, guests of legal drinking age may also carry on up to two unopened bottles of wine or champagne or six unopened beers no larger than 12 ounces. These must be brought in carry-on luggage, not checked, and may not be consumed in lounges or public spaces, aside from restaurants, where there is a corkage fee. Is there a casino on the Disney cruise? No. There are no casinos on Disney cruise ships. The closest thing to gambling is BINGO, which is extremely popular. Is there free Wi-Fi on Disney cruises? Yes. Guests can use free DCL Guest Wi-Fi to access the Disney Cruise Line Navigator App and message fellow guests. You can also message folks back home using third-party tools like Apple Messages and WhatsApp. However, you'll need paid internet service for anything more substantive like making calls, accessing social media, browsing the internet, posting or streaming video, and more. How much does a Disney cruise cost per person? Prices vary widely by sailing (ship, dates, itinerary, cruise duration and more), stateroom category, how many guests share the same stateroom and guest age. Kids under age 3, ages 3-12, and 13-17 are charged at different rates than adults, according to Plan Disney. Limited-time promotions also impact pricing. For instance, Disney Cruise Line is currently offering up to 30% off select summer 2025 sailings from the U.S. Prospective guests can find the latest special offers on the cruise line's website. Additionally, Disney Cruise Line passengers can lock in 10% off a future cruise when they purchase a refundable placeholder reservation while onboard a ship. At last check, the lowest priced sailing for a family of four departing the U.S. with two adults and two kids between the ages of 3-12 was priced at $2,620. That works out to $655 per person in an interior cabin on the Disney Wish for a 3-night Bahamas cruise leaving Port Canaveral on Aug. 22, 2025. Three-night cruises on the new Disney Adventure, launching in Singapore this December, start even lower. Does Disney Cruise Line go to Europe? Yes. Disney sails from three European ports: Barcelona, Spain Citavecchia, Italy (outside Rome) Southampton, England Transatlantic sailings are also offered several times a year. Do adults with no kids go on Disney cruises? Yes. Even though the cruises are designed with families in mind, lots of Disney adults sail kid-free. Many enjoy getting to feel like kids again themselves. Each ship and both of Disney's private island destinations have adult-exclusive areas and experiences. What are Disney's two private islands? Disney's has two private island destinations in the Bahamas: Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point. Is it cheaper to go to Disney or Disney cruise? That depends on how long you plan to sail versus visit parks, as well as choice of accommodations, dining and time of year. It can go either way. What is the cheapest way to book a Disney cruise? Guests will generally find the best prices the day itineraries are released. This happens a few times a year, about 15 to 18 months in advance of sailings, according to Plan Disney. Travelers can work with travel agents to keep tabs on when the next batch will be released or sign up for Disney Cruise Line email updates and follow the cruise line on social media. Are Disney cruises worth it? They are for many fans. 'They rate us very, very highly, and they tend to want to come back,' D'Amaro said. But just like any vacation, the cruises may not be worth it for everyone. The reporter on this story received access to the ship from Disney Cruise Line. USA TODAY maintains editorial control of reviews.

Why Mindy Kaling Took A Break From Acting
At this point, Mindy Kaling is an undeniable multihyphenate. From Never Have I Ever and The Sex Lives of College Girls to Velma and Running Point, it honestly feels like we've gotten a show that she's created or written every time we switch on our TVs. Mindy's been so ever-present behind the scenes that it's honestly been easy to forget that we were all introduced to her as an actor — especially in the classic NBC TV show The Office (which, to be clear, she also wrote for). These days, however, Mindy isn't in front of the camera all that often. She's done some voice work on Velma and Monsters at Work, and she's made the occasional appearance on The Morning Show, but that's about it. During a recent public appearance (via The Hollywood Reporter), Mindy addressed her recent absence as an actor — especially when it came to making a cameo on Never Have I Ever, which she ultimately decided not to do. 'A show literally about an Indian American family in Southern California, and if I wasn't on that—what's wrong with me?' she joked. 'I think there is a part of me that feels a little superstitious,' she continued. 'I'm like, these seem to have gone well and I'm not in them so maybe I'll wait.' Mindy also admitted that she does "miss" acting, and that she "would like to write or co-create a show for me to act in soon" — particularly because doing so would be 'unbelievably fun and it's so efficient.' 'I would love to do that again,' she said. 'That's the thing that maybe in the next couple years, when I launch a couple other things that are earlier in the pipeline, that would be something that would be fun to do again.' We'll see what happens!

SNL: We Pick the 15 Funniest Sketches of Season 50 — Watch Video
Saturday Night Live's landmark 50th season has come and gone… and as usual, it left us with plenty of big laughs. NBC's sketch comedy institution wrapped up Season 50 last month, bringing back lots of familiar faces along the way, with cameos from legendary alumni like Adam Sandler and Tina Fey. But SNL delivered some instant-classic sketches this season, too — maybe even ones we'll still be talking about 50 years from now. (We'll probably have to explain to our grandchildren who or what Moo Deng was, though.) More from TVLine #OneChicago: Find Out Which Stars Are Set to Return This Fall - Plus, Fire, Med and P.D. Episode Counts Revealed Outlander's Jamie and Claire Get Goofy in Bed and Other Season 7 Bloopers - Watch Exclusive Reel AGT Just Brought Back Two Acts for Redemption in Season 20 - and One Got a Golden Buzzer! (Watch) We're celebrating the end of another SNL season — and a half-century of Studio 8H greatness — by looking back at the funniest Season 50 sketches, from uproarious live moments to pre-taped short films to Weekend Update characters we hope to see a lot more of in future seasons. Our favorite sketches include stellar work from hosts like Ariana Grande, John Mulaney and… Lady Gaga? Who knew she was a comedy powerhouse? (Note: In the interest of fairness, we left off any sketches from February's live SNL50 anniversary special — although those were fantastic, too. Click here for a full rundown.) Read on to see which Season 50 sketches made the cut — press PLAY on the photo that accompanies each entry to watch the sketch in full — and be sure to hit the comments below and let us know if we left off any of your favorites. This short film is a real emotional roller coaster, telling the tale of a cute monkey that was sent into outer space at the dawn of the Space Race — and might not make it back home. The Mad Men-era period detail is exquisite here, and Beppo's story actually becomes genuinely poignant at times. (We're rooting for you, Beppo!) But John Mulaney and company make sure to weave lots of absurd humor into the mix, even when things go dark. (And zero forever.) Ariana Grande really showed off her vocal range in this goofy trip back to the Italian Renaissance, playing a young boy who has an incredibly high singing voice… thanks to an involuntary castration. (Poor Antonio.) The sight gag of Grande's haunted face is priceless, and SNL greats Maya Rudolph and Andy Samberg even pop in to explain the castration process in broad Italian accents: 'We never cut. We just-a twist!' Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che's annual joke swap is always a good time, where they write incredibly offensive jokes for each other to read on air without seeing them first. They really outdo themselves here, though, with Jost comparing his wife Scarlett Johansson's, um, private area to Costco roast beef — with a shocked Johansson watching live backstage. She did eventually get an apology from Che… penned by Jost, of course. Yes, Shane Gillis bombed hard with his controversial monologue — and his episode earned a 'F' grade from TVLine readers — but we did find a silver lining in this commercial parody, where Gillis hawks a tried-and-true medication for men facing anxiety and depression: Just down a couple beers! His confidence goes through the roof, and he uses the wonder drug to cope with everything from 'winter' to 'museum.' (Watch it here.) No frills or cameos here: This is just a good old-fashioned hilarious sketch, led by new featured player Ashley Padilla as a wife who tells embarrassingly horrible jokes at a company dinner. (Or just one embarrassingly horrible joke, really. Over and over again.) Padilla's magnificently over-the-top delivery won our hearts immediately. She better be back next season, Lorne. SNL pays tribute to a cultural staple with this fake ad for every older woman's favorite accessory: little red glasses! (They say, 'I teach Philosophy of Dance, and I eat tapas every night.') Lady Gaga's Noo Yawk accent is fantastically on point here, and the heightening rises to absurd levels: 'I have a Celestial Seasonings credit card!' Two keys to making a great SNL sketch: (1) Give Kenan Thompson a crazy character to play, and (2) let him cook. Here, he plays rock'n'roll legend Little Richard, who repeatedly pops up on a cheesy '90s family sitcom for some reason. We're not asking too many questions; we'll just enjoy Thompson letting out joyous 'woooo's and delivering the immortal line: 'I'm sorry that your goddamn dog died.' Who is Lord Gaga? Why, he's Lady Gaga's husband, of course! Mikey Day brings the perfect air of snooty pomposity to this Weekend Update character, who is the heir to a vast textile empire and condescendingly applauds his wife's little 'hobby' in the arts. ('If only it all paid, eh?') But the joke goes to another level when Lord Gaga mocks the very idea of a man being outearned by his wife… while Colin Jost (husband to Scarlett Johansson) just sits there and seethes. Season 50's cameo cavalcade peaked in this cold open, with Martin Short getting inducted into SNL's vaunted Five-Timers Club by a glitzy parade of A-list luminaries led by Tom Hanks and Paul Rudd. The sheer star wattage here is almost overwhelming, but they bring the jokes, too, including Kristen Wiig's weird sexual energy and a delightful reunion of 30 Rock stars Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin. For SNL junkies, this is a real Christmas gift. This glorious Weekend Update character, with Bowen Yang playing the cute baby hippo that became a viral sensation, offers both high and low comedy. On one hand, we get a painfully pretentious Moo Deng complaining about his sudden fame, a la Chappell Roan. ('I will not be making an endorsement in this year's election.') And on the other, we get Yang in a hippo suit trying to drink water from a hose fired right at his face. Truly the best of both worlds. Walton Goggins turns the sleaze factor up to 11 for this riotous sketch, playing a wildly flirty waiter entertaining a pair of middle-aged moms at a Mother's Day brunch — and annoying their sons. Goggins sells it with his suggestively unbuttoned shirt and his smooth Southern drawl, hitting on the ladies with outrageous lines like when he told the sons: 'You got to spend nine months inside your mama, I'm just trying to get 20 minutes.' (Watch it here.) Here, host Jon Hamm and Bowen Yang play a gay couple who bring their new baby to a get-together — only their friends gently point out that they didn't have a baby a day ago. Hamm and Yang treat their friends' very reasonable questions about where the baby came from as wildly offensive homophobic slurs. ('People think they can ask gay people anything! It's not OK!') Plus, we kind of love Hamm and Yang's chemistry as a couple. We 'ship them! Hear us out! Andy Samberg and his Lonely Island pals make a triumphant return to SNL with this absolute banger, with Samberg and Akiva Schaffer pitching a stuffy business boardroom on their new innovation: a sushi glory hole. ('Instead of strange d—k, you'd be getting a snack.') Now we're not saying we'd kneel down in a dirty bathroom stall just to enjoy some high-end raw fish… but the song is pretty convincing. Michael Longfellow is deliciously sadistic as the host of this game show sketch, which simply asks contestants to correctly name a person. John Mulaney plays a sanctimonious contestant who claims to be an expert on politics… but can't even name Hillary Clinton's VP pick Tim Kaine when he's standing right in front of him. (Kaine is a very good sport about it, too.) And when the host challenges Mulaney's contestant to remember the name of a single one of the Black victims of police violence he had once tweeted out with the hashtag #RememberTheirNames, calling him 'pal of mine' in the process? Chef's kiss. (Watch it here.) SNL's repetitive Trump parodies got tiresome by the end of Season 50, but they thankfully find a new twist on it here by satirizing the HBO hit The White Lotus and putting Donald Trump and his family on an ill-fated trip to Thailand. Scarlett Johansson reprises her role as Ivanka Trump, Chloe Fineman's impression of Parker Posey (sorry, Melania Trump) is perfectly spot-on, and Jon Hamm delivers a pretty nifty RFK Jr. to boot. (We'll just ignore the cheap swipe taken at Aimee Lou Wood's teeth.)
