Tom's Guide22-07-2025
"The Hunting Wives" has arrived with quite a splash, offending and delighting critics and audiences alike. Not a new reality format, unfortunately, but an eight part drama that has been called both a "bonkers bi-sexual culture war soap" and "'Desperate Housewives' with the addition of streaming-TV-level sex"...

But there's a lot more to the show than just sex. Sophisticated East Coast political PR executive Sophie O'Neill (Brittany Snow) has moved to East Texas, reactionary right-wing Republican country, with her husband and a backstory full of secrets. She's in good company, everybody in this show has secrets. And issues.
Substance abuse, swinging, bisexual liaisons and infidelity are all very vanilla in "The Hunting Wives." And so we also have stalking, kidnap and murder.

Ted Cruz defends Sydney Sweeney amid American Eagle ad backlash

After an ad starring Sydney Sweeney outraged viewers, Sen. Ted Cruz is coming to her defense. The Texas Republican took to X July 29 to blast the "crazy left" for criticizing Sweeney's American Eagle denim jeans campaign as a dog whistle for eugenics and the glorification of whiteness. Responding to a New York Post article, which detailed the controversy, Cruz wrote: "Wow. Now the crazy Left has come out against beautiful women. I'm sure that will poll well…." Sydney Sweeney, an American Eagle ad campaign and why it sparked backlash Part of a larger partnership between the "Euphoria" actress and the popular clothier, the ad campaign used wordplay to describe Sweeney as having "good genes," with the latter word doing double duty, meaning not just her DNA but also the denim on her body (which was American Eagle made). Soon after the campaign dropped, people began to sound the alarm on what they saw as a dangerous message about the beauty ideal, race and "good" versus "bad" genes. Cruz joined a parade of notables adding their two cents, including "Bachelor" star Gabby Windey and even Doja Cat, who mocked the ad in a TikTok video. In one of several videos for the advertising blitz, Sweeney, clad in a denim-on-denim outfit, says: "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color." "My jeans are blue," she says as the camera pans across her blue denim and her blue eyes. Sydney Sweeney critics compare jeans campaign to Brooke Shields' Calvin Klein ad Consumers were quick to point out what they saw as the regressive nature of the material. A blonde shown sensually, catering to the male gaze, they argued, was a stereotypical symbol of a bygone era. "How far back do you plan on going? Do you still wanna vote?" one commenter asked, while another chided: "You accept these jobs that objectify your body. Fight the patriarchy, don't join it." Even more concerning, critics argued, was the use of Sweeney as the archetype of "good genes." Defined generally as the use of selective breeding to "improve" the human race through emphasis on desirable traits, the pseudoscience of eugenics has a dark backstory, used in the past as a vehicle for racial violence and sterilization. Lifting Sweeney's genes up as "good," critics said, notches into a painful and dangerous history. That the controversy stems from a denim ad, and one from a company with "American" in the name, further complicates the reception. Americana and denim go hand in hand, the stiff fabric harkening back to cowboy culture, workmen's uniforms and other mythologized aspects of the national identity.

Neal McDonough Says ‘Hollywood Turned on Me' After ‘I Wouldn't Kiss Another Woman On-Screen': ‘I Couldn't Get a Job and I Lost Everything'

Neal McDonough, the veteran character actor who has appeared in everything from 'Band of Brothers' to 'Desperate Housewives,' 'Minority Report,' 'American Horror Story,' 'Suits' and more, revealed during an interview on the 'Nothing Left Unsaid' podcast (exclusive shared by TMZ) that Hollywood shut him out when he refused to kiss other actors on screen. McDonough has been married to Ruvé Robertson since 2003. The couple has five children together. 'I'd always had in my contracts I wouldn't kiss another woman on-screen,' McDonough said. 'My wife didn't have any problem with it. It was me, really, who had a problem with it. When I couldn't do it, and they couldn't understand it, Hollywood just completely turned on me. They wouldn't let me be part of the show anymore.'

'Not just houses and material things, but your swagger, your cool, who you are, your identity—everything. My identity was an actor, and a really good one. And once you don't have that identity, you're kind of lost in a tailspin.' McDonough has been acting since 1990 and just headlined the Angel Studios drama film 'The Last Rodeo,' in which he played a former bull-riding world champion who returns to the rodeo later in life in order to win money for his grandson's brain tumor surgery. The film opened in theaters in late May and grossed $15 million on a production budget in the $8 million range. In recent years, McDonough has been more known for his television work. He appeared on six episodes of 'Yellowstone' as Malcolm Beck and on seven episodes of '9-1-1: Lone Star' as Sergeant Ty O'Brien. He reunited with 'Yellowstone' creator Taylor Sheridan for a series regular role opposite Sylvester Stallone on the second season of 'Tulsa King,' which streams on Paramount+.

The Simpsons Creator's Hilarious Three-Word Solution To 'Free' MAGA Parents

The Simpsons has quite a history of predicting real-life events. In the year 2000, they predicted Trump would be president. In 1995, they predicted smart watches would be a thing. And they even predicted Greece's 2015 economic downturn in 2013. Matt Groening is the creator of The Simpsons, and he offered up some future predictions at a panel at San Diego Comic-Con. Variety reported his first prediction was that Elon Musk would be the first man to land on Mars. "The Simpsons predicts Elon Musk will be the first man to land on Mars. Amazingly, he will crash-land on Mars. But he will radio back that he is marooned there forever. And most emotionally of all, he will be able to hear the cheering all the way." His second prediction was that the Statue of Liberty would be given back to France. "America will return the Statue of Liberty to France and North America remembers what the word Liberty means." And the third prediction was about how kids would liberate their parents from MAGA. "The Simpsons predicts kids across America will liberate their Republican parents from the cult of MAGA. And here's how you do it. Grab the TV remote, go to menu, go to controls, vertical controls, look for channel list and delete Fox News." Yes, it's simple: "Delete Fox News." Now, let's see if these predictions come true.
