And it's not all sanitized. There are plenty of warts in this "warts and all" documentary but that was always how a singer-songwriter famed for his honesty was going to have it. As the Emmy-winning filmmakers Susan Lacy and Jessica Levin have confirmed, "He just told us to tell the truth."
That truth includes incredible success over decades with all-time classics such as "Piano Man", "Just The Way You Are" and "Always A Woman To Me" but also three divorces, a motorcycle accident that threatened to curtail his ability at the piano and the traumatising discovery of how the holocaust affected his family.

Susan Lacy (Director and producer): 'For those who think they know Joel's story, as well as those who are not as familiar, I believe this two-part film is both a revelation and a surprise. I was drawn to his story as someone who knew little at the outset, and was astounded at how autobiographical his songs are and how complex his story is. We are gratified that Bill trusted us with his story, which we have told as honestly as possible, diving into territory which has not been explored before.'

Beyoncé makes history with highest grossing country tour, earning over $400 million
Beyoncé Knowles-Carter concluded her groundbreaking "Cowboy Carter" tour in Las Vegas, making history with the highest grossing country tour as she surpassed $400 million in earnings. The Grammy-winning singer took her final bow on her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour at Allegiant Stadium in Vegas on July 26. She ended her run with a bang, bringing out Destiny's Child, Jay-Z and Shaboozey for surprise performances. The concert signaled the end of her "Cowboy Carter" era — a 32-stop stadium tour that spanned the U.S. and Europe. The nine-city stint grossed over $400 million with attendance over 1.5 million in its three-month run, according to Live Nation. Billboard reported Beyoncé's "Cowboy Carter" tour is the highest grossing country tour of all time and the shortest tour in any genre to make over $400 million. Beyoncé extends her record as the highest grossing Black artist of all time and the highest-grossing R&B artist of all time. With her "Cowboy Carter" tour, she also becomes the first woman and the first American act to have two separate tours gross over $400 million. Billboard reported Coldplay, Ed Sheeran and The Rolling Stones are the only other acts that have accomplished this feat. Beyoncé's Renaissance World Tour — Act 1 — reportedly grossed $580 million in 2023. As fans know, Beyoncé first debuted the highly anticipated show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on April 28 with 39 songs on the set list. The tour proved to be a revolutionary spectacle filled with fashion, different music genres and most notably country music and cultural commentary as she challenged industry norms. The megastar first released her eighth studio album, "Cowboy Carter," in March 2024. It has since made history and broken multiple records. As Beyoncé's first country album, she deliberately featured country legends and emerging Black country artists alike.

The 21 Best TV Shows of 2025 (So Far)
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." When my colleague Josh Rosenberg and I updated this list in the spring, we couldn't shut up about how floored we were by 2025's initial TV efforts. Right off the bat, the small screen smothered us with future Emmy contenders: The Pitt, Paradise, The Studio, The Last of Us, The White Lotus, and Severance. Insane, right? In 2024, I would've been entirely satisfied if those were the only top-tier shows we saw all year. Turns out, it was time for a heat check. As soon as we published our update in April, the TV calendar slowed down to a screeching halt. Save for a few (also exceptional) shows that you'll see below—Andor, The Rehearsal, and The Bear, mainly—it's been a quiet summer for TV fans. Thankfully, we're staring down a loaded fall TV season, which will include another Pennsylvania-set throwdown from the Mare of Eastown creator (Task), the prestige sci-fi series we've been waiting for (Alien: Earth), and a long-awaited spin-off of The Office (The Paper). But let's not get too ahead of ourselves. For now, here are the best TV shows of the year so Over two months since Andor aired its series finale, I'm still in awe of how creator Tony Gilroy and co. managed to land such a searing political statement on Mickey Mouse's streaming service. In season 1, the prequel to 2016's Rogue One established itself as the best thing a Star Wars-branded anything has done since, well... Rogue One. But its Andor's second and (criminally)final season that cemented its legend. Gilroy pulled off too many triumphs to list here, but chief among them is an achingly relevant takedown of authoritarianism—and cowardly, power-hungry leaders. And the fact that Diego Luna was not nominated for an Emmy for his work in Andor? It's a shame.—Brady Langmann Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeThe Rehearsal It's no secret that Nathan Fielder's brand of comedy isn't for everyone. It's a brutal fact that haunts the comedian himself, despite his genius writing. So, it's entirely understandable that his HBO comedy series aims to help people rehearse important moments in their lives so that they seem less awkward when the big day arrives. In season 2, Fielder sets his sights on solving problems in the airline industry—specifically, communication between pilots before a crash. As with everything Fielder explores, this niche issue becomes a metaphor for humanity's failure to effectively communicate in any setting in the world. Add in a dash of Evanescence needle drops and Sully Sullenberger puppets and you have one of the most essential comedies on TV.—Josh Rosenberg Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeAmerica's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders We're officially living in the age of Peak Sports Documentary—but that doesn't mean all of them are good. In fact, most of them are... well, not good. Allow me to cleanse your palate with America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, which (aside from the phenomenal direction of Greg Whiteley, whom you'll hear more about below) which does far more than chronicle the life and times of the NFL performers. Season 2 of the docuseries is a portrait of friendship, young adulthood, and what it means to stand up to an institution to reap what you're worth. Also, "Thunderstruck" still rocks. —B.L. Watch on Netflix See the original post on YoutubeThe Bear After The Bear filled season 3 with celebrity cameos and drawn-out performances that led to a 'To Be Continued…' cliff-hanger, season 4 remembered what made The Bear work in the first place. The Bear isn't just about the restaurant; it's about the people who work there—especially Carmen Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White). So, season 4 finally explores the consequences of Carmy's breakdown at the end of season 2, and how his changed perspective will affect the restaurant moving forward. It culminates in a brilliant finale that just might set up the end of the series as we know it. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeMobLand Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren lead this mob drama for Paramount+ about a London crime family who are in way over their heads. Brosnan and Mirren play the batshit and highly entertaining leaders of the Harrigan family, while Hardy acts as the fixer called in clean-up the problem after they muck it up. It's a hard job, especially because the Harrigans can create quite the mess. Is MobLand's plot a little nutty? Sure. Is it full of powerhouse performances from A-listers who feel like they don't belong in a show called MobLand? You bet. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeOvercompensating There's only been a few TV show pitches from TikTok creators that actually pan out—and Overcompensating, starring celebrity impressionist Benito Skinner, is by far the best yet. The Prime Video comedy series follows a closeted former high school football star who goes off to college and attempts to emulate the straight and cis males at his new school. Of course, they're overcompensating to impress their toxic peers as well. Overcompensating smartly displays a vicious cycle where everyone is hiding their true selves and acting out just to fit in. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeThe Pitt If you forced me to declare the best show of the year right now, The Pitt and Severance are my 1A and 1B. Who has the edge? The Pitt, if only because I don't want to live in a world where we don't have The Pitt. Out of what felt like nowhere, The Pitt gave us 15 episodes depicting one 15-hour shift at a Pittsburgh hospital, with no music and at least a dozen performances worth shouting out. The commitment of The Pitt's creative team—including ER veteran Noah Wyle—to maintaining medical accuracy while tackling what feels like all of America's problems at once? I truly can't find words for it. Wyle deserves the Emmy. —B.L. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeSeverance There's so much to love—admire, really—about what Severance pulled off in its sophomore effort. (And I mean that. My recaps this season went well past 2,500 words each.) For its shout-out here, I just want to say how damn well written season 2 is. Season 1 lobbed up a wild amount of characters, storylines, and mysteries for its next batch of episodes to deal with. Somehow Severance was not only bold enough to answer so many of its biggest questions, but it did so in a way that somehow satisfied just about all of its rabid fans. And while I'll give The Pitt my best-of-the-year crown for now, Severance has the greatest episode of the year in the Jessica Lee Gagné–directed 'Chikhai Bardo.' —B.L. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeAmerican Primeval American Primeval asks the question: What is the worst time to live in American history? Director Peter Berg decided on the Utah War of 1857—and after watching all six episodes, it's hard to say he wasn't dead-on. The limited series on Netflix starring Taylor Kitsch and Betty Gilpin is violent, dark, and unforgiving. It's also one of the most entertaining (and contained!) tales of the old West that I've seen on TV today. And I've watched a lot of Yellowstone. —J.R. Watch on Netflix See the original post on YoutubeThe White Lotus My (occasional!) frustration with this season of The White Lotus is well-documented. Still, a down year for series creator Mike White is much better than the rest of 2025's slate. In season 3's jaunt to Thailand, White explored themes of spirituality, violence, generational trauma, and the depths of the North Carolina accent. Not every character's arc resonated this time around, but as usual, a stellar ensemble cast—Parker Posey, Carrie Coon, and Aimee Lou Wood are easily this season's MVPs—made for genuine appointment viewing. And I doubt that will change when season 4 rolls around. —B.L. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeParadise Looking for twists? Every episode of Paradise ends in the cliff-hanger of the decade. Let me give you an example. The president of the United States (James Marsden) is assassinated in the first episode, and that isn't even the most exciting thing that happens over the course of the series. No, the real kicker is that Special Agent Xavier Collins (Sterling K. Brown) and the entire town of Paradise lives in a man-made bunker deep in the Colorado mountains because a cataclysmic event occurred on Earth's surface. Created by Dan Fogelman (This Is Us), Paradise is a campy, wild ride that makes for excellent popcorn TV. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeThe Last of Us The Last of Us broke a Hollywood curse during its first season. The postapocalyptic drama starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey was the first series to successfully adapt a video game to the screen with near universal critical acclaim. Sure, it helps that The Last of Us's source material is basically an interactive movie. But Chernobyl director Craig Mazin and the game's creator, Neil Druckmann, still managed to pull off an incredible feat. As they look to expand the story by adapting the second game over (potentially) three more seasons, it looks like Mazin and Co. have achieved the impossible yet again. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeHacks In its fourth season, Hacks could've simply repeated the hits—meaning, some light bickering between Ava (Hannah Einbinder) and Deborah (Jean Smart) leading to a happy, feel-good crescendo. But Hacks is too smart for that. Instead, just at the point when many long-running comedies slow down and fade away, Hacks dials up Ava and Deborah's hostility into a this-is-almost-not-funny-anymore place. Einbinder's and Smart's performances only deepen and grow more complex—and outright exciting—because of it. Also, Meg Statler and Paul W. Downs remain national treasures. —B.L. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeYour Friends & Neighbors Jon Hamm playing a rich dude with rich-dude problems? It should not only sound familiar but also better make you proceed past your Apple TV+'s free trial post-Severance. At times, Your Friends and Neighbors feels like someone smashed all of the top Apple TV+ series into one—the gooeyness of Ted Lasso, the divorced-dad antics of Shrinking, and the A-list bona fides of The Morning Show. Somehow, it works. Most of that, admittedly, is an unsurprisingly stellar performance from Hamm. —B.L. Shop Now See the original post on Youtube1923 Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan took on his most ambitious project yet with his limited-series prequel 1923. Starring Brandon Sklenar, Harrison Ford, and Helen Mirren, the period western told the story of the Dutton family in circa-1920s Montana with epic gunfights, long treks across America, and bitterly cold winters. I'd be lying to you if I didn't say it was one my most anticipated shows of the year. Thankfully, Sheridan delivered with an epic two-hour finale that ranks among some of his best work yet. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeThe Studio When I finished The Studio, I ran to a meeting and loudly (slash obnoxiously) declared it the best comedy of the streaming era. In the moment, it felt like a take I'd back down from later, but... it hasn't at all. Seth Rogen nails his takedown of modern Hollywood in a way only Seth Rogen can—with love, affection, razor-sharp satire, and that big goofy laugh on top of it all. The list of celebrities riffing on fictionalized versions of themselves—you're the GOAT, Martin Scorsese!—is too massive to name-check here. But rest assured, the main cast of Rogen, Chase Sui Wonders, Catherine O'Hara, Kathryn Hahn, and Ike Barinholtz absolutely eat the heck out of every single scene. —B.L. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeAdolescence The term 'essential viewing' is a TV-critic cliché—but I have to break it out here, because Adolescence absolutely is essential viewing. In telling the tragedy of the Miller family, whose young son commits a heinous crime in a fit of rage, Adolescence bottles up everything that is troubling about teenage boys right now. In only four hours, the series manages to put all of their loneliness, anger, and confusion on full display. The icing: a career-best turn from Stephen Graham, as well as the thundering introduction of 15-year-old actor (and surefire future star, if he isn't already) Owen Cooper. —B.L. Watch on Netflix See the original post on YoutubeThe Righteous Gemstones It's sad that every time I return for one of these lists, I'm saying goodbye to another one of TV's greatest comedies. Last year, both Curb Your Enthusiasm and What We Do in the Shadows aired their final seasons. That was painful enough! In 2025, Hollywood adds The Righteous Gemstones to the list of dearly departed comedies. The megachurch family romp starring Danny McBride, John Goodman, Walton Goggins, and Adam DeVine will live forever in our hearts. Now can I get an amen? —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeThe Clubhouse: A Year with the Red Sox I swear that I write some combination of these words every year: Sports documentarian Greg Whiteley's work is some of the most essential storytelling on TV right now. And just as baseball season rolls around every year, so does a new docuseries from the man behind Wrestlers, Last Chance U, Cheer, and America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. This time, a major professional sports team—the Boston Red Sox—finally allowed Whiteley inside its doors. Whiteley's profiles of Red Sox stars Triston Casas, Brayan Bello, and Jarren Duran are nothing short of incredible. Even if you're not known as someone who would show up to Fenway Park just to sing 'Sweet Caroline,' you don't want to leave The Clubhouse out of your queue. —B.L. Watch on Netflix See the original post on YoutubeThe Traitors After hearing everyone talk about The Traitors on end for two seasons, I finally dabbled with the Mafia-esque competition show for season 3. The Bachelor's Gabby Windey and RuPaul's Drag Race's Bob the Drag Queen were two large draws for me as an occasional reality-TV fan (though admittedly not a reality-TV stan), but my main concern was that I was not entering the series knowing the backstories of the multiple Survivor, Big Brother, and Housewives alums. Turns out, none of that mattered. These reality-TV personalities are here because they're entertaining enough on their own. Plus, there isn't enough praise in the world for how much Alan Cumming commits to the bit. —J.R. Shop Now See the original post on YoutubeRunning Point If The Studio didn't exist, I'd tell you that Running Point is far and away the best comedy of the year so far. Kate Hudson's basketball sitcom does something ingenious: It effectively makes a half-hour comedy out of Los Angeles Lakers president Jeanie Buss's life and career. (Buss is a co-executive producer on the series.) The series follows Isla Gordon (Hudson), who is the new president of the fictional Los Angeles Waves basketball squad. She faces all sorts of things that I bet Buss faces in real life—meddling brothers, diva-like superstars, Pat McAfee–esque talking heads—and the result is (I have to say it, sorry) a slam dunk. Oh, and Chet Hanks has a prominent role in the series. And he is damn good. —B.L.

This Miami restaurant has a Michelin star and an award-winning chef. Now it's closing
Another Michelin-starred Miami restaurant is closing, this one from a celebrated James Beard Award-winning chef. Itamae Ao, the stunning 10-seat Peruvian-Japanese restaurant in Midtown from Chef Nando Chang, has announced that it's closing, with the final service Saturday, Aug. 2. The announcement comes a month after Maty's, the Peruvian restaurant operated by Chang's sister Valerie, also a James Beard Award winner, shut down. Itamae Ao's future was immediately uncertain: It's accessed through the adjoining Maty's space, and with Maty's closure, there was no way for customers to enter the smaller restaurant. Chang, who said he is looking for a new home for his award-winning concept, said he was grateful for 'the great run we've had in this special space.' 'Itamae AO has always been closely tied to Maty's — not just because my sister was its chef but because it literally serves as the entrance to our restaurant,' he said. 'When she stepped away, we knew it would soon be time for us to move on as well. Itamae AO isn't going away, and I'm excited to find our new home.' This summer, while he actively seeks a new space, Chang plans to take Itamae on the road with pop-ups in Milwaukee and New York City. The Changs entered the Miami restaurant industry with their father Fernando, operating the original Itamae counter at a Design District food hall. Later, they opened the restaurant as a standalone. Valerie Chang went on to open Maty's, earning the James Beard Award for Best Chef: South in 2024; her brother earned the same award in 2025, a two months after Itamae Ao earned a Michelin star. The guide praised Chang's skill with classic Peruvian-Japanese flavors. 'Searing levels of acidity and spice figure prominently on this bold tasting menu, often in the form of leche de tigre,' the guide says. 'From lobster bisque with sweet potato gnocchi to creamy rice with Hokkaido scallops and parmesan, the cooking possesses style and substance in spades.' At the Michelin ceremony in Orlando, Chang delivered an emotional speech, thanking his family and the city where he has found a home. 'I want to say I could not be prouder . . . to be a part of this beautiful country,' he said. 'Thank you, America, and thank you, Miami. ' He also thanked the James Beard Foundation for their commitment to diversity: 'All food is immigrant and immigrants make America great.'
