About Fallout:
Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which thereâs almost nothing left to have. Two-hundred years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behindâand are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.
Ella Purnell is Lucy, an optimistic Vault-dweller with an all-American can-do spirit. Her peaceful and idealistic nature is tested when she is forced to the surface to rescue her father. Aaron Moten is Maximus, a young soldier who rises to the rank of squire in the militaristic faction called Brotherhood of Steel. He will do anything to further the Brotherhoodâs goals of bringing law and order to the wasteland. Walton Goggins is the Ghoul, a morally ambiguous bounty hunter who holds within him a 200-year history of the post-nuclear world.
The series stars Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets), Aaron Moten (Emancipation), Walton Goggins (The Hateful Eight), and Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks). The series cast also includes MoisĂ©s Arias (The King of Staten Island), Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks), Sarita Choudhury (Homeland), Michael Emerson (Person of Interest), Leslie Uggams (Deadpool), Frances Turner (The Boys), Dave Register (Heightened), Zach Cherry (Severance), Johnny Pemberton (Ant-Man), Rodrigo Luzzi (Dead Ringers), Annabel O’Hagan (Law & Order: SVU), and Xelia Mendes-Jones (The Wheel of Time).

This May Hollywood Suite calls up cinemaâs greatest detectives in Mystery May and holds no punches with our Fight Club collection of new & classic movies running On Demand and On Air throughout the month. Here are five must watch options this month:
Fight Club – Catch the best Fight Scenes from film history

Ali & Ava (2021) – An overlooked Romance
This romantic comedy didnât get the audience it deserved when it premiered in lockdown but this story of two middle-aged Brits finding an unlikely relationship in spite of their complicated lives is a huge crowd-pleaser. TV fans will likely recognize Adeel Akhtar (Utopia, The Big Sick) and Claire Rushbrook (Home Fires, My Mad Fat Diary) but this role allows them to wonderfully explore the joys and pains of trying to start a relationship with baggage in tow.
Mystery May – Hollywoodâs most thrilling
Nothing draws you into a movie like a good mystery and all month long weâve got the clues youâre looking for to head down the rabbit hole. Watch The Maltese Falcon (1941), The Conversation (1974) , Deathtrap (1982) , Double Jeopardy (1999) and Prisoners (2013) as well as many more On Demand and On Air.
The 40th Anniversary of Hardbodies (1984)
Perhaps the Crown Jewel of âMovies That Couldnât Be Made Todayâ (shouldnât?), 1984âs Hardbodies is cruising into middle age this month along with most of the 1980s sex comedy boom. While this film, originally produced for the Playboy channel but released theatrically, features plenty of sleaze keep an eye out for some of the biggest ladies in â80s Glam Metal as the band Vixen performs âComputer Madnessâ between the jokes.
Orson Welles Birthday – May 6thWhile Orson Welles may have been born over a century ago, his films still prove why he was one of the most memorable prodigies in Hollywood. Take a crash course in the master with a birthday Triple-bill including the iconic Citizen Kane (1941), the moving The Magnificent Ambersons (1942) and the deceptive F is for Fake (1973) on HS70
Though his popularity exploded after Netflix’s SOMEBODY FEED PHIL, Phil Rosenthal has changed the world with his talent as a Writer, Creator and Producer. If you love EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND, you’re already a fan of his work, being one of the masterminds behind the beloved Sitcom. SOMEBODY FEED PHIL, a hybrid travel and food show showcasing Rosenthal‘s charm front and center, has shown staying power, its viewership continuing to climb even after seven seasons. We hear an eighth season is very likely on the way.
Rosenthal spoke with Brad Smith at The Danforth Music Hall tonight, as part of his AN EVENING WITH PHIL ROSENTHAN OF SOMEBODY FEED PHIL Tour which was just in Buffalo and next heads to Ottawa. We were so lucky to get our hands on tickets to this amazing conversation, which saw a full house who even got to ask questions at the end in a Q&A period.
Some highlights from the night, including excerpts from his in-conversation:
We had the joy of meeting Rosenthal. Huge fan of his Series and cannot wait for some new episodes and maybe finally a Toronto episode!

Today, chart-topping vocal powerhouse Teddy Swims releases four new surprise tracks on Iâve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1.5). Listen HERE via Warner Records. The project includes his chart-conquering smash hit âLose Control,â which recently claimed the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100chart, hit #1 at Top 40 and Hot AC radio, and has surpassed 1 billion streams across all platforms.
Among the four new tracks on Iâve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1.5) is âHammer to the Heart,â a moody anthem with a stirring, stadium-ready chorus, âTell Me,â an understated alt-leaning offering that explores loss and heartbreak, and âApple Juice,â the kind of soulful throwback that Swims does better than anyone. Another unforgettable highlight is âGrowing Up Is Getting Old,â an acoustic treasure that captures the Atlanta nativeâs magnetism like never before.
âIâve Tried Everything but Therapy (1.5) is an extension to Part 1 of the album â this whole album is just me being honest,â Swims says of the new release. âYou know, Iâve been touring, writing, and continuing to work on myself over the past 8 months and wanted to share something like a real-life check-in. These songs represent where Iâm at and I didnât want to wait till I had the whole part 2 done â so here you go.â
As Swims himself relayed, life has not slowed down since his album dropped. He recently performed âLose Controlâ on American Idol and rolled out a new dazzling video for his viral track âThe Door.â On top of all that, Swims is currently making his way through the UK and Europe on his sold-out Iâve Tried Everything But Therapy tour. He will then continue the tour throughout New Zealand and Australiaâwhere he will make his arena headline debutâand Asia, before bringing it back stateside for more shows, including a performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago and Outside Lands in San Francisco. See the full list of upcoming tour dates below.
Putting in real work for years, a quiet, yet steady grind brought Swims to the forefront of popular culture as a tried-and-true star without comparison. Teddy started to gain notoriety after posting covers online in 2019 â such as Michael Jacksonâs âRock With Youâ and Shania Twainâs âYouâre Still The Oneâ â gaining hundreds of millions of views, leading to his signing to Warner Records in 2020. He tirelessly honed his voice and songwriting across EPs such as Unlearning [2021], Tough Love [2022], and Sleep Is Exhausting [2022]. He showcased his sky-high range by collaborating with artists such as Maren Morris, Meghan Trainor, X Ambassadors, Thomas Rhett, ILLENIUM, TiĂ«sto, Armin Van Buuren, and Matoma. He made a statement with Iâve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1) in 2023, and wrapped up a prolific run by releasing a Live Version of the album alongside his band Freak Freely at the top of 2024.
