‘Foundation’ Returns With Its Best Season Yet

Foundation is not a show that lends itself to casual viewing. Its nuances and details, not to mention its constantly shifting settings, mean you must pay close attention to understand what’s happening. It’s also not really a show you can decide to start watching midway through, something to consider ahead of its third season premiere. But the rewards are worth it: it’s wildly entertaining—thanks to its writing, layered world-building, and performances—and while it’s a show that deals with very

Android 16 review: Post-hype

Google recently released Android 16, which brings a smattering of new features for Pixel phones, with promises of additional updates down the road. The numbering scheme has not been consistent over the years, and as a result, Android 16 is actually the 36th major release in a lineage that stretches back nearly two decades. In 2008, we didn't fully understand how smartphones would work, so there was a lot of trial and error. In 2025, the formula has been explored every which way. Today's smartpho

New Process Uses Microbes to Create Valuable Materials from Urine

Researchers from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), UC Irvine, and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), have used biology to convert human urine into a valuable product. The team genetically modified yeast to take the elements present in urine and create hydroxyapatite – a calcium and phosphorus-based mineral naturally produced by humans and other animals to build bones and teeth. Commercially manufactured hydroxyapatite is used in surgery and dentistry to

'Squid Game' Is Back! Here's How to Watch Season 3 on Netflix

The third and final season of Squid Game is here. Get ready, the final games are about to begin. The second season of Netflix's global hit series ended on a cliffhanger, leaving the fates of Gi-hun/Player 456 (Lee Jung-jae) and the rest of the players in question. How will Gi-hun get his revenge against the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun)? Will Jun-ho find the island in time to bring the ones behind these death gauntlets to justice? It's possible, but writer-director Hwang Dong-hyuk has created a wor

The Final Scene of ‘Squid Game’ Is a Cop-Out

Squid Game’s final season is here at last, revealing the fates of the show’s heroes and villains. That includes Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), the shell of a man who returns to the deadly competition as Player 456, intent on bringing it all down from the inside. When we first met Gi-hun back in season one, he was a perpetual ne’er-do-well, sponging off his ailing mother to supply his gambling habit and routinely disappointing his young daughter. While he was off trying to win the 45.6 billion won, his

We’re learning more about what weight-loss drugs do to the body

We know they can suppress appetite, lower blood sugar, and lead to dramatic weight loss. We also know that they come with side effects, which can include nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. But we are still learning about some of their other effects. On the one hand, these seemingly miraculous drugs appear to improve health in other ways, helping to protect against heart failure, kidney disease, and potentially even substance-use disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. But on the other,

‘Squid Game’ Delivers a Harrowing, Heartbreaking Final Installment

Squid Game’s first season dropped seemingly out of the sky in 2021, spanning nine episodes and giving Netflix its biggest hit to date, winning Emmys for creator Hwang Dong-hyuk, star Lee Jung-jae, and others. Season two arrived in late 2024 with seven episodes, picking up three years after the events of season one. Six months later, season three is here; it has just six episodes and begins immediately after the season two cliffhanger. It’s tempting to wish Netflix had just released all of seaso

The 46 Best Shows on Hulu Right Now (July 2025)

While Netflix seemingly led the way for other streaming networks to create compelling original programming, Hulu actually beat them all to the punch. In 2011, a year before Netflix’s Lilyhammer and two years before the arrival of House of Cards, the burgeoning streamer premiered The Morning After, a pop-culture-focused news show that ran for 800 episodes over three years. Hulu has continued to make TV history in the years since, most notably in 2017 when it became the first streamer to win an E
