In "alex, inc." Alex Schuman (Zach Braff) is a successful radio producer with a whip-smart, public defender wife, Arunima and two confident, quirky children, Ben and Soraya. After years of making the kind of content that brings no creative fulfillment, in what most would consider an early mid-life crisis, Alex decides to risk everything - including his savings - to start his own business. Armed only with the help of his overenthusiastic producer, Deirdre, and his fast-talking, unemployed second cousin Eddie, Alex navigates the crazy world of start-ups while trying to keep his marriage and family a priority.

Eve's life as a spy is not adding up to what she had hoped it would be when she started. She is a bored, very smart, MI5 security officer who is very desk-bound. Villanelle (Jodie Comer) is a very talented killer who clings to the luxuries of her job. Eve and Villanelle go head to head in a fierce game of cat and mouse, each woman equally obsessed with the other as Eve is tasked with hunting down the psychopathic assassin. Comer stopped by to tell us about her new BBCA series, "Killing Eve."

On her full-length debut "Somewhere in Between", VÉRITÉ shows a self-possessed intensity shaped by years of working as a decidedly independent artist. In creating the album, she collaborated with producers in New York and London and L.A. and immersed herself in a more experimental process than she’d ever attempted before. As executive producer of the album, VÉRITÉ blended organic and electronic elements into a rhythm-driven sound that’s ornately arranged but charged with raw feeling.

Of the 33,000 people who die from gun violence in this country each year, how many could be saved?

Watch Kris Brown, co-president of the organization, and Gisela Marin, whose daughter was a victim of a tragic shooting, as they speak on how to prevent gun violence.

In her first book, Kristin Cavallari shared her personal journey along with her tips on everything from style to relationships. And now, with "True Roots," Cavallari shows readers that improving the way you eat doesn’t have to be difficult―a clean and toxin-free diet can and should be fun, easy, and enjoyable. She learned the hard way that dieting leads nowhere good, and that a clean lifestyle is the ticket to feeling and being healthy. Her recipes are proof that a healthy lifestyle isn’t boring or bland.

Vivica A. Fox is a dynamo who has created a lasting career on her own, through sheer, roll-up-your-sleeves DIY hustle. "Every Day I'm Hustling" is a personal book with a message Fox passionately believes in: that you make your own luck, that you never ever wake up in the morning thinking somebody’s going to call you and offer you that part or ask you out on that date that’s going to change your life, that you have to wake up and put on your longest eyelashes and fiercest heels and go out and make your life happen yourself.

In "Perfect Is Boring," Tyra Banks and her mother, Carolyn London, get raw, real and cray-in-a-good-way as they share what they’ve learned on Tyra’s journey from insecure preteen to supermodel and entrepreneurial powerhouse. Though she’ll be the first to tell you she is not her daughter’s best friend—‘cause she ain’t that kinda mama!—there’s no doubt that Carolyn’s signature mix of pep talks and tough love got Tyra to where she is today, and here they pay it forward to empower readers with a reminder that perfect really isn’t all that. "Perfect Is Boring" is a must-read for anyone who needs a kick in the booty, a pat on the back, or a good reason to laugh-out-loud.
