BUILD Series

"No Activity," a comedy series from Funny Or Die and executive producers Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, marks CBS All Access’ first original comedy. In what should be a high-stakes sting operation, "No Activity" celebrates the mundane. This season, we’re back in Car 27 with Detectives Cullen and Tolbeck, two low-level cops who have spent far too much time in a car together, as they stake out the seedy underbelly of a cockfighting ring. Meanwhile, the SDPD is rocked by a massive corruption scandal, and the culprit might be close to home. Cristin Milioti and Tim Meadows took the BUILD stage to talk about the CBS All Access series.

Set in the year 2093, "Nightflyers" is a psychological thriller that follows a team of scientists aboard the Nightflyer, the most advanced ship ever built, as they embark on a journey to find other life forms. Their mission takes them to the edge of the solar system, and to the edge of insanity, as they realize true horror isn’t waiting for them in outer space—it’s already on their ship. Star Gretchen Mol came to BUILD to talk about the new Syfy series.

Christine Andreas, known for her Tony-nominated turns in "Oklahoma!" and "On Your Toes," released an album of music from her latest cabaret show, "Piaf: No Regrets."

Mike Love, legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member and co-founder/lead singer of The Beach Boys, released a new collection of holiday songs, "Reason For The Season." The 12-track album features an array of new holiday songs and Christmas classics that range from bright guitar and horn-filled pop and rock and tracks, and softer traditional carols and ballads. Sam Hollander (One Direction, Panic! at the Disco, Train) and Steve Greenberg (Hanson, AJR) produced five tracks on the album. This marks Love's second recording with Hanson as they collaborated on the summer single "It's OK" released in August 2018. Grammy-winning producer Michael Lloyd (Dirty Dancing) and The Beach Boys' musical director Scott Totten also served as producers on the album.

The third season of Netflix's "Travelers" finds Grant MacLaren (Eric McCormack) and his team of highly-trained operatives from the future pushed to the limit and dealing with themes of loyalty, trust, death, and the ever-growing power of Artificial Intelligence. With their existence now leaked to the world, the team must find a way to keep knowledge of the Travelers program from the general public, while continuing to perform missions under the watchful eye of the FBI. Each team member will face their own personal breaking point, all while trying to stop the Faction, hunt down elusive Traveler 001, and to save the world from a terrible future.

In preparation of his seventh studio album released earlier this year, Philadelphia singer-songwriter Amos Lee worked with nonprofit organizations Musicians On Call and Melodic Caring Project to play music bedside to hospital patients battling serious illnesses. The experience deeply affected him and inspired the new album, "My New Moon." But this is not a somber exercise; Lee gives each song a rocking, dignified treatment.

The news is filled with reports on the problems facing America, but it’s short on solutions. Enter Jon Dore, a Canadian comedian and self-described outsider who fancies himself the man with the plan in "Big Questions, Huge Answers with Jon Dore," a one-hour comedy special on Comedy Central. The special follows Dore as he workshops creative, if foolhardy, solutions to “the two biggest threats to our children’s safety: cyberbullying and predatory teachers.” Throughout the special, Jon is hilariously self-assured in his dubious undertakings.
