The Post Credits

Fares and Greg break down Episode 5 of HBO's Lanterns, titled "Lights Out" — the biggest turning point of the season! The Manhunter is finally unmasked as Zoe Macon (Poorna Jagannathan), Rushville is left in ruins, and the Guardians vote to strip Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) of the ring in favor of John Stewart (Aaron Pierre). We break down the explosive Hal vs. John confrontation, John briefly becoming Green Lantern before walking away from the ring, Kerry Kane's (Kelly Macdonald) hidden history with Zoe, and what this means heading into the back half of the season.

We also talk about the episode's pacing, direction, and whether "Lights Out" is the best hour of Lanterns yet.

Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are back as Sally and Gillian Owens — and Adelia, Brandi, and Justin are breaking down every twist, death, and curse-breaking moment from Practical Magic 2, in theaters now.

Is this the send-off the Owens sisters deserved, or does the sequel stumble trying to out-magic the original 1998 original? We've got thoughts. So grab your Midnight Margaritas, and let's dive into more Owens sisters lore.

Fares and Greg break down Episode 4 of HBO's Lanterns, titled "The Weenie" — the season's halfway point! Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) and John Stewart (Aaron Pierre) infiltrate William Macon's (Garret Dillahunt) compound hunting for the Manhunter, Sinestro (Ulrich Thomsen) hands Hal a crucial clue about Manhunter physiology, and the Guardians push John toward a shocking test of loyalty that could mean betraying his mentor.

We dig into the Manhunter reveal, Sheriff Kerry Kane's (Kelly Macdonald) growing role, the Hal/Kerry chemistry, the John/Zoe romance subplot, and whether this episode is the show's best hour yet or a sign of an identity crisis as critics are split down the middle.

Fares and Greg break down Episode 3 of HBO's Lanterns, titled "OutKast" — a bold, nonlinear origin story that finally reveals why John Stewart (Aaron Pierre) was chosen as a Green Lantern, framed as a job interview with a Guardian (Laura Linney). We dig into John's childhood, his father John Stewart Sr.'s (Sherman Augustus) rejection of Abin Sur's ring, and how this rewrites what we thought we knew about how Lanterns are chosen.

We also talk about the choice to pause the Rushville mystery and Sinestro cliffhanger from Episode 2, whether the flashback structure works this early in the season, and how this episode stacks up against the premiere and "Trust Fall."

🚨 Spoilers ahead for Lanterns Episode 3 "OutKast" 🚨

Fares and Greg dive into the first two episodes of HBO's Lanterns — the premiere and Episode 2, "Trust Fall" — starring Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan and Aaron Pierre as John Stewart! We break down the show's True Detective-inspired mystery in Rushville, Nebraska, the dual 2016/2026 timeline structure, John's rocky training arc, and the shocking arrival of Sinestro (Ulrich Thomsen) as the Manhunter threat comes into focus.

We talk performances, pacing, world-building, how the DCU's cosmic history ties into Superman and Peacemaker Season 2, and where we think this 8-episode mystery is headed.

🩸 Rhaenyra just stood in front of King's Landing and told them all a secret she swore she'd bury — and by the end of the hour, one Targaryen won't live to hear how it ends. This is the episode where the Dance stops being a war of dragons and becomes a war of nerve.

🐉 THE TREASONS AT TUMBLETON — Episode 8 Finale Recap & Reaction

The Battle of Tumbleton finally arrives, and it's every bit as brutal as the Gullet was back in Episode 1 — dragons, fire, and a body count that changes the shape of the war overnight. Back in King's Landing, Rhaenyra makes the boldest — and maybe most reckless — move of her reign yet, dragging the prophecy out of the shadows and demanding the crown validate her claim in front of the realm, even as the High Septon makes clear he won't play along. Helaena's story reaches its breaking point, and it's Mysaria — freshly cast out as Master of Whisperers — who lights the fuse. At Harrenhal, Aegon and Aemond reunite to plot their next move, and Aegon's return (half-burned face, Sunfyre and all) throws everything the Greens thought they knew into chaos. Justin and Greg break down the biggest, bloodiest hour of the season before the long wait for Season 4 begins.
