Stephan James' Carl Weathers is A+ as well. <p><strong>The Background</strong>: Nick Venable is an Assistant Managing Editor, and the TV Editor. His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy. His love for his wife and daughters is almost equaled by his love of gasp-for-breath laughter and gasp-for-breath horror. A lifetime spent in the vicinity of a television screen led to his current dream job, as well as his knowledge of too many TV themes and ad jingles.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What He's Into</strong>: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What He's Excited About</strong>: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.</p>
Rocky's commentary is amaze! <p><strong>The Background</strong>: Kelly joined CinemaBlend as a freelance TV news writer in 2006 and went on to serve as the site’s TV Editor before moving over to other roles on the site. At present, she’s an Assistant Managing Editor who spends much of her time brainstorming and editing feature content on the site. </p><p><strong>What She's Into</strong>: Books, movies, TV— The very things that brought her to CinemaBlend as a reader and eventual writer and editor. She loves Harry Potter, books from a variety of genres (sci-fi, mystery, horror, YA, drama, romance -- anything with a great story and interesting characters.), watching Big Brother, frequently rewatching The Office, listening to Taylor Swift, and playing The Sims. </p><p><strong>What She's Excited About Right Now</strong>: Movie and TV adaptations of the books she loves, including the upcoming adaptation of Andy Weir's <em>Project Hail Mary</em>, which she's confident will be amazing, and Netflix's planned movie adaptations of Taylor Jenkins Reid's <em>The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo </em>and Richard Osman's <em>The Thursday Murder Club</em>. She's also excited for <em>Red, White & Royal Blue 2</em> and <em>Dark Matter</em> Season 2. </p>

I'm shivering with antici...pation.
It's an underdog story to be sure.
And now for something completely different.
Despite multiple successful franchises, Sylvester Stallone's career had a dark period.
Somebody's been eating humble pie for 30+ years.
It doesn't really matter, does it? Oh, it does. It does very much.
It's wild to see the numbers on this fight.
Give yourself over to absolute pleasure.
I think it was the right call.
Somebody cue up the Rocky theme song.
He couldn’t get no satisfaction, but it makes me shiver with antici…
