Also! An Orphan Black sequel, Danielle Brooks reacts to being cast in The Color Purple, bisexual Dutch speed skater Ireen Wüst has made history at the Winter Olympics, and more!

Whether you want a distraction or a boost in serotonin, this list of films, series, and YouTube gems should keep you going through family time.

The sun might leave us for 3-6 months out of the year, but my microwave never will.

“Being out of the closet is really intense when you’re related to Shelly Pfefferman.”
