John Oliver aired a years-long grievance he evidently has with Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde — yes, you read that right — on Sunday’s Last Week Tonight. The HBO host’s main segment focused on the Supreme Court, specifically something called shadow dockets. “The Court has been repeatedly jumping into ongoing cases to say, ‘You know what, while this works its way through the courts, Trump should get to do the thing that he wants to do anyway,’” Oliver explained. “It’s basically a football referee saying, ‘Pending a final ruling on the legality of the quarterback having a gun, I’m…

Is Euphoria really Euphoria without Labrinth? That’s a big question that seems to be plaguing fans’ minds each week in the middle of season three. “It’s literally a whole different show atp,” one person commented on social media a day after episode three aired on April 26. As another viewer weighed in that same day, “I’m just realizing now I haven’t even been paying attention to the music and in past seasons.
