　　La Maison will take a behind-the-curtain look at how a family dynasty of an iconic fashion house is thrown into scandal and reinvention by a viral video featuring star designer Vincent LeDu, leaving his family’s legendary haute couture house hanging by a thread. Perle Foster, Vincent’s former muse who is still in his shadow, teams up with next-generation, visionary designer Paloma Castel to save and recreate the century-old Maison LEDU, claiming their rightful place in both the LeDu family and the fashion world.

　　Ryan Murphy dropped a teaser for a new series titled Grotesquerie in an Instagram post (see it below) on Friday. According to the post, it will star Niecy Nash-Betts — who has worked with Murphy several times before and is coming off an Emmy win for Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story — Courtney B. Vance and Lesley Manville and is set to premiere in the fall.
　　The teaser features Nash-Betts’ voice, sounding very disturbed about a crime scene: “I don’t know when it started. I can’t put my finger on it. But it’s different now. There’s been a shift. It’s like something’s opening up in the world — a kind of hole to the center of nothingness. What I saw today — they sent shrinks for everyone who worked this crime scene. You think, ‘Well hon, evil has always existed,’ and cite some statistic about how the world’s getting better, less murder, more help, less global horror, never been a better time to be alive, honey.”
　　Her voice cracking, Nash-Betts (or rather, her character) concludes by saying, “Come back. It’s not getting better. And I keep needing to hear your answers, because something’s happening around us, and nobody sees but me.”

　　《天才保姆》（The Nanny，港译《超级保姆》）是一部美国CBS播放的电视情景喜剧。1993年11月3日始播，1999年结束，共六季。背景设在纽约曼哈顿，讲述一位犹太保姆在一户英国贵族家庭工作、生活的搞笑故事。
　　
　　播出六年，在美国收视率很高，在其他一些国家人气也很旺，引进海外情景喜剧不多的中国大陆也播放过。此剧是极少数主角是犹太人的成功美国情景喜剧之一，也是美国近年来少数围绕著女性人物为中心的情景喜剧之一。女主角保姆由弗兰·卓雪（Fran Drescher）扮演，剧集中保姆很多亲戚的名字就是借鉴卓雪的真实亲友而来。此剧的执行制作人是弗兰·卓雪本人和她当时的丈夫马克·雅格森。
　　
　　犹太姑娘弗兰·范原本住在纽约王后区，故事开头被意大利男友兼老板甩掉，被迫到曼哈顿上东区一户富裕人家推销化妆品。户主是百老汇制作人麦克斯韦尔·谢菲尔德，英格兰贵族血统，鳏夫，膝下三个孩子。麦克斯误以为她来应征保姆工作，阴差阳错就开始了弗兰在谢菲尔德家的搞笑生活。
　　
　　弗兰的最大特点是鼻音极重（女主演本人就是这样），而且经常用怪声大喊大叫，很多观众可能无法忍受。她平时衣著极为俗艳，发型膨大，夸张怪异的举止言行和拘谨严肃的谢菲尔德一家格格不入，教育孩子的方法也十分古怪，上流社会和平民阶层、英裔美国人文化和犹太文化之间的撞击使笑话层出不穷。三个孩子中大女儿没有自信；儿子调皮捣蛋；小女儿心态早熟，看心理医生是家常便饭，满嘴都是心理学术语。保姆诚实善良、当机立断、亲情至上的性格慢慢为家庭中带来了欢乐，让一家人心态更加健康，她也完全融入了家中生活。
　　
　　管家奈尔斯机敏幽默，监视偷听家里发生的各种搞笑事情，运用自己的讽刺智慧和形象的语言一次次帮助大家解决问题。他很快意识到弗兰能够为家里带来温暖，总是站在她一边，同时还以捉弄嘲讽男主人的工作搭档茜茜为生活乐趣。茜茜是个恶毒冷淡没人爱（连她自己的狗都不喜欢她）的女强人，一直对麦克斯有企图，视弗兰为死敌，但还要一天到晚应对管家的各种捉弄和欺负。
　　
　　从一开始男女主角两人就互有好感，但两人都过于害羞始终没有挑明。编剧也一直用这个线索来制造各种笑话。第五季结尾两人终于成婚，第六季生下一对双胞胎。最让观众吃惊的是茜茜和管家多年互相捉弄攻击后，最终也走到了一起。
　　
　　弗兰的犹太老妈无时无刻不来看她，经常从孩子们的盘子里偷食物（因为“小孩子吃不下这么大的东西”），总是唠叨催女儿早点结婚。弗兰的犹太姥姥则是个大烟枪，和弗兰老妈一样兴趣就是把弗兰和男主人撮合到一起。
　　
　　
　　此剧一来人气很旺，二来犹太人是主角，好莱坞和百老汇犹太人势力庞大，因此很多大明星都前来加盟客串过，最著名的包括席琳·狄翁、艾尔顿·约翰、休·格兰特、伊丽莎白·泰勒等等。当时美国总统比尔·克林顿的弟弟罗杰·克林顿也在剧中出现过好几次。

　　Fran has had a pen pal named Lenny since the first grade. Fran and Lenny, through their letters, get along famously, almost like boyfriend/girlfriend. They agreed early on never to exchange photographs, but Lenny, coming to New York, wants to meet Fran in person. Maxwell is anxious to meet Lenny as he feels he's in competition with Lenny. Fran, on the other hand, is nervous to meet Lenny as she has exaggerated who "Fran Fine" is in her letters. But Fran agrees to meet Lenny at the Russian Tea Room, each identifying the other by the red rose worn on their lapels. Again, Maxwell is anxious to see Lenny, and accompanies Fran to the Russian Tea Room and stays with her until Lenny shows up. Fran and Maxwell are having a nice enough "date" of their own while they wait for Lenny, so nice that Fran almost doesn't care if Lenny shows up or not.

　　On Fran and Maxwell's honeymoon aboard the yacht, Fran falls overboard and Maxwell jumps in to rescue her. They manage to make it to a deserted island. There, they have some good times and bad times in their survival, but the worst ends up being a poisonous bite that Maxwell receives. He thinks he's going to die, but luckily for him, Fran watched daytime television in the past which gave her the necessary skills to tend to his illness. Meanwhile, they are noticed missing when the yacht docked at its first port without them. The Sheffield kids, Sylvia and Niles fear the worst. After a week of the Coast Guard not being able to locate any sign of Fran and Maxwell dead or alive, C.C. decides to take matters into her own hands.

　　If not for C.C. walking in on them, Maxwell and Fran would have done it in the hospital bed next to Niles. After the fact, Fran is encouraged that finally something is happening between them. Maxwell on the other hand is still uncertain, and gets some glib advice from Niles to preoccupy Fran with some meaningless project, like redecorating a room, to give him more time to figure out what to do. Fran sees right through what Maxwell's doing. Sylvia sees Maxwell's ploy as letting Fran into his life and his home, especially as the room in question is the sanctuary: the kitchen. Fran initially wants to do all the work herself, much like Maxwell's first wife, Sarah, did with the house, but Sylvia convinces Fran to enlist the help of Fran's flamboyant decorator cousin, Sheila.

　　这部BBC伪纪录片式喜剧讲述了BBC为深入了解如今在英国农村地区的年轻人感到的前所未有边缘化，在科兹沃尔德地区村庄跟拍了一些年轻人。这是Charlie Cooper和Daisy May Cooper姐弟俩根据自身经历自编自演的伪纪录片式喜剧，他们名不见经传，不久前还无业住在父母家，浑浑噩噩一事无成，以此经历改编的故事却成了这部热门BBC喜剧。

　　该剧改编自喜剧演员Bridget Everett的真实经历，讲她一个土生土长的堪萨斯人努力适应这里生活方式的故事。

　　The plot tells of how an armed robbery takes place on the bus line connecting the airport with various cities in the vicinity of Barcelona. The upshot is that three assailants are dead and one person has an arrest warrant on his head, with six witnesses unable to identify the fugitive. Officer Fran Garza (played by Pablo Molinero) and his professional partner – and ex – Rebeca Quirós (Ana Polvorosa) suspect that the witnesses are not telling the truth: they all claim not to have seen the killer’s face, but everything points to them having made a pact of silence to protect the person on the run. Soon enough, the case goes viral, and public opinion swings in support of the criminal, using the hashtag #YouWouldDoTheSame.
