entertainmentThursday, June 25, 2026
Today's entertainment news is a mixed bag of nostalgia, new beginnings, and a few legal wins. Phoebe Bridgers' surprise pop-up show at Madison Square Garden made a statement by banning phones, while Millie Bobby Brown opens up about the end of 'Stranger Things.' The DCU's 'Supergirl' gets a mixed review, and Disney Lorcana shakes up its own rules.
Two stories today are about getting back to basics, whether by banning phones or revisiting a classic voice.
Phoebe Bridgers played a surprise pop-up at MSG with eight unreleased songs, and made it a phones-free event to keep the audience present. Two outlets covered it, which says something about how rare a no-device concert feels in 2026.
A profile of Stephen Root on finding Bill Dauterive's voice for 'King of the Hill.' It's a light piece, but Root's reflection on the show's enduring popularity gives it a nostalgic hook.
Franchises are wrapping up or starting fresh, with mixed results.
Millie Bobby Brown addresses Eleven's ambiguous fate in the 'Stranger Things' finale and her post-show relationships with the cast. Two outlets picked it up, making it the day's biggest streaming-news story.
The DCU's 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow' gets a review that calls it bright and bouncy but too familiar, a polite way of saying it doesn't escape the shadow of 'Man of Steel.' Milly Alcock's performance is the highlight.
Disney Lorcana's next set 'Attack of the Vine' breaks one of the TCG's fundamental rules, which is a big deal for competitive players. The mechanic shift could reshape deckbuilding entirely.
