WOMEN ON PATROL Lady Law Enforcement Officers Get Their Day On Lifetime. By Lori Acken
The toughest and bravest “boys in blue” aren’t always boys. That’s why A&E’s hit series Live PD — which takes viewers on an unedited ride-along with some of America’s busiest police forces — has expanded to its sister network Lifetime, giving female law enforcement officers the spotlight and a show of their own. In each episode of Live PD Presents: Women on Patrol, which premieres June 4, viewers ride shotgun with female cops already featured on Live PD, plus additional brave, badge-wearing women from departments in Jackson, Wyo.; Wilmington, N.C.; Tempe, Ariz.; and Stockton, Calif., to experience firsthand a night’s patrol in their jurisdiction. Raw and unfiltered, the Live PD sister series lends clear-eyed insight into the rewards and challenges of enforcing the law in a deeply conflicted America. 2

AMERICAN WOMAN Three Women In Search Of An Exit From The 1970s. By Ryan A. Berenz

American Woman: Credit: Miller Mobley for Paramount Network.
et in 1975 Los Angeles, Paramount Network’s new half-hour scripted dramedy American Woman is inspired by Kyle Richards’ (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills) life growing up with her single mom and her two sisters. The series follows three women — played by Alicia Silverstone, Mena Suvari and Jennifer Bartels — who are struggling to be strong and independent in an era when that wasn’t the norm. Meet the three fearless females: Bonnie Nolan (Alicia Silverstone) Occupation: Mother/ transportation manager (drives children both to and from school) Source Of Income: Husband’s fraudulent real estate business Relationship Status: Married to a lying, cheating scumbag Silverstone Says: “Many things inspire me about this show, but one of them is this idea that we all have things we get stuck in our lives. You can accept things that aren’t working for you because there’s enough good, or it’s working just barely enough, and it’s too scary to break through — whether that’s in a relationship or your job or whatever it might be. And I really think that having that bravery to stand up and say, ‘I’m not going to do this anymore, and I don’t know what the future looks like. I don’t know if I’m going to crash and burn or if I’m going to find my dream, but I’m going to say “no” to this and go to the bottom and deal with the pain and come out the other side.’”
Kathleen Callahan (Mena Suvari) Occupation: Crazy rich gal from Texas Source Of Income: Daddy Relationship Status: Unknowingly dating a gay man Suvari Says: “I actually loved this decade, and it was an absolute blast working with everyone. One of my favorite outfits that Bonnie wore, Twiggy had actually worn the exact same dress. I love fashion, so I had a lot of fun with it, and my character, Kathleen, really goes for it as well. It was a blast.” Diana Vaughan (Jennifer Bartels) Occupation: Junior loan officer at second-largest Figueroa Bank branch in L.A. Source Of Income: Her underpaid, underappreciated job at second-largest Figueroa Bank branch in L.A. Relationship Status: Taking care of her mom Bartels Says: “This is something you get to see, a really clean snapshot of what women were dealing with in the workplace, trying to create their own financial control, and how they were looked down upon, or they were treated differently. This was something really apparent with my character, Diana. I think personally, too, [about] the way women are viewed, objectified or sexualized — the way it was viewed in the ’70s versus the way it is now. I think we’ve come a long way in a lot of regard to the things we talk about in the show like that, but I think there’s leaps and bounds to where we need to be.” P remieres on Paramount Network June 7 5

Bastian Schweinsteiger and Lukas Podolski of Germany celebrate after winning the 2014 FIFA World Cup
2018 WORLD CUP (MINUS US)
The U.S. Is Out Of The World Cup. Will Americans Still Tune In? By Ryan A. Berenz We can’t blame the Russians for meddling in this outcome. The 2018 FIFA World Cup soccer tournament begins this month in 11 Russian cities, but the U.S. Men’s National Team won’t be playing in any of them. That’s because the USMNT’s streak of seven consecutive World Cup appearances dating back to 1990 was snapped after a stunning loss to Trinidad and Tobago in CONCACAF qualifying last October. It’s a tough blow to U.S. Soccer’s cred on the global stage, and it doesn’t help advance the game’s popularity among casual fans in the States. Until the USMNT redeems itself, bereft soccer fans in the U.S. might consider adopting an underdog team like Iceland, the smallest 6
country by population to ever qualify for the World Cup. Other teams just happy to be there include Panama, which is playing in its first World Cup, and Peru, which is playing in its first World Cup since 1982. Teams with the best chances of hoisting the World Cup include Germany, Brazil, Belgium, Portugal, Argentina, France and Spain. Germany defeated Argentina 1-0 in extra time to win the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. This marks the first World Cup for FOX Sports, which won the rights from longtime broadcaster ABC/ESPN. FOX Sports airs all 64 matches live, with 38 matches on the FOX broadcast network and 26 on FS1.

Kevin Costner Returns To TV In A Sweeping “Wild West Meets Wall Street” Series. By Lori Acken

Yellowstone: © Paramount Network Credit: Emerson Miller
June evin Costner is dancing with TV audiences once again. In his first television project since his Emmy-winning role in History’s record-breaking Hatfields & McCoys, the 63-yearold actor — who ascended from movie-star heartthrob to bona fide power player when he helmed and starred in 1990’s Oscar-winning Dances With Wolves — returns to his favored frontier sensibility for Paramount Network’s sweeping drama series Yellowstone. Costner plays widower John Dutton, proprietor of the modern-day Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, his family’s Rhode Island-sized Montana sprawl of big business, modern technology and Wild West skill sets. Invulnerable to outside forces for generations, the estate’s prime location in the shadow of Yellowstone National Park now renders it a target for land developers, oil and logging corporations, the neighboring Indian reservation, and locals who feel that the Duttons’ interests have usurped their own progress. “There’s people that fight for ‘God and country,’ and there’s people that fight for the land that they actually live on,” says Costner of Dutton’s world, where a vicious brand of modern frontier justice still reigns. “If you’ve ever fought for the land and the people on it — where you sleep, where you feed yourself — you feel the difference. I’m not saying one’s better than the other, but this guy’s fighting for his way of life and his property against a lot of forces. Tricky ones. And he’s got one foot in one century and the other foot in another.” The series is the creation of acclaimed filmmaker Taylor Sheridan (Hell or High Water), who grew up on ranches and has described the series as a sort of modernized Bonanza or “The Great Gatsby on the largest ranch in Montana.” He filmed on Chief Joseph Ranch, 60 miles south of Missoula, which sometimes put the actors in close proximity with the natural perils they were committing to film. But it also imbued them with the spirit of a landscape most of us know only from pictures and, well, the movies. Which means we don’t really know it at all. “It’s not a world that we’ve explored very much, to be quite honest,” says Costner, who eschews Hollywood for a bucolic Aspen homestead. “And it’s something that I’m
attracted to, with modern-day ranching and the issues that go with that — land use, water rights, the pressures on the people who have the land to keep it and the pressure that people who want it are putting on them. It represents a way of life, and [Taylor] has a grasp of that.” “You dance with the prettiest girl,” Costner continues. “You go to the best script. And the best script was Yellowstone.”
Costner On Dutton Family Values
“For four generations, all the children wanted to do was take over, inherit and advance the ranch. John was able to do that, to grow the ranch in a way a CEO would, but he also is steeped in the tradition of ranching. … The kids have other interests that take them away from the ranch. So, the thing that you’re fighting to save, to advance, to keep going, you’re not even sure who you’re trying to save it for anymore. … John Dutton is, in a sense, the most capable guy from the beginning of the Dutton generations, and yet, he’s the most poised to lose it all because of modern-day issues that can attack him and a dysfunctional family that’s made him vulnerable.”
On The Dutton Kids
“One son [Dave Annable’s Lee Dutton] is very content to just be a wrangler. It’s difficult for John — that’s not what he needs. He needs somebody to inherit one of the great ranches of all time, but Lee doesn’t have the ambition for it, and you see that very clearly. He has another son [Wes Bentley’s Jamie] who has political aspirations and, while John understands the nature of politics and its modern-day place in these things, he despises that. Another son [Luke Grimes’ Kayce] had difficulty growing up — issues of violence, bad choices made, pregnancies early in their teens — and went off to war. He’s been a little disenfranchised by war. And John’s daughter [Kelly Reilly’s Beth Dutton] lost what a mother can be to a daughter. As hard as it is to raise a daughter [Costner has three], imagine a cowboy trying to raise a daughter as wild and as beautiful as Beth.” P remieres on Paramount Network June 20 9

RETURNINGYour FAVORITES TiVo Central February Road Map
YOUR TV, CUSTOMIZED FOR YOU!
Did you know that the more you use your TiVo DVR, the smarter it becomes? OnePass gathers every episode of your favorite series and adds them to your My Shows list to watch on your schedule. You can customize your OnePass to only gather TV recordings, or include streaming options from ON Demand, Netflix, Vudu and more. When you’re in the mood for something new, you can try your TiVo’s suggestions. Over time, your TiVo learns the types of programs you like to watch, your favorite actors and directors, and the shows you didn’t like. Then it records similar shows it thinks you might like based on your viewing and recording habits — helping you cut through the clutter to find new favorites. If an episode isn’t available on TV or from Midco ON Demand, OnePass fills in the gaps with episodes from streaming video providers like Netflix, Hulu and more.
And here’s even better news: Streaming videos don’t take up any disk space! So, when your OnePass includes streaming videos, you get more choices without having to worry about saving space for other recordings.
