• Celebrating the music of Patsy Cline and a 'Wicked' start to the holiday movie season
    2024/11/20

    Patsy Cline was only 30 when she died, but her relatively small catalog of music continues to resonate with music fans for more than six decades.

    “Patsy Cline: Walkin’ After Midnight” airs Nov. 22 on PBS and features a host of stars singing songs from Cline’s catalog. In advance of that program, co-host Bruce Miller spoke with Cline's daughter, Julie Fudge.

    Bruce also got an early preview of "Wicked: Part I," which hits theaters nationwide on Nov. 22 and is expected to be one of the biggest releases this late fall/early winter season as movie fans return to theaters during the upcoming holidays. Despite a few flaws, notably the unnecessary need to split the movie into two parts, "Wicked" delivers and keeps the magic of Oz alive.

    About the show

    Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is now the editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin.

  • 'Yellowstone' returns for its final stretch. Hear from the stars!
    2024/11/20

    In what has become the standard playbook for a popular television series, "Yellowstone" was given a slightly longer final season that was ultimately split into two parts separated by a year.

    So the final six episodes of Season 5 began dropping weekly beginning Nov. 13 and will conclude the Dutton family saga. Of course, some of the planned spinoffs could extend the narrative in the future.

    The show is without Kevin Costner, who departed after the first half of the fifth season. So what does that mean? Host Bruce Miller shares his thoughts as well as interviews with Wes Bentley, who plays Jamie Dutton; Luke Grimes, who plays Kayce Dutton; and Kelsey Asbille, who plays Monica Long Dutton.

    Also, be sure to check out the first installment of a new series of articles from Lee Enterprises that looks at real-life connections to the show.

    The first article, Fact vs. fiction: A livestock investigator explains the reality not seen on 'Yellowstone,' looks at the real role served by one of Montana's livestock investigators.

    2024/10/23

    Remember Disney's "Wizards of Waverly Place," the tween series that featured a young Selena Gomez?

    The show lasted four seasons from 2007-2012 and lives on to a new generation through streaming. And now the program joins the latest series to offer a reboot for new generation with "Wizards Beyond Waverly Place." Gomez serves as an executive producer and will guest star along most of the original cast members. But one original cast member — David Henrie — gets top billing as the star of the new show as he revives his character Justin Russo.

    Henrie, who is also an executive producer, is back as with a new cast. Russo is a married father now who has been living a normal life until called upon to mentor Billie, a young wizard played by Janice LeAnn Brown.

    Co-host Bruce Miller talks with Henrie and Brown about the new Disney+ program.

  • Not too old: Jean Smart, Kathy Bates and other older actors remain at the top of their game
    2024/10/09

    Back in the 1980s, "The Golden Girls" and "Cocoon" were among the notable titles to feature older actors, but those were certainly not the norm, especially on television with limited channels.

    Now, in the age of streaming and the need for more content, actors like Jean Smart ("Hacks"), Kathy Bates ("Matlock"), Harrison Ford ("Shrinking") and Ted Danson ("Curb Your Enthusiasm," "Fargo") continue finding work and remain favorites not only with viewers but with those handing out Emmys.

    In this week's episode, the hosts talk about the continued success these actors and others are finding and the reasons behind the trend.

  • The loss of legends, 'Megalopolis' disappoints and 'English Teacher' delights
    2024/10/02

    The entertainment world lost a number of legends recently, including Maggie Smith of "Downton Abbey" and the "Harry Potter" films as well as actor and musician Kris Kristofferson.

    We also lost a pair sports icons who dazzled on television screens in baseball great Pete Rose and basketball defensive legend Dikembe Mutombo.

    The biggest film debut of the past week might also be the most disappointing — and a likely contender for worst film of the year — in the Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis." Co-host Bruce Miller took one for the team and sat through the film, with few good things to share.

    He does rave, however, about one of this falls new programs, "English Teacher," which is the latest in the really good shows to come from FX. Miller also shares an interview with Jenn Lyon, who has breakout role in the show.

    2024/09/26

    When it comes to "Grotesquerie," there is a lot of mystery surrounding the horror drama that just premiered on FX with episodes heading to Hulu the next day.

    The latest series from Ryan Murphy ("Nip/Tuck," "Glee," "American Horror Story," "9-1-1") features Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce in some capacity, but the showrunner and the program's stars are not revealing much.

    In this episode, co-host Bruce Miller has two sets of interviews, first with Micaela Dimond and Nicholas Chavez, and then with Courtney B. Vance and Raven Goodwin.

    Miller and co-host Terry Lipshetz then talk about the biggest movie in theaters right now, "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" that is a bit underwhelming. The hosts also chat about another sequel, "Transformers One."
