Two years after ending its two-year run on Peacock — and subsequently being rescued by Netflix — Meredith Scardino’s musical comedy “Girls5Eva” is ready for its new streaming home. Seasons 1 and 2 are set to move from Peacock to Netflix in March, and they’ll be accompanied by the all-new Season 3, which dropped its first trailer on Thursday.
Hailing from executive producers Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, “Girls5Eva” follows an eponymous singing group that achieved pop superstardom in the 1990s before engaging in a struggle-filled reunion in the present day. Led by a cast that includes music and Broadway veterans Sara Bareilles and Renée Elise Goldsberry, the show earned a passionate fanbase for its irreverent humor and catchy songs. What it didn’t earn on Peacock, was much of an audience.

Carson Daly recalls his harrowing experience at Woodstock '99 well. Due to the new Netflix documentary "Trainwreck: Woodstock '99," which details the festival, the infamous event has been on the former talk-show host's mind more than usual.
"I've been getting asked about #woodstock99 a ton recently," he wrote in an Aug. 12 Instagram post. "All I can say is I thought I was going to die. It started off great, Trl live from the side of main stage interviewing all the bands (like Jay from Jamiroquai) & started getting pelted with bottles, rocks, lighters, all of it. It got insane, fast. Nightfall, Limp [Bizkit] plays 'Break Stuff' & the prisoners were officially running the prison."
Eventually, he and his team decided to escape. "My boss @MTV Dave says to our staff/crew backstage, 'We can no longer guarantee your safety, it's time to go!' I remember being in a production van driving recklessly...

Just a few months ago, Netflix appeared to be on a very rough track. Then Stranger Things season 4 came around and led to a less-apocalyptic-than-expected Q2 earnings report for the streamer. With its new releases for August 2022, however, Netflix is going to have to find another hit to keep the good vibes rolling. Here are some of their best options.
Perhaps the biggest breakout candidate for Netflix this month is The Sandman on Aug. 5. Though Neil Gaiman’s classic comic has long been thought to be unadaptable, the folks behind 10-episode series are betting they’re the ones for the job. Get ready to meet Morpheus, the king of dreams and the ruler of The Dreaming.

In the run-up to the release of Creed the movie, one question has loomed above all: What does Creed the band think about all this? Now, in a sketch for Funny or Die, Scott Stapp has answered the question: He wishes it had more Creed! There's no Woodstock '99, no awesome guitar licks, no montage of the band creating their hit single "Higher." Instead, just a lot of boxing. But good news for the movie's Oscar chances: Stapp still gives it four arms wide open.

Few genres were more maligned than nü-metal, that strange mix of hard rock, hip-hop and electronic music that dominated the rock radio airwaves at the turn of the millennium. Sometimes dark and melodic but also frequently mookish, bands like Limp Bizkit set a standard for bad behavior and worse lyrical crimes (and that whole Woodstock '99 thing certainly didn't help their cause). But not everything in the genre was terrible (Linkin Park, who just put out one of the most interesting and innovative big rock records in years, did emerge from the muck), and not all the bands associated with the scene even really belonged there. Take Incubus, whose combination of metal, funk and psychedelia made them stand out from the pack, and they began their unlikely rise on this day in 1999 when they released their breakthrough album Make Yourself.

The 2010 MTV Video Music Awards are only a few weeks away. The biggest party of the year features nominated clips by Lady Gaga, Eminem, Jay-z, Ke$ha and Katy Perry and will feature performances by Kanye West, Eminem, Drake, Justin Bieber, Paramore, Usher, B.o.B, Florence and the Machine and Linkin Park. In order to properly prepare yourself for what's to come, every day the MTV Newsroom Blog will deliver a classic moment in the history of the MTV Video Music Awards. Today's installment: Rage Against the Machine bassist Tim Commerford crashes the stage.
At the end of the last century, it was apparently very dangerous for MTV to construct anything that even vaguely resembled scaffolding. Revelers scaled the MTV tower at Woodstock '99, and when it came time to present Limp Bizkit with the Moonman for Best Rock Video (for their aggro anthem "Break Stuff") at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards,...

The celebratory release day of Drake's full-length debut album Thank Me Later ended on a bit of a sour note, as a free show at New York City's South Street Seaport was shut down by the New York City Police Department because of crowd control and safety concerns. The good news was that an estimated 10,000 fans crowded into the space to try to get a glimpse of the rapper. When you combine that with the crowd that showed up to an autograph session at a New York Best Buy a few hours earlier, it looks like the fervor surrounding one of the most talked-about young stars in hip-hop is wholly justifiable as far as the fans are concerned.
For a dude with music as mellow as Drake's, it's a little bit weird that he finds himself in such strange company as a guy who has inspired a riot. Everybody knows about the chaos at Altamont,...

They say a well-rounded education is the key to success, and if that truly is the case, the my schooling is woefully incomplete when it comes to the subject of pop. That's why we bring you "Popology," the guide to modern radio-friendly stars as seen through the eyes of a guy who grew up on punk and metal. In case you missed previous installments, catch up with Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Simpson, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and the Spice Girls here.
In this week's installment — a slight departure from the norm — Limp Bizkit puts the "nu" in nu-metal.
If there's one thing that stood out about the sad passing of Slipknot bassist Paul Gray, it's the fact that there was a time in this country when metal was totally accepted in the mainstream. And we're not talking about the type of metal that Guns N' Roses...

Think back, if you can, to the nightmarish state of rock and roll in the late '90s. Recall the thudding riffs, the macho posturing, the turntablists. Shudder at the memory of Woodstock '99, the Family Values Tour, and moshpits filled with red-faced, shirtless frat guys all looking to abuse and/or murder you. Recoil from the terror. The dread. The Puddle of Mudd. It was a tough time, indeed.
Now, think even harder ... what's the first image that comes to your with mind?
Chances are, it's a dude. He is probably wearing a blood-red Yankees cap, turned backwards on his skull. He is probably crouched, wildly gesturing, the crotch of his baggy sweats nearly scraping the floor. He is probably angry at...

When Beyoncé took the stage at the O2 Arena on Monday (November 16), she not only brought Kanye West and Jay-z on stage with her, but also busted out a big concert trope that seems to have gone by the wayside but may be making a comeback. In the middle of "Halo," she ran directly at the crowd and hurled herself onto the outstretched hands of the mass of fans in a stage dive.
Stage diving used to be a common occurrence during the alt-rock era, which saw frontmen like Eddie Vedder and Kurt Cobain channeled the spirit of Iggy Pop and constantly tossed themselves at the swirling crowds at their shows. But at some point around the turn of the century, stage diving got a bad name. It's possible that Fred Durst sunk the whole concept, as he famously used a piece of the security fence to surf across the...

Today we celebrate the birth of one of the more controversial performers of the last two decades. Fred Durst, the red-hatted frontman of Limp Bizkit, turns 39 years old today. Back in 1997, Durst's band stormed onto the rock scene with a bristling mix of metal, hardcore, hip-hop and Red Hot Chili Peppers-esque sex funk. The group first gained attention with their extra-loud cover of George Michael's "Faith," but they made the crossover into superstardom with 1999's Significant Other (which featured the hits "Nookie" and "Break Stuff"). Durst became a staple on "Trl" and — along with his friends in Korn — built a tiny nation of disaffected suburban youth.
His career has not been without controversy. In addition to being accused of inciting riots at Woodstock '99, Durst has had public altercations with stars like Creed's Scott Stapp and Stone Temple Pilots' Scott Weiland, while he's claimed in public...

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the final day of the original Woodstock (the music actually carried over into the wee hours of August 18), so a lot of people are re-evaluating the lasting legacy of the festival. Did it really usher in a message of peace and love, or was it simply the beginning of a brand name? Is it truly a great representation of the era's mentality or just another slice of Boomer nostalgia? Whatever the case, Woodstock left a pretty bad taste in everybody's mouth when the festival celebrated its 30th anniversary with another three-day affair in upstate New York, featuring Metallica, Rage Against the Machine, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The aggro attitude of the music combined with the questionable resources of the festival and a general feeling that everybody had been ripped off led to violent mosh pits, multiple cases of sexual assault,...
