Call it blood on the Deep Tracks.
This week, SiriusXM announced a series of changes to its lineup of music channels. The additions include channels devoted exclusively to the oeuvres of Kelly Clarkson and John Mayer, one made up of old-school Latin music, and one each focusing on R&b and hip-hop hits from the 2000s and 2010s. To make room, some pre-existing channels were moved to new slots up and down the dial.
Although these types of tweaks happen every so often at SiriusXM, tell that to the devoted followers of Deep Tracks,...

This post contains spoilers for the latest episode of "Futurama" season 11.
If an animated sitcom goes on long enough, it will inevitably make an episode about unions. "The Simpsons," for instance, delivered a classic in season 4 with "Last Exit to Springfield," in which Homer ends up leading a union strike that shuts down the power plant. It's the episode that gave us the absolute banger that is Lisa's pro-union folk song, as well as that delightful montage of Mr. Burns and Mr. Smithers trying and failing to run the power plant by themselves. The world runs best when workers are properly compensated, the episode argues, even when those workers are as incompetent as Homer J. Simpson.
Even "South Park," with its tendency towards reactionary "both sides bad" social commentary, went unabashedly pro-union with its season 22 entry "Unfulfilled." In that episode, the town gets taken over by Amazon and the characters engage in a high-stakes,...

The most evil villain in Matt Groening's and David X. Cohen's animated sci-fi comedy "Futurama" is undoubtedly Mom (Tress MacNeille), the wicked corporate tyrant who aims to own everything in the universe. In public, Mom wears a grandmotherly gown, complete with a bustle, and spends her time hawking "homemade" goods with a gentle, old-world, rustic charm. As soon as Mom is back in her office, however, she removes her gown -- it turns out it's a robotic suit akin to the one worn by Iron Man -- and transforms into her true self: a rail-thin, chain-smoking, Cruella de Vil-like monster who slaps her children and invents unusual cusses.
Mom has three bumbling adult children named Walt, Larry, and Igner whom she forces to stand in a line so she can slap them all with only one swing of the arm. As "Futurama" progressed, it would also be revealed...
