88 m. ago The Guide #211: What the world is watching, from Brazilian telenovelas to superheroes made of red bean paste

In this week’s newsletter: Guardian writers spotlight the much-loved shows in the country they live, including Jamaican breakfast telly, Big Brother Naija and X Factor for Polish pianistsA little while ago the Guide looked at the wave of international post-apocalyptic dramas washing up on our shores, bringing tales of climate catastrophe, violent autocracy and alien invasions from as far afield as Argentina, Nigeria and Korea. As well as revealing just how terrified the whole world is of the prospect of institutional collapse, it also – somewhat more positively – underscored what a globally connected industry TV is in 2025. Streaming networks, satellite channels, YouTube and hooky pirate streams can instantly serve up local content from every continent (Antartica excepted, though I’d love to hear if there’s a penguin mob drama from King George Island that I’ve missed).Still, as intermingled as TV is these days, there are still so many programmes that will probably never reach our sh...

2 h. ago How do you celebrate James Bond Day when you don’t know who the next 007 will be?

All things Bond will be commemorated on 5 October. But while the new movie has a director and writer attached, we’re still none the wiser as to who will play the super-spyIt’s James Bond Day this Sunday, if you didn’t know – 5 October is now a celebration of all things 007, thanks to this being the date of the world premiere of Dr No, the very first Bond film, starring Sean Connery, in 1962. Imagine it as a bit like Star Wars Day, with fewer Wookiees and Ewoks and a whole lot more tuxedoed swagger.This year though, the advent of JBD (as no one has ever called it) is bit of a damp squib. It hasn’t been that long since Denis Villeneuve was announced as the director of the next Bond film (June, in fact) and even less time since Peaky Blinders’ Steven Knight was hired to write the script. But there’s been little to no sign since then of the new 007 actually being revealed, and even less sense of where this venerable franchise is going next. All we have are whisperings on the wind via th...
