5 Things You Can't Miss
Ready Player One
“Ready Player One” is the first Steven Spielberg film in quite some time where it feels as if the director wasn't weighed down by his material, but more that he found something new and interesting to invigorate his senses with. On top of character, story, and theme “Ready Player One” is just a ton of fun and that can't be emphasized enough. For starters, it is genuinely and consistently funny in ways that were unexpected while also finding clever ways in which to integrate those much-discussed references. The CGI, of which I was concerned-especially since the movie seemingly relied on the avatar characters for the majority of the runtime-are so lifelike and natural in their movements it's astonishing such visual effects are even possible.

Ashley McBryde’s “Girl Going Nowhere”
Ashley McBryde, from the small town of Mammoth Spring, Ark., has become the next big thing among country music critics with her traditional sounding debut Girl Going Nowhere. The debut shows off McBryde’s excellent songwriting, which has drawn praise from stars like Eric Church, and includes stellar tracks like “A Little Dive Bar in Dahlonega,” the “Hotel California” inspired “Southern Babylon” and the title track. McBryde wrote or co-wrote all 11 tracks on the album.

Shohei Ohtani
It’s been almost a century since Major League Baseball has seen the likes of a Shohei Ohtani, the rookie sensation from Japan for the Los Angeles Angels who’s a two-way player and a stud both at the plate and the mound. Ohtani pitches every five days for the Angels and is the team’s designated hitter the rest of the time. Ohtani is coming off maybe the greatest opening week of a rookie in baseball history with a .389 average and three bombs, a 2-0 record as pitcher with a 2.08 ERA and 18 strikeouts. He’s the first player in 99 years to hit three homers and win two games in his team’s first 10 games of the season. He struck out more batters in his first two starts than Max Scherzer and has more home runs through 10 games than Aaron Judge. Ohtani has turned Angels games into must-see television.

"Rise"
Jason Katims has been one of my favorite showrunners and writers on television over the last decade having a huge role in two of network television’s finest genres over that span: NBC’s “Friday Night Lights” and “Parenthood.” Katims is king when it comes to realistic, real-world dramas and he’s partnered with NBC again for “Rise,” the story of a high school teacher taking on a struggling theater department. Josh Radnor, of “How I Met Your Mother” fame, takes on the lead role of the drama teacher and as he showed in PBS’ short-lived “Mercy Street” he’s completely at home in dramatic fare. “Rise” should feature the great real-life storylines we loved from ‘FNL’ and “Parenthood” in a high school setting.
