S35 E1: It Started in Vancouver | Allison after NXIVM
Former Smallville star Allison Mack is headed to court to be sentenced for her role in NXIVM, the sex cult that lured successful women with promises of personal growth—only to enslave, blackmail, and brand them. When the judge hands down his sentence—three years in federal prison—Allison must begin to unravel the beliefs she once evangelized, parsing what was true and what was manipulation. Journalist Natalie Robehmed sits down with her to explore how she got here: from child actor to TV star to a pivotal moment in Albany that changed everything.

Naomi Watts: On the courage to keep going when no one was watching
When Naomi Watts first moved to Hollywood, she couldn’t get a break. Casting directors barely looked her in the eye. She was told no more times than she could count. And just as she was about to pack up and return home to Australia, a call from filmmaker David Lynch changed everything. In this candid and deeply personal conversation, Naomi sits down with Bruna Papandrea to trace the long, uncertain road from Sydney to Mulholland Drive. She opens up about the years she spent denying her love of acting, the rejections that almost broke her, and the quiet resilience that kept her going. Now, with decades of success behind her, Naomi reflects on the discipline it takes to build longevity in Hollywood, balancing motherhood with ambition, and the power of reinvention again and again. This is Naomi's invisible roadmap.

PARENTING
In Season 1 of KAREN, we unpacked the explosive case of Karen Read, accused of killing her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, with her SUV. After the first trial ended in a hung jury, the high-stakes case of Karen Read returns to court—and the pressure has never been greater. In KAREN: THE RETRIAL, we return to the courtroom—where the stakes are higher, the drama is deeper, and the fight for truth is far from over. KAREN: THE RETRIAL isn’t just about the verdict—it’s about power, perception, and who gets to write the story. Investigative Reporter Kristin Thorne is embedded at the heart of the action, bringing exclusive interviews, expert analysis, and real-time reporting from inside the courtroom. With new prosecutors, a relentless defense, and a public obsessed with every twist, we ask: Is Karen Read the victim of a malicious prosecution—or is there finally enough evidence to convict? And in a trial tried as much in the media as in court, how much does the truth even matter? KAREN: THE RETRIAL is your front-row seat to a legal battle where reputations, lives, and the very meaning of justice are on the line.
