In a week both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders had some trouble with their subway cred, “Saturday Night Live” opened with a merciless mockery of Clinton’s Metrocard skills. In a cold open in which Clinton (Kate McKinnon) tried to prove her New York City bona fides, Clinton declared the subway “the best way to get around” before sliding her card, to no avail, and crashing repeatedly into the turnstile. Here’s an excerpt from the skit: Hillary Clinton is a New York subway pro. ???? #SNLhttps://t.co/IFciClbJxo — Saturday Night Live (@nbcsnl) April 10, 2016 With the New York primaries coming »

The Boston Globe wants its readers to imagine what a real Donald Trump presidency would look like.  In "the front page we hope we never have to print," the newspaper created a fake Sunday edition that reports the news of "Trump's America." The paper, which was recently popularized in the Oscar-winning film Spotlight, tweeted out images of the front page on Saturday with the message, "Welcome to Trump's America."  The main story of the day is reported as "Trump: Deport illegals 'so fast your head will spin,'" with other headlines on the faux front

The second season of “Outlander” got off to a surprising start — especially for fans of Diana Gabaldon’s series of books. Rather than picking things up where we left off at the end of Season 1, with Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) disembarking in France in the 1700s, the show picks up with Claire back in the 1940s — and not the 1960s, where the book’s flash forward begins. The change left Claire face to face for the first time with the modern society she left behind, to say nothing of her still-devoted husband Frank (Tobias Menzies). Of course, »

Spoiler warning: This post contains plot details for “Outlander” Season 2, Episode 1, titled “Through a Glass, Darkly.”

We last saw Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) setting sail for France following a harrowing encounter with Black Jack Randall (Tobias Menzies) in the 1700s, but the Season 2 premiere of “Outlander” opened somewhere else entirely — back in Scotland in 1948, with a distraught Claire reuniting with her first husband, Frank (Menzies), desperate to learn the outcome of the infamous Battle of Culloden, to see whether she and Jamie had succeeded in changing the course of history.

More than half of the episode was dedicated to Claire and Frank’s attempts to reconcile what had happened to Claire in the past, while looking towards an uncertain future together, before we took a jaunt back to 1745 as Claire and Jamie arrived in France and got to know Jamie’s cousin, Jared (Robert Cavanah), a wine merchant and Jacobite. »

SAG-aftra has elected Gabrielle Carteris its new president and Rebecca Damon as executive vice president, marking the first time the top three SAG-aftra officers are women. The late Ken Howard, who died March 23, was the first elected president of the merged union and the first president of either SAG or AFTRA to die in office. Carteris, previously executive vice president, assumed his duties and was elected president on Saturday at the group’s national board meeting. Howard was reelected to a two-year term Aug. 20, 2015, and Carteris, a former star of “Beverly Hills 90210,” will serve the balance of his term. Also »

Gabrielle Carteris has become the president of SAG-aftra for the next 16 months as the successor to the late Ken Howard, who died March 23.

The union’s national board made the decision Saturday in a vote by acclamation. Carteris has been serving as acting president since Howard’s death.

She had been re-elected to the post of executive vice president at the union’s bi-annual convention in October, topping Patricia Richardson.

The SAG-aftra Constitution, enacted in 2012 as part of the merger of SAG and AFTRA, provides that the exec VP will succeed the president should the office be vacated with the national board then selecting the president to serve the balance of the unexpired term.

SAG-aftra’s next election will take place in August 2017.

“I am deeply honored to be chosen by the SAG-aftra National Board to serve the union and its members as president,” said Carteris. “Ken was a great union leader, »
