How making, and watching, movies has changed
Moviewatching in the 21st century is decidedly different than in Hollywood's Golden Era – and so is moviemaking. But did the rise of streaming services, and the ability to watch movies on mobile phones, change what we expect movies to be? Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz talks with director Nancy Myers; Ted Sarandos, the co-CEO of Netflix; Tom Rothman, Chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures; and New Yorker writer Michael Schulman, about whether the old saying "They don't make 'em like they used to" applies when it comes to Hollywood's "Dream Factory" today.
The hidden side of Johnny Carson
As host of "The Tonight Show" for 30 years, Johnny Carson was the king of late-night TV – the pre-eminent Hollywood talent broker, monologist, and national taste-maker. But the public rarely saw the private side of the man who helped tuck tens of millions of Americans into bed each night. Correspondent Jim Axelrod talks with Mike Thomas (co-author, with Bill Zehme, of "Carson the Magnificent") about the late-night host's enduring impact and private difficulties; comedians Robert Klein and George Wallace, who describe a "Tonight Show" appearance as comedy's Mt. Everest; and actress Dyan Cannon, who says of Carson, "There was nobody as big a star."
Creating the languages of other worlds
When Hollywood needs a language that doesn't exist (like Chakobsa, for the desert planet Arrakis in "Dune," or the Dothraki language from "Game of Thrones"), they call language nerds David and Jessie Peterson. Correspondent David Pogue looks at the craft that is a form of linguistic alchemy, and what goes into preparing actors like Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya to recite constructed languages (also known as conlangs).
John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush talk horror in "The Rule of Jenny Pen"

But two of our most established and acclaimed stars, John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush (who have an Oscar, three Tonys, seven Emmys and four Golden Globes between them), are now headlining a low-budget horror film: "The Rule of Jenny Pen," in which a psychopath terrorizes his fellow nursing home residents with a sinister doll puppet. Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with them about playing once-in-a-lifetime characters; aging into their roles; and when awards season "doesn't make sense."
Owning a piece of celebrity: Inside Hollywood auction house Julien's

Trump and Zelenskyy at a crossroads over Russia
In the wake of Friday's unprecedented, seemingly made-for-TV Oval Office exchange among President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelenskyy, America's alliance with Ukraine as it defends against Russia appears ruptured.

Holocaust survivors on bearing witness

Correspondent Lee Cowan talks with Laub about her project, called "Live2Tell." He also talks with some survivors – models of courage, fortitude and grace – who bear witness to the horrors they experienced, and to the antisemitism they see today in America. As 89-year-old Stella Sonnenschein says, "We have a job to do."
