Billy Joel doc Part 2 revelations: Alcoholism, marriages and how music saved his life
The first part of Billy Joel's documentary ends with the musical titan noting, "I realize life doesn't always have a happy ending.' The second half of the engrossing 'Billy Joel: And So It Goes' wraps with a similar sentiment of realism sprinkled with optimism. 'I'm not finished … I'm still looking. I'm still searching,' Joel, 76, says with watery eyes as he sits in front of a piano in his home. 'I may not ever figure it all out. But I'm tryin'.' The 2 ½-hour continuation of Joel's life story premieres at 8 p.m. (ET/PT) July 25 on HBO Max (Part One was released July 18) and picks up in 1982, after Joel broke his wrist in a motorcycle accident that threatened his career. Directors Susan Lacy and Jessica Levin crafted a comprehensive dive into his later history, leading to his record-setting residency at Madison Square Garden. It is likely not a coincidence that this final chapter – the two parts of the film total five hours and include 110 Joel songs – arrives exactly a year after Joel played his last show of the decade-long run at the hallowed New York venue. The documentary was completed prior to Joel's recent diagnosis of normal pressure hydrocephalus, but there are candid assessments of other struggles he's endured, including depression, bankruptcy and alcoholism. Much like Part One includes input from Joel's first wife, Elizabeth Weber, an integral engine of his early career, this installment offers sympathetic and sometimes emotional commentary from ex-wives Christie Brinkley and Katie Lee, along with daughter Alexa and current wife Alexis Roderick,. Other music luminaries, including Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Sting, Garth Brooks, Jackson Browne and Nas also pop in to expound on what has made Joel one of the preeminent musicians of the past 50 years. Here are some highlights from the film. More: Billy Joel's documentary reveals suicide attempts, influence of first wife on his career Billy Joel, his father and his heritage: 'I will always be a Jew' Joel fans know that his profound ballad 'Vienna' was written for his father, Howard, who left when Joel was a child. Longtime friend Howard Stern shares, 'You see the glimpse of the trauma Billy had in his life in his songs … I think his drive is wanting to know his father through music.' Joel did find his dad – in Vienna, naturally – when he was a young man playing clubs in Europe. The pair had a standoffish relationship that eroded Joel's soul as he repeatedly tried to pierce the emotional armor between them until Howard's death in 2011. Joel also shares the intense backstory of his family history in Germany – his father grew up under Hitler's reign – and explains why he wore a yellow Jewish star on his suit during a 2017 concert following a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. 'I've never been political onstage … but I was angry. When (President) Trump comes out and says there are 'very fine people on both sides' … the Nazis are not good people, period.' Joel is resolute as he looks into the camera and says, 'No matter what, I will always be a Jew.' More: Billy Joel turns 75: His 75 best songs, definitively ranked A vacation led to a love affair with Christie Brinkley From their first public photos together in 1983, people pegged Joel and Brinkley as an odd couple – the Everyman New Yorker with the radiant supermodel. Their meeting in St. Barts, where Joel escaped following his exhausting tour behind 'The Nylon Curtain,' was a lesson in choosing someone for their heart, not their hairline. 'There was something sweet and old-fashioned about him,' the still-luminous Brinkley says in current day. Joel was equally smitten. 'She was a muse. It was like being a teenager again.' Their union produced not only daughter Alexa, now 39, but Joel's wildly successful 'An Innocent Man' album that includes the Brinkley-inspired 'Uptown Girl.' Personal videos of the pair on Joel's boat, carrying a turkey at Thanksgiving dinner, singing Joel's songs together in the car and doting on Alexa spotlight a couple enthralled with life. It was Brinkley who brought to Joel's attention that his manager, Frank Weber (his former brother-in-law) was spending his fortune indiscriminately, a fact that Joel initially refused to believe. 'He trusted (Frank) more than he trusted me, which hurt me,' Brinkley says through tears. Joel's moves to rebuild his career, including the 'Storm Front' and 'River of Dreams' albums and subsequent tours, led to severe drinking. That, coupled with his work consumption, escalated into an untenable situation for Brinkley. 'I don't think he knew how he could hurt people,' she says. The pair divorced in 1994 after nearly 10 years of marriage. Joel's struggles with addiction and homebody tendencies also prompted his split with Food Network chef Katie Lee more than 20 years later. Joel and current wife Alexis married in 2015 and have two young daughters, Della Rose and Remy Anne. 'I still believe in love,' he says of his current home life. How Hurricane Sandy led to Billy Joel's MSG residency After Hurricane Sandy decimated parts of Long Island in 2012, Joel, a native entrenched in his hometown, took the stage for the first time in years as part of the '121212' relief concert at Madison Square Garden and realized, 'there's still gas in the tank.' His booking agent suggested a regular return to performing with a monthly stint at the venue. Joel figured he and his longtime band would play six shows and ticket demand would cease. Instead, he performed 100 sellouts over 10 years. As footage plays of Joel strapping on his harmonica – the telltale signal that 'Piano Man' is looming – during an MSG show, the film cuts to video of him in 1973 at his signing day at Columbia Records, singing what became his signature song. His voice is higher, his hair shaggier and his future uncertain. But Joel came to a realization through the next 50-plus years: 'Music saved my life.'

This acclaimed sci-fi comedy with 98% on Rotten Tomatoes just got canceled ahead of its season 4 finale
Bad news, "Resident Alien" fans: we'll be saying goodbye to Harry Vanderspeigle (Alan Tudyk) and co. very soon, as the sci-fi comedy will soon be coming to an end. Per a report from TV Insider, we now know that "Resident Alien" season 4 will be the show's final outing, with the upcoming season 4 finale (due to air on August 8) serving as the series finale. Speaking with TV Insider, "Resident Alien" creator and showrunner Chris Sheridan admitted that he "knew going into it [season 4] that this was likely going to be our final season," presumably because the show dodged cancellation last time out (landing a budget reduction and a move from SyFy to USA Network). At the very least, it sounds like Sheridan has made plans to wrap the show up in an acceptable way. "Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending," he told TV Insider.. "I'm so proud of how good Season 4 is and especially proud that we were able to finish as strongly as we did, with a finale that is probably my favorite episode of the series." And speaking of the final episode, Sheridan said this: "It gives "Resident Alien" a very satisfying ending while also leaving the door cracked open for any future this world may have. I can't wait for everyone to see it." This news all comes in spite of the fact that the show has been a hit with fans. "Resident Alien" currently holds an overall critics' rating of 98% on Rotten Tomatoes, with a Popcornmeter score that's not far behind (87%). Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The series has also proven popular on Netflix; whenever a new season arrived, it usually appeared within the streamer's top 10 shows. Unfortunately, Deadline reports that "Resident Alien" season 4 has only been "a modest ratings performer" and "hasn't gotten much traction on NBCU streamer Peacock." If you're not familiar with the show, "Resident Alien" is a sci-fi comedy-drama about Harry, an alien who crash-lands on Earth. He decides to live among the humans in the small town of Patience, Colorado, and adopts the identity of the town's doctor, rather than following through on his original, secret mission. If "Resident Alien's" cancellation means you'll soon be on the hunt for a new binge-watch, check out our round-up of the best shows like "Resident Alien" for some streaming recommendations that could help you replace the outgoing show on your watchlist. "Resident Alien" season 4 continues to air Fridays at 10 pm ET on USA Network; the series is also available on Peacock. You can also stream "Resident Alien" seasons 1-3 on Netflix now.

From 'Happy Gilmore 2' to 'The Assessment,' 10 movies to stream right now
Adam Sandler is gripping it and ripping it on the golf course like it's 1996 again. Nearly three decades after "Happy Gilmore" became one of the Sandman's earliest and biggest movie hits, the highly anticipated comedy sequel "Happy Gilmore 2" leads a variety of new films from the streaming clubhouse. That's a Netflix original, but other services such as Hulu, Peacock and HBO Max are offering up theatrical releases finally coming home, like the newest Wes Anderson jam, a horror flick based on the video game "Until Dawn" and a Jenna Ortega/Paul Rudd thriller. Here are 10 new and notable movies you can stream right now: 'The Amateur' It's like an action thriller that forgot to come out in 2003. When his wife (Rachel Brosnahan) is killed in an international terrorist attack, a CIA decoder (Rami Malek) goes after the people responsible in a throwback to the days of "The Recruit" and the "Bourne" movies. Where to watch: Hulu. 'Apocalypse in the Tropics' The gripping documentary chronicles the rise of evangelical power in Brazilian politics in recent years, focused on the tumult caused by televangelist Silas Malafaia and controversial president Jair Bolsonaro. It's also a sobering watch, given how certain aspects – from social-media propaganda to a destructive insurrection – hit way too close to home. Where to watch: Netflix. 'The Assessment' In a futuristic landscape wrecked by climate change, people have to get government permission to procreate, to save resources. Elizabeth Olsen and Himesh Patel play a scientific couple wanting a little one, and Alicia Vikander is the assessor sent to test them in extreme ways in the outrageously funny and extraordinarily bleak sci-fi thriller. Where to watch: Hulu. 'Death of a Unicorn' In the trippily bonkers thriller, a widowed attorney (Paul Rudd) takes his estranged daughter (Jenna Ortega) on a work trip to a Rockies nature preserve for familial reconnection. That goes sideways when they hit a baby unicorn and the dad's pharmaceutical employers aim to use its blood for profit. Then the foal's parents show up and things get really gory. Where to watch: HBO Max. 'Happy Gilmore 2' This is the "Cannonball Run" of golf comedy sequels. The plot is a familiar one: Brash golfer Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) hits the links to raise enough money to send his daughter to ballet school. Come for the silliness, stay for the endless cameos, from women's hoopsters and pro wrestlers to musicians, gridiron stars and Sandler's old pals. Where to watch: Netflix. 'I Love You Forever' No one's having a creepier 2025 on screen than Ray Nicholson. (Yes, Jack's son.) In this dark romantic comedy, Sofia Black-D'Elia plays a young woman unlucky in love who meets a TV journalist (Nicholson) who checks all the right boxes. Yet the best boyfriend ever quickly takes a swift and cringey turn toward the emotionally abusive. Where to watch: HBO Max. 'Long Distance' The definition of a "dumped movie" is a shelved theatrical release with a new title and no marketing dropped suddenly on a streaming service. That said, this sci-fi film is a pretty fun time, with Anthony Ramos as a miner who crash-lands on a dangerous alien planet and needs to rescue an injured stranger (Naomi Scott) before his oxygen runs out. Where to watch: Hulu. 'The Phoenician Scheme' Wes Anderson's comedy stars Benicio del Toro as a famed arms dealer who, after one assassination attempt too many, makes estranged nun daughter (Mia Threapleton) his sole heir. Absurd shenanigans are afoot, though the real joy is watching a delightful del Toro and refreshing Threapleton navigating an oddly heartfelt family reconnection. Where to watch: Peacock. 'Push' The one thing very pregnant realtor Natalie (Alicia Sanz) doesn't need is a bunch of no-shows to a cursed house she's trying to sell. And the one guy who does show up? A psycho killer! Raúl Castillo plays the sadistic guy who ruthlessly chases her – a situation that goes truly awry when she goes into labor – in a twist on the supernaturally tinged slasher. Where to watch: Shudder. 'Until Dawn' The "Until Dawn" video game is a freaky good time. The movie adaptation veers wildly from it, and not for the better. Clover (Ella Rubin) takes her friends along on a doomed trip to find her missing sister, and they wind up in a time loop where they have to stay alive till dawn to make it to tomorrow. A horror flick with a few cool moments but a ton more clichés. Where to watch: Netflix.
