Trailer for Stuart Fails to Save the Universe; Terry Crews to Host 50th Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular
HBO Max has released the official trailer and key art for the Max Original comedy series Stuart Fails to Save the Universe. The ten-episode season debuts Thursday, July 23 at 9:00 p.m. ET and will be available to stream on HBO Max. New episodes will debut subsequent Thursdays.
Comic book store owner Stuart Bloom is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon. Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise, geologist friend Bert, and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke. Along the way, they meet alternate-universe versions of characters we've come to know and love from The Big Bang Theory. As the title implies, things don't go well.
The series stars Kevin Sussman (Stuart), Lauren Lapkus (Denise), Brian Posehn (Bert), and John Ross Bowie (Kripke).
Terry Crews will host America's largest Independence Day celebration for the 50th Macy's 4th of July Fireworks(R) special. The telecast will air live on Saturday, July 4 (8-10 p.m. ET/PT) on NBC and simulcast live on Peacock.
The star-studded event will feature performances by Noah Kahan, Post Malone, Salt-N-Pepa, Bebe Rexha, Shaboozey and Blake Shelton. The celebration will include more than 85,000 shells in 30 vibrant colors - paired with a laser show from the Brooklyn Bridge - to deliver breathtaking, awe-inspiring effects.
Produced by Grammy Award-winning composer Jason Howland, the 27-minute score will feature a live performance by NBC's The Voice season 29 winner Alexia Jayy. Inspired by the enduring spirit of America, the soundtrack reimagines the iconic sounds of more than 50 years of beloved summer classics. Serving as the emotional heartbeat of the pyrotechnic display, the score, designed in perfect harmony with stage lighting and lasers, will set the tone for a powerful and unforgettable celebration.
The 50th edition of Macy's 4th of July Fireworks will expand to both the lower East River in the Seaport District, the lower Hudson River in collaboration with Jersey City and the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, firing from six barges and providing miles of prime public viewing to create a shared experience that connects more communities than ever.
