From sea to shining sea, Americans express their creativity.

The new, four-part documentary series “The Express Way

With Dulé Hill” premieres

Tuesday, April 23, on PBS, looking at the ways self-expression and creativity are intertwined. Featuring artists from four different corners of the United States — California, the Appalachian region, Texas and Chicago — the series explores how they use art to make connections within and outside of their local communities.

The Beekeeper

When retired schoolteacher Eloise Parker (Rashad) is scammed out of $2 million, most of which belonged to a charity she managed, she takes her own life out of guilt. Adam Clay (Statham), a mild-mannered beekeeper who rented space in her barn, is arrested on suspicion of murdering her, though he’s released after Eloise’s death is ruled a suicide.

Once free, Adam contacts the Beekeepers, a secret organization, in order to find the scammers responsible, setting out on

a violent mission to avenge Eloise’s death.

The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die

When King Edward of the AngloSaxons dies, Anlaf (Strang), the Viking king of Dublin, travels to his kingdom to take advantage. As none of Edward’s three sons have been appointed his successor, the kingdom is left extremely vulner-

able. Lady Eadgifu (Cassidy), Edward’s third wife and mother of his youngest son, Edmund (Sutcliffe), takes her son and flees to Bebbanburg to seek help from Uhtred (Dreymon), Edward’s former ally. Before departing to stop Edward’s other two sons from attacking each other and save the kingdom from destruction, a vision from the wife of Uhtred’s most trusted warrior prophesizes that for order to be restored, seven kings must die. The chain of events that follows shapes a crucial part of Anglo-Saxon England’s history.

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert

There’s news from the world of the sky. Today [March 25], the CEO of Boeing stepped down. Either that or they never installed the bolts that keep him in the boardroom. He just blew out. ... This all comes after a series of highaltitude whoopsies. ... But they had to do something. Things have gotten so bad

for the company that nervous travelers are changing their flights to avoid Boeing airplanes. I’m sorry, but there is no way to avoid Boeing airplanes. Even if you’re just walking down the street, their doors come to you.

On the way out, the [Boeing] CEO thanked one of his fellow execs for his “tireless service.” Yes, the service —

Bless the USA” Bible. ... [In response to Trump saying that he has many Bibles] Yes, it’s true, many. He has to have spare Bibles because every time he holds one, it bursts into flames.

The Tonight Show

Late Night With Seth Meyers

After his lawyers argued last week [March 17-23] that he did not have the money for the $454-million bond in his civil fraud case, former president [Donald] Trump posted in all caps on Truth Social, quote, “I CURRENTLY HAVE ALMOST $500 MILLION IN CASH.” Dude, they’re trying to help you. That’s like if O.J. tweeted, “The glove fits great.”

One of the things that Joe Biden has been running on in this election is the success and the popularity of Obamacare. It’s part of the radical political theory that people enjoy staying alive.

Today [March 27], ladies and gentlemen, we got a rare positive update on one of [Donald] Trump’s thousands of court cases. Yesterday [March 26], ... the judge in the Stormy Daniels hush money case imposed a gag order on Trump. OK, that’s positive, but raises a disturbing question: how do you gag someone who speaks out of their a**?

Yesterday [March 26], Donald Trump announced a deal to endorse a $60 “God

Starring Jimmy Fallon [Donald] Trump actually caught a break today [March 24] when an appeals court gave him an extra 10 days to post the bond in his civil fraud trial and cut the amount from $464 million to $175 million. ... Having 10 days to come up with $175 million doesn’t sound like good news. It sounds like the plot to a Jason Statham movie.

Amid the ongoing safety investigations, Boeing announced that its CEO is stepping down. Well, don’t let the blown-out door hit you on the way out.

Easter is almost here. And I saw that ‘cause of supply issues, the price of chocolate is hitting record highs. ... Chocolate has gotten so expensive, Donald Trump just paid off his entire debt with a Butterfinger.

I read about a British Airways passenger ... who had to sit through a sevenhour flight with an exposed bolt digging into his head because his seat didn’t have a headrest. I mean, honestly, it’s just nice to hear about a plane that has bolts.

Disgraced former congressman George Santos announced last week [March 17-23] that he plans to run for a Long Island House seat as an independent. Also, a Republican, a Democrat and a Libertarian.

Boeing today [March 25] announced that three of its senior executives are stepping down. Or to put it in Boeing terms, they were sucked out.

McDonald’s announced a new partnership with Krispy Kreme to offer doughnuts at the fast food chain. Because if you love McDonald’s and you love Krispy Kreme, you don’t have the energy to make two stops.

Trump is selling a God Bless the USA Bible, which includes the Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and the Pledge of Allegiance. Great. So now the only thing separating church and state is a bookmark. I’m just kidding. He didn’t open it.

“Jimmy Carr: Natural Born Killer” (2024)

Take a walk on the edgy side when comedian Jimmy Carr presents his new stand-up special, “Jimmy Carr: Natural Born Killer,” Tuesday, April 16, on Netflix. His fourth special for the streamer — following “His Dark Material” (2021), “The Best of Ultimate Gold Greatest Hits” (2019) and “Funny Business” (2016) — Carr brings audiences a new slate of material from his latest tour, as he “refutes the idea that you can’t joke about anything these days with his edgy takes on gun control, religion, cancel culture and consent” (per Netflix). As announced by Netflix in its news release, “1.2 [million] people in 45 countries around the world saw the tour. Now you can see the special. ‘Natural Born Killer’ is the first special Jimmy has directed — with lighting design changes to reflect different sections of the show and fancy tracking shots and editing that rhythmically match the material — it’s a game changer.” Brian Klein (“Top Gear”) also directs.

“Our Living World”

Leap, run, slither and crawl on over to Netflix for the exciting new nature series “Our Living World,” premiering on the streamer Wednesday, April 17. Narrated by Cate Blanchett (“Carol,” 2015), this limited docuseries travels around the world to bring viewers an up-close and personal look at “the extraordinary creatures and ecosystems, great and small, that work together to help restore and sustain Our Living World” (per Netflix). Traveling from Angola to New Zealand and looking at everything from Arctic reindeer, to hippos in Africa, to frogs in the rain forests, the series explores the many unique connections that sustain and unite everything on Earth. As filmmakers, wildlife photographers and scientists come together to display all of nature’s extraordinary intricacies, they also touch on the way this beautiful and delicate balance is under serious threat due to human activity. From Wild Space and Freeborn Media, the Emmy-winning team behind “Our Great National Parks,” the series is produced by Ben Roy (“Hannah Waddingham: Home for Christmas”) and executive produced by James Honeyborne (“Our Great National Parks”).

Based on a true story, the limited series follows the case of 14-yearold Reena Virk (Vritika Gupta, “The Ghost,” 2023), who went to join her friends at a party and never returned home. As the case unfolds through the eyes of Godfrey, portrayed in the series by Riley Keough (“Daisy Jones & The Six”), and Cam Bentland (Lily Gladstone, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” 2023), a local police officer, the story digs deep into the hidden world of the group of teenagers accused of Reena’s murder. Adapted for the screen by Quinn Shephard (“Not Okay,” 2022), “Under the Bridge” also stars Chloe Guidry (“The Last Tycoon”), Javon “Wanna” Walton (“The Umbrella Academy”), Izzy G.
