Dave Itzkoff

I’m a reporter on the Culture desk. Here are five things I’ve been watching and playing lately.

The star of “Ant-Man” and “Avengers: Endgame” confronts himself, quite literally, playing both an imperfect man and his perfect clone in “Living With Yourself.”

Other “S.N.L.” veterans including Pete Davidson, Cecily Strong and Kate McKinnon will return to the show, which is adding three new featured players.

In the opening sketch of “Saturday Night Live,” Kate McKinnon played Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, attempting to explain the latest recommendations for people who are fully vaccinated.

The actress spent the day indulging in a quick ice bath, looking at cows and receiving an Emmy nomination for her performance on the HBO series.

With “Plan B” and “Language Lessons,” the actress is finally getting to start a career behind the camera, a goal one talent agency couldn’t understand.

Jac Schaeffer shared some of the secrets behind the show’s origins, its Marvel-size finale and those impossibly catchy tunes.

“The Real World Homecoming: New York” brings back the housemates from the inaugural season of the MTV series that set the standards of reality television, for better and for worse.

The actress, who plays the title character’s daughter, Tutar, talks about body hair, her “nonbiological father” Sacha Baron Cohen, and that scene with Rudy Giuliani.

The co-creator of “The Office” says that viewers can handle his dark Netflix comedy series: “We worry about what the people at home can take. Real life’s worse.”
