Tonight, John Mulaney's new live talk show debuts on Netflix. Can Everybody's Live bring back the magic of late-night television? Plus, we have a simple guide to watch complications, including everything from the humble date window to the mind-blowing perpetual calendar. Let's get into it.

Can John Mulaney Save Late-Night TV?

It’s not a great time to be a late-night talk show host. Ratings are down pretty much across the board. Shows like Late Night With Seth Meyers and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon have been forced to make cuts, ditching their house band and scaling back production to four days a week, respectively, as NBC trims its budget. And in recent years, the genre as a whole has had to reckon with the fact that most people would rather watch celebrities sweat through a series of hot wings on YouTube than sit through a traditional late-night interview promoting their latest project.

In other words, it’s a weird time for John Mulaney to be launching Everybody’s Live With John Mulaney, a weekly live talk show which kicks off tonight on Netflix and will air every Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET for an initial 12-week run (and has already been renewed for a second season). an he bring the magic back to late night? That remains to be seen, but these are our biggest questions.

A Guide to Watch Complications

Have you been getting an earful from your watch collector friends about “complications” and have positively no idea what they’re talking about? Well, you’ve come to the right place. It actually isn’t all that complicated, after all.

A “complication” is any feature of a watch other than basic time-telling. That little window that displays the date is technically a complication. A chronograph, which measures elapsed time, is also a complication. In an effort to catalog this array of fascinating and complex mechanical wonders, we’re going to define each and show you an example timepiece we feel illustrates the watch complication well.

The Buggiest New Car I’ve Ever Driven

Tesla is in trouble. Sales are falling precipitously across the board in Europe, despite overall growth in electric vehicles; longtime American strongholds like California are turning against the brand as CEO Elon Musk remains toxic to a sizable percentage of potential customers; meanwhile, other automakers are constantly improving their EV offerings. Put it all together and Tesla faces a world of financial hurt.

The cracks appearing in Tesla’s outlook are shining a light on opportunities now open to its rivals — in particular those that are able to attack its incredibly popular entry-level models, the Model 3 sedan and the Model Y SUV. Enter the Volvo EX30, a vehicle that was announced two years ago as the first cost-conscious EV offering from the Swedish brand, bearing an initial price tag of around $35,000.
