Rivals Season 2 Delivers Frothy Fun with Bardic Flair on Hulu

Hulu’s Rivals Season 2 keeps its frothy, sexual energy as two rival broadcasters in the 1980s countryside vie for a contract, with Taggie as the moral center amid a web of affairs and wry social commentary. The ensemble delivers sharp wit and heat, while Shakespearean flavor threads through the escapist plot. Although the release schedule (part drops and weekly episodes) is frustrating, the season remains fresh, funny and highly watchable — a standout in its genre.

Rivals Season 2 Delivers High-Stakes Glamour and Sharp Wit on Hulu

Hulu’s Rivals returns with a glossy, razor-sharp Season 2 that amps up the Rutshire power plays: David Tennant’s Tony Baddingham faces off against Rupert Campbell-Black and Declan O’Hara as they launch Venturer to challenge Corinium, weaving ruthless ambition, romance, and 1980s-era excess into a tightly staged, immersive soap. The ensemble—especially Bella Maclean as Taggie and the standout supporting cast—receives ample room to shine as the drama expands with new intrigues, espionage, and twists. Episode 2 delivers a standout dinner-party sequence, and the first half of the season signals a stronger, more polished continuation overall. The three-episode debut drops May 15 on Hulu, with remaining installments to follow later this year.

"American Airlines' Labor Costs Lead to $545 Million Loss Amidst Rival's Profit Surge"

American Airlines reported a loss of $545 million in the third quarter, citing higher labor costs due to a new contract with its pilots. This is in contrast to the significant profits posted by its rivals, United Airlines and Delta Air Lines, who reached similar deals with their pilots and earned $1.1 billion each in the same period. American's revenue remained flat compared to last summer, while United and Delta saw double-digit increases. Rising fuel prices and concerns over increasing costs for airlines are adding to industry anxiety. American Airlines paid down $1.4 billion in debt during the quarter.
