‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Trailer is Making Us Ache for More: WATCH

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is being hailed as of the best trailers we’ve seen in years as it serves up lots of juicy details without revealing the plot of the film.

Some questions and details thrown out there about Episode VIII: Would Kylo Ren really destroy his mother General Leia Organa’s ship? And how will her storyline end? Is Rey headed to the dark side? What’s the significance of so many shots of Luke Skywalker’s robot hand and why is he so broken? Is he the savior she was expecting? How annoying will the Porgs (the creature on board the Millenium Falcon with Chewbacca) be? Who wants a pet ice wolf? Who is Snoke talking about (Kylo or Rey?) when he says, “When I found you, I saw raw, untamed power. And beyond that, something truly special.”

And what of Finn and Poe, who says, “We are the spark that will light the fire that will burn the First Order down.”

Whatever happens, as Skywalker notes, “This is not going to go the way you think.”

Watch, and watch again, and watch again:

‘Riverdale’ Returns, Scandal on the ‘Runway’ and More TV This Week…

Check out our weekly guide to TV this week, and make sure you’re catching the big premieres, crucial episodes and the stuff you won’t admit you watch when no one’s looking.

On Wednesday, celebrate National Coming Out Day and the 50th anniversary of the UK decriminalizing homosexuality with Queers, a series of short films about queer people throughout British history. The films, curated by Mark Gatiss, feature appearances from Alan Cumming, Russell Tovey and Ben Winshaw. BBC America will be playing the films throughout the day at 10 a.m., 3 p.m. 6:30 p.m., 10 p.m. and 2:15 a.m. Eastern.

Season two of the CW’s steamy, vaguely supernatural teen thriller Riverdale kicks off Wednesday at 8 pm. Eastern. Come for the abs, stay for the Archie-inspired intrigue.

We’ve been gagging over this season of Project Runway. After last week’s episode ended on another cliffhanger, we’re going to be on the edge of our palazzo pants waiting to see what goes down in an unprecedented runway scandal, Thursday at 9 p.m. Eastern on NBC.

Rebecca Bloom is back in one of TV’s most refreshing and original comedies. Season three of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend comes high-kicking back into our lives Friday at 8 p.m. Eastern on the CW.

Comedian Kumail Nanjiani takes the reigns as host of SNL at 11:30 p.m. Eastern on NBC. He certainly will be an improvement after Gal Gadot’s lackluster performance last episode.
