Smart doorbells have evolved into high-tech security tools, but Wi-Fi and battery-powered models often bring headaches like weak signals and constant charging.

From Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret to Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing to Tiger Eyes, novelist Judy Blume wrote books that met kids, tweens, and teens where they were. She discussed puberty, sex, and messy emotions with a frankness that has long scared conservatives, a topic touched on in the terrific documentary Judy Blume Forever. And now her groundbreaking young adult novel about teen love and sex — which has frequently been the subject of book bans — is getting an intriguing TV series adaptation from Netflix.

Creator/showrunner Mara Brock Akil transports the setting of Blume's novel from 1975 New Jersey to 2018 Los Angeles, where two Black teenagers experience first love. Lovie Simone stars as ambitious track star Keisha Clark, while Michael Cooper Jr. plays Justin Edwards, a crush-worthy boy with the muscles of a jock and the brain of a nerd. It's easy to see why they fall for each other. Harder to understand from this first teaser is what could keep them apart?

We'll find out when the series Forever hits Netflix in 2025.

For convenient, on the go-devices, tablets are our go-to travel companions. And among the tablet market, there's no ignoring Apple's iPads. There isn't just one or two models to choose from, as Apple has four different models in its line-up.

This 2024 tablet dropped last year and came loaded with the M4 chip before it had even reached Apple's MacBooks.

Since then, Joe's traveled to Los Angeles, where he scowled at superficial fools and fell in love with Love (Victoria Pedretti). He settled down in suburbia and started a family, before faking his own death burning it all to the ground. In Season 4, he aimed for a fresh start in London, but fell into his old habits with an Edgar Allan Poe-style twist. However, this season, Joe as a powerful ally in Kate (Charlotte Ritchie), who has used her pull to paint him publicly as a brave survivor of a horrid string of violence and death. So, what will these two get up to next? We'll find out this spring.

Chinese AI DeepSeek is incredibly popular right now, but you should be careful about handing it any of your private data.

Researchers over at Wiz reported on Wednesday that they identified a publicly accessible database belonging to DeepSeek, which in turned allowed anyone to access DeepSeek's internal data.

This data included chat logs, secret keys, and other sensitive information, Wiz claims. The text was in Chinese, but that's hardly an issue these days when anyone can use machine translation to translate it.

SEE ALSO: DeepSeek just taught the AI industry 5 hard lessons

Upon its discovery, Wiz promptly disclosed the issue to DeepSeek, which fixed the error. However, it's the type of security flaw that should make you think twice before you use DeepSeek for anything that requires you to hand over even remotely sensitive data.

The details describing the issue are on Wiz's blog, but it boils down to DeepSeek using a ClickHouse database which was accessible without any authentication. Anyone who found this database could have executed an SQL query to get access to more than 1 million log entries, with timestamps, chat logs in plain text, and other metadata that a malicious hacker could've use to extract sensitive information belonging to DeepSeek users.

DeepSeek didn't publicly comment on the issue, and it's unclear whether this security flaw was abused by a third party before Wiz found out about it.

We've contacted DeepSeek about this issue and will update this article when we hear back.

Chinese AI lab DeepSeek has gotten an enormous amount of attention since it launched the latest version of its LLM, DeepSeek R1, earlier in January. DeepSeek R1 beats the best LLMs from U.S. companies, including those from OpenAI, in several key benchmarks, while reportedly being trained with significantly fewer resources. The company's iOS app quickly rose to the top of Apple's App Store, and its launch caused chaos in the U.S. stock market, shaving hundreds of billions off of Nvidia's market cap as the market suddenly anticipated weaker demand for Nvidia hardware.

Since then, several researchers pointed out security weaknesses and privacy issues in the way DeepSeek processes and stores user data.

On Jan. 30, Netflix announced that Squid Game Season 3 will premiere June 27, 2025. That means there's less than six months to go before we find out what happened in the aftermath of Gi-hun's (Lee Jung-jae) failed rebellion — and what the deal is with that new creepy doll.

Along with Squid Game Season 3's release date, Netflix also revealed several first-look photos for the season, which include Gi-hun handcuffed to a bed, the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) contemplating his mask, guard No-eul (Park Gyu-young) standing on what looks like a rocky beach, and the remaining players gathered around a coffin. See all of these below:

Mashable's entertainment team has scoured the streaming services to highlight the most buzzed-about releases of this week and ranked them from worst to best — or least worth your time to most watchable. Whether you're looking for animated adventures, side-splitting comedy, mind-bending drama, or some of the best movies of 2024, we've got something just for you.

Here's what's new on streaming, from worst to best.

9. Dark Match

If you love professional wrestling and gory scares, you'll want to enter the gnarly ring of Dark Match. Written and directed by Wolfcop's Lowell Dean, this horror movie follows a hardscrabble band of wrestlers who accept a lucrative gig in a dubiously remote location. They realize too late that this isn't just a dangerous event, it's a deadly one. Surrounded by Satanists and facing off against a sinister cult leader, will they come out on top or be down for the count?

Per the trailer above, critics have cheered Dark Match's grisly and ultra-violent approach to horror. The low-budget look promises a grimy approach that's sure to thrill fans of midnight movies. But best of all, pro wrestling icon Chris Jericho tags in, bringing his showmanship to the screen with a deranged relish. — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor

Starring: Chris Jericho, Ayisha Issa, Steven Ogg, Sara Canning, Michael Eklund, and Jonathan Cherry

How to watch: Dark Match debuts on Shudder and AMC+ Jan. 31.

8. You're Cordially Invited

Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell teaming up for comedy? With the former making her mark in rom-coms like Legally Blonde and Sweet Home Alabama and the latter known for goofy laffers like Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and Step Brothers, what might audiences expect in a joint venture? Especially when it's directed by Nicholas Stoller, known for such wild fare as Neighbors and Bros? Well, it's a mixed bag.

You're Cordially Invited centers the battled between a no-nonsense TV producer (Witherspoon) and a devoted girl-dad (Ferrell), who are determined to make the wedding of their respective brides-to-be perfect. So when a cozy B&B double-books the nuptials of her sister and his daughter, plenty of hijinks ensue, involving sabotage, Dr. Seuss, and alligators. Blending sentimental moments with cutting barbs and a string of goofy set pieces, You're Cordially Invited is big-hearted but jarringly uneven. Far from the best from any of these comedy luminaries, it's still a joy in bursts. — K.P.

Starring: Will Ferrell, Reese Witherspoon, Geraldine Viswanathan, Meredith Hagner, and Jimmy Tatro

How to watch: You're Cordially Invited debuts on Prime Video Jan 30.

7. Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man

It's a story we've seen a fair few times at this point, but why not again? In Marvel Animation's new series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, we're back to the very beginning with Peter Parker (voiced by Hudson Thames), when he's just acquired his Spidey senses. In this series, he's (barely) surviving high school, living with Aunt May (Kari Wahlgren), and being mentored by the future Green Goblin, scientist Norman Osborn (Colman Domingo). There's plenty of familiar faces to come in this series, including voice appearances from some Daredevil favourites. — Shannon Connellan, UK Editor

Starring: Hudson Thames, Colman Domingo, Hugh Dancy, Cathy Ang, and Paul F. Tompkins

How to watch: Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man debuts on Disney+ Jan. 29.

6. Moana 2

Get ready to go "Beyond" all over again, because Moana 2 is coming to digital. The sequel to Disney's 2016 smash hit reunites us with wayfinder Moana (voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho) as she embarks on a new quest to save her home island of Motunui. This time around, she must find the legendary island of Motufetu, which was cursed long ago by the human-hating god Nalo, and reconnect all the ocean's peoples.

SEE ALSO: The 'Moana 2' directors reveal the meaning of the "never-ending chain"

The ensuing journey is a blast, with Moana's new companions adding extra fun to the high seas, and with demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson) once again bringing his shapeshifting fun to the screen. Yet Moana 2 still falls short of Moana in several ways. Nalo proves to be an underwhelming villain, while Moana 2's songs are simply unmemorable without Lin-Manuel Miranda. As I wrote in my Moana 2 review, "Miranda's presence is greatly missed, with songs often feeling like lackluster rehashes of the first film's songs." — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

Starring: Auliʻi Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson, Hualālai Chung, Rose Matafeo, David Fane, Awhimai Fraser, Khaleesi Lambert-Tsuda, Temuera Morrison, Nicole Scherzinger, Rachel House, Gerald Ramsey, and Alan Tudyk

How to watch: Moana 2 is now available to rent or buy on Apple TV, Prime Video, and more.

5. Mythic Quest, Season 4

If Severance is stressing you out with its puzzle box of office politics, switch gears to the geeks and gaming glory of Mythic Quest.

This Apple TV+ comedy series enters its fourth season with is gang of lovable losers at a dizzying high. Quirky coder Poppy (Charlotte Nicdao) and arrogant tech bro Ian (Rob McElhenney) are striding confidently into their next collaboration. Former game-tester turned game designer Dana (Imani Hakim) is wildly popular online, and her partner Rachel (Ashly Burch) is climbing the corporate ladder behind always-rattled exec David (David Hornsby). But fret not, fans.

New episodes will feature freshly funny calamities for our band of heroes to tackle, including going to testify before Congress, facing professional jealousies, personal rivalries, and a murder-mystery party on a remote island (very Knives Out). Whether you have an office job that's drinking you to the bring of madness, or you just love the Always Sunny vibes this sister series offers in bunches, you'll treasure this wild and goofy new season. — K.P.

Starring: Rob McElhenney, Ashly Burch, Jessie Ennis, Imani Hakim, David Hornsby, Charlotte Nicdao, Danny Pudi, F. Murray Abraham, and Naomi Ekperigin

How to watch: Mythic Quest Season 4 premieres Jan. 29 on Apple TV+.

4. Paradise

Hulu's Paradise reunites This Is Us star Sterling K. Brown and creator Dan Fogelman for a thriller series that's equal parts twisty, ridiculous, and fun. To say too much about the show is to risk spoiling its biggest surprise, so for now, all I'll say is that it takes place in the aftermath of the murder of U.S. President Cal Bradford (James Marsden, Jury Duty). His head of security, Xavier Collins (Brown), is on the case — but he's also the number-one suspect.

If Paradise's initial political conspiracy conceit doesn't quite win you over, I'd still recommend watching so you can experience the premiere's bonkers twist for yourself. It truly kicks Paradise into an entirely different gear, to the point that I wrote my entire review about how the twist "took me from 'meh' to 'this rocks, actually' within the span of [Paradise's] very first episode." Seriously, brace yourself for a damn fun time. — B.E.

Starring: Sterling K. Brown, James Marsden, Julianne Nicholson, Sarah Shahi, Nicole Brydon Bloom, Jon Beavers, Krys Marshall, Aliyah Mastin, and Percy Daggs IV

How to watch: The first three episodes of Paradise are now streaming on Hulu, with a new episode every week.

3. Sing Sing

See the critically heralded drama that's scored three Oscar nominations, including Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Actor. Named for the prison from which its story blossomed, Sing Sing is based on the real-life Rehabilitation Through the Arts program at Sing Sing Maximum Security Prison in New York. There, incarcerated men are offered the chance to express themselves through putting on a theatrical production. In the film, co-written and directed by Greg Kwedar, this company of players builds a community and confidence that is life-changing for everyone involved.

Beyond being a feel-good tale about the power of creativity, Sing Sing carries a profound weight of realness, casting formerly incarcerated people alongside Colman Domingo, who earned a 2024 Oscar nom for the lead role in the biopic Rustin.

In his review of the film out the 2024 SXSW film festival, critic Siddhant Adlakha cheered, "For the men of Sing Sing, art becomes both refuge and rebellion, presented not only as a coping mechanism for incarceration, but a therapeutic alternative. Kwedar, through his gentle visual approach, affords each imprisoned character (and formerly imprisoned actor) the room — and just as importantly, the time — to tell their own stories, in ways that cinema seldom does. The result is a heartrending, visually enrapturing balm for the soul." — K.P.

Starring: Colman Domingo, Clarence Maclin, Sean San José, and Paul Raci

How to watch: Sing Sing is now available for purchase on Prime Video.

2. Mo, Season 2

One of 2022's most important TV shows, comedian Mo Amer's excellent Netflix series Mo has returned for its second and final season. Created by Amer with Ramy Youssef, Season 2 picks up with Mo Najjar (Amer, playing a version of himself), a Palestinian refugee living in the U.S. who accidentally deported himself to Mexico without a passport last season (those olive trees!). Mo's struggle to get back to the U.S. is a timely depiction, taking him through an unfeeling embassy, a dangerous border crossing, and a horrendous detention facility on the Texas border — and that's all before he learns the love of his life, Maria (Teresa Ruiz), is seeing someone else back home. But somehow, beyond all belief, Mo finds levity in the dark. More timely than ever, Mo examines both the institutional dehumanisation of immigrants and the varied experiences of his Palestinian family — all while being a hilarious, superbly written comedy show about a guy just trying to succeed. — S.C.

Starring: Mo Amer, Farah Bsieso, Teresa Ruiz, Tobe Nwigwe, and Omar Elba

How to watch: Mo Season 2 debuts on Netflix Jan. 30.

1. Babygirl

She got snubbed at the Oscars, but we still love Babygirl.

As a titillating follow-up to the humorous whodunnit Bodies Bodies Bodies, writer/director Halina Reijn delivered Babygirl. Nicole Kidman stars as a high-powered CEO balancing a demanding professional life with a personal life that includes her gentle theater director husband (Antonio Banderas) and high-energy teen daughters (Vaughan Reilly and Esther McGregor). Her world turns upside down when a cocky intern (Harris Dickinson) begins to flirt — very inappropriately — with her.

SEE ALSO: 'Babygirl' finally shows us what subspace feels like

Delving into the juicy topics of sex, power dynamics, forbidden lust, and identity, Babygirl is an electrifying blend of humor and yearning that is absolutely dizzying, in the best way possible. As I wrote in our rave review out of TIFF, "Emotionally naked, unapologetically provocative, and defiantly playful, Reijn's film joyfully explores the complicated ties that bind. Amid stiff competition, she delivers one of the sexiest, most thrilling films of the year." — K.P.

Starring: Nicole Kidman, Harris Dickinson, Sophie Wilde, and Antonio Banderas

How to watch: Babygirl is now available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.
