Apple wants to put its smartphones to the test, with the company set to broadcast a Major League Soccer (MLS) match live and shot only on the iPhone 17 Pro.

Announced Thursday, Apple TV will team up with MLS to air the LA Galaxy vs. Houston Dynamo FC match on Saturday, May 23, live from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California.

Who's the creator you tell everyone to follow? Vote for them in Mashable's Fan Fav.

The broadcast will be the first time iPhones have been the sole cameras used to film a major live pro sports broadcast. Apple used iPhone 17s for select moments of a live broadcast of the Boston Red Sox and the Detroit Tigers in September 2025, and has been regularly using iPhones to support Friday Night Baseball and MLS broadcasts since.

Only iPhone 17s with their three 48-megapixel Fusion cameras will be used to film Saturday's match. In Mashable's review of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, Stan Schroeder praised them as "the best I’ve ever tried" on a smartphone, with particular praise for that 8x optical-quality zoom. According to Apple, the iPhones will be set up throughout the venue to "capture live footage throughout the match, including team warmups on the pitch, player introductions, in-net goal angles, and the atmosphere inside the stadium."

Apple's partnership with the MLS is the company's latest move to top streaming competitors, seizing a piece of the live sports space.

The LA Galaxy vs. Houston Dynamo FC match will be streaming on Apple TV at 7:30 p.m. PT on May 23.

Featured Video For You How F1 became a global obsession

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.

Released in August 2025, Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.

Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move on to the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.

How to play Pips

If you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity with how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match.

SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for May 22, 2026

The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible — and common — for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.

Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:

• Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.

• Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.

• Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.

• Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.

• Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.

If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.

After 11 years, The Late Show ended on a musical note.

In the footage above, Stephen Colbert comes out of the other side of a giant late night-destroying wormhole to join in on a performance of "Jump Up" with Louis Cato, Jon Batiste and Elvis Costello, before Paul McCartney joins them for a rendition of The Beatles' "Hello, Goodbye".

As the song ends Colbert's family and the entire show staff come up to the stage, before we cut to Colbert in a corridor with McCartney, getting ready to pull a giant "Late Show" lever.

The lights go off in the building, the entire Ed Sullivan Theater is shrunk down to a tiny snow globe, and Colbert's dog Benny makes a final cameo as he gives it a sniff.

"Come on Benny, let's go," says Colbert off camera. Then we fade to black.

If you haven't watched Colbert's final Late Show monologue yet, you can catch up on Mashable.

Each puzzle features 16 words, and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake — players get up to four mistakes before the game ends.

Is this the death of late night television?

In one of the final Late Show skits above it certainly seems that way, with Stephen Colbert seeking help from Jon Stewart, John Oliver, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon after he's confronted with a gigantic wormhole that threatens to destroy late night TV.

"Why aren't you guys being pulled in too?" asked Colbert.

"You know what, actually one of these holes opened at my show last year, but it went away after about three days," says Kimmel.

"Is that what's going to happen to me too?" asks a hopeful Colbert, but the only response from the others is a group "Shhh" a handful of fingers placed on host's lips.

It's been 30 years since the masked Ghostface killer's on-screen debut in the iconic slasher film that launched a franchise. Scream has veered in many directions since, but with Scream 7, it goes back to its roots: Final Girl Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) versus Ghostface.

The seventh installment also brings back Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers, Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding as twins Mindy and Chad Meeks-Martin, and the legendary Matthew Lillard as Stu Macher from the first film.

If a "hearty dose of nostalgia," as Mashable's entertainment editor puts it, is what you're after, Scream 7 serves it up on a platter. But there's also plenty of new ideas, reveals, and scares to keep it fresh.

If you missed it in theaters or can't wait to watch it again, Scream 7 starts streaming this spring. Here's what you need to know to watch it at home.

What is Scream 7 about?

"Scream 7 brings Campbell back to the center of the story, restoring some of the original concept's simplicity," as Mashable's Kristy Puchko writes. Sidney Prescott (Campbell) has left Woodsboro for good and has been living peacefully in Pine Grove, Indiana, with her husband Mark (Joel McHale) and daughter Tatum (Isabel May). But there's no real rest for Sidney in the Scream franchise, is there? Ghostface has set sights on her teenage daughter, and Sidney's forced to confront her past (again) to save Tatum.

Get a glimpse at the latest installment in the official trailer below:

Is Scream 7 worth watching?

A quick glance at Rotten Tomatoes shows a major divide between critics and audiences, with a 31 percent critic rating and 75 percent audience rating. In addition to delivering the biggest box office debut the decades-old horror series has ever seen, it's also become the highest-grossing film in the franchise. So, whether critics like it or not, audiences are showing up for Scream 7.

Mashable's own lead film critic is "elated" with the latest Scream film. "As someone who has long counted Scream as the best of the batch, I yearned for a sequel that recaptured that feeling of discovery but also shared in my affection for the first film. Scream 7 does that, paying homage without being beholden to audience expectation or constrictive lore. Incredibly, Williams gives us a hearty dose of nostalgia and Easter eggs while providing new ideas, weird reveals, and fresh chills," she writes.

Paramount+ raised its prices in January 2026, so subscriptions now start at $8.99 per month. However, there are a few different ways you can save, including an annual subscription plan, a student plan, and a third-party partnership. We've rounded up the details below.

You can save 17% on the Paramount+ Essential or Premium plan if you opt for an annual plan for either $89.99 or $139.99 instead. That brings the monthly cost down to just $11.67 instead of $13.99 for the Premium plan or $7.49 instead of $8.99 for the Essential plan. You'll have to pay more upfront, but you'll also get more bang for your buck.

The 2026 American Music Awards (AMAs) — aka the world's largest music awards show voted by fans — returns on Memorial Day. Live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, the awards will honor the most popular songs and artists of the past year. That includes Sabrina Carpenter, Bad Bunny, Olivia Dean, Kendrick Lamar, Alex Warren, SOMBR, RAYE, and of course, Taylor Swift.

It's sure to be a talent-filled evening, packaged with grand performances and tributes. Plus, of course, some major winners and upsets. Here's everything you need to know to watch the AMAs live at home.

When are the American Music Awards?

The 52nd AMAs will take place on Monday, May 25 (Memorial Day), at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT). Queen Latifah will host the awards live from Las Vegas.

What channel are the AMAs on?

For the second year in a row, the AMAs will air live on CBS for those with cable. And because we're in the age of streaming, CBS's streaming sibling Paramount+ will also simulcast the awards show via its Paramount+ Premium tier only. The Paramount+ Essential plan will only get you access to the on-demand broadcast the day after the awards air.

How to watch the American Music Awards live without cable

For those who no longer have cable or access to their local CBS network, you'll have a few different options for tuning in live and for free.

The easiest way to watch is through a Paramount+ Premium subscription. The streamer itself no longer offers a free trial, but if you sign up through Prime Video, you'll get seven days of free streaming.

You can also opt for a live TV streaming service that broadcasts your local CBS station, which will allow you to watch for free with a trial if you're a new subscriber. Scroll for a breakdown of the best ways to watch the American Music Awards live and for free.

Watch for free: Paramount+ Premium free trial

As noted above, Paramount+ no longer offers a seven-day trial for new subscribers. But if you have an Amazon Prime account, you can still score a free week of streaming with the Paramount+ Premium add-on. That'll allow you to easily tune in to the AMAs for free.

If you can't score a free trial, the only other way to save some money on a Paramount+ Premium subscription is by opting for the annual plan over the monthly plan. Usually $13.99 per month, the price drops down to just $11.67 per month if you pay for a year up front. That's about 17% in savings.

While it's a lot more expensive than Paramount+, YouTube TV will also give you live access to local channels, including CBS, so you can tune in to the AMAs as they're happening. And if you've never signed up previously, you'll get a 10-day trial to watch for free. Just set a reminder to cancel before the 10 days are up, or you'll be hit with a $67.99 blow to your bank account. After three months, that price then jumps back up to the full cost of $82.99.

Gothic horror is going from mad to madcap with Victorian Psycho, a horror comedy that follows a murderous governess to her next — and possibly last — appointment.

Maika Monroe stars as Winifred Notty, a governess who is desperate to make a good impression on her new employers, the Pound family. The broad strokes of the plotline are tropes of Gothic horror. A seemingly fragile young woman must care for the young, defenseless children of a rich and twisted family. At night, strange noises might be heard about their grand house. The family's treasures go missing or are vandalized. Members of the staff vanish without a word. Could it be a ghost or ghoul whose very presence could drive this poor heroine mad? Well, no. Because from the very start, Victorian Psycho shows us its protagonist is already mad, and also the vicious thing that goes bump in the night.

The title alone gives some clue of the topsy-turvy approach that Virginia Feito, who wrote the novel and this adapted screenplay, has to the genre. Director Zachary Wigon (Sanctuary) cements this cheeky attitude with an opening scene in which Winifred addresses the audience in voiceover while looking straight into the camera. There's a sense of Fleabag in this distorted direct address to the audience, as Winifred insists she is the sanest person she's ever met.

This is just the first red flag, warning that Winifred Notty is much more than naughty. Soon after, a dismembered human ear tumbles out of her luggage; she regards it with slight irritation. From here, Victorian Psycho blooms into a deliciously bonkers spin on gothic horror with an eat-the-rich edge.

Victorian Psycho blends gore, goofiness, and class conflict.

On the surface, Winifred seems a darling young woman, eager to be accepted into a household that'll appreciate her. She's demure when meeting the servants of the Pound estate, as well as the family themselves. Among them, there is a mightily mustachioed father (Jason Isaacs), a fearsome mother (Ruth Wilson), teen daughter Drusilla (Evie Templeton), and the spoiled little heir to the family fortune, Andrew (Hamnet's Jacobi Jupe).

But there's a spiky antisocial undercurrent to Winifred, especially when she's left alone with the children. She speaks of the wickedness and pain that lie inside all living things, frightening the young Master Andrew, who watches in shock as she bludgeons a fallen deer to death with a rock. Still, few around her could imagine what horrid secrets she's left behind her, and what deranged fantasies fuel her dark heart. She swiftly befriends the children's nurse, Miss Lamb (Thomasin McKenzie), and offers to this wide-eyed waif tales of a ghoul that's prowling the property. For how else to explain the blood all over Winifred's dress?

When it comes to Winifred's violence, Wigon is unblinking in brandishing spurts of blood but knows when to keep certain especially heinous homicides off-camera. This keeps the tone of Victorian Psycho thrillingly zany, despite the grim content.

As for Feito, she seems to pull inspiration from Jane Austen's brilliantly dummy dialogue for oblivious rich folk. These are caricatures of entitled affluence. The father bloviates about the value of phrenology, a pseudoscience that proposed personality could be predicted by skull shape. The mother punishes a scullery maid by chopping off the girl's long hair after a strand once ended up in her soup.

Like with Saltburn, there's a delicious lunacy to watching these careless rich assholes embrace an outsider who's sure to bring them to ruin. Not all of Winifred's targets feel as worthy of her brutal brand of comeuppance. Still, the breathtaking cruelty is part of the fucked-up thrill ride.

Maika Monroe gives a career-best performance in Victorian Psycho.

The American actress's career has been largely defined by horror since she broke through in 2014 with a supporting role in the gripping thriller The Guest and then starred in the STD-as-slasher allegory It Follows. Though she's done a slew of films since then, horror offerings like Watcher, Longlegs, and The Hand That Rocks The Cradle stand out. Yet here, she's turned from haunted heroines of her filmography and gothic horror in general to become a compelling monster all her own.

Typically, in these types of stories, like Crimson Peak, The Others, or The Turning of the Screw, the heroine is an innocent with good character and bravery in the face of an inhuman threat. Here, Winifred is that threat, and Monroe makes a meal out of playing the baddie as if she's been starving for the opportunity (though, yes, she's been the villain before).

There's an electrifying mix of menace and mischievousness in her delivery, whether she's flirting with the nurse or threatening a child. Her face shifts smoothly from a mask of civility to a reveal of wrath or revulsion. However, when Winifred gives over to her dark side, Monroe's performance ratchets into a gnarled physicality of demonic possession, which will likely remind viewers of Lily-Rose Depp's turn in Nosferatu. On top of all of this, Monroe offers a sharp humor through unhinged physicality that cuts deep as a shattered tea cup shard through a jugular.

Victorian Psycho offers fantastic WTF moments.

In scenes where Winifred is spiraling out of control, high-angle cinematography from Nico Aguilar distorts her proportions, turning this beautiful woman into a warped stranger. Whip pans, rarely used in period pieces, snap from a could-be victim's expression of shock to Winifred's face, and it can feel like a slap to it. But the gnarliest visual choices are when Aguilar gives a point-of-view of objects of violence, like the aforementioned dismembered ear or the rock used to fatally brain the deer. Such choices not only throw an exciting manic energy into Victorian Psycho but also force the audience to feel a part of the action, either to be gobbled up by Winifred's all-consuming darkness or party to it.

Composer Ariel Marx embellishes this tone of creepy complicity with a score studded with familiar and strange sounds. You might hear a plunking piano or stinging strings, common instrumental choices for gothic horror. Sometimes, there are slippery sounds (maybe a theremin? Or a saw being bowed?) and distorted voices, perhaps the cries of babies. These aural collisions of the expected and unexpected reflect how Feito and Wigon build on the bones of gothic horror, but create something more modern with their mesmerizing murderess.

In the end, Victorian Psycho is a hoot, wildly fun, and unapologetically deranged on its surface. Then, just beneath that, Feito, Wigon, and Monroe weave a tapestry of class conflict, sexism, and trauma that urges audiences to probe deeper to understand that while Winifred is a monster, she was not born one. Instead, she was made from a society that regards cruelty as another luxury the ultra-wealthy get to take for granted. Well, that is, until someone reflects it back.

Victorian Psycho was reviewed out of the 2026 Cannes Film Festival; it will open in the U.S. on Sept. 25.
