Will Smith, Michael Misa, Collin Graf, Alexander Wennberg and Adam Gaudette also scored for the Sharks, who won their third straight since a four-game skid.

Alex Newhook had two power-play goals for the Canadiens. Oliver Kapanen, Phillip Danault and Ivan Demidov also scored for Montreal, and Mike Matheson added three assists.

Canadiens rallied with three goals in the third. Newhook's second goal made it 5-5 midway through the third.

Sherwood got deep into Montreal's zone and missed from close range, and Philipp Kurashev controlled the rebound and passed it back to Sherwood for the go-ahead goal.

Yaroslav Askarov had 30 saves for the Sharks. Jakub Dobes stopped 21 of 27 shots for the Canadiens.

Misa, whose overtime score capped San Jose's comeback win over the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday, scored midway through the second period to make it 2-all. Late in the second, Celebrini and Wennberg found the net 25 seconds apart.

Epstein estate's $35 million settlement with accusers wins preliminary judge approval

By Luc Cohen

NEW YORK, March 3 (Reuters) - A U.S. judge granted preliminary approval on Tuesday to an agreement for Jeffrey Epstein's estate to pay as much as $35 ‌million to resolve a class action lawsuit that accused two of the disgraced financier's ‌advisers of aiding and abetting his sex trafficking of young women and teenage girls.

Boies Schiller Flexner, a law firm representing Epstein victims, announced the settlement on February 19. On Tuesday, Manhattan-based U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian said the agreement appeared fair. The judge scheduled a hearing for September 16 to consider granting final approval.

The deal would bring an end to a 2024 lawsuit filed against Epstein's former personal lawyer ‌Darren Indyke and former accountant Richard ⁠Kahn, who are co-executors of Epstein's estate.

Epstein's estate previously set up a restitution fund that paid out $121 million to victims. The estate also paid $49 million ⁠in additional settlements to victims.

Daniel Weiner, a lawyer for Indyke and Kahn, said neither man admitted wrongdoing or conceded misconduct as part of the settlement.

"Because they did nothing wrong, the co-executors were prepared to fight the claims against them through to trial, but agreed to mediate and settle this lawsuit ‌in order to achieve finality as to any potential claims against the Epstein Estate," Weiner said in a statement.

Sigrid McCawley, a lawyer who brought the case, said in a statement, "We are pleased we could take another step forward on that long road for the survivors and provide some sort of justice."

Epstein died in a New York jail in August 2019. His death was ‌ruled a suicide.

Millions of documents released this year by the Justice Department from its investigation into Epstein have shed light on his social ties to wealthy and powerful people around the world.

In the 2024 lawsuit, lawyers at Boies ‌Schiller Flexner said Indyke and Kahn helped Epstein create a complex web of corporations and bank accounts that let him hide his abuses and pay victims and recruiters. Indyke and Kahn were "richly compensated" for their work, the lawsuit said.

The Boies law firm previously helped obtain $365 ‌million of settlements with JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank after accusing them of missing red flags about Epstein, once a lucrative client.

'Yellowstone' Fans Are Really Bummed Out About 'Marshals'

The cavalry of theYellowstonefranchisehas arrived on horseback in the form of spin-off/sequel seriesMarshalson CBS. Being the fourth television series set in continuity but the first tocontinue the storyfrom the flagship series byTaylor Sheridan,Marshalshas a lot to live up to for its legion of fans. Unfortunately, most are disappointed by the results.

On March 1,Marshalspremiered on CBS and streaming on Paramount+. The show sees several familiar faces fromYellowstone, includingLuke Grimes, back inside Sheridan's Montana-sized sandbox. Set after the events of the original show, former Navy SEAL and rancherKayce Dutton(Grimes) takes up a new gig as a specialized US Marshal patrolling the Treasure State.

As of right now, viewership ratings aren't in for the series. But critical reception is lukewarm. OnRotten Tomatoes, the consensus of professional critics lands at 50 percent. The audience consensus is even worse, with a 47 percent "Popcornmeter," meaning that even everyday users of Rotten Tomatoes are unenthused by the new series. How did Esquire's resident Sheridan expert, Josh Rosenberg, feel aboutMarshals?Well, he didn't hold back.

On Reddit and X (née Twitter), fans are split over the series. While someYellowstonefaithful are pleased and promise to tune in for more, others are comparingMarshalsunfavorably withYellowstone. On Reddit's r/YellowstonePN,a thread inviting the subredditto express "first thoughts onMarshals"has comments ranging from disappointment that the show feels like a generic network procedural to outright hatred for the series.

"It was about what I expected for network. It's just formula fiction, like NCIS or CSI but with a Dutton. I'll watch, but I won't feel good about it," wroteu/shannonH73.

"About what I expected. Just another cbs procedural with Yellowstone tacked on to make sure it gets watched. It wasn't awful but certainly wasn't good," wroteu/dwts16.

"Basically SWAT: Montana with a couple characters from Yellowstone. E1 seemed like an episode of the week," saidu/Just_Another_Day_926.

Some commenters thought the show was actually "pretty good," such asu/Realistic-Lake5897. Under their post, contrarians likeu/Prnce_Chrminsaid, "I was only a few minutes in and it felt poorly written with (some) cringe and predictable dialogues, and often filmed in a green room not at real locations, and just sloppy and lazy and very small budget."

In a different threadon r/YellowstonePN, a sarcastic viewer called the show "NCIS: Yellowstone" and said they'll "go back to waiting on the next season ofLandman." The comments are full of similar feelings, althoughu/ViperFive1said that they got what they expected.

"It's been know for a year that this was going to be a network procedural based Yellowstone universe and not simply more Yellowstone. Tonight was fine unless you were expecting something other than exactly what they were telling us it was going to be," they wrote.

"The minute it became a Network show, the dye was cast and it was gonna be a cookie cutter bland show to appease the FCC," saidu/AlexTorres96.

"It was horrible," saidu/Amarylliswpg.

On Musk's Twitter, fans are even saltier overMarshals.

Still, the adage that "you can't please everyone" rings true in the other way. SomeYellowstonefaithful haven't lost hope, and they promise to come back for more.

Oceans Calling just made a splash.

O.A.R.'s self-curated, annual festival — that's hosted by "American Pie" star Jason Biggs (!) — announced their 2026 lineup and once again delivered a slam dunk bill complete with throwback '90s rockers, jam bands, pop icons, punk pioneers, Hip-Hop legends and more set to take the Ocean City Inlet Beach stages from Sept. 25-27.

They'll be joined by Hootie and the Blowfish, Ludacris, Goo Goo Dolls, Third Eye Blind and My Morning Jacket.

"Almost every attendee that I spoke with, veteran and first time Oceans Calling attendees, all thought this year's event was outstanding and well-managed,"OceanCity.comreported about last year's festivities.

They noted that amenities included "hydration stations, ample restroom facilities (with flushing toilets, not just your regular porta potties), charging stations for cell phones, lockers, ADA viewing areas, free rides at the Jolly Roger Amusements on the OC Pier, a first aid tent, and more."

Tyler Perry Denies Sexual Assault Allegations, Calls $77 Million Lawsuit a 'Money Grab'

Tyler Perry denied "each and every allegation" in a newly filed court response to a sexual assault lawsuit from Mario Rodriguez and argued the claims are legally deficient

NEED TO KNOW

Perry's legal team described the lawsuit as a fabricated attempt to extract money after he allegedly stopped providing Rodriguez financial assistance, while Rodriguez is seeking $77 million in damages
Rodriguez, who had a minor role in Boo! A Madea Halloween, alleges Perry made unwanted sexual advances and assaulted him — claims Perry denies as he seeks to move the case to federal court

Tyler Perryis denying sexual assault allegations in a newly filed court response, calling a $77 million lawsuit against him a "money grab."

In an answer filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Feb. 27, Perry denied "each and every allegation" made by Mario Rodriguez and laid out 19 affirmative defenses.

The 56-year-old's attorneys argue the complaint fails to state valid legal claims, that Rodriguez did not suffer damages and that any alleged contact was consensual.

The response goes further, describing the lawsuit as a fabricated attempt to extract money after Perry allegedly stopped providing Rodriguez with financial assistance.

According to the filing, Rodriguez had a "very minor role" in one Perry film about a decade ago and later repeatedly asked for help covering expenses such as housing, medical services and unpaid bills.

Perry is also seeking to move the case to federal court. The filing states that he and Lionsgate intend to remove the action to the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

Rodriguez's initial lawsuit, obtained by PEOPLE, paints a very different picture. He alleges that Perry sexually assaulted him and made unwanted advances while promising acting opportunities. Rodriguez appeared as "Frat Guy #10" in Perry's 2016 filmBoo! A Madea Halloween.

In the complaint, Rodriguez claims Perry invited him to his home under the guise of discussing work and, during one alleged incident in 2018, grabbed him despite repeated requests to stop.

He further alleges Perry told him, "If you were to just be with me, I would take care of you," and says that after two incidents Perry apologized and gave him $5,000. Rodriguez is seeking $77 million in damages.

Perry has denied the allegations. His attorney, Alex Spiro, said in a Dec. 26 statement that the claims are "another demand from more than a decade ago which will also be a failed money grab."

Rodriguez is represented by Jonathan J. Delshad, who also represents Derek Dixon in a separate lawsuit against Perry. Dixon, who starred in Perry's seriesThe Oval, filed a $260 million lawsuit in June alleging sexual harassment, assault and retaliation, which Perry denies. Delshad has said Dixon's claims "are alive and well" after being moved from California to Georgia.

PEOPLE has reached out to representatives for both parties for additional comment.

Alan Cumming addresses BAFTAs, issues apology: 'We were all let down'

Alan Cumming broke his silence on the controversial moment at the 2026 BAFTA Film Awards.

The actor hosted the Feb. 22 award show, where Tourette's advocate John Davidsonhurled a racial slurwhile"Sinners"starsMichael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindowere onstage presenting an award. During the ceremony, Cummingbriefly paused the show to address Davidson's involuntary tics.

In anInstagram poston Monday, March 2, the "Traitors" star spoke about the incident and apologized to the Black and Tourette's communities.

"What should have been an evening celebrating creativity as well as diversity and inclusion turned into a trauma triggering (expletive) show," Cumming said. "I'm so sorry for all the pain Black people have felt at hearing that word echoed around the world."

"I'm so sorry the Tourettes community has been reminded of the lack of understanding and tolerance that abounds regarding their condition," he added.

Oscar hopefuls including Emma Stone ("Bugonia") are stepping out on the red carpet at the 2026 British Academy Film Awards on Sunday, Feb. 22, where "Sinners" and "Once Battle After Another" are vying for best film honors.
