Confirmed to release a third season in the near future, a TLC favorite, “I Love a Mama’s Boy” brings back more unhinged standoffs and heated debates. The show follows multiple pairs of couples, aging from late twenties to early thirties, who are about to enter the next stages of their lives – marriage or lifelong commitments. In front of them, however, lies a controlling mother who attempts to interfere with the majority of their great life decisions and a dependent MAMA’s BOY. In short, “I Love a Mama’s Boy” is a perfect guilty pleasure for a Thursday night to satisfy your demand for uncomfortable family dramas.

The Festival of the Creative Arts was founded in 1952 by Leonard Bernstein, who not only was a member of the Brandeis faculty, but also a renowned musician. He was a composer, pianist, educator, author, and humanitarian. He is probably best known for his work in musical theater, particularly in “West Side Story.” However, more so than his knowledge and great achievements, he strived to make the arts visible and accessible to all, hence the Festival of the Creative Arts. He called it “a moment of inquiry for the whole world when civilization looks at itself, seeking a key to the future.”

Aries: This is a big week in astrology, Aries! For the first time in over 150 years, this Tuesday, Jupiter is joining Neptune in Pisces. Now with Jupiter (the planet of intellectual ideas and luck) and Neptune (the planet of dreams and illusions) meeting in dreamy Pisces in your 12th house (which rules spirituality and the subconscious), you are in for a dreamy week guaranteed! If you’ve been waiting for a spiritual awakening, this might be it. Keep an eye out for any spiritual messages or “coincidences” this week. With Venus and Mars joining the party in Pisces later this week, you may find yourself much more introspective than usual. Take this energy and roll with it! Maybe you’ll even learn some new things about yourself along the way.

Charli XCX’s new album “Crash” came out this week on March 18. It’s an electro-pop confection that is designed to bridge the gap between Charli’s experimental side and the music that might actually be played on the radio. In that regard, it’s probably a failure.
