Is This Your King?
New York magazine|June 17 - 30, 2024
On House of the Dragon's second season, Tom Glynn-Carney is so good at playing pathetically bad you almost forget you're supposed to hate him.

Is This Your King?

TOM GLYNN-CARNEY is looking to grow his record collection. His parents gave him a record player five years ago, and there's something about vinyl-its tactile nature, its innate romanticism, how it shows its age-that appeals to the actor and musician, whose preferences tend toward the vintage. He's partial to secondhand clothes, and on this sunny late-May day in New York, his outfit is a mélange of earth tones, including a forest-green cable-knit sweater vest that shows off a left arm decorated with tattoos. Petite gold hoops glint in his ears. On our walk to Rough Trade in midtown, he excitedly tells me about the specific record he's looking for: 2008's The Seldom Seen Kid, by Elbow, a British band led by singer and songwriter Guy Garvey, whom Glynn-Carney calls "the nucleus" of his musical taste. Inside the store, we make a beeline for the used bins and can't find it; we're not lucky in the alternative-rock section, either. When an employee confirms the store doesn't have the album, Glynn-Carney is disappointed yet quick with a joke: "I'm just more saddened for the people of New York."

THE BEST ART SHOWS OF THE YEAR

IN NOVEMBER, Sotheby's made history when it sold for a million bucks a painting made by artificial intelligence. Ai-Da, \"the first humanoid robot artist to have an artwork auctioned by a major auction house,\" created a portrait of Alan Turing that resembles nothing more than a bad Francis Bacon rip-off. Still, the auction house described the sale as \"a new frontier in the global art market.\"

THE BIGGEST PODCAST MOMENTS OF THE YEAR

A STRANGE THING happened with podcasts in 2024: The industry was repeatedly thrust into the spotlight owing to a preponderance of head-turning events and a presidential-election cycle that radically foregrounded the medium's consequential nature. To reflect this, we've carved out a list of ten big moments from the year as refracted through podcasting.

THE BEST THEATER OF THE YEAR

IT'S BEEN a year of successful straight plays, even measured by a metric at which they usually do poorly: ticket sales. Partially that's owed to Hollywood stars: Jeremy Strong, Jim Parsons, Rachel Zegler, Rachel McAdams (to my mind, the most compelling).

THE BEST ALBUMS OF THE YEAR

2024 WAS one big stress test that presented artists with a choice: Face uncomfortable realities or serve distractions to the audience. Pop music turned inward while hip-hop weathered court cases and incalculable losses. Country struggled to reconcile conservative interests with a much wider base of artists. But the year's best music offered a reprieve.

THE BEST TELEVISION OF THE YEAR

IT WAS SURPRISING how much 2024 felt like an uneventful wake for the Peak TV era. There was still great television, but there was much more mid or meh television and far fewer moments when a critical mass of viewers seemed equally excited about the same series.

PEOPLE LOVED Megalopolis, hated it, puzzled over it, clipped it into memes, and tried to astroturf it into a camp classic, but, most important, they cared about it even though it featured none of the qualities you'd expect of a breakthrough work in these noisy times.
