On Halloween 2010, Spoke Art gallery in San Francisco put on a fancy dress opening night for a popup exhibition of art inspired by the films of Wes Anderson. “We opened the doors and found hundreds of fans wrapped around the block clamouring to get in,” says gallery owner Ken Harman, “We knew we were on to something special.” Since then, the gallery has put on yearly exhibitions of Wes Anderson-themed paintings, prints and sculptures. “There are so many elements of Anderson's films that artists can pull inspiration from: the compositions of individual scenes, the colour palette, costume design, soundtrack, general aesthetic... the list goes on.” A selection of art from these shows has been compiled in The Wes Anderson Collection: Bad Dads, out on 9 August (Abrams £18.99).

A new statue of Lucille Ball was unveiled in the late actor's hometown on Saturday which would have been her 105th birthday, replacing one that was so disliked it came to be known as “Scary Lucy”.
Hundreds of fans chanting “Lucy! Lucy!” gathered in Lucille Ball Memorial Park in the western New York village of Celoron to watch as the tarp was removed from the statue made by sculptor Carolyn Palmer.

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which takes on Nasa's most ambitious missions, runs a studio where a mix of design and engineering creates stunning results
If you've marveled at space news recently, there's a good chance it's thanks to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. This arm of Nasa is responsible for the most ambitious of missions, like sending robots to Mars and, most recently, the Juno spacecraft to Jupiter.
But the JPL has another under-the-radar mission: uniting two uncommon bedfellows design and science in new and meaningful ways.

The big winner was FX's The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, which won three awards: Outstanding Achievement in Movies, Miniseries, and Specials, Program of the Year, and Individual Achievement in Drama for Sarah Paulson's portrayal of prosecutor Marcia Clark. Unlike most awards shows, the TCA Awards doesn't split acting categories by gender, and both acting awards went to women this year, with Rachel Bloom winning Individual Achievement in Comedy for her work on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. In addition, Lily Tomlin was honored with a Career Achievement Award, making the individual awards an all-women sweep. Amber Dowling, the president of the TCA, commented on the gender balance:
We had an unprecedented amount of female winners this year, which is a testament to both the talented actresses who were honored tonight, as well as to the growing number of high-quality roles being created for and by women. It's extremely encouraging to see this growing trend being embraced, accepted, and expanded upon, and I look forward to seeing even more of it in the future.
Like The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, many of the other winners were in their first season. Full Frontal with Samantha Bee won Outstanding Achievement in News and Information, Making of a Murderer won Outstanding Achievement in Reality Programming, and Mr. Robot won Outstanding New Program. Outstanding Achievement in Drama went to The Americans for the second year running, while Black-ish took home Outstanding Achievement in Comedy and Outstanding Achievement in Youth Programming went to Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood. Finally, the Heritage Award went to The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
The TCA Awards are voted on by members of the Television Critics Association, which consists of more than 200 U.S. and Canadian television critics.
