  • Hi, it's Alexa Weibel from New York Times Cooking.

  • We've got tons of easy weeknight recipes, and today I'm making my five-ingredient creamy miso pasta.

  • You just take your starchy pasta water, whisk it together with a little bit of miso and butter until it's creamy.

  • Add your noodles and a little bit of cheese.

  • Hmm.

  • It's like a grown-up box of mac and cheese that feels like a restaurant-quality dish.

  • New York Times Cooking has you covered with easy dishes for busy weeknights.

  • You can find more at nytcooking.com.

  • From the New York Times, this is The Interview.

  • I'm Lulu Garcia Navarro.

  • In the trailer for the new animated series Number One Happy Family USA,

  • there's a tagline that reads From the Childhood Nightmares of Rami Youssef.

  • Now, it might sound like a warning, but the show itself is really very funny.

  • It follows the fictional Hussein family as they try to fit into a changing America in the aftermath of 9-Eleven,

  • and it's punctuated with original songs, irreverent humor, and more than a nod to shows like South Park.

  • Youssef was himself ten years old when the terrorist attacks happened,

  • growing up in an Egyptian-American family in New Jersey.

  • He often refers to the dislocation and fear he experienced at that time in his stand-up comedy and his self-titled Hulu show Rami.

  • This new series, though,

  • is his biggest attempt yet to examine a period that Youssef says we're all still grappling with in the Trump era.
