‘The Curse’ Recap, Episode 8: Down and Dirty

[ad_1] The Curse Down and Dirty Season 1 Episode 8 Editor’s Rating 4 stars **** Photo: Anna Kooris/A24/Paramount+ with SHOWTIME I hate when characters sing loudly (and/or eat ice cream) in the car. Remember Dawson’s dad, Mitch Leery?

‘For All Mankind’ Recap, Season 4 Episode 8: ‘Legacy’

[ad_1] For All Mankind’s antepenultimate episode of the season features chess pieces moving into place: on both Mars and Earth, teams are preparing for the asteroid capture mission, and on each planet, secret teams are working on unsanctioned missions of their own.

Legacy of Monsters’ Recap, Season 1 Episode 8

‘Fargo’ Recap, Season 5 Episode 7: ‘Linda’

[ad_1] Fargo Linda Season 5 Episode 7 Editor’s Rating 4 stars **** Photo: Michelle Faye/FX Much of “Linda” only makes sense in retrospect, including a song on its soundtrack.
