[ad_1] Well, this is something new and exciting. Instead of getting the story exclusively from Belly’s perspective as usual, “Love Fool” is narrated by emotionally mature king Jeremiah’s internal monologue. It turns out he’s literally an angel. I mean, look at him, sitting there sorting through Susannah’s medical bills and managing her health insurance (we’re […]

‘Real Housewives of New York City’ Recap, Season 14, Ep. 3
[ad_1] I’m just waiting for there to be one episode of the reboot where the women haven’t done something that one of the classic RHONY broads already did but better. Jenna wants to skulk back to her own Hamptons house in the middle of the night? Sure, great. But if you’re not leaving a note about how […]
‘The Righteous Gemstones’ Recap, Season 3, Episode 8
[ad_1] Photo: Jake Giles Netter/HBO Danny McBride is a blunt comic instrument. Though series like Eastbound & Down, Vice Principals, and The Righteous Gemstones have plenty on their mind about particularly American strains of ambition, greed, narcissism, and toxic masculinity, McBride himself puts very little spin on the ball. You always know how a McBride character feels because he […]
Welcome to Crappie Lake’ Recap, Episode 5
[ad_1] Step aside, Frog and Toad. This week’s episode highlights the intimacy of Sonja and Luann’s friendship, which has perhaps grown stronger since they’ve been in the Benton vacuum. They get ice cream and new wigs and goof off in the animal shelter’s backyard. Sonja perseveres even though Billy Richard (RichAAAAHHD) has been texting her […]

[ad_1] Photo: Greg Lewis/Paramount+/Greg Lewis/Paramount+ Damn, this Lioness program is turning out to be a real drag for our girl Cruz, and we’re just now getting into a real episodey episode of these Special Ops — keeping the action and the plot and all the emotional beats a movin’. Cruz gets her first real round of spy […]
‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ Recap, Season 15 Episode 12
[ad_1] I told y’all an international trip would spice up this season; it took a minute, but the tail end of the Portugal vacation climaxed with plentiful disagreements, accusations, receipts, and “colluding.” It wasn’t as explosive as past vacations, but it’s impossible to enjoy RHOA with continuous comparisons to its golden era, so let’s take this nugget […]
