Now that Mary & George has set the scene for Mary Villiers’ loathsome exploits in its dastardly premiere, the show can start getting truly down and dirty, coating itself in the muck of royal revelry. In the limited series’ second episode, Julianne Moore’s Mary is coaxing the favor of not just King James I for her son George (Nicholas Galitzine), …

One of our beloved Abbott Elementary teachers may be leaving the school for good. After accepting a fellowship with the district at the beginning of the year, in this week’s episode, Janine (Quinta Brunson) is offered a full-time, permanent position working under the superintendent (Keegan Michael-Key). Sure, she’d be allowed to still visit Abbott—but really, the elementary school wouldn’t be …

Ariana Madix’s life may seem better than ever, but it’s become abundantly clear she’s still reeling from the Scandoval, and struggling to process it all. After weeks of stonewalling, Ariana finally snapped at not just Tom Sandoval, but the entire cast this week, releasing the anger and resentment she’s built up in the wake of her new reality. Even though …

For one, I get to tune out of those “best television shows of all time” conversations that people have at parties whenever they get to the Walter White of it all, and instead, ponder whether I’m responsible enough to invest in a large plant. Other times, I …

The best time travel TV show right now is on Hallmark. That may sound shocking to everyone who only associates the Crown Media network with schmaltzy Christmas movies and the romantic adventures of small-town amateur detectives. However, The Way Home is breaking the Hallmark mold and bringing in new viewers at the same time. The series centers on the women …

The first thing you need to know about A Gentleman in Moscow is that its titular Moscow-based gentleman, played by Ewan McGregor, goes by several names. His full title is officially “Count Alexander Rostov.” Occasionally, he’s called “the Count.” Sometimes, he’s just called “Alexander.” And, in the premiere of the Showtime adaptation based on Amor Towles’ novel of the same …

If you’ve, somehow, spent this season of Vanderpump Rules thinking Tom Sandoval’s being handed a golden edit, Bravo’s here this week to hit you over the head with a reminder he’s a doofus. The resident sulker is handed opportunity after opportunity to re-enter the fray with his castmates this week, but alas, his pride is just too strong, further damaging …
