Last week, Reed (Stephen Moyer) negotiated with his captors, promising to lead them to the Mutant Underground in exchange for protecting his family. Meanwhile, Polaris (Emma Dumont, pictured) is about to be on the loose, and arguing her terms in a much more powerful way.

It’s an easy sell, and now even more so, to depict Hollywood as one big, soulless, immoral den of iniquity...

Let’s assume Jamie Foxx didn’t go to the trouble of creating the entire new Showtime series White Famous so he could give himself an amusingly graphic sex scene in the opening episode...

TV’s baddest rom-com, Good Behavior, returns Sunday with our principals, if possible, more schizophrenic than ever...

If you really, really, really don’t need one more TV show to occupy more of your life, don’t start watching the murder mystery Acceptable Risk, because once you do, it’s devilishly hard to stop...

In tonight’s episode of The Deuce, new business propositions abound. Vincent has a proposition for the Times Square pimps, offering to house their women in indoor parlors not rousted by police. The pimps want to know how much Frankie will pay for their cooperation, and Frankie introduces the idea of the new economy: the pimps are expected to pay.

Last week upped the body count on Ray Donovan, with at least three corpses, by my count, revealed in the episode’s final moments.

TCM’s Sunday tribute to Dracula movies continues, and tonight it includes an unusual addition to the Hammer horror film franchise from England. Peter Cushing, who appears in several Hammer films as vampire hunter Doctor Van Helsing, is a star of 1960’s The Brides of Dracula, which TCM televises tonight at 9:45 ET. But his co-star, this time, isn’t the famous Hammer Dracula as embodied by Christopher Lee. It’s David Peel, in his penultimate role before retiring from the in

This series has returned without missing a single comedic step. The cast is sharp, David’s plots and observations are as original as always, and the directors of these early episodes, including David Steinberg, have brought Larry David and his antics back in perfect form. Tonight, in an episode called “A Disturbance in the Kitchen,” Larry continues to don his anti-fatwa disguise – but there’s no disguising how hilarious this show continues to be.
