We’re currently five episodes into season 1 of “Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage,” taking a short break now makes it an ideal moment to join in with Paramount+ subscription if you haven’t already.

In the heyday of television’s rapid expansion, the subtle art of the political thriller seemed to vanish. Its comeback, however, has seen it evolve into a more fast-paced, easily consumable format with action sequences every 20 minutes. Yet, Michael Fassbender’s upcoming Showtime series, The Agency, appears poised to take us back to something reminiscent of shows like Homeland or The Americans. These shows skillfully utilized the surge in crime procedural popularity to dial down the pace a bit. They delved into the undercurrents of political unrest that were prevalent in early 2010s America, where the image of the ideal family or secure state seemed increasingly elusive. As a movie reviewer, I’m eagerly anticipating this return to more thoughtful, nuanced storytelling.

The love triangle is now complete.

Over the course of 240 years, Pierre Choderlos de Laclos’ controversial novel “Les Liaisons Dangereuses”, published in 1782, has been reimagined approximately 30 times for stage plays, radio broadcasts, and film productions across five continents. However, Roger Kumble’s version of the story, titled “Cruel Intentions”, is widely recognized as one of its most captivating adaptations by many.
