‘The New Pope’ Offers New Sex and Church-Bashing Scenes
Culture
After everything we’ve seen from The Young Pope, the only way HBO’s follow-up The New Pope would stand out is if it tried to be reverent. Unfortunately, even after two episodes, it’s clear that we’re just going back to the same pattern of being obscene and insulting the Church.

That is why it was surprising to see the show spotlight the heartbeat of an unborn child in this week’s episode…
