Another week of American Horror Story: Cult, another round of political insanity. In the September 26 episode, titled "11/9," we flash back to election day 2016 and the days surrounding it. The main thread of this week's episode is the idea that Donald Trump supporters like sexual assault and go around committing it all over the place by grabbing random women by the you-know-what.

You're The Worst, a show that centers on two self-centered, self-destructive people in a relationship, got political in the latest episode, addressing feminism and double standards for political affiliations.

Even some of his colleagues at CNN view Jim Acosta as a liberal cheerleader. That’s the conclusion in a new Politico Magazine profile piece. The September 21 story featured this anonymous quote from a “senior person” at CNN: “There’s some grumbling in the rank-and-file that this isn’t straight news.” 

South Park stepped it up with their second episode of the season, "Put it Down," which took on the President Trump's penchant for posting controversial tweets. The students of South Park Elementary School in Colorado are feeling nervous about a few things in this week's episode - including the looming threat of North Korea, distracted driving, and suicide - and the president's tweets are ever-…

In its penultimate episode on September 13, The Sinner crossed the line again with a scene in which teen sisters Cora (Jessica Biel) and Phoebe (Nadia Alexander) kiss each other and Frankie (Eric Todd). Frankie and Phoebe then have sex on the couch while Jessica Biel gets intimate with her boyfriend J.D. (Jacob Pitts) and another man on the floor in the same room. From the series that brought us…

If you were looking for a liberal's thoughts on Donald Trump's immigration policy strung together with a plot, the September 12 episode of American Horror Story: Cult is just the show for you. If, however, you were looking for an entertaining horror story that won't preach at you for an hour, I'm afraid you're fresh out of luck. The episode "Don't be Afraid of the Dark" featured the show's main…

The journalists on MSNBC and CNN on Tuesday continued to be annoyed that Donald Trump hasn’t connected Hurricanes Harvey and Irma to global warming. MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle offered a snide aside in a story on Pope Francis: “ In the wake of Hurricane Irma, Pope Francis is criticizing climate change deniers.” 

Until this week, The Sinner was a wonderful break from the regular agenda-driven television that overwhelms all other options. With the September 6 episode, Part VI, they broke their streak, when the main character Cora (Jessica Biel) demonstrates what her boyfriend does to her on her younger sister Phoebe (Augie Murphy).

We have learned about the fears held by Ximena (Lisseth Chavez) this season as her illegal immigrant parents face their fear of potential deportation.

The writers of the show must be extra excited that President Trump just today announced his intention to…

American Horror Story: Cult premiered on FX September 5 with an episode rife with social justice themes and worn-out tropes about conservative racism. Throughout the episode, we are not-so-subtly reminded that liberals are the good guys, the tolerant ones, the kind and conservatives are hateful, bigoted, and conscienceless. The show sets up a classic good vs. evil, and the Trump supporters are…

The Fosters loves to push teenage sexual activity, all things LGBT and the liberal agenda, so it came as no surprise that the relationship between sixteen-year-old high school student Callie and her college-age transgender "boyfriend" Aaron has been "consummated" before Callie heads to a college protest in the August 29th episode of Freeform’s The Fosters.

The second season of Showtime’s Dice opened Sunday, August 20th with the episode titled “It’s a Miserable Life.” As you might gather from the title, this episode is a parody of the classic movie, It’s a Wonderful Life. Comedian Andrew Dice Clay dreams of what life would be like for him and those near and dear to him if he had not created his stage persona The Diceman.

Do you remember when TBS was a nice, family-friendly channel? Not anymore. Last week, on premiere week of “The Guest Book,” Story Two depicted Christians assaulting a woman to force her into baptism and, on the August 10 episode of “The Guest Book” Story Three, they attacked conservatives and pro-lifers, portraying them as both liars and hypocrites.
