I mean, of course they would, right? I’m calling them with 30 seconds to come up with an answer that could win me a silly amount of money. Even if they were 100% confident in their answer, they could just have a quick check to make sure they’re absolutely right, surely? Читать дальше...

The cast of Succession

If you’re missing the fasted-paced, back-stabbing nastiness that was Succession, a new political satire has just arrived on Netflix that might just fill that void.
