Summary
In this episode of Decoding TV, Patrick Klepek and David Chen discuss the first episode of The Curse on Paramount+/Showtime. We’ll be covering this show weekly through January 2024 and we hope you’ll have a chance to join us for it!
This show features a core trio of incredible talent (Benny Safdie, Nathan Fielder, and Emma Stone). How did we feel their skills were applied in this episode? Where is the show most insightful and where is it taking cheap shots? How painful of an experience did we find watching this episode to be? Why should you not play audio of this show near where your kids are hanging out? And do we have any idea of where this show is going? Listen to hear us discuss all these questions and more!
Stay tuned for more announcements of what we’ll be covering right here on Decoding TV.
