| Margo's Got Money Troubles |
Fucking diabolical! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, May 20!
Our Top Pick tonight is the season finale of Margo's Got Money Troubles (Apple TV, midnight). This exceptional series follow the aspiring writer Margo (Elle Fanning), who drops out of college after her professor knocks her up. Her mom is Michelle Pfeiffer, who's dating pastor Greg Kinnear, and estranged dad is Nick Offerman. While early marketing pegged it as a show about doing OnlyFans, which Margo turns to for money, it is about so much more, too. This one deserves some Emmy noms love. And Margo will return for season 2!
Elsewhere, The Boys are leaving town, Stephen Colbert takes his questionaire, Kylie Minogue gets docuseries treatment, there is sole Survivor, Widow's Bay has a curfew, Jack Ryan does a movie, The Oval still exists, and Tatiana Maslany guarantees us Pleasure.
