No TV gang was as bluntly honest as Jerry Seinfeld and his group of miscreants — to the point of being cruel if need be. George's (Jason Alexander) girlfriend, Audrey (Susan Diol) becomes the latest casualty of their collective rudeness in "The Nose Job." George has already noticed it and thinks she's generally perfect otherwise, but Kramer (Michael Richards) is the only one honest enough to make a comment about the size of Audrey's nose aloud. While also declaring her beautiful, he tells her to get a nose job. Once it's out in the air, it's all George can see — his girlfriend's enormous schnozz.

It's a hard-knock life on the crabbing boats that populate "Deadliest Catch," and the show rarely shies away from that ugliness. When someone gets sick — such as when Sig Hansen had his heart attack, Phil Harris endured his fatal stroke, or when Norman Hansen suffered a seizure while onboard the Northwestern — it is documented on camera. When major injuries take place, they too end up on viewers' screens, no matter how bloody or dire the matter may be, unless the captains or deckhands in question request the matter not be broadcast. Some crew members have

"Family Matters" seems like a happy-go-lucky series in which the grayest cloud on the horizon arrives in the form of the perpetually annoying and recently resurrected Steve Urkel (Jaleel White). But TikTok creator @ConfusedBreakfast has a bleak theory about Carl Winslow (Reginald VelJohnson) that creates an ever-branching reality involving multiple franchises.

Thursday brought a great sea change to the "Big Brother" house when Tucker was finally voted out of the domicile despite being Head of House just two weeks before. That knocks the number of occupants down to 10, but that doesn't mean the drama's gotten weaker, even though the bombshell-providing Tucker is no more.

There's nothing sweeter than a family that gets along and actively adores one another, and it looks like Ed Begley Jr.'s brood is among that auspicious number.

Netflix has become a repository for a surprisingly large number of erotic films over the years. Whether they're originals like "Fair Play" or imported from another country like the "365 Days" trilogy or "Burning Betrayal," they're eye-opening, thrilling, heart-pounding outings in which sex, love, and lust collide. Well, at least most of the time — sometimes, they're tales of just plain lust, acted out on any convenient counter, shower, couch or bed across the world. If it's creative, tension-filled or romantic, then Netflix likely has it ready to be viewed.

In an era where R-rated movies like "Police Academy," "Rambo," and "The Toxic Avenger" received kid-friendly Saturday morning TV adaptations, it's probably not shocking that some original properties that took wing during Nickelodeon's early days were adventuresome too. While shows like "Rugrats" and "Doug" appealed to audiences of all ages, "Rocco's Modern Life" called out to an older audience — and then there was the fearlessly gross and wild "The Ren & Stimpy Show," which lacked anything resembling a moral center, let alone an adult on the playing field. It definitely felt directed at teenagers, but it became wildly popular among kids and adults alike from its very first airing in 1991. This was despite how the show's content was frequently inappropriate for children.

Even though it has a legacy as a strongly feminist series, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" still has an episode that was so problematic that it affected the mental health of some its cast members. Actor James Marsters, who played Spike on the show, entered therapy after enacting the infamous Spike and Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) near-rape scene from "Seeing Red."
