The dialogue is rich throughout White House Plumbers, and so are the performances and characters.

The chemistry feels forced in this 8-part Paramount+ remake of the 1987 classic film. But great performances by Joshua Jackson and Lizzy Caplan might just carry you through Fatal Attraction.

David Cronenberg's 1988 movie Dead Ringers, like the book on which it was based, was all about birth, death, love and power — but mostly from the male point of view. This new six-episode Prime Video adaptation of Dead Ringers preserves all of that. But showrunner Alice Birch, who created this TV version, changes it, too, by giving its female characters all the power.
