Big Sky Season 1 Episode 4 — Patrick Gallagher and Katheryn Winnick in ‘Big Sky’ season 1 episode 4 (ABC/Darko Sikman)

ABC’s Big Sky season one episode three left off with the kidnapped women learning a cop is in on their abductions and with an injured Grace still determined to break free of her confinement. Episode four picks up with State Trooper Rick Legarski (John Carroll Lynch) driving while angry – never a smart move – as he listens to a news report on the two missing teens and the woman from the truck stop.

At home, Ronald Pergman (Brian Geraghty) watches Grace and Danielle’s mom make a tearful plea on television for their return. His mom wonders if he has something to do with the missing girls and he responds by dumping cereal on her head. She hopes there’s still more good in him than bad and warns if that ever switches – if the bad outweighs the good – she will take action.

Trooper Rick Legarski calls up Ronald, upset the missing girls are all over the news. He reveals he’s found someone to take them off their hands, but they won’t pay for the girls. It’s more like a problem-solving deal than a for-profit arrangement.

Meanwhile, Danielle Sullivan (Natalie Alyn Lind) and Jerrie Kennedy (Jesse James Keitel) gag as maggots crawl all over their Spam. Although her fellow hostages are grossed out, Grace Sullivan (Jade Pettyjohn) is hopeful the maggots will eat the dead tissues in her wound that are causing the infection and fever. As an added bonus, Grace thinks the maggots on her wound will freak out any potential buyer, making their purchase less likely.

Even if they can’t escape, they can buy some time to come up with a better plan.

Jenny Hoyt (Katheryn Winnick) continues to work on getting Sheriff Walter Tubb’s assistance in the hunt for Cody and the girls. Walter (Patrick Gallagher) explains he needs evidence before he launches an investigation into Rick Legarski’s involvement but Jenny doesn’t give up. Walter gives in and asks his assistant to invite Rick in for a chat.

Elsewhere, Cassie Dewell (Kylie Bunbury) has a heart-to-heart with her dad, Joseph. He believes the hunt for Cody and the teens has dredged up bad memories about her husband. Joseph admits he should have advised her to give herself permission to stop and grieve, rather than just keep moving forward. She confesses she might be in love with Cody.

Rick and Ronald discuss Rick’s planned meeting with Sheriff Tubb. Ronald thinks Tubb might be on to them and then admits his mom’s questioning his involvement in the kidnapping, too. Rick’s stunned Ronald’s mom asked about the missing girls, but Ronald’s sure his mother doesn’t actually believe he’s involved.

Rick and Ronald’s partnership is on the rocks. Ronald assures the dirty cop that if he disappears a trail will lead them to his doorstep. Rick apparently has the same thing set up and has records to back up Ronald’s involvement. They’re stuck in this partnership, even if they distrust each other.

Over at the detective agency, Cassie’s examining footage from the truck stop. She sees Jerrie’s last moments on camera and is sure a trucker is involved. She’s also certain Legarski’s involved and is working with the trucker.

Jenny arrives with news that Legarski’s meeting with Tubb that afternoon. Cassie and Jenny plan on placing a tracker on Legarski’s vehicle, and assistant Denise Brisbane (Dedee Pfeiffer) reminds them they’ll lose their license if it’s discovered.

Ronald visits the girls and Danielle and Jerrie claim Grace is dying. Grace is in horrible shape and Ronald’s shocked to see maggots have infested her wounds. After warning the women he has his taser, he pours hydrogen peroxide on Grace’s wound. She screams in pain and he gives her pills to help battle the infection.

Danielle pleads with Ronald for help, telling him she knows he has a good heart. That doesn’t work and instead of winning him over, Ronald threatens to kill the next person who says anything about a good heart.

Grace vomits and Ronald backs away, leaving Danielle and Jerrie screaming about Grace’s deteriorating condition.

Trooper Rick Legarski shows up for the meeting and informs Sheriff Walter Tubb he only saw Cody Hoyt for a few minutes. Cody was sure the Church had something to do with the teens’ disappearance, and he let him go off on his own to pursue that area of investigation. Rick tries to steer the conversation away from the topic at hand, and Walter reins him in.

Rick’s easily angered at this point and claims Walter’s only brought him in because Cassie – a Black woman – requested it. Rick makes this a race issue and Walter doesn’t correct him that it was Jenny Hoyt who asked for this meeting. Rick thinks Cassie’s trying to “cancel” him and plays the victim, claiming this is all about it being “open season on the badge.”

Walter Tubb doesn’t say much during the meeting, choosing instead to let Rick rant.

Seconds after Cassie and Jenny stick a tracker on Rick’s vehicle, he approaches with Walter Tubb. He confronts Cassie, sure she’s the one who filed a complaint against him. Jenny introduces herself as Cody’s wife and shakes his hand. Rick, pretending to be concerned, asks if she’s heard from Cody and she reveals she knows Cody was last seen in his presence.

Ronald pays a visit to Rick’s wife’s quilting shop. He doesn’t introduce himself as he selects a quilt. As Merilee (Brooke Smith) is wrapping it up, he stares at her long enough for her to become uncomfortable. He claims it’s because she’s so beautiful and she in turn wonders why he’s flattering her. He continues with the compliments, revealing he believes she’s kind and sad. Ronald wonders if she’s ever gone to the Willis House taxi dances. He explains he dances there for money, but he feels a connection and wouldn’t charge her if she showed up.

By the time he leaves her shop, Ronald’s piqued Merilee’s interest.

Next, Ronald meets with Rick and explains Grace is in bad shape and needs stronger medication. Rick agrees to head out and see what he can do. Before he leaves, the impact of what he’s done appears to get the better of him. Rick’s having a tough time dealing with the fact he killed two people and that the teens are all over the news.

Ronald reminds him it will all be taken care of when the Canadians show up tomorrow to get the girls.

Back at the detective agency, Jenny’s discovered a trucker with a record who fits their profile. (It’s not Ronald.) She’s looked up his schedule and realizes he’ll be at the truck stop that very evening. If Grace and Danielle were in his truck, there would still be DNA there.

Jenny wants to go undercover as a prostitute, but Denise thinks it’s too dangerous. As they argue, they notice the tracker in Rick’s vehicle shows he’s on the move. Jenny tells Denise to keep an eye on Rick while she and Cassie head to the truck stop.

Grace’s condition is worsening and her fever’s spiked. Rick shows up as Jerrie and Danielle are comforting Grace, and he’s not in the least bit remorseful about Grace’s condition. He claims he got into this to help the youth of America and confirms they were accidentally caught up in this.

Rick injects an antibiotic into Grace’s leg and then takes off.

Cassie slips into her memories of Cody (Ryan Phillippe), recalling a romantic camping trip complete with roasting marshmallows and singing. She snaps back to reality and prepares to leave for the truck stop. Another heart-to-heart with her dad reveals her state of mind. She wonders if she’s filling her son’s life with optimism and isn’t preparing him for the real world. (She lost her mom as a kid and her husband was killed in Afghanistan.) Cassie becomes emotional and asks how her dad handled life after her mom’s death and he confesses he went on because of her – just like she’ll go on because of her young son.

Surprise, surprise…Merilee shows up at Willis House, spots Ronald dancing with an elderly woman, and abruptly exits. Ronald chases after her, stopping her in the parking lot and introducing himself as Mitchell. He asks her not to leave and instead come inside for a dance. He promises he’s not looking for anything other than a little company.

Ronald’s able to talk Merilee into returning to the dance. They flirt and Ronald assures her she’s safe with him.

Cassie and Jenny arrive at the truck stop, and Cassie parks close enough to keep an eye on Jenny. Jenny’s totally slipped into her prostitute cover and gets wolf whistles as she walks among the truckers. She’s really strutting and working it, and finally spots the trucker she’s after. She compliments his rig and he welcomes her in.

The trucker requests she clean herself with sanitizer before they do anything, claiming he’s germophobic. He even makes her gargle!

Jenny pulls out a badge, says she’s an undercover cop, and promises she’s not busting him. She claims to be taking DNA samples from all the trucks, but the trucker has decided she’s not a cop and isn’t falling for this ruse. Jenny’s able to grab a pillow before hustling out of the truck.

The trucker follows and grabs her, refusing to let go. He has a knife and demands she give him back his stuff. He’s ready to cut her if she doesn’t and Jenny’s had enough. She delivers a quick beating that sends him crashing to the ground. Cassie races up as the trucker pulls a gun. Fortunately, she’s able to de-escalate the situation.

Cassie and Jenny wind up back in Sheriff Tubb’s office after the confrontation. Tubb confirms the trucker was on probation and because he had a gun, he’ll be locked up. He’s not pleased with their undercover work and is of a mind to lock them up. He doesn’t but warns he won’t be so easy on them next time they’re in trouble.

Denise meets up with Jenny and Cassie outside Tubb’s office and delivers the news that Rick Legarski spent time at what’s either an abandoned farmhouse or an old homestead. It was in the middle of nowhere about an hour from the bar and he was there for about half an hour.

Ronald and Rick check in with each other. The pickup’s set for the following day at 3pm and they’ll need to clean up the girls before their Canadian connection arrives.

Merilee returns home around midnight and Rick can’t believe she was out dancing. She explains it was just dancing and she’s not having an affair. Rick’s stunned into silence.

Cassie and Jenny waste no time in arriving at the abandoned farmhouse. It’s pitch black and the wind’s whistling as they pull up to the barn. They agree to stick together and have each other’s backs as they begin their search.

Cassie snaps photos with her phone as they approach the barn. There’s equipment inside and they accidentally break a few things as they look around. Cassie points out there aren’t any exterior windows as they explore the building.

Down below the girls are awakened by the noise.

Cassie and Jenny don’t spot any obvious hiding places, but Cassie senses they’re close. “It’s like I’ve solved a math problem, but I can’t show my work,” says Cassie.

The girls figure out someone’s there and scream for help. Cassie bends down and listens, but Jenny’s impatient to keep looking. Cassie thought she heard something but follows Jenny out of the barn. Down below Grace, Danielle, and Jerrie continue to scream as loud as they can.

The episode ends with Rick Legarski climbing the stairs and heading to his bedroom while clutching a hammer.

For All Mankind Season 2 — Joel Kinnaman, Wrenn Schmidt, John Marshall Jones and Jodi Balfour in “For All Mankind,” premiering globally February 19, 2021 on Apple TV+.

Season two of Apple TV+’s drama For All Mankind isn’t set to premiere until February 19, 2021. With the new season still months away, the streaming service just announced they’re moving forward on season three.

Season one debuted on November 1, 2019 and starred Joel Kinnaman, Michael Dorman, Sarah Jones, Shantel VanSanten, Wrenn Schmidt, Jodi Balfour, Krys Marshall, and Sonya Walger. Joining the series for the 10-episode second season are:

Cynthy Wu (Before I Fall) as Kelly, an astronaut’s daughter.
Coral Peña (Chemical Hearts) as adult Aleida Rosales, who we met in season one.
Casey W. Johnson (GLOW) as Danny Stevens, the son of astronauts Gordo (Dorman) and Tracy (Jones).

For All Mankind was created by Emmy Award winner Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica), Emmy Award nominee Ben Nedivi, and Emmy Award nominee Matt Wolpert. Moore, Nedivi, and Wolpert serve as executive producers with Golden Globe nominee Maril Davis.

For All Mankind Description, Courtesy of Apple TV+:

For All Mankind explores what would have happened if the global space race had never ended. The series presents an aspirational world where NASA astronauts, engineers and their families find themselves in the center of extraordinary events seen through the prism of an alternate history timeline – a world in which the USSR beats the US to the moon.

Season two of the space drama picks up a decade later in 1983. It’s the height of the Cold War and tensions between the United States and the USSR are at their peak. Ronald Reagan is president and the greater ambitions of science and space exploration are at threat of being squandered as the US and Soviets go head-to-head to control sites rich in resources on the moon. The Department of Defense has moved into Mission Control, and the militarization of NASA becomes central to several characters’ stories: some fight it, some use it as an opportunity to advance their own interests, and some find themselves at the height of a conflict that may lead to nuclear war.

Feel Good Series — Mae Martin and Charlotte Ritchie in ‘Feel Good’ (Photo Courtesy of Netflix)

Feel Good, the semi-autobiographical dramedy from Mae Martin and Joe Hampson, will be returning for a second and final season. Netflix just confirmed the new season and announced they’re targeting a 2021 premiere.

Mae Martin, Charlotte Ritchie, Lisa Kudrow, Philip Burgers, and Adrian Lukis are set to return for the final season. Anthony Head, Jordan Stephens, John Ross Bowie, Eleanor Matsuura, and Eve join the cast for season two.

The series is an Objective Fiction production, with Martin, Hampson, Charlotte Lewis, and Kelly McGolpin producing.

“I’m beyond excited to be able to return to the world of Feel Good, and to see Mae and George’s love story through to the dramatic conclusion we had always planned,” said star/series creator Mae Martin. “I’m really deeply attached to this story and I’m so grateful to be getting back to work with the incredible team at Objective Fiction and our hilarious cast. Having spent most of 2020 speaking only to my kettle and my television as I watched the world burn on the internet, I’m euphoric to be around other human beings again. Seeing Joe Hampson’s and my dumb jokes come to life is heaven. Thank you, Netflix!”

Season one debuted in March 2020 and was a co-production with Channel 4. The final season is exclusively a Netflix series.

Filming is currently underway in London.

Netflix offered the following description of the series and season two :

“Feel Good stars Mae Martin as Mae, a rising talent on the stand-up circuit and recovering addict whose addictive behaviors and intense romanticism dominate every single part of her life. When she meets pragmatic – but so far heterosexual – George (Charlotte Ritchie) she’s smitten, and much to her surprise George feels the same.

They embark on an intoxicating romance as Mae juggles relationships with her parents, fellow addicts in a drugs support group, her colleagues at the local stand up club, and most importantly tries to transform her relationship with George from an addictive one to a healthy one. But the real question is can Mae replace a toxic addiction to love with love itself. Feel Good is a deeply personal, dark but hilarious story about two young people navigating the modern-day landscape of love, addiction, and sexuality – and trying to form a meaningful and lasting connection.

Mae & George’s complicated love story continues [in season two] as Mae struggles to come to terms with the ghosts from her past and George tries to reinvent her present. Can they grow together or will they grow apart?”

Also, Higgins has her first date with Dr. Ethan Shah.

Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:

Magnum P.I. is a modern take on the classic series centering on Thomas Magnum, a decorated former Navy SEAL who, upon returning home from Afghanistan, repurposes his military skills to become a private investigator. A charming rogue, an American hero and a die-hard Detroit Tigers fan, Magnum lives in a guest cottage on Robin’s Nest, the luxurious estate where he works as a security consultant to supplement his P.I. business. The “majordomo” of the property is Juliet Higgins, a beautiful and commanding disavowed MI:6 agent whose second job is to keep Magnum in line, with the help of her two Dobermans.

When Magnum needs back-up on a job, he turns to his trusted buddies and fellow POW survivors, Theodore “TC” Calvin, a former Marine chopper pilot who runs Island Hoppers, a helicopter tour business, and Orville “Rick” Wright, a former Marine door-gunner-turned-impresario of Oahu’s coolest nightclub and the most connected man on the island.

Suspicious of Magnum’s casual attitude and presence at his crime scenes, Detective Gordon Katsumoto finds that he and Magnum are more alike than either of them care to admit. One of Magnum’s biggest supporters is Teuila “Kumu” Tuileta, the unofficial “House Mom” and cultural curator of Robin’s Nest. With keys to a vintage Ferrari in one hand, aviator sunglasses in the other, and an Old Düsseldorf longneck chilling in the fridge, Thomas Magnum is back on the case!
