10 p.m. on SHOWTIME – Series Premiere
The creative team behind this new docu-series hope viewers can set aside the nonsense they’re used to seeing on reality shows about love and dating while watching their nine-episode weekly series, which they insist is “true documentary filmmaking.” Each episode takes the format of therapy sessions with four couples, with therapist Dr. Orna Guralnik guiding couples through a complex minefield of confrontations with each other, as well as personal epiphanies.

Whether it’s a skydiver who plummets thousands of feet when her parachutes fail to open, yet sustains only non-critical injuries, or a person in crisis who suddenly yet inexplicably performs a superhuman act to escape, their stories defy belief.
