The Gallaghers are back for the eighth season of the family drama, and they suddenly have a lot of money to burn after Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) sells their inheritance from Monica (Chloe Webb). It's a new beginning for several family members, including Fiona (Emmy Rossum), who swears off random romantic encounters; Lip (Jeremy Allen White), who has to sacrifice to maintain his sobriety; and Frank (William H. Macy), who comes out of a drug-induced fog and attempts to make amends for decades of disappointment.

The new supernatural comedy has been a fun diversion, propelled by the chemistry between the main cast. In tonight's episode, Max (Adam Scott) and Leroy (Craig Robinson) go undercover to investigate a bizarre incident at a swanky country club. They're joined  by Annie (Amber Stevens West), who went to her fair share of country clubs in her youth. But this mission puts Max and Leroy at odds when they get overly invested in their cover personas. 
Curb Your Enthusiasm
HBO, 10 ET/PT
Larry (Larry David) comes up with what he thinks is a brilliant plan to get his friends out of relationship problems. It doesn't work quite the way he hopes, and he upsets Funkhouser's (Bob Einstein) new girlfriend.

Monaco Grand Prix qualifying: Daniel Ricciardo on pole for Red Bull

Monaco Grand Prix qualifying: Daniel Ricciardo on pole for Red Bull Daniel Ricciardo claimed pole position for the Monaco Grand Prix after Red Bull Formula 1 team-mate Max Verstappen missed qualifying thanks to his practice crash. Ricciardo topped the first two stages of qualifying, with Verstappen unable even to take to the track thanks to damage sustained in a morning accident at the second part of Swimming Pool that forced a gearbox change, before banging in a 1m10.810s on his first run in Q3 to take top spot. Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton briefly threatened Ricciardo's position with the fastest first sector time of qualifying on his final flier, but lost pace later in the lap and ended up third behind Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel. Ricciardo, meanwhile, looked set to improve, but dropped time in the final sector and ended up posting a lap 0.036 seconds slower than his first attempt. This is only Ricciardo's second pole position in F1, coming two years afte

But beyond the pageantry and royal stagecraft at which the British excel, there is a genuine story about a changing Britain, a complicated American family, a resilient monarchy and the redemption of a wayward prince.

Instead, much of the focus has been on his unconventional choice in a bride: a biracial, divorced American TV actress. For years, Harry dated from the usual pool of upper-class women. "These girls were always the same," said Kate Williams, a profes
