'The Curse' is a dark satire on home improvement TV. Here's how to watch

Anna Kaplan

Fans of Nathan Fielder, rejoice: The actor and comedian is back on screen with his latest series, "The Curse."

The first season is coming to an end this weekend, with the deeply unsettling finale episode becoming available to stream on Paramount+ on Jan. 12, as well as premiering on Showtime on Jan. 14 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

"The Curse" stars Fielder — known for his uncomfortably funny shows like "Nathan for You" and "The Rehearsal" where he makes bold, deadpan and shocking statements — plus Academy Award-winning actor Emma Stone and Benny Safdie, one-half of the brother duo behind "Uncut Gems" and "Good Time."

The hilarious and bizarre show follows Asher and Whitney Siegel (Fielder and Stone), a newlywed couple starring in a home improvement show where they are working to spread the message about their environmentally sustainable homes in the Española, New Mexico, community.

The couple's producer Dougie Schecter (Safdie) immediately starts to spot and become obsessed with the cracks in the couple's marriage, which intensify as they grapple with the ethics behind their home improvement work, and the theatrics of their HGTV show.

In a strange twist during a staged moment for their show, a small child says she cursed Asher, leading the couple to battle this mysterious curse as they get their show — and their marriage — up and running.

Keep reading to find out how to watch Fielder's freaky satirical take on home-flipping reality TV shows.
