What would you do if you found out your husband was a spy? That's what Helen Tasker, played by Ginger Gonzaga, navigates in this new, hilarious TV show.
If the last few years have proved anything, it's that thrillers and mystery shows and movies, like Glass Onion or The Watcher, are all the rage - but the trend isn't exactly new.
The 1994 film True Lies, which stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis as Harry and Helen Tasker, is a thrilling flick directed by James Cameron (Titanic) about a couple who has to save their marriage in the midst of kidnapping and espionage. The brand new show based on the movie follows a similar path, except in the show, Helen has to become a spy along with her husband for US intelligence agency Omega Sector, working on missions around the globe.
In the new True Lies show, Harry and Helen are played by the dashingly handsome Steve Howey (Shameless) and Ginger Gonzaga, respectively.
If you're interested in watching the new CBS show but are worried about being too late to the game - no need to fear. Only five episodes have been released so far, and they're all easily accessible on multiple streaming platforms.
How to watch True Lies
For those who have cable subscriptions, True Lies releases new episodes every Wednesday night on CBS, with the season 1 finale set to air on May 13, 2023. If you have on-demand with your cable TV package, you can also stream the episodes that have already been released there.
If cable isn't available to you, no worries - Paramount+ has the episodes available to stream as they release on CBS, so you can catch up on all of the Omega Sector drama as it unfolds with the rest of the True Lies fans.
Don't worry though, if you don't have cable OR Paramount+, there are other options available for how to stream. PlutoTV and fuboTV both offer free streaming options on their streaming platforms - the only difference is that you might catch some sneaky ads.
You also can stream the show if you have premium subscriptions to YouTubeTV or Hulu.
Turns out, if you start watching, you'll be joining what happens to be a pretty large fan base.
