The Affair gets more meta in its final season
-
Season 5 of the Showtime drama revolves around Noah's novel about his affair being turned into a movie starring a high-profile actor. "The Affair seizes on this self-referential conceit to occasionally poke fun at itself and its own story structure," says Jen Chaney. ALSO: The Affair has been much as about emotional deceit as it has been about sex.
