E171: Your Honor Season 1 Recap PLUS: Breaking Bad Season 1 Rewatch
In preparation for next week's premier of Your Honor's second season. Sona and I discuss the ups and downs of the first season.
Then, I have many revelations during my very first rewatch of the firs…
E170: Fleishman Is in Trouble - Finale - The Liver PLUS: Year End Wrap Up (Part 2)
A glimmer of hope for Toby, Rachel and Libby. A new start for Seth. The series ends beautifully. Let's hope the audience starts to show up.
E169: Year End Wrap Up (Part 1) PLUS: Fleishman Is in Trouble Episode 7 AND: Reviews
After some brief movie reviews; Avatar: The Way of Water, Glass Onion (Netflix) and The Banshees of Inisherin; Sona, Celia and discuss the year in our recaps an…
E168: The White Lotus - Season 2 - Final Thoughts and Theories PLUS: Fleishman Is in Trouble Episodes 5 and 6
Sona and I have some additional thoughts on the finale and overall season of The White Lotus.
Then we catch up on the two most recent episodes of Fleishman Is in Trouble.
E167: The White Lotus Season 2 Finale Episode 7 Arrivederci
Our instant reaction to this often thrilling and occasionally funny (but possibly disappointing) final episode to the season.
E166: The Peripheral - Other Amazon Prime Recommendations PLUS: Station Eleven (HBO)
Amazon Prime can be a bit of a content hole but there are many good shows to be found there. Here are just some that fans of The Peripheral may want to sample.
E165: The White Lotus Season 2 Episode 6 Abductions PLUS:Fleishman Is in Trouble Episode 4 / Three Pines / Slow Horses Season 2
We approach the end of the season with a mostly grim episode. At least Valentina has a happy birthday after an initial setback.
I briefly review the return of the British spy series Slow Horses on A…
E164: The Peripheral Season 1 Finale Episode 8 The Creation of a Thousand Forests PLUS: Andor / Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas Special
A disappointing wrap up to the show but it does leave all those tantalizing questions open for exploration, next season, and there does seem to be a very good chance at a second season... although th…
E163: The White Lotus Season 2 Episode 5 That’s Amore PLUS: Fleischman Is in Trouble Episode 3
For whom does the bell toll? Seems like a lot of possibilities, this week. All the plots escalate. This is a moody episode as we nearly completely abandon comed…
E162: The Peripheral Episode 7 The Doodad PLUS: The English (Prime)/The Wonder (Netflix)/Atlanta (FX/Hulu)
The latest episode of the show does not give me high hope for the finale. But first I mention some incredible streaming deals for Black Friday. Andor wraps up with a strong season finale and Celia an…
E161: The White Lotus - Season 2 - Episode 4 - In the Sandbox PLUS: Fleischman Is in Trouble (HULU)
A lot of middle, here, but we are still very curious as we begin our turn toward the endgame.
Then, we discuss our very positive reaction to the first 2 episodes of Fleishman Is in Trouble on Hulu.
E160: The Peripheral - Episode 6 - F*ck You and Eat Sh*t PLUS: 1899 (Netflix) Spoilers
This may be the worst episode yet although it does tease a potentially interesting subsequent episode. So much relies on the next two episodes.
Then I review and spoil the new sci-fi series, 1899, on…
E159: The White Lotus - Season 2 - Episode 3 - Bull Elephants PLUS: Don’t Worry Darling (HBO)
Ominous tides appear in the third episode of the season but for whom remains unclear.
Everyone wants to be bad, this week, but only Cam really succeeds.
Then we discuss Olivia Wild's fascinating mis…
E158: The Peripheral - Episode 5 - What About Bob? PLUS: Andor - Season 1 Catch-up
Maybe the best episode of the season, so far. Nonetheless, we keep adding new concepts without resolving existing questions. I'm hoping that doors begin to clos…
E157: The White Lotus - Season 2 - Episode 2 - Italian Dream
Another very entertaining episode, this week. Is Greg cheating or are we misreading all of this? Does Albie really have this little game?
E156: The Peripheral - Episode 4 - Jackpot PLUS: The Good Nurse (Netflix)
Flynne's got the cramps real bad and can't quit Halloween. Conner gets to run again. Lev watched Highlander one too many times and everyone goes to the weirdest cemetery/museum ever.
E155: White Lotus - Season 2 - Episode 1 - Ciao PLUS: The Stranger (Netflix)
Sona has a much more positive initial reaction to the second season of the series than the first. I find myself actually interested in all of these characters.
Then I briefly review the excellent ne…
E154: The Peripheral - Episode 3 - Haptic Drift PLUS: Cabinet of Curiosities (Netflix)
Is that my attention starting to drift or is it just my haptics.
Plus, my suggested episode list for Netflix's Cabinet of Curiosities anthology.
Barbarian Sp…
E153: The Patient - Finale - Episode 10 - The Cantor’s Husband
It's been a bumpy ride but we made it to the end. We have some complicated feelings now that we have gotten this far.
E152: The Peripheral - Episodes 1 and 2 PLUS: House of the Dragon - Season 1 - Finale - Episode 10 - The Black Queen
Let the dance of the dragons begin...
Plus we recap and review the first two episodes of Amazon Prime's new Sci Fi show, The Peripheral
