In Episode 111, Derek Madden and Matt Kolsky are feeling healthy and fresh as they leap into:
- The NCAA Tournament (0:50) and whether March Madness is losing its luster…
- AMC’s new show McMafia (13:30) and all the ways it fails to impress…
- The Lifetime show UnREAL (16:50) and its success as a prime time soap opera and satire piece…
- The new limited series Collateral (34:20), which is available on Netflix and potentially not worth the hype it has received, though there are things to like about it…
- The season finale of Showtime’s The Chi (40:10) and how it represents a step up in show quality for the network and stands out as a great season of television…
- A wrap-up discussion on Netflix’s Love (46:25), which just dropped its final season, and is a truly excellent show…
- Homework for next week (50:10), including: the upcoming Bill Heder-starring HBO show Barry, the return of Silicon Valley, some more episodes of Sneaky Pete and Atlanta, and the new Duplass-brothers-produced documentary Wild Wild Country on Netflix, with perhaps some Billions coming down the road…
