We had a lot to say this week on the podcast, thanks to a full and at times controversial week in television. First we look at a handful of the week’s many comedies, then spend some quality time with genre (in particular a certain misbehaving Doctor), then tip our hat to some reality winners, and finally dive into some drama before spotlighting the fantastic “Plato’s Cave” from Rectify. Afterwards, Randy Dankievitch from Processed Media and SOS joins us to take a look at what has been a hugely successful first season for The Americans.
