Kate’s on location once again, so it’s another truncated podcast this week. After a brief discussion of Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop casting announcements, Noel and Kate kick things off with their week in TV. Veep is back for its final season, black-ish still has a Dre problem, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is riding high heading into its series finale, and Fresh Off the Boat gets in on the musical fun. Then there’s the dramatic final episodes of Terrace House: Opening New Doors, an Olympic-themed RuPaul’s Drag Race, wrestling-centered episodes of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and, in its midseason premiere, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, and a statuary-centered Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. Afterward, we move to the spotlight section, diving in with season one of Amazon Prime’s adaptation of the teen assassin movie Hanna.

I wonder why David Farr is in charge of adapting Hanna, since Seth Lochhead wrote the original script and the distinctive things about the film people remember are mostly from Joe Wright.
