There’s a lot going on in the world right now, and the on-going worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter and against police brutality and racism, as well as the continuing threat of COVID-19, are impacting every corner of American life, even down to TV. We start the podcast this episode with a lengthy news segment, catching up with recent industry developments. Then we head to our week in TV, including Oprah’s Where Do We Go From Here?, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver’s potent policing episode, the finales of The Last O.G. and What We Do in the Shadows, the premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, and new episodes of Stargirl and Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD. Then we head to the spotlight section to sing the praises of Netflix’s Gentefied, which dropped its terrific first season back in February and has flown far too under the radar. Listen for our thoughts, then reach out with your take on Gentefied, and any other series we may have missed this year.
