Pil-gwang faces off with So-mun twice. Jeok-bong learns to follow his nose. 

Yeon-jin finds Dong-eun's allies and attempts to fight back. Hye-jeong and Jae-jun learn more about what happened to Myeong-oh. 

Maggie's true motive comes to light as does Negan's connection to Ginny's father. 

The Counters are back and this time they're facing evil spirits with powers that rival their own. 

In part one of Netflix's The Glory (episodes 1-8), Moon Dong-eun begins her revenge against the bullies who tormented her in high school.

Enjoy this one-time free access to our premium coverage of Bungo Stray Dogs. To hear us cover the entire show, you can sign up on Patreon.

Character inconsistencies abound! But, as usual, time spent with The Crows is fun as hell.   

I'm back with another ProFan interview! This time, Tamela and I discuss meeting for the first time at a BTS concert, indie music, and her special connection to a Harry Potter character.   

Only took a year and a cross-country move but we finally made it to Ted Lasso! We talk about our feelings on the series overall and read your feedback as we break down the events in the season three premiere. Enjoy this sneak peek at our premium coverage of Ted Lasso.

Here's a free listen to our premium coverage of Yellowjackets season 2:  Shauna and Jeff remain (toxic) couple goals despite being terrible at destroying evidence. How you gonna leave bodily fluids at a crime scene?   

We're back to discuss all things Darkling (including chittering chitterings), Grishas, Crows (and definitely not vampires), and some girl named Alina.

In a new series, Nina will be interviewing some of the fans of our podcast. First up, Momo talks about her experiences growing up in Boston, working as a 911 operator, and her passion for crafting. 

We had some unexpected feelings about how this wrapped up, but it was overall enjoyable experience. Such a well-written anime. 

Slowly getting back into the swing of things. Thanks for your patience.  This show is simply great. So much heart, great story, and a lot of action. Ouken is terrifying, but am I the only one hoping his brother will be able to cure him?   

We've made the first episode of The Mandalorian S3 premium podcast available for free.  Papa Pedro and Baby Grogu are back! We really enjoyed this first episode. I'd forgotten how much fun this show can be and how beautifully it's shot. 

Are... are we supposed to feel sorry for Miranjo now? Cause I kinda do. How is this show so good? They're developing the hell out of all of these characters. Can't wait to see what's up with Kage's new form.  

For as wild as this show got -- and it was wilin'-- this ending was surprisingly tame and to the point. Comeuppance was had and justice was served. Of course, we had to visit the afterlife first, but you know... wilin'.   

Hee-sung woke up from a coma playing chess while Hyeon-su playing Parcheesi. Embarrassing. 

Before we discuss The Last of Us S1E6 "Kin" for our Patreon subscribers, we shoot the shit about what's going on in our lives, shows we're watching, and that The Flash trailer.

Between Hae-su (the sister) and the maid, I don't know who was trying to die harder. But one succeeded.   

Human trafficking? How we get here? Ji-won is a hot-ass mess who can't make up her mind and now she's about to lose her damn job. 

Sure Ji-won feels betrayed, but at this point she's just being cruel. Either turn his ass in or come clean. Watching this man have a full-on panic attack listening to his dead mother hum a lullaby is just too much! 

A few things I think we forgot to mention:  1. Arisu's dad crying for him 😭 2. The girl who remembered what happened and knew it wasn't fireworks. Did she also know where they were? Seems so.  3. I should have been clearer that Karube and Chota mentioned that Arisu had help in all games, but not only from them. And they weren't mad at him, but rather wanted him to accept that and not spend the rest of his life apologizing for it.  4. Ahn's tear during surgery and later opening her eyes.  

Hey guys, after today's shows (Alice in Borderland for free and The Last of US for Premium), the podcast will be dark for a few days while I visit my dad in the hospital. Thanks for understanding. 

The wife knows! (That damn watch strap.) But he don't know the wife knows! And we don't know what the fuck is going to happen next.   

Boji's home! And no one turns enemies into friends quicker than him. Fingers crossed this ends with Hiling and Ann running off together.   

We're covering The Last of Us exclusively on Patreon. Here's one-time free access to the first episode podcast.

So many backstories! Heiya was a mean girl and Chishiya was a doctor! Didn't see that one coming. We're grateful Usagi found her fighting spirit again and has resolved to go back home. The game in episode 6 would have killed us all 'cause that was too much math.

Here's one-time access to our coverage of AMC's The Mayfair Witches, the latest installment in their Anne Rice Immortal Universe. We also covered Interview with the Vampire on our Patreon.

Ji-won got homie's watch in 4K. How the hell is going to get out of this one?

I would have stayed in that Jack of Hearts prison for a smooth month playing that damn game. Sheeeeit. They had snacks! 

Our next k-drama is Flower of Evil. How well does Detective Cha know her husband Hee-Sung? We're all about to find out after a recent murder reopens a serial killer case from decades ago.  Remember when Dexter was good? Well, this is like that but better. 

Armed with new skills and a sword, Bojji marches to war. Also, new opening song! 

Arisu and his friends take on the face cards starting with the King of Spades. 

Dana makes enough poor life choices in present day (Kevin, really?) so time traveling back to slavery is just cruel. 

So, add King Bosse to the long list of shitty anime dads?

"Though my life is unusual and peculiar, it is valuable and beautiful."  Indeed. 

A last-minute business trip to Jeju Island reveals the beginnings of a new romance and a road bump for another. 

We felt this betrayal in our bones. Yet, these episdoes had a pretty big reveal: Bojji and Kage are both cursed?

Two episodes filled with misogyny. Good thing Woo Young-woo is a badass. 

Hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend.  We're surprisingly sad to see this show go. 11 seasons - some great and some not so - culminated in a satisfying finale that nicely set up the spinoffs. 

Can we please stop shooting the Grimes children? Who will kill Pamela? Will Rick and Michonne return for the finale? Are we even ready for this series finale?

One of the things we really love about this series is how it highlights serious issues in South Korean society. This week it's the push by parents to have their kids be successful in school and the lack of care and understanding given to folks with autism. 

Itaewon Class comes to a very satisfying conclusion. In 16 episodes it examined class status, prejudice against the trans community, and who gets to be considered Korean. Oh, and some good old-fashioned revenge. 

As Negan considers a deal with the warden, Mercer considers the future of The Commonwealth. 

Rumors of Attorney Woo's special treatment swirl around Hanbada thanks to Attorney Kwon. The team takes on a case to keep a very special town together. 

With Geun-won in prison, Geun-soo looks to be getting his villain clothes ready. There's a surprising connection between Toni and Mrs. Kim, and it may be the answer to Saeroyi's problems.

Pamela Milton has Eugene hunted for the death of her son. Meanwhile, Maggie, Darly, Carol, Rosita, and Gabe find the others have been taken to a very familiar place. 

We look forward to supporting all of Rhaenyra's war crimes in season 2.

In which we devote our hearts to Prince Bojji, first of his name. 

Y'all weren't gonna tell me walkers are climbing ladders and turning doorknobs now?

When Hanbada takes on a case involving ATMs, it cements for Woo Young-woo the type of attorney she wants to be. Episode 6, "If I Were a Whale" focuses on a North Korean defector and the power of a mother's love.  

That castle was dark, dank, and full of treason. Delicious, frustrating, dragon-killing treason.  Alicent is ready to usurp Rhaenyra's crown before she ever gets to wear it based on a misunderstanding, but draws the line at not being involved in the planning all along... despite knowing ALL ALONG this is what her father was going to do. Criston Cole continues to murder with impunity and Rhaenys is very selective about who she murders with her dragon (but whatever; it looked amazing). Oh, and we hanging Lords in the foyer and there was foot play. It was a lot and it's not even the finale.

Saeroyi helps those around him in order for his new business location to succeed; after Geun-won messes up again, Jang has to choose between his son and his company.

Vaemond said the quiet part out loud. War soon come.

Carol and Negan rush to find leverage against Hornsby. 

There was so much treason going on. And that child just colonized a dragon. 

Saeroyi stays a step or two ahead of Jang with the help of a not-so-secret-anymore alliance. We finally get a bit of Toni's storyline and the prejudice and racism he faces as a Black Korean. 

Attorney Woo defends an autistic young man accused of murdering his brother, and we see the origins of the bestest besties.

Ten years later and Criston Cole is still employed and still a whiny, masogynistic bitch and petty Queen Alicent is only too willing to fuel his insecurities as he fuels hers. 

I'm not holding my breath that I'll get it, but I'm shipping Saeroyi and Yi-seo something fierce. Saeroyi continues to be the type of character who brings out the best in those around him -- making him the natural enemy of someone like Jang who poisons everyone -- and it's going to be interesting to see if his ragtag crew can really pull this off.   

So happy I got the family to sit down and watch what has become one of my favorite k-dramas. Here, we get to know Woo Young-woo, the first autistic attorney in South Korea, through her first two cases. 

No one wants off this mortal coil more than Viserys Targaryen and we get it. 

The only thing open during the hour of the owl is legs. 

Yi-seo has entered the chat and just like that our alliance has shifted. Hey, we're a sucker for a wild child with no filter. On the slow burn revenge front: FIFTEEN years? Saeroyi has a 15-year plan to take down Jang. This man has been living off nothing but petty and spite. And we approve.   

All a king wants to do is celebrate the second name day of the son he had with his daughter's bestie. Oh, and marry said daughter off to a Lannister frat boy. He doesn't want to be bothered with a war that he's losing or quieting the whispers that call for his daughter's removal as his heir.  And that's why we won't have nice things and I can't believe dragons will die for this.  Speaking of dragons...  Those Targaryen boys just built different. Fueled by nothing but petty spite, Daemon ended the war in the Stepstones in five minutes, all so he wouldn't have to thank his brother for the help he didn't ask for. I stan forever.  Listen as Sarah and I break down the latest episode of Viserys, What Is You Thinking?  

We end the season with the Paper Girls separated, but with a clear mission: don't invent time travel! No idea where Mac and KJ were sent (hopefully someplace without dinosaurs), but Tiffany and Erin are in the '70s. I hope it's kind to little Black and Chinese girls.   

If there's one thing King Viserys is gonna do every time, it's make the wrong damn decision. Not that marrying a 12-year-old would be BETTER... What he needs to do is worry about those festering wounds and just let his daughter learn to rule from someone who actually knows how to do it. But, alas... he's in love or whatever.  Thankfully, Corlys and Daemon are both over it and it looks like we'll get some action dragon next week. And can we please, please, please keep precious Laena away from King's Landing until she's at least 30?   

Adult Tiff is amazing and we're happy KJ found someone to talk to about her love of "movies."   

Set nearly 200 years before they did my girl Dany dirty (I’m not interested in arguing with you about this), House of the Dragon is follows the events in George RR Martin’s 2018 book Fire & Blood — the first of two volumes detailing the rise and fall of the Targaryen dynasty. Because the show begins at the halfway point of volume one, we don’t get to see Aegon and his sister-wives bring Westeros to heel. Instead, we’re in the year 101 A.C. when King Jaehaerys I names his grandson Viserys the Prince of Dragonstone and rightful heir to the Iron Throne. This sets off decades of betrayal and infighting (and incest) that culminates in the infamous Dance of the Dragons. As odd as it sounds, it felt good to be back in this world of political machinations, tragic pregnancies, violent jousting, and dragons. Oh, so many dragons. Sarah and I discussed the season premiere, providing a bit of Westerosi history along the way.

We love an old-fashioned tale of revenge and when it comes with a side of questioning class, privilege, and belonging in South Korea, even better. And if it stars Park Seo-Joon? Well, now Itaewon Class is just showing off. We were instantly invested in the relationship between Park's ex-con turned bar owner Park Saeroyi and his hardworking, generous father played by Son Heung-Ju. To be a week ahead with our Itaewon Class podcasts, subscribe to Project Fandom on Patreon.

We knew the inappropriate yet oddly sweet bro-sis reunion would be short-lived, but it still sucked to see Mac bawling on the back of that bike. Next up? Just how disappointing will future Tiff be?  

Even though the episode hit all the beats of a series premiere (origins of the hero’s power, training montage, etc.), it still felt like a 30-minute cold open and that’s fine. It set up the quirky tone of the show nicely with hints of higher stakes and bigger dangers to come. Tatiana Maslany shines, but those of us who loved Orphan Black expected as much. This a special free listen to our Premium coverage of She-Hulk. To listen to us discuss the full season, subscribe on Patreon.

Not having read the graphic novel series, my anticipation for Netflix’s live-action adaptation of The Sandman was based on solely on my love of Neil Gaiman’s other works (American Gods), the visuals in the trailer, and the diversity of the cast. Everything delivered in the first two episodes. Charles Dance’s Roderick Burgess was like if Tywin Lannister went to Hogwarts — and you know he’d have been Slytherin — and Tom Sturridge is about to AMSR his way into reading some Buzzfeed thirst tweets. It’s not until episode two, when Sturridge’s Morpheus witnesses the cost of his absence, that things get truly beautiful.

We doubled up and covered two episodes this week because Paper Girls is just so damn good. The time travel, healing robotic insects, and giant mech are all cool, but the best moments continue to be the ones in which the girls bond. Those scenes are so well-written and the actors bring them to life in a way that feels natural. A few highlights include KJ calling out Mac for the hate speech she repeats, Mac and Erin clearing the air after that whole “you shot me in the gut” thing, and the four new friends unpacking what it means to be decades ahead of all the people and things they love. We’ll be reviewing episodes 4 and 5 together for next week’s Paper Girl podcast. Really looking forward to seeing adult Tiffany and more of Mac coming to terms with the news about her health and her oddly wholesome relationship with her brother.

In Money Heist Korea: Joint Economic Area, the reunification of North Korea and South Korea promises economic prosperity for all. In reality, the rich got richer, the poor got poorer, and in that widening gap a criminal mastermind hatched a plan.  

What we have coming up this week and beyond. Send show feedback to [email protected].

Based on the graphic novel by Brian K. Vaughan and Cliff Chiang, Paper Girls is a live-action 8-episode series set in the '80s and follows four girls on their morning paper route. Too bad it's the morning of Hell Day. 

We take a break from all the murder with two thoughtful, but still hilarious, episodes focusing on Bunny's surprising connections with those around her and a look into the interrupted father-daughter bond between Charles and Lucy. We might be back to murder soon enough as it seems the newly released Teddy is Will's real father?

Don't judge us.

So, Bunny's mom did it, right? Also, if there's a next victim, I nominate Amy Schumer.   

There were some tech difficulties in three spots so there may be a jump in the conversation but it shouldn't be anything too bad.  Another good episode. We all hope Kathleen really did read Michael's ass for filth.   

One episode in and we're already arguing over which world is real.  Welcome back, Westworld. We missed you.  

She's perfect. I wouldn't change a thing. 

Why did I want to see the owl theory? HOWEVER, listening to Sarah describe how it scared the shit out of her and how Ellen thought it would be like a scene in a '90s Debra Winger movie made it all worth it. We all agreed this episode felt the most "TV" so far, but we enjoyed it. 

This did not disappoint. Dare I say, it was even better than I thought it would be? Young Leia, an Obi-Wan filled with doubt, a reckless and frightening Inquisitor in Reva, more cute droids, new locations and old favorites. Plus, that reveal at the end of episode 2. I have zero complaints.   

Michael stay getting ass and I don't know how. Also, did... did he join a Black gang? That footage had Sophie down bad.  Next week: Hoot-Hoot 

Still enjoying the way they're telling the story, complete with the reenactments of the different theories. The manipulation of the daughters is hard to watch, though. As is the obvious pure-T homophobia. 

First, special thank you to Julie for co-hosting with me and for agreeing to help me cover season 2!  The Hansu episode was tragic, yet beautiful. While it doesn't excuse anything he has done thus far, it does explain a lot. Little is Noa is a spark plug! I'm most looking forward to learning where he is in "present" especially now that we know Hansu came sniffing around. Ugh. And I just know he had something to do with Isak's arrest. Season 2 can't get here soon enough.  

Cortana was like, you must not know 'bout me. 

Cruelty really is the point. Everything about life for Koreans in Osaka was as hard as Hansu said it would be, but my god won't marginalized folks find a way to have joy? The birth of Noa was a beautiful moment and cemented this new household as a family. I'm so happy this will be back for a second season. Julie and I will be back next week to talk about the final two episodes of season one.

22 years ago, John was a snitch. And yet, Soren still fucks with him.  I do not like Dr. Halsey and Vishnar needs to go.   

Everything about Sunja's goodbye was as heartbreaking as her return was joyous. Wow.   

I'm joined by Sarah and Ellen to discuss the first three episodes. We're all aware of the case and watched the documentary this series is largely based on so we will be discussing events that might be considered "spoilers," but as this IS based on a true story that's to be expected. The casting/acting has been the highlight so far, and they've managed to tell this in a way that's interesting to those who've seen the documentary.   

Here's a free preview of our Patreon-only Moon Knight coverage. 

I'm joined by my friend Julie to discuss the first three episodes of Pachinko. There's a bit of history, a lot of sharing, some tears, and plenty of laughter.   

Yoooo, this was way better than I expected. Admittedly, my expectations were set by past live-action video game adaptations. I loved the way this felt like playing Halo. For some, Master Chief taking off his helmet is a problem; I thought it made sense for the story and didn't bother me at all. Kinda wishing they'd released more episodes.  

We got a catfight, the funniest political debate I've ever seen, and possible cannibals. Oh, and Alma is about to become governor of the DMZ after being there two whole days. El-oh-el.  

After a second American civil war, Alma Ortega sneaks into the DMZ of Manhattan to search for her son. We have lots of questions and lots of love for Odi. Also, Benjamin Bratt is aging like fine-ass wine. 

I wouldn't have thought this show would make me cry so hard at the end, but it did. Though, I still don't know why or what the fuck. 

Absolutely gutted by that death. Despite the foreshadowing, we'd hoped they'd be safe. The backstory of Hyun-su's bullying is as infuriating as it is confusing. Was his bully just a sociopath?

Not really here for Hyun-su as the demon errand boy. It's one thing if he offered, but being forced to do the dirty work and then put into isolation is fucked up. Sang-wook's backstory is tragic, but what a badass move in bringing back those corpses. 

Hyun-su is... special. Is this an apartment building filled with traumatized people being hunted and haunted by their literal demons? 

From the twisted mind of Kim Carnby comes a live-action Netflix adaptation of his graphic novel series "Sweet Home." It's gory, it's weird, it's oddly heartbreaking. And that's just the first two episodes. 

Kuina is a queen! Episode 7 was the best of the season (maybe 3 is a close second). The ending was satisfying and we're really looking forward to season 2. 

We finally reach The Beach and these people have lost their damn minds. Arisu was way too trusting and if he'd have picked up on all the AIW references, he would know you can't trust the Cheshire Cat!  On to the witch hunt! I love a good locked room mystery. 

Happy New Year! We're back after the holiday break to talk about the return of Neo in The Matrix: Resurrections.  

Didn't think they had the balls to kill certain characters so early, but here we are. And here they aren't.

Why, oh, why do I love shit like this?  So, what's up? Aliens? Virtual reality where you die.. in reality? Was it those bizarre mid-day fireworks?
