Extra Hot Great: This Week In TV

367: Mr. Corman's Existential Crisis


Listen Later

Kamille Washington of the Unfriendly Black Hotties podcast is back to discuss Mr. Corman, a (possibly too) slow-building show about a musician turned grade-school teacher/anxiety sufferer and his angst. Did star/producer/crafty coordinator Joseph Gordon-Levitt take on too many jobs -- and not enough fresh story? Why couldn't the show be about Arturo Castro's character? And can we look forward to a Debra Wingeraissance? We went Around The Dial with First Wives Club's second season, FBoy Island, Real Housewives Of Potomac, CNBC crime shows, and UFO; then Courtney and Craig asked us which TV characters are the most likely to vape obnoxiously (and none of us had any trouble answering). We conferred on whether a New Girl episode was adorkable enough for the Canon, then declared a Winner and a Loser of the week before finding out whether a superpowered Game Time was our kryptonite. Get your sneakers off the couch and listen to an all-new Extra Hot Great.
