New Seth Rogen Hollywood satire series 'The Studio' is one of the best and funniest shows of the year.

Joining Schmear to help break it down is Jesse Aaronson. The two give their top-line thoughts (3:19), discuss some of the best and worst examples of the "Hollywood" subgenre on the small screen (10:17), then assess the incredibly hysterical, smart, and stylish first episode "The Promotion" (15:09) and talk about the farcical comedy of episode two, "The Oner" (34:27).

They walk through which characters they're enjoying most (38:47) before projecting what they want to see in the rest of the season for it to remain successful (42:12).

They wrap up by drafting a starting five of their favorite "Hollywood" movies against each other (46:16), where Jesse makes a bold, brilliant pick that undercuts Schmear's top-heavy strategy.
