There are so many shows worth checking out right now that we crumbled under the pressure and instead spend our first 10 minutes talking about rewatching 30 Rock - a sitcom that absolutely still holds up really well.

We also explore teens staying up all night in HBO teen drama Euphoria (thanks to drugs and partying) and American Graffiti (thanks to enjoying driving around in cars). Oh, and we delve into the Martin Scorsese doco Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story.

Oh, and then we discuss the abstract comedy genius that is Good Afternoon Adelaide.

This is too much podcast. Can you believe you're getting it for free?

This week on the podcast Dan & Chris shout: "Baaaaaaaaat!" as they discuss the hilarious new comedy What We Do In The Shadows. They also discuss the great new drama Years and Years. Oh, and then they mix some chatter in about the new Neil Gaiman-written show Good Omens and Chris talks up a kids cartoon about The Cat In The Hat. If this is your first Always Be Watching podcast, welcome! We hope you find some interesting TV suggestions here.

It has been quite the week of viewing for Chris and Dan. The big TV show of the week is the third season return of The Handmaid's Tale - Dan offers his thoughts on it and the very unique problem the show has. Also up for discussion is the UK TV show The Detectorists and new film Godzilla 2: King of The Monsters.

But, stick around for our conversation about a screening Dan and Chris attended of the classic Australian film Young Einstein. At the screening, director, writer, and star Yahoo Serious made a very rare appearance. So, we offer our thoughts on the event and how the film holds together 30 years later.

WARNING: There's some bad language in this one.

Avengers: Endgame is an absolute cultural juggernaut and it needed to be discussed. So, we reached out to one of our favourite culture writers (and hardcore Marvel fan) Maria Lewis to join us for a spoiler-free chat about the movie and its place in the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe.

It's a fun, casual chat about the biggest movie in the world. But, we also chat about some of the great shows we've been watching lately too.
