From Max undoing its own rebrand to Disney trotting out football players at Upfronts, the state of TV in 2025 is one big mess – and we’re here to walk you through it. This week, we unpack everything from the future of The Last of Us after its season 2 finale, to the crushing brilliance of Andor Season 2, to the onslaught of nostalgia-bait reboots (Scrubs, Buffy, Malcolm in the Middle, oh my).
