Welcome to season 3 of Skye & Stone do Television! In this miniseries, we're covering SEASON ONE of HBO's "Lovecraft Country"! The show is hosted by Chloe Skye & Jupiter Stone (that's us)! This week, we're breaking down the first episode of season one of Lovecraft Country, entitled SUNDOWN.

 

We start off by talking about our personal histories with "Lovecraft Country" the book, HP Lovecraft, Jordan Peele, and JJ Abrams, as well as our familiarity with some similar recent shows on HBO. Then we dive into a scene-by-scene breakdown of the episode, taking conversational detours along to way to talk about social issues, history, and what we've learning from watching television shows like this one.
