The end is in sight. Michael contemplates an offer from Jimmy. Desire 2.0 = Desire 1.0.

A fun episode (with some ideas, to boot) wraps up this hugely entertaining season.

Ellie doesn't find religion. You don't need to inject the antibiotics exactly into the site of the infection (but I probably would so the same). Pastor David takes "serving" his congregation to another level.

I try ranking the 10 Oscar nominated films from best to worst and provide where you can watch them.

Ellie has her first trip to the mall, her first kiss, her first bit from a fungal zombie, her first wound closing via needle and thread (presumably). FEDRA is doing a terrible job of training their recruits to kill these zombies (go for the head).

All the dominoes are falling. It's the end of the world as he knows it... and Jimmy Baxter feels fine...better than fine. Charlie still hasn't revealed all of his secrets, I think. Fia needs a new home. Gina is always thinking about one thing... Gina. Big Mo has big problems... and few friends.

After a brief and spoiler-free review of Quantumania and a some sci-fi romantic comedy recommendations I break down the latest episode, Kin, which is my favorite episode of the show, so far. 

Things are pretty nice in Wyoming, if you don't mind the snow. Joel wants to be a sheep herding country singer. Ellie reads someone's diary and has lots of notes to the author. Tommy is going to be a daddy and doesn't want to turn into Joel.

Sharper on AppleTV is a fun con game.

The pace is picking up. Rather than being forgotten, Robin's death may be the lynchpin to this final stretch of the show. Carmine thinks he knows Jimmy's business better than Jimmy does. Monique has a tainted-heroin problem AND a Eugene problem. To no one's surprise, Carlo is a terrible babysitter. Fia makes goo goo eyes at a handsome priest (she has terrible taste in men).

Bad Sisters (41:25)

Celia and I discuss a hidden gem (to me) from last season, Bad Sisters.

Gina is an angry pastry chef. Olivia makes too many housecalls. Nancy finally makes her arrest. The Baxter children sweetly bond over murder fantasies. Gina is too close with her dad (and son). Jimmy makes wins back Gina. Michael wants to quit (again). Monique gets her music club but it may have put a target on her back. Little Mo exits... the hard way.

Ellie's got JOKES! Joel drops some knowledge. Sometimes the long way around is shorter. Drawing superhero pictures of yourself may actually give you superpowers. Melanie Lynskey teases the Last of Us/Yellowjackets crossover that we NEED.
