December 07, 2021 E58: Succession Season 3 - Episode 8 - Chiantishire
One of the very best episodes of Succession, this week. Did someone die this week? Roman accidentally sexts his dad. And that is maybe the 10th most important thing to occur in this episode.
The internet seems to think so, I disagree.

December 02, 2021 E57: Succession Season 3 - Episode 7 - Too Much Birthday
Sona is back and after dipping back into last week's episode we break down the latest. Speaking of breakdowns, Kendal seems to be on the verge of one (another?). It's often funny but there are lots of dark moments here, too.

November 30, 2021 E56: Dexter New Blood - Episode 4 - H Is for Hero - PLUS - Lots of Recommendations
Sona is back from vacation! We catch up on Dexter New Blood. Plus Sona recommends Booksmart, Hacks, and Stand By Me!!
For my part, I recommend Another Round and the podcast The Plot Thickens.

November 24, 2021 E55: Succession Season 3 - Episode 6 - What it Takes
What does it take to take down a democracy. The Roy family may just find out. This is a grim episode but full of hilarious moments, nonetheless.

November 23, 2021 E54: Dexter New Blood - Episode 3 - PLUS - The Final Girl Support Group
Dex and Harrison are still having trouble bonding and Kurt is now a confirmed creep. Harrison has his own (murderous?) vigilante tendencies. And a new podcaster is in town (podcasters are the real enemy, afterall).
Plus, I recommend Grady Hendrix's novel, The Final Girl Support Group (even though I solved the mystery early on). It's an interesting exploration of why we keep fixating on these stories of serial killers. Hey, why am I watching Dexter, anyway?

November 18, 2021 E53: Succession Season 3 - Episode 5 - Retired Janitors of Idaho
A great episode this week. Starts suspenseful and turns into a screwball comedy.

November 15, 2021 E52: Dexter New Blood - Episode 2 - PLUS - Yellowjackets and one more attempt at You
The screws begin to tighten on Dexter. I like this episode, as does Sona. Plus, I have seen the first episode of Yellowjackets and it is very good. Lastly, I give You one last attempt and I really like it... at first.

November 14, 2021 E51: Dexter New Blood - Episode 1 PLUS YOU
Sona and I watch the new Dexter. It is much better than the last few seasons of the show but is the magic back? I am skeptical. Where is that credits sequence?
Plus I try to watch Season 1 of YOU on Netflix and I am not a fan but I have lots to say about it.

November 10, 2021 E50: Succession Season 3 Episode 4 - Lion in the Meadow PLUS: More Succession Episode 3 talk
What does this title mean? The Lion in Winter would be more appropriate. Sona finally discusses last week's episode. Adrianne Brodie joins the cast. The shareholder meeting looms.

November 03, 2021 E49: Succession Season 3 Episode 3 - The Disruption - PLUS: You, on Netflix
Sona tries to get me to watch You. Then we discuss last week's episode of Succession before I do a full recap and review of the current week's episode. They are both really strong episodes, especially this week.
