Normal People, The Last Dance, and The Challenge

There is a plethora of TV, and much of it is a waste. The people telling you what to watch? Too many of them have stakes in the business. Taking It Down fixes that. Every Tuesday, hosts Blaine, Adam, and Donovan tell you spoiler-free if a show’s worth your time. Then they discuss exactly why a series works or how it became junk. No pretension. No industry spin. Just clear talk that respects your Intelligence and helps you pick what's good to see. You want to know what’s worth it and the reason to watch it, including unpacking the episodes? That’s Taking It Down.
