Matt, Dawn and Sarah are back to review three shows we've always championed. Firstly, Sanjeev Bhaskar packs his backpack for series 6 of the jewel in ITV's crown Unforgotten. He returns along with new colleague Jessie (Sinéad Keenan) to investigate another cold case when body parts are found in a river. The series introduces us to four disconnected families or stories but how do they connect to the body? Next, it's been a long wait for the third season of the hit US comedy Hacks. The series, which originally aired on Prime Video is now available on Sky and NOW and they've bought the first two seasons and the third season which means our wait is over. The incredible comedy with two equally powerful performances from Jean Smart and Hannah Einbeinder delivers possibly its strongest season yet. Next, Jack Rooke's semi-autobiographical comedy Big Boys is back for its third and final series, and on Netflix, there's a new true-crime drama Apple Cider Vinegar about an infamous Australian cancer scammer. 

Matt is joined by Dawn and Mo to review another 4 new shows. On Channel 4, Steve Coogan interviews Harriet Walter's Margeret Thatcher in true life drama Brian & Maggie. The BBC's latest Sunday night fare tells the little known story behind the Austen sisters in Miss Austen. Channel 4 tackles people's views on the migrant crisis in slightly controversial new series, Go Back Where You Came From. Finally, Motherland's Queen Bee Amanda gets her own spin-off in the BBC's Amandaland.

There's discussion on the anti-climatic finale of The Traitors as well as new twisty drama The Paradise on Hulu & Disney+

Matt, Dawn and Gary board the TV Time Machine and enter a new Millennium. They review four new shows that began in January. Dom Jolly takes to the streets to terrorise and irritate the British public in Channel 4's hidden camera hit Trigger Happy TV. The BBC attempt the UK's first big reality series by sending groups of people to spend a year on a not so deserted island in Castaway. Though it's remembered as being the show that launched Ben Fogle, in practice, it was a mess. Poorly planned, and poorly executed with most of those who took part either leaving before the end or suing the production company. Next, At Home with The Braithwaites, the show that launched Sally Wainwright and the almost forgotten but still absolutely perfect, Clocking Off, with one of the best ensemble casts to ever grace our screens.

Finally, Dawn and Gary go head to head in the first music quiz of the new era.

Dawn and Sarah join Matt to review four new shows and break down their thoughts on the latest episodes of The Traitors.

First, after a 3-year absence, Severance is finally back on Apple TV+ Easily one of the most anticipated shows of the year, the trio get lost in the immersive world of Lumon Industries while Sarah turns to Reddit to explore what the 'clever' fans are talking about. Next, also on Apple, there's preposterous 'Maths thriller Prime Target. On ITV Martin Clunes stars in new drama Out There about a rural farmer caught up in County Lines created by the same team who worked with Clunes on the true-life crime drama Manhunt. Finally, on Netflix, there's American Primeval, a gritty, brutal and violent of the 1800's with another stunning performance from the always brilliant Betty Gilpin as a woman trying to find save passage through America. It takes the trio by pleasant surprise. There's also discussion on The Breakthrough from Netflix 

Dawn and Sarah join Matt to talk about the best Christmas TV and review the first 4 new shows of the new year. Firstly, Sky and Peacock bring us Colin Firth in a harrowing retelling of one man's search for answers following the Lockerbie disaster. Then, James Norton stars as a father who learns he may have brought the wrong baby home from the hospital in ITV's melodramatic airport novel Playing Nice.  Then, Channel 4 adapts French drama Astrid: A Murder in Paris, transporting the story of an autistic woman who works in the police records office from Paris to York. The results are mixed to be kind and mind-numbing to be truthful. Finally, the BBC helps fight off the January Blues with the return of The Traitors. All three podcast hosts are already hooked.

It's the final pod of 2024, looking back on the very best the TV had to offer. Luke and Dawn join Matt to count their personal Top 10's of the year whilst also counting down the favourites of the wider Custard TV team.

Expect discussions on Slow Horses, Mr & Mrs Smith, True Detective: Night Country, Rivals and many more.

In what is slowly becoming a festive tradition, members of the custardtv podcast get together to chat. Not to review a show, but to chat as friends and look back, look forward and try to make sense at the same time. Enjoy the freest podcast of the year as Matt, Dawn, Mo & Sarah get together for an end-of-year chat and unofficial Christmas party.

Matt and Luke board the TV Time Machine for one final time in 1999 to review 4 not so festive treats from December. Firstly, Martin Clunes stars in an off-kilter comedy drama about the inner workings of a shock TV show entitled 'Sex And Death' Then, there's the only Christmassy-sounding show, in BBC One's sort of family drama Last Christmas starring Pauline Quirke and Ray Winstone. Then, the pair examine the evolution of Graham Norton by looking back at his first Christmas Show as part of So Graham Norton on Channel 4. Lastly, the barely known comedy duo Matt Lucas and David Walliams get their first shot at TV with UK Play's Rock Profile in which the pair play over-the-top versions of Pop stars such as George Michael, the lads from Steps and Michael Jackson and his ever-loyal friend Elizabeth Taylor. Also, Matt tests Luke's music knowledge for the final time with the Christmas Chart of December 99 where Cliff Richard's The Millennium Prayer is still hanging around!

Matt is joined by podcast regulars Dawn Glen and Sophie Davies to review dark comedy No Good Deed on Netflix. Christmassy fare Bad Tidings on Sky as well as the final season of What We Do in the Shadows on Disney+. 

Matt's back with Dawn Glen and Mo Walker to review the high-octane British spy thriller Black Doves on Netflix. Slightly less high-octane but still a spy thriller, The Agency over on Paramount+ as well as the high concept US drama Mrs Davis and true crime drama The Sticky from Prime Video.
