The Pitt season 1 was a revelation when it premiered in 2025. With so much hype leading into the second season, it wouldn't be surprising if the show failed to meet those expectations. The second season takes place 10 months later, and each character is in a much different place than when we last saw them. It sounds interesting enough, but did it work? Listen to Kyle's thoughts on the second season of The Pitt on this week's episode.

Ted Lasso may have been the reason to sign up for Apple TV, but shrinking will be the reason you keep it. The third season recently concluded, and solidifies the series as the best comedy the platform has to offer.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie grossed over 1.3 billion dollars at the worldwide box office. Unfortunately, it was not well received by the critics. Hopefully, with the sequel, the studio learned from their mistakes and The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is everything we could hope for in a Super Mario movie...

The Monsterverse films may be diminishing returns creatively, but thankfully, the television side doesn't have the same problem. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters returns to the small screen and has what so many have wished the films had: compelling human characters. The first season ended on quite the cliffhanger, and 3 years is a long time to wait between seasons. Hopefully, season 2 can be just as satisfying a watch.

It could be argued that Daredevil: Born Again was one of the most anticipated projects in the history of the MCU. The show was initially conceived to have few connections to the earlier series, and while it may seem obvious that would be a mistake. Thankfully, a correction was made during the production of the first season, which essentially made Born Again season 1 into Daredevil season 4. Now, let's find out what happens when there is a clear creative vision for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2!

Delivering a successful blockbuster is more challenging than you might expect. There needs to be a compelling star, memorable action sequences, and a story that makes people care. It is unfortunate that with streaming, the expectation for a good blockbuster has been diluted. Phil Lord and Chris Miller aren't diluting the genre; they are showing what it is capable of. Listen to this week's review of Project Hail Mary.

Invincible is easily one of Prime Video's most popular shows, and thankfully, the wait between seasons has been dramatically reduced.
