Welcome to our new show, which is the same as the last show but about different shows! This one's about Tales of the Underworld! As always, Julia and Becca are here in the name of character, theme, and plot analysis. Goofs mandatory.

Talking points include: The universality of storytelling, Andor as another layer of connecting the prequel era with the original era, time jumps as a story mechanism, redeemed in death & the danger of being complicit, use of POV shots, how Andor integrates the audience, how to craft an environment & fashion to communicate a message, complex, human characters, the insane balance of plot driven vs. character driven storytelling, and we expect you to all watch Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Talking points include: We have some feelings about book plot + animated show, how to support a character motivation, alternate tropes for Ventress, Artists R Us, the punchy character arc of sad separatist grandpa, Westerns 101 and the art of fated tragedy. There's some good, some bad, but certainly nothing ugly!

Welcome to our new show, which is the same as the last show but about different shows! This one's about The Star Wars Holiday Special! Usually, Julia and Becca are here in the name of character, theme, and plot analysis, but uh... this ones all Goofs. Oops all goofs!

Talking points include: Was this as unfunny in 1978 as it is now? its hard to tell, more of an experience than a story really, Jefferson Starship should be cannon in the Star Wars universe, the horror anime that is Mark Hamil's eyes, Chewie went to war and came back with a boyfriend, and yes, I think this was written by a sentient bag of cocaine.

Welcome to our new show, which is the same as the last show but about different shows! This one's about Andor! As always, Julia and Becca are here in the name of character, theme, and plot analysis. Goofs mandatory.

Talking points include: First and foremost, we want to smooch Diego Luna, the success of "plot units" in keeping the narrative fresh, a cast of deeply flawed characters and how that makes them more human, the radicalization of Cassian Andor, the responsibility of creators and their impact on an audience, and the key to resisting tyranny is by championing community. Also we're so happy there is no Jedi garbage in this.

Welcome to our new show, which is the same as the last show but about select episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars! As always, Julia and Becca are here in the name of character, theme, and plot analysis. Goofs mandatory.

Talking points include: the only morsel of Grievous lore and we're eating it up, a surprising amount of fights in hallways, Art and Architecture chat, Kit Fisto: The Good Times Jedi, the component parts of Star Wars and using them in a new way, and this math ain't mathin' and we will never be able to figure out why.

Talking points include: We love that radio station, the first domino to fall in the legacy of clone episodes, the one and only "swear" in Clone Wars, WW2 fuselage art and what it could mean to these boys, building suspense with b plot, showing not telling (it's because of the radio again), and Cody and Rex are either best friends, boyfriends, or coworkers, it's hard to tell.

Talking points include: We made a goofy point system, enjoy! A good arc, but maybe not a great one, the light of the red sun blinds all, Obi-wan's crystalline eyes, good character intros, and bonus points awarded to fun clone haircuts and that one line of dialogue that haunts us weekly.

Talking points include: we are really unpacking the mixed reviews for this show (spoiler alert! it's misogyny & racism!), in this house we stan a diverse writer's room queen: Leslye Headland, the antidote to a nearly bloated "Marvel cinematic universe" problem is bringing fresh eyes and concentrating on story, this may be the first episode where we have pretty diverging opinions about character deaths! wow!, forshadowing done right, too little characterization? too much characterization?, how to avoid having your characters become redshirts, the power of the bicep (please listen to Disney's audio description of that one scene in episode 6), & overall, a great show!
