We reach the middle portion of our Mission: Impossible Retrospective with entries from a young, hungry JJ Abrams and an unexpectedly competent Brad Bird. In "News," we give an update to last week's story about a TV with two screens, another check-in with the WGA Strike, and a report from the Cannes Film Fest. In "The Watchlist", it's Fatal Attraction, Dungeons & Dragons, and Barry. To round out the show, in "The Mentionables" Matt recommends a profile about Jeremy Strong and Chuck's got a report he needs you to read. All THAT, plus our "Picks of the Week!"
