Taking It Down

'Zero Day' Fails, 'The White Lotus' Needs a New Template, and 'Severance' Soars


Listen Later

This week, we begin with a welcome and small request (0:09).

Then it's into the TV discussions. 'Zero Day' on Netflix may look like a thrilling ride with Robert De Niro in the lead with an all-star ensemble, but in the non-spoiler section, we begin with it and why it fails (1:11). Also in the non-spoiler section is the HBO show 'The White Lotus' and how the third season needs to change (8:53).

As we switch into the spoiler section, we detail the second episode of 'The White Lotus' and what it is doing right and wrong (13:09). Lastly, we explain how 'Severance' achieved amazing heights with its most recent episode (36:46).
