615: Having Fun Out Of The Sun For The Summer TV Preview

from Extra Hot Great: This Week In TV · host Extra Hot Great: This Week In TV

The last of the Emmy-begging shows are nearly behind us, which means it’s time to look ahead to what has historically been TV’s silliest season: summer! Alan Sepinwall and Kathryn VanArendonk, co-hosts of the new podcast TV Is Good, join us to share the shows they’re into; the shows they should be into but aren’t; the shows no one should be into; and the “Good For You!” shows that aren’t for them but have a right to exist. Wendy pitches “Take My Finals, Please” from The Facts Of Life for induction into The Canon. Then, after naming the week’s Winner and Loser, we close on a Non-Regulation Game Time worth singing about. Close all your blinds against the blazing sun and listen!GUESTS👤 Alan Sepinwall👤 Kathryn VanArendonkTOPICSLead Topic: 🏖️ Summer TV PreviewThe Canon: 📙 The Facts Of Life S04.E22: Take My Finals, PleaseWinner & Loser: 🤠 The LowdownWinner & Loser: 🎙️ AMCGame Time: 🎼 Tube Tunes XVIISUPPORT THE SHOW🔥 Join the EHG Club for bonus episodes, no ads, community Discord and more!🎧 Subscribe to EHG on Apple Podcasts for bonus episodes and no ads!🛍️ Shop our merch store!NOTES🗒 Full episode notes can be found on this episode's page on our site🦋 Alan Sepinwall on Bluesky🦋 Kathryn VanArendonk on Bluesky🦋 The TV Is Good podcast on Bluesky📺 The TV Is Good podcast🔥 EEHG 407⛴️ “Why Widow’s Bay Is The Horror Comedy You Should Be Watching” at GQ☘️ “Breakout Horror Comedy Star [Kate O’Flynn] Is Giving TV’s Best Performance” at The Daily Beast🪞 Serling: A Journey Into The Twilight Zone With TV's First Visionary at Hachette📰 The Best Evidence newsletter🐽 Popular Mechanics at Fandom's Muppet wiki
