In this episode, we’ll take a look at two mid-season network sitcoms: Not Dead Yet on ABC and American Auto on NBC. "But that’s not all.

#26 – SNL (Season 48 Premier)
Release Date: 10/04/2022
Description: After months of speculation the new season of Saturday Night Live is here and we’re ready to share our unsolicited thoughts and feelings like a certain purple McDonald’s mascot. Yes, those nine absences in the opening credits were a shock (don’t worry, Cecily Strong will be back!), but… guess what? They kind of owned it! And one of the new guys got the Pete Davidson slot on Weekend Update! And then, there were the sponsored sketches… But we’re getting ahead of ourselves, because this special edition of Streamageddon kicks off with BREAKING-ish NEWS in the late night comedy world: The Daily Show is beginning its search for host #4 after Trevor Noah stunned his audience (and reportedly his bosses at Paramount) by announcing his retirement after 7 years on the job. We’re breaking down all the news about the fake news (the good kind) this week, and if that sounds intimidating just relax, because Dianne already made Chris cut his 30-minute rant about the clashing serifs in the new SNL fonts so you have nothing to fear! ——— 📺 Review: SNL (Season 48 Premier) Featuring: Miles Teller and Kendrick Lamar Where to Watch: NBC Where to Stream: Peacock! ——— 🔗 Links: Trevor Noah’s Moment of Zen – Matthew Belloni, Puck News 'The Daily Show' Will Continue (on Comedy Central) Without Trevor Noah - The Hollywood Reporter – Lesley Goldberg, The Hollywood Reporter Miles Teller Makes Himself at Home as Saturday Night Live’s 48th Season Gets Off to a Wobbly Start – Rosa Sofia Kaminski, Paste Magazine After a major cast shake-up, 'SNL' confronts its weaknesses — but can't overcome them - Los Angeles Times – Lorraine Ali, The L.A.
