The Good, The Bad, and 'The White Lotus' Finale; Plus, a Plethora of TV

from Taking It Down

Blaine, Adam, and Donovan gather together again before a week off. As always, the episode begins with a section devoted to non-spoilers: Blaine offers a welcome and some episode notes for the week (0:02). After Adam and Donovan join, the three discuss the deluge of television choices that seem high quality and how you could easily see Adam in person in a few months (2:13). Though 'Black Mirror' dropped a new season this weekend, the hosts ponder if its time has come and gone (4:09). Blaine asks Donovan about the lingering images of 'Adolescence' without spoilers as well as the news about it being a part of education (5:46). In a funny moment, Adam admits that the new Apple TV+ show 'The Studio' fills him with anxiety (8:53). Donovan and Adam give ideas on why they enjoy 'Hacks' on Max so much as it returns for its new season (12:49). It's an easy sell, but Blaine hooks the two co-hosts on the other new Apple TV+ series, 'Your Friends and Neighbors,' starring Jon Hamm (16:57). Lastly in the opening segment, they touch on 'The White Lotus' and its recent season (22:39). After a break, Blaine has a quick question on 'Hacks' that could be a spoiler (26:28) before they complete a character-by-character critique of 'The White Lotus' and its third season as well as a quick ranking of the three seasons (27:22).
