Summary

In this week’s episode, we discuss HBO's "Watchmen" episode 6 — one of the greatest examples of storytelling in TV history. Our takes... this episode was rich with layers from callbacks to Superman to the actual whitewashing of real-life Bass Reeves; MiMi recalls her own "Nostalgia pills" moment; Cal reminds us of a bad date; Will, June and Captain Metropolis have their own "entanglement"; and a Jon Snow/ Daenerys Targaryen connection only WE could make to the show.
