Eyes on Screen

by Second Look Media

From the team behind Eyes on Gilead: The Handmaid’s Tale Companion, the award-winning podcast known for deep-dive analysis and sharp observations, comes a new weekly TV and film podcast: Eyes on Screen. Hosted by Fiona Williams, Sana Qadar, Haidee Ireland and Natalie Hambly, this is a new independent show, and the next chapter for the team known for watching closely, a bit obsessively, and always with plenty to say. As The Handmaid’s Tale expands into The Testaments, we’ll be following along week by week with episode recaps, analysis and yes, dubious predictions. Alongside that, Eyes on Screen covers new TV shows, movie releases and what to watch next, as well as older favourites worth revisiting. Each week we talk through storytelling, performance, cinematography, score and the details that make a show or film work, mixing analysis with conversation, a few theories, and the kind of thoughts that come from watching something with other people who notice everything. We’ll also be speaking with cast and creators, sharing interviews and insider insight to deepen the connection to the TV shows and movies we love, and explore how they’re made behind the scenes. Because sometimes the best part of watching something is having someone to talk about it with. If you’re looking for thoughtful TV and film discussion, episode breakdowns and reviews, or a TV and film podcast that helps you decide what to watch next, this is for you. If you’re into The Testaments, TV recap podcasts, film analysis, movie reviews, or just hearing people unpack what they’ve watched in a way that feels like you're catching up with friends, you’ll feel right at home. For returning Eyes on Gilead listeners, welcome back. For new listeners, you can jump in anywhere. New episodes weekly. Follow along on Instagram @eyesonscreenpod for updates and more. Watching closely, talking it through, and enjoying the conversation along the way: This is Eyes On Screen. Eyes on Screen is a Second Look Media production. Theme music: Ashley Jane and Timon Wientzek Photography: Ashley Mar / Design: Fiona Williams Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I look forward to your episodes every week and listen immediately after finishing viewing the TV show. Love your analysis, research, and attention to detail on plot, character development, cinematography, artwork, and more — better than any other podcast about this show. Keep up the fabulous work!

Emily0054 · May 2026

These brilliant women help me both understand and enjoy tv more deeply. I feel smarter after listening. And they are fun & funny to boot. Every episode is a treat!

LauraRoslin47 · May 2026

What a great discussion, easy to listen to with great insights! Hands down better than all the others. However, some episodes tend to drift away from the show and then it’s tons of laughing on and on. Nice to hear them having a good time but it’s not enjoyable to have all the cackling blaring in your ear, or laughing that sounds like someone is choking. Would be even better if they stayed on topic

user789!! · Apr 2026

First found the ladies of Eyes on Screen when they covered The Handmaids Tale on a podcast called Eyes on Gilead. I was so happy to find them here now, covering The Testaments and can’t wait to follow along on whatever they cover next! Such thoughtful discussions and interviews!
