We're calling this one the homework assignment episode, because that's basically the theme for the whole thirty minutes. Episode 7, "Jordan Boys Legacy." Secon

Lanterns S1 EP6: Lights out

Last episode felt like a season finale. This one felt like a fart. That's basically the review of Episode 6, "Bad Optics." We fully closed the loop back to episode

Lanterns S1 E5: Lights Out

Lanterns S1 EP4: The Weenie

This week: Lanterns Episode 4, "The Weenie." Yes, that's the real title, and yes, we get into why. We think we're finally past the exposition stretch and into

Lanterns S1 EP3: OutKast

We were both lukewarm on last week's episode of Lanterns, and I've seen people online calling episode three the worst of the season. I think that's mostly

House of the Dragon S3.E5: Unbowed and Unbent

This week we discuss Episode 5 of House of the Dragon, "Unbowed and Unbent," and it might be the darkest one yet. We were right about Cole. The man is on a suicide missi

House of the Dragon, Season 3 Episode 4: Tumbleton

This week we discuss Episode 4 of House of the Dragon, the second plot-building episode in a row, the payoff later is going to be worth it. We finally meet Alicent'

House of the Dragon S3. E3: Rhaenyra Triumphant

No big battles this week — just pure political chess, and honestly? It might be the most intense episode of the season so far. Josh and Jeff break down Rhaenyra's im

House of the Dragon S3.E2: Queen's Landing

House of the Dragon just had its best-rated episode of the season — and we couldn't not talk about it. Episode 2, "Queen's Landing," really got us. We're
