The Toy Department – Episode 119
In Episode 119, Derek Madden and Matt Kolsky actually managed a semi-shortened episode, despite the topic list growing far beyond its original purview to include:
- Some on-air pre-production (0:55) re: next week’s plans for a Killing Eve pop-in…
- A brief discussion about the best shows on TV right now (2:30) and just how good Showtime’s Billions is…
- Kolsky’s new Cheers habit (8:50) and what a delightful tv comfort food that show makes…
- The news that Barack and Michelle Obama have partnered with Netflix (16:05) on a new production company that will make a variety of different things…
- The final mini-season of New Girl (22:10) and whether it was worth having…
- Ali Wong’s new comedy special on Netflix (29:30) and the apparent lack of growth in her comedy since her first special…
- Homework for next week (35:05), which will be an even SHORTER episode: just the Season 1 wrap-up for Killing Eve and a topic list for the following week…
- Some quick NBA thoughts (36:05) at the midway point of the conference finals…
