United States3 months ago - Best TV review podcast
Perfect podcast for TV lovers and so far the only one out there of its quality.
Even though they talk down to James Dyer too much and at some point it stops being funny and is just bullying, and every time they mention „true crime“ or „reality“ TV I want to cut my ears off and set my phone on fire.

Germany3 months ago - Terf friends
Several times they’ve called Amanda Abbington a “friend of the pod”, they wax lyrical about Gervais’s output (I think they’re also pals). And as soon as they start drooling over the new Potter series I’ll probably stop listening.

United Kingdom3 months ago - Sadly cancelled my plus subscription
Have been listening for years and a plus subscriber for I think 3 years. However, it has become so niche and political that it just doesn’t do what it says on the tin anymore. You will only hear the views you expect from each of the reviewers and only their niche preferences will be reviewed. Or appreciated. So I need to seek my recommendations elsewhere sadly.
Apple Podcasts2martiangentianUnited Kingdom4 months ago - Err… Who anybody?
This show is only good for knowing what’s coming up and to be fair it does have good (if very sycophantic) interviews). But if you want balanced reviews of shows look elsewhere as it’s absent here.
What I find most annoying is that we recently had to listen to Boyd wax lyrical about Dr. Who. This was annoying for several reasons not least that there is a loose mantra of not reviewing shows that are several seasons in and yet here we are at season 2/14/41 and it was mentioned weekly.
Boyd is cle... more
