In s02e10 of Cruel Summer, we’re finally free. The “mystery” was resolved in the most boring and predictable way possible, and the audience is left to ponder who we were supposed to be rooting for this whole time anyway?

In s02e09 of Cruel Summer, we are treated (subjected) to a bunch of extended flashbacks featuring the show’s worst, least interesting character: nepo Luke. Oh boy. Did you know that he had a distant relationship with his controlling father, and that ... more

  • Better than the actual show (season 2)

    I loved listening to James & Marco's breakdowns of the season 1 episodes and was desperately hoping for a season 2 podcast. So glad they returned because their commentary does not disappoint!

  • all caught up

    I loved listening to this show after catching up on Bros Watch PLL Too. I loved season 1 of Cruel Summer but I haven’t heard good things about season 2, so I’ve been following the season 2 story through this podcast. I might just binge the show after the Bros finish it but I haven’t made my mind up yet….. also Marco Sparks’ Debbie digs crack me up

  • No one said “endgame” in the 90’s

    I bonded with these guys with the downfall of the Original Sin series. Now I am bonding with them through a disappointing season of Cruel Summer. I tend to agree with Benjamin Light on everything except his views on punctuation. Season 2 is historically inaccurate and boring. It’s nice to hear someone else talk about it.

  • Had frustrations with season 1; love season 2

    Unfortunately for the bros, my favorite episodes are when they’re critiquing a show for sloppy storytelling and bad writing. more
