Extra Hot Great: This Week In TV

As Game Of Thrones returns from hiatus, and moves beyond the books, the gang plus Jeff and Nick talked about Jon Snow, Crone Castle, and what's next for the Starks. We went around the dial with Better Call Saul, Valleys Silicon and Happy, Houdini & Doyle, Project Runway All-Stars, and the National Enquirer before putting Angie's 30 Rock Canon submission under a "Black Light." Humans? Heard of 'em (they're winners), whoever has to retitle Live With Someone and Maybe Kelly is a loser, and Rib Hurtmann changed a few things in this week's Game Time. Don't lose us in the tall grass; it's an all-new Extra Hot Great.TOPICSLead Topic: 🪶 Game Of Thrones Around The Dial: 💼 Better Call Saul Around The Dial: 🚨 Happy Valley Around The Dial: 🪄 Houdini & Doyle Around The Dial: 🖥 Silicon Valley Around The Dial: 🧵 Project Runway All Stars The Canon: 📺 30 Rock Winner & Loser: 👍 Humans Winner & Loser: 👎 Live With Michael And Kelly Game Time: 🧠 TV TyposNOTES🗒 Full episode notes can be found on the episode 114 page on ExtraHotGreat.com🐦 Jeff Drake on Twitter🐦 Nick Rheinwald-Jones on Twitter🌴 The Again With This podcast

Sarah D. Bunting is back from baseballing, and Stephanie Cangro is back to discuss the final season of American Idol, the Idol farewell, and what it all meant to us as a culture. Liv and a sugar high told us about Face Off and My Little Pony, and we went around the dial with Togetherness, true crime, dance shows, try-hards, and a creepy deodorant ad. Was Stephanie's I Love Lucy Canon TOO classic? Should Martin Sheen consider shutting up? And why did Sarah get Rickie Vasquez and a Nats catcher mixed up? Don't wait until after an ad break to find out with an all-new, unpitchy Extra Hot Great.TOPICSLead Topic: 🎶 American Idol None: 💄 Face Off Around The Dial: 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Togetherness Around The Dial: 🔪 The Case Of JonBenet RamseyAround The Dial: 💃 So You Think You Can Dance Around The Dial: 🏈 American Crime Story The People Vs.

After David T. Cole died, then came back to life as befitting the Easter weekend, Jeff Alexander sat down with the gang to discuss the second season of Daredevil, Joe's issues with Jon Bernthal, why a character based IN NEW YORK CITY can't just be Irish already, and whether any of us will be back for S3. After Liv's candy high took us through Face Off and Buntsy thumbs-upped the original Helter Skelter TV movie, we checked in with Married At First Sight: The First Year, Untucked, the Flash/Supergirl crossover, and The Real O'Neals. The Tick was a winner, the world's first supermodel was a loser, and Tom & Dick & Harry & Jane & Kate & Mary inspired a hotly-contested Game Time -- or, as Sarah's cold would have it, "Gabe Tibe." (Sorry about that, guys.) Did Jeff's mid-Office submission "win" admission to the Nonac? Does Foggy need a haircut? The answers to all these questions, plus something about a bear attack, in an all-new extra-crunchy Extra Hot Great.TOPICSLead Topic: 🕶 Daredevil None: 💄 Face Off The Blotter Presents: 🔪 Helter Skelter Around The Dial: 💍 Married At First Sight Around The Dial: ⚡️ SupergirlThe Flash Around The Dial: 🏳️‍🌈 The Real O'Neals Around The Dial: 💋 Untucked The Canon: 📑 The Office (US) Winner & Loser: 👍 The Tick (2016) Peter SerafinowiczWinner & Loser: 👎 Janice DickinsonGame Time: 🧠 Tom, Dick, Or Harry; Jane, Kate, Or Mary?NOTES🗒 Full episode notes can be found on the episode 110 page on ExtraHotGreat.com🐦 Jeff Alexander on Twitter🖥 Joe on Decider🎶 Mark And Sarah Talk About Songs

Tradecraft enthusiast Nick Rheinwald-Jones creeps back onto the podcast under cover of night to talk about the Season 4 premiere of The Americans. We break with tradition to let Dave interview Liv about the latest episode of Face Off, and ponder whether the jazz at the jazz club in House Of Cards is worse than jazz. Around The Dial stops at Royal Pains, Not Safe With Nikki Glaser, the pre-Crazy Ex-Girlfriend YouTube clips of Rachel Bloom, Bosch, and another racist TV ad from the '80s. Nick makes the case for the induction of the "4 Days Out" episode of Breaking Bad to the Canon, and then after naming the week's Winner and Loser, it's on to a starchy Game Time. Go dark (to the rest of the world) and enjoy!
