Ep. 46 - Is This 'Skeleton Crew' Enough to Make 'Star Wars' Fly Again?

David and Patrick discuss what’s happening in the world of TV, then dive into the season premiere of Skeleton Crew.

The creator of Arcane has responded to criticisms of the second season. What do we make of his reaction? Are we happy about the new culture of recording footage off of movie screens? Is Skeleton Crew the shot in the arm Star Wars needs at this moment? Will Patrick finally have to watch the first two seasons of Euphoria? Listen to hear us discuss all these questions and more.
