The Watch

About
Chris opens the show by reacting to the news that Paramount is mounting a hostile takeover in the wake of Netflix’s Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition (1:00). He is then joined by Timothy Simons to talk about the Golden Globes nominations and why the awards show can still platform lesser-known titles (4:15). Along the way, Tim runs through everything he’s been watching, including recent ‘Succession’ and ‘Girls’ rewatches (14:55). Later, they discuss the degree of difficulty required to pull off what Rhea Seehorn is doing on ‘Pluribus,’ the show’s biggest fan theories (29:52), and ‘Landman’ S2E4 (48:34).
