In today's show, we review episodes 1 & 2 of "."
Our takes today...
Mimi thinks “Egg” is the “O-Dog” in this “Menace II Society” buddy comedy; it's "Ser Arlan 'Big D'" what they call him; we need more night time jousts; this show is not must see TV like other Game of Thrones franchises but fun enough.
Also, the characters from Euphoria should all have mortgages by now and we didn’t like “One Battle After Another,” (sorry not sorry).
