That Episode Was… amazing, insane, ugh-terrible, glorious, delightful, sooooo disappointing, the best thing I’ve ever seen, ... *chef's kiss*! We all want our thoughts to be heard about the newest episode of whatever show it is we're watching. Social media is a deluge of quick opinions and hot takes.


That Episode Was… is our series of watercooler discussions about currently airing TV shows in which we dig a little deeper, this time focusing on Season 1 of FX-on-Hulu's Y: THE LAST MAN. Developed for television by Eliza Clark and based on the classic comic book series from Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra, Y: THE LAST MAN follows escape artist Yorick Brown after an apocalyptic event leaves him as the world's only remaining human with a Y chromosome.


This installment covers the show's 10th and final episode of season one, "Victoria".


With special guests Tilly Bridges (writer of hope-fueled sci-fi) and Jack Knoxville (founder, Trans Empowerment Project), POPSKL brings their professional creative backgrounds to this lively and thoughtful examination, the co-hosts of POPSKL share their immediate reactions to this new world and its characters. They discuss the parallels with the source material and the differences, offering perspectives, hot takes, and recommendations. Opinions fly and spoilers abound so be sure to watch each episode before tuning in! Find us here when you’re ready, and let us know what you thought That Episode Was...
