It’s been a challenging week, but thankfully, TV gave us plenty to distract, inspire, and entertain. Noel and Kate kick things off with their week in TV, starting with the comedies, including DuckTales, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, the finale of I’m Sorry, and catchups with Broad City and Better Things. Then we discuss the week’s reality, genre, and drama offerings, including the finale of Top Chef: Kentucky, Queer Eye season three, the premiere of Project Runway, a catchup with Star Trek: Discovery and brief look at Charmed, and the premiere of The Good Fight. Finally, we round out the podcast by diving in with Amazon Prime’s underwhelming Kate Beckinsale vehicle, The Widow.
