It’s been a very political week here in the United States, so what a happy coincidence that The Crown returned for season three this week as well. Noel and Kate give their thoughts on the new cast and how the show is tackling the challenges of adapting such high-profile events and figures as they break down the season in the spotlight section. Before that, though, there’s plenty of TV to discuss in Our Week in TV. They kick things off with comedy, including Chiijohn and the Last Week Tonight with John Oliver finale, another strong Chihayafuru, and the fall finale of The Good Place. Then Kate has some non-spoilery thoughts on the Drag Race UK finale and Noel sings the praises of the character specificity on Emergence. Next it’s over to superhero TV, with thoughts on Lena’s heel turn on Supergirl and another blast from the past on Arrow, before wrapping up the week with the Looking Glass-centric episode of Watchmen. Take a listen, then reach out with your thoughts on The Crown, the week’s TV, and more.
