The Televerse #459- Spotlight on Top Boy: Summerhouse Season 1

The TV offerings are starting to dry up, but this week on the podcast, reality more than picked up the slack. We kick off the episode with our week in TV, starting with the comedy, drama, and genre shows: One Day at a Time’s animated special, the Quiz finale, and Stargirl and Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD. Then we move to reality, including the Don’t premiere, The Floor is Lava season one, Holey Moley II: The Sequel, RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, Legendary, and the Top Chef: All-Stars L.A. finale. Afterward, we head to the spotlight section and dive in with season one of Channel 4’s Top Boy, which has been retitled on Netflix as Top Boy: Summerhouse. Reach out with your thoughts on Top Boy and the week’s TV, particularly any reality that we somehow missed.
