The Televerse #470- Spotlight on Great Pretender Season 1

We’re heading into what would usually be fall premiere season, but with most shows remaining on hiatus, it’s streamers and back catalogs to the TV rescue. After talking a little news, Noel and Kate head to Our Week in TV. First Kate has some spoiler-free thoughts on Canada’s Drag Race and catches up with Skin Wars and Skin Wars: Fresh Paint, then Noel checks in with Aggretsuko season three, we both talk Danbury and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and The Vow, Kate is mixed on Doom Patrol and shares a few thoughts on Wynonna Earp’s midseason finale, and Lovecraft Country spins a disturbing ghost story. Then we move to the spotlight section to enjoy some con and heist energy with the first part of Netflix’s Great Pretender. Tune in for our thoughts, then reach out with your take on the week’s TV.

Errata: When discussing Doom Patrol, Kate refers to Diane Guerrero as Danielle Guerrero. The Televerse regrets the error!
