Welcome to the first full episode of the TV Is Good podcast, co-hosted by me and Kathryn VanArendonk! In case you missed last week's announcement, here's the lowdown on the show:
Alan Sepinwall
In this week's episode, Kathryn and I offer our impressions of Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, a new Apple TV series starring the great Tatiana Maslany as a divorced mom who gets mixed up in all kinds of shadiness after starting a virtual relationship with a camboy. We then used that as an excuse to talk about the classic Showtime comedy Weeds, and the checkered history of TV Moms Do Crime. You can watch the episode on YouTube:
You can stream it right here:
Or you can subscribe to TV Is Good wherever you get your podcasts. All the links are here, including an RSS feed if your service or app won't automatically set you up with it:
No homework for next week's show, where we'll be talking about Star City, the new For All Mankind spinoff about the early days of the Soviet space program. And since Ronald D. Moore co-created both of those shows, Kathryn will attempt to get me up to speed on everything that's happened on Moore's Outlander since I stopped watching at the end of the time travel romantic drama's first season.
The podcast also has its own social media accounts on Instagram, BlueSky, Threads, and TikTok. We will be launching our Patreon on June 1, with a bonus deep dive episode per month. More details on that at the end of next Monday's show.
