Comfort Shows and TV That Says Something: 'Rooster,' 'Lord of the Flies,' and 'Widow's Bay'

This week, Blaine gives an overview and a welcome to begin (0:02) before introducing the hosts (0:43).


This week, they begin with non-spoilers as usual, including brief thoughts on 'Margo's Got Money Troubles' on Apple TV (1:17). From there, they get into the season of 'Rooster' on HBO without spoiling (2:26) and then the new Netflix miniseries 'Lord of the Flies' (13:10). For the last of non-spoilers, they discuss the Apple TV series 'Widow's Bay' and how it's doing (18:22).


In spoilers, they begin with 'Rooster' and its season as a whole (21:38) before moving into the intensity of 'Lord of the Flies' (38:10). Finally, the episode ends with the fourth episode of 'Widow's Bay,' titled "Beach Read" (55:17).
