SW: Ep VII TFA Part 2 - Melissa argues that the most frustrating aspect of this movie is that its strongest components are the ones not stolen from A New Hope, and she longs for a version of the film that had the ambition to tell an original story. And Maggie confuses Darth Vader and Darth Maul.

ITB Ep 105 - Given that this is the second-to-last episode of a season, “Snake Creeps Down” doesn’t have any of the answers you might expect, because much like Quinn in this episode, Into the Badlands has stretched itself too thin in its ambition.

ITB Ep 104 - Maggie and Melissa discuss “Two Tigers Subdue Dragon” of Into the Badlands. Ryder cannot get any dumber, but at least the show continues to plod along so that it’s enjoyable enough.

ITB Ep 103 - As Maggie and Melissa tackle “White Stork Spreads Wings” of Into the Badlands, they compare Firefly to Vine, spend way too much time discussing the word “wicking” and decide that nothing makes sense in the Badlands.

ITB Ep 102 - Maggie and Melissa discuss "Fist Like a Bullet" and admire the set design of Into the Badlands, but when the set design is far superior to the world building, there's probably a problem.
