It’s finally here, the last podcast episode before our hiatus. Noel and Kate do their best to keep it together as they talk through another full week in TV, then head over to the DVD Shelf for one of the quintessential Televerse shows, CBS’s lamentably short-lived Limitless. We kick off Our Week in TV with a little comedy, with Noel checking in on Peacock’s Girls5eva season one and Kate sharing her thoughts on the Tuca & Bertie premiere. Then we luxuriate in another terrific Top Chef: Portland before celebrating a welcome return on Star Wars: The Bad Batch and heading to our superhero roundup. Loki has fun with jet skis and time travel, Batwoman unveils its new Kate Kane, Superman & Lois continues to drop mythology bombs, and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow wants a bigger reaction than maybe we’re willing to give it. Afterward, it’s time to revisit Limitless—does it hold up as well as we remember? Tune in for our thoughts, then reach out with your takes on this week’s TV, Limitless, and whatever strikes your fancy over our hiatus. Thank you to our wonderful guests, friends of the pod, and listeners. We hope you’ve enjoyed the show, because we’ve certainly enjoyed making it. Until we’re back!
