This week, we kick off the HBO Max Showdown! We asked ourselves, "Should we cancel HBO Max?" and decided to make a challenge of finding shows good enough to keep it. In today's episode, Schmee introduces Riker to Barry (HBO MAX) with just the pilot episode, "Chapter One: Make Your Mark." We discuss how effectively the pilot established the genre for the show, introduced the characters, presented the plot for the season/series to come, and hooked us to watch more. Do not forget to send a cryptic email to [email protected] and forward the response to [email protected], and we will read it aloud in one of our episodes!

Follow us and let us know what you think!
