Show notes
This week we’re chasing our Hollywood dreams with HBO’s Barry, which just returned to TV after 3 years where absolutely nothing noteworthy happened in the world. Get caught up (or meet Bill Hader’s Barry Berkman for the first time) as we break our review into two parts: First we’ll revisit the first episode from 2018 and talk about what makes it such a killer pilot, then we’ll dig into a spoiler-packed discussion of the first two episodes of Season 3. Plus, the latest on the Netflocalypse, a flurry of action from the newly-merged Warner Bros. Discovery (forever known as “WaBroDisco”), and a listener question about the future of streaming news caps off our in memoriam tribute to CNN+.———📺 Review: Barry🚨 Spoiler Alert for Season 1, Episode 1 (starting at 🚨 Spoiler Alert for Season 3, Episodes 1-2 (starting at Number of Seasons Overall: 3Where to Watch: HBOWhere to Stream: HBO Max———🔗 Links:CNN+ Streaming Service Will Shut Down Weeks After Its Start – Michael M.
