3x02 "Blunt Force Drama"




This week Craig hits the ‘rewind’ button on the third episode of the new Twilight Zone and, well… the third time’s the charm, as they say. With “Replay,” the series (mostly) overcomes its rocky start and presents a worthwhile--- and important--- episode about the black experience in America…. and not from a historical standpoint, either. This is NOW. This is REAL. There’s less humor this week than usual, which is completely appropriate.

3x01 "Banana Peele"

 

Left turn! Host Craig suspends his plan to resume covering the first season of the classic Twilight Zone series to instead dive head-first into the first season of the brand new Twilight Zone series from Jordan Peele. This week he gazes suspiciously at the first two episodes (“The Comedian” and “Nightmare at 30,000 Feet”) and shares his knee-jerk reactions with little preparation or time to truly reflect in a meaningful fashion. Are the new episodes worth checking out? You’ll have to listen to get the full scoop.
