On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, with Ted Lasso, Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Barry, Succession, and so many others ending their TV runs at the height of their success, we decided to dive into the concept of these shortened TV seasons. Do we love them? Do me miss the days of 10 years worth of 22 episodes every year? It's a deeper conversation than you would think. 

Also this week, we take a look at the MAX rebranding a couple weeks in, this recent surge of cliffhangers in theaters, our spoiler-free reviews of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster, and our game: Let's Do It Better!
