TV Avalanche Podcast, Episode 10: ‘Leftovers,’ ‘Veep,’ ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ And More

Welcome to episode 10 of our podcast, TV Avalanche, where Brian Grubb and I talk about the latest and most notable doings in TV, and tell stupid jokes along the way.

This week, we’ve got two big HBO premieres, with the final season of The Leftovers and the sixth season of Veep. From there, we discuss the return of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, try to figure out the ideal character pairings on a show that likes to mix-and-match, and Brian unveils his own version of the theme song. Then we move onto last week’s New Girl finale, the question of whether the show should continue past this season, and whether there’s another good hangout comedy on TV right now to take its place. And we close things out with a spoiler discussion of last week’s outstanding episode of The Americans, as what we intend to be a rotating segment discussing recent episodes of the best dramas of the moment.
