Our long hiatus is over! Just in time for everyone to be revisiting this masterpiece with HBO Max, we conclude our return to Mad Men in a packed 2-parter finale, starting with Season 7 Part One: The Beginning. (Rec. 5/25/25)

Come for our excavation into the beguiling final episodes of Don's journey, stay for 30 minutes of us crying about Elizabeth Hofstadt Draper Francis.

Cutler! Gleason! Chaough! Oh my! Season 6 sees yet another shakeup for the agency, as marriages are tested, vices go unchecked, and children are forced to mature too quickly. And of course, the one and only Linda Cardellini.

Zou Bisou Bisou babes! It's our richest (aka longest) Mad Men retrospective yet. From Betty's transformation, to Joan's powerful choices, to the tragedy of Layne Price, Carl and Kate agree that Season 5 is Mad Men at its absolute best, and that's saying something.

Enter the era of SCDP! But a brand new office and firm isn't enough to keep Don from spinning out. Kate and Carl unpack this transitional season that offers some of the series' most poignant moments.

Bye Bye Birdie, Hello 1963! We dive into the fever dreams of Mad Men's third season, from Betty's pregnancy hallucinations to the nightmare of Roger's Derby Day party and everything in between.

Dust off your copies of Frank O'Hara and Sylvia Plath, it's time for Mad Men season two! Equestrian Betty! California Don! And sweet, beloved Chauncey. As always, Kate and Carl have too much to say about the richest text in TV history.

We're back! And we're changing things up. Broadcast Revisited returns for an epic 8-part series, revisiting the AMC masterpiece MAD MEN (2007-2015). Long considered Kate and Carl's favorite TV show of all time, join us the first Monday of every month as we rewatch all 8 seasons of Don, Peggy, Pete, Joan, and the whole gang.

It's that time of year again--and just under the wire! Kate and Carl bring you their Will Wins, Should Wins, Could Wins for this year's Emmys contenders. Will Abbott Elementary unseat Ted Lasso? Will Melanie Lynskey get her due? Will Jessica Chastain pull an upset in a category for which she is not nominated? Let's speculate wildly!

Bonus episode! Kate is joined once again by Queer Movie Night co-host extraordinaire Deb Duncan and the internet's very own Janie Bryant to discuss the new gem of a series, A League of Their Own, streaming on Prime Video. Created by Abbi Jacobson and Will Graham, this series explores hidden histories with dignity and joy, all set against the backdrop of the world so lovingly introduced by Penny Marshall's 1992 film.

CW: Mentions of suicide. Kate and Carl revisit this meditative HBO miniseries from 2014. Directed by Lisa Cholodenko, based on the novel by Elizabeth Strout, Frances McDormand stars as a complicated Maine woman trying to find some meaning in this life as she navigates marriage, motherhood, and mental illness across 25 years in her seaside town.

This week, Kate and Carl return to the Ryan Murphy multiverse with the second installment of American Crime Story, about the 1997 murder of fashion designer Gianni Versace by the serial killer Andrew Cunanan. In this operatic 2018 miniseries, Darren Criss stars as Cunanan with an ensemble featuring Edgar Ramirez, Ricky Martin, Finn Witrock, Judith Light, and Penelope Cruz as Donatella Versace.

An unexpected two-for-one episode! Kate and Carl sit down to discuss the 2009 BBC Wuthering Heights and end up spending just as much time discussing season 1 of the BBC/HBO series Gentleman Jack (and plenty else). Consider it the Byronic Heroes episode!

In Part 2, Kate and Carl discuss the complicated relationship between Alex and Regina and how the series succeeds in exposing the many flawed systems that make it cost so much to be poor in this country.

This week, Carl and Kate look back only a few months to the 2021 Netflix hit, MAID. Inspired by Stephanie Land's memoir of the same name, starring Margaret Qualley and Andie MacDowell, this miniseries offers a frank portrait of American poverty and one woman's perseverance to build a better life.
