Shadow and Bone, The Mosquito Coast, and Bennifer??!? - a podcast by Criticism Is Dead
from 2021-05-04T09:00
We discuss Shadow and Bone, about a Chosen One coming to terms with her deeply held secret, and The Mosquito Coast, about a patriarch fleeing his.
05:53 Shadow and Bone, out on Netflix, manages to fill a fun fantasy-sized void in the TV landscape, in spite of its lackluster heroine.
24:11 The Mosquito Coast, streaming weekly on Apple TV+, is a high-octane drama that has the potential (hopefully?) to produce a new antihero à la Walter White, Tony Soprano, etc.
44:05 Plus, culture notes about our favorite Boston boy and Miss J.Lo, reunited.
P.S. CORRECTION: Jenny said Top Chef 2006 in the opening, but that season was NOT from 2006, it was from 2010. My bad!!!
