A little competition never hurt anyone.

What's more fun than talking about a show you love? Fighting about it!
Will Brittany ever win a recap? Will the show ever be more woke than it is joke? Just how problematic IS the writing? Which burnout burns the best?

Check in every week to see the metrics we debated in the podcast...


30-SECOND RECAP

 

WOKE or JOKE?


C'est problématique...

The problem with history is that hindsight is 20/20.

Social norms in 1976 looked backwards and ignorant in 1998, and the kinds of jokes made in 1998 are blatantly offensive in 2018.

So what's a woke cultural appreciator to do?

We at the Showdown believe that the only way to enjoy a thing that is riddled with problems is to call it out for its messiness, and critique it mercilessly in the name of love.

Take your standard scale of one to ten, jack it up to eleven for the truly egregious, and what you get are the metrics below.
