    The Incomparable Mothership 735: Who Took My Lady?
    Sep 27 2024
    Miyazaki Club returns to discuss 2010’s “The Secret World of Arrietty,” a Studio Ghibli production with a screenplay by Hayao Miyazaki based on a series of children’s books. Why are we so unnerved by the linear storyline and lack of weirdness? Why does Jason have Bay Leaf head canon? And why is surface tension the true star of the show?

    Jason Snell with Steve Lutz, Moisés Chiullán, John Siracusa and Aleen Simms.

  • Sorkin' In It 3.22: What Kind of Day Has It Been (Studio 60 Episode 22)

    Sorkin' In It 3.22: What Kind of Day Has It Been (Studio 60 Episode 22)
    Sep 27 2024
    Wipe away those tears, the series finale of Studio 60 is upon us. We’re in K&R part 17 by our count: Tom’s brother remains in peril. As does Jordan. And, sigh, somehow Matt & Harriett’s relationship. But, hey, it’s a finale, and fan service abounds. We promise. Stick with it. We take as long to discuss the final episode as it takes to watch it. And, in true Sorkin fashion, we talk about What’s Next.

    Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

    A guy in a blue sedan. A man with gold teeth. A woman (Marcia Wallace!) has come to Hawaii searching for her missing fiancé. Sounds like the plot to a good ol’ detective show, but forget all that—instead, it’s time to train for the Ironman Triathlon!

    Jason Snell, Philip Michaels and David J. Loehr.
