In this week's episode, the gang is all here and we're discussing Margaret's Good One/Bad One Picks: The Buccaneers (good, theoretically) and The Irrational (bad, verily). In the episode, we mention this sweater:
  
And also, somehow, against all odds, Mpreg Clippy, which I have linked in case any of you are self-loathing enough to wish to pollute your brain with his visage. We will be back NEXT WEEK to discuss Kathryn's GOBO: The Curse (good) and Lawmen: Bass Reeves (bad). We hope you come back despite mpreg Clippy, but understand if that was simply a bridge too far. 

Listener beware, you're in for a scare! This week we watch a horrifying scream-filled nightmare of a television episode, where characters toy with forces beyond their comprehension and exhume corpses that would best be left alone. We are, of course, referring to the Frasier reboot. We also watch the first episode of the new Goosebumps show, which is fine. 

We're back again! This time with a "Fall 2023" edition of Good One Bad One, which we started recording pretty late in the season and have finally gotten around to releasing even later. (November hit hard this year, listener.) 
We've got a great lineup for you this season! Presenting the Good Ones:
Apple TV+'s The Buccaneers
Hulu's Goosebumps
Showtime's The Curse
And, of course, our formidable Bad Ones:
Paramount+'s Frasier reboot
NBC's The Irrational
Paramount+'s Lawmen: Bass Reeves

In which we finish our miniseries on Citadel and attempt to wrestle with what, exactly, we have brought upon ourselves. 

Is watching this show not unlike descending into pure mindless sensation? Like a sensory deprivation tank, but as a TV show? Also why on earth does the Priyanka Chopra-Jonas character make these choices?! They're such bad choices! 

Extra Hot Great co-host and TV critic extraordinaire Tara Ariano parachutes into our Citadel series this week, to help us break down exactly what is going on in all these flashback sequences where characters look and act exactly the same way they do in the "present day." This episode moves the season's main story forward by roughly 37 seconds.
