    The Best & Worst of 2025 Television

    Countdown #509   Just in time for the new year of film and television, Paul and Wayne return to begin their wrap up of the year that was 2025. And, as always, they begin with their lists of the best and worst of television!   Was it a banner year for TV? Will future generations look back and marvel at what we were able to watch from the comfort of our couches through 2025? Or is this one of those years that will slip into obscurity without anything to truly set it apart from the decades of television that came before it? Does the good outweigh the bad? Or is there more to lambast than there is to praise?   There's only one way to find out - at least, if you care about anything Wayne and Paul have to say - and that's to hit the play button and sit back to enjoy The Countdown, as it (intermittently!) continues...   Want more?

    Top 10 Books We Have Read

    Countdown #508   Novels. Graphic novels. Comics. Non-fiction books. Fantasy. Self-Help. Horror. Superhero. All types of books and genres are in play as the lads attempt to quantify the unquantifiable and countdown the very best books they both have read through to this point in their lives.   And you could not hope for more different lists. Prepare yourself for an episode without much in the way of outrage, derision, snorts of disbelief, or rueful chuckles at what might have been, as Wayne has read only two on Paul's list and Paul has read none of what Wayne is putting out there.   So get ready to add to your TBR Pile, as The Countdown stutters but resumes!   Want more?
