Yes, it’s February… but we finally made it happen. Nathan is joined by returning guest Mark Blitch to count down their Top TV Shows of 2025, from prestige heavy-hitters to pure comfort-watch chaos.
Along the way, they compare notes on what held up (and what fell off), talk legacy seasons (The Bear, The White Lotus), debate slow-burn patience tests (Pluribus), celebrate the beautifully unhinged brilliance of The Rehearsal and share a few curveballs.
Plus: honorable mentions, a few “what were they thinking?” disappointments and the shows they wish more people were watching.
