Fauxworthy Podcast Episode 10: TV Deaths, “Master of None” and “Jessica Jones”

April 18, 2016 /

 

This week, Bryan and Taylor discuss TV’s recent inclination toward killing (or more often, fake-killing) main characters at the end of episodes. Slight spoilers for “Game of Thrones,” “The Leftovers” and “The Walking Dead” in that discussion (1:35-12:40). [BONUS WARNING: Taylor said a bad word. “The Leftovers” was so good this week, it robbed him of his speaking ability.] They also revisit “Master of None” after Taylor finished it over the weekend. Definitely spoilers in that discussion, so skip it if you don’t want to know what happens in that show (12:40-19:25). Finally, they briefly discuss Netflix’s latest Marvel series, “Jessica Jones,” and tease next week’s episode. No spoilers in that conversation (19:25-25:23). FauxworthyLogo

Next week, Malik Grady (@MalikG) will join us to take a deep dive on “Jessica Jones” and all things Comic Book TV. So be prepared for a fun episode.
