After another tiny break between episodes, TIYPS is back on track with this week's pilot, SILICON VALLEY. New pal Kate and I discuss the representation of women in this male-dominated tech comedy, the ways in which technology infiltrates our lives...

We made it to our 10th episode! And I'm celebrating it by covering a show sentimentally (and geographically) close to my heart, GILMORE GIRLS. My co-pilot and I dissect the fast, snappy, highly referential dialogue, surprisingly nuanced emotional...

This weeks features our first ever ~panel of experts~ as co-pilots Rachel AND Jessica join me to talk about everybody's favorite sitcom, FRIENDS. A nice change of pace from the previous weeks' longwinded, denser episodes, we tackle the 'critical'...
