A Million Little TV Shows Podcast

124 - S10 EP07 - Loudermilk S02 Ep1-3

This week on A Million Little TV Shows, we’re catching up with everyone’s favourite grumpy truth-teller in Loudermilk Season 2, Episodes 1 through 3. Sam’s trying to keep it together — running his support group, dodging his past, and maybe (just maybe) getting his life in order. But with new group members, old habits, and his ever-growing list of personal hang-ups, progress is anything but linear. We break down the sharp writing, the offbeat charm of the ensemble cast, and how the show walks the line between heartfelt and hilariously abrasive. Come for the dry wit, stay for the emotional gut punches.Title:

123 - S10 EP06 - Friends From College S01 Ep1-4

This week on A Million Little TV Shows, we’re diving headfirst into the messy, hilarious, and painfully awkward world of Friends from College — covering Season 1, Episodes 1 through 4. Old flames, bad decisions, and even worse group dynamics set the tone as a tight-knit crew of Harvard alums reunites in New York and promptly remind us why nostalgia and adulthood don’t always mix. We unpack the tangled web of affairs, secret feelings, and wine-fueled disasters, asking the real questions: Is anyone here actually friends? Is this show a comedy, a tragedy, or both? And why can’t Ethan just make better choices? Tune in as we laugh, cringe, and maybe rage-spiral a little along the way.Title:

122 - S10 EP05 - Mindhunter S01 Ep8-10

In this week’s episode of A Million Little TV Shows, we dive deep into the haunting final chapters of Mindhunter Season 1. Join us as we unpack the psychological tension, crumbling relationships, and chilling confrontations that define Episodes 8 through 10.
 
From Holden’s increasingly unhinged descent into obsession to the BTK killer’s shadowy presence creeping closer, we explore how the season crescendos into a finale that’s as emotionally raw as it is terrifying. What does it cost to get inside a killer’s mind? And is Holden still in control — or has he crossed a line he can’t return from? Let’s talk FBI, fear, and fallout.

121 - S10 EP04 - Inside No 9 S09 Ep4-6

As Inside No. 9 charges into its final season’s home stretch, Episodes 4 through 6 continue to deliver genre-bending surprises, emotional jolts, and that uniquely melancholic undercurrent we’ve come to expect.
Episode 4 – “CTRL/ALT/ESC”An initially lighthearted escape-room setup morphs into something deeply disturbing. Patriarch Jason leads his family on a final bonding experience—a themed escape room—which ultimately becomes a harrowing platform for a chilling revelation. What begins with playful puzzles unfolds into an emotionally devastating twist. “CTRL/ALT/ESC is one of the most emotionally resonant episodes that Inside No. 9 has produced,” with critics highlighting its unusual blend of warmth and horror.
Episode 5 – “Curse of the Ninth”Stepping into Edwardian gothic horror, this episode is an elegant homage to M.R. James with a spectral superstition at its core—the belief that composers die before completing their ninth symphony. We follow piano tuner Jonah as he’s drawn into a haunting conspiracy involving a widowed patron and a deadly secret. Critics praised its bleak beauty and atmospheric weight, noting its commentary on art, creativity, and obsession.
Episode 6 – “Plodding On”The finale turns inward. Set at a wrap party for Inside No. 9, it’s a meta-tribute that layers emotion on top of reflection. Steve and Reece—creators and co-stars—navigate tensions, memories, and unresolved feelings amid appearances from past episode actors. Reviews called it a “genuinely poignant finale” and fitting conclusion to a show built on invention and intimacy.

120 - S10 EP03 - Mindhunter S01 Ep4-7

The deeper we go, the darker it gets. In Episodes 4 through 7 of Mindhunter, Holden and Bill’s little “experiment” starts picking up momentum—and picking apart their lives in the process.
This week, we’re breaking down the escalation: Holden sharpening his interview style (and maybe crossing more than a few ethical lines), Bill trying to keep his family together while diving into the ugliest corners of the human psyche, and Wendy staking her claim as the team’s quiet backbone. And yes—we have a lot to say about the unsettling ways Kemper continues to loom over all of it.
We also get into the infamous shoe scene (you know the one), how the show blurs the line between research and obsession, and whether Holden’s confidence is starting to look a little too much like danger.
It’s procedural. It’s psychological. It’s downright chilling. And somewhere between the interviews and the home lives, you realize: the monsters aren’t just behind bars. 🕵️‍♀️🖤🪓

119 - S10 EP02 - Inside No 9 S09 Ep1-3

We’re in the final act. Inside No. 9 ushers us into its last season, and the opening trio of episodes delivers the same uncanny mix of humour, horror, and that stubborn, lingering dread we love.
Episode 1: “Boo to a Goose” throws a cast of passengers into a stalled train carriage—what begins as creeping paranoia around a missing purse spirals into something altogether more dystopian and surreal, ending in a bone-chilling twist that makes you question who (or what) is actually seated beside you.
Episode 2: “The Trolley Problem” strips things down to just two voices in a dimly lit room. What starts as a quiet therapy session between a desperate man and a well-meaning practitioner spirals into a chilling philosophical duel, exploring moral dilemmas with the weight—and fun—of a Hitchcockian duel.
Episode 3: “Mulberry Close” reframes suburban dread through the vantage of a doorbell cam, capturing judgment, suspicion, and paranoia through pixelated frames. One missing neighbour, a murdered dog, and perfectly timed false leads make this story pitch-perfect satire.
Through these episodes, Inside No. 9 reminds us why it’s spent nine seasons walking us back into our own blind spots—with laughter, mild discomfort, and that exquisite sense that nothing is as banal as it seems.

118 - S10 EP01 - Mindhunter S01 Ep1-3

We’re kicking off a brand-new season of A Million Little TV Shows Podcast with a deep dive into the shadowy world of Mindhunter—and trust us, it’s not light viewing.
In Episodes 1 through 3, we meet Holden and Bill, two FBI agents trying to bring psychology into criminal investigations, long before “serial killer” was even a household phrase. We’re talking about the unsettling interviews, the brilliant (and terrifying) Ed Kemper, and how the show makes conversations in beige rooms some of the most chilling TV you’ll ever watch.
Plus, we get into Holden’s obsession (red flag much?), Bill’s weariness, and Wendy’s arrival—aka the moment the team starts to feel complete. And of course, we ask the big question: how far can you go into the darkness without bringing it back with you?
It’s smart. It’s scary. And we may never look at an empty interview room the same way again. 🖤🕵️‍♂️🔪

Bonus Season 9 Outtakes

Even A Million Little TV Shows leave a million little bloopers. In this special bonus episode, I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing the moments that didn’t quite make the cut—flubbed lines, tangents that went nowhere, and laughs that went everywhere. It’s messy, it’s unpolished, and it’s a whole lot of fun. Think of it as the director’s blooper reel… but for your ears.
