Today’s big question: When does a show know what it is?
Phil and Ben break down some of their recent/favorite shows to find out whether they really understand the tone, direction and ambition they are aiming for. What’s the result when they do understand? More interestingly, what about when they don’t?
Phil’s discusses How I Met Your Father for WAYWA and how it can be rewarding to stick with something that starts out so hopelessly not good.
