It's time to talk about the episode that is second last in Falcon and The Winter Soldier's roster, but number one in our hearts.
"Truth" is a phenomenal penultimate that showcases everything we love about this spin-off and everything we want Bucky and Sam's solo journey to be. We're talking domestic Winter Soldier, plot-thickening training montages, freaking Julia Louis-Dreyfus, bonding on a boat, and flirting — so much damn flirting! This blissful character study explores the darker legacy of Captain America while paving the way for a greater version of the mantle to take the stage. It's a superhero off-duty special we've yet to stop talking about.
This episode doesn't stop there! We also dive into the nostalgia of SDCC circa 2019, Netflix's inability to renew Julie and The Phantoms, Alicia's deep dislike for The Devil All the Time, and the legacy of Sense8 with special guest Shadia Omer (Den of Geek, Guilt-Free TV).
