🎬🩺 In this episode of The Rank Podcast, John returns to his Sitcom Rankings with a look at the 2025 comedy series The Studio, starring Seth Rogen. This week, he breaks down Episode 6 – “The Pediatric Oncologist,” where the writers' room faces its most awkward challenge yet: how do you include a pediatric oncologist in a sitcom... and still make it funny?
As egos clash and moral panic sets in, the team spirals into absurdity trying to strike the right tone—leading to some of the most hilariously uncomfortable moments of the series so far. John explores how this episode walks the tightrope between comedy and discomfort, and whether it pulls it off or crashes hard.
