Mehr denn je verkommt Fernsehen für alle zu einer privaten Therapiestunde, wie sie Julia (@julia_milo) und ich (@dennisderdoedel) nach der dreistündigen Voll-Eskalation am Mittwoch definitiv benötigen. Im zweiten Teil der Sendung blicken wir auf die beiden vielleicht besten Produktionen von AppleTV+: Die Fußball-Comedy Ted Lasso sowie die Dokumentation Boys State. Wie weit darf Trash-TV gehen?
