Description

We couldn't decide which headline show to cover for EHG 270, so we set our shot clocks to eight minutes each for three: Survivor's 39th (!) season, with an idolatrous twist; new sitcom Sunnyside, starring Kal Penn as a disgraced city councilman; and semi-charming, SUPER-piloty PI/PTSD drama Stumptown. Will any of us keep watching any of these? Can we, when a couple of them already pulled basement-ish ratings? Later, we went Around The Dial with Bissinger doc Buzz, Perfect Harmony, The Challenge, and Below Deck Med before Kim brought us back to Survivor and fans vs. favorites with her Canon presentation. Moriarty's a winner, Ray Lewis is a loser, and we explored not-that-secret identities in Game Time. Behold the giant wooden busts of your panel: it's an all-new Extra Hot Great.SHOW TOPICSSurvivorStumptownSunnysidePerfect HarmonyBuzzThe ChallengeBelow Deck MediterraneanThe Canon: Survivor S16.E13: If It Smells Like A Rat, Give It Cheese Winner and Loser of the WeekGame Time: Also Known AsSHOW NOTESWe're @extrahotgreat on InstagramSunnyside's low ratingsGQ on Bissinger's shopaholismSweet Smell Of SuccessionKim Reed on TwitterSarah's Primetimer author pageDalton Ross's oral history of Erik's blindsidePhoto: Amazon StudiosDISCUSSIONTalk about this episode on its dedicated page on ExtraHotGreat.comSUPPORT EHG ON PATREONThe EHG gang have been recording this podcast for almost a decade now. In podcasting terms, that makes us positively Methuselahian. Since the start of EHG, our listeners have asked if we had a tip jar or donation system and we'd look at each other and say surely that is a joke, people don't pay other people to do podcasts. We'd email them back "Ha ha ha, good one, Chet" and go about our business. Now we are told this is a real thing that real nice people do. Value for value? In today's topsy-turvy world? It's madness but that good kind of madness, like when you wake up a 3:15am and clean your house. Or something. In all seriousness, we are humbled by your continued prodding to get a Patreon page up for EHG and here it is! Extra Hot Great on Patreon For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
