Description

Here’s the official Netflix synopsis for The Guilty: A troubled police detective assigned to 911 operator duty scrambles to save a distressed caller during a harrowing day of revelations – and reckonings. Dave and Justin both liked Jake Gyllenhaal’s excellent acting, vomiting, and held-in man crying. Justin wonders why the Scandinavians are obsessed with dead children. Dave calls 911 and speaks directly with Jake Gyllenhaal about Advil and Starbucks.
Justin's synopsis: Would you like to watch Jake Gyllenhaal talk on the phone for one and a half hours? No? What if I told you that you get to watch him cry and then vomit into a public toilet? Still no? What if I told you there was a dead baby involved. Still not sold? Your loss, sucker. Because these are all the ingredients for a compelling-ass movie!

Dave, Justin, and Ashley watch the #1 show on Netflix for the week and try to answer the question: why are people watching this? Comedy and consternation ensue as two agreeable middle-aged chaps and a punchy millennial from rural Canada are subjected to bizarre Korean sci-fi, graphic true crime documentaries, unnecessary medical dramas, baffling 90s sitcoms, and insufferable Hallmark Christmas films. Their honest reactions are filled with wit, insight, and that oh-so Canadian brand of wholesome irreverence and humble exasperation.
