Why Watch That Radio

TV’s all over the place! From season finales to renewals and cancellations, there’s been no shortage of things to talk about in TV land. So, the Critic and the Referee decided to weigh in. In this episode, they discuss the TV finales that they’ve seen so far. From Underground to Scandal, they’ve got it covered. In addition, they provide a fast-paced overview of TV shows that have been canceled or renewed. Which shows bit the bullet? And which shows are still going strong? Some of the results may surprise you. And, as always, there’s an exciting “Did You Know?”, and there’s a “Pick of the Week” that will take you down memory lane. You don’t want to miss it! (This episode’s a little – just a little – longer than normal, but it’s more than worth it! … Oh, and Jon Snow, we see you!)
