04/02/2016 Duración: 01h02minHEY NOW! The TV Donut crew are digging into a full series circle today withTHE LARRY SANDERS SHOW, one of HBO's first and greatest successes. The inspiration for over-the-shoulder and behind-the-scenes series like 30 Rock, Curb, and Arrested Development, this one is truly a piece of landmark television. We talk about Jim Carrey's dulcet tones, whether or not Larry Sanders is a good person, and the incredible careers of nearly every actor involved in the production. Larry Sanders came out in 1992, and it still feels fresh. One of the best finales of all time, and one of our personal faves, we can't recommend this one enough. Check it out!

Also we repeat ourselves a lot! And that's definitely NOT because the second half of this episode was recorded over a month after the first.......#ScienceYeah

07/01/2016 Duración: 01h05minWHAT TIME IS IT? It's TV-DONUT TIME! And this week we're covering the adventures of Finn the Human and Jake the Dog in the Cartoon Network's smash hit ADVENTURE TIME. What kind of lessons, if any, are kids shows teaching these days? Adventure Time isn't the kind of show to spell it out for you. We certainly struggled, but maybe that's kind of the point. Either way, this is a fun and addictive series that we all got into. Final assessment? Totally mathematical.
