Swimming Against the Current (Boob Tube #2.06)

Published: March 21, 2019, 9:53 p.m.

This week, we bid farewell to Catastrophe, which is such an absolute gem of a show, one that has always been brutally, painfully honest but hysterically funny about the highs and low lows of marriage and parenthood. Then we say hello to a newcomer, Hulu's Shrill. We wish the series could have had more time to unfold, but it's a delight for many reasons, Aidy Bryant's performance and the unapologetic look at what it's like to be a fat woman just trying to live her best life, chief among them.\n\nShows Discussed: Catastrophe, Shrill, Queer Eye, Last Week Tonight, The Act
