Even though Eve and Sarah D. spend most weekdays thinking about the true crime that\'s worth your time for their newsletter, they still didn\'t know much about the Mobbed-up McDonald\'s Monopoly-game fraud case that\'s at the center of HBO\'s McMillions. Will this docuseries join the scam-umentary pantheon alongside The Dropout and The Imposter? Is Doug Mathews the write-in presidential candidate we need now? And why aren\'t off-camera docu directors ever mic\'d properly? After we considered those questions, we went Around The Dial with BoJack Horseman, The Outsider and other HBO Sunday-night offerings, the end of The Good Place, and Mythic Quest: Raven\'s Banquet. Eve screened an episode of Home Movies for the Canon; then Tim Robinson won and Terry Crews lost, before we filled in the blanks -- in pen! -- in a history-making Game Time. Grab a light meter and go undercover for an all-new Extra Hot Great!
