75: The Ew In True Detective

Published: June 22, 2015, midnight

Point your GPS to Central California and meet your EHG regulars and frequent guest Jeff Drake for a discussion of True Detective's divisive Season 2 premiere! From there, we zoom on to an Around The Dial that stops at A Deadly Adoption, Poldark, The Crimson Field, Catastrophe, which HBO documentaries you should smarten up your summer with, and another dip into classic TV ads of yore. Jeff makes a case for the induction of The Mary Tyler Moore Show pilot into the Canon, and then after identifying the week's Winner and Loser, we wind up with a Game Time you might consider a little too informal. Swirl it all a little before you gulp it down!
