NOTE: We’re considering doing a weekly (re)watch of Dark Matter season 1 in the lead-up to the season 2 premiere at the end of August. Would you support this? If so, let us know at decodingtv(at)gmail(dot)com.
In this episode of Decoding TV, David and Patrick discuss what’s going on in the world of TV, then dive into the latest episode of Euphoria and the Prime Video series Spider-Noir.
