Aidee went searching for a scary Halloween movie and ended up joining the pre-Christmas rush. Sure, it's a US production filmed in Wellington with the help of Weta Workshop, but just what the hell _is_ a Krampus?

Thanks to NEON.

With your normal host off making some actual telly, Mikey and Sarah talk about David Simon's new drama, The Deuce. The new HBO series features double your usual dose of James Franco (playing twins) and Maggie Gyllenhall as a hooker-with-a-(business)-heart-of-gold in a dive into the fledgling porn industry of 1970s New York City. Inspired by real life events, can Simon bring his gritty realism to the flares, flash and flange of such salacious material? And, perhaps more importantly, will this fill the Monday night hole left by Game of Thrones?

Thanks to NEON.

We got a bit carried away in the first flush of our new television and streaming segment, Viewmaster. Or, given that this week's is all about the recently season-seven-wrapped Game of Thrones, perhaps this week's edition is better called... View-maester?     [slow distant clap]     Oh dear.

Thanks to NEON.
