Brought to you by Simplicity - NZ's fastest growing KiwiSaver plan.
Can Sandra Oh's latest series, Killing Eve top the many (MANY) seasons of Grey Anatomy? Sam's been watching and so far, he's thoroughly impressed. In a game of cat and mouse Eve and Villanelle go head to head in an equal obsession with each other. But is this enough to get Sam through the entire series? Stay tuned.
At Tess's special request, Sam (resident TV expert) investigates True Detective Season 3 but is the world of crime series over-saturated? Can yet another mystery thriller survive? Despite the long episodes, Sam's almost convinced...
Everybody loves a good medical drama, right? From House to Scrubs... the list goes on, and Sam's got a personal favourite on that list. New Amsterdam is one season deep, based on the book Twelve Patients: Life and Death at Bellevue Hospital by Eric Manheimer. The series follows Dr. Max Goodwin, the medical director of one of the oldest public hospitals in the US, with goals to reform the neglected facility. Sam reckons you should get amongst.
Who else likes a rude amount of butter? Leisha Jones joins Mike and Tess in studio to talk the season of hot cross buns. That's right, Leisha's here to help you prepare your Easter feasts, sharing her hot tips on what to pair with a warm hot cross bun. Mmmm.
Controversial topic, feijoas. Mikey isn't a fan but Leisha is getting excited for the upcoming feijoa season, kicking it off with a feijoa crumble milkshake (yep, wow). Other suggestions include feijoa vodka, and feijoa kasudi, mmm, delicious.
Penelope is talking about some of the models that are taking the face of Gucci this season. Zumi Rosow, Dani Miller and Amy Taylor are some of the amazing ladies who are bringing their energy into the Fashun world. And as a long time fan of punk, Penelope Noir is pretty stoked about it.
Rachel's pretty stoked about Sam's selections for today, we're talking Fleabag (2016) season one, highly recommended by Rachel herself - but that's not to say your life's a mess (don't worry). The series follows the protagonist, Fleabag, a young woman trying to cope with life in London. Created by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who also stars in the show, this is not something you want to miss out on, according to Sam AND Rachel, wow.
Sam's bringing in not one, but two, shows this week. After Black Mirror released three episodes in season five last week, there's been a lot of hype and Sam's here to set the record straight. Featuring Miley Cyrus and a series of dystopian realites to shock your system, does it live up to the hype? Sam's also been watching Swamp Thing, but after an eerie abrupt cancellation, what went wrong?
