The Incomparable, number 199, June 2014.

Welcome back to The Incomparable. I'm your host, Jason Snell. This is episode 199.

Surely not momentous in any possible way.

We're here at the end of the, or less the end of what has traditionally been considered the TV season, although now there's a bunch of stuff that's on in the summer too.

And I thought this would be a good time not only to do what we do every year, we'll just talk about the Game of Thrones season that just passed, but also talk about other TV series that we've seen over the past nine months and that we

want to talk about and maybe even recommend to you. So we're going to start by talking about things

with basically no spoilers or as little spoiler as possible. And then when we get to Game of Thrones,

the spoiler horn is warming up in the bullpen, ready to come in and blow its horn so we can

talk about Game of Thrones season four. So joining me to talk TV are a fine collection of couch

potatoes. John Syracusea. Hello. You're all going to have to remind me which TV shows actually happen to this quote-unquote season,

because my concept of time is very shaky, but I have a long list of shows.

Just stop me if it's something that was on last year.

Okay. We're not rigorous fact-checkers here, but we'll help you out if we can.

David Lauer is also here. Hello.

Hello there.

You'll be leaving us when the spoiler horn fires for Game of Thrones as you haven't seen it.

Oh, I'll hang out because I'm not going to see it.

Oh, okay.

All right.

You can just go into a trance and steer at the wall.

I'll make them using comments as needed.

Good, good.
