Heda, it's your big McDonald's hunger calling.

And it's not just any kind of hunger.

It's the kind that calls for big arch.

Start with juicy beef, cheddar cheese and big arch sauce.

Oh, and don't forget those crispy onions.

Hungry? You are now.

Served from 11 a.m. subject to availability.

Price and participation may vary. Hello, welcome back to the Prestige TV podcast feed.

I'm Joanna Robinson.

I'm Rob Mahoney.

It is late at night on a Sunday.

I've had a lot of caffeine.

I'm feeling dittery.

And we're here to do our sort of very instant reaction to episode four of season three of Euphoria. Yes. Joe, have you ever been to the moon? No. Have you? Just wondering. Do you have a photo of me on the moon? Definitely not. Does I ever tell you I was on the moon? I would say like posing you as one of the fake astronauts and the definitely fake moon landing. I could buy it. I could see that as a future for you. All right.

This episode's called Kitty Likes to Dance, written by, directed by, and out. The whole show was created by Sam Levinson. I don't know if you've heard. I have heard. And let me tell you. From this episode, I can tell. Okay. We have a lot to talk about. This felt like a very long episode. I just wanted to delight you.

I promised you right before we started recording that I just like read a Reddit comment that I wanted to delight you with.

And it goes like this.

Nate and Jules have the worst plot lines. They should just hook up.

That would be the solution to so many problems.

I like kind of agree. Like, you know, as much as we railed against the Nate and Julesippers, I was like, oh, huh, do they have a point? Oh, no. The worst person you know is a point. Okay. Overall impressions on this episode.

I don't know what the show is. We're kind of all over the place. I think I feel similarly as to previous episodes that the Roo stuff is often the strongest of everything that's happening in a given episode. I do think we got a significant upgrade this week in the Cassie Dynamics, just moving her out of the Nate orbit into the Maddie orbit. Cindy, sweetie, I'm sorry. You were so funny in this episode. Super funny. You were really good in this episode. And it's just as simple as like put her in a place where like she gets to bounce off some more interesting side characters with a change of scenery with like actual life happening around her and not Nate Jacobs getting his toe cut off. Yeah, yeah, it was great. I mean, but even the Nate stuff with the toe at the beginning of the episode worked. I had the same thought. I was like, oh, you took Cassie out of the Nate plot line, and all of a sudden I'm way more engaged with her.

I didn't, like, we were watching it all together here in the studio. Very normal workplace environment. Really normal episode of television for us to all watch it work. And I definitely, I think I laughed the most at Cassie stuff. Like, it was really good. Her response to the Coke hit alone. Yeah. Wonderful.
