| 0:00.0 | McGriddles, a new McDonald's breakfast. So it's maple syrup infused. It's sweet, then it's |
| 0:05.8 | savoury, because the sausage, you know, and the cheese and the egg. Oh, it's got the golden |
| 0:09.9 | archies stamped on it too. Make that make sense. It's hard to put into words, but... |
| 0:14.4 | Until 11 a.m., subject to availability, fees apply to delivery orders while stocks last. |
| 0:19.9 | You're listening to episode 225 of TV's Top 5, the Hollywood Reporter's TV podcast. |
| 0:26.7 | I'm Leslie Goldberg, the West Coast TV editor, and I'm joined as always by the one, the only, the great. |
| 0:32.7 | Mr. Daniel Feinberg, the Hollywood Reporter's chief TV critic. |
