0:00.0	Welcome to episode 108 of TV's top five, the Hollywood Reporter's TV podcast. I'm Leslie Goldberg,
0:06.3	West Coast TV editor, and I'm joined by my friend, co-host, and THR's chief TV critic, Dan Feinberg.
0:12.4	Dan, how are you, my friend? Well, it's been a short week, and yet it's felt like an endless week.
0:17.9	So same as usual, Leslie, same as usual. How about you?
0:21.7	I am holding up, man. Oh, God, I hate Mercury being in retrograde. Just me? Or is the whole world
0:26.7	feel like it's bonkers right now? I do not subscribe to that particular religion, but I
0:33.1	acknowledge and admire those who do. But can we just talk about baseball for 30 seconds here?
0:39.5	Fernando Tate's 14-year deal $340 million.
0:43.9	Does that make him Ryan Murphy?

1:12.5	utter steel. Yeah. Or else the fact that he had back problems as a 21-year-old rookie
1:20.5	is going to become worse and worse and worse. And he's suddenly going to become, I don't know,
1:26.1	perpetually injured. And the last few years of this will
1:29.0	be an Albatross, they'll never be able to escape. So one of the other, or my guess.
1:33.0	It'll be a Bobby Monia deal.
1:35.0	Something like only vastly, vastly more. So, yeah, it'll be one or the other. Anyways, it's
1:40.8	interesting, but not if you don't care about baseball. Yeah.
1:46.9	Well, with all that said, let's dive into headlines.
