TV Avalanche
Summary: With TV Avalanche, Uproxx's Alan Sepinwall and Brian Grubb have fun scaling the heights of the overwhelming new TV landscape to talk about shows they love, shows they watched so that you will never ever have to, and shows that may turn into something special with a little luck and time. Come for the TV nerdery, stay for the occasional talk about silly character names and two of the NBA's most godforsaken basketball teams!

It's a busy second episode, as Alan and Brian review FX's trippy comic book adaptation Legion, Comedy Central's buddy comedy Detroiters, and Netflix's UK Office sequel movie David Brent: Life on the Road, which also leads to a discussion of other classic characters deserving of a one-shot film like this. Then it's on to the final season of Girls, SNL's ongoing war with President Trump, and a breakdown of Super Bowl ads and Lady Gaga's halftime show. 1:25-14:04 Legion 14:05-19:44 Detroiters 19:45-27:58 David Brent: Life on the Road 27:59-42:50 TV characters we'd like to see get Where Are They Now? movies: 42:51-47:07 Girls final season micro-preview 47:09-57:50 SNL takes on Trump 57:51-60:07 Super Bowl ads and Lady Gaga at halftime
