Episode: #160: First Looks at "Peacemaker" and "Book of Boba Fett" (with Ken Gartin)
Description: Craig Elsten and Ken Gartin are back together to review two shows headed in very different directions. The James Gunn-helmed "Peacemaker" on HBO Max is a confident R-rated superhero comedy that is both an effective parody, and a funny show that stands well on its own. By contrast, Disney+'s "The Book of Boba Fett" is weighed down by rough casting choices, a leaden plot and some ludicrous choices in early episodes.
