Description

Taking It Down comes out this week with two episodes, and this, the first, offers thoughts that are all without spoilers.

Blaine begins with a welcome and overview of the first non-spoiler show (0:03 ), but when Donovan joins, he questions the existence of UMass (2:13 ).

The hosts get into television with Ken Burns, controversy, and his new documentary 'The American Revolution' on PBS (3:56 ). Has he lost his touch? From there, it's short thoughts on 'The Beast in Me' from Netflix and how Matthew Rhys and Claire Danes can do no wrong (14:01 ). They continue a few ideas on 'IT: Welcome to Derry' (17:09 ) and praise the energy of 'Death by Lightning' on Netflix (25:15 ). They can't say much about 'Plur1bus' on Apple TV, but they try, especially about the creators (32:26 ) before moving into the Netflix film 'Frankenstein' and how it differs from other famous adaptations (34:53 ).
