Critics and superhero fans Mae Abdulbaki and Allison Shoemaker join our host, Anna Smith, for enthused discussions on two Amazon Prime Video series: The Boys and Stargirl.
Discovering that, ironically, The Boys has a lot to say about its female characters, the critics examine the diverse, kick-ass women of this darkly funny show and praise its Me-Too-era storyline.
Moving onto the more family-friendly Stargirl, they applaud the uplifting, female-centric story that follows three teenage girls as they adopt superhero abilities to fight injustice.
Stay tuned to find out how both shows have interesting relations to Back To The Future II. Beware of minor spoilers.
The critics round up by offering what else they’ve been watching recently, from His Girl Friday (1940) to First Cow (2019).
