Join us as we unpack 2013's neo-noir crime flop by acclaimed director Frank Darabont. We accidentally picked ANOTHER show featuring Milo Ventimiglia and we're not sorry. What we are sorry about is calling Simon Pegg, Sean Pegg. Idk where we got that idea since Abby was quite literally looking at his Wikipedia page while she butchered his name.  

btw, here's a great article about abolishing the police: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/07/how-i-became-police-abolitionist/613540/
