    #5 - The Walking Dead, The Bisexual and The Haunting Of Hill House

    This week Pilot TV's Terri White is swapped out for her Southern alter-ego Julia Raeside (the sceptical yin to Boyd's perma-sunny yang) as we dive deep into the latest announcements from Amazon (Wheel Of Time fans rejoice), dissect the possible meanings of the new Star Trek Discovery poster (Romulans, anyone?) and take a time out to recommend some long-lost shows that might have slipped your notice. All that plus reviews of Netflix's The Haunting Of Hill House, Channel 4's The Bisexual and the ninth Season of The Walking Dead (still dead, still walking).

    #4 - The Good Place, Elite and The Man In The High Castle

    Doctor Who is on our minds in this week's episode as the team presents our official review of the thirteenth doctor's debut as well as Netflix's Elite and the belated return of Amazon's The Man In The High Castle. We also pull back the curtain on some of the shows we're watching right now, talk about Marvel and DC's small screen war and bathe in the warm, heavenly glow of The Good Place.

    #3 - Doctor Who, American Horror Story and Bodyguard

    On this week's Pilot TV podcast we take an exclusive peek inside the TARDIS with an early look at the new series of Doctor Who, recount some of our favourite TV shows (hear all about Terri's penchant for misery porn and why James despises all things fun), plus we get apocalyptic with the new Season of American Horror Story. There's also the usual rundown of the latest TV news, as well as an in-depth, spoilerific debate about the Bodyguard finale (all plot spoilers are restricted to between 09:00 and 18:33, so if you haven't seen it yet then you might want to skip that bit).

    #2 - Killing Eve, Maniac and Mystery Road

    The second instalment of Pilot TV's podcast once again with our hosts banging on about Bodyguard as we get to grips with Sergeant Budd's latest escapades (minus spoilers, naturally). More coherently, however, we take a deep dive into the three best shows kicking off this week, which include the phenomenal Killing Eve (making its way to British shores at long last), Netflix's mega-trippy Maniac, and bonzer Australian drama Mystery Road. All that and the latest TV news, including the latest Westworld casting and why we're all going to die while watching The Walking Dead.

    #1 - Live Special - Strangers, Black Earth Rising and A Discovery Of Witches

    Recorded in front of a live audience because why the hell not, the first ever Pilot TV Podcast, tied in with the new cinematic TV magazine brand from the people who brought you Empire, is hosted by the mag's Editor in Chief Terri White, along with her trusty bald deputies James Dyer and Boyd Hilton. Together they discuss this week's Hot Topic - current BBC ratings smash Bodyguard, plus TV News on the imminent arrival of the hugely anticipated comedy thriller Killing Eve, from Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the trailer for the final season of House Of Cards, and TV sexiest ever drama, apparently, Wanderlust. We also review new ITV thriller Strangers starring John Simm, BBC2's wildly ambitious Black Earth Rising with the phenomenal Michaela Coel, and Sky One/NOW TV's big-budget fantasy series A Discovery Of Witches.
