After the obligatory deconstruction of Sunday night’s disaster at the Oscars Dork Shelf’s TV critics Susan Stover and Peter Counter talk about action and violence in television. From the psychological domestic abuse on display in HBO’s new Big Little Lies to action–packed animation like Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, the soon to return Samurai Jack, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, this episode of Tuned In can best be described as a high-octane, no-holds-barred thrill ride. Susan shares the violent moment that made her give up on Boardwalk Empire, Peter geeks out about the choreography in AMC’s Into The Badlands, and they ponder the importance of TV action set pieces.
