January has traditionally been a quiet time for TV, with many shows on hiatus and few dramatic premieres and TV events. Not so any more, and this week in particular was massive. Just one of the big finales this week was Arrow, which among other things, transformed superhero TV and The CW as a whole. Of course we had to spotlight it, and we’re excited to welcome back friend of the show Allison Shoemaker (The A.V. Club, Podlander Drunkcast, Debating Doctor Who, Hall of Faces, and more) to dive in with us, looking at the finale, the final season, and the series as a whole. Before that, though, there’s a whole lot more TV to discuss. We kick things off with the comedies, including the Miracle Workers: Dark Ages premiere, Fresh Off the Boat, and a few spoiler-free thoughts on The Good Place finale. Then we move over to genre, catching up with Star Trek: Picard, some spoiler-free talk about the Evil finale, and closer looks at the Emergence finale, Supergirl, and a monumental Doctor Who.
