Darren and I kick off our coverage of the Euphoria season three premiere, reacting to the six-episode, five-years-later reset, the new tone, and the shift in music after Labyrinth’s reported split from the show, with Hans Zimmer taking over. Before the recap, we run through recent watches and recommendations, including the Oscar-nominated foreign film set around desert rave nomads and looming apocalypse, Riz Ahmed’s Bond-audition satire series, the “Jury Duty”-style Company Retreat, Nirvana the Band the Show the Movie, Hulu’s gag-heavy stoner sci-fi “pizza movie,” and the A24 hit The Drama starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson. We then discuss the premiere’s border-drug-smuggling opener, Ru’s strip-club ordeal and new criminal orbit, the show’s heightened style and recurring exploitation themes, and how Hollywood, OnlyFans, and “hustle culture” storylines may converge, plus upcoming viewing plans like Beef season two and Margot Has Money Troubles.
