Cape Fear, Alice And Steve, and The Witness. With guests Nicola Walker and Jemaine Clement

About this episode

Nicola Walker and Jemaine Clement discuss their new comedy Alice And Steve, along with reviews of Cape Fear and The Witness.

After being led astray within the liminal spaces between spaces in the Pilot TV office, Nicola Walker and Jemaine Clement finally make their way to the studio this week to chat their new Disney+ comedy Alice And Steve (35:23-54:53), which we also review (1:10:45) this week. Plus we re-live our nineties nightmares as cinematic uber-villain Max Cady makes his small screen debut in Apple’s remake of Cape Fear (1:25:01), and we delve into some traumatic true crime in Netflix’s The Witness (1:40:02). Elsewhere, the team try to name the current funniest show on TV and Boyd takes apart the Euphoria finale scene by scene (4:34-15:06 if you want to avoid spoilers). Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide. If you want to avoid this and would like the podcast entirely ad-free (as well as 17 hours early, with a second weekly show and spoiler specials) then sign up to Pilot+!
