Dear White People 1.02
Chapter II
This episode is a companion piece to the prior one and has me wondering about the rest of the season. Lionel Higgins, the reporter for the Independent who broke the story about the Dear Black People party, gets the spotlight. The events of the previous episode are also part of this episode. Samantha is only seen fleetingly, just as Lionel was in the previous episode.

GLOW 3.01
Up, Up, Up
I don't know how I avoided the spoilers but I was genuinely surprised, shocked, and saddened by the way the episode opened. There is an oblique reference to what happened on the day that GLOW opens in Vegas in the description of the first episode but I was completely unaware of it. I stayed unaware until they showed Bash and Rhonda getting ready to watch the launch of the Challenger.
