In this week's episode we talk about The Brothers Sun, the Netflix action  series starring Academy Award winner Michelle Yeoh, all about a family that is torn between a peaceful, happy family life and a life of crime that puts them at constant risk of death.

Why were we so disappointed by this show? Spoiler alert - it's mostly Bruce-related. Let's discuss.
