Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2021 August 15
Are you Definitely Caught up from last week? This week is a tad bit lighter, but not by much. First, the Legends stay in for a bottle episode, Stargirl actually uses a character named Richard Switft, Superman and Lois confront their worst nightmare, and the Titans meet Blackfire. If you prefer to visit the MCU, you’ll have to take a detour into the universe where T’Challa is Star Lord. In Riverdale, Hiram exposites all over Reggie. Star Trek’s Lower Decks speak in metaphors. SurrealEstate counts down from six as house guests are murdered.

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2021 August 8
Did you rest up the last two weeks? We have plenty of new shows for you to watch! First, Don’t Count out the shows from the the house that Kent built, as Kent visits his high school sweetheart while his son gets close with his wife’s alternate-universe husband. The Legends go bowling. Stargirl and Titans both start their next seasons, while copes with being being a golden age superhero while being in school. The Titans don’t give us descriptions for their first three episodes, but based on the titles, we get either Batgirl or Oracle, Red Hood, and Hank and Dove’s return. If CW shows returning is your thing, Riverdale’s got your back with a post-prison break roundup. If you prefer the other side of the of the Comic universes, Marvel takes its Cinematic Universe and and tweaks it, starting the animated What If story with Peggy Carter became Captain America. If you prefer to stay away from the comics entirely, but still want a new season, Lower Deck’s brings us animated, comedic Star Trek. There’s new episodes of Miraculous, Bad Batch, and My Hero Academia. Finally, if you like your shows coming out in last decade’s style, there’s SurrealEstate’s visit to a rapper’s studio. (Don’t forget last week’s review!)

SurrealEstate Review: “A House is Not a Home”
“They’re not so much a builder as a 3-D printer.”

SurrealEstate: “For Sale By Owner”
“This is your grand plan? Drive away real fast?”
Cult horror/thriller director Danishka Esterhazy takes the helm for the third episode of SurrealEstate, which features Melanie “Wynonna Earp” Scrofano. The Roman Agency deals with a cottage in the woods that may or may not be haunted and a horror writer who seeks inspiration. Luke faces some nasty personal demons.

A child’s imaginary friend keeps the Roman agency hopping.
Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2021 July 25
It’s a light week for our television table, and even lighter week for descriptions, as a writer’s cabin by the lake coming up on the SurrealEstate parade of homes is the only description we have. Based off of titles, Evil does seem to be dealing with the police, the Bad Batch confronts Riverdale’s bad boy after he gets into Tony Stark’s extra armor, and My Hero Academia’s apology is unacceptable.

SurrealEstate Review: “Pilot”
I’m here to help.
Who are you? Are you a priest?
No ma’am. I’m the real estate guy.
The Roman Real Estate Agency deals with haunted (or “stigmatized”—they don’t like the “h” word) properties. Since supernatural doings seriously affect the value of the property, they either clear up issues that aren’t otherworldly, or clean up those that are.
