I enjoyed this show, but now there is really no point, as Goodman has moved on. Jason throwing subjects at Goodman, who now seems to have a complete disdain for what he once did, isn’t entertaining. Jason should dump out, & concentrate on his other shows. Enough cryptic talk about what...Read full review »

Is the TVTM over or will there be new episodes? I hope there are more episodes soon. If not it was a good run for all the episodes I listen to were great!!!!

Shame on The Hollywood Reporter for losing Tim Goodman!!!

My favorite tv podcast. I love Tim’s views on shows and Jason’s excellent hosting and production.

If you’re looking for a podcast that won’t dismiss basically any show that doesn’t fit within a very narrow range of cable dramas aimed at white men, look somewhere else. Not only does host Tim Goodman haughtily dismiss the shows themselves, he also seems fairly contemptuous towards the people...Read full review »

Highly recommendable! Very nuanced, fun, lots of tv news as well as background tv coverage. And did I mention, it’s fun.

The hosts have great chemistry and do a nice job of covering the TV landscape, both reviews of new series and industry analysis. Highly recommended.

Maybe if I hadn’t have ventured into this podcast coming from vulture tv podcast I i would be more open to nerd alerts running rampant in this, but I am not, I don’t need to know how networks are, let’s talk about character and style and plot. Shut up about the “cable people” no one cares! Let’s...Read full review »

It's really sad, because this can be such a fun listen. But Tim Goodman really is a TV snob, and at least twice he has said that if you watch network dramas, "I don't want to to know you". Which to me is fine if that's his opinion. Jason Snell, however, doesn't want to...Read full review »

They trashed Twin Peaks season 3 for what felt like hours. I never watched Twin Peaks until about a month back. I failed to finish Eps. 1. Everything about it felt too foreign. But, I gave it a second chance and fell in love. If you liked Twin Peaks of decades past you should either like or love...Read full review »

I guess my only issue is the host Jason Snell. I actually like the guy and feel he does a good job playing traffic cop, but his palate is so limited. If the shows premise is not sci-fi or super natural he literally hasn't seen it. The problem he doesn't even watch the pilot of billiant...Read full review »

Super informative and absolutely necessary in these times of overabundance. Tim and Jason's banter is always entertaining whether or not the show being discussed is on my watchlist. Strongly recommend!Read full review »

New fan of the show. Lots of good conversations happening here, and not just television shows but the state of the television industry and Tim pulls no punches when it comes to any show, person, or network that's flounderingRead full review »

Dan from the 615--Sometimes I have to skip forward to avoid spoilers for shows I'm not caught up with, but overall I love the updates provided by Tim and Jason to keep my 'to be watched' queue full.Read full review »

Informative, funny and totally enjoyable for anyone interested in the current and future of "tv" Tim Goodman is a national treasure and Jason Snell is the perfect "cohost"Read full review »

I look forward to your podcast every week, so much so that when you take time off there is a void in my heart that cannot be filled until I hear your voices again.
I’m just saying via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/05/16
I tried to listen to this podcast a number of times because I read the reviews. The thinking isn't original, the wit is dull and the analysis is inane. I expected more insight from a longtime critic employed by the Hollywood Reporter. Don't quit your day job.Read full review »

One of these guys is very annoying because he cannot seem to finish a sentence. Very hard to listen to.

My go to podcast to decide what TV to watch!

I recently discovered this podcast in searching for commentary and reviews of my favorite AMC programs--Better Call Saul, Mad Men. Now I am hooked. Intelligent discussion, funny but not too jaded and snarky, perfect voices, excellent production. I wish all my podcasts were this well put...Read full review »

Making the jump from anthology to a regular serial, this show from Jason Snell and Tim Goodman is about television and the business of television, not ratings, (much) casting news or personalities. Working from the assumption that there’s too much great television for anyone to see or to waste...Read full review »

A very good, professional and often funny Podcast. One of my favorites
Doom2508 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/15
Tim's "salty" rants and Jason's humor make for entertaining conversations even if you've never seen the show they're talking about. The recommendations are almost always spot on, but I honestly wouldn't care either way. Still waiting for my pony keg!Read full review »

We all have way too much to do to try and figure out what to watch. Right? Well let Tim and Jason help you navigate what shows to watch and which to avoid. Along with thoughtful topical discussions, this podcast is a highlight each week. I also like how listener interaction is a big part each...Read full review »

The TV Talk Machine is one of my favorite podcast. I look for it every Friday afternoon, and it helps get me through the last part of my day. Funny and informative. I could listen to another hour each week. Great rundown of shows, and Tim Goodman is frank, honest and cuttingly "kind"...Read full review »

The only TV podcast on my subscription list. Been a regular reader of Tim Goodman since his SF Chronicle days (he's now at Hollywood Reporter). Want a brutally funny of a comedy that's not funny? Here you go, and savor the deserved snark. Goodman also has steered us to several superb...Read full review »
