Luke joins Matt and Dawn for another look at four shows available this week. HBO Max has finally launched in the UK, which means our long wait for the award-winning medical drama The Pitt has come to an end. The 15-episode series functions differently from any other show in the genre, with each episode capturing an hour of the same hectic shift for the medics. It's a show we've had to wait over a year for, but is it worth the wait?

Next, the creator of Mum and Him & Her has a brand new BBC One series about a couple desperate for childern. Babies, features the same naturalistic dialogue we've come to expect from this writer, with two wonderful performances in the lead roles. It's the other side of the story that confuses us.

Next, Netflix has a new horror show, Something Very Bad is Going to Happen, which, despite its title warning you of worse to come, feels overstuffed, desperate to be scary and strangely empty.

Lastly, Prime Video has a new British comedy, Bait, written by and starring Riz Ahmed as an actor whose life is upended when he is spotted leaving an audition for James Bond. It's a clever idea, but is it disciplined enough to keep us watching?

For the The Strikes Quiz, Luke challenges Matt and Dawn to list as many of the shows they reviewed in 2025 as they can. It's harder than you think.

Comedy expert Sophie Davies joins Matt and Dawn to review a very comedy heavy week. The American institution Saturday Night Live comes to the UK with the launch of SNL UK on Sky One. Two comedy hits return for their second seasons on Prime Video. Jimmy Carr hosts another impressive cast of British comics and comedy stars who try not to laugh in Last One Laughing. And the team behind Jury Duty return of a second season. This time, instead of a Jury, their focus is on a company retreat. The premise remains the same, all of but one of the cast are comedy actors and we see how the non-actor who isn't in on the joke responds.

Lastly, Imperfect Women, a new airport novel type mystery drama elevated by performances from Elisabeth Moss and Kerry Washington.

Lastly, how many SNL actors can Matt and Sophie name in our quiz?

Matt and Luke are back aboard their TV Time Machine to March of 2026. BBC Two launches the innovative and brilliantly funny The Dave Gorman Collection, which sees a then unknown new comic Dave Gorman, set out to meet as many people with his name as he can. Presented as a slide show presentation, Gorman's journey is a lot of fun and fresh.

Next, off the back of the first Big Brother, Channel 4 and the BBC join forces for a Celebrity edition of the reality show which only ran for 8 days and was structured strangely. Half-hour episodes and quick nominations and evictions. The main thing the show is remembered for is Vanessa Feltz, who had a bit of a breakdown when she was nominated for eviction. But, actually, the more surprising takeaway from the show is how being in the house affected comedian and eventual winner Jack Dee.

Next, having finished The Fast Show, Paul Whitehouse brings us BBC comedy Happiness. The dark comedy, is an odd pitch: A man who voices a popular children's character is lost when his wife is run over by an ice cream truck. It's dark and absurd topic, but there's pathos in there and some really familiar faces giving their first performances.

Lastly, Channel 4, launches raunchy and risque comedy drama Teachers with a star turn from Andrew Lincoln. It's a show where the teachers are just as badly behaved and desperately to be liked as the teenagers they are teaching. It's vibrant, fast-paced and immediately aware of it is.

Finally, Matt challenges Luke to name as many chart hits from March 2001 as he can.
