The SHOW Show: with Sweets & Slaney

Neither of this week's new shows are launching with the greatest of spectacle, but both are pretty fun for different reasons. "Hanna" is a serialized rendition of the 2011 movie of the same name. "Black Monday" is a gritty dark-comedy about the stock market crash. Also chats about changes made to the Oscars broadcast, conscious uncoupling, the Breaking Bad movie updates, and much much more!

Always a couple new-ish Netflix rigs to check out. Neither of these are episodic Citizen Kanes, but people're sinking their teeth into 'em!

Also chats about the Oscar noms, snubs and snobs, the new Conan format, Young Tony Soprano, and much much more! Tweet your thoughts to @ShowS...

This week's new shows have truly nothing in common other than that we were really excited for both.
