A new investigative show where Oscar superfans Claire, Dean, and Morgan exhume the corpse of Academy Awards' past and learn what it can tell us about the future of the awards. Each miniseries covers Best Picture and 4 notable categories in a single year of the Academy Awards. Will they close the case, or will it still be wide open? It's up to YOU to decide!
Welcome back, members of the jury! In our GRAND RETURN episode, your detectives are breaking down all the news that has come out of the Fall Festivals! Dean breaks down his (wonderful) experiences at TIFF, and then we drop our early predictions!

2010: BEST SCORE
Get ready to hear the music, members of the jury! For this week's case, your detectives dive DEEP into the Best Original Score category from 2010. They examine how Marco Beltrami and Buck Sanders collaborate on a very atmospheric work, what James Horner did with the sonic soundscape of Pandora, gab a lot about Sherlock Holmes, dig into Alexandre Desplat's Anderson collaborations, and generally get really heated about Michael Giacchino's Oscars history.
