#133: Maul – Shadow Lord - "Unexpected Allies" and "The Dark Lord"
Maul: Shadow Lord reached it's conclusion on May the 4th, and what an amazing conclusion it was. We give our thoughts on this magnificent closing to an incredible first season of television, including the appearance of one of the greatest villains of all time, Maul's treatment of Devon, and our predictions for Season 2.

#132: Maul – Shadow Lord - "Call to Oblivion" and "The Creeping Fear"
With the final two episodes right around the corner, it seems Maul - Shadow Lord may be saving the best for last, as "Call to Oblivion" and "The Creeping Fear" gave us some of the best this show's had to offer so far.
Both episodes showed us new sides to Maul while bringing more of the grounded action, chase sequences, and stunning animation we've been drooling over. We're stoked for the finale.

#131: Maul – Shadow Lord - "Inquisition" and "Night of the Hunted"
We've crossed the halfway point of Season 1 of Maul: Shadow Lord . How does the season hold up as it gears up for the end-game of the first season?
We talk about everything we're still enjoying, like the incredible fight choreography and action sequences, and give a few minor critiques for "Inquisition" and "Night of the Hunted."
