Take the Black: Praise for Shōgun, shade for Rebel Moon, news on Game of Thrones spinoffs
We celebrate the successful run of Shōgun, continue to be baffled by the ongoing Rebel Moon series, and check in on a pair of Game of Thrones spinoff shows.

Every week, we here at WiC talk about all that's popping of in the worlds of sci-fi, fantasy, movies, TV and books, and we have a couple of major new releases to chomp into this week, namely the series finale of Shōgun on FX and the strange ongoing case of Rebel Moon on Netflix. One was quietly spectacular, and the other was a baffling disaster. Which was which? What the show below to find out:
I'll end your suspense: we loved Shōgun and didn't think much of Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver, which gets points taken off right off the top for its clunky title. We also check in with a pair of Game of Thrones spinoffs, one which will start filming in June and another which may never see the light of day. And of course, no episode of Take the Black is complete without the WiC News Lightning Round.
