Episode description
Dallas and Lee begin their journey into A24's television output starting with 2017's Amazon Prime show, Comrade Detective.
Comrade Detective is designed to resemble a non-existent gritty 1980's Cold War Romanian police show that promoted Communist ideals. The show finds Detectives Gregor Anghel and Iosif Baciu (dubbed by Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt) investigating the murder of fellow officer Nikita Ionescu and, in the process, unraveling a subversive plot to destroy their country that is fueled by what-else-but the greatest enemy: Capitalism.
