THE REHEARSAL SEASON 2 TV REVIEW
Once in a great while, a hero emerges from the shadows and shows the world that nothing is impossible. All it takes is…a little rehearsing. Nathan Fielder is back with season 2 of The Rehearsal and sheds light on an issue that could affect us all. Airplane crashes. More specifically the lack of communication in tough situations between a pilot and their co-pilot. With the success of the first critically acclaimed season and even Fielder’s acting in The Curse, HBO gives him seemingly unlimited resources to not only recreate an airport, but even put on a fake American Idol-esque show to give co-pilots the confidence to give bad news when needed. The show glides through the main plot which is Fielder working on rehearsing life-or-death situations with co-pilots to prepare for the real thing with their pilots while uncovering more personal aspects of Fielder’s life. The moments where we delve deeper into Fielder’s psyche is absolutely hysterical, from his professional relationship with Paramount Plus, to accidentally finding out he may be autistic. The show culminates in a grand spectacle of a death defying stunt that would make Tom Cruise proud. Listen as Wright, Ryan, and Nathan (not Fielder) discuss this incredible sophomore season of The Rehearsal.

YOUR REVIEWERS
Wright Sulek (The Other Boss, Trash in the Can, Digital Noise, Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Wright hails from the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. His passion for filmmaking brought him to Austin to study and make movies. Since then he’s had his hand in acting, writing, and directing his own short films with numerous like-minded film geeks he’s met along his journey. His newest interest has brought him into the podcasting world. He co-hosted a few different movie related podcasts such as ‘And Now This’ and ‘The Match Cut’. He currently co-hosts with longtime friend, Eric Samaniego, where they talk shop about the grimiest, trashiest, lost gems of movies on their show, ‘Trash in the Can’. Wright also guests and hosts reviews on Screener Squad and Highly Suspect Reviews as well as co-hosts Digital Noise with Chris Cox. As of 2024, Wright has now been inducted into the Austin Film Critics Association as well as co-owns the One of Us network with Chris Cox.
Nathan Flynn (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews)
Nathan Flynn is the resident goofball of One of Us. Net, often found overly caffeinated, slightly stoned, and ready to unleash the hottest takes imaginable. As the resident Letterboxd Lunatic, his movie opinions are as bold as his love for Top Gun: Maverick — a film he considers less of a movie and more of a religion. When he’s not passionately defending his latest cinematic obsession, Nathan manages a comedy club in downtown Austin, where he’s somehow avoided being heckled… so far. Around here, he’s usually the punching bag, but hey, someone’s gotta do it.
Ryan Aleck Hill (Screener Squad, Video and Audio Editor)
Ryan is a Washington D.C. based filmmaker & video editor who loves watching and talking about movies more than just about anything. He currently works at a creative agency as a director of photography/video editor, and does freelance video editing for Anthony Fantano/TheNeedleDrop. He also has a YouTube channel (Downhill Media) where he works on a weirdo art explainer series called “Artsplained” with his partner Michelle. He was a part of the Spill.com community way back in the day, where he was cursed with an obsession for movies. In an effort to break the curse, he shows up on the Screener Squad podcast every once in a while and edits for One Of Us. Chris Cox claims that this is the only way it can be broken. You can follow him on Twitter but you’ll probably regret it.
