Julio Frenk Is UCLA's Next Chancellor, How TV Sitcoms Transformed Gay Rights, And TV Talk: Shows To Watch This Week

The days are longer and the nights are shorter, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get cozy for summer’s best new television series. Each week, we try to break through the noise with TV watchers who can point us to the must-sees and steer us clear of the shows that maybe don’t live up to the hype. This week, we discuss with Melanie McFarland, TV critic for Salon and Eric Deggans, TV critic for NPR.
