On this week’s episode, Ben, Libby, and Leo go long on three topics: Sunday’s Oscars, the finale of “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” and the second episode of “Mare of Easttown.” First, Ben discusses his C+ review of Sunday’s Academy Awards and how successful producers Steven Soderbergh, Jesse Collins, and Stacey Sher were at re-inventing the awards show as a “movie.” Then the gang discusses the frustrating finale (and really season) of Disney+’s “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” proving that Marvel is still in the early stages of mastering the learning curve of television. (Tip: They should quit referring to their shows as six-hour movies.) And finally, the debut of a new weekly feature around HBO’s “Mare of Easttown:” Leo’s Murder Power Rankings, based on the actions and revelations of the previous weekend’s episode, so if you’re not caught up yet, beware of spoilers.

<p>On this week’s episode of Millions of Screens, Ben leads a spoiler-free discussion about HBO’s newest limited series, “Mare of Easttown,” which stars Kate Winslet as a hardscrabble detective in a small Pennsylvania town investigating a local murder while trying to keep her life from falling apart. Amongst the topics discussed: Ben talks about his issues with the critiques of the Western Pennsylvania English on display in the series, then Libby hints at what separates “Mare” from other “dead girl” crime procedurals, and all the while Leo gets thirsty for some Yuengling and Rolling Rock. Additionally, the gang talks about the news Ben broke about Disney+’s decision to run “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” in Drama at this year’s Emmys as opposed to the crowded Limited Series field, and all parties involved get excited for the upcoming second season of Apple TV+’s “Ted Lasso,” in the wake of the teaser trailer featuring new AFC Richmond kits, more homemade biscuits, and, for one host, a reminder that The New York Football Jets are still the most reliable punchline in comedy.</p>
