Season 1
Episodes
Best of Rivals
The Toronto Maple Leafs play under the brightest spotlight in hockey - and they haven't been to the Stanley Cup since 1967. Their newly minted superstar, William Nylander, has a $92 million contract, the weight of the world on his shoulders and a surprising best friend since he was 15 years old: David Pastrnak, the superstar on his most hated rival, the Boston Bruins.
As Tough as it Gets
Hockey Players are personified by one word: toughness. And two of the toughest players in the league, Filip Forsberg and Jack Eichel, are found in two of the most surprisingly hockey-mad cities in the NHL: Nashville and Vegas. Both of these warriors withstand great mental and emotional pain in order to achieve their goals. Our only question is: why do they do it?
An Education
It is a rare privilege to be witnessing the moment when a professional athlete takes the step into stardom, but that's just what we see with Bruins goalie, Jeremy Swayman during the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs. A sharp contrast to Swayman's 2nd round opponent, Matthew Tkachuk who has found the perfect home as the hard-nosed leader of the Cup favorite Florida Panthers.
The Captains
In this episode we see three captains in very different phases of their careers: Quinn Hughes in his first year as a Captain in Vancouver, Gabe Landeskog in what could be his last year in Colorado, and Jacob Trouba in the middle. All three men have very different leadership styles, but they all personify a tradition that is purely hockey.
Cup or Bust Pt 1
For Connor McDavid, the stakes of winning or losing the Stanley Cup are ultimate: in a press conference at the end of last season, Connor said it out of his own mouth: "Next year, it's Cup or Bust." And with those words, the stage was set.
Cup or Bust Pt 2
In part 2 of Cup or Bust, we witness one of the greatest comebacks in sports history. As Connor McDavid "drags" the Panthers back to Alberta - Matthew Tkachuk and his family grapple with the thought of letting the Stanley Cup slip through his fingers for the second year in a row.

The Studio
As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their own insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films. With their power suits masking their never-ending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting, and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe. As someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes movies, it's the job Matt's been pursuing his whole life, and it may very well destroy him.
