The Other Two, Below Deck, Vanderpump Rules and Ashley Ray's Official TV Guide
A lot of finales are on the way, here's a whole lot of TV to get you through the upcoming drought
HEY! First!!! Did you have a hard time downloading this week’s episode of TV, I Say?? Well, there was a technical error that made it only available on Spotify, but now it’s fixed! Go check it out everywhere. It is a Below Deck, Vanderpump Rules, I Am Jazz DEEP DIVE with Molly Lambert and Anna Hossnieh, two of my favorite people on all things culture and reality TV.
Go listen to it. Then go tell like, 5 friends about my podcast and give it 5 stars on whatever platform you use to listen to podcasts! Buy some merch even, it’s really cute! This week on Twitter someone said I should start a podcast, and what do you know, I already have one! There’s two whole seasons you can dive into:
ASHLEY RAY IS ON TOUR
NEW YORK CITY!
I’m recording my debut comedy album, Ice Cream Money, at Union Hall on 6/6! There’s an early show and a late show. It’s been TWO YEARS since I did a solo show in NYC, so I actually know you don’t want to miss this.
Want to support my tour or promoting my album? That would be amazing! I’m not making money from TV right now, so help me tour and be funny:

I know you’re already preparing yourself for the finales of Ted Lasso, Barry, and Succession, but there is other TV out there! I’ll have a big finale episode of the podcast in two weeks, but here are some TV opinions in the meantime:
The Other Two (HBO Max)
Do people even realize this show is back?! It is serving the funniest comedy episodes of the year and no one is TALKING ABOUT IT. This week they did a full homage to Pleasantville that turns into a full pro-SAG-AFTRA strike celebration. I’m terrified HBO Max is going to cancel this show and then remove it.Maggie (Hulu)
Speaking of delightful shows that are being removed, Disney+ has made the choice to remove a ton of shows from their platform and Hulu with their upcoming merger. Maggie, the delightful romantic comedy series I fell in love with, is one of the shows that got the axe. Along with Pistol, Everything’s Trash and The Premise. They’ll all be gone on May 26, so enjoy them while you can.Selling Sunset (Netflix)
Christine is gone and guess what? IT DOESN’T MATTER! Selling Sunset is in its LGBTQ era and there’s enough drama and backstabbing to make up for Christine’s disappearance. This might be my favorite season, it’s all drama.You, Me and My Ex (TLC)
I need someone to tell that one girl her man is gay.90 Day Fiance: The Other Way (TLC)
We’re getting a three-part Tell All and I’m really just here for Gabe’s reactions. He came ready to start drama and that’s the way to do it! He is coming for everyone and defending his woman!90 Day Fiancé: Love in Paradise (TLC)
Do we really think Carlos and his man are done?! I honestly don’t believe it!Yellowjackets (Showtime)
Next week’s TV I Say has a deep dive into this season of Yellowjackets, but I just want to say this weekend’s episode…we’re getting things back on track and I loved it.Grey’s Anatomy (ABC)
There was a two-part finale where a plane full of doctors faced extreme turbulence and I knew they weren’t going to die. This show has really lost its edge.Dave (FX)
This last episode was written by Niles Abston and it was fucking perfect. Everything you want from Dave and what it does well.
