MGM+’s The Institute nabs teen prodigy Luke Ellis and places him in a hidden facility where kids with extraordinary powers are tested and enhanced. Part thriller, part YA sci-fi, we unpack the first two episodes of Stephen King's latest mystery. What happens to the kids who graduate to the back half? Why are the administrators so proudly evil? And what’s with the creepy dots? We also compare the show to favorites like Severance, Stranger Things, and Tower Prep. Tune in to hear our full thoughts. Welcome to Today’s Episode!
