Last week, Freeform’s Kal Penn Approves This Message made the rare decision to invite an actual conservative on to discuss political issues. From there, I was hoping for the show to actually keep its word on being a “non-partisan” election series. Unfortunately, all that ended with its latest effort to shill for Medicare For All.

Just about the only thing that could make your blood boil more than the first presidential debate is one half-hour of Freeform’s Kal Penn Approves This Message. For those of you not in the know, this is the program that believes it can still be non-partisan after showcasing Bill Nye and Hillary Clinton. Somehow, I don’t think that will bring people together.

This Fall TV season is starting to arrive and the Emmys are just around the corner.
