I remember the Muppet Show from when I was really, really young. It must have been on second run some time in the early 80's, because I was 2 or 3 when it went off the air. I have *always* been entertained by these characters and love whenever they get a new iteration.

We've been waiting decades for an MCU version of the Fantastic Four, so did it live up to the hype? Check out the episode to find out.

It was so surreal that someone insisted to me that men and women see Gargoyles differently, but never explained how. They said that their podcast would explain, but their show ended before they ever released their Gargoyles episodes. Now, I'm seeing if this is true.

As much as I thought that Discovery never stuck the landing on ending the seasons, I loved the characters and was sorry to see it go. Had a lovely discussion talking about the finer points of the final season and looking forward to seeing some of the characters in Starfleet Academy.

Blake's 7 is one of those unsung gems that's a really gripping TV series. It was such a privilege to interview Jan and Brian and talk to them about their time in the series.

Why X-Men: The Animated Series Never Featured Kitty Pryde - SlashFilm Kitty Pryde is a major figure in X-Men comics. So why didn't the 1990s animated series ever feature her as a character, even as a supporting player?

There are a lot of opinions being dropped about the MCU these days. In this episode we really dive deep into the last few years of stories and talk about what we see as the trends, what we think are missed opportunities, and what we expect and what we hope for in Phase Six.

If you're following me I'd really appreciate if you would also follow my show, @42cast.bsky.social

I really love the Daredevil film and have ever since I first saw it. It's one of the few times that I've watched a movie three times in the theater. People hate on it a lot, but it's a story about hope after going through dark times with some fantastic performances. It was great talking about it.

I participated in a table read for the unproduced season finale of the Babylon 5 spinoff, Crusade. Go check it out! babylon5review.podbean.com/e/crusade-12... #Babylon5 #Crusade #Scifi

I can't say enough good stuff about Gargoyles. This show took animation to the next level with nuanced characters and storylines with subtle arcs that interwove all the world's folklore into a single narrative. I highly recommend checking it out and then listening to our episode on it.

When I saw how poorly Marvel was promoting Ironheart, I thought it was because they must have thought that it was awful. Imagine my surprise when I watched it and really appreciated the thought-provoking journey that it took us through. If you haven't watched check it out and then listen to us talk.

I didn’t get one last year, so I made sure that was rectified this year.

It feels like it's becoming common practice to slag off the original Doctor Who series as sexist, but how does it really stack up both against other shows of the time or against the new series? It's a serious topic, but as Doctor Who fans we thought it was well worth discussing.

Spartacus is one of those movies that everyone should watch at least once. We pulled together a panel of people that had seen the film several times before and two people who had never seen it at all. Give it a listen as we discuss why this movie is still talked about.

@tcc3.bsky.social remember this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPtB...

I've never played the Fallout games, but this show immediately hooked me with the overall tone & the retro-futuristic vibe. It's offbeat & funny while looking absolutely amazing and also being a bit disturbing and exciting. Love it and can't wait for S2. Have some fun and listen to us discuss.

Great to see the Netflix series acknowledged. I really hope to see more of this on Disney+ beyond more seasons of Born Again and the Punisher special. Would "really" love to have Heroes for Hire and/or Daughters of the Dragon.
Listen to us talk about this glorious return.

Nathan: I love that the Punisher's love-language is, "well I didn't kill you, so I must like you."
Mark: It's the gift of life!

Excited for the greatest night of the year tonight when we all get one extra hour of sleep. #daylightsavingstime

Sometimes it's just fun to appreciate a bad film with some friends, and this episode celebrates MST3K doing this for decades. There are lots of eras and we all have our preferences, but the show has always been funny. Listen to us chat about a great series!

I know that a lot of people won't give The Man in the High Castle a try, because they think that it would be too depressing, but it just isn't the case. The series shows that even when things look bleak that there's always hope. This is a show well worth watching.

I feel like What If..? was a real mixed bag. It had some amazing storylines, but towards end it just puttered out. I still boggle at how many good What If scenarios were left by the wayside to do some incredibly outlandish ones. Still, we had a blast talking season 3 and we hope you do too!

I'm a huge fan of time travel series, but this one was absolutely unusual. Some of the normal time travel tropes were there but combined and spun in a completely new way. I highly recommend that you watch Travelers if you haven't already and then check out our episode.

Well, my kid got me to watch this show during Covid lockdown after I'd showed her all of Gargoyles. It's an enjoyable series even though I think that it has a few missteps. We also chat a bit about the live action film and why we think that it flopped so massively.

I think that your cat may feel differently about O'Neil vs O'Neill.

Although I remember seeing the original series before TNG existed, this is the first Star Trek I watched live. It was a transformational experience for geeks, because so many people watched it. It was great revisiting that experience and had a blast sharing with my friends. #sttng #tng
