Season Finale: Desperate Housewives Season 1

Desperate Housewives Season 1

We did it! Welcome to the season finale of BingeFest where Kate confuses 911 with 991 (as you do), we mourn-ish the loss of Doctor Odyssey, and get into it with Deseperate Housewives where the children and husbands are so terrible they might as well be paid mercenaries.

Lois & Clark Seasons 2 & 3

Lois and Clark The New Adventures of Superman Seasons 2 and 3

For the first time ever we revisit a show we’ve already done because seasons 2 and 3 of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman are so vastly different from season 1. Mainly we wonder if Lois is truly a lunatic and whether 1990s Teri Hatcher was hot enough to have hair that bad. Also, Mayson Drake: the girlfriend Clark needed, but not the one he deserved. Lois Lane: the girlfriend Clark deserved, but not the one he needed. Also, we fan out over John Shea’s Lex Luthor, the best Lex that ever was – fight us!

Severance Seasons 1 & 2

Severance Seasons 1 and 2

This week Kate gushes about the adorable British show Big Boys and Vinnie confirms that the Ted TV Show is exactly what you’d expect based on the movie Ted (i.e. amazing and awesome). We also get into the nitty-gritty of Severance, including the fights between Innies and Outies, the poor sad life of Ms. Casey both as an Innie and as the Outie she’ll become, the weird sacrificial lambs in the bowels of Lumon, and how the actual work they do is just… inexplicable.

The Time Traveler’s Wife

The Time Traveler's Wife

This week Daredevil returns in the most improbable rescue of all time and Kate mourns the loss of Foggy while cheering the loss of Karen, all the while not totally understanding HOW this show is back instead of Jessica Jones. We also get into it over the exact definition of a Mexican Standoff. Then we dig deep into the Time Traveler’s Wife, its ties to Doctor Who, the different rules around time travel (butterfly or circle), jinn particles, and how wonderful it is when the universe gives you a perfect season of television that doesn’t require a season two.

Shrinking Seasons 1 & 2

Shrinking Seasons 1 and 2

This week, we talk about Shrinking, the show where you find out what happens when a psychiatrist talks to you like a friend and tells you what they really think, with all kinds of consequences. (Plus Kate does some gushing about Harrison Ford’s performance.) Right in the middle of the conversation, Vinnie decides to have a fight about sitcoms, which we had been saving for another time, but which fits perfectly here. Give it a listen and weigh in. Is Kate being too harsh? Is Vinnie being too lenient? Inquiring minds want to know.

Doctor Odyssey Season 1

Doctor Odyssey Season 1

This week, Vinnie judges Kate for hate-watching anything, and Kate judges Vinnie for watching dumb sitcoms like Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage and Fuller House. Together we judge Netflix for milking Stranger Things and Cobra Kai for all their worth, Ted Lasso for trying to come back for a fourth season, and medical shows in general, Doctor Odyssey in particular (except Kate actually loves this show which Vinnie totally judges her for).

Superstore Season 1

Superstore

In this episode, we accidentally turn the show into a full-on production meeting and go all-in on advocating for the shingles vaccine. We also dive into a wild documentary about one of the world’s top three worst living people—Vince McMahon—before wrapping things up with the main event, Superstore, a series set in what’s basically your local Walmart. It shouldn’t work, but somehow, it totally does.

The Umbrella Academy Season 4

The Umbrella Academy

This week the main event is The Umbrella Academy and all its weird apocalyptic, superhero-y nonsense. We answer your pressing questions like, how is Klaus THAT lovable, how did this show produce NO stars, how did they do absolutely NOTHING with Viktor’s transition? We also talk about the Lady Dr. Who years and how adorable it now seems that people were pissed about a WOMAN having the temerity to portray a character that is essentially an alien. Plus Vinnie’s hopes for a good Terminator show crash and burn again, this time with the disappointing Terminator Zero. We do all this while skirting around politics until we just don’t skirt anymore. If you’re a woke snowflake you might love this episode.

Preacher Seasons 1 & 2

Preacher Seasons 1 & 2

This week we delve into the first part of the last season of Cobra Kai, the bullshit of some networks (looking at you, AMC) splitting last seasons into two instead of just paying the actors the money they deserve, and how disappointing Preacher was watching it now, versus how much we loved it when we were watching it week to week back in the day.

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off

We cover a lot of territory in this episode including everything you could possibly want to know about Scott Pilgrim, the myth, the legend, the movie, the show, the comic, the remix. Plus, Kate puts her big girl pants on and allows Hannibal Lecter into her home, er, television.

Also, Beavis & Butthead, Daria, Presumed Innocent the Redux, and the Fanboy Special: Tron Uprising. As Bill Murray once said, you should be afraid to miss this.
