Bad Reception: Making the Best of Bad TV

EP83 - Bob Patterson

Get ready for some situations, and maybe even some comedy, as we drop the first episode in our "S(t)einfeld Stinkers" series! This time Jason Alexander goes from lovably enraged loser George Costanza to a third rate Tony Robbins named Bob Patterson. The ep we watched, "Naked Bob," deals with his serious confidence issues regarding his downtown region. That's right, there's lots of boner talk in this one! (more so even than usual!) With the biggest comedy hit of all time only a few years behind him, how did J-Xan's followup sitcom fold faster than Kramer in The Contest?? This old-school style ABC laugh-track comedy aired only 5 episodes before getting nixed. I mean, seriously, what is the deal?

EP82 - NightMan

Good golly, it's our two year podiversary!! We celebrate by finally having our hilarious and talented friend, comedian/actor/podcaster Nick Aragon (F*ck This Place podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fck-this-place-the-jobs-podcast/id1477881654], @instaragon [https://www.instagram.com/instaragon/?hl=en]) on the show!! And what a treat of a show we had for him! (shout-out to Josh Hollis of Predict-o-Cast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/predict-o-cast-the-movie-prediction-podcast/id1200222955] for the recommendation!!) In a world full of shows based on popular, well-established, interesting and iconic superhero characters, one show dared to be different. One show had the balls to reach into the depths of obscurity and pull out a mediocre character that literally not one person was asking for. And only one show had the audacity to make a bafflingly inept show around that character. That's right, we watched the nearly inexplicable, gut-bustingly stupid, 1997 syndicated super-flop, NightMan!! Get ready for a super-sized episode full of Morgan's uncontrollable laughter, Mike's top-notch puns, and more Neil Breen references than you can shake a laptop at! Happy two years, baddies!

EP81 - Highlander: The Raven

There can only be one... spinoff of a TV show... spun off from a movie... But that means there's definitely at least three... Right?? Truthfully we don't know anything about the Highlander series, and watching this brief side quest didn't help us out at all. I think it involves swords, kicking stuff, and maybe stealing diamonds? On the plus side, Morgan found The Raven so exciting that she literally lost consciousness during most of the show! There's no shortage of amusing anecdotes and tangents on this one as we try desperately to find anything interesting to say about a show so bland I can't even be bothered to finish writing this descrip Cut the Shit: Morgan - McMillion$ [https://www.hbo.com/mcmillions]Mike - Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning [https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B00BRAH2US/ref=atv_dl_rdr], The Circle (Netflix) [https://www.netflix.com/title/81062025]If you enjoy the show please help spread the word by giving us a quick review oniTunes [https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bad-reception/id1358536515?mt=2]and sharing us with friends. You can follow us onTwitter [https://twitter.com/BadReceptionPod]andInstagram [https://www.instagram.com/badreceptionpod/?hl=en]@badreceptionpod.

EP80 - Good Reception: House, M.D.

Paging Dr. Reception! It’s the return of Good Reception! We take a look at the massive hit medical drama/mystery/comedy House (or House, M.D., it was unclear what the official title was). Will this House our new home, or will we be “bringing down the House??” We had never seen even a single episode of this seminal series starring the world’s grumpiest doctor, so we decided to check out the most acclaimed episode we could find after spending about 5 seconds on google, Season 1, Episode 21: Three Stories. Plus we share our vast Football knowledge and talk about the classic film that everyone knows, Swing Kids! It’s like prescription for laughter! Cut the Shit: Morgan - BoJack Horseman Mike - Little Women & The Films of Isaac Florentine and Scott Adkins   If you enjoy the show please help spread the word by giving us a quick review oniTunes [https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bad-reception/id1358536515?mt=2]and sharing us with friends. You can follow us onTwitter [https://twitter.com/BadReceptionPod]andInstagram [https://www.instagram.com/badreceptionpod/?hl=en]@badreceptionpod.
