Severance Seasons 1 & 2

Season Finale: 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

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

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

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

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.
