Here’s our episode on the Lanterns finale, a series that ended up carrying more weight with all of us than I think we realized it would. Hope you enjoy our take on it.

And huge thanks to all of you for following along with us! We really appreciate you guys. If there’s a season 2, we’ll be back, and we’ll probably jump on and talk about Man of Tomorrow — the upcoming S...

“I hate waiting. You got anybody to eat around here?”

Penny and Kara talk through this noir-heist episode and find some tangents along the way including ads on streaming platforms, Las Vegas as the perfect city for vampires, Heist movies like Ocean’s Eleven and The Thomas Crown Affair, Pierce Brosnan, James Bond, exploitative costuming, celebrity sightings, and, as usual, vampire dietary requirements.

Next time we’ll tackle B...

Halloween is in the air, and we’re breaking from the rewatch for the new Friday the 13th prequel series, Crystal Lake, premiering this Thursday, October 15, on Peacock. We’ve seen the first couple of episodes, and I think you’re gonna like it! It’s surprisingly fun, with some dark comedy, and the great Linda Cardellini putting in an incredible performance as Pamela Voorhees. Even if you don’t usually like slasher flicks, I recommend giving this one a shot. Like wit...

Could Negan be more of a total piece of s#!t that he is in this episode. Good thing it was an extra long one, in case we didn’t have our fill. I (Jason) actually did think it was a good episode. But it made me wish they could’ve wrapped up the Savior war right quick though. Lucy’s away this ep, and so I’m to be joined by Alex to talk this one out!

Welcome to Widow’s Bay everybody! Karen and I are overjoyed that so many of you expressed interest in us covering this. And what a pleasure to be immersing ourselves in the world of this wonderfully funny, smart, creepy, kooky, multiple Emmy-winning series.

They just keep getting better and better. Such a hard-hitting, engaging episode this week, with perspective on Hal’s past and his relationship with his father, John reckoning with a more compassionate version of Hal, and their journey to a surreal other world. We can’t wait to see how this wraps up.

Penny and Kara journey to the colonial era to follow Darla’s origins and the progression of her love story with Angelus. They find plenty of tangents, including Y2K telephones, children’s misunderstandings of the world of adults, Cersei Lannister, vampirism benefits comparison, possible Twilight reboots, and TV characters we want to punch in the face.

We're on Easy Street

And it feels so sweet

It's our moment in the sun

And it's only just begun

It's time to have a little fun

And we're inviting you to come and see why

The Resident Evil film series has a spotty reputation at best. Forget about all that, because this latest iteration has Ron Anderson (aka Austin Abrams) in it! And also, it’s directed by visionary new horror director Zach Cregger (Barbarian, Weapons), who’s never even seen any of the other RE movies, but loves the games, and it really shows. Whether you’re a Resident Evil fan or just like a thrilling, fun, and surprisingly funny action horror movie, special guest Rima...

Wow, this slow-burn show picked up the pace in the second half of season three, and we’re totally digging it (pun!).

Join Jason, Veronica, and Amelie as we get into all the details of the second half of Silo season 3, maybe our favorite segment of this series so far.

Yes, this show is about members of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic peacekeeping force whose members wear rings that give them powers (and we love that). But there’s a lot more about this series that has us intrigued. Like, why is it also apparently a gritty murder mystery set in rural Nebraska? And what does it mean that HBO, the king of prestige TV, picked it up, with three legendary writers at the helm: Chris Mundy (Ozark), Damon Lindelof (LOST...
