Single Season Record

You gotta grow up sometime but did it have to be right now?

Amy Sherman-Palladino fools everyone by gathering Parker Posey, Lauren Ambrose and Dianne Wiest(!) and making a kind of terrible generic sitcom. And we watched all of it. So should you?

The most scattershot, convulsive, tag team episode of Single Season Record. Pretty appropriate, really. We just needed more dancing. It's the end of Étoile! Will Nicholas live? Will Cheyenne take his place? Will Gen Gen take off her shoes? Will Derick ever show up? So many questions await you within.

In a way, all TV is interactive and Étoile found that out the hard way when everyone chose not to watch. Including all our guests.

Katie Canavan is new to Single Season Record but not new to Amy Sherman-Palldino dance shows. So it's hard to not talk about Bunheads instead of whatever this is.

We're all mad as hell but we're going to take it for at least a few more episodes.

Derick is disgusted and Harry is confused, but it all works out in the end, except for how we still have the hiccups.

Sulia needs a sleep doctor. Preferably one who speaks English so she doesn't have to read the newspaper.

Here we are, right where we started. But in French. Sometimes.

It's not Bunheads but it is another one season Amy Sherman-Palladino created dance show. As predicted. It's tough being right all the time. Just ask Cheyenne.

You can watch it on Prime! For now!

This is that trailer.

The Russians are coming and they are bringing machetes and maple syrup!

Saja starts a Warrior delivery service, Mr. Han gives himself an eye test, Garrett gets used to a small cell, Sydney gets stung and a baldy steals the show. It's just another day (hour? minute?) in Swans Crossing.

Is Swans Crossing science fiction? Can it be after 38 episodes of not being science fiction? These and other fascinating questions will not be answered in this episode.

The Warrior Is Warmed By The Chase!

It's The Buildng! The generically named show from the woman you can't remember where you remember from. But that's OK because everyone's making it up as they go along anyway.

Watch it here!

Yes, somehow we convinced actual Bryan Greenberg to talk to us about some of the secrets of HBO's 2005 single season show Unscripted. Now we just sit back and wait to be an extra on the inevitable Criterion BluRay release.

It's the end of Unscripted and all we hear is crickets.

July O'Brien and Graham Pilato return to see this show off. Everyone is still traumatized. Derick's never been sadder even though he hardly ever seemed to like it. But that's what finales are for. Revisionist history and taking shots at Shia LaBouef.

Denzel Belin is with us to propose an entire new fall slate of shows that sound better to him than Unscripted, which he thinks is kind of insidious.

Unscripted and Entourage go to New York but only one of them had Emanuelle Chriqui.

Unscripted puts another actor through the wringer. We've got Sulia Altenberg who watched as much of this show as she could before it dredged up too many memories. And not the nice kind.

Lauren Flans is so confused by Unscripted she doesn;t even know what stage of grief she's in.

July O'Brien hated Unscripted so much at first she wanted to cancel on us. Now she might be its biggest fan. 20 years too late, but that's what a confusing ride this show can be.

Hilary Woodward is worried Unscripted isn't giving us enough bits and business.

We talk with an actor about actors playing actors in an acting class about acting for actors. It's Unscripted #3 with Matt Kawczynski like in the title!

The more you find out about HBO's Unscripted, the more layers of actual Hollywood you find yourself under. It's not such a nice place to be.

The Totally Real Adventures Of Three Actors In What We Assume Is LA But Who Can Tell With Whatever This Was Shot On.

Derick doesn't know what to say about that time HBO made prestige TV for babies.

Hurry up and wait for someone else to get ready because it is time for a nudibranquet! Tune your harp and stretch those jaw muscles because you will be yawning! (And playing the harp.)

Matt Kawczynski is with us to ring out the middle and ring in the wait what is happening here?

"The Captain And The Countess"

Brian Sadecki may never come back to Swans Crossing but he will remember it fondly and with a lot of questions.

It's the middle of Swans Crossing and there's no going back! Lauren Flans gets dropped in and is either curious or furious, still can't be sure.

We are back with a special January 6th themed episode of Swans Crossing. Nate and Jordy ride shotgun, whatver that means.

The middle begins! Swans Crossing's days are numbered. It's still a very high number, but it's worth fretting the fact that this show will not last forever. If only it would just start telling itself to never die in the mirror every day.

Single Season Record goes to the movies!

Then it promptly gets into a fight, suffers through a hurricane and kills a franchise.

We are back with the final episode of Firefly. Or maybe we've always been here.

Denzel Belin is with us for the penultimate episode of Firefly but more importantly - laser guns!

We have not been dead, we've just been stuck in a box in a post office. It's "The Message" with Brian Sadecki and Phil Vecchio's brother Dave you heard tell of way back in episode 4.

Matt Kawczynski is with us to discuss starting with the end, not googling Joss Whedon and the return of "that lady."

"War Stories" is not the episode of Firefly Hilary wanted, but maybe it's the episode she needed.

Nothing ever changes.
