A former Doctor Who companion. A team of both superheroes and villains, some that are leaping off the comic page into live action for the first time.

As Donovan and Chris make their way through the first season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, the answer turns out to be almost everything. Please visit...

Dan and Will celebrate the holidays by subjecting each other to Christmas cartoons and sitcoms, some of questionable quality. Which ones? Telling would ruin the surprise. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.

"Davis Guggenheim who?" we hear you ask. Why, it's no less than the critically acclaimed documentary film-maker behind Al Gore's Oscar winning, carbon-based thriller An Inconvenient Truth and guitar-fetish piece It Might Get Loud. The brothers have great fun discussing their musical ability, their spin on American party politics, and the charisma of the former "next President of the United States...

In "A Death in the Family," someone is killing off Brett's relatives one by one and suspicion falls on other members of his family. And in "To...

This week, we try something a little different. You see, Desmond and Duane planned on reviewing the Netflix original horror comedy directed by McG: The Babysitter. Then former Married to Movies cohost (and Desmond's wife) asked to watch it with him. Not one to turn down watching a horror film with his non-horror fan wife, Desmond obliged. So, Desmond and Duane review the film, with Megan interject...

This week, Darryll and Desmond return to the oeuvre of Dutch action-horror maestro Dick Maas by taking a look at two of his killer elevator movies. First up, the 1983 understated Dutch flick Der Lift, and then his own American remake in 2001's Down. Actually, they only like one of these movies so they end up talking about it a lot.
