Earth-2.net Presents...

Will goes obscure with Up on the Rooftop. Then Mike presents an episode of Eternal Light from 1944, which retells the story of The Maccabees and the birth of Hanukkah.

Will takes a trip to Bloom County for A Wish for Wings That Work. Then, Donovan Morgan Grant returns with his friend Harrison Chute to discuss the iconic anime and manga franchise Ghost in the Shell. Leading up to the 2017 American movie, the guys discuss the kinky, esoteric tendencies of the original manga; the philosophical ponderings and relentless nudity of the transcendent 1995 animated film;...

Today's special is The Leprechauns' Christmas Gold, and Will cannot figure out what it has to do with Christmas. Then Mike spreads more Punisher-themed seasonal joy by discussing Punisher: Red X-Mas, Punisher: Silent Night, Punisher: X-Mas Special, and Punisher MAX X-Mas Special.

Will covers Frosty's Winter Wonderland, which is weird. And Mike plays a radio adaptation of Miracle on 34th Street.

After three long days of talking about The Smurfs, Will finds something actually decent in The Town that Santa Forgot. Then, in a team-up some thought would never happen, and others thought probably shouldn't, Dave Probert and Pandy Wilson join forces in what is supposed to be a review of their media consumption of 2016. Yet, somehow, they also end up talking about darts-themed game shows from the...

Will covers even more mothersmurfing Smurfs with The Smurfs: A Christmas Carol. Charles Dickens would be Smurfing Smurfed about this. After that, Mike discusses The Punisher Holiday Special #1-3.

There's less than a week until Christmas and what more is Christmas about than coming back from the dead? What? That's Easter? Oh shit. Well, zombies are the reason for the season this week on Dread Media. First up, Desmond and Jeff review a quiet and contemplative Arnold Schwarzenegger film (apparently they exist) about a parent's love for their child in Maggie. Then, Rich the Monster Movie Kid h...

Will thinks 'Tis the Season to Be Smurfy can go Smurf itself. Then the detectives of Dragnet have 24 hours to locate a missing statue in a tale called "The Big Little Jesus."

Ian and Dave close out the year by beginning a new show: Steven Moffat's Jekyll. In episode one, Doctor Tom Jackman has left his family, quit his job, and has gone into seclusion. He hires Katherine Reimer to act as a go-between for himself and his dark side. Things grow more complex when Jackman discovers he is being followed by several parties, and Mr. Hyde finds out his name from Benjamin Lenno...

In The Smurfs Christmas Special, Will tries to make some Smurfing sense of a wholly nonsensical plot. Then Dan and Mike try to make sense of Batman: Year Two. All around, there's little success.

Will watches Bluetoes, the Christmas Elf and wonders why Santa has to be a jerk. Then Wendee, Dan, and Mike complete their Ewok adventure by discussing Ewoks: The Battle for Endor, which stars an oatmeal salesman, an assistant principal, and a Dame.

The Bears Who Saved Christmas has talking teddy bears. Will isn't sure if there's much more than that. Then listen as the detectives of Dragnet investigate the somber tale called ".22 Rifle for Christmas."

First, Will heads to Canada to look at A Cosmic Christmas. Then, in spirit of The Twelve Days of Christmas, and the 50th anniversary of his passing, Christian, Pandy, and Kelly discuss each of their 12 favorite Walt Disney songs. (Followed by a swift kicking of the songs and movies they have less-than-fond feelings for.) Which song does Pandy insist has gay undertones? Which of Christian's picks b...

Mike dives into the Earth-2.net: The Show archives one more time and pulls out the final installment of The Fantasticast, in which Des and Mike (from 2008) discuss Amazing Spider-Man #1, Fantastic Four Annual #1, and What If? #1. First up, though, Will was happy. Then he watched Noel.

On the 12th day of the Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar, Will has for you The 12 Days of Christmas. And Mike brings three Indiana Jones Read-Along Adventures: Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

This week we have a jam-packed show. First, a conversation with Darren Lynn Bousman (Repo! The Genetic Opera and the Saw sequels) about his brand new movie, Abattoir. Then, Devil Dinosaur Jr. gives us a Stay Scary on the time travel film Counter Clockwise. Then, Darryll and Desmond return almost eight years after discussing this film to talk about the brand new director's cut of The Exorcist III....

After some real stinkers, Will finds something worth watching in The Berenstain Bears' Christmas Tree. (And, yes, that's spelled right, Internet.) Then Mike discusses the controversy surrounding Batman #12.

Will tries to figure out why Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas is a thing that happened. Following that, Dan and Mike compare two versions of Captain Marvel: the 1941 serial Adventures of Captain Marvel and Shazam! from 1974. Also, tune in to learn The Lesson of the Day.

Will takes a look at Oy to the World, starring Fran Drescher. Then there are two Read-Along Adventures: Star Trek III: The Search for Spock and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.

Nestor, the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey is the first Rankin / Bass production Will talks about this year, and it might be one of the stranger ones at that. Then: It's Christmas morning, 1980-something, and Will and Dan are anxious to unwrap animated specials based on toys and games! Will they be as excited once they actually see what Santa left in their stockings? (Spoiler: No.)

It's that time once again. Hannah Krueger joins the guys for their annual Twilight suffer-fest, this time in the form of Eclipse. Please visit http://tranquiltirades.wikia.com.

As it turns out, all The Wish that Changed Christmas changed is Will's tolerance for bad Christmas Specials. Then, in The Whistler's "Letter from Cynthia," a doctor must choose between revenge and his oath to preserve life.

Hey, an Actor!'s Year of Grey concludes with their longest episode to date, dedicated to the late, great Sir Christopher Lee. Such is his filmography that The Brothers Wilson open the show with a look at the seminal British folk horror epic The Wicker Man before looking at his very first portrayal of literature's greatest vampire in the Hammer horror classic Dracula. And what will Pandy think of c...

Before Wendee, Dan, and Mike discuss the finer points of Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure, Will discovers you don't have to wear pants to enjoy Ziggy's Gift.

Will takes a look at a Norse Holiday tradition with Disney's From All of Us, To All of You. Then it's time to cover your mouths and wash your hands, because Pandy and Christian discuss maladies and their cures in fiction. What cure's side effects include drowsiness, sexual nightmares, and sleep crime? Who is unfortunate enough to suffer from Cobbles? And which medication did the late, great Robin...
