The Incomparable Superfeed

Guillermo del Toro’s waited his whole life to make a “Frankenstein” movie, and now he’s done it. We carefully select the (Oscar-nominated!) film’s best bits, chop them up, and then sew them back together in the grossest way possible. (We know Del Toro would approve.) You don’t need to have a degree in Frankensteinology to take a seat at the lympahtic charcuterie board, but it helps! Jason Snell wi...

Olivia takes a break from writing to share a meticulous and meditative hobby. Sandra Wong with Olivia Dade.

Welcome to our first episode of 2026, fellow nerds! We’ve got a far-ranging episode for you this time, from the tents of the Great British Bake Off to the New York clubs of Saturday Night Fever.

Annette Wierstra with Kirsten Goruk and Micheline Maynard.

Like a mocking plant that just keeps growing, Vulcan Hello returns to break down the latest episode of “Starfleet Academy.” Why don’t they just play basketball? Why does Holly Hunter love furniture? Why should we try French-Klingon fusion? And who’s the sweaty man in that Mugato costume? Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

An adult film star visits the office… and she’s Jeremy’s girlfriend, who is decidedly not a choreo-animator.

It’s the second episode of “Starfleet Academy,” and things are picking up speed. Political negotiations via college debating society! Betazoid mental shields! Many, many, many robots and aliens. But is it too much, or just enough? We break it all down, reassess “Star Trek Voyager” and complain about theme songs, and ultimately make an Important Contribution To (Head) Canon with the introduction of...

After 800 episodes, we are in serious danger of repeating ourselves, but that never stopped us before. Some of our most prolific panelists fulfill the prophesy and draft Incomparable drafts. Jason begs them to give him new ideas, because after 800, he’s almost run out. And we use our powers for good and evil to mark classic episodes for deletion. Jason Snell with Annette Wierstra, Dan Moren, David...

Noah Hawley’s TV take on the Alien franchise, “Alien: Earth,” is crashing into a building near us, bringing gross aliens old and new, suspicious synths, terrified (and bloody) humans, and a new class of hybrid life forms with the minds of children and superhuman bodies. Does the show give us enough Xenomorphs? Is the eye alien a breakout fan favorite? Was replaying “Alien” on a different ship a go...

We start the new year with a mission to celebrate one of our favourite Rob Reiner pictures: When Harry Met Sally. Although it’s been a while since our agents last watched this movie, it remains a strong example of a 90s romantic comedy. Join us to celebrate the fashion, the music, the supporting cast, and finally answer the question: can men and women be friends? Annette Wierstra with Shelly Brisb...
