The Oz Network - TV & Film Recaps

It's time to strap yourselves in for the biggest ever podcast recorded in the history of Australian Survivor podcasts as we join forces with not one, not two but THREE fellow podcasts to talk about the fourth season of Australian Survivor and give our wide ranging thoughts as we head into the merge! Ben is joined by Chris from the Previously on Australian Survivor podcast, Jake & Cassie from t...

It's time to get your calendars out and celebrate an anniversary month as we bring you the first in our four week series celebrating a variety of film anniversaries across September! What better way to kick things off than with one of the biggest movies of all time with the 1997 blockbuster Titanic, which celebrates it's 20th anniversary this year. Just how much can Ben defend this film and Colin...

It's time to triple your watch with our Third Watch weekly recap as we move into the 18th episode of the 1st season Men. From limited Bobby & Kim scenes through to some funny Bosco & Yokas scenes, it's a diverse and fun episode that changes back into the Third Watch that we know and love after a slight change in tone last episode. And with another listener question to address and some grea...

It's time to get fun, funny and sassy with our Australian Survivor recap as we discuss this weeks episodes with season 3 contestant Craig I'Anson! In a mammoth recap, Craig goes over his thoughts on the two episodes this week, including what his take was on another non-elimination episode and how he feels Australian Survivor is slowly building itself up into a great show. He also gives us his take...

We continue our exit interviews for this season of Australian Survivor with the 12th contestant voted out from the 15th episode that aired September 11th, 2017. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Get those scalpels out and those minds out of the gutter as we move into our latest Nip/Tuck episode to recap with the 14th episode of the 2nd season, Trudy Nye. With the last episode cliff-hanger still deep inside of it, we try and add a bit of difference to the story-line with some domestic violence and some hand surgery. Because that will fix things won't it? There is also some epic scenes with...

We are one episode away from the finale of The Amazing Race Canada, and this is the episode that has it all. Drama, tears, fears, and Crokin-Curl! Colin and Rossi cover everything from the use of Alpaca's in Canada to the new hybrid sport of Crokicurl that has swept over at least 25% of those surveyed.  From there it's all about Korey finally emerging as a star, even if he was flirting with a rand...

It's your favourite time of the week when we can sit down, talk and not spoil you about a recently released movie as Colin and Ben decide to get dark and short with our review of The Dark Tower. In what was a movie with high expectations, does it live up to them with our co-hosts? Can Colin find some reasons that Idris Elba could be a good James Bond? Does Ben know what this movie is given he does...

As we get ever closer to the pointy end of the first season of our EXCLUSIVE Third Watch recaps, we now move into one of the most memorable episodes in the history of the show, Ohio! In what is one interesting episode, we somehow find how an episode that is close to 20 years old can remain so politically relevant all these years later. There is also some very topical references in the episode as w...

It's another week filled with Australian Survivor goodness as we bring in a respected voice to help us recap another two episodes of the show, and this time we bring in season 3 contestant Kylie Evans to help us decode both episodes this week! Kylie gives us her take on two big episodes, including the emergence of Luke and Michelle as big players moving forward. She also gives us her viewpoint on...

We continue our exit interviews for this season of Australian Survivor with the 11th contestant voted out from the 13th episode that aired September 4th, 2017. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

As things continue to get exciting in our Nip/Tuck coverage we move now into the unlucky episode (by number at least) with the 13th episode of the 2nd season Oona Wentworth! It's an episode that has an ending that you really didn't see coming, and an episode that involves people peeing in soap dispensers. And for some good fun there is also some hacking up of bodies, drug use and a bunch of quote...

Colin and Rossi are back to talk about all of the good and bad in episode 9 of The Amazing Race Canada, as the race lands in Regina, Saskatchewan. Colin can't resist but slam Saskatchewan more than Ben slams New Zealand, but finds more good things to say about the great TV comedy Corner Gas than anything in this episode. While your hosts struggle to figure out what the racers are even doing in the...

You would think after the first one we'd be done and want to move on to some real films wouldn't you? Well you thought wrong as we once again bring you another filler episode by giving you a taste of just how bad of a film maker Ben is with his follow up to Kill Phil in the aptly titled Kill Phil 2! And it seems as though the first one was about Colin being kind, as this time around he really does...

It's that time of the week for another Third Watch recap episode as we movie into the 16th episode of the 1st season Nature or Nurture! In what is another entertaining episode, Ben & Brandy go over some pretty detailed story-lines that focus on a few of the main characters and even gives our main man, JIMMY, some actual content to use. There is also some shirtless scenes to excite everyone, so...

Another very interesting week of Australian Survivor is in the history books now and it's that time of the week to recap all the goings on and of course we need the help of a former contestant and this week we are joined by Australian Survivor season 3 contestant Des Quilty! In one of our biggest, most diverse and entertaining episodes yet, Des takes us through his thoughts on this season as well...

It's time to check your reality at the door and get yourself into a dream as we move into the 12th episode of the 2nd season of Nip/Tuck and review the episode Julia McNamara! With Ben just gushing over every aspect of this episode, can he sway Nick into a dream like state to ensure he loves it as much too? With Ava and Annie in one episode you know he'll be going to extra lengths to do so, so muc...

It's time for another spoiler free review, and this time it is Colin that is flying solo so that he finally can have a chance to talk about War For The Planet Of The Apes. It's the third chapter in the reboot/prequel/anything but a Tim Burton remake of one of the longest running film franchises of all time. Colin talks all about his love for the original and new series, particularly the one and on...

We continue our exit interviews for this season of Australian Survivor with the ninth contestant voted out from the tenth episode that aired August 27th, 2017. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

It's time for another spoiler free movie review and time for another solo Ben episode as he takes a look at the movie Logan Lucky. After covering so many films with Daniel Craig for Double Oz Seven what does Ben think of him playing someone slightly different than James Bond? How about Channing Tatum? Adam Driver? And basically everyone else in the film? Who in this movie really isn't necessary? H...

It's time for you the listener to decide what is more entertaining, watching 3 teams of Racers get plastered for half of this leg, or listen to Colin try and host this episode 24 hours after having dental surgery?  On the race's latest trip out of Canada and into the great country of Panama, there are plenty of drunken flubs, Ivana jabs, and so many Panama signs that this could officially be the m...

As we prepare to bring you some pretty awesome content in a busy few months here on The Oz Network we thought we'd take a break from criticising and analysing REAL films and step back into a realm where our hosts were capable of 'making' films and critically go over a 2004 movie made by your second favourite co-host Ben called Kill Phil. That's right, Ben ACTUALLY made a movie and he made Colin wa...

It's time to make sure you know who is shooting who and not accidentally shoot them (it does make sense once you see the episode) and we too try to make Kim feel jealous in recapping our latest Third Watch episode Officer Involved from the 1st season! And if you thought Ben couldn't get any worse, then perhaps you need not to be from France or New Zealand as well, we kinda gets a bit worse. But Br...

Holy Guacamole we are back to cover another double episode of The Amazing Race Canada. We return to Canada's capital of Ottawa for all the double U-Turn drama, farting horses, and fence building stories from Karen and Bert. Colin also finds out what the perceptions outside of Canada are on Mounties, which are apparently half way between corny and cool. In episode 2 we travel to Newfoundland, which...
