The gang is back on the Britcoms! This time out, they discuss a little-known show called Vicious. It's strainge that it's little-known becuase it starts Derek Jacobi and Ian McKellen!!!! So you know it's gonna be great. But how great? Listen and find out!

He's got Power, Man. I apologize for that pun, especially since a lot of you won't even get it. This time out, the gang dives back into Marvel television with Luke Cage! What happens with the villain is the most interesting character? Listen and find out!

More Bob is always better right? We think so. After the Television Classic that was The Bob Newhart Show, the Buttoned Down Mind struck again with Newhart in 1982. Did Bob manage to catch lightning in a bottle twice? Probably. Listen and find out!

This episode is DYNOMITE!!!! Yeah, we really did have to. It's a spinoff of a spinoff!!! What kind of sorcery is this?? Unfortunately, Maude is not readily available to stream, so we had to skip over the 3rd All In the Family spinoff in favor of that spinoff's spinoff, Good TImes. Was it really a good time? Listen and find out!

Our discussion of the Marvel television universe continues with Agent Carter. Why did thsi show not last any longer than it did? Should it have? Will these questions ever get answered? Listen and find out!

The Norman Lear-A-Thon continues with the first spinoff of All In The Family: The Jeffersons! How does this show compare to it's parent program? Well, it ran longer, and at least one of the hosts finds it to be a better show. Listen and find out who!

The gang heads north of the border again to discuss a wonderful show called Corner Gas. Jeff describes it as "Exactly what I think of when I hear the term 'Canadian Sitcom'" and that's a good thing. Enjoy!

Wow! 100 episodes! If we were a TV show we'd be ready for syndication! But we aren't, so we'll just say thank you for sticking with us this long! To celebrate, the crew decided to list their top 5 TV Parents. Listen and see if you agree with their picks, or if they need to be put in hiatus!

There are a LOT of crime procedurals out there, so it's not surprising when one gets lost in the shuffle. What IS surprising is when a show as good as Lie To Me is one of the lost. Tim Roth plays a human lie detector. Can you tell if the hosts are being sincere with their thoughts? Listen and find out!

This time out the crew travels north of the border to discuss that Canadian phenomenon LETTERKENNY! Jeff is a newbie to the show, but he's guided by Cory and Regina who are experts. Is the show too polite for America? Listen and find out!
