    The finale of Nathan Fielder’s “The Rehearsal” was a hit. The commitment by Nathen Fielder for such a short series is astonishing. This gets us thinking. Do you need to be willing to lose an audience in order to gain an audience? Is risk taking part of the creative process?


    Is the new Apple TV original movie “Fountain of Youth” worth watching? Rhea reviews while Angelo and Jay give their thoughts. Are we all on the same page?


    NEXT- BRITISH CORNER: Rhea reviews the drama “The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society” on Netflix. You might not be able to say it, but why you must watch it!


    Angelo continues by reviewing the Netflix documentary “ Pee-eee as Himself”. Then Jay finishes us off by telling us why you should watch “Sirens” (Netflix), The reality dating show “Pop the Balloon Live” ( Netflix), and the newest (and last) Mission Impossible movie.

    NBC decides not to cancel the office after season 1 based on an early rendition of The 40-Year-Old-Virgin. This gets us into a conversation about Steve Carell. Renowned for his early career, what has he done over the last 5 years? Where do we feel Carell is best?



    ESPN finally announces that it will offer a separate streaming option for its channel. What is the price? Most importantly, is the price WORTH it? What recently does ESPN really bring to the table?


    At 62 years old, Conan O’Brien is making a comeback. One of us does not agree…. It does start the conversation however. Which other stars in the past have had a resurgence later in their career?


    BRITISH CORNER: Rhea reviews the second season of the Australian crime drama “Black Snow”

  • NBC is taking a gamble with the NBA. Did a poor decision by HBO spur the start of Netflix?
    2025/05/15

    Send us a text

    NBC is getting back into the NBA. The massive cable syndicate plans on replacing its nighttime programming with the hardwood two nights a week. Do we think that this is a good idea? What makes NBC want to take this leap of faith despite the NBA’s ratings in free fall?

    Nathan Fielder’s latest stint sends us into a conversation about making entertainment out of innocent bystanders. Our feelings are split on this and whether this type of humor is even funny.

    Writer Peter Biskind gives a shocking revelation on the start of Netflix. We describe the details of this quintessential “what could have been” moment in streaming history.

    IN ADDITION: British Corner- Rhea previews the Netflix movie “The Dig”. PLUS, Angelo tells us what to expect from Netflix’s new show “Nonnas and more!

  • Episode 139: Bill Bilichick has lost his flow and the new fad in television
    2025/05/08

    Send us a text

    Bill Belichick gets upstaged by his 24 year old girlfriend JOR-DON Hudson during their conjoint interview with CBS. Most, if not all, of the her interruptions were cut cut. How do we feel about these edits? Should they have kept them in or at the very least provide access to the full length interview? We reflect on other interviews from the past that made our perception of a person change forever.

    We discuss the Japanese fad “micro dramas”. What are they? Will this type of content work in America? How will the streaming services incorporate this fad into their content, if at all?

    Donald Trump announces that tariffs will be placed on foreign films. Should we make an effort to get filming back in America?

    ALL OF THUS PLUS: British corner- Rhea previews the "The One That Got Away” on Acorn. PLUS, why you must watch the new Marvel movie “Thunderbolts", and Angelo tells you what you must watch this week.

    All this and MORE… you do not miss a second of this episode!

  • Episode 138: Soccer, Marketing, and the end of Ryan Reynolds
    2025/05/01

    Send us a text

    Angelo, Jay, and Rhea are back to discuss the ongoing drama between Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, and Justin Baldoni and whether the gossip that surrounds a celebrity affects the way you view their work. Up until recently Ryan Reynolds was a beloved movie star; are people less likely to go to his movies now that they know what a phony he is?

    THEN, it's a discussion of Apple TV+ and how it has the best shows on streaming and the absolute WORST marketing. How is it possible that you can't walk two feet without seeing a billboard for iPhone but great shows like Your Friends and Neighbors and The Studio seem to wallow in obscurity?

    ALL THAT PLUS: British corner, a preview of Rehearsal, and Jay's misguided belief that promotion and relegation would work in America.

  • Episode 137: Is It Time to Break Up Netflix?
    2025/04/24

    Send us a text

    Angelo, Jay and Rhea are back to discuss the $45 Billion year that Netflix is poised to have, an unfathomable sum for an entertainment company, and if its size is actually bad for the quality of shows and movies. In the 1940s, the US Government forced movie studios to stop owning theaters, is it time for streamers to stop making their own content?

    THEN, the gang discusses the latest season of Black Mirror, and the triumph of the show as a whole (well, Angelo and Jay discuss it, Rhea refuses to watch after hearing what the first episode of the first season is about!)

    All that PLUS: the British segment, a review of Sinners on the teen segment, and much MUCH more!

  • Episode 136: SNL, Aimee Lou Wood, and Where We Draw the Line in Comedy
    2025/04/17

    Send us a text

    Angelo, Jay, and Rhea are back to discuss the controversy over this weekend's SNL and the joke it made about White Lotus star Aimee Lou Wood's teeth. She called it "mean and unfunny" while SNL has remained quiet on the subject. Was it mean? Was it uncalled for? And where do we draw the line when it comes to comedy?

    THEN, the gang discusses the lawsuit that the estate of Michael Crichton has filed against the producers of The Pitt. Apparently The Pitt was originally designed as reboot of ER and was then transformed into the hit show it is today, so a lawsuit is not completely unwarranted. But, do they have an actual case?

    ALL THAT PLUS: a discussion of the state of documentaries, British and Teen corner, and Angelo's review of Your Friends and Neighbors.

    IT'S ANOTHER CAN'T MISS EPISODE!
