Will and Hannah have reached episode 93, and oh my, what have we here? Could it be the show finally living up to the potential of its premise and tie-in nature? Could it be one of the most epic tie-ins that the show has had so far? Could it be the prelude to an incredibly massive shift to the show? But to get there, they will have to get through a case of the idiot ball getting passed around, an episode implying something pretty awful, and some out-of-character moments. Join The Heroes as they cover "TAHITI," "Yes Men," and "End of the Beginning."

Potential is the watchword as Will and Hannah begin their coverage of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD. While some episodes show it, others seem to be barely trying. Plus, things get uncomfortably handled rather quickly. Also, US 1 is totally in continuity. Whether you agree or not, a new series begins with "Pilot," "0-8-4," and "The Asset."

Sigh no more, audience, sigh no more / For The Heroes have reached some Shakespeare / Listen to their thoughts on how well this translates / And on who's the real stars of this play / What do they think of the small changes / And who just plain steals the show? / Join Will and Hannah for Much Ado / And sing Hey, nonny nonny

Will and Hannah are taking a trip to a Cabin in the Woods! Just how meta can this movie get? What interesting connections does it have to the larger Whedonverse, and to a wider universe beyond that? Who is Kevin? And what is the monster at the end of the movie? Listen to find out!

Big Damn Heroes is at episode 82, and what appears to be the meat of Dollhouse season two! Isn't that cute? Topher and Summer Glau are making friends! Surely nothing could go wrong there! Old Whedon favorites come out of the woodwork, all sorts of neat plot twists and advancements are made, and things continue to get more and more fucked up. But at least there's a few laughs here and there! Join Will and Hannah as they cover "The Public Eye," "The Left Hand," and "Meet Jane Doe."

Will and Hannah have reached episode 76, and it's getting a little horrible. The Heroes take a look at the 2008 web series Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, how the writer's strike gave rise to it, how its format works for and against it, and how it's noticeably smaller cast carries the series. Is it still as shiny as when it came out? Is this possibly the darkest thing Whedon's put out? Join Will and Hannah for the sing-along to find out!

Will and Hannah have hit episode 75, and they're leaves on the wind. Watch how they soar. They turn a hard eye on some of Serenity's gaping plot holes, question the necessity of one of the characters being there, and have a good little rant about River Tam. But, as many negative points as they have, they have a fair bit of praise. Join them as they wrap up their Firefly coverage with Serenity!

It's Big Damn Heroes 74, and we're wrapping up our coverage of Firefly. We're also being treated to some rather delightful fanservice. Will and Hannah cover the three unaired episodes, as well as the final episode of the series. Some are quite good, while others leave something to be desired. Plots that potentially could've happened are discussed, The Heroes try to figure out what led to what in broadcast order, and the general sentiment of this episode is "If only." Join Will and Hannah as they cover "Trash," "The Message," "Heart of Gold," and "Objects in Space."

It's episode 73, and that motherfucker is back again. We have what Will and Hannah consider to be possibly one of the best episodes in a Whedon series, the misuse of a sonic screwdriver, and one of the more useless characters finally getting hit with the plot stick. You also learn way more than you ever wanted to about Hannah and Will! Join them as they cover "Out of Gas," "Ariel," and "War Stories."

Will and Hannah have hit episode 72, and they've realized a few things. One: No matter if he's played by a bitty Zac Efron or Sean Maher, Simon is kind of a massive dickbag. Two: Hannah and Will's ratings of an episode can differ on whether or not they enjoy the scenery, and that Hannah is probably going to the Special Hell. Three: They're starting to put an effort into characterizing someone who's gotten the short stick. And four: Some of the positions they're taking on the portrayal of religion are a touch offensive. Join Will and Hannah as they cover "Safe," "Our Mrs. Reynolds," and "Jaynestown."
