The Episode One Podcast

So close. So close to having a reboot of a show we've done on the podcast, be on the podcast. But we started the Pod in 2017 and Daredevil (Netflix) premiered in 2015 We are pretty close to it happening (Please Girlboss or Powerless) So Daredevil is Born Again, on Disney +. We've seen him back a few times in the MCU, including in Echo! How does this series hold up to the original, and to the recent MCU series? All this plus we end up rebooting Buffy the Vampire Slayer, because why not?

We are back, and as promised we are bringing you Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man! And yes we're a couple weeks late, but to make up for it we're discussing Win or Lose, the new, and controversial Disney + show from Pixar! Is it good despite the controversy? How does the no longer DCU Spider-Man Cartoon hold up? All this and more on the latest episode one pod!

After a post holiday and everything delay, Chris and Steve are back with part 2 of our review of every show we've seen! We take a look at episodes 101-198 We discuss what show we watched, whether it was a success or failure, and how much our podcast played a part in that show's success or failure.

The road to 199 is over. 199 is here, and in just 2 hours and 30 minutes, Chris and Steve discuss Every Episode of their podcast, up to epsiode 100. We discuss what show we watched, whether it was a success or failure, and how much our podcast played a part in that show's success or failure. That's right! There is just too much to discuss in one episode, so we are doing two parts. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays. In this episode we discuss:   Powerless NBC Legion FX Riverdale CW Making History Fox Iron Fist Netflix Lucha Underground El Rey, later Netflix Prison Break (reboot) Fox Famous in Love Freeform Thirteen Reasons Why Netflix Girlboss Netflix Mystery Science Theater 3000 reboot Netflix Baywatch NBC Twin Peaks Showtime Wonder Woman 1975 NBC Glow Netflix Preacher AMC Friends from college Netflix Rick and Morty Adult Swim Defenders Netflix The Tick Amazon Prime Inhumans ABC The Orville Fox Neo Yokio Netflix Me Myself and I NBC The Mayor ABC Will and Grace reboot NBC The Gifted Fox Stranger Things Netflix Star Trek Discovery CBS All Access Punisher Netflix Runaways Hulu Future Man Hulu Jean Claude Van Johnson Amazon Prime WWF Monday Night Raw USA Grownish Freeform Corporate Comedy Central Alone Together Freeform alot of quick hits   The end of the Fing World Netflix Black Lightning CW Altered Carbon Netflix Queer Eye Reboot Netflix Living Biblically CBS McMafia AMC Life Sentence CW Roseanne ABC Alex Inc ABC Krypton SYFY Pretty Little Liars Freeform Lost In Space Netflix Barry HBO Cobra Kai Youtube Red then Netflix Aggretsuko Netflix Bothered Web Series Alexa and Katie Netflix Westworld HBO Arrested Development Netflix Killing Eve BBC america Cloak and Dagger Freeform Sense8 Netflix Take Two ABC Dietland AMC Mission Impossible CBS Our favorite Shows   Castle Rock Hulu Insatiable Netflix Disenchantment Netflix Jack Ryan Amazon Prime Kidding Showtime The First Hulu The Purge USA Murphy Brown Reboot CBS Maniac Netflix Light as a Feather Hulu a lot of premieres   The Connors ABC The Bisexual Hulu Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Netflix She-Ra Netflix Homecoming Amazon Prime Good Trouble Freeform Schooled ABC Roswell New Mexico CW WOw Women of Wrestling AXS TV Russian Doll Netflix Hanna Amazon Prime PEN15 Hulu Umbrella Academy Netflix The Act Hulu What we Do in the Shadows FX PLL the Perfectionists Freeform Ramy Hulu Abby's NBC Twilight Zone CBS All Access Love, Death and Robots Netflix Catch-22 Hulu dead to me Netflix Das Boot hulu Historical Roasts Netflix Veronica Mars Hulu The Boys Amazon Prime BH 90210 Fox Wu-Tang an American Saga Hulu WWE NXT USA now CW Downton Abbey PBS Batwoman CW ALL Rise Cbs Bluff City Law NBC Prodigal Son Fox Evil CBS Emergence ABC/Hulu Stumptown ABC/Hulu Almost Family Fox Kids say the Darndest Things ABC/Hulu Nancy Drew CW Mixed-ish ABC Primal Adult Swim Bob Hearts Abishola CBS Carol's second Act CBS The Unicorn CBS Sunnyside NBC Bless the Harts Fox Perfect Harmony NBC Looking for Alaska Hulu AEW and Smackdown TNT/Fox Watchmen HBO Mandalorian Disney + Dollface Hulu

Welcome back, apologies for the short delay between episodes. things have been... weird in the US. Chris and Steve spend a bit of time decompressing, talking about shows they almost covered but didn't. Including Mr McMahon and Doctor Odyssey. Before we finally get to a new Cartoon on Adult Swim. Invincible Fight Girl! It's a pretty cute show, it fits into the wrestling trope for our podcast, and we liked it. If you want to jump straight to Invincible Fight Girl, skip ahead to about 38:00 Plus, Crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Are three shows too much for one episode? Not when two are long awaited comic book shows and the third has a tie to one of them! This week Chris and Steve take a look at The Penguin a spin off series from 2022's The Batman film The sequel to 2021's Wanda Vision: Agatha All Along And a new Procedural that caught our eye, High Potential starring Kaitlin Olson from The Mick and It's Always Sunny! It's a long episode, so buckle in and let's go!      

We've promised a few all anime episodes, I think we finally delivered. We've been graced by two drastically different Anime adaptations of American products. Each a little controversial, mostly for being more of an anime style american series than an anime done for a foreign audience and then brought to the US. However, the Rick and Morty Anime is even more controversial for..... nobody quite knowing what it is? Chris has never been more confused by a show, and then add on more4 confusion to find the Rick and Morty audience doesn't get it either! However Teminator was really good! All this and more, on the Episode One Podcast

We are so back. We did not just fall out of a coconut tree. But Maybe Chuck Brown, aka Kite Man did? The Spinoff to the great R Rated cartoon series (Batman says FUCK!) Harley Quinn is here. And did someone say Noonan's? Chris gushes about the Garth Ennis Hit Man, Steve provides all the context from the Harley Quinn Series, and we have as much fun as we've had since M.O.D.O.K. All this plus Crossovers and Thirty Second Pitches

Has it really been nearly a year since the last Star Wars show? It doesn't feel like it's been that long, yet it also feels like forever. Has it really been TEN years since the Donald Sterling scandal? And the Clippers still haven't won anything since? Hard to tell what's more cursed, The Clippers or the public's reaction to recent Star Wars media. Well Steve and Chris are here to take them both head on. All this plus crossovers and 30 second pitches!

We are firmly in Chris territory today, as it's a video game adaptation. Although we do learn Steve has played a Fallout game before, he's not sure which one, but he has! How does Fallout on Amazon Prime fare for a longtime (since 97) fan and for someone pretty much brand new to the franchise? Find out all this, some Phantom Menace talk and a whole lot more on a new Episode One Pod.

This week Steve and Chris have a special guest, Cindy Moon (https://www.instagram.com/cindymoon007) She's here to talk about X-men 97 Netflix's The Three Body Problem. We spend a little time getting to Know Cindy, and then a brief digression into Moonfall (F* the Moon! F* the Moon!) Then we get into our two shows! First we dig into X-men 97 (10:30). Talk about our respective histories with the original Fox cartoon show and dig into the controversy behind the showrunner's dismissal. Then we jump over to Three Body Problem (48:30). Cindy gets deep into the depiction of the Cultural Revolution, and Chris talks about how he enjoys "Hard" Sci-fi like this. We also discuss the long history of attempts to adapt the original Chinese Novel. And we wrap it up with Crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Steve and Chris watch Avatar, no not that one, no not that one, no definitely not that year... Yeah the new one, the live action one on netflix. After one hit (One Piece) and one miss (Cowboy Bebop) how is Netflix's latest foray into the world of live action anime? Overall, not bad. Before all that, Chris talks a bit about Madame Web, and yeah, pretty much everything you've heard about it is right.

The MCU is back... the seth MCfarlane cinematic Universe! Wait, oh yeah Echo is part of the other MCU. After a long layoff, Ted is back. And this time he's on the Goldbergs? Not exactly, but we talk about the similarities. Also, Steve never watched either Ted film. We also dive into Echo, which checks a lot of boxes for the podcast. Comic book adaptation, Native Heritage, overall inclusive theories. And violence? It's a great, if slightly tardy episode of the Episode One Podcast!

After a lot of bad timing that led to a month long layoff. Chris and Steve are back. In lieu of a Christmas episode, we're giving ourselves a present and watch Scott Pilgrim Takes Off! And to be a little more timely, the new to America, Such Brave Girls. Hear some stories about the original Scott Pilgrim, hear out tak eon the new one, and discover something new in Such Brave Girls Happy Holidays!

Gen V, Frasier, how could you imagine a better 188th spectacular?   We spend about the first 45 minute son Gen V, how it relates to Pretty Little Liars, and whether it succeeds enough to get Steve to pay for Prime. Then we do a quick check-in on Frasier, where in we discuss Kelsey Grammar's career more than the show. Then we spend the last half talking about shows from the podcast's past and set ourselves up for the road to 199!!!

We've got a short (for us) episode tonight. The twice renewed Krapopolis has finally aired. Was it worth the wait (and the hype?) We probably ended up talking a bit more about the history and scheduling of the show than the show itself. But it was a unique show and a unique story. Let us know what you think, and follow us! linktr.ee/episodeonepod

Apologies for the poor audio quality. Chris didn't realize the worng microphone was selected. He sounds like he's on a boat with Luffy. We finally review one of the One shows, after a missed opportunity in 2020, we have a second chance at One Piece. We marvel at the history of the Manga and Anime, then dig into how they seemingly did everything right in this adaptation. Plus we dig deep into Skrull steve.

Finally, Star Wars on the episode one podcast. Again. But this time, we feature a character directly tied to Star Wars Episode One. Ahsoka is technically Qui-Gon's Great Grand Padawan. (it makes sense if you're weird) Is the Star Wars universe reaching MCU's level of over saturation? Or is this the perfect thing to watch as we head towards the no-content age? All this plus Crossovers and 30 second pitches.

So wait, whose adventures? Chris's Steve's? Lois? Jimmy Olsen's? Mxyzptlk?  It's a new Animated series airing on Adult Swim and Streaming on Max (which we will never get used to saying) It's got an Anime vibe, and it's really fun, enjoy it with us!

Skrulls? we don't got no stinking Skrulls? Or do we? Steve may have been replaced by a Skrull? Who else is a Skrull? What exactly is happening in Moscow? And di MArvel pull off making the MCU version of a storyline better than the comic one... again? All this, plus we enter the Urkelverse, on the episode one podcast.

Special thanks to Arnold Schwarzenegger's Pump Club https://schwarzenegger.ck.page/19c6c79315 Not a sponsor, but we got to see an early Fan Screening and Red Carpet experience via 1iota due to Arnold's Pump Club. This week we watched episode one of Arnold's first TV Show, Fubar! As Chief Action Officer at Netflix, does this True Lies adjacent series work? All that plus Crossovers and 30 second pitches on this Episode One Podcast!

Two very different shows, with one commonality, Chris and Steve were each very afraid! but guess who was afraid of which? at 6:25 we dive into the newest True Crime show on Hulu/Disney + star. The Clearing is a true crime story about the Australian cult "The Family" And it is pretty creepy. Then at 30:35 we cover the newest Muppets Show. Muppet Mayhem! And it's brought to us by The Goldbergs? All this, plus crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Solidarity with WGA. As writers ourselves we hope for both a quick, but effective resolution to the Writer's Strike. This week we are checking out the remake, of the 80s film, on Paramount Plus. Fatal Attraction. Can Pacey live up to Michael Douglas? Will steve and Chris fall in love with Lizzy Caplan again? All this plus crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Join Steve and Chris to discuss what may be the deepest digging a reboot/prequel/sequel series has ever done. A prequel to the 1978 movie Grease! And you know what, it kind of works. But Steve is afraid of the music. The music Jerry!. Steve also watched the brand new (to the US) Hulu Show Am I Being Unreasonable. Another BBC to Hulu transplant, it has serious Life after Beth vibes, but in a good way! All that plus a Riverdale crossover pitch, and some deep 70s 30 second pitches!  

The Arrowverse is dead. Arrow has ended. The Flash is ending, Stargirl is Gone. Batwoman? Lois and Clark's future is unknown. But Gotham Knights is here to avenge, well someone's death (Batman's). While not directly based off the recent video game it shares a lot. Chris and Steve talk about the interesting choices, the semi obscure characters used (to great effect) and discuss if a season 2 would, or should be in the cards. All this plus a 30 second pitch that includes a lot of Spiderman... and a reference to the Trouble comic series.

Hello and welcome to Episode 177! That's a lot of episodes. Like every 11th episode, we take a look back at shows we've done recently and ask the question, did they merit more than just the first episode? But first we chat about the Mel Brooks special, History of the World Part II It's a show that's getting dumped on by critics... but we liked it? It's hard to not like a Nick Kroll/Wanda Sykes/Ian Barinholtz vehicle!

Is the network sitcom back? Well at the very least it's declared death was premature! This week Steve and Chris chekc out Animal Control, the new Joel McHale workplace comedy, and Not Dead Yet, Gina Rodriguez's new show. Both had some surprises in store for our hosts. First, we found out Mr Mayor was cancelled, since one our faves, Vella Lovell, ism on this show! Then Chris went into Not Dead Yet without knowing the twist, Jane the Virgin sees dead people! All this plus crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Welcome back to this week in superhero shows. But this time we have something very different!  A new British comedy where the Incredibles proves true: "If everyone's special, nobody is" A world in which everyone gets superpowers at 18, and the trials and travails of one young woman who's powers haven't kicked in yet. This show is definitely worth a watch, and our review is worth a listen!

Reboot season never ends. This week we've got two hot off the press January Reboots.  First off we talk about the NBC reboot of Night Court. We also take a look back to the 80s and watch episode one of the classic night court. We also discuss, should Abby Stone's name have been Abby Nighter, so we could call it Nighter Court? Then at around the 50 minute mark we dive into That 90's show.  They hit all the classics on this one, it's a pilot with nostalgia +. But honestly not much 90's nostalgia.

This year, something a little different for the holidays. First we go back to November and discuss this year's Christmas Show, The Clauses on Disney Plus. Tim Allen, Elizabeth Mitchell, and did the Elves eat Mrs Claus? And then we look back at the 29 episode one we covered in 2022, and discuss our top 5 shows we ended up enjoying the most! Steve: 1. Single Drunk Female 2. Fleishman is in Trouble 3. The Dropout 4. Reboot 5. Ms Marvel and Shoresy Chris 1. Peacemaker 2. Quantum Leap 3. The Dropout 4. Ms Marvel 5. Single Drunk Female

Fleishman is in Trouble? who you gonna call? Chris and Steve apparently. Based on a recent high profile novel, it's another fantastic Hulu miniseries, with a fantastic  cast. And with stakes this high, Chris and Steve watched Two Episodes! Does the extra context change their review? Can Fleishman escape trouble?  All this, plus Crossovers and 30 second pitches on the Episode One Podcast

This week we have a returning special guest. Chris's ten year old son, Troy! He watched Star Wars Episode One : The Phantom Menace, so we break from our tradition of not actually talking about Star Wars Episode One, to discuss Star Wars Episode One. Then We talk more about movies, and the show that loves them, Blockbuster, on Netlfix! Starring Randall Park, Melissa Fumero and featuring JB Smoove, we were pretty excited about this one. How did it hold up? We also debut a new feature, pitch and alternate backstory for this character!

It's October, and that means one thing! Vampires! We got the interviews, we got the academy, we may have forgotten to let the right one in... First we, briefly, discuss the Peacock reboot of the illfated Movie Adaptation of the YA Novel series, Vampire Academy... It's ok, but we don't discuss it long.   Then we discuss another Book turned Movie turned TV Show, Anne Rice's classic, Interview with the Vampire. How does a book from 1976 that became a 1994 movie translate as a 2022 TV Series? All this plus we get into some Crossovers and 30 second pitches. Happy Halloween!

Last week we talked fake reboot, this week we dive into a sequel/reboot and a prequel! Quantum leap is a reboot of the classic 1980s show that also serves as a sequel show. Steve and Chris dive in with our limited knowledge of the original and discuss the format, the tropes and whether it's got us hooked. Andor is a prequel to the film Star Wars: Rogue One. We discuss a little bit of Star Wars overload, and whether the moody drama drew us in. We also discuss multi episode premieres and whether they need to be judged as a whole. We also do some fun crossovers and pitch the next quantum leap.

No, we're sorry they are not rebooting Star Wars: Episode One the Phantom Menace. But they are rebooting yours, mine and everyone's favorite sitcom, Step Right Up! Wait, I'm being told that wasn't a real sitcom? I don't care, I'm here for it, Staring Rachel Bloom, Keegan Michael-Key, Judy Greer, Johnny Knoxville and Paul Reiser, the new Hulu show Reboot is a blast!

We have Screeners! Thank you Hulu for giving us access to Tell Me Lies so we can bring it to the audience on release day! We've done a few shoes, many of them Hulu in this vein. Based off a book (Little Fire Everywhere, Nine Perfect Strangers) Toxic Relationship (Cruel Summer), Horny (Normal People). It's great to do a show that combines elements of most of our most popular episodes! We're here to watch with you, discuss Tell Me Lies, what hooked us, what didn't work, and of course whether we're watching more. Let us know what you thought of Tell Me Lies (episodeonepod@gmail.com)

A couple firsts in this episode. First a show Steve hasn't watched, and second a british show that is exclusive to Hulu and Star+ Can Chris convince Steve to watch Wedding Season, without giving away the episode 1 twist? Then Steve and Chris review the last year of Episode ones, going back to 154, as a preview of our Next episode. Tell Me Lies

Another month, another Marvel show. But this one is a bit of a fresh take, as it's the first proper comedy! The boys (not not those boys) dig in and take a look at what worked (the lawyering surprisingly) What didn't (besides the CGI). and discuss how this fits into the current "meta" of Marvel TV.  We also discuss HBO Max turmoil for a little bit, and then dig into some crossovers and 30 second pitches.

Don't call it a come back. The 3rd PLL spinoff is here, and we have our resident PLL Expert Steve ready to go. Brought to us by the depraved mind of Roberto Aguire-Sacasa, this is a dark horror type take on the Teen drama. Is it Dark than Riverdale and Sabrina? Can it live up to the original. What property should Roberto remake next? All this and more on the Episode One Podcast.

Today we have a 3 for 1. 3 shows featuring strong female leads. We start off talking about the Lana Condor led Boo Bitch on Netflix, a miniseries with a strong premise. Then we discuss the Phoebe Robinson vehicle, based off her book, Everything's Trash. Then we close with A show originally scheduled for ABC, but now on Hulu, Maggie! It's a fun ride, we cover each show fairly quickly (for us) then get into some pitches for shows that combine all three premises. Enjoy this week's Episode One Podcast!

Welcome, to the Disney + Podcast... Well not exactly, but can you blame us when they're pumping out hit after hit? This week another comic book show (our specialty) as we take on Ms Marvel. To summarize our take, Chris's wife, who hates shows about teenagers, loved this pilot!  We also have some pretty good crossovers and pitches this week!

Not even Covid could stop us... though it could delay us, from fulfilling our destiny and reviewing a show starring the hero of Star Wars Episode One... this podcast's namesake if you believe Steve. So, how is the much-awaited show? Can it hold up to things, and did this show inadvertently create the Flea multiverse? all this and more on this Star Wars episode one podcast.

"So what is Shoresy?" "well it's" "Huh?" "Well it's a spin off of Letterkenny" You'll get it once you watch it. Perhaps the most Canadian show we've ever done (It's as canadian as Normal People was Irish). Join us as we recap the pilot (having never watched letterkenny) and sort of fall in love with Sudbury. Also we obviously cross this over with the Mighty Ducks.   

Mike Myers is back! Mike Myers? Hard to believe he hasn't done comedy basically in 14 years, but he is back, with a Netflix Show. Chris and Steve try to dissect, is it funny? does it work? is it for us, or just for Mike Myers? One of the most interesting shows we've done on the Episode One Podcast in awhile, The Pentaverate, plus crossovers and 30 second pitches.

What's real? Is Obi-Wan real? Is this podcast? Is Steve? Moon Knight is here, perhaps the biggest leap the Marvel Cinematic universe has taken thus far... or at least in terms of TV Shows. How does the show stack up to previous Marvel shows with more established characters? How does the Star power of Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke fare?  And is this show more proof that the Freeform Cinematic Universe and the Marvel Cinematic Universe are one and the same? All this plus crossovers and 30 second pitches

Fresh off the Oscars, we're here to talk about Oscar Host Amy Schumer! Well, we also talk a little about other stuff that happened that night. But then Back to Amy Schumer, she has a new show on Hulu, and the Episode One Podcast was curious, so we dive in! We also found another Comic book Show! Can you believe it? DMZ, based off the Brian Wood - Riccardo Burchielli Vertigo series, adapted into a miniseries starring Rosario Dawson! An eclectic pair of show this week, and we may have had a bit more fun talking about them than we did watching them. Join us, won't you? On this week's Episode One Pdcast!

A new record for us, 3 shows, almost under one hour! We debated doing one big crossover and having the show be "Winning flags dropout" but, that was too confusing, even for us. This week we discuss the Hulu docudrama about Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos, a docu drama about the 80s Showtime Lakers, AND a somewhat based on a true story about pirates!  

It's here! The 155th Episode Spectacular! We take a look at two great new episode ones, Bel-Air, the reimagining of The Fresh Prince, and Single Drunk Female, the latest addition to the Freeform Cinematic Universe. We also take a look back at shows we've watched more, and there are quite a few! Also Crossovers, and a 30 second pitch for the ages... Is Bel-Air the real story and Fresh Prince was the "How I met your Mother" style retelling?

And we thought we picked two shows with nothing in common? Both shows are all about fathers! Sure in one you don't know the father is, but in the other the father is a Nazi Asshole! Remember in December when we were afraid of Comic Book Tv Show overload? Turns out the Cure is James Gunn! And the sequel show/spinoff/reboot continues. Does it work this time? All this and crossovers and 30 second pitches!

There are two types of shows the episode one podcast must do. Comic book shows and Star Wars shows. Boba Fett is back, the Mandalorian isn't yet. This is the second live action Star Wars show, how does it hold up. Can it differentiate itself from the Mandalorian, or is it more of the same? (not that more Mando would be bad). Also a lot of takes on Star Wars Episode One, the other thing we discuss. All this plus 30 second pitches and Crossovers!

And just like that, there's a new podcast episode. This week Steve and Chris take a look at another sequel series. Sequel series have been sort of a backbone of this podcast. They keep evolving, with the latest being one no one thought would ever happen. And it's good? Also while she couldn't be on the pod, Chris's wife, a long time Sex and the City fan gives her thoughts to Chris. All this plus 30 second pitches and crossovers!
