TV With My Mom

Hi Viewers. Sorry it's been awhile again! I hope you enjoy this episode where mom does her very best to recap the first season of Rings of Power. I know I sure did. Sorry about the audio issues around the middle of the episode. Mom kept moving her hands around while she was trying to pronounce Galadriel, etc. and the mic picked it up. lol.

Hi Viewers. Had to record this one twice because the good old snowball mic bit the dust. Sounds is a little wonky while we get that sorted. This time around Mom told me all about some Hulu and Netflix shows she is watching. Enjoy!

Hello TVWMM Viewers! It's our 100th episode! Mom and I didn't realize that until the end of the recording, but I supersized this one with some stuff I normally would have edited out (lots of lols). We talk about True Detective and with specific spoilers for the first few episodes of the most recent season, Night Country, so watch that first if you don't want to be spoiled!

I found this episode on my hard drive and realized it was never posted! From September, 2023. Mom and I talk about a bunch of different shows including Below Deck, the Lincoln Lawyer, Lioness, Shrinking, Good Omens, and Staged. We are also just laughing at each other for a good 25% of the episode. Enjoy, Viewers!

Mom and I are so excited to talk this week about the reboot of one of our favorite shows, Justified! We also drink tequila for some reason. Enjoy!

Mom and I recorded this episode weeks ago. I was getting over covid and couldn't remember anything and mom is wearing a retainer so has a lisp. So that's fun. We talk about all the new shows we are watching. No spoilers! We end the episode talking about the first episode of The Last of Us that had just aired. We will probably do a whole episode devoted to the show because it's so good. Enjoy!

This week mom tells me all about her favorite new show, Bad Sisters! Very limited spoilers for the first episode only. Give this show a chance! Don't let the bad audience score on rotten tomatoes scare you. 

Mom and I throw it back to our roots as she recaps the Game of Thrones spinoff, House of the Dragon. Minor spoilers for episode 1 only. Do we all know that the internet is abbreviating the show to Hot D? Enjoy!

On this episode Mom tells me about three shows she has been recommended to watch, For All Mankind, The Bear, and The Old Man. There are some minor plot spoilers, be warned. Also, more shows per episode mean way more tangents so please enjoy.

On this episode of the pod, Mom and I talk about a bunch of new seasons of TV that are either prequels to shows we've talked about before, or sequels. No major plot points are spoiled so feel free to dive in! Maybe it will make you want to download some old episodes from our archives or maybe it will make you want to binge some older shows. Either way, enjoy, viewers!

In this episode, Mom reviews a show recommended by a viewer, Love Is Blind. At one point she says the words "chunky chunky" and it's important for you to know she made butt squeezing motions with her hands, but that obviously doesn't translate to audio. Just want to be sure you understood what "chunky chunky" meant. Enjoy!

Okay viewers, not only is this the first episode in a long time, but it also was recorded weeks ago. I lost the hard drive for a bit that had our intro/outro music and we all know it wouldn't be an episode without the music of John Dodson backing us up. Enjoy this catch up episode! Happy 2022!

Hi Viewers. On this episode, Mom and I run through the 2021 Emmy Nominations and who we think should win. Stick around to the end to hear mom's opinions about Netflix's Sex/Life too ;) 

We're back! This week mom and I talk about her change of heart re: the show Yellowstone and she recaps Netflix's Sweet Tooth. We missed are loyal viewers! Enjoy!

This week mom and I spend a while talking about all the recent TV News and then we dive deep on Wandavision. Don't listen if you don't want spoilers, do listen if you watched the first episode or two and then gave up because you were so confused. There will still be spoilers, but it will help you get in the loop. Also, for the first time ever, we forgot to thank John Dodson for his music and Diane Sullivan for her art. Good lord. I hope they forgive us. Enjoy!

We are back! Masked up and recording (sporadically) again. This week Mom and I talk about the new Shondaland show, Bridgerton, starring Regé-Jean Page, whose name I mispronounced because I was too confident I knew what I was talking about. It's a great show! Watch it! And listen to us talk about it!

Surprise! A new episode of TV With My Mom for your viewing pleasure, Viewers! This time around, Mom tells me all about how she has had a change of heart re: her opinion about Hilary Swank and how much she enjoyed Netflix's Away. We also talk about a bunch of other stuff and laugh a bunch. It will make you smile. 

It's been awhile, but we are back! And so are the Hargreeve's siblings for season 2 of Netflix's Umbrella Academy. Mom and I chat about the differences between the first two seasons of this show about time traveling superheroes and what we liked. Stick around for the word of wisdom and maybe drop my mom a line at tvwithmymom@gmail.com. Hang in there, everybody!

Extra special shout of the week this week to all the folks working in hospitals to process all the coronavirus tests coming in. We appreciate you!

This week, Mom and I discuss a show that is totally outside of my wheelhouse, but that I somehow still enjoyed, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist. Mom didn't love it. She can't get past the science behind how someone can read people's minds through song, and I can't stop smiling while watching it. Check it out on Hulu. And yeah, I googled it and Chinatown does take place in the 1930's, get off my case. Enjoy!

Listen now to get caught up so you can watch this kick ass sequel on HBO.

Happy Holidays, TV With My Mom Viewers! This week Mom and I watched FX's adaptation of a Christmas Carol staring Guy Pearce. Spoilers: it is some seriously depressing stuff. Maybe save it for after the holiday season is over so you don't decide to cancel Christmas. Also, Mom was holding a tissue in her hand for the second half of the podcast and the crinkling is super distracting. Enjoy! See you in the new year!

This week on the podcast I try to talk about the merits of episodic television that gets released on a weekly basis rather than all at once, and Mom talks about how much she would like to see the Mandalorian's face. At least we can both agree that Star Wars has a new cutest character! Spoilers abound so if you haven't found a way to watch the Mandalorian without subscribing to yet another streaming service and you don't want to know what the show is about, give this one a skip. For everyone else, enjoy!

Theme episode this week! All the junk food, reality tv show, staged drama and ridiculous hijinks you could ask for. Who doesn't love all of the reality shows network tv tries to get us to watch in the summer? It just occurred to me though that we somehow missed talking about the Kardashians. How is that possible, Mom? You love them. Maybe some other time. Enjoy!

This week on the podcast Mom and I talk about the TV adaptation of A Discovery of Witches on AMC. Is it like Twilight for history nerds? Yes. Did we love it? Obviously. 

Hello TVwMM viewers! This week on the podcast, Mom recaps one of the many shows networks throw against the wall during the summer hiatus while we wait for all of the other television to come back.

This week on the podcast, Mom and I get real talking about Hulu's Shrill. We have a few qualms with the show, but overall we are in to it. Spoilers abound so don't be lazy and take the 3 hours needed to watch the first season and then enjoy our banter. Or just skip the show and enjoy our banter anyway. Whatever.  

This week on TV With My Mom, Mom recaps the first episode of ABC's Whiskey Cavalier. She can't remember Lauren Cohen's name and keeps referring to her as Lauren Conrad of MTV's The Hills and is convinced that Scott Foley was in the show Alias. He was not. Enjoy!

This week on the podcast, Mom and I get metaphysical talking about Netflix's Russian Doll. No real spoilers for the show, so go ahead and give it a listen. Mostly we just talk about the multiverse theory. It's great!

This week on the podcast TV With My Mom, I have a real world Russian Doll moment and convince myself we've already talked about that Netflix show so instead we talk about a different Netflix show, The Umbrella Academy. It's a classic TV With My Mom recap episode where Mom tries to remember all of the characters numbers and powers. Spoiler alert: she has a hard time. No real spoilers for the show, just the first episode. Enjoy! 

Look, I forgot it was Valentine's Day this week. Sorry. We recorded a podcast on a TV show about a serial killer. Our bad. This isn't at all romantic or light-hearted. Although my mom is there, so things are always at least a little bit funny. You can watch the Ted Bundy Tapes on Netflix now. Or just listen to this podcast. It's basically the same thing (not really). 

This week on the podcast, it's a debate episode. Mom and I both watched the Canadian comedy Schitt's Creek and debate whether or not it's worth your time. Spoiler alert: it's totally worth your time. Enjoy!
