This time on the couch, we take a look at Supergirl and wonder if there's a feminist agenda, Heroes Reborn on NBC, Ash vs. Evil Dead on STARZ, and AMC's Walking Dead 90 minute Morgan Episode. We also discuss things that happened in 1995 and wonder why Pablo Escobar got such a bad rap but Frank Sinatra didn't. The post Ash vs. Evil Feminism appeared first on The Couch Potato Podcast.
Just catching everyone up on what I'm watching this fall: Shonda Thursdays, CW Comic Universe, HBO's The Leftovers, AMC's Walking Dead, and more!
Scott and Sara discuss the penultimate episode of AMC's Walking Dead spinoff series without the benefit of a good night's sleep or a decent (flu) coffee shot. Things are seemingly calm in the burbs of Los Angeles but Sergeant Shithead and the National Guard are making people feel uneasy. Sara and Scott try to process this chapter of the zombpocalypse freshly after experiencing the Demon Barber of Salazar Street, Travis' big sniping day out and The first of hopefully many adventures for Nick Pukeopolis and Insurance Guy. Madison continues her quick trip to becoming born again hard soccer mom and Alicia and Chris play dress up and destroy. It's another busy day at the end of the world, come put your feet up and enjoy the drivel.
Omar's back to talk about AMC's Walking Dead prequel, Fear The Walking Dead. Does it need more process and less teen angst? What's with the stupid driving? And will we keep watching? Dave explained a few EHG facts before Liv learned subtlety on the Face Off report and Tara made us Domer, and we went around the dial with documentary spoofs, vintage reality shows, dysfunctional comedy joints, and crappy Star Wars gifts. Will Dave un-Pierce Gene of Bob's Burgers? Is Sarah's X-Files Canon submission out of this world? Did Sorkin win or lose this week? And who used his or her brain best -- i.e., not eating them -- in Game Time? It's an apocalyptically good time on this week's all-new Extra Hot Great.Special Guest: Omar Gallaga.

At this week's meeting, Matt has a direct message for our good friend and Netflix CEO, Reed Hastings. Then Matt and Quintin dust off the old hate train for the return of AMC's Walking Dead, disagree about The Wolf Among Us Episode 2, laugh over Batman/Superman casting and get angry over misuse of intellectual property in regard to Birth of Man: A Minecraft Film. After all that bonding, Matt realizes his discovery of Neil Gaiman's books may have ruined his previous enjoyment of Neil Gaiman adaptations. All that and...that's about it in this week's adaptation of Charles Dickens' Bubble Gum Cult: Chapter 15. Hey, this wasn't in the book!
