Going Dutch is a comedy that premiered on FOX in January 2025. Starring Denis Leary as the loudmouthed and arrogant U.S. Army Colonel Patrick Quinn, who finds himself reassigned to a remote base in the Netherlands after his General hears an unfiltered rant at his expense. Far from the war zones of his past, Quinn is punished with a command position at the "least important Army base in the world", which happens to be led by his estranged daughter, Captain Maggie Quinn (Taylor Misiak). Critics and audiences greeted Going Dutch as a sharp, satirical take on military bureaucracy that successfully weaponizes Leary's signature "cranky charmer" persona. Reviews highlighted the strong comedic chemistry between the lead trio, particularly Danny Pudi as Quinn's dry-witted executive officer, Major Abraham Shah. Is this show going to be more "Army Strong" or just "Base-ic" with the boys? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode and find out if this deployment is worth the tour of duty. Starring: Denis Leary, Taylor Misiak, Danny Pudi, Laci Mosley, Hal Cumpston, Catherine Tate, Joe Morton, Dempsey Bryk, & Arnmundur Ernst Björnsson www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD
