En esta edición de Hazme Tuya, Vladimir y Rogelio arrancan con una curiosa joya musical: la irreverente versión de "Es una lata el trabajar", popularizada por Belinda Washington y Yolanda Ramos. Entre humor, nostalgia y referencias a la televisión española, recuerdan cómo una simple parodia terminó convirtiéndose en un inesperado himno para toda una generación.La primera revisión de la semana es Not Suitable for Work, la nueva serie de Disney+ creada por Mindy Kaling. Una comedia sobre jóvenes adultos que intentan sobrevivir al trabajo, las amistades y la vida moderna, inevitablemente comparada con clásicos como Friends. ¿Tiene personalidad propia o vive a la sombra de las sitcoms que marcaron los noventa? Vladimir y Rogelio ponen sobre la mesa el debate.Después llega una de las sorpresas del episodio: Las Ovejas Detectives, una película que, detrás de su apariencia familiar, esconde una historia llena de misterio, humor y un inesperado mensaje sobre la relación entre los humanos y los animales. Una cinta que demuestra que las propuestas más sencillas, a veces, son las que más terminan sorprendiendo.También revisan Superchava (Supergirl), la nueva apuesta de DC Studios. Con una protagonista que rompe varios de los moldes tradicionales del cine de superhéroes, la película abre una conversación sobre el rumbo del género, los nuevos personajes y si todavía es posible ofrecer algo diferente en un universo saturado de capas y poderes.Además, comentan las últimas novedades de La Casa de los Famosos México, Top Chef VIP, los nuevos realities que llegan a la televisión y qué programas parecen tener mejores cartas para convertirse en el próximo fenómeno de conversación.

"It was the first time that the idea of an HBCU was even a thought to me of a thing I could do... it was so eye-opening to me that there was this whole other part of life in Black culture that I just didn't know anything about... we're sending the message that all of our blackness is good." - Niceole LevyREWIND EPISODEThe 80s TV Ladies are almost done moving!

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST! In this episode of You Have Been Watching, hostsw A. J. Black and Robert Turnbull join forces to attack a topic they've looked forward to for a while - assembling six British sitcoms (or rather, shitcoms) they never should have made. They wade through Heil Honey I'm Home!, Sam's Game, Curry and Chips, Slinger's Day, Bottle Boys and finally (cheating slightly) Come Fly With Me, examining how across 40 years of sitcoms some of these shows are allowed to be made, in what context, and without trying too hard to bury them under cultural recency bias, figure out whether they have any artistic merit all these years on... NOTE: While no problematic language is used in this episode, we do discuss topics which might be considered triggering at some points. Exercise caution when listening. But don't blame us if you don't! Host/Editor A. J.

PBS Newshour co-anchor Geoff Bennett is out with a new book that presents portraits of Black artists who shaped comedy. Black Out Loud is a history that starts with vaudeville and runs through the ‘90s, when sitcoms like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, In Living Color and Family Matters carried the responsibility of representing a varied Black experience. In today's episode, Bennett speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about vaudeville and minstrelsy as the DNA of Black comedic performance, the impact of Amos ‘n' Andy, and comedians like Bert Williams, Richard Pryor and Dave Chappelle.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayTo manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 2 (3.3) Emmy-winning sitcom legend Ken Levine (with credits including M*A*S*H, Cheers, and Frasier) joins Tim and the crew for a hilarious, inside-baseball chat about writing TV comedy, what made those shows work, and why sitcom structure still matters today. Then it’s on: the gang debates their Top 10 Sitcoms of All Time—with plenty of arguing, surprise picks, and at least one “you’re out of your mind” moment. Ken also plugs the West Coast premiere of his show “GUILTY PLEASURES: An Unapologetic Comedy,” running March 13 through April 4, 2026 at the Westchester Playhouse (8301 Hindry Ave., Los Angeles). Plus, he shares stories from his time in sports radio—hosting Dodger Talk and even doing Dodgers play-by-play, including the kind of caller chaos only L.A. can deliver. And because this is the Conway Show, we close with pure SoCal weirdness: the latest on a pantless man in Santa Clarita tied to a barricaded situation that had the area on edge.

This week on Sibling Rivalry, Bob and Monét are talking about sitcoms, whether Gilmore Girls actually makes sense, the similarities between the Full House and Family Matters themes and why Gen Z is missing out on iconic TV theme songs. They compare their heights to other Drag Race queens, talk about twink status and whether facial hair ruins it, and break down what “hung” really means. They build a dream guest list to celebrate the upcoming milestone of ten years of Sibling Rivalry and ask if the Rock might be the greatest showman of all time. Plus, semi truck accidents and their ideal balance of alone time and togetherness in relationships.
