Pilot Season
There's a first time for everything! And this is a podcast all about the first (and sometimes last) episodes of TV shows. Your hosts Patrick and Alan look at everything from the humble beginnings of classic shows to the forgotten flops you were never meant to see.
Adam West plays Ty Lookwell an actor who may not be a detective, but he played one on TV! And that makes him more than qualified to solve crimes... Or so he thinks.
This weeks backdoor pilot was episode of MacGuyver with hardly any Richard Dean Anderson but a lot of Froggy the Dog.
Tangents include: a brief discussion of how long, Touched by an Angel was on TV for, the flaws in Fight club, Alan's MacGuvyer related claim to fame, Fat Grandma and what it really means to be President of Ireland (hint: night time zoo trips).
Get out your Hawaiian shirts and overly short shorts! This week we look at the backdoor pilot for J. "Digger" Doyle which is actually an episode of Magnum PI.
In the late 90s, this Fawlty Towers adaptation had a very brief run as a midseason replacement.
Did it deserve better?
Imagine if you took That 70s Show and transplanted it from suburban Wisconsin to suburban Luton. Then you'd have this.
Other topics include: Cream cheese and how lame Ireland was in the 70s.
This week we go back to the 1970s. 1978 to be exact. A time of funk, mustaches and wizards. This week we look at Doctor Strange.
