Show Club Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This week we’re doing it LIVE! Commentary style as we watch the 1988 classic Made For TV Movie Dance Til Dawn. This one has everything and everyONE you could want from an 80s movie. It’s Prom Night! There are new dates, old dates, surprise dates!

Apologies for the feedback sounds. We were working through some technical issues. It’s been cleaned up as much as possible. We hope it’s not too annoying.

You can find Dance Til Dawn here: https://youtu.be/OKQG87x8GmY?si=SkuvkLvFVecTZUGe. So, cue it up and watch along with us!!

Next month, it’s spooky season so we’ll be watching season 1 of Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire now available on Netflix and AMC+.

Let’s head back to 2008 and discuss season 1 of the cult classic, Fringe. This was an interesting conversation. Evelyn loves it (she picked it!), Rachael really likes it, but Kerri could not get into it. The pseudo-science was just too pseudo for her to get into. But given some of the things Evelyn and Rachael mention about later seasons, maybe she’ll jump ahead a bit and see if she likes future episodes better.

But everyone can agree that Joshua Jackson is amazing. Having his character be a conman gives him an interesting point of view into what Walter is doing and how he behaves. Perhaps this is one of those series that could be ripe for a reboot. 

Next month we will be watching the 1989 Made for TV Movie Dance Til Dawn, available on YouTube, and doing a live commentary along with it!

This was an interesting one. Rachael obviously loves Veronica Mars (this was her choice). Evelyn liked it well enough. Kerri HATED it. The acting is fine and it’s really just the actual storylines and plot points that are the issue. Can we talk about the guest stars, though? Jessica Chastain! Adam Scott! Amanda Seyfried! Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin! All outstanding. 

We also really appreciate that there was never anything romantic between Veronica and Wallace. They’re just besties and that’s great. 

Next month, Kerri has selected Inside Man. The 2022 limited series starring David Tennant and Stanley Tucci, available on Netflix.

This month we discuss season 1 of The Uncanny Counter (season 2 out now!). The characters in this show are so great and fleshed out so well. Do you guys enjoy just being thrown into the deep end of a show’s lore or is the info dump important? Where are all the adults in the school while there’s attempted murder happening? But So Mun was a total badass for calling out the strongest bully to try and put an end to everything. And we hope the redemption arc that was started for Hyuk-woo at the end of season 1 continues in season 2. What exactly are the rules for non-interference in human affairs? Because those lines go wibbly-wobbly quite a bit. 

Next month, Rachael has selected Veronica Mars, Season 1, available on Hulu.

It’s finally time to talk about Taskmaster! Kerri got Rachael and Evelyn to watch series 9 and, spoilers, THEY LOVED IT!! It has become one of Evelyn’s happy shows when she needs cheering up. We talk a bit about the history of Taskmaster and the various international versions that exist. There is also a Prize Task! Which might not be the best thing on an audio podcast… We discuss some outtakes, which contestants we liked, and, of course, the shid. 

Next month, we will be watching season 1 of The Uncanny Counter, available on Netflix.

We conclude the heist of the National Mint of Spain with Money Heist, Part 2! We discuss the predictions we made (off air) and which ones we got correct and which ones we got wrong. We did okay.

We still don’t know what Tokyo is doing there. So, the Professor and Berlin are brothers? Whoops… Denver thinking Stockholm Syndrome is an actual physical illness is one of the most amazing character choices ever. The one thing we had an issue with is the timeframe at the very end after the cops decide to storm the Mint and take them down. Way too much time passes between seeing the cops get set-up and then them actually going into the Mint. How much time was that? 

Next month, Kerri makes Rachael and Evelyn watch Taskmaster Series 9. You can find all episodes on the official Taskmaster YouTube Channel or check out the link below.

This month Rachael aka Cairo, Evelyn aka Charlotte, and Kerri aka Juneau discuss Money Heist - Part 1 (La Casa de Papel). Which really should have been called House of Paper because that is a much better title. The flashbacks in this show serve a really good purpose of filling in the blanks and also keeping the story moving along. Tokyo is kind of useless at this point. But we do stan Raquel and Monica and Nairobi. The Professor can totally get it and we really want him and Raquel to be a real couple but there’s no way that’s gonna happen. 

Next month, we continue with Part 2 because this show is just so good!

This month we discuss FX’s 2018 limited series Trust. It’s a show where the main story is not the interesting part and it’s difficult to watch a show where all the main characters are horrible people. However, the show is able to get us to understand these characters even if we don’t like them. 

And then there’s Primo. He is possibly the most interesting character in this whole thing. Big props to Luca for pulling that performance off.

We also cast swap! Who else would we want to see in these roles?

Come back next month when we’ll be discussing the Brazilian Netflix drama Money Heist (Part 1).

This month we discuss Bulgasal: Immortal Souls. While we do like the show, it does have some issues that could be sorted out. Mostly concerning the flashback. Do they work as a narrative device or detract from understanding the characters' full motivations? Why did none of the Bulgasals ever talk to each other over the 1000 of years they’ve been in existence? It doesn’t make much sense that Ok Eul-Tae never tried to get Hwal on his side. Also, a map would be extremely helpful.

We also do a cast swap! What other actors would we cast in these roles?

Our next show will be the 2018 limited series, Trust. It originally aired on FX and is available on Hulu (and possibly Disney+ outside of North America).

We’re kicking this off with Alice in Borderland, Season 2 (also a little bit of season 1). Did this even actually happen or not? If not, does it even mean anything? We do, however, very much appreciate episode 2 and the camera choreography employed to cover the naked guy’s sensitive bits. 

We also give a try at casting some of the roles for an American remake. You know it’s inevitable. Chris Evans as naked guy?

Our next show will be Bulgasal: Immortal Souls, available on Netflix.
