Once More With TV! – Details, episodes & analysis

In our season one finale, Alex and Liza are off to Ancient Greece(?) with Nerd Mystorian Austin Taylor to repair their relationships with their wives in Xena: Warrior Princess’s “The Bitter Suite”. Together they’ll get excited about puppetry, make Karl Urban spontaneously combust, hyperfixate on a man named Joxer, and not understand the tarot. Listen, folks, there’s a lot to unpack.

Austin’s delightful show with co-host Brenda, Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries, is on the Maximum Fun network wherever you get your podcasts. They’re also @nerdmysteries on Instagram, Tiktok, and Twitter/X. Austin is on @sailorsctaustin on any social media where she wants to be found.

Bonus Episode or Emergency Episode? This week, Alex and Liza are on a journey through the land of Oz to discover the power of (definitely platonic) friendship in 2024’s “Wicked - Part 1”. They’ll get into all of it - Cynthia Erivo flipping upside down, Jonathan Bailey’s himbo antics, superfluous key changes, and the highlight on Ariana Grande’s nose. Will they be changed for good?

Once More with TV! is a podcast celebrating TV musical episodes, from the sublime to the subprime. Co-hosts Alex Kownatzki (he/him) and Liza Truschel (she/her) are diving into every musical episode of TV ever made - and assigning scores for everything from orchestral arrangements to vibes. We’re on a mission to form a comprehensive power ranking, and find out what it is about TV actors being forced to sing that gives us that sweet serotonin. And, of course, which show did it best.

This week, Alex and Liza become masters of karate and friendship for everyone with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’s “The Nightman Cometh”. Laughs are cheap - we’re going for gasps! (You do not need to pay the troll toll to listen to this episode.)

This week we do touch on the subject of sexual assault - if you're inclined to skip that, we recommend jetting right past 13:00 - 16:00.
