It’s One Tree Hill! With such themes as basketball, questionable parenting and no others. At least for the pilot!

The Scott boys are at it again, stealing school busses, reading poetry, shooting hoops, and shitting on their awful dad.

This CW staple brought a new crop of teen heartthrobs James Lafferty, Chad Michael Murray, Hilarie Burton, and Sophia Bush. And throw away your iPod nano, this sound track is all you need baby! With needle drops from T.I., Dashboard Confessional, N.E.R.D, and Jet you’ve got a teenage obsession on your hands.

We’re 3 nerdy dudes who got one pod, we love TV and don’t shut up with a Yeti mic and a Riverside Subscription

It’s REBA! Starring SNL vet Kenan Thompson (aka Reba McEntire), this show originally started under a different name and premise all together, but became the southern living sitcom to end all southern living sitcoms.

With a pilot cast boosted heavily by an appearance from Nell Carter, Reba became a syndication darling and it’s easy to see why. So come grab some ersters on a half shell and get the camera ready for a shotgun wedding, It’s Reba!

Hold on to your bellybuttons, it’s KYLE XY! Fresh from the gooey forest floor to your living rooms, he’s a deeply confusing teen heartthrob savant!

From show runners Eric Bress and J. Mackye Gruber (Final Destination and The Butterfly Effect) this is ABC Family’s paranormal teen drama with all the action of Seventh Heaven if they all pissed their pants in the first 10 minutes.

Starring Matt Dallas, Marguerite MacIntyre, Bruce Thomas, April Matson and Jean-Luc Bilodeau, this Pacific Northwest family will never be the same!

So is he an alien? An Amnesia-riddled runaway? Time to find out!

What do three guys who went to college in the midwest know about Dairy? An awful lot. Derry? Well that’s a new one.

This week the guys do Derry Girls! The BBC4 coming-of-age comedy taking place in embattled Northern Ireland. From show runner Lisa McGee comes a smattering of her own high school stories and memories with sharp, hilarious writing. We follow a 16 year old Erin (Saoirse-Monica Jackson), her cousin Orla (Louisa Harland), and best friends Clare and Michelle (Nicola Coughlan and Jamie-Lee O’Donnell) in the 1990’s as the Troubles raged but neared their end.

The show found a global audience after Netflix grabbed the rights and the rest is history. Join us this week for a truly terrific high school comedy.

Give us some more, time in a dream, give us a pod, that we can stream. It’s time to go back to school! It’s NBC’s weirdo tentpole comedy, Community!

While you can probably take a wild guess that Max, Geoff, and Rich are all big fans and that they will just gush over this show. There are a lot of things to unpack. With tremendous cast and writing comes a complicated legacy and bizarre network choices that make this show rise to peak fandom on uncertain ground. While it’s easy to look back on this truly A++ cast and say “duh of course this is a hit” this show took a lot of chances and was the launching pad of some massive careers. Donald Glover, Gillian Jacobs, Alison Brie, Joel McHale, John Oliver, Yvette Nicole Brown, Danny Audi, Jim Rash, Dan Harmon, and Chevy Chase… hard to imagine all those big names together at once now.

The guys talk exposition excellence, casting choices, bottle episodes, and more, so make sure to find la biblioteca and join our study group on Community.

Hold your horses, it’s time to trot on over to HBO for the pilot of LUCK! The ironic named show that was pulled after several animal rights violations. Take a terrific cast, heavy hitting executive and writing team, and gorgeous cinematography and remove those expectations.

Vampires? Teens? History Homework? It must be 2009 babyyyyy! This week is the CW's best performing pilot of all time. It's the Vampire Diaries!

The hit show that's not taking advantage of the momentum of Twilight at all. The show is based on the eponymous book series by L.J. Smith and ran for 171 episodes. (That's a lotta blood suckin') The boys cover the banging soundtrack that's straight from your iPod mini and a teenage swoon-worthy cast. Vampire Diaries centers around Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev), an orphaned teenager living in Mystic Falls Virginia as she slowly discovers her own powers while falling in love with a vampire 140 year older than her (problematic much??). Whether you're a massive fan of the show, or if you're brand new to the Diaries, follow along, we want to hear what you think of the pilot!

Put your feet up, lean back in your seat and enjoy your in-flight meal because this trip takes us to Botswana! The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency is a popular book series adapted by the BBC. They took one pass of the book and came to the world with a dream: make the longest pilot in human history.

In all seriousness, this show is just straight fun and whimsical with great sincere moments sprinkled through.

We get a terrific performance from Jill Scott, Anika Noni Rose, Lucian Msamati and a massively welcome appearance from Daniel Oyelowo and freaking Idris Elba??

Break that international barrier and dive into this show with us!

Want to know something you and I probably have in common? We both watched Squid Game. How do I know? More than HALF of all GLOBAL accounts of Netflix watched it. Do we ever have monoculture like this anymore?

Welcome to International Month! Every episode in February will be about show not made in the US, so come along with us for a real no brainer of a pick. We take to South Korea for the brain child of Hwang Dong-Hyuk and follow the story of Seong Gi-hun, a deadbeat dad with a gambling problem seriously in-debt. He gets the opportunity of his dreams to win billions of won and keep partial custody of his daughter, and soon realizes he’s playing with his own life.

This week on TVPL the Pilots discuss the TV show 'You'. Not “you” per se, but maybe all of “us?” Like categorically “you” could be “me?” No, not “you” specifically, “you” in the sense of really anyone, the royal “you?” No, that’s not the right “you.” Actually maybe it’s not “you” like “us” maybe it’s just “you” as the seasonal hyperfixation of “you”. Third base.

Anywho, they cover everything from the show's origin and creators Sara Gamble and Greg Berlanti, the portrayal of the main character Joe Goldberg by Penn Badgley, the stylistic choice of internal dialogue, and the unsettling and charming nature of the show. Joe's manipulation tactics, some outdoor activities and the expert camera work in the show. Stay tuned for a wild in-flight question and a thank you to all of our frequent flyers. Hosts: Geoff Kerbis Richard Inman Max Singer

Xena?? We xeen the whole damn episode!

Apparently the ancient Greeks invented the Spin-Off. The guys tackle this beloved Hercules character that got her very own action thriller series. Lucy Lawless stars as a warrior, hero of the commonfolk, and gay icon! Look, is it Breaking Bad? No. Is it a campy nerdy property with goofy sound effects, you betcha.

Come see what's left the guys shaking their head and riding along with Xena, the second most popular syndicated show of it's time! Bonkers!

The guys pin their pilot wings to their bespoke $10,000 suits and head over to the inexplicably long USA pilot about a top New York City law firm. Tonight is gonna be a movie, because this pilot is as long as one.

The show captures the life and career of super lawyer Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) and his new wunderkind protege Michael Ross (Patrick J Adams). Also turning in exceptional performances are Gina Torres, Sarah Rafferty, Rick Hoffman and the Duchess of Sussex herself, Meghan Markle.

A tribute to Captain Raymond Holt, Mr. Andre Braugher.

What more can you say about this show than nearly perfectly written characters and non stop goofy premises? We dive into the FOX darling that should have been NBC darling, Brooklyn 99. We get introduced to almost every member of the full and final cast except for Hitchcock and Sully, so let's get reacquainted with our favorite members of the NYPD. Jake (Andy Samberg), Amy (Melissa Fumero), Terry (Terry Crews), Boyle (Joe Lo Truglio), Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz), Gina (Chelsea Peretti) and of course Raymond Holt (Andre Braugher).

It's the End of Year Spectacular! Thank you all for staying with us as we watched more TV than we did during lockdown.

While we objectively LOVED every show we covered this year, unfortunately there were some shows that came out in 2023 that weren't up to snuff! Can you believe it?? BAD television??

Well it's true, and the guys watched three shows that sadly will not see the bright lights of 2024! Geoff and Max got bit by the IP bug choosing to do the TV show versions of National Treasure and Grease, with Disney+'s 'The Edge of History' and 'Rise of the Pink Ladies' respectively. Rich went the route of the frenzied social media critic and chose a chaotic pick of HBO's 'The Idol' starring The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp.

Will the guys find anything nice to say about these three short-lived shows? Will Max even be able to find his show since it was fully scrubbed from streaming? Start putting all your favorite shows on DVD's again and find out!

What happens when you take the seriousness and rhetoric of the West Wing and make it about sketch comedy? A record-breaking successful pitch to TV networks! So why can't we find the show anywhere? What went wrong?

We invite friend of the pod, author and comedian Lana Schwartz (New Yorker, Build Your Own Romantic-Comedy) to dissect the biggest swings and misses of a show that really everyone was banking on. We talk about the ubiquitous Sorkin writing style, the amazing cast, and the oodles of cash thrown around for what was sure to be the next hit.

Wow, looking back on this episode from way back in July, we were so different then. So young, so naive, so nervous about doing this narrative focused podcast only about cartoons and reality TV. Well anywho, here's our episode about the pilot of Scandal. We're talking about the episode that launched 1,000 binges. Scandal is our next foray into the Shonda Rhimes universe and who better to lead us there than our Ambassador to Shondaland Korama Danquah (check her out on our Grey's Anatomy and Glee Episodes!)

So come with us and get your Olivia Pope power suit on, it's time for Scandal!

This week the TV Pilots are joined by the hilarious Gianmarco Soresi (Netflix, Comedy Central, Seeso even!) to discuss CW’s insane Archie universe murder mystery sex romp. We talk about turning Sunday morning cartoons into gritty TV shows, the legitimate theater, and why the entire town of Riverdale is so horny!!

We also tackle the subjects you’ve been curious about like if implied twincest is ever okay in TV, psychotically-timed lesbian kisses and high schoolers with 2% body fat. Come aboard and buckle up it for this slightly uncomfortable, horny, tongue-in-butt-cheek ride from Greg Berlanti.
