  • Ep 144 | Happy Days: "My Favorite Orkin"

    3 MAY. 2024 · Robin Williams may have been a talented performer with a long career full of highlights, but this Happy Days episode (which was one his first Hollywood appearances) leaves a bit to be desired Apparently Ritchie is convinced he saw a flying saucer but no one will believe him! The good news is he was ultimately right, and the pilot of that saucer just so happens to be looking for him. Of course the pilot is revealed to be Mork from Ork (of Mork and Mindy fame), who is an alien with a weird sense of humor and a lot of zany energy The story takes a turn for the worse when Mork reveals he'll be taking Ritchie back to Ork to experiment on, but fortunately for our hero he's got a fighting ace up his sleeve...

    11 ABR. 2024 · It's finally time for the Boob Tube Boys to cover the only sitcom that once had all of America asking, "did I do that?!" Family Matters coverage begins with a bang, as Steve Urkel infiltrates a local gang with a surprisingly talented artist in its midst Brian, Spencer, and Van discuss their childhood hours spent with Family Matters, how Urkel's antics hijacked a show that was supposed to be centered around Reginald Vel Johnson, and what sorts of magazines Mother Winslow was reading in 1991.

  • Ep 140 | Quantum Leap: "The Wrong Stuff"

    4 ABR. 2024 · Quantum Leap leaps right back into your ears as the BTBs take one more trip into the past alongside hologram man Al and handsome Frankenstein man Sam. This time around Sam finds himself stuck not in the body of a glam rocker, nor in the body of one of those women, nor in the fleshy meat tomb of a gangster or something. No this time around he's in the body of one of man's closest relatives... a chimpanzee! Sam's mission is to save the chimp he's inside of (eww that sounded gross) by making the chimp the best astronaut it can be. And yes, that's the real plot of this episode. So quit monkeying around and listen in!

  • Ep 139 | Quantum Leap: "Glitter Rock"

    22 MAR. 2024 · The story of Quantum Leap is simple, well no it isn't but let's say it is. Sam (Scott Dracula) goes back in time and inhabits the bodies of random people while his friend Al (Dean Stockwell) helps him out using a computer that's real good at probabilities. This time around Sam finds himself inside the body of a guy called Tonic, a 'glitter rocker' in the vein of KISS who is due to be stabbed in a few days if Sam and Al can't figure out who the stabber is The episode includes a whole bunch of awesome fake music, weird guys with largely fake British accents, and of course a sex, drugs and rock and roll* *Note: Scott Dracula is actually not cool like his name implies and is instead very much against the ideas of sex and drugs. Rock and Roll, however, may remain provided it doesn't get too intense

  • Ep 137 | Batman Beyond: "Meltdown"

    8 MAR. 2024 · It's a cold day in Gotham as the Boob Tube Boys arrive just in time to see a sexy sultry voiced doctor show up and do some quasi-necromancy to give noted Batman villain Mr. Freeze a new lease on life! The BTBs show up to watch a show that all three thought was beneath them when it came out in the late 90s. Also there's mention of a Batman villain called Dr. Phosphorus? It turns out he was actually the inspiration for this show's big bad- Blight. A glowy skeleton man whose name is far less interesting than 'Dr. Phosphorus'
