Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship.

Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard.

Allie and Tyler return once again to tackle the super steamy new movie “Hit Man” starring Glen Powell and Adria Arjona and directed by Richard Linklater.

There’s arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman. No matter how many times he’s been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City’s greatest defender. With so much Bat content out there, there’s plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank! This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman’s history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters.

Join host Daniel Cohen, Pop Break’s former Film Editor and Resident Bat-Maven, as he brings on several guests every month to share his passion for the one and only Dark Knight. From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned. Bottom-line: If you’re a Batman fan, this is required listening.

We’re going back to the animated well this week, and it’s a big one! Daniel is joined once again by the Director of Podcasting of the pop break, Alex Marcus, as the two look at the very memorable 2000 animated film, Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker.If you’re a fan of the 90s era animated world of Batman (who isn’t?), this is your episode. Daniel and Alex break down their overall thoughts on Batman Beyond, discuss the iconic flashback sequence in the film that harkens back to the animated series, and yes, they open the episode by discussing the two versions of the film. Check out this link to see the video from Watchtower Databasecomparing the two versions, which Dan & Alex frequently mention in the episode.

The two delve deep into the character of Terry McGinnis, Tim Drake’s role in the story, and analyze the eternal battle between Batman and Joker, with Daniel coming in with a hot take on the famed flashback sequence.

While Batman Beyond is known for being set in the future of the Batman world, plenty of time is spent on what makes the Batman and Joker conflict work so well, which is front and center in this movie.

Batman Beyond. Robin chatter. Batman and Joker. Is this Mark Hamill’s best turn as the Joker? Seems like we got some vintage Batman talk on this one! Give it a listen!

Mean Girls is a teen comedy directed by Mark Waters and written by Tina Fey. It is based on the self-help book Queen Bees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman. The film opened in theaters on April 30, 2004.

The movie follows high schooler Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) as she tries to fit in after years of homeschooling abroad. Cady starts hanging out with the Plastics, a clique of popular, stuck-up girls. The group consists of Gretchen Wieners (Lacey Chabert), Karen Smith (Amanda Seyfried), and leader Regina George (Rachel McAdams). Cady agrees to help her friend Janis (Lizzy Caplan) get revenge on Regina so Cady can go out with Regina’s boyfriend Aaron (Jonathan Bennett).

Other characters include Janis and Cady’s friend Damian (Daniel Franzese), math teacher Ms. Norbury (Tina Fey), principal Mr. Duvall (Tim Meadows), and Mrs. George (Amy Poehler).

Upon release, Mean Girls garnered praise for its humor and cast. It grossed $130 million on a budget of only $17 million. It went on to become a cultural phenomenon, generating catchphrases, fads, and homages. It also led to a made-for-TV sequel and Broadway musical which got its own film adaptation.

Aaron, Josh, and Stefan talk about their histories with Mean Girls before going into the plot, performances, and humor. They also discuss its legacy and the possibility of a proper sequel.

Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship.

Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard.

In their first episode on their new home on The Pop Break feed, Allie and Tyler discuss the 2024 movie “Miller’s Girl” starring Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega. Join them as they bang the drum that there are simply no heroes in this movie, break down the accents that went in and out on this movie and, of course, decide if it was sexy enough for them. Can a movie that’s wall-to-wall literary dialogue be a turn-on? Listen and find out.

Special thanks to Mallory Johns for the introduction music.

To see more of our hosts, check out Tyler’s writing at USA Insider, SYFY and NBC Insider. Find Allie’s work at Parade and Business Insider!

Digimon Adventure follows the eight DigiDestined children who team up with their Digimon (short for Digital Monsters) to save the Digital World. The DigiDestined are Tai (Joshua Seth), Matt (Michael Reisz), Sora (Colleen O’Shaughnessey), Izzy (Mona Marshall), Mimi (Philece Sampler), Joe (Michael Lindsey), T.K. (Wendee Lee) and Kari (Lara Jill Miller).

Digimon Adventure launched the Digimon anime franchise, which includes the direct sequel Digimon Adventure 02. In North America, Saban Entertainment combined the two short films from the first series and one from the second to create Digimon: The Movie. A remake of Digimon Adventure aired from 2020 to 2021.

Aaron and Josh discuss their relationship with Digimon before going into the show’s plot, characters, animation, and monster designs. They also discuss the inevitable comparisons to Pokémonand the legacy of the Digimon franchise.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here to talk about Futurama for its 25th anniversary.

Futurama is an animated sci-fi comedy series created by Matt Groening. Groening, best known for creating The Simpsons, developed the show with David X. Cohen. It originally premiered on March 28, 1999 on FOX.

Though FOX canceled the show in 2003, success in reruns led to four direct-to-DVD films and a revival on Comedy Central. The show ended in 2013 but returned for a second revival on Hulu in 2023. The show has currently aired 150 episodes.

The series follows the adventures of Philip J. Fry (Billy West), a New York City man from 1999 who is cryogenically frozen for a thousand years. In the future, Fry becomes a delivery boy for his descendant Professor Farnsworth (also West). Other members of the Planet Express crew include the foul-mouthed robot Bender (John DiMaggio), one-eyed mutant Leela (Katey Sagal), accountant Hermes (Phil LaMarr), intern Amy (Lauren Tom), and crustaceous physician Dr. Zoidberg (also West).

The Pop Break interviewed one of the show’s stars, Maurice LaMarche, in 2013.

Futurama has garnered acclaim from both viewers and critics, winning the Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Animated Program in 2002 and 2011. Footage of the show appeared in An Inconvenient Truth starring Former Vice President Al Gore. Gore has voiced himself on the show several times.

For another adult cartoon, you can listen to Josh and Aaron’s Family Guy retrospective.

Futurama is streaming on Hulu

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here to talk about the 25th anniversary of Family Guy.

Family Guy is an animated sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane. It premiered on FOX on January 31, 1999. Though FOX canceled the program in 2002, the network revived it in 2005 due to its success on DVD and Adult Swim. Since its debut, it has aired over 400 episodes. The show will move from Sundays to Wednesdays this March.

Family Guy follows the Griffin family, who live in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island. Creator Seth MacFarlane voices dim-witted father Peter, as well as talking dog Brian and evil baby genius Stewie. Alex Borstein plays housewife Lois, while Seth Green and Mila Kunis (originally Lacey Chabert) voice teenagers Chris and Meg.

MacFarlane also voices the Griffins’ neighbor Glenn Quagmire. Other neighbors include Joe Swanson, voiced by Patrick Warburton, and Cleveland Brown, voiced by Arif Zahir (originally Mike Henry). Prior to his death, Adam West played a fictional version of himself, Mayor Adam West.

Family Guy has been a lightning rod of controversy since the beginning, with jokes about many taboo subjects. Critics have both praised and criticized its reliance on cutaway gags. MacFarlane and Borstein have won Emmys for their voicework, and the show was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series in 2009.

Aaron and Josh talk about their past with Family Guy, before discussing the first episode. They also go into the show’s characters, animation, humor, and legacy.

For another FOX staple, you can listen Aaron and Josh’s podcast on 24.

Family Guy is streaming on Hulu.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here to talk about Dragon Ball GT for the 20th anniversary of its American debut.

Dragon Ball GT is a sequel to the anime Dragon Ball Z. First airing in Japan in 1996, it premiered in the US on Toonami on November 7, 2003. It ended on April 16, 2005. In addition to the show’s 64 episodes, a TV special titled A Hero Legacy released to home video.

In the series, a wish gone wrong turns Earth’s defender Goku (Stephanie Nadolny, Sean Schemmel) back into a child. With the help of Trunks (Eric Vale), his granddaughter Pan (Elise Baughman), and the robot Giru (Sonny Strait), Goku must return the Black Star Dragon Balls to Earth in one year or the planet will explode.

Unlike its predecessors, Dragon Ball GT is not based on a pre-existing manga by Akira Toriyama, though Toriyama was involved to a limited degree. The first saga was originally condescended into one episode in the US, to prevent alienating viewers with its tone. Regardless, fan opinion of GT is mixed at best.

Aaron and Josh talk about their history with the show before going into its plot, characters, animation, and signature transformation, Super Saiyan 4. They also discuss if GT is canon or if new series have replaced it.

For more anime, you can listen to Josh and Aaron’s podcast on Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball Z. You can also listen to Josh and Amanda Rivas on Anime x Pop.

Dragon Ball GT is streaming on Crunchyroll and Funimation

Senior Writer Aaron Sarnecky and Senior TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky are back. This month they’re celebrating the 30th anniversary of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Joining them is Anthony Desiato, founder/owner of Flat Squirrel Productions and host of Summoning the Zords.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is the first iteration of Power Rangers, which is based on the Japanese franchise Super Sentai. The first episode aired on Fox Kids on August 28, 1993. The show ran for 145 episodes and ended on November 27, 1995, in the lead up to the Alien Rangers miniseries.

The Power Rangers are a superhero team of “teenagers with attitude.” Together they defend Angel Grove and the world from evil. The initial Rangers are Jason (Austin St. John), Billy (David Yost), Zack (Walter Emanuel Jones), Trini (Thuy Trang), and Kimberly (Amy Jo Johnson). Quickly joining their ranks in Season 1 is Tommy (Jason David Frank).

Power Rangers took the world by storm, and new series continue to follow. 2017’s Mighty Morphin reboot movie was a commercial failure, leaving the franchise’s future on the big screen uncertain.

Aaron, Josh, and Anthony look at the show’s first episode, also discussing their history with the franchise and the 30th anniversary special on Netflix.

You can listen to Josh and Aaron’s podcasts on the first Power Rangers movie, as well as Power Rangers Wild Force.

You can follow Anthony @DesiWestside on Twitter.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is streaming on Netflix and YouTube.

Senior Writer Aaron Sarnecky and Senior TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky are back. This time they’re talking about That ‘70s Show for its 25th anniversary.

That ‘70s Show is a sitcom created by Mark Brazill, Bonnie Turner, and Terry Turner. It debuted on August 23, 1998 on FOX, where it ran for eight seasons. The 200th and final episode aired on May 18, 2006.

Set in the 1970s, the series chronicles the misadventures of teenager Eric Forman (Topher Grace) and his friends. His friends are Donna (Laura Prepon), Kelso (Ashton Kutcher), Jackie (Mila Kunis), Hyde (Danny Masterson), and Fez (Wilmer Valderrama). Other major characters include Eric’s parents Red (Kurtwood Smith) and Kitty (Debra Jo Rupp).

That ‘70s Show is still immensely popular. In February, Netflix renewed the sequel series That ‘90s Show for a second season. That ‘80s Show, a series in the same vein but featuring none of the original cast, briefly aired in 2002.

Aaron and Josh go over their history with the series before looking at the pilot. They also discuss whether they’ll revisit the show.

For a podcast on an actual ‘70s show, you can listen to Josh and Aaron’s Match Game podcast with Digital Trends Editor Allison Lips.

That ‘70s Show is streaming on Peacock.

Welcome to TV Break, where Pop Break’s Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky to talk about the happenings in television.

Here’s the format of the show:

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Josh talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month including HBO’s The Last of Us, The Roku Channel’s Great American Baking Show Celebrity Holiday Special, ABC’s Abbott Elementary, and AppleTV+’s Shrinking.

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Josh discuss the impact of the recent scandals around adult animation creator and voice actor Justin Roiland on the legacies and long term viability of the series he helped create and star in, including Rick & Morty and Solar Opposites.

Streaming Wars – Alex, Bill, and Josh pick a streamer they think “won the month” based on new shows airing/upcoming shows announced etc. This month, Bill & Josh agree that Netflix kicked off 2023 on top, thanks to a strong Q4 ad tier launch, an exciting 2023 movie sizzle reel, All Quiet on the Western Front’s status as second most nominated film at the Oscars, and the news that Netflix original series dominated the Top 15 Most Streamed Shows list. Meanwhile, Alex gives it up for Apple TV+ after a month that saw them debut the Harrison Ford starring sitcom Shrinking (from the creators of Ted Lasso), make a big splash at the Sundance Film Festival (where they beat Amazon in a bidding war for film Flora And Son and debuted Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie), helped Bryan Tyree Henry earn a surprise Best Supporting Actor nomination for his work in the film Causeway, and debuted that amazing Timothee Chalamet ad.

New Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh review Poker Face, Peacock’s case of the week murder mystery written and directed by Knives Out & The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson and starring Natasha Lyonne as a former poker player who can always tell when someone is lying, Benjamin Brett as the casino fixer trying to hunt her down, and a slew of special guest stars every episode.

Welcome to TV Break, where Pop Break’s Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky to talk about the happenings in television.

Streaming Wars – Alex, Bill, and Josh pick a streamer they think “won the month” based on new shows airing/upcoming shows announced etc. This month, Alex & Josh agree that Netflix closed out the last month of 2022 on top, thanks to the record breaking view counts for properties across TV and Film, such as Wednesday, Glass Onion, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, Troll, and Bullet Train, the return of everyone’s favorite comfort food TV, such as Emily in Paris S3, and the recent news that Chris Rock will be broadcasting his latest Comedy Special Live on Netflix on March 4th.

He also discussed the news that Nicole Kidman just signed on to costar in the next Taylor Sheridan miniseries Lioness.

New Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh review Netflix’s The Witcher: Blood Origin, the first of what Netflix hopes will be many live action entries into the expanded Witcher universe.

Welcome to Good Bye to All That, ThePopBreak.com’s afterparty for our favorite shows. Whenever inspiration strikes, contributors from across The Pop Break family will be using this space to celebrate an endlessly exciting or painfully disappointing finale of some of the biggest and buzziest shows in the world of TV.

This week, Love McPherson and some of her Live Laugh & Lovey panelists are here to break down the entire Married At First Sight: San Diego finale and subsequent reunion specials.

Check out more below from Lovey about the episode and don’t forget to check back here Thursdays to see what the next season or series finale we’ll be highlighting!

It's a wrap for the contestants of Season 15! Tempers flared during decision day and at the cast reunion. Totally proving our theory that the experts have failed yet another group of hopefuls.

Kevin Fraser sits down with the couples, and we had to bear witness to Alexis and Justin arguing over the status of their relationship. It's painstakingly obvious that Stacia and Nate clearly have a lot of maturing to do. Mitch and Krysten were as cordial as one would expect. Miguel and Lindy will probably have a baby soon. Lastly, Morgan and Ben finally left the table on good terms.

This was a pretty good season because most of the couples were immersed in the experiment and were really in search of their person. But of course, there's always one in the bunch that sucks the air out of our TVs from week to week.

I'm still in favor of getting a whole new round of experts.

Light tells the Shinigami Ryuk (Brian Drummond), the Death Note’s original owner, that he will kill criminals and become the God of the New World. Facing off against Light in a battle of wits is the world’s greatest detective, L (Alessandro Juliani).

Death Note garnered praise for its thrilling narrative, though it also drew criticism due to real life imitators. The series has been adapted into live action in Japan and the U.S.

Aaron and Josh talk about their initial exposure to Death Note and break down the plot, characters, and more.

For more anime, you can listen to Josh and Aaron chat about Spirited Away and the Dragon Ball franchise.

Death Note is streaming on Netflix.

Welcome to TV Break, where Pop Break’s Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky to talk about the happenings in television.

Here’s the format of the show:

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Josh talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month including Disney Plus’s Andor; HBOMAX’s House of the Dragon; Prime Video’s The Rings of Power; FreeVee’s High School, and FX’s Atlanta.

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Josh discuss the news that Henry Cavill will be replaced by Liam Hemsworth as the lead of Netflix’s The Witcher. The trio discuss why he may have made the move, what they think of Liam Hemsworth replacing him, what this could mean for DC and his role as Superman moving forward, and whether the news that James Gunn is now in charge of the DCU will have an impact on things to come.

Streaming Wars – Alex, Bill, and Josh pick a streamer they think “won the month” based on new shows airing/upcoming shows announced etc. This month, Bill & Josh agree that Disney Plus won the month, thanks to the recent news that they will be the global home of the latest season of Doctor Who, in addition to well received originals like She-Hulk and Andor, the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special trailer dropping, and Elton John’s farewell concert special on the horizon. Meanwhile, Alex went against the grain by standing up for HBOMAX. Despite its parent company’s many bad headlines of late, he argued that the runaway success of House of the Dragon, the Success trailer, the White Lotus premiere, and all the recent DC news helped give it the edge. News of a new Chuck Lorre/Sebastian Maniscalo sitcom coming to the network certainly didn’t hurt either.

New Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh review Prime Video’s The Peripheral, the latest sci fi series set in a future dystopia from producers Lisa Joy & Jonathan Nolan (Westworld). This series, created and showrun by Scott B. Smith (novelist and screenwriter of A Simple Plan) and based on the William Gibson novel of the same name, stars Chloe Grace Moretz & Jack Reynor as a brother/sister pair of VR gamers for hire in 2032 Appalachia who get caught up in a conspiracy thriller when a game they are hired to test out turns out to be more real than either could have imagined.

This month Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are talking about Arrow for its 10th anniversary. Joining them as special guest is Alex Marcus, Podcast Editor for The Pop Break.

Developed by Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, and Andrew Kreisberg, Arrow is a superhero show based on the DC Comics character Green Arrow. The series premiered on The CW on October 10, 2012 and ran for eight seasons, finishing at 170 episodes. The series finale aired on January 28, 2020.

Arrow tells the story of Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell), a wealthy playboy rescued from an island in the North China Sea. Queen returns to Starling City with the mission of ridding it of crime and corruption. Oliver carries out his crusade as the masked vigilante Green Arrow. The original Team Arrow consists of Oliver, his bodyguard John Diggle (David Ramsey), and tech wiz Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards).

Arrow started strong, though fans and critics agree it peaked in Season 2. The show’s reception became more mixed in the following seasons. Arrow was integral to The CW’s lineup, spawning an entire universe of DC Comics shows.

Aaron, Josh, and Alex look at the show’s pilot and discuss how the series reinvented itself over the years. They also discuss its importance in the landscape of superhero television.

You can listen to Alex talk about more superheroes on the podcast Bill vs. the MCU. As for Josh and Aaron, you can listen to them chat about the Adam West Batman series.

On top of all that Thor: Love & Thunder hit the streamer and Hocus Pocus 2 became their most watched debut weekend for a streaming exclusive.

New Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh review Netflix’s Entergalactic, which unexpectedly became a feature length film instead of the announced animated TV series we were expecting.

Welcome to TV Break, where Pop Break’s Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky to talk about the happenings in television.

Here’s the format of the show:

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Josh talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month with special guest Matt Taylor including Disney Plus’s She-Hulk; Paramount Plus’s Evil; Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power & Paper Girls, AppleTV Plus’s Bad Sisters, and Hulu’s Reservation Dogs.

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Josh preview the 2022 Emmy Awards by speaking with Matt Taylor about all the exciting races to keep an eye out for this year.

New Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, Josh, and Matt watched HBO’s much hyped Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon, created by Ryan J. Condal and George RR Martin, directed by, among other people, Miguel Sapachnik, who was responsible for most of the notable battle heavy GoT episodes. The series is led by a cast of hundreds but most notably, at least for now, Matt Smith, Paddy Considine, Rhys Ifans, Steve Toussaint, and Milly Alcock, and is expected to focus on the Targaryen Civil War, which took place nearly 200 years prior to the events of Game of Thrones.

Program of the Year: Streaming Wars will be back next month, but today we are excited to bring you our third annual Program of The Year discussion. We do this every year because, while the Emmys love to spread their awards across a variety of different types of tv programs, they opt not to answer the simple question of what program was the very best of tv overall, so we’ve decided to answer the call.

This year, the largest best series categories have eight nominees, so we will each be constructing a list of eight of the best series across all ten “best series” categories before picking a winner. Below are each of our hosts’ categories, with the winner in bold.

Josh -

Abbot Elementary

Barry

Better Call Saul

Hacks

Severance

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are trying something different for their latest podcast. Instead of just talking about one show, they’re talking about a programming block. The block in question is SNICK, celebrating its 30th anniversary.

Joining the brothers as special guest is Allison Lips, Digital Trends Editor for The Pop Break.

SNICK was Nickelodeon’s Saturday primetime lineup from August 15, 1992 to January 29, 2005. It debuted at a time when network executives were unsure if kids would stay up to watch television. SNICK’s success launched the careers of stars like Kenan Thompson, Kel Mitchell, and Amanda Bynes, who became staples on the channel.

Aaron, Josh, and Allison look at four shows that aired on SNICK, Clarissa Explains It All, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, All That, and Kenan & Kel. The trio also discuss other shows that aired on SNICK and the death of the programming block as it once was.

You can listen to Josh and Aaron’s last podcast with Allison on Kim Possible. You can also read Allison’s curated article of The Pop Break Staff’s Favorite YouTube Rabbit Holes.

Clarissa Explains It All, Are You Afraid of the Dark, All That?, and Kenan & Kel are streaming on Paramount+

Aaron and Josh are here for their latest TV retrospective, this time on American Idol for its 20th anniversary.

American Idol is signing competition created by Simon Fuller, based on the British show Pop Idol. It debuted on FOX on June 11, 2002, where it ran for 15 seasons. After a hiatus, ABC revived the series, which just concluded its 20th season.

During the auditions, the show’s judges determine whether the contestants make the trip to Hollywood. Later, the television audience votes on their favorite performances, until one singer is crowned the winner. The original three judges were record producer/music manager Randy Jackson, singer/choreographer Paula Abdul, and music executive/manger Simon Cowell.

On FOX American Idol was the most watched show on television, consistently ranking number one. However, many critics condemned its commercialism and sadistic selection process.

Aaron and Josh talk about the first episode, the judges, notable contestants, and how real the “reality TV show” really is.

You can listen to Josh and Aaron’s previous podcast on Lilo & Stitch.

American Idol is streaming on Hulu.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are back for another TV retrospective. This time they’re talking about Pokémon.

Pokémon is an anime based on the video game series of the same name. The show premiered on TV Tokyo on April 1, 1997. In the United States it has bounced around syndication, Kids’ WB, and elsewhere since 1998. The anime is ongoing, airing over 1000 episodes.

The show centers on 10-year-old Pokémon trainer Ash Ketchum (Veronica Taylor) and his loyal Pikachu (Ikue Ohtani). Joining them in their adventures are their friends Misty (Rachael Lillis) and Brock (Eric Stuart). Ash and company frequently battle the villainous Team Rocket, consisting of Jessie (Rachael Lillis), James (Ted Lewis, Eric Stuart), and Meowth (Nathan Price, Maddie Blaustein).

With games, trading cards, the show, and movies, Pokémon is one of the largest media franchises in the world and it shows no sign of letting up.

Aaron and Josh talk about their initial exposure to the anime before going into its premiere, “Pokémon, I Choose You!” They then go into the elements that made the animated series work.

The first season of Pokémon is streaming on Netflix.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are back for their first podcast of 2022. For their January TV podcast, the brothers are discussing Cory in the House, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary.

Cory in the House is a sitcom created by Dennis Rinsler and Marc Warren. It premiered on Disney Channel on January 12, 2007. It ran for 34 episodes over two seasons, ending on September 12, 2008. The series is a spinoff of That’s So Raven.

The show follows a teenager named Cory Baxter (Kyle Massey), who has a penchant for absurd schemes. Cory moves to the White House after his father, Victor (Rondell Sheridan), becomes the President's chef. Cory’s best friends are Newt (Jason Dolley), son of the Chief Justice and a Senator, and Meena (Maiara Walsh), daughter of the Bahavian ambassador. Other characters include President Martinez (Joaquin D’Aquino) and his daughter, Sophie (Madison Pettis).

Since its short run, Cory in the House has become an Internet meme. Meme fans jokingly refer to it as an anime and have ironically praised its video game on Metacritic and Amazon.

Josh and Aaron look at the show’s premiere and go into its characters, comedy, and similarities to other Disney Channel series. They also discuss the Internet meme.

Cory in the House is available for purchase on AppleTV.

For more Disney, you can check podcasts on Monsters, Inc. and The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Josh talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month including Disney Plus’s Hawkeye; Netflix’s The Witcher; and Peacock’s Saved By The Bell.

However, Alex handed the month over to Netflix thanks to their release of his favorite film of the year, The Lost Daughter, along with The Witcher S2, Adam McKay’s star-studded and much tweeted over Don’t Look Up, and a smorgasbord of Christmas movies.

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Josh remember the seventy-year career of TV legend Betty White, who passed away on New Years’ Eve at age 99. Here is the clip of Joan Rivers interviewing Betty that was discussed during this segment.

Aaron and Josh are here for their latest TV retrospective. For December the brothers are celebrating the 20th anniversary of “A Johnny Bravo Christmas.” Available to stream on YouTube.

Johnny Bravo was created by Van Partible. The cartoon is about a muscle-bound narcissist named Johnny Bravo (Jeff Bennett, Young Justice). Episodes often center on Johnny’s attempts to score a date, usually leading to women pummeling Johnny in over-the-top fashion.

The series premiered on Cartoon Network in 1997, after a prolonged test run. The series ended in 2004, after 67 episodes. It briefly returned for a Bollywood-themed revival in India.

“A Johnny Bravo Christmas” first aired on December 7, 2001. The special tells the story of Johnny’s journey to the North Pole, after he forgets to deliver his and Momma’s (Gloria Marquette, And Just Like That…) letters to Santa. Joining him is the neighbor girl, Little Suzy (Mae Whitman, Avatar: The Last Airbender). Donny Osmond (The Masked Singer), who played himself in a previous episode, makes a special guest appearance.

Josh and Aaron discuss the history of Johnny Bravo before delving into the Christmas special. Topics include the characters, humor, and how the episode compares to other holiday television.

For a podcast on another Cartoon Network show, you can listen to Josh and Aaron talk about Dexter’s Laboratory.

Aaron and Josh are here for their latest TV podcast. This time they’re talking about 24, celebrating its 20th anniversary this month.

24 is an action thriller created by Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran. The series premiered on Fox November 6, 2001. The show follows Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland, Designated Survivor), an agent for the Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit. The most unique aspect of the show is its use of real time, depicting a full 24-hour period each season, with an episode covering one hour. The series forgoes storytelling techniques such as flashbacks, time jumps, and slow motion.

The original 24 series ended on May 24, 2010, after eight seasons and a TV movie. The 2014 miniseries 24: Live Another Day continues Jack Bauer’s story, while 2017’s 24: Legacy introduces a new protagonist, ex-Army Ranger Eric Carter (Corey Hawkins, Straight Outta Compton). Fox canceled Legacy after one season.

Just a small list of supporting heroes include Jack’s daughter Kim (Elisha Cuthbert, Happy Endings), President David Palmer (Dennis Haysbert, Heat), CTU agents Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard, The Orville) and Michelle Dessler (Reiko Aylesworth, Lost), and intel analyst Chloe O’Brian (Mary Lynn Rajskub, Punch-Drunk Love). Jack faces many villains, including CTU traitor Nina Myers (Sarah Clarke, Bosch), terrorist mastermind Habib Marwan (Arnold Vosloo, The Mummy), and President Charles Logan (Gregory Itzin, Lincoln).

24 garnered acclaim from critics and viewers for much of its run, winning many awards. Kiefer Sutherland won the Primetime Emmy for Lead Actor in a Drama Series in 2006, the same year the show won Outstanding Drama Series. Despite the praise, 24 remains controversial for its dismissal of civil liberties, portrayal of Muslims, and depictions of violence and torture.

Aaron and Josh look at the show’s pilot, which won the Primetime Emmy for Writing for a Drama Series in 2002. The brothers also discuss the various aspects of the 24 franchise, including its characters, use of real time, and controversies.

For a podcast on another series known for killing characters, you can listen to Josh and Aaron talk about Game of Thrones.

24, 24: Live Another Day, and 24: Legacyare streaming on Hulu.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here for the September installment of their TV retrospectives. This time they’re discussing two shows, Dragon Ball, celebrating the 35th anniversary of its Japanese premiere and the 20th of its first time on Toonami, and Dragon Ball Z, which is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its U.S. premiere.

Dragon Ball premiered in Japan in 1986 and was later succeeded by Dragon Ball Z in 1989. Both anime are based on the manga Dragon Ball by Akira Toriyama. The more action-focused Dragon Ball Z found success in the United States first, debuting in syndication on September 13, 1996, before eventually moving to Cartoon Network’s Toonami block. Its series finale aired on April 7, 2003. Dragon Ball premiered on Toonami on August 20, 2001, with its finale airing on December 1, 2003.

Dragon Ball follows the martial artist Goku from boyhood till manhood, after which Dragon Ball Z picks up with grownup Goku and introduces his son Gohan. It’s during his adulthood that Goku learns that he’s an alien from another planet, taking the previously fantasy story into science fiction. Both shows feature an array of memorable characters, including Goku’s friends Bulma and Krillin, his rivals Piccolo and Vegeta, and the evil Frieza. A key element of both series is the Dragon Balls, which summon a wish-granting dragon when all seven are gathered.

Goku has had many voices. His most famous in English is Sean Schemmel (Pokémon). As a boy he voiced by Stephanie Nadolny (OK K.O.! Let’s Be Heroes), who also voices Gohan as a child. Christopher Sabat (My Hero Academia) plays both Vegeta and Piccolo. The Pop Break interviewed Schemmel and Sabat for the premiere of the movie Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’.

Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z were vital in cementing anime’s popularity in the United States and around the world. They have spawned video games, animated and live action movies, the follow-up series Dragon Ball GT and Dragon Ball Super, and Dragon Ball Z Kai, a re-edit of DBZ closer to the manga. With Dragon Ball Super expecting another movie next year, the franchise is alive and well.

Aaron and Josh talk about both series’ premieres, as well as the shows’ plots, characters, action, and humor. The brothers also discuss the Dragon Ball franchise’s place in their childhood and its enduring legacy.

For a podcast on another martial arts show, you can listen to Josh and Aaron talk about the finale of Jackie Chan Adventures.

Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Zare streaming on Funimation.

Ford III is joined by Brandon Katz from Observer.com to discuss HBO's surprise hit "The White Lotus," the comedy-drama television series created, written, and directed by Mike White that had its season finale on August 15, 2021.

How scathing a critique of privilege the show offers
How the series’ various protagonists changed or didn't over the course of the season
The tragedy of Belinda, the show's only true hero
The psychosexual struggle between Olivia and Paula, and the fallout of their conflict
The ways in which the "bad" choices each character made reflected the realistic over the noble
The awfulness of the Mossbacher clan, and whether Quinn ultimately escapes their orbit

-The role that Hawaii plays in the series, and whether the cultural aspects being touched upon are ultimately handled with respect and sensitivity

Rachel's ultimate choice, and where we see her character in 5-10 years
What we'd like to see in the already green-lit second season of "The White Lotus"

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here for their August TV podcast. This month the brothers are celebrating the 30th anniversary of Rugrats, the most significant show of their early childhood.

Rugrats was created by Arlene Klasky, Gabor Csupo, and Paul Germain. After a successful unaired pilot, the cartoon premiered on Nickelodeon on August 11, 1991. It ran until 1994, when it went on hiatus. After two Jewish holiday specials, Rugrats returned on a regular basis in 1997. The series continued until August 1, 2004, with three theatrical films during this run. The show lived on until 2008, with two direct-to-DVD specials, four shorts entitled Preschool Daze, and the All Grown Up spinoff series focusing on the characters 10 years later.

Rugrats follows the adventures of a group of toddlers with vivid imaginations. Tommy (E.G. Daily, The Powerpuff Girls) is the leader of the group while the timid and anxious Chuckie (Christine Cavanaugh, Dexter’s Laboratory) is his best friend. Accompanying the duo in most adventures are twins Phil and Lil (both voiced by Kath Soucie, Space Jam), and occasionally Tommy’s older cousin Angelica (Cheryl Chase, The Ren & Stimpy Show), who often bullies the foursome. Other characters include Tommy’s neighbor Susie (Cree Summer, Inspector Gadget), his baby brother Dil (Tara Strong, Loki), and Chuckie’s stepsister Kimi (Dionne Quan, The Fairly Oddparents). The show also includes a host of adult characters, who serve as the comedy for parents watching Rugrats with their children.

Rugrats was massively popular during its time. It won four Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Children’s Animated Program and at 172 episodes was the longest running Nicktoon until 2012. The show has been represented in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Aaron and Josh talk about the impact Rugrats had on their childhood, the premiere, the characters, and the show’s humor. The brothers also discuss the 2021 computer-animated reboot on Paramount+.

For a podcast on another Nicktoon, you can listen to Josh and Aaron talk about Hey Arnold!

Rugrats is streaming on Paramount+.

Meanwhile, Justin stood up for historic underdog Disney Plus for their many Emmy successes, their Black Widow release, andtheir giant Loki finale. Finally, Alex repped for Netflix on the back of their season two releases for I Think You Should Leave, Never Have I Ever, & Outer Banks, the return of Twilight to the service, the premiere of Masters of the Universe: Revelation & Sexy Beast, the surprising success of the Fear Street Trilogy, and (effectively) leading the Emmy nominations for all networks.

Check back soon for our continued coverage, and don't forget to follow Lovey on Twitter @iamloveytoo and check out the show on YouTube.

The Chi S4E10 (Aired August 1, 2021)

Out of guilt of knowing what happened to Marcus, Jake confessed to what he saw to Jemma when she rushed home to check the cameras which were all over the house. Jake came to the defense of his brother telling her Trig saved her father’s life.

Christian asked if Keisha was his girlfriend.

Jada got a call from her doctor about her recent test results. Good news… she may not have to do another round of chemo! So Emmett threw a neighborhood party in celebration.

Even though Tiffany chose Emmett, she was flirting with Rob (Iman Shumpert) at Jada’s party. But little did we know she’d leave her bed with Emmett to meet up with Rob!

Lastly, it looks like the city will lose the mayor as we see Douda leaving town since the brutal damage he did to Marcus is on tape. Trig demanded he disappear ASAP or else he’ll release the footage to the media. Does this mean Roselyn would take his place in the office?

The season ended with lots of questions that needed a lot of answers. So we’re asking ourselves … is The Chi coming back with season 5?

This week on Good Bye To All That, Michael T. Ford III is joined by Corey Pruitt aka TASK, Comic Twitter personality and co-host of the SuperSuit Show podcast, to discuss the MCU's latest series on Disney Plus, LOKI, starring Tom Hiddleston reprising his role as the titular character, picking up from his escape with the Tesseract during the events of AVENGERS: ENDGAME.

Show Topics discussed include:

How LOKI differed from the two event series that preceded it, and how knowing it was getting a second season affected the way the narrative was constructed.
The way the show benefited from tempered expectations to both raise the stakes for the rest of the MCU meta narrative and unleash a new Big Bad.
What the unleashed MCU Multiverse could mean for the rest of Phase 4 and beyond.
The role of Jonathan Majors' He Who Remains in the season 1 climax, and what we'd like to see from other Kang variants.
Whether the TVA worked overall, and what we think TVA 2.0 will get up to in S2.
Judge Renslayer, her overall effectiveness as both a character and an antagonist, and what we'd like to see from her in S2.
Richard E. Grant's performance as Classic Loki, and how his single episode arc in the penultimate episode was Emmy-worthy.
Sylvie's arc, and how it resonated for viewers who themselves experienced childhood trauma.

Aaron and Josh are back for their July TV podcast. This month the brothers are commemorating Hey Arnold! for its 25th anniversary.

Hey Arnold! is a traditionally animated cartoon based on claymation shorts and comics by series creator Craig Bartlett. Nickelodeon attached the pilot to its first feature film, Harriet the Spy, which opened in theaters on July 10, 1996. Hey Arnold! officially became a Nicktoon when the series premiered on television on October 7, 1996. 100 episodes aired before the series ended on June 8, 2004. During this run Arnold returned to the big screen for his own movie in 2002. Hey Arnold! saw a brief revival in 2017 with a TV movie wrapping up the storyline set up in the show’s two-part finale, originally meant to culminate in a second theatrical film.

Arnold is a fourth grader going to school at P.S. 118. He lives in grandparents’ boarding house in the city of Hillwood. Many episodes focus on Arnold helping someone with a problem, often one of his classmates or one of the tenants of the boarding house. Notable characters include Arnold’s best friend Gerald and a girl named Helga. Helga bullies Arnold to conceal a huge crush on him.

Many actors portray Arnold, with J.D. Daniels from The Mighty Ducks voicing Arnold in the pilot and Toran Caudell of Recess playing him in Season 1. Jamil Walker Smith of Stargate Universe voices Gerald in the series’ original run while Francesca Marie Smith, another voice from Recess plays Helga. Perhaps the most notable voice actors are those playing Grandma Gertie and Grandpa Phil. Tress MacNeille is best known as the voice of Dot on Animaniacs while Dan Castellaneta is the voice of Homer Simpson on The Simpsons.

Josh and Aaron talk about the pilot and the show’s TV premiere. The brothers also discuss memorable episodes and another possible continuation or reboot on Paramount+.

For another beloved cartoon from yesteryear, you can listen to Aaron and Josh’s podcast on Dexter’s Laboratory.

Hey Arnold! is streaming on Paramount+.

-How Sweet Tooth differed from the MCU Disney Plus series in terms of tone, theme, and willingness to take narrative risks while still presenting an all-ages product

The importance of Gus and the impact of being introduced to the world through Gus' eyes
The development of the central relationship between Gus and Tommy "Big Man" Jeppard over the course of the season
How the season plays with time and timelines to emphasize the changes to the world and its people
The role of the Animal Army, the Bear/Tiger schism, and the Lost Boys/Winnie the Pooh parallels
Suburban paranoia as depicted by the Singhs and "post-apocalyptic Karen" Nancy
Aimee Eden, the Preserve, the power of found family, and her overall awesomeness
Whether General Abbot was too cartoonishly evil as the series' Big Bad, or just the right amount of cartoonishly evil
What’s next for our reshuffled pairings in Season 2, and what we'd like to see from them. (Neither of us have read the comic, so don't spoil us!)

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here for the June installment of their TV podcast. This time the brothers are talking about the Smallville series finale, which recently celebrated its 10th anniversary. Coincidently, the series premiere will celebrate its 20th anniversary later this year.

Smallville is a retelling of Superman’s origin, focusing on Clark Kent’s high school years and early adulthood, largely set in the hero’s hometown of Smallville, Kansas. The series premiered October 16, 2001 on The WB. During the show’s 217-episode run, The WB merged with UPN to create The CW, where Smallville continued until its tenth season. The two-part series finale aired on May 13, 2011.

In the series Clark (Tom Welling, Lucifer) faces many challenges, such as fighting supervillains and balancing his Kryptonian heritage with his desire for a normal life. One of his adversaries is Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum, Justice League Unlimited), with whom he forges a friendship before a falling out. Clark’s allies include his adoptive parents, Jonathan (John Schneider, The Dukes of Hazzard) and Martha (Annette O’Toole, Superman III), his high school friend Chloe Sullivan (Allison Mack, Wilfred), and Oliver Queen AKA Green Arrow (Justin Hartley, This Is Us). Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk, Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li) and Lois Lane (Erica Durance, Saving Hope) serve as Clark’s love interests, as they do in the comics.

Aaron and Josh go into when they first saw Smallville and their feelings on the show as a whole before breaking down each element of the series finale. The brothers also discuss the series’ legacy and its crossover with The CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths.

For Josh and Aaron’s opinions on another take on Superman, you can listen to their podcast on Superman II.

Smallville is streaming on Hulu.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here for the May edition of their TV retrospectives, joined by a special guest, Editor-in-Chief Bill Bodkin. This month they’re talking about Dinosaurs, which recently celebrated its 30th anniversary.

Dinosaurs first premiered April 26, 1991 on ABC, where it ran for four seasons. While the true series finale aired in July, the show finished out of order and ended its 65-episode run in syndication on October 19, 1994. Created by Michael Jacobs and Bob Young, Dinosaurs is a family sitcom featuring actors dressed up as anthropomorphic dinosaurs. The TV show utilizes animatronics and puppetry by The Jim Henson Company.

Dinosaurs follows the life of Earl (Stuart Pankin, Curb Your Enthusiasm) and Fran Sinclair (Jessica Walter, Arrested Development), a suburban couple raising a family in 60,000,003 BC on the continent of Pangaea. Earl and Fran have three children, Robbie (Jason Willinger, A Goofy Movie), Charlene (Sally Struthers, All in the Family), and Baby Sinclair (Kevin Clash, Sesame Street). Fran’s mother, Ethyl (Florence Stanley, My Two Dads), lives with them as well.

Despite its absurd premise, Dinosaurs occasionally tackles important social issues, such as women’s rights, environmentalism, and racism. In addition to an Emmy nomination for Editing for a Single Camera Production and a win for Best Art Direction, the series received a Television Critics Association Award nomination for Outstanding Achievement in Children’s Programming and won three Environmental Media Awards for TV Comedy.

Josh, Aaron, and Bill look back at their time watching Dinosaurs before diving into the series premiere and the show as a whole. Topics include how the show compares to other sitcoms of the era, the work by The Jim Henson Company, and the show’s take on topical issues.

You can listen to Josh and Aaron’s podcast on another Jim Henson property, Muppet Treasure Island.

Dinosaurs is streaming on Disney+.

Lords Aaron and Joshua of House Sarnecky are here for the April entry of their 2021 TV anniversary celebrations, Game of Thrones.

Game of Thrones ran on HBO from April 17, 2011 to May 19, 2019, for a total of eight seasons and 73 episodes. Created by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, it is an adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s fantasy novel series A Song of Ice and Fire. In the series a multitude of characters vie for control on the continent of Westeros. Most factions in Game of Thrones are commanded by noble houses, chief among them the Starks of the North, the Lannisters of the South, and the exiled Targaryens who used to rule the Seven Kingdoms. Meanwhile, in the uppermost region of Westeros, humanoid Ice creatures called White Walkers build their army, enslaving the dead to their will.

During its run Game of Thrones became the most popular show in the world and garnered 160 Emmy nominations and 59 wins, including four Outstanding Supporting Actor wins for Peter Dinklage (X-Men: Days of Future Past) for his portrayal of Tyrion Lannister and Outstanding Drama Series wins for Seasons 5 through 8. The latter fact comes in spite of the extremely divisive final season.

In the series premiere, “Winter Is Coming,” King Robert Baratheon (Mark Addy, The Full Monty) asks his friend Lord Eddard “Ned” Stark (Sean Bean, Snowpiercer) to become Hand of the King, the second most powerful person in Westeros. Complicating matters for an already reluctant Ned is a conspiracy involving the murder of the previous Hand. Over on the continent of Essos, Princess Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke, Last Christmas), daughter of Westeros’ overthrown “Mad King,” marries warlord Khal Drogo (Jason Mamoa, Zack Snyder’s Justice League) in hopes that his warriors will help her family reclaim the Iron Throne.

In the podcast Josh and Aaron talk about “Winter Is Coming” before going into their feelings on the series as a whole. The brothers go into their favorite parts of the show, its low points and controversies, and whether or not they’re interested in the Game of Thrones spinoffs in the works.

Pop Break’s Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky to talk about the happenings in television.

Here’s the format of the show:

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Josh talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month including Disney+'s The Falcon & The Winter Soldier; AMC’s Gangs of London; HBOMAX’s Search Party; and Netflix’s Waffles & Mochi and The Great British Baking Show.

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Josh discuss AT&T’s foolhardy attempt to ring every last penny out of the Game of Thrones IP, after it was recently announced that SIX new GOT series are in active development for HBOMAX.

Streaming Wars – Alex, Bill, and Josh pick a streamer they think “won the month” based on new shows airing/upcoming shows announced etc. Bill & Alex decided Disney+ won the month thanks to their trio of buzzy Marvel shows, their successful launch of Might Ducks: Game Changers and Raya and the Last Dragon, and the news Pixar’s Luca and Marvel’s Black Widow are both slated to debut on the service this summer. Meanwhile, Josh stood up for HBOMAX on the strength of their many buzzy trailers and the surprisingly well received Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh watched HBOMAX’s Made for Love

Aaron and Josh are back with a new TV podcast, this time on a classic cartoon, Dexter’s Laboratory, celebrating the 25th anniversary of its premiere on Cartoon Network.

Dexter’s Laboratory first aired on TNT on February 26, 1995 as a seven-minute pilot based on creator Genndy Tartakoksky’s student films at CalArts. After three more test run episodes, Dexter’s Laboratory aired as a full series on April 27, 1996 on TNT and then Cartoon Network and TBS the next day. Dexter’s Laboratory would become the flagship for Cartoon Network’s original programming and a network staple, airing 78 episodes and a TV movie over four seasons from 1996 to 2003.

In the series boy genius Dexter, voiced by Christine Cavanaugh (Babe) and later Candi Milo (Chowder), attempts to keep his hyperactive sister Dee Dee, voiced by Allison Moore (The Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat)and Kat Cressida (Doom Patrol), from ruining his inventions. Dexter also contends with rival boy genius, Mandark, voiced by Eddie Deezen (The Polar Express), who happens to be in love with Dee Dee. Kath Soucie (Space Jam) and Jeff Bennett, (Johnny Bravo) voice Dexter’s mom and dad, who are unaware of Dexter’s secret lab.

Dexter’s Lab was nominated four times in a row for Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming One Hour or Less) at the Primetime Emmy Awards from 1995 to 1998. The show also won three Annie Awards, including one for Christine Cavanaugh in 2000 for her voice acting in the TV movie Dexter’s Laboratory: Ego Trip. Overall, the show is considered one of the best cartoons Cartoon Network has ever produced and is remembered fondly by millions.

In this podcast Aaron and Josh take a look at the first episode that premiered on Cartoon Network when Dexter’s Lab became a full series. They also discuss other memorable episodes, the dynamic between Dexter and Dee Dee, and the show’s legacy.

Dexter’s Laboratory is streaming on HBO Max.

Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh watched The CW’s Superman & Lois and were all pleasantly surprised by this pivot away from the normal superhero TV formula in favor of a more grounded and lived in domestic drama with a dash of superheroics.

Pop Break’s Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky to talk about the happenings in television.

Here’s the format of the show:

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Josh talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month including Disney+'s Marvel Legends; BBC America's The Watch & Doctor Who; and Season 1 of Star Wars: The Clone Wars

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Josh discuss the surprising news that Roku has purchased the rights to 75 Quibi originals to air on their ad-supported streaming platform, The Roku Channel, later this year, check out Roku's statement for more.

Streaming Wars – Alex, Bill, and Josh pick a streamer they think “won the month” based on new shows airing/upcoming shows announced etc. Bill & Josh decide Netflix won the month with their splashy debut of the Shonda Rhimes period soap Bridgerton and their big announcement of all the movies that are headed to their service this year. Meanwhile, Alex went a different direction, handing the prize to HBO Max for the way they owned the holiday season with the most talked about film (Wonder Woman 1984) and TV series (The Flight Attendant).

Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Josh watched Mr. Mayor, the latest from 30 Rock's Tina Fey & Robert Carlock so you don't have to. They found the cast to be tremendously talented, though better served in past projects (check out Vella Lovell in this excellent musical number from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend to see what we mean), the writing to be pretty stale, and the premise to be tone deaf at best.

Episode Description

We talk about the talent show group date where the men had to perform a song that they wrote for Tayshia.

Ivan won the date, so he had the opportunity to have a one-on-one date with her. They played games and had fun but then had some very serious conversation about racial injustice and the Black Lives Matter movement.

The next date was a truth or dare date where the men had to complete dares that ended up being cringy and also hysterical. During the cocktail portion of the date, Tayshia uses her time to learn about the men’s truths.

Ben and Ed both wanted some alone time with Tayshia after the date was over.

The cocktail party was cut short when Noah lied to Tayshia about some of the things the other men said.

The episode ended with the rose ceremony which means we’re back on scheduled track.

Josh and Aaron Sarnecky are here to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Young Justice, the animated series featuring the superhero team of the same name.

Young Justice originally aired from November 26, 2010 to March 16, 2013 on Cartoon Network. DC Universe picked up the show for a third season, which premiered on January 4, 2019.

Young Justice follows a group of teenage sidekicks as they seek to prove themselves to their mentors. In “Independence Day” and “Fireworks,” which serve as the series’ two-part premiere, Robin, Aqualad, and Kid Flash face off against Cadmus Labs’ clone of Superman, Superboy. The series stars Jesse McCartney as Robin/Nightwing, Nolan North as Superboy, Khary Payton as Aqualad, Jason Spisak as Kid Flash, Danica McKellar as Miss Martian, and Stephanie Lemelin as Artemis. Crispin Freeman also contributes his voice as Speedy.

In addition to garnering critical acclaim and winning an Emmy for character design, Young Justice has fostered a cult following. It was this dedicated fanbase that led to the series’ return after cancellation.

In this podcast, Aaron and Josh talk about the series premiere, as well as the rest of the show. The brothers also discuss the differences between Young Justice and Cartoon Network’s Teen Titans series.

For more cartoons, listen to Josh and Aaron’s podcast on Jackie Chan Adventures.

Young Justice is currently streaming on HBO Max, where the fourth season will premiere in 2021.

Pop Break’s Television Editor Alex Marcus is joined by editor-in-chief Bill Bodkin, and special guest Justin Mancini of Cinema Joes to talk about the happenings in television.

Here’s the format of the show:

The Best Thing I Saw on TV Last Month – Alex, Bill, and Justin talk about a show/episode/event they liked from the last month including HBO's We Are Who We Are & The Leftovers; Pop’s Schitt’s Creek; DisneyPlus’s Animal Kingdom; & Netflix’s The Haunting of Bly Manor.

News Break – Alex, Bill, and Justin discuss the sad news that seven previously renewed series, including Netflix’s GLOW, have been cancelled due in part to COVID-19. For more, check out this round up from EW.

Streaming Wars – Alex, Bill, and Justin pick a streamer they think “won the month” based on new shows airing/upcoming shows announced etc. and whether it was Disney Plus, Netflix, Amazon, or another streaming platform that came out on top. Justin used Netflix’s upcoming movie slate to argue they had the best month, while Bill focused on Amazon’s slew of original series and high profile films, from Blumhouse horror productions to Coming 2 America, to make his claim. However, the guys both came around to Alex’s pick of Disney+ after the streamers big announcement regarding the future of Disney theatrical releases.

New Series Spotlight – Alex, Bill, and Justin travel back to the sixties for a dull and unremarkable look at the space race with DisneyPlus’s The Right Stuff.

MAFS New Orleans Season 11 Ep.13 (Aired October 7, 2020)

They say you never know a person until you’re stuck quarantining together. The coronavirus has officially affected production for the series, and if COVID-19 had not been a factor, the couples would have been in process of making their final decisions to stay married or to get a divorce. However, with no one moving about the country, everyone has been locked in the respective homes for over 40-days, and it’s not looking good for a few of our season’s favorites. Brett and Olivia have gracefully bowed out of the experiment. Dr. Pepper told Karen she needs to get her act together if she wants to stay married to Miles. And Henry is totally aware of Christina’s mountain of lies.

Other notable voices include Mark Hamill (yes, that Mark Hamill) as the Joker, Arleen Sorkin as Harley Quinn (who was created for the show), Adrienne Barbeau as Selena Kyle/Catwoman, and Melissa Gilbert as Barbara Gordon/Batgirl.

In this podcast, Josh and Aaron discuss their past with Batman: The Animated Series, the finale itself (which features Star Trek: Voyager and Orange is the New Black's Kate Mulgrew as the villain Red Claw), and the series’ rebranding as The Adventures of Batman & Robin late in its run. They also discuss the show’s status as one of the greatest cartoons of all time and its relationship to The New Batman Adventures and other DC animated shows.

The ladies may have missed the premiere due to the holiday weekend, but check back here every Monday for continued weekly coverage of the Starz original series. Check down below for an episode description and be sure to follow Lovey on Twitter @iamloveytoo and check out the show on YouTube.

Power Book II: Ghost (S1E2)

The hour starts off on a not-great note for Tasha (Natori Naughton) when she meets with her new lawyer, Davis MacLean (Method Man), and his investigator, Paula (Sherri Saum). Tasha inadvertently refers to her deceased husband as “Ghost,” and the slip immediately piques Paula’s interest, noting that “the Feds could never prove that.” This only serves to incense Davis, who has realized that he has no idea who his new client really is. Meanwhile, Tariq’s (Michael Rainey, Jr.) first day of canonical studies also goes sideways. He didn’t finish the book they’re studying (again), and both the professor and his classmates call him out for it

Every month Pop Break TV Columnist Josh Sarnecky and his brother, Staff Writer Aaron Sarnecky, get together to celebrate a special moment in TV history! This month, the brothers are back to reminisce over the series finale of one of the most surprising network TV dramas to ever air on NBC, Hannibal, which went off the air five years ago this past August. The series, which was created by Bryan Fuller and aired for three seasons from 2013-2015, starred Mads Mikkelsen as the titular character, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, and Hugh Dancy as Will Graham, an FBI profiler with a talent for thinking like the most depraved minds.

On this podcast Aaron and Josh discuss their past with the series, their overall feelings on the finale, and the relationship between Hannibal Lecter and Will Graham. The two also discuss how Fuller’s interpretation of the Red Dragon story differs from previous adaptations and whether they’d like to see the show come back in some form.

Together, we discuss the series' unorthodox production history (including when Robert Downey Jr. was set to star), the show's incredibly talented cast, and the unsatisfying conclusion.

We also grapple with the where and when the creative team chose to be bold and transgressive and when they pulled their punches.

Finally, we look back upon our personal history with the beloved character and consider how well this dark and gritty origin story fits into the Perry Mason TV lineage.

The Anniversary Brothers Podcast: Jackie Chan Adventures Series Finale 15th Anniversary

Senior Writer Aaron Sarnecky and Senior Columnist Josh Sarnecky recently sat down to discuss Jackie Chan Adventures for the 15th anniversary of its series finale.

Jackie Chan Adventures ran for five seasons on Kids WB, from September 9, 2000 to July 8, 2005. The cartoon stars James Sie as Jackie Chan, an archeologist whose personality and fighting style is based on the famed martial artist. Throughout the show Jackie helps Captain Black (Clancy Brown) and Section 13 keep dangerous magical artifacts out of the wrong hands. Aiding Jackie is his niece Jade (Stacie Chan), his uncle (Sab Shimono), and Uncle’s apprentice, Tohru (Noah Nelson). In the series finale, Jackie and his friends must prevent the demon Drago (Michael Rosenbaum) from taking over the world.

Aaron and Josh talk about the show’s relation to the real Jackie Chan, if the series finale wraps up everything in a satisfying way, and how Saturday morning cartoons have largely disappeared.

For Josh and Aaron’s previous TV podcast, you can listen to them talk about the Lost series finale.

Jackie Chan Adventures is available on Amazon Prime Video.

Welcome to the third episode of Good Bye to All That – Pop Break’s television podcast series that focuses on season (and sometimes series) finales of shows you absolutely need to be watching.

Pop Break’s Television Editor Alex Marcus is joined by Pop Break Television Columnist Alan Sarapa (writer of Alan’s Soap Box). Together this dynamic duo (sorry, had to) do a deep dive into the highs and lows of the debut season of the CW’s Batwoman.

Batwoman, which premiered on October 6, 2019, was developed by acclaimed television writer and producer Caroline Dries (Melrose Place, Smallville). The first season, which episode run was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, “follows Kate Kane overcoming her demons and past to become Gotham City’s new symbol of hope as the vigilante Batwoman.”

The series starred Rose as Kane/Batwoman, Rachel Skarsten, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang, Camrus Johnson, Elizabeth Anweis, Dougray Scott, and the voice of MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

They break down:

How the show evolved over its first season
Whether or not it was helped by the Crisis on Infinite Earths miniseries event
Ruby Rose’s growing pains as the show’s lead
The Jacob Kane problem
The Kate/Sophie/Julia love triangle
Rachel Skarsten’s breakout turn as Alice
The introduction of Bruce Wayne
Our thoughts on Ruby quitting the show

Believe it or not, it’s been 10 years since LOST ended. To celebrate, brothers Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are going back to the Island and reexamining the series finale.

LOST ran for six seasons on ABC, from September 22, 2004 to May 23, 2010. The series centered on the survivors of a plane crash stranded on a mysterious island. It featured an ensemble cast that included Matthew Fox, Terry O’Quinn, Evangeline Lilly, Josh Holloway, Jorge Garcia, Michael Emerson, Henry Ian Cusick, and many, many more. LOST took the world by storm during its first season, winning the Emmy for Best Drama, unheard of for a sci-fi show at the time. But while the show as a whole was beloved, the response to the series finale was much more mixed.

“The End” is still one of the most divisive series finales of all time. Aaron and Josh go over their history with the series, what their reactions to “The End” initially were, and how rewatching it has informed their opinions of it. The two also discuss the lesser known epilogue found on DVD and Blu-ray, as well as the legacy of the show as a whole.
