As you can tell, things are changing around here. We’re going to be keeping the same name, because we’re all partial to it, but we won’t be exclusive to Netflix anymore. Instead, we’re going to cover original streaming television shows which premiere in single blocks...in other words if you can binge it and it’s original to online services, we’ll talk about it.
But first...we watch a lot of TV and movies.
Chris is being introduced to the wide world of Anime.
Javier watched a documentary on Netflix about reined cow horse competition called Down the Fence.

Jean-Claude Van Johnson stars global martial arts & actor Jean-Claude Van Damme playing "Jean-Claude Van Damme", a global martial arts & film sensation, also operating under the simple alias of "Johnson" as the world's best undercover private contractor. Retired for years, a chance encounter with a lost love brings him back to the game. This time, he'll be deadlier than ever. Probably.

This week we have a special Christmas edition, but we’re not covering Christmas episodes. Instead, I asked our hosts to pick a show to cover. And lo, here is the result.
This week we’re exploring hybrid toy shows from the 80s with Kenner’s M.A.S.K., commiserating about how much high school sucks with Freaks and Geeks, and returning to a childhood favorite with Saved by the Bell.
Review of “M.A.S.K.” Review of “Freaks and Geeks” Review of “Saved by the Bell”Next episode:
We let you decide what we cover next! Next week’s theme is One Season Wonders! These are shows that only aired for a single season but are still widely beloved, like Freaks and Geeks.
The choices are: The Adventures of Briscoe County Jr, Battlestar Galactica 1977, and Eerie, Indiana
