MuuMuuChainsmoker September 9, 2015 Share September 9, 2015 Are the IMDB descriptions supposed to be search terms, because I typed some of them into IMDB while the game was going on and got no returns. Which makes me wonder, what is the point? Candy doesn't have to have a point. That's why it's candy. :) Link to comment

David T. Cole September 9, 2015 Author Share September 9, 2015 Cekypton1: These were plot keywords from IMDB. Words/phrases IMDB thinks are indicative of the show. Tags basically but I believe user-generated-ish. Link to comment
ubertuber September 9, 2015 Share September 9, 2015 The "brown people" clue for UnReal was a direct quote from the show. It's what Adam's grandmother said to him when she met the Latina finalist (Grace?). 2 Link to comment
ApathyMonger September 9, 2015 Share September 9, 2015 Bluestone 42's a British show, about a bomb disposal squad in Afghanistan. The first two seasons are on Hulu; I enjoyed it: http://www.hulu.com/bluestone-42 1 Link to comment
gpgurl50 September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 Great game time! Some of those are hard. I admire you volunteer game time people. I work from home quite often and watch a lot of TV but I'm convinced if I was ever in an actual game time I would miss a super obvious question and flee the internet. 2 Link to comment
Jesse September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 I saw Stephen King speak last night, and at some point he made reference to Under the Dome, saying "not the TV show of the same name...." and of course I immediately thought of Tara. And also Sarah saying "...Domer." FYI! Link to comment

yeswedo September 11, 2015 Share September 11, 2015 I had so much fun playing and not just because I won. Although that is going on my LinkedIn profile as a skill. Thanks Carlos for braving the IMDB message boards to create the game! Great game time! Some of those are hard. I admire you volunteer game time people. I work from home quite often and watch a lot of TV but I'm convinced if I was ever in an actual game time I would miss a super obvious question and flee the internet. Same. Except for the working from home part. I had the same worry. My advice is be very prompt in replying to the invite email because I would not have done as well in any other position. And keep listening to EHG. At least half the shows I've never seen but guessed the answer from hearing about them on previous podcasts. 3 Link to comment

AndreaK1041 September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 Thank you for warning me off Minority Report. Will there be a Fall TV episode similar to the one you did in the summer? I really enjoyed that and watched full seasons of 3 shows I would not have otherwise seen based on recommendations. 1 Link to comment
Joseph Finn September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 So we're all ready for the TV movie of The Dome in 2017? Please? I feel like I'm going to miss Tara's recaps and rants about far more than the show ever deserved. Thank you, Tara, for taking the bullet on this. 2 Link to comment
smokeyred September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 I love Tara's Under The Dome Recaps. I find her frustration with the show pretty amusing. I read the book and it was okay....not one of Stephen King's best. I was excited to see this TV show and I gave up after about 3 or 4 episodes. It really didn't have anything to do with the book except there was a dome and a dude named Big Jim. 1 Link to comment
Dave in Chicago September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 An entire game about TV drugs, and no mention of Glint, street name "The Devil's Harelip"? I know the games are user submitted, but: am I remembering correctly that this podcast is generally anti-"Strangers with Candy" or did I make that up? Link to comment
Tara Ariano September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 am I remembering correctly that this podcast is generally anti-"Strangers with Candy" or did I make that up? You are! Dave and I haven't watched it in years, but we're not against it. Link to comment
Fukui San September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 So what sadists among us want Tara's Under the Dome recaps to continue, with her having to repeat the series from start to finish again and again until she loses her ever lovin' mind in increasingly entertaining ways? Just me? 2 Link to comment
Will Holston September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 Every time Deception gets a mention on the show, it makes me happy as it is the only reward I receive for somehow watching that whole season. 1 Link to comment

I'd say it's overdue for canon consideration, but I'm too computer dumb and voice shy to follow through on that. Probably. Link to comment
Delwyn September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 I have read every recap for Under The Dome this season, even though I would never, in a million years, watch the actual show. Tara's recaps are like the WTF of listening to a little kid tell an outlandish story that they are making up as they go along. You just kind of roll with the water-skiing unicorns and talking camels because sure, why not? They must have moved Minority Report from Toronto after the pilot, because you can't go anywhere in Vancouver right now without stumbling across one of their sets. They've even filmed on weekends I think. 1 Link to comment

For me, it's like that one guy at the party who is super coked up and he has all these *intense* feelings! and ideas! and he keeps talking faster and faster and more intensely. And whenever anyone tries to ask any questions about the word salad he's throwing out, he just waves them off because "HE'S JUST GOTTA GET ALL THIS OUT THERE AND TELL THE PEOPLE!" Only this is awesome, while coke guy is just a windbag dick. 2 Link to comment

Lisin September 16, 2015 Share September 16, 2015 I'm still not seeing it in iTunes but it may take time? I don't know how fast iTunes updates. Hearing Sarah mispronounce my name is one of my life's greatest achievements, simply because I once resisted spelling it like that for this exact reason but bowed to peer pressure and gone with it (my name's Elisabeth with an S and I used to spell Liz with a z... anyway on topic!) I swear my husband and I have a "thing" for almost every show we watch, likely because we tend to do more binge watching than normal TV watching and by the third or fourth episode of anything we're a bit loopy and start a running gag. I used to have a specific choreographed dance for the theme to Vegas (god we watch some crap TV) and the NCIS dance is our mocking of a rave type dance, like with pretend glow sticks in our hands? Because the theme is super aggressively bad techno? I also purse my lips any time Sarah lover of "duck face" is on screen on Arrow. I also narrate Dexter's opening credits and criticize the way he cooks his breakfast every time. It's not annoying at all I'm sure! Link to comment

Carrie Ann September 17, 2015 Share September 17, 2015 I have something of a sparkling/mineral water addiction, and when it comes to LaCroix (which we also call LaCroy--there's a river in MN spelled that way and pronounced St. Croy so it's hardwired), I second the rec for the Pamplemousse (the cartons do also say Grapefruit, but I think we can agree that's not nearly as fun to say) and the harder-to-find Apricot. Not a big fan of any of the other flavors. (Tara & Dave, I saw your NY Seltzer haul, so you're probably all set, but I also really like the Lemon-Lime Canada Dry, if you can find that near you. That one is more flavorful and less metallic than most lemon or lime options, I think. Tastes like an unsweetened Sprite, to me.) Also a quick note of something I think on a weekly basis and then forget: I love the way you've incorporated ads. Really liked the EHG Micro on sisters this week. Rob, you seem like a good bro. 4 Link to comment
