EAG46 July 28, 2017 Share July 28, 2017 I was thinking you were doing actual monumental figures of television. My line of thought was; Lucille Ball, Norman Lear, Edward R. Murrow, maybe Philo Farnsworth as the Crazy Horse monument since he INVENTED television...but honestly I can't argue with having Bea Arthur or Jerry Orbach memorialized in stone. Link to comment
MisterGlass July 29, 2017 Share July 29, 2017 I also thought it would be TV icons like Lucille Ball. Philo Farnsworth is a good call.I wouldn't mind an all Star Trek Mt. Rushmore - Spock and Kirk, Picard and Data. Link to comment

John Potts August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 I'd like a documentary on why Las Vegas attracts so many serial killers (at least in the CSI-verse). I don't think there was a season without at least one (though the same could probably be said of other crime procedurals, too). 1 Link to comment
Tara Ariano August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 There's no way any of your panelists is giving Lucille Ball shit, sorry. Link to comment
John Potts August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 All animated foursome: Mickey Mouse, Fred Flintstone, Homer Simpson and Turonga Leela. It would give a sweep of Animated TV from pretty much its start right up to (near) the present day and includes only one white male! Link to comment
caitmcg August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 Speaking of serial killers, we might need a documentary on Dexter Morgan, vigilante serial killer of killers. When for some reason Miami's harbor is dredged and a bunch of plastic bags of people parts/bones turn up, and DNA testing matches them to wanted murderers, you've got a mystery to investigate. 2 Link to comment
Primetimer August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 It's a double-date episode (aw) (barf) as Sarah D. Bunting's husband, Dan Brady, joins the panel to discuss the Lowe family's foray into the supernatural. View the full article Link to comment
MuuMuuChainsmoker August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 Further to the Forcenings podcast idea, I was wondering during this pod whether Dave would consider a Pay Per Forcenings type of scenario similar to the personal pod ads. Cause I can think of a few Forcenings I would crowdfunding the hell out of. Link to comment

eteffi August 3, 2017 Share August 3, 2017 I can't believe I'm about to say this, but... I wholeheartedly agree with Dave on a Canon submission. By Season 6 of The Office, I wanted Pam and Jim to get their snooty, condescending asses right out of Scranton and off my television screen forever (which is a nicer way of saying I wished they would straight-up die in a fire). They were THE WORST and I hated their schmoopy wedding and dumb pregnancy. My hatred for Jim and Pam was especially sad for me because I so cherished Seasons 2-5 of that show (i.e., up to and until Jim and Pam got together and turned into a-holes). But at least I know at least one other misanthrope (hi Dave) sees things the way I do! Link to comment
messyone15 August 3, 2017 Share August 3, 2017 When I first saw the title, I got excited that this was a collection of Allison Lowe-Huff's favorite things. Oooooh, a different Lowe! Link to comment
torontomeridith August 3, 2017 Share August 3, 2017 I actually think about this more often than is normal. I know that Hartman would be all over the podcast world, if he were still around. He'd be like a elder Paul F. Tompkins appearing on any and every show. 1 Link to comment

David T. Cole August 7, 2017 Author Share August 7, 2017 Oops. It's been 30 years since I read BNW. Got my references wrong. Link to comment
helent August 8, 2017 Share August 8, 2017 (edited) There's a line in the REM song Man on the Moon 'Moses went walking with a staff of wood' which, post reading Brave New World in high school, I mis-heard as 'Moses went walking with Mustapha Mond'. I may have written a somewhat cringey letter to Michael Stipe about how clever the line, which was clearly a request for praise for getting the reference. I may have also included a mix tape. Still, it's only reason I can still name one of the characters of BNW. Edited August 8, 2017 by helent Link to comment

Stowaway August 8, 2017 Share August 8, 2017 Rock 30. On the eve of entering their fourth decade, a group of Cleveland professionals quit their day jobs and re-form the band they started in high school. Starring Brian Austin Green, James Van Der Beek, and a bunch of other people who are actually in their 40s. Black Orphan. Antoine didn't just lose his parents in the accident, he also gained some amazing superpowers. Now he fights crime on the streets of Keystone City, in the latest installment of the careening out of control Berlantiverse. Rupert Everett costars as Fagin, the hero's flamboyant arch-nemesis. Men Mad. Situation comedy in which a group of recently divorced Men's Rights Activists are forced by circumstances to share a home (which they optimistically refer to as "The Compound"). Stephanie Allynne and Tig Notaro costar as the married couple who live next door. (I was going to do one for Anatomy Greys, about a group of aliens who live and love in Roswell, New Mexico while learning to perform probes on humans. . . but I think that might be the plot of an actual show on TBS?)

Stowaway August 9, 2017 Share August 9, 2017 I watched Wet Hot American Summer over the weekend, and my reactions were two. 1) If Netflix hadn't been constantly prompting me to continue, I would have forgotten I was watching it, and possibly forgotten that this version had ever even existed. 2) It made me genuinely sad to see so many people I like waste their time on something so uninspired (but I don't know, maybe my medication is just off).

Same when I listen on the site through my phone or with an Android tablet. FWIW, when I listen on my laptop, the clips seem to be in very wide stereo, like I have one speaker five feet to my left and another five feet to my right, completely unlike the rest of the show.

swimmyfish August 10, 2017 Share August 10, 2017 (edited) Aw, what a great canon pitch! I remember reading the memorial on Fametracker when John Ritter passed away, it cited this episode which I hadn't seen before, and it linked to a brief part of the sequence of him dancing, which was so remarkably joyful on top of being so, so funny. It's great to be reminded of it again, and I'm so glad it was deemed canon-worthy. My Blinds name is Calvin Kelly. I hope I get to be a dancer. Edited August 10, 2017 by swimmyfish Link to comment
