One Hundred and Eighty-Niven

 

This week’s episode is all about television, as Jose and I go over a huge chunk of the networks’ pilot pickups, renewals, and cancellations. This year seems to be a little light on genre-related stuff, and everyone knows we (okay, maybe it’s just me) hate comedies, so it’s a bit of a wasteland. You can check out some video for all of NBC’s new shows (except Hannibal and the pirate show) right here. The Revolution trailer is basically a four and a half minute summation of the entire first episode, which is a strange strategy. Also be sure to watch the 1600 Penn interview with Bill Pullman, who really didn’t want to be talking about this show and would rather have been talking to his agent to find out what he’s going to do once NBC cancels it.

We also go over the latest records Avengers broke this weekend, and Jose lovingly discusses yelling at his television in made-up dragon language. Oh, and here is the Hulk-out list that we promised you last week, in which every single thing that made Bill Bixby turn into the Hulk in the original TV series is listed. Some of them are pretty hilarious.

Finally, here’s a link to our appearance on last week’s Ready Room podcast on TrekFM. Jose and I joined Trek guru Larry Nemecek to talk about the current state of Star Trek and what we may see in the future. We’re in at around the 43 minute mark, and proceed to talk for 90 minutes. Many thanks to Greg and Chris for having us on.
