Steel Justice (1992)

Jim Cliff from the Fallacious Trump Podcast returns to chat about the really rather weird Steel Justice AKA Robosaurus. It's a Blade Runner wannabe but with a giant metal dinosaur inhabited by the soul of a cop's murdered son. There is also a time travelling magic immortal monk for added whatthefuckery. Enjoy!

Young MacGyver (2003)

Jen from the Pilot Inspectors podcast returns to talk to me about the first time that they tried to make a new MacGyver series. It failed but it's lead is currently on his 14th season of a popular TV show, so it's all good. We talk the original (kind of), the cast and marvel at the sheer blandness of it all.It is so dull, Jen zones out for a bit. She talks so little after a while that I have actually kept in a long tangent about Fifty Shades of Grey. Enjoy! This was recorded before news of Supernatural's cancellation was announced.

Bonus: Outtakes and Bloopers (uncensored)

Hi, as a quick wee bonus episode here are deleted conversations and bloopers from previous ones. Here you will find conversations about the Home Alone franchise and Carrie, an instance where Owen has to leave briefly to answer a knock at his front door, me defending the storytelling in a franchise I don't even really like much and another of my guests telling us what their favourite pilot of all time is. Oh and there is my f-bomb laden tirade against a certain high profile video hosting site among other things. Jimmy Brown's views are his own and really should be ignored. Seriously, f**k that guy, what does he know? Contains strong language, which makes the censoring that last sentence particularity weird...

Korgoth of Barbaria (2006)

Owen returns to talk about the very violent Adult Swim animated pilot Korgoth of Barbaria. We talk about the animation, the voice cast, the kick-ass music and disagree about what the show may have become if it got renewed. This is one of those rare pilots that, although it never got picked up, still gets shown occasionally and as recent as January 2019. Enjoy as I get a bit lost for words at a certain plot development. It is not available on Youtube, only Dailymotion, the link is below as usual.

Bonus: Buffy the Animated Series

Jen from Pilot Inspectors and soon to be a regular host on the Once More With Feeling podcast joins me to talk about the animated demo/pilot for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. We talk about why it didn't get picked up as well as the cast who return, the ones who don't and the animation style. It's under 4 minutes long, so I thought this would make for a good bonus episode. Contains strong language and spoilers for Buffy (including the season 8 comics) and the finale of Angel, sorry. The short is on Youtube and I have linked to it below. End music: Buffy Theme by Nerf Herder, covered by Epic Trailer Music UK

Shivers (1989)

During our Coming to America episode, I told Tysto that it aired on the same night as a pilot called Shivers and that I would cover it eventually. Well, just over a year later, here we are! Was it worth the wait? What do you think? It's basically a Beetlejuice rip-off and there is so little to talk about, we end up looking through the cast's entries on IMBD to find something, anything interesting. Then I pad it out with music at the end, enjoy!

Bonus: Baffled- The Complete Version

Last year, Tysto and I recorded an episode for the 1970s supernatural thriller Baffled starring Leonard Nimoy. It was so long, I released it as two parts but here it is as one long-ass episode. So, you can enjoy Tysto's descent into madness in all it's glory, mistakes, tangents, overused running gags and all. It's extended too, with bits that were previously edited out and it contains strong language.
