Release Date: March 18, 2019

Patrick and Kat dip back into the wild world of The Mary Tyler Moore Show and this time they revisit an episode that TV Guide has named one of the funniest and most iconic moments of television. Yes, the time Chuckles the Clown, local hero, was killed by a rogue elephant at a circus parade. It's a sad... but funny look into how death can affect us all.

Plus, Howard Cosell takes a stab at variety television, John Belushi impersonates Joe Cocker, and Kat is shocked to learn that the current S.W.A.T. series is a reboot of an older action/crime drama television series from the mid 70s produced by our boy toy, Aaron Spelling.

In the early 1980s, Family Feud managed to tap into the retro-wave of yesteryear by bringing on the cast of Batman to battle it out with the case of Gilligan's Island. In the grand scheme of things, it was a fairly subpar game of Family Feud, but the way-too-long introduction clocking in at about ten minutes, raised a lot of questions for Patrick and Kat. Like, what was up with Richard Dawson's tuxedo? What's going on between Dawson and Dawn Wells? And, where the fuck was Bob Denver during all of this? 

Plus, Kat has to explain the appeal of Fame to Patrick, and the gossip-y sordid past of Louie Anderson.

Release Date: February 26, 2019

Patrick and Kat slip back into the world of daytime television and this time it is through the lens of the Capwell family and the other citizens of Santa Barbara. Yes, they discuss the first ever episode of the Bridget and Jerome Dobson led series which ran from 1984-1993. Sadly, they were kind of bored by it but they did love the use of a super catchy Peabo Bryson song and some ballsy scene involving a sniper rifle and a near bus crash on the Pacific Coast Highway. 

Plus, the sadly glossed over filmography of Robin Wright, Marlena Evans gets possessed by the devil, and the soap opera legend who inspired millions of young women to get a pap smear.

Episode #135: Newsradio - "Bitch Session"
Release Date: January 29, 2019

Patrick and Kat can't believe it has taken them this long to discuss Newsradio, but they are finally there. Newsradio was the critically acclaimed NBC sitcom that invaded the airwaves in the mid-to-late nineties, but never quite made the same impact that Seinfeld, Friends, and Will & Grace made on the general public. Anyway, the series was a vehicle for Dave Foley, but it was the fun ensemble, which included Joe Rogan, Phil Hartman, Vicki Lewis, Stephen Root and Khandi Alexander that added fuel to the fun.

Plus, we discuss coming up with fun nicknames for co-workers, Teri Hatcher's dwindling popularity and people not knowing who she is, confusing actors with other actors, and the quest for a Kathy Ireland cardboard cutout. Oooga!

Episode #134: Designing Women - "Julia Runs Over the First Amendment"
Release Date: January 22, 2019

Patrick and Kat dip into the world of Designing Women, which was a fun comedy the Tiffany Network blessed us with in the 80s and 90s. It was the story of a crew of southern belles, who ran a interior decorating business, and the gals often participated in HOT issues of the time. This week, the series hero, Julia Sugarbaker tackles the porn industry, when a nearby newsstand decides to sell SMUT.

Plus, we dish about GOOP, MacGyver, and why the Tanner family from ALF is awful.
