Back on the Block episodes
- Little House in the Big Crab Shack
Somehow, every single character got benched in this episode. Oh well — more time to talk about Hilary Swank!
55 min - Short But SweetSpecial Guest Star Alyssa Maher joins us for a fun discussion of "The Great British Baking Show," "The Trial of the Chicago 7," and "The Vow."35 min
- But What About The Maltese Falcon?It's Christmastime on the block! And we've been gifted a confusing auction, a trip to Santa Barbara, guest stars Chad Lowe and Donna Mills, a major breakup, and Special Guest Star Alyssa Maher!1 hr 19 min
- The Peter Principle Is Great In PrincipleWe talk scary things like "The Haunting of Bly Manor" and "Hubie Halloween," stupid things like "Emily in Paris," timely things like "Saturday Night Live" and timeless things like "Peggy Sue Got Married," "Married to the Mob," "Something Wild," and "Xanadu." (It makes sense, we swear!)38 min
- All of Our Heroines Are LosingEvery storyline is full of pity, from Jane's search for her birth mother to Amanda's failing marriage, from Syd's love jones to Allison's lack of screen time. Plus: Peter learns a secret.54 min
- Make No Mistake, We’re Down
From “ The Boys” to “The Boys in the Band” to “Gilmore Girls,” we take a wide detour through culture past and present on this Hollywood Boulevard. The lesson: Karen is even more coherent when she is exhausted.
50 min - Middle Management Sucks
What lies next for Kyle and Sydney? Apparently, not much. Jane hunts for her mom, Kimberly files divorce papers, and Megan has quite a saunter.
1 hr 5 min - There's Good TV, and Then There's Ryan Murphy
Karen and I talk about such TV shows as “PEN15,” “Class Action Park,” “Ratched,” “I May Destroy You,” and Karen has a throwback recommendation for those who miss theatre.
44 min - We’re So Apathetic, It’s Great
She may be dying, but Kimberly is still calling the shots with Michael — and Megan too. Plus the hits keep on coming for Jane and for Matt!
1 hr 2 min - Redemption for Alison
Lots of men do dumb things in this episode. Meanwhile, Kimberly continues to reel from her diagnosis, Amanda eats macaroni and cheese with a spork, Jane feels all at sea, and Alison saves the day!
