Critically Acclaimed Network

When THE IDOL got canceled, everyone made sure we knew about it. And we swore at that time that we would, someday, cover the most notorious TV dud in years on CANCELED TOO SOON.

Today, dear listeners, is that day. Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd lead a staggeringly impressive cast in Sam Levinson's prurient, cynical, baffling erotic (?) thriller (?) drama (?) about a young music star who falls in with a creepy abuser, whose humiliations and tortures bring out the best in her music.

Was it CANCELED TOO SOON? By god, we are about to find out.

We're kicking off a new season of CANCELED TOO SOON with one of our most requested episodes ever: CAVEMEN (2007), a very short-lived sitcom based on the popular commercials from GEICO, in which cavemen still walk among us but have to contend with racism and stereotypes.

Co-starring Nick Kroll, Sam Huntington, Jeff Daniel Phillips and Julie White, it's one of the most notorious misfires in television history.

But was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? You're about to find out!

Because our patrons demanded it, William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold present their picks for THE BEST MOVIES THAT BEGIN WITH THE LETTER J!

Any movie that starts with the letter "J" qualifies, and since there are relatively few movies that actually do begin with the letter "J," it's going to be an eclectic episode.

So strap in, and hey, this podcast is over 2 1/2 hours!

Bibbs and Witney are on a bit of a break after completing THANK GODZILLA, IT'S FRIDAY but that doesn't mean they've stopped making podcasts!

In an all-new WE'VE GOT MAIL, they're answering questions about where giant monsters come from, their favorite horror musicals, what it means when a movie is a "cash grab," and the reasons why so many filmmakers think it's wrong to speak openly about what they don't like about other films!
