- The Purge, The Purge: Anarchy, The Purge: Election Year
Well, yes. In a sense of the word it is cheese.
Triple Play is back, one week later, but better late than never really in my opinion. And we’re watching basically the greatest movies we have ever watched for this podcast, it’s The Purge. What would you do during the Purge? I’d pirate The Purge movies to be honest, I think that’d be really weird and meta.
Show-notes:
5:22 The Return of the Archons is an original series Star Trek episode.8:28 Ethan Hawk played Todd Anderson in Dead Poets Society.9:11 He also played Goodnight Robicheaux in the new Magnificent 7.9:42 Gattaca is actually good. You should watch it.9:55 Don’t watch The Host though. Please, just don’t.11:31 300 might be the only movie where you can watch Spartans fight werewolves.11:44 Uncle Grandpa and Danger Mouse are cartoons shows.11:55 Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is Jane Austen’s lost 7th novel.12:01 Zipper isn’t a Blumhouse movie, but nobody has heard of it either way.12:45 Will the wait for the next season of True Detective be worth it?21:54 Suburbicon is a recent movie that apparently bombed.21:58 G-Force is a 2009 movie that didn’t bomb.29:50 The Santa Clause is the Citizen Kane of Christmas-themed movie trilogies.30:28 Upgrade is apparently pretty good.51:51 Rick and Morty is a show that represents all the bad things about modern American animation.Sources and other stuff:

Engage gadget uh regeneration… technique…
Coming right up on the end of good old Mr. Tennant’s run here. And Russell T.’s run as well, but the more important thing is Mr. Tennant.

In the name of Avon, Zen and Orac, amen.
The halfway mark has been passed and quickly discarded. We’re now, so to speak, on the downslope that forms the slow gradual decline and death for most television programs. Hopefully that’s not so for Blake’s 7 but we’re here to find out. It’s Aftermath, written by Terry Nation and aired on January 7, 1980.
Show-notes:
51:58 24 is a tv show. There are like 24 episodes or something. Or maybe there’s just 1 episode that’s 24 minutes long. Or 24 episodes that are each 24 hours long. Dunno.57:56 Here’s the initial discussion about the definition of science fiction. Comes up pretty early in the episode.1:00:18 The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing World, is a 1666 story by Margaret Cavendish.

How about that for a title? Too bad none of us speak Tritovore.
It’s Easter! Not really actually but like, it’s close enough. It’s a couple months late. Just pretend it’s Easter, I mean Easter doesn’t have a set date so we can just put it wherever we want. It’s Planet of the Dead, written by Russell T. Davies and Gareth Roberts, and aired on April 11, 2009.

Distant cousin of trickster god Low Key.
Chris Boucher is here to clean up Terry Nation’s mess.

This is the uncrossable leech sea.
This is it. We finally made it to the very first episode that Dylan watched of Doctor Who. Well before this podcast was even a glimmer in either of their eyes, there was The Next Doctor. It was written by Russell T. Davies and aired on December 25, 2008.

Are there any Rods who even listen to this podcast?
This week we argue about what Science Fiction is. I mean, you’d expect us to do that when the podcast started, when we first started watching Blake’s 7, an allegedly seminal Science Fiction Television Show. But we didn’t until now, so that’s kind of fun. It’s The Keeper, written by Alan Prior and aired on March 27, 1979.
Show-notes:
16:33 Fallout is a video game series. They announced a new one a few weeks ago.

That’s all there is to it. Break glass and win.
This is the end of the Russell T. era. Sort of. Almost. Kind of. Just kidding. There’s still like 4 more weeks for us to go, but it’s basically over. Russell T. has basically thrown in the towel, given us the best season finale of the reboot (so far) and now is going to coast and rest on his laurels until he can basically throw the reigns off onto Stephen Moffat. It’s The Stolen Earth and Journey’s end, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on June 28 and July 5, 2008.
Show-notes:
1:30 Sorry for linking to Know Your Meme.1:57 Ocean’s 8 is the sequel to Magnificent 7.5:56 Richard Dawkins is an evolutionary biologist and writer, but I’m pretty sure he’s mostly famous for being a douchebag to anyone who believes in religion.10:10 Sarah Jane also encountered the Daleks in Death to the Daleks.19:14 Here’s the Blake’s 7 forum I was talking about.28:06 Here’s the image with all the companions leading up to Rose.

Why are you hitting yourself?
In what is a common occurrence on Trust Your Doctor but what appears to be rather rare on Zenith, we completely disregard fan wisdom and go way against the grain and basically just form an opinion so far removed from common knowledge that people were dreading this episode before it even went out. It’s Gambit, written by Robert Holmes and aired on March 20, 1979.
