Highlander Rewatched

As always, the Rewatchers have accumulated an unholy pile of listener mail and they answer your comments and queries in this special bonus episode! Join the Rewatchers as they unbox more Highlander loot (catch the live video on the Highlander Rewatched Facebook page), take down some surprisingly inspiring "rap snacks," and can't believe that a fan managed to make the world's grossest Highlander sex joke (SPOILER: it involves macaroni).

Evil Dunc-y arrives in France to star in some incredibly rape-y cuckolding scenarios, but Methos saves him by dipping him in a magic green puddle. The Rewatchers try to figure out if Mr. Burns has magic powers, cheer at a MacLeod Mirror Match, and do some heavy Highlander rewrites.

After Mac's friend Coltec has a close shave with one Harry Kant too many and succumbs to a "Dark Quickening," Duncan must stop his old friend without becoming a woman-punching wierdo himself (spoiler alert, he punches that woman). The Rewatchers discuss some odd new video effects, dissect Joe's drinking problem, and rejoice in the world's hottest (pun intended) beat poem.

When nothing happens in this episode, Mac is reminded of a time during World War II when nothing happened. Also, Anne is back and skulks into a collapsed subway to give birth and become the target of sexist rants by jerks on the internet. The Rewatchers delve deep into a smorgasbord of nothing, crack nothing jokes, and recount the world’s craziest speech about nothing (and Nazis!). Also, they defend Anne for one last time.

When the outlandishly dramatic Walter (Dr. Jacoby?) comes to town intent on murdering a pre-immortal piano prodigy in order to preserve her (meh) genius, Duncan must stop this fashion inept weirdo from crossing the line in his pursuit of the arts. The Rewatchers debate whether Walter is compelling or a creep (or both), try to figure out Methos’s sudden obsession with a dying waitress, and discuss their favorite new game, Duncans in Drag-ons.

Mac’s perplexing code of honor rears it’s hypocritical head when Richie climbs in bed (literally) with Duncan’s murderous immortal ex. The Rewatchers discuss Duncan’s baffling infatuation with a horrible painter, paint all over Methos’s nose, and get grossed out by the number of wet sounds.

After Mac’s university colleague acquires an ancient Indian statue, the statue’s guardian Kamir comes to Seacouver to reclaim it, present reasonable moral quandaries, and then (in classic Highlander fashion), go completely off the rails. The Rewatchers discuss the etymology of the word thug, the ethics of modern museums, and rant about neo-nazis.

When Mac foils a hit on a morally dubious grocer perpetrated by Paul Kinman, an inept immortal assassin that once killed Mac’s croquet partner in the Court of Queen Victoria, Duncan must decide whether to testify against Kinman in public or privately relieve him of his head. The Rewatchers delve into the communal aspects of justice, discuss the surprising fate of director Neill Fearnley, and rip the supposedly innocent shopkeeper a new one.

The Rewatchers received so many passionate responses about their last few pods that the fans deserve their own bonus episode to hash out fan theories, tease their hosts, and air their grievances. Join the Rewatchers to hear more fans pile onto Keith, a new fan created “Darkness” sequel, and a very special letter from a Highlander writer.

Mac’s date night with Joe and Amanda is rudely interrupted by Colonel Spider-Man, who seeks revenge for 70 years of incarceration by abducting Duncan and Amanda’s creepy doppelgänger. The Rewatchers discuss a sweet sword throw, the world’s weirdest quickening, the groan inducing arachnotorium, and the strange similarities with the previous episode.
