Made for TV Mayhem Show

Happy Holidays to one and all! Amanda recently recorded a "pilot" episode of sorts with Vinegar Syndrome extras producer extraordinaire Ewan Cant, and it's all about slashers. It's called the One by One cast, and for this intro episode, Amanda and Ewan discuss the recent VS release Don't Open Till Christmas, which they also provided a commentary track for. We're hoping to make this spinoff a regular thing (as regular as The Made for TV Mayhem Show is anyway!! But, most importantly we hope you enjoy it, and have a wonderful Christmas holiday as well!

The Made for TV Mayhem Show is B.A.C.K. And just in time for Halloween! On this episode we're talking about two Curtis Harrington classics: The Cat Creature (1973) and Killer Bees (1974). Dan and Nate also throw out some of their favorite scary movie horror moments in tribute of Shudder's new series, 101 Scariest Horror Movie Moments of All Time (which I can be seen on!). Yay. We hope you enjoy this one. We've missed you!

We're back! Join Dan, Nate and Amanda for a discussion about Jeannot Szwarc's two stellar ABC Movie of the Weeks: Night of Terror (1972) and You'll Never See Me Again (1973). And we'll promise not to stay away so long this time. Thanks so much for your patience, and most of all thank you so much for listening! (*and extra thanks to Dan for editing this episode!)

I really, really wanted to get this next Trap-Cast online, since I'm covering the last two episodes that aired in 1979. Seemed fitting. So, for this show, I'm discussing The Surrogate and Who's Little Hero Are You? Enjoy (please!)!

The Made for TV Mayhem Show has returned to celebrate what would have been Charles Bronson's 100th birthday! To help us ring in this - the holiest of holy days - we invited James Newton of Newton Talks (https://jamesedwardnewton.com/) to discuss three of Bronson's lesser talked about small screen appearances: the pilot for Man with a Camera (1958), One Step Beyond's eerie entry The Last Round (1961) and the 1993 cop thriller TV movie Donato and Daughter! We had a lot of fun, although there were technical woes aplenty, so please be patient with any sound issues or choppy edits. We had to record in "chapters" because of several dropouts. But we gave all of our love to Bronson, and we hope you enjoy it!

We're back! Well, we were back a while ago, but it took a long time to edit this because 2021 has shown no mercy. A big shout out to Dan for his help on getting this one edited! On this episode, you'll find Dan and Amanda palling around with Shawnee Smith and Tammy Lauren for this SS / TL twofer, Crime of Innocence (1985) and I Saw What You Did (1988). We're also hoping to get back on schedule and have some shows planned for the very near future. Thank you for your patience, and we hope you enjoy!

We're back with a very special episode! February 6th, 2021 marks the 40th anniversary of This House Possessed, which aired on this day in 1981. It's looking good at 40, and to celebrate, I sat down with Parker Stevenson to discuss the great little horror telefilm that keeps on going. After the interview join Dan, Nate and myself for a discussion of the film. And thank you, Parker Stevenson for being so kind and giving us a little background on This House Possessed. Hope everyone enjoys, and as always, thank you for listening!

Trapper John and his merry band of trouble-making do-gooders is back! Here is episode of five of the Trap-Cast. I discuss the season one episodes Taxi in the Rain and Licensed to Kill. Thank you for listening and I do hope you enjoy!

It hasn't even been a month, and we are back! We couldn't let the holiday season pass by without inviting our great friend Joanna Wilson of Christmas TV History back for our annual yuletide episode! We spend a little time stuck behind a forcefield with a lovable (but deadly) alien named Glim Gilm, who was a part of the Monsters TV series. And we play the holiday movie game, which is always fun. So grab your eggnog and celebrate the season in style.

And a big thank you to everyone who stuck it out with us this  year. I know it hasn't always been consistent, but, like everyone else in the year 2020, we're doing our best. We appreciate all of you, and hope you have a wonderful end to a not-so-wonderful year! See you next year. It's gonna look a lot like the 1970s-1990s for us!
