Jeff and Mark are back for another dive into TV’s lost worlds with the 2011 Fox sci-fi series, TERRA NOVA. What happens when a cop, a doctor, and their angsty kids time-travel to a prehistoric colony? More importantly, what happens when Steven Spielberg puts his dinosaurs into your dad fantasy fic? Only one way to find out!

What do dinosaurs, family dramas, and time traveling cops have in common? More than you would think...

It’s the final episode of KINGS and everything is coming to a head. On the card we have: King Silas vs. Prince Jack. Golden Boy vs. the world. Tanks vs. soldiers. The glimmering potential of this series vs. the failings of its execution. And Jeff and Mark vs. their first One Season Wonders verdict. Don’t miss it!

On its penultimate episode, Kings takes the fight to the streets and almost wins us over. With David on the chopping block and a revolution brewing behind the scenes, all that’s left for the show to do is light the fuse and watch the fireworks. And they don’t disappoint! Mostly. Also in this episode: a hilarious assassination attempt, King Silas’s DVD redistribution plan, and Home Alone being a delightful weirdo.

All rise for the courtroom chaos of KINGS, the honorable Episode 11 presiding! Golden Boy is brought to trial for treason, and Mark and Jeff are brought to the brink of losing their minds in the process. Alliances are built, broken, then burnt to the ground as the story of Shiloh rapidly collapses to towards its glorious (?) end. At least King Silas finds the time to wave knives at family members and take magical trips to his local Ralph’s. He’s really just like one of us, you guys.

Jeff and Mark dive into episode ten of the MSNBC drama, Kings.

It’s an episode of wild intrigue and bumbling manipulation in this ninth chapter of KINGS. When Prince Jack’s lover threatens to expose his homosexuality, the entire kingdom is thrown into a domino-chain of backstabbing. Meanwhile Home Alone reads newspapers ominously, and our favorite Golden Boy goes camping with a maniac.

What starts as a supremely petty party crash transforms into something magical on this surprisingly supernatural episode of KINGS. King Silas wanders his home, tangling with spirits of the past, while the Golden Boy and Princess enjoy the most chill mass failure of infrastructure ever. It’s strange, it’s a little silly, and we can’t get enough of it. Uh, also: mf’in DEATH shows up. Like for reals. You’re gonna wanna hear this one.

KINGS gets down with the sickness for an invigorating and infuriating 7th episode. An über-plague descends on the city of Shiloh, bringing out the best and worst of its many citizens. Meanwhile, Jeff and Mark try to untangle the most poorly-structured assassination plot of the season, and figure out why Prince Dirtbag carries a roll of quarters into battle (the answer may surprise you).

It’s Judgement Day in the Kingdom of Galboa, and that means everything is up for grabs and nothing makes sense. Mark and Jeff try to untangle the rules of this judicial improv ceremony, and discover they have surprisingly different feelings on the matter. Will the anything-goes atmosphere be their undoing? Probably not.
