So, What‘s the Problem? episodes

  • Marlowe (2007)
    Martin returns to talk about the rather bland Marlowe, an updated telling of the classic Raymond Chandler character, Philip Marlowe. Jimmy tries to get through the somewhat complicated plot as quickly as possible... well, they think it's complicated, Martin was ill with the flu and Jimmy wasn't really interested in it. Enjoy!

  • Wheres Rodney (1990)
    Tysto and I delve into the odd world of a teenage boy who can summon his hero, Rodney Dangerfield, any time he wants. Much to the comedian's surprise... for thirty seconds, he accepts it pretty quickly. I would say it's just an excuse for Dangerfield to make jokes and while he does, he is actually barely in it. The pilot also has a lot of recognizable faces in it and a theme song that sounds like "Who's Johnny" by El DeBarge...

  • Battletoads (1992)
    Owen Ward from the Extended Edition podcast joins me to talk about the podcast's first animated pilot. And it's a lazy TMNT knock off. It also happens to be based on a game. That is a TMNT knock off. It has S&M outfit wearing bad guys, the main female character wearing a skimpy outfit that almost shows boob and phallic shaped buildings. You know, for kids!

  • Collector's Item (1958)
    Jimmy is again joined by his friend Tysto to talk about a pilot so old, it's in black and white. Collector's Item from 1958 stars Vincent Price and Peter Lorre, so listen to Jimmy and Tysto as they try to work out just how this could have become a series. It's really not that evident, watching the pilot.

  • Heat Vision and Jack (1999)
    Martin from the Extended Edition Podcast returns to annoy me once again as we chat about the Ben Stiller directed Heat Vision and Jack (1999). We talk about the cast, music etc and I make an announcement about doing spoof/parody shows on the podcast. Spoiler: this is the last.

  • Clarissa Now (1995)
    Jen from Pilot Inspectors returns to talk to me about the 1995 sequel pilot Clarissa Now. Jen is a fan of the original show which I think I have seen one or two episodes of. Also, in a first for this podcast, Jen actually watched this pilot air on TV back in October 1995. Note: there may be the odd sound issue with this but I don't think it is too distracting. Enjoy!

  • Baffled (1973) Part 2
    Tysto is still here to continue to chat about Baffled and the mystery that everyone is talking about will finally be solved- Will Tysto finally understand just what is going on?

  • Drop the Pilot- Baffled (1973) Part 1
    Tysto returns to talk about the 1973 feature length oddity, Baffled starring Leonard Nimoy. We chat about the cast, the music, the setting but mostly, I wonder at Tysto's amazing inability to follow the plot.

  • Drop the Pilot- Star Patrol! (2000)
    Martin from the soon-to-be-no-more-but-currently-still-a-thing podcast Extended Edition, joins me to natter about the lame 2000 pilot Star Patrol. A Star Trek parody directed by none other than Jonathan Frakes. We talk about the cast, where the show may have gone and just how impractical it would be for an actress to have fake wings strapped to her back on a weekly basis. Enjoy!

  • Drop the Pilot- Jim Henson's Inner Tube (1987)
    The wonderful David Misch returns to the show to chat about Inner Tube, which he wrote and was directed by Jim Henson. We also talk about his contributions to Muppets Take Manhattan and Frank Oz's Little Shop of Horrors. It's a fun chat, enjoy!
