So, What‘s the Problem? episodes

  • Drop the Pilot- Bunco (1977)
    Tysto returns to talk Bunco (1977) a cop show starring Robert Urich and Tom Selleck as two useless cops who do absolutely nothing and leave most of the work to a female cop while they sit around. Yet they are treated as though they are good at their jobs. It's not a parody.

  • The Owl (1991)
    Adrian Paul is the titular hero in this dull action pilot directed by Tom (Fright Night, Child's Play) Holland. We talk the action. the acting, Paul's accent and wonder just what The Owl actually is. Is he human or a mutant? We'll never know. Or care, really.

  • Not Another High School Show (2007)
    Jimmy is joined by Jen from the Pilot Inspectors podcast to chat about a 2007 pilot that spoofs shows such as The O.C, Buffy and Dawson's Creek. It's a fun discussion about not a very fun show but we hope you enjoy.

  • Callahan (1982)

  • B-Men (1989)
    Jimmy is joined by John Pavlich from the Sofa Dogs podcast to discuss B-Men, written by Dave Thomas and directed by Steve Miner. They discuss the casting, the problematic nature of a certain character and Jimmy takes the time to crap on the Clerks pilot from the last episode again. The great 80s theme to B-Men can be heard at the end of the episode.
    53 min
  • Clerks (1995)
    Jimmy is joined by Owen Ward to chat about the terrible 1995 sit-com pilot of Clerks. It was made without the help of Kevin Smith and we discuss its "humour", its cast and basically just wonder why it happened. This podcast contains mild bad language. Think of it as rated PG-13. Or PG, if this was the 1980s.

  • The Robinsons: Lost in Space (2004)
    Jimmy and Tysto chat about the John Woo directed pilot The Robinsons: Lost in Space. They talk about how it is half WB teen drama and half John Woo action movie on a TV budget. They also wonder just where Dr. Smith is. They can't find him anywhere. Do you know? What do you mean "have you checked under the couch?"

  • Tag Team (1991)
    Jimmy is joined by professional magician and wrestling fan Leigh Milne to chat about Tag Team from 1991. The pilot stars Jesse Ventura and Roddy Piper as wrestlers who get fired and become police officers. As you do. WARNING: contains two genuine Scottish accents instead of one.
    37 min
  • Evel Knievel (1974)
    Jimmy is joined by Tysto to chat about the failed 1974 pilot based on the movie based on the life of Evel Knievel. They have fun discussing the incredibly light plot, the non-mystery of who the bad guy is and the rather darn good theme tune.
