The Episode One Podcast

We've got a short (for us) episode tonight.

The twice renewed Krapopolis has finally aired. Was it worth the wait (and the hype?)

We probably ended up talking a bit more about the history and scheduling of the show than the show itself. But it was a unique show and a unique story.

Let us know what you think, and follow us! linktr.ee/episodeonepod

Apologies for the poor audio quality. Chris didn't realize the worng microphone was selected. He sounds like he's on a boat with Luffy.

We finally review one of the One shows, after a missed opportunity in 2020, we have a second chance at One Piece.

We marvel at the history of the Manga and Anime, then dig into how they seemingly did everything right in this adaptation.

Plus we dig deep into Skrull steve.

Finally, Star Wars on the episode one podcast.

Again.

But this time, we feature a character directly tied to Star Wars Episode One. Ahsoka is technically Qui-Gon's Great Grand Padawan. (it makes sense if you're weird)

Is the Star Wars universe reaching MCU's level of over saturation? Or is this the perfect thing to watch as we head towards the no-content age?

All this plus Crossovers and 30 second pitches.

So wait, whose adventures? Chris's Steve's? Lois? Jimmy Olsen's? Mxyzptlk?

It's a new Animated series airing on Adult Swim and Streaming on Max (which we will never get used to saying)

It's got an Anime vibe, and it's really fun, enjoy it with us!

Skrulls? we don't got no stinking Skrulls?

Or do we? Steve may have been replaced by a Skrull? Who else is a Skrull? What exactly is happening in Moscow? And di MArvel pull off making the MCU version of a storyline better than the comic one... again?

All this, plus we enter the Urkelverse, on the episode one podcast.

Special thanks to Arnold Schwarzenegger's Pump Club https://schwarzenegger.ck.page/19c6c79315

Not a sponsor, but we got to see an early Fan Screening and Red Carpet experience via 1iota due to Arnold's Pump Club.

This week we watched episode one of Arnold's first TV Show, Fubar!

As Chief Action Officer at Netflix, does this True Lies adjacent series work?

All that plus Crossovers and 30 second pitches on this Episode One Podcast!

Two very different shows, with one commonality, Chris and Steve were each very afraid! but guess who was afraid of which?

at 6:25 we dive into the newest True Crime show on Hulu/Disney + star. The Clearing is a true crime story about the Australian cult "The Family" And it is pretty creepy.

Then at 30:35 we cover the newest Muppets Show. Muppet Mayhem! And it's brought to us by The Goldbergs?

All this, plus crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Solidarity with WGA.

As writers ourselves we hope for both a quick, but effective resolution to the Writer's Strike.

This week we are checking out the remake, of the 80s film, on Paramount Plus.

Fatal Attraction.

Can Pacey live up to Michael Douglas? Will steve and Chris fall in love with Lizzy Caplan again?

All this plus crossovers and 30 second pitches!

Join Steve and Chris to discuss what may be the deepest digging a reboot/prequel/sequel series has ever done.

A prequel to the 1978 movie Grease! And you know what, it kind of works. But Steve is afraid of the music. The music Jerry!.

Steve also watched the brand new (to the US) Hulu Show Am I Being Unreasonable. Another BBC to Hulu transplant, it has serious Life after Beth vibes, but in a good way!

All that plus a Riverdale crossover pitch, and some deep 70s 30 second pitches!

The Arrowverse is dead.

Arrow has ended. The Flash is ending, Stargirl is Gone. Batwoman? Lois and Clark's future is unknown.

But Gotham Knights is here to avenge, well someone's death (Batman's). While not directly based off the recent video game it shares a lot.

Chris and Steve talk about the interesting choices, the semi obscure characters used (to great effect) and discuss if a season 2 would, or should be in the cards.

All this plus a 30 second pitch that includes a lot of Spiderman... and a reference to the Trouble comic series.
