Over the years, overweight people were ridiculed on television and in the movies as slow, messy, dumb, lazy, and were often the butt of jokes.  One show avoided those stereotypes, showing a trio of overweight sisters trying to improve themselves health-wise and career-wise, and being empathetic souls looking out for their fellow men.  Credit Babes for attempting to dispel the outdated stereotypes, though the series only lasted a single season.

The newest edition of the SCTM sees a big reveal in the Masked Man storyline as Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair's careers are on the line in a Steel Cage for the WCW title.

Greg and Dane discuss Terry Funk being awesome, Big Boss Man Behaving Badly five years early, and Dave Sullivan's new theme song, among others. Don't *BUTCHER* listening to this episode!

As happens in the TV business, having a successful TV movie equates to a run as a series.  This is no different, holding its own versus some huge 1985 competition.  The later series?  Not so much, against that same competition.  Robert Blake starred as a tough but fair priest in a tough and not-so-fair portion of Los Angeles, trying to make Hell Town not so hellish.

It's October of 1993 in the newest episode of The Squared Circle Time Machine as Greg and Dane look at an episode of Monday Night RAW where Randy Savage and Crush meet head-on to try and settle their issues. Meanwhile, the good folks at the WWF are making us call a 1-900 line to ask us if Shawn Michaels should be reinstated.

Plus, we got a rare Joe Fowler in the WWF sighting on the Podcast! How about that?

We have returned with another batch of those wacky commercials from all parts of the U.S.  Ladies (and guys), let's have a Hometown Commercial party.

With TNA Bound for Glory 2025 happening tonight, as of the posting of this episode, we look back on the 15th Anniversary this week of a date that only comes once a Century! 10.10.10! Greg and Dane look at TNA Bound for Glory 2010!

Greg and Dane look at various things on this show, including a Lethal Lockdown match between EV 2.0 and Fortune, Mickie James' TNA debut, RVD and Abyss in a Monsters Ball match, and the three-way match for the vacant TNA World Title between Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy, and Mr. Anderson.

THEY want you to listen to this episode!

Our SNL 50th birthday celebration wraps up with a contender to the throne which was a direct rip-off of SNL; the head of ABC admitted as much!  Fridays had its moments, but it sorely missed making recurring characters who would be remembered nowadays.  It also had thrilling guest hosts like Henny Youngman!  Grab a bite to eat, as this is one of our longest shows to date.

In Fall 1975, two different shows named Saturday Night Live premiered--the one we know, albeit without the Live moniker, and this show, a variety/talk show hosted by arguably ABC's biggest personality (and definitely ABC's biggest mouth) at the time.  Despite its deserving role as one of the worst shows in television history, very little footage of this series exists...which may be a good thing.

The Masked Man arc continues on the SCTM as Greg and Dane go to Center Stage in Atlanta for a special live episode of the WCW Main Event as Hulk Hogan and Dave Sullivan team up against Ric Flair and a mystery partner.

We also react to Ric Flair putting his career on the line against Hogan's at the upcoming Halloween Havoc PPV, along with discussion regarding the Honky Tonk Man, the Sega 32X, and a young Road Dogg as a jobber for Double A.

The 50th anniversary of Saturday Night Live's premiere is happening next week, on October 11th. As the 51st season of SNL starts tomorrow night, we decided to look at another disastrous SNL season, having covered Season 6 (episode 97) and Season 11 (episode 265) previously.  SNL was at a time of weakness, having lost key contributors in the previous year.  The show lost even more contributors in S20.  To add insult to injury, there would be a new kid on the block on another network.
