Our ensemble talks about the soon to be Broadway production of Smash, pledges our allegiances to either Team Karen or Team Ivy and makes exactly ONE football reference for good measure.

Fall is here! And you know what that means, time to slightly hate all the friends you hold dear in the pursuit of $400! That’s right y’all it’s The League! The mostly improv story of 30-something friends engrossed in a cutthroat fantasy football league. The critics are calling it Curb but Chicago. With an unreal cast of improvisors, Nick Kroll, Paul Scheer, Jon Lajoie, Katie Aselton, Mark Duplass and Steve Rannazzisi this is the comedy the dudes have been craving.

Come take a lovely journey to our friends at Paddy’s Pub, you know, the hottest gay bar in town! We take you back to the long forgotten time of 2005. A young Rob McElhenney, started shooting a low budget pilot with actor friends Glenn Howerton, Charlie Day, and Kaitlin Olson. The group we’ve come to know and love all these years was born. All the milksteaks, the green men, the Chase Utleys merely a glimmer in their eyes.

Come join us on this trip down memory lane and see how a comedy Juggernaut came to be.

We have a saying here on the island: “leave us a 5-star review!”

Aloha friends! This week we’re taking you to the island of O’ahu for some prime-time soap TV to compliment the Fox smash hit The OC. Does it work? Well… try finding the pilot anywhere other than YouTube and let us know what you think.

Jason Matthews (Kristoffer Polaha) runs the Grand Waimea Hotel and Resort in this prime-time soap. Arriving to shake things up is his ex, Nicole Booth (Brooke Burns), who takes a job as the resort's director of guest relations. Resort owner Vincent Colville (James Remar) keeps an eye on his employees (Jason Momoa and Amanda Righetti) to make sure their past history doesn't affect their work.

We have another saying here on the island… listen to our podcast!

Okay… did we know this show had a great reputation? Sure. Did we know that this show was originally created by Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance? Definitely. Did we forget to tell Max that there was a talking monkey in it? I’m afraid so.

Obviously we’re talking about the Netflix Original series The Umbrella Academy!

Starring Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castaneda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, and Aidan Gallagher as kids born under extremely mysterious circumstances who developed super powers as they aged. Upon the death of their eccentric billionaire adopted father, they now must return to the house that raised them and get along without killing each other.

Join us as The Umbrella Academy saves the world.

IT’S OLYMPIC (errr) BIG GAME FEVER Y’ALL! While you watch our ladies and gents pommel some horses and uneven some bars, let’s half tuck in to the ABC family show Make It Or Break It!

Inspired by the 2006 movie Stick It, MIOBI is the brainchild of showrunner Holly Sorensen who wanted to make a drama centering around “The Rock” training center in Colorado. The show features actors Josie Loren, Ayla Kell, and Cassie Scerbo as the big three gymnasts setting their sights on the gold medal, while newcomer Emily Kmetko represents an unforeseen threat to those dreams. Can they gel as a team or will it tear them apart?

We also get a television return of former TVPL champion Peri Gilpin (Frasier). Now that you’ve seen the pilot, will this show make it or break it?
