I think it’s safe to say, based on the tone of the discussion, this is the episode everyone has been waiting for. CONTINUITY BABY! I suppose it could have been disappointing if you were holding out hope for a live-action episode starring Xtopher Lloyd, but it answers a lot of questions that we’ve had for seasons now and sets up some truly interesting possibilities for the future of Rick and Morty. Check out the podcast to hear us discuss them.
This is definitely the first part of a two-part season finale, but it sneaks up on you thanks to a pretty engaging plot involving Rick replacing Morty with a couple of crows.

The Walking Dead fares a little better this week as everybody runs from the reapers and we get a small morsel of horse hope.
Thanks to Brian, we’ve got another commission this week. It’s the first and last episodes of Invincible season 1. You might not expect a bookended sampling of a series to work very well, but aside from not knowing a few of the side characters, I apparently missed out on almost nothing by skipping the other 6 episodes.

The working title for this episode was allegedly “Garbage In, Garbage Out”, which might have been more suitable given what we thought of the episode. There are a few redeeming qualities, but they sorta painted themselves into a corner last week, then doubled down with a few unforced errors. Join us for the podcast to…
It’s our first feedback episode of the season and we’re ready to talk about what turned out to be a pretty unpopular episode among our audience. Join us for the podcast to hear what they had to say.
Here it is. The final season! AMC is finally shooting The Walking Dead in the head to put it down once and for all. The only question is, will it go out with a violent gory splash and a mouthful of flesh, or will it lay down in the road and wither into a desiccated pile of bones? Check out the podcast to find out what kind of start it got off to.
This is the one we’ve been waiting for. Carol sends Negan on a spirit quest to come to terms with all the things he’s done is his past, from the horrific to the just plain cowardly. Was it worth the wait? Join us for the podcast to find out what we thought.
Here’s the continuity you’ve been looking for. We finally deal with the tragedy of Rick’s artificially preserved best friend, Birdperson in an episode loosely based on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Check out the podcast to hear us hypothesize about the canon implications of this episode, among other things, and join us back here during the week of September 5th for the back-to-back airing of the final two season 5 episodes.
