This week, the boys get together to watch the hundredth episodes of two TV series that were never expected to reach that milestone: Cougar Town and Community.  They discuss how each series avoids the mistake of having the 100th episode be a "theme" episode *cough*Bones*cough*, instead leaning into the strengths of their casts.  In particular, they talk about how Community's 100th episode marks the strongest of the new season so far.  Additionally, James talks about seeing the Studio Ghibli documentary The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness and seeing a local indie wrestling show.

Finally, they discuss comics from the last week, including Giant Days #1, Batgirl #40, Superman #39, Frankenstein Underground #1 and The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #3.

oys talk about two TV premieres that they ended up being more excited about than they thought they would: the premiere of iZombie, based on the Vertigo comic, and the return of Community for its sixth season on Yahoo.  In both cases, modest expectations were met by an impressed response.  James also saw Song of the Sea, the latest animated feature from Tomm Moore, and it was unsurprisingly solid.

After this, the boys discuss comics they enjoyed from the last week, including Howard the Duck #1, Spider-Gwen #2, Southern Cross #1, Casanova: Acedia #2 and Thor #6.  They also shoot themselves in the foot regarding a local media award.

This week, the boys find their efforts to watch the first episode of the Powers TV adaptation blocked by a US-only release, so instead they just talk about other TV instead.  First, they talk about Netflix's new series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, its message of positivity and how it showcases the talents of Jane Krakowski.  Next, they discuss the latest episode of Gravity Falls, "Not What He Seems," and fall over themselves complimenting how the show manages to move forward its overall narrative while still keeping a tight focus on characters and their relationships.

Finally, they talk about new comics they enjoyed, such as All New Hawkeye #1, Spider-Woman #5, Princess Leia #1 and Descender #1, as well as navigating Rat Queens #9, a very good comic that's still co-owned by an abuser, even if he's no longer drawing it.

This week, the boys discuss James' descent into even-bigger-nerddom, as he played his first game of Dungeons & Dragons and... liked it?  Oh, lord.  Well, we're sure the shiny pink dice and his matching fingernails & ensemble helped.  Either way, it was fun and he will do it again!  They also discuss the first two episodes of Phil Lord and Chris Miller's new TV series, The Last Man on Earth, which is both funny and deeply, troublingly anxiety-inducing.

Next, the boys discussed a lot of the last week's comics, such as Spider-Gwen #1, Gotham Academy #5, Darededevil #13, Curb Stomp #1, Thor Annual #1 (featuring the writing debut of CM Punk!) and Men of Wrath #5.  Also, James tries to convince Brandon to help staff the store by letting some dudes lay low for a while, which personally, I feel is super helpful.
