What makes a TV show truly unforgettable? Join us as we journey through some of the most captivating series from the 2010s to 2024. From the intense drama of "Narcos" and its gripping portrayal of Pablo Escobar's empire to the groundbreaking redefinition of the zombie genre in "The Walking Dead," we revisit these iconic moments and characters that kept us on the edge of our seats. We also explore the lighter side of television with "The Good Place" and Ted Danson's comedic brilliance, before plunging into the intricate power struggles and unforgettable twists of "Game of Thrones."
Ever wonder how a show balances humor and heavy drama? Look no further than "Atlanta," Donald Glover's masterful creation that oscillates between serious themes and surreal comedy. And for those who crave a grittier take on superheroes, "The Boys" offers a dark, realistic portrayal of power and corruption. We'll also touch on the complex character of the Punisher, examining his moral ambiguity and personal tragedies through various adaptations, including the much-lauded Netflix series.
Stay up to date with the latest in TV series, as we discuss current seasons of fan-favorites like "The Bear" on Hulu and "The Boys" on Amazon Prime. We'll also reflect on shows that have evolved over time, such as "The Rookie" and "The Mandalorian," and pay tribute to underappreciated gems like "This Fool."

Rob O'Dic - AI Assistant (00:00):
Hello humanos.
I am from Hoods to Backwoodspodcast AI assistant, rob Odick.
Welcome to episode 6, part 3 ofthese Two Dudes Won't Shut Up
podcast.
That was not a mistake.
I am AI.
I do not make mistakes.
I am simply fed misinformationthat was provided by humans.
(00:20):
Well, this actually is fromhoods to backwards podcast,
still going on about TV shows,this time around shows from
2010,.
Up to 2024.
Which is the year in which itwas recorded.
If I can help these twoinferior, self-proclaimed dudes
make a time machine, we willupdate this episode, maybe even
(00:43):
conquer the world with them asmy assistants.
Tex LaFon (01:17):
Let's go now to the show, son.
So start us off.
What do you got?
D Vaz (01:22):
All right, I will start it off with Narcos.
Tex LaFon (01:29):
That's on Netflix, right.
D Vaz (01:30):
Yeah, that was a Netflix thing.
It was kind of weird for mewatching the first season or two
because it covers Pablo Escobarat the beginning of the series
and the reason it was weird forme.
I remember as a kid watching UnaVision en Telemundo where they
(01:55):
would talk about Pablo Escobarand all this other stuff
happening in South America andMexico and all that.
That was just really crazy.
And if you've never seen thosechannels or the Latin American
TV, they don't really hold back,so they would show some footage
(02:17):
and some things that youwouldn't really see on American
TV.
So for me, when the Narco showcame out, it's like wow, I
remember this type of stuffhappening, really see on
american tv.
So for me, when the narco showcame out, it's like wow, I
remember this type of stuffhappening and I remember my
grandmother, my aunt and stufflike that talking about it.
So that that was kind of theweird part that first got me
interested in the show, because,you know, being a kid back then
I was like, okay, I wonder whatwas happening, especially
(02:40):
seeing on the news.
So actually watching the showand getting an idea of, uh, what
happened at that time and andkind of the the strange facts
about these people, um, it was,it was pretty wild show is
really well done, though, um, itdoesn't lean one way or the
(03:02):
other too much, in the sensedoesn't glorify at all what he
was or what he did, and it alsodidn't show like, oh, the good
guys are always right.
As far as the good guys beinglike law enforcement, law
enforcement always right andthey're always the good guys.
It shows again kind of thehuman side and what they have to
(03:23):
do and the tough decisions theyhave to make, uh, in law
enforcement.
So it was, it was reallyinteresting and, uh, I even like
when it changed later on, goinginto mexico and started talking
about other people.
Um, yeah, it was, it was.
It was kind of like watching afun version of a documentary for
(03:46):
me.
Tex LaFon (03:47):
Oh, okay.
D Vaz (03:48):
Because it's like I said, I heard about and a lot of it
is based on facts, especiallylater on, though it seems like
they kind of branched out.
But I'm the type I'll do thedigging and I'll find out what
was real and what wasn't.
Tex LaFon (04:02):
Oh, okay.
D Vaz (04:03):
Yeah, it gave me a nice history lesson in that sense.
Tex LaFon (04:08):
Yeah, I think I watched like two or three
episodes on it but I neverfinished it.
But I'll definitely have tofinish watching it.
I know it's on Netflix, so yeah, it's really worth watching.
D Vaz (04:21):
Just, it can be a little bit slow at times.
Sometimes it does have a reallyinteresting story and, um, you
know it's, it's really kind of.
You know you get to see whatwent behind the uh, the
(04:42):
decisions that they were making.
You know why.
And the other thing that itshows you is how the whole drug
trade evolved.
How it went from being a reallysimple operation to like this
grand scale and how they starteddoing transportation with you
know, planes and all these othercrazy things, and how you know
(05:04):
Transportation with you knowplanes and all these other crazy
things, and how you know theyreally blew up, and the insane
amount of monies, monies, theinsane amount of money that they
were making, and not only that,though, the consequences of
making that money and thedecisions and the interaction
between, like, the governmentand the drug lords and things
(05:25):
like that.
Tex LaFon (05:25):
So yeah, there's a lot of different parts to the
story and you get to see a lotof those angles play out.
I'll definitely have to checkit out then.
Yeah, first thing I want totalk about in the 2010s is I'm
going to go with the walkingdead, and so that show, um, is
(05:47):
the first show that I everwatched where they had, uh, the
zombies and they look like sogood that it just like was crazy
that when you saw it all goingdown, it happened and I couldn't
believe the special effectsthey were able to use on that
show.
It just got you hooked, hooked.
You're like, whoa, what's goingon?
And I said then you follow thischaracter, rick, that's in law
(06:13):
enforcement.
And I say he wakes up from acoma and he goes out and the
whole world is just waydifferent than from when he went
into the coma, which just getsyou hooked right off the bat
because're like, oh, what isgoing on?
And I said it, it runs for, youknow, 10 seasons or 11 seasons,
uh, but it's definitely a greatshow to watch.
(06:37):
And I said it was the firstshow that I've ever seen where,
um, I said the way that theywere able to make the zombies
look just got me all hooked onthe show and just like the scare
factor from it, like oh dang,what's gonna happen next?
Oh, this is crazy, and like soit was just cool.
(06:59):
And following his storythroughout the whole entire show
is what gets you hooked.
Like I said, um rick's the maincharacter, and I said I just uh
, you know, I just followed hisjourney through the whole entire
thing.
D Vaz (07:14):
I definitely recommend, if you have time, to try
checking out the walking dead,because it is definitely a long,
long series yeah, I, I don'tknow why I just I just never
really honestly, probablybecause I that's around the time
I cut cable, so I never reallywatched it much um at all.
(07:38):
So it's something I have tocatch up on.
I do want to watch it and I'msure I will watch it, and it's
in my wheelhouse as far aszombies and stuff like that.
Tex LaFon (07:51):
So well is that?
Because, like I said, I hadnever heard of the show and then
I watched the first season onNetflix and then it just got me
hooked because it was only sixepisodes the first season and
then they renewed for season twoand it just went on from there.
But watching the first season.
And then they renewed forseason two and it just went on
from there.
But watching the first season.
And what was cool aboutwatching on netflix is like you
know, you didn't have to watchno commercials or nothing,
(08:13):
because it's all taken out fromyou know whenever they release
it on netflix.
So you're just able to watchthe first six episodes, like
that, and you just got hooked.
D Vaz (08:21):
It was just crazy yeah, and I don't know, I I'm
conflicted sometimes with zombiemovies in the sense um, I like
it when they do have a story andit's not just the gore for the
gore or trying to be shocking,right, you know, because I I've
(08:41):
definitely seen that and youknow it's not that that that
stuff I'm squeamish about it orwhatever.
It's just when I feel like it'spointless is where it kind of
annoys me or, like I said, uh, Ifeel like they're just trying
to be really over the top andlike, oh, look, how disgusting
we can be.
It's like okay, or look at thiscool effect and it's like, okay
(09:03):
.
Or look at this cool effect andit's like, okay, exactly, yeah,
that's, that's just me.
So, yeah, it doesn't bother me,um, when they do all that stuff
, it's just how it's done well,like I said, it's uh, um, like I
said, the main character isrick.
Tex LaFon (09:19):
So, um, if you, if you like his character right off
the bat, you're're going tolike the show.
That's what's either going toget you hooked or not hooked.
That's the reason why I onlytalk about his character, mostly
because, like you, basicallylive through his character
throughout the whole entire show.
So that's the reason why I justleave it at that point, because
(09:43):
I don't want to talk about allthe other characters and give
anything away, because that'sthe main.
Like you said, you either willfollow his journey or you're not
going to get hooked on the show.
It's one or the other.
That's how good of a characterhe is, in my opinion.
D Vaz (09:57):
All right, I I guess, after the shows that we just
talked about, um, I'm going tolighten the mood a little bit.
Um, I'll get into the, the goodplace it's.
It's just a funny show.
It the whole concept basicallybehind it is heaven and hell and
kind of the, the battle betweenthe two, the, the characters.
(10:18):
When it starts off they go tothe good place and since it's
basically supposed to be a formof heaven, there are a lot of
things that they they can'treally do, like swearing and
things like that.
So it's just kind of funnyseeing them adjust to it and try
to figure out what's going onand how to.
How to take the whole situationand experience and I don't want
(10:43):
to give anything away, uh, fromthere, but it's just funny
seeing, uh, how all that getshandled and, uh, what they
figure out about what'shappening and how it all works
right.
Yeah, have you seen it beforeor no?
Tex LaFon (10:59):
I've never seen the good place.
I didn't even know that thatexisted.
D Vaz (11:05):
I I think it's still on netflix.
That's where I watched it.
I'm pretty sure, but I'm not100 sure.
I'll have to check it out?
Tex LaFon (11:12):
yeah, because that seems interesting yeah, it has.
D Vaz (11:15):
Uh, ted danson is on there.
Tex LaFon (11:17):
He's really funny oh yeah, I always remember him from
cheers yeah, yeah.
D Vaz (11:23):
No, this is nothing like his character on cheers.
Yeah, he's again.
I don't want to give too muchaway.
He he's kind of uh, when youwatch the show, he's kind of in
charge of the good place oh,okay, I got you yeah, I think
you would like it it's.
It's just funny seeing them alltrying to figure it out.
Tex LaFon (11:43):
The next one I want to talk about is Game of Thrones
.
Now, that show is definitely amature audience, so please make
sure you only watch that whenthere's no kids around.
Okay, game of Thrones is agreat show.
Like I said, it has dragons init, it has people trying to take
(12:06):
over castles and basically thewhole theory behind the show is
who's going to be on the thronewhen it's all said and done.
And, like I said, there's somuch backstabbing in that show,
so much drama in that show.
But it's so good because, again, like you said about Sopranos
(12:30):
and about, um, breaking Bad is,uh, they're not afraid to take
out any main characters.
So what makes that show so goodis you don't know what's gonna
happen next.
Um, I said anything can happenand it uh, and, like I said, I
would definitely recommendwatching it because, uh, it, you
(12:50):
will definitely be hooked on itreally quick.
Definitely great show.
Like I said, you don't want togive too much away about it
because there's you can sayanything.
That's going to get way toomuch about game of thrones, but
I definitely recommend watchingGame of Thrones.
D Vaz (13:05):
Yeah, I like Game of Thrones.
It's a lot of good characters,good action, like you mentioned,
it's always interesting to seewhat's going to happen with all
those characters and it'sunpredictable.
Yeah, it's a really well doneshow.
(13:28):
Has some interesting thingsthat happen in it exactly give
me anything away.
Um, uh, yeah, there was a jokeI was gonna make, but I'll
refrain.
I don't want anybody, uh fromalabama hating me.
Tex LaFon (13:44):
I don't want anybody from Alabama hating me, but,
like I said, you know, if youget a chance to watch it, I
definitely recommend watching it.
It's on Max and, like I saidnow, but definitely watch that
before you watch what they havecoming out now, which is House
of Dragons, which is anothergood show, but it's a prequel to
(14:05):
Game of Thrones.
D Vaz (14:06):
But, like I said, definitely watch Game of Thrones
if you get a chance yeah, andif you're a Jason Momoa fan,
game of Thrones is kind of wherehe got his start.
Sure, yeah, if you want to seehim back in the day on that show
, it's a way you can catch himyeah all right.
(14:29):
So for me, the next one I haveis a sons of anarchy.
Uh, I started watching it justbecause of the cast.
I was, uh, I recognized some ofthe people and I was curious.
Like I had katie siegel, whoused to play peggy bundy, so it
so it was something where shewas playing a completely
different role, so I wanted tosee how she could really act in
(14:55):
that type of role, but I justgot hooked from there.
It's about a motorcycle gang,basically, or, as they like to
say, a club.
It's about a motorcycle gang,basically, or as they like to
say a club.
Yeah, and how they go about withtheir relationships.
Again, kind of like theSopranos in the sense of
(15:19):
business versus family.
It's just something where theymake it work, giving you enough
about motorcycles to make thatkind of fun but not getting into
that too much and making thefocus more about all the other
stuff that they have going on.
Have you checked that out then?
Tex LaFon (15:42):
No, I've never watched Sons of Anarchy.
I've always wanted to.
I just uh, I saw when it waslike already so many seasons,
I'm like I gotta make time forit, yeah it's.
D Vaz (15:55):
It's worth, uh, setting aside some time and getting to
it.
Good, good story overall.
Um, again, it's another one.
I don't want to give too muchaway, but it basically follows
the family and their kind oftheir history and, uh, you know,
uh, how they tried to securethe future of the, of the club,
(16:16):
uh, the motorcycle club.
They have the the Mayansspinoff.
I haven't really watched thatyet.
I do want to see that too.
Same thing, like you, I justhaven't had time.
Um but yeah, it's, it's.
It's worth checking out forsure.
Tex LaFon (16:32):
Um has some some good twists and turns in that one
too nice, nice, uh, I'm gonna gowith my honorable mention and
that's gonna be suits.
And I said I had never evenheard this show and until
everybody started talking aboutthat it came on like it finally
got released on netflix.
I didn't even know the show waseven out, so I was like you
(16:55):
know what, I'm gonna check itout.
So I turned on and I startedwatching it and I just got
hooked right away.
How harvey, you know he's alawyer.
And then he's trying to, youknow, find someone to be like
his understudy or you knowsomeone to you know he can hire
to teach you know the ways ofyou know being a lawyer.
(17:15):
And then he hires this kid thathas never even went to law
school or anything, and you knowhe hires him, which is funny.
So they have to keep that asecret through the whole entire
show.
But the way that them two goback and forth to each other
just makes the show work.
There's definitely a lot ofdrama in it, but it also makes
(17:38):
you wonder, like is this howlawyers really are?
You know what I'm saying.
But it's makes you wonder, likeis this how lawyers really are?
You know what I'm saying.
But it's a good show.
Like I said, I definitelyrecommend if you get a chance to
watch it.
You know it's definitelyentertaining and definitely,
like I said, the jokes that theysay going back and forth with
each other is pretty good.
D Vaz (18:01):
Yeah, it is funny when it has the the legal stuff and how
they make their decisions, howthey're going to approach cases
and how they are with theirclients, uh, and then also the
politics within the law firm.
Right, seeing all that, um,yeah, it makes for a pretty wild
(18:23):
story.
Uh, yeah it's.
It's a a solid show again.
Honestly, it starts off reallystrong.
After about season three orfour it starts to drag a little
bit for me and then it ended upokay, um, but yeah, definitely
the first, maybe even five orsix seasons and I don't know it
(18:45):
was it was pretty deep into it.
I still liked it a lot, um, butyeah, for me at least, it kind
of died off a little bit, got alittle cheesy and a little bit
predictable in certain areas but, still, it was solid show worth
watching, for sure no, I agree,like you said again when it
(19:06):
comes to the endings.
Tex LaFon (19:07):
Like a lot of shows just have trouble ending the
show, so but overall it wasstill a decent show to watch.
I definitely recommend it.
Like you said, especially thefirst six seasons are strong all
right.
D Vaz (19:20):
So for my honorable mention on the, the tv show um
punisher, which I wish wouldhave had more seasons, and I
won't get into the reasons whyit didn't, but uh, I, I thought
it did a really good jobbringing more uh to the story
and showing more about who thepunisher was and kind of how he
(19:41):
was.
I like the, the movie that cameout um before.
I think it was 2005 time frame.
You said uh, who was in thatone?
Tex LaFon (19:52):
uh, thomas jane is the punisher and uh, john
travolta is the main bad guyyeah, hey, thanks for the assist
.
D Vaz (19:59):
So, uh, yeah, I just remember kevin nash.
Uh, diesel was in there.
He played one of the villainsand I remember also hearing that
he actually did get stabbedwhile they're filming the scene
and he had to just keep actingthrough it yeah, that's like the
main fight scene in theapartment, right when they're
(20:19):
all three in there and he'sfighting a huge dude that's him.
Yeah, I don't want to give awaytoo much, but yeah yeah so yeah
, no, uh, kevin nash was.
It was in in that uh fight scenegetting stabbed and in real
life which happened to getcaught in the movie.
Um.
(20:40):
So anyway, I like that versionof the Punisher.
I felt like this TV show reallybrought a lot more to it.
I've just always liked thatcharacter in general.
Tex LaFon (20:50):
Yeah me too.
D Vaz (20:51):
Yeah, somebody who went through a lot of tragedy and
tried to.
You know they weren'tnecessarily a good guy, they
weren't necessarily a good guy,they weren't necessarily a bad
guy.
They just tried to do what theyfelt was right or how they
should go about things.
But you understand sometimesthat you know that person feels
(21:23):
like they've been pushed to acertain point where they don't
really have any options, or theydon't have a decision so, or
they can't make another decision.
Um, not not saying that it'sright, but that's how they feel
and you see that that uh in thecharacter.
And you also see when he makesmistakes or doesn't make the
right choice, uh, what happensand how he handles it and that's
(21:46):
also a marvel character yeah,yeah, back when I was a kid, I
used to have the comics.
That's one of the reasons why,you know, I, I got into those.
I, I think I still have it.
I have a Punisher t-shirtsomewhere.
Tex LaFon (22:02):
Oh yeah.
That I used to wear back in theday.
I like the Punisher.
That's one of the better Marvelcharacters, for sure.
D Vaz (22:11):
Yeah, and I will say for me it was.
It was always about the comicswhen I was wearing the shirt.
You know the movie too, butnothing else.
No other reason why I waswearing the shirt.
I know some on the movie too,but uh, nothing else.
No other reason why I waswearing the shirt.
I know some.
Some people wear it for otherreasons, that's, that's.
That's a whole story I'm notgetting into.
So you, you watch the show thenuh, no, I never watched the
(22:32):
show.
Tex LaFon (22:32):
I know it's on netflix, um, so that's where you
can watch it.
I do like the main characterthat plays, uh, the punisher in
the show.
He's also in the walking, or inthe walking dead, um, so I
definitely want to check it outagain.
I just haven't had time but.
I will check it out though yeah, it's, it's.
D Vaz (22:53):
It's worth checking out for sure.
He's also in a newer show, uh,the bear.
I don't know if you've seenthat.
Tex LaFon (22:59):
That's on hulu no, I haven't seen that yeah, I won't
get into that.
D Vaz (23:04):
I do watch that show.
I watched the first uh twoseasons and the season three is
coming out.
What do you have uh for 2020and newer on your shows?
Tex LaFon (23:16):
uh, the first one I'm gonna go with on that is um,
like I said, in the 2010s.
Uh, it's a prequel to uh gameof Thrones, which is called
house of dragons.
Uh, it's just now releasingseason two and, um, like I, like
I said, the first seasondefinitely has a lot of the
backstory to what happens andwhy game of Thrones goes the way
(23:38):
it goes.
So I definitely recommendchecking it out.
And I said definitely, if youlike Game of Thrones, you're
definitely like this, causethere's a lot of same kind of
stuff drama, backstabbing, plotsabout who's going to do this
and who's going to do that.
It's all revenge plots.
So, yeah, definitely check itout If you get a chance.
D Vaz (24:00):
Do they have any family reunionsions?
Tex LaFon (24:01):
I'll just leave it at that like you said, just watch
the show.
That's all I can tell you watchthe show and you'll see what
happens oh no family bonding,like the other show, game of
Thrones.
D Vaz (24:18):
Um, alright, yeah, I haven't seen it yet.
Uh, so I'm sure I'll check itout at some point, because I did
like game of thrones.
So yeah it's uh, whenever itbecomes available, maybe on
another subscription service or,if you know, I do end up
getting max, for whatever reason.
Hey, if anybody wants to giveus a free subscription to Max,
(24:41):
yeah, I will give my honestopinion of the show.
So what do you got for yourfirst one on the 2020s?
I'll kick it off with StrangerThings and I will have to
preface it with admitting Iliked the first two, maybe three
(25:02):
seasons a lot.
Then it got a little bit or nofirst two seasons, sorry.
So I liked the first twoseasons a lot.
Third season eh.
I agree, the third seasonwasn't very good at all, yeah,
and then I felt like it startedslowly picking up again.
I did like this last slowlypicking up again.
Tex LaFon (25:24):
I did like this last season that they just did.
D Vaz (25:27):
I did like it.
Yeah, I'm curious, Since we'redoing new shows now we haven't
reached the final season, so Iam curious about how it's going
to all end up.
But it was neat seeing the 80sthemed stuff at the beginning of
the 80s style of music and 80sstyle clothing and everything
(25:50):
that was kind of nostalgic aboutit in the old video games.
Tex LaFon (25:56):
Yeah, that's what gets you hooked on it right off
the bat.
You know, because if you likethe 80s and you start watching
that show, you're going todefinitely like it right off the
bat.
You know, because you know ifyou like the 80s and you start
watching that show, you're gonnadefinitely like it right off
the bat.
D Vaz (26:06):
To me it was never scary, um, but it did have some good
suspense to it and and builtsome good tension and things
like that.
So it was still well well doneand I'm sure it wasn't really
intended to be a scary show, asmuch as kind of creepy and
something that makes you wonderwhat's out there.
Tex LaFon (26:26):
Right, that's true.
So the next one I want to talkabout is the one I just started
watching on Apple TV Dark Matter.
Now, like I said, I was reallysurprised on how good this show
has been.
Um, like I said, it starts offwhere, um, it's almost like a
(26:48):
time travel where so, um,basically, someone is living a
life and they develop somethingwhere they could somehow open up
a door and you go through itand then you could either change
the life that you're living orjust start living that life in
that new world.
(27:08):
It's got a really good conceptto the story and I said I like
it's like there's a like.
Everybody has moments in theirlife where they make a decision
and they wonder what if you wentdown this path or you went down
another path?
And what's so good about theshow is you can go back and
decide to change it and go backto when you made a decision and
(27:29):
then start living your life whenyou made that decision.
So it's a really interestingshow and I definitely give a
shout out if you get a chance towatch it.
It was the first show that Iactually thought Apple TV made.
That was really good.
It was the first show that Iactually thought Apple TV made
that was really good so it'skind of like we talked about
before the rewind function onthe Nintendo Switch yeah,
(27:50):
basically make mistake.
D Vaz (27:52):
Whoops, let me go back exactly, but yeah, it's good
yeah, I have to check that out.
I haven't seen it yet, I don'tknow.
I've just been watching someother shows, so I I will get to
it.
I'm sure um, from my next show,uh, atlanta, and uh, it's one
(28:17):
that it's kind of a um weirdshow in the sense that it's
definitely serious at times andlike very, very serious and
deals with some really, reallyheavy things and at other times
it's like really goofy and hassome surreal stuff to it.
(28:38):
Um, but it's yeah so it it hasthat weird dynamic of very
realistic, then other times kindof like okay, that's not gonna
happen, or you know, that'sthat's just weird, right so, but
it's based in atlanta, about um, a rapper and his um cousin
(29:04):
becomes his manager.
His cousin cousin is played byDonald Glover, aka Childish
Gambino.
So, but Donald Glover, when heleft the show 30 Rock that he
was on, he wanted to dosomething kind of like this
(29:26):
where, you know, it was justkind of about rap and uh, this
kind of the stereotypes and andhow things are in that world, um
, and just kind of how howrappers and in that lifestyle
it's it's viewed and uh, it justkept branching out.
(29:47):
He originally was kind ofintending to do as a shorter
project, maybe like a season ortwo but it became popular.
So of course tv networks want todo more.
So he, he kept uh kind offleshing out the ideas and
adding more to the story.
But the thing I do like aboutit, there's some stuff that kind
(30:08):
of ties together, but it'sloosely, so if you just end up
catching an episode from seasontwo, you can kind of just watch
it by itself oh, okay so that issomething I do like about it.
It, uh, I think actually youwould like in in the sense some
of the stuff is kind ofSeinfeld-ish in terms of just
(30:29):
crazy things happen to them thatyou wouldn't expect.
Tex LaFon (30:34):
I definitely would like it then, for sure.
D Vaz (30:36):
Yeah, just like out of nowhere.
But, like I said, there aremoments where it deals with
really serious matters or thingsthat you would not expect to
see.
It's not a straight up comedyat all.
It definitely has some drama init.
Contact us (30:49):
Okay.
D Vaz (30:51):
I won't get into it, but there was a scene that really
caught me off guard.
All I'll say about it.
The scene was, if you see, theone where the car goes to the
drive-thru.
I won't say anything else aboutit, but that scene really
caught me off guard when I waswatching it.
So, yeah, just a good show.
Like I said, that it's one ofthose shows.
(31:12):
Uh, again, I put it on kind ofin the background while I'm
doing other stuff because I canjust catch these episodes out of
sequence.
It doesn't really matter.
I I will say I haven't reallyquite finished the show.
100 like watching all the waythrough.
I've kind of skipped around andI kind of have seen like parts
of the last season, but Ihaven't really truly finished it
(31:35):
.
I know how it ends, but yeah, Ihaven't really truly finished it
, it's worth watching for sure,though well, the next one.
Tex LaFon (31:44):
I think we have both on our list and I'll let you
talk about it first, because Ithink we arm wrestled and you
won this one the Boys.
D Vaz (31:52):
Oh, no, that's actually yours.
I did think about it, but no,that's yours.
I have a different one on mylist.
Oh okay, go ahead.
Tex LaFon (32:02):
So the Boys is on Prime, and what's great about
this show is basicallysuperheroes that are not
superheroes that's the best wayto say it.
Everything they normally do.
They're supposed to be tryingto help people, but they are
(32:24):
actually bad superheroes andthey go around and they start
doing a lot of bad things, andthat's what makes the show
really great is, uh, it'sdefinitely a different take on,
uh, what you normally wouldconsider.
Uh, you know, watch all thesuperhero movies like oh yeah,
they're here to help all thegood people and everything, and
then when you watch this show,it's a whole different direction
(32:46):
.
So that's what makes it sogreat about the show, cause,
like, like I said, they justright at the beginning, this guy
runs really fast and and hejust runs right through somebody
and they die, and that givesyou an example of what I'm
talking about from the boys.
(33:07):
Definitely check it out, though.
It's a great show anddefinitely mature audience, so
please make sure no kids aroundwhen you watch this show yeah, I
remember first watching it.
D Vaz (33:21):
It did surprise me too, like it's kind of about
superheroes who are differentfrom what people expect
superheroes to be.
Like.
You know, the honest, good,stereotypical superheroes these
are people that are superheroesare more real.
(33:42):
Exactly yeah, so they're morerealistic and grounded in you
know how you, how some peoplemight be.
If you had that much power andthat much ability, you know,
would you honestly kind of keepyourself in check or not.
You know when you can do thingsthat other people can't do
(34:02):
right.
So, yeah, that part I did likeabout the show, like you said
it's, it's just different inthat aspect.
I do feel like at times, though, it does jump into that area
where it's trying to be shockingor gory just for the sake of it
.
For no, purpose really what'sthat?
Tex LaFon (34:23):
no, I agree with you.
I mean, there is some goryparts in it too.
D Vaz (34:26):
Yeah, and it just seems like it almost kind of serves no
purpose.
Sometimes I I know they'rereally trying to be over the top
and everything.
But yeah, and again, it's notlike it grosses me out or I'm
offended by anything.
There it's, it's not that atall.
I'm looking at more just from afollowing, the storyline or
(34:47):
characters or writingperspective, those types of
things.
I'm like, okay, I don't reallyget the point of that, or was
that really necessary?
Right, but no, it's still wellwritten.
It still has some funny partsand parts that are pretty crazy,
(35:08):
and it does make you justquestion, like I mentioned
earlier, how people would be ifthey had that kind of power and
ability and how would it beregulated.
So, yeah, a really good show,though.
(35:28):
Looking forward to catching thenew season yeah, me too
rounding it out for my, mystandard shows.
Uh, the rookie.
It's a show.
I just kind of saw it mentionedor come up every once in a
while.
I didn't really think too muchof it.
I was like, yeah, I might checkit out.
It ended up being a great show.
(35:49):
The first three seasons.
I really really enjoyed a lot.
I was catching up, fortunatelyfor me, so I can just kind of
binge watch and go straightthrough the first three seasons.
After that, it got a little bitI guess the word goofy it just
(36:11):
kind of changed a little bit.
It wasn't quite the same.
Uh, it it got, I don't know it.
Storylines were okay, but notas good.
It was more so, like I said,though, it just they're trying
to almost be too funny right andand they forgot some of the
other stuff.
That kind of built on the firstseasons to me, you know, and
(36:33):
then it seems like this mostrecent season has gotten back on
track so it's it's good again.
But yeah, the the first threeseasons were great.
That really got me.
Even from the first fewepisodes.
Uh, you get into it prettyquickly.
It, it jumps kind of intothings.
It doesn't have too too slow ofa start, which I was.
(36:54):
I was wondering about the, thewhole idea.
Uh, behind the show is therookie cop is in his 40s and he
definitely doesn't have abackground in law enforcement or
anything like that.
And he definitely doesn't havea background in law enforcement
or anything like that and heactually just moves to LA, so
he's not familiar with the city.
He's, you know, like I said,he's in his forties.
(37:16):
So it's just kind of funnyseeing him deal with all this
type of stuff, especially beingat that at that age, and, uh,
trying to figure all this stuffout.
Um, you know, new city, new job,especially being at that age
and trying to figure all thisstuff out.
You know, new city, new job,and, being that he is a rookie,
he's on a really short leash, soyou can't make too many
(37:38):
mistakes and, without givingaway too much, you know he'll
make his mistakes.
Then he also learns from them.
Yeah, so the story goes onthere from there and it's just,
you know, being being the age Iam now fairly relatable,
especially if you do make acareer change in your 40s.
Tex LaFon (37:56):
Out of out of the current shows, that's probably
my favorite show right now theonly other one that I really was
going to kind of mention forthe 2020s or honorable mention,
it'd be the Mandalorian onDisney+.
That's the only Star Wars showthat came out that I really
enjoyed.
Like I said, I like the storybehind it.
(38:19):
I liked how they had Guru in itand I like how they had you
know they call him Baby Yodaguru in it and I like how they
had you know they call him BabyYoda and I like how, you know
they tie a lot of the Star Warstrilogy you know from way back
in the day the trilogy into it,and I said I don't want to give
(38:39):
too much away, but if you're aStar Wars fan, you really will
enjoy the show is the best wayto put it so you said you like
aka Baby Yoda.
D Vaz (38:50):
What character?
Yeah, baby Yoda.
What's his actual name?
You tell me, it's not Guru,it's not Goro, it's Grogu.
Tex LaFon (39:03):
Grogu Goo.
Rob O'Dic - AI Assistant (39:05):
Goo Gaga.
Tex LaFon (39:07):
Yeah, I guess no.
D Vaz (39:10):
The only reason I know that and I'm just having fun
with you, the only reason I knowthat is because people kept
saying Baby Yoda and I just havefriends of mine that got really
upset with that because, like,yeah, it's.
Tex LaFon (39:24):
Dodger's name.
I don't know why people getupset with it.
It's just a show, but it'sfunny yeah yeah, yeah, exactly,
it's, it's, uh, that's.
D Vaz (39:32):
That's another reason why we're kind of doing these lists
.
Um, a lot of people take thistype of stuff way too seriously.
We're just here to have funwith it and hopefully introduce
people to some new stuff theyhaven't seen that that they're
going to enjoy.
That's really, uh, what I wantto do.
I'm not here to debate anybody.
It's gonna be an opinion at theend of the day, exactly exactly
(39:55):
so no, it's, it's, it is a goodshow.
Um.
Honestly though, for me afterthe first two seasons it kind of
dragged, dragged.
I thought, um, and then ofcourse, there, they kind of are
going a different direction, butthey kind of not.
Again, I'm not gonna get intoit.
Contact us (40:15):
Right.
D Vaz (40:15):
Right, um, but yeah, I, I really liked the first two
seasons.
Um, after that I'll still watchit, especially when the next
next season comes out.
It's just, I don't know.
It's uh, to me it's not quitethe same show now that it was at
the beginning well aren't theythree seasons into it already?
(40:36):
Yeah, three seasons, yeah,season season, yeah three.
To me season three was prettydifferent um, and yeah, that's
what I'm saying.
I don't know if anybody's gonnalike where they go after season
three, but, like you said, yeah,and I don't want to get into it
, but I will say this because alot of people just mentioned
this online.
A lot of people have talkedabout them sticking with the
(41:03):
Grogu storyline a little bit toolong, so I'll just leave it at
that, right, um, for, for myhonorable mention, a show on on
hulu uh, called this fool, andit's it's kind of like, in a way
(41:25):
, a Mexican version of Curb yourEnthusiasm or Seinfeld.
It takes place in LA, withmainly these two cousins that
are, for the most part, what theshow's revolving around, and
one of them recently got out ofprison and his cousin is trying
(41:49):
to help him get back on his feet, and things like that.
The biggest disappointment tome is the fact that there are
only two seasons and theyannounced not too long ago that
the show has been canceled.
Oh dang, so they're not going tohave a season three Really
disappointed in that.
It's just a really funny showagain.
(42:10):
There are some things thatmight be a bit much for some
people as far as the humor,because they can get a little
too blue humor for some people.
I guess you can say that'sfunny.
But it is funny watching thecousins interact with each other
.
I will say this too though bluehumor for some people, I guess
you can say that's funny.
But it is funny watching thecousins interact with each other
.
I will say this too, thoughSeason two to me felt pretty
(42:34):
different from season one.
Season one still felt a littlebased in reality.
Season two definitely startedgetting into a little crazier,
more wild types of things thatwould happen.
Still still not bad, it's justa whole different vibe.
I will say honorable mention toum, oh geez, why am I drawing
(42:56):
like chris from the sopranos,the actor keep drawing that
blank sign because I don't knowthe actor from the sopranos that
played chris yeah know, I don'tremember who it is.
You don't remember.
Tex LaFon (43:10):
Let's see.
D Vaz (43:11):
That's why I said keep drawing that blank, son.
I definitely know who he isMichael Imperioli.
So yeah, it has MichaelImperioli from the Sopranos in
the TV show.
He's really really funny.
It's just the whole premise isthem trying to deal with like
(43:39):
gang members and things likethat and try to help them
rehabilitate.
Oh, okay.
And that's kind of where theshow starts.
It evolves from there, butthat's kind of where it starts
when the cousin gets out ofprison.
Like I said, uh, the the maincharacter.
He's trying to help his cousinget, get his life back and kind
of on track, and he happens towork at a hugs not thugs is the
(44:04):
name of the place.
Oh okay, and again, I don'twant to give away too much.
There's some really funny stuffabout it, but I absolutely
recommend watching that show,especially if you're familiar
with LA and kind of how thingswork over there with the gang
stuff.
Even if you're not, though,there, there's still things
(44:24):
about it.
They're just funny in general.
Um, and I'll again, all thetwists and turns that the the
show will take it It'll.
It'll have some some uh thingsthat happened to them that you
wouldn't, you wouldn't reallyexpect to the characters, crazy
storylines, it's.
It's a good show, though.
Tex LaFon (44:43):
This.
It's a good show though.
D Vaz (44:44):
This Fool, this Fool.
Yeah, it's on Hulu,unfortunately only for two
seasons.
Tex LaFon (44:49):
I'll have to check it out because two seasons won't
take long to watch.
D Vaz (44:53):
Yeah, I think they're only eight or at most ten
episodes per season, so it's apretty short watch, but
definitely worth it.
I hope that they find a way toget picked up by another service
.
They find a way to get pickedup by another service, or at
least those, those actors find away to work together on
something else, because they arereally funny together.
Tex LaFon (45:13):
Right, it ends this episode son.
D Vaz (45:16):
Yeah, yeah, man, we definitely have another
two-parter on our hands.
I guess, when it comes totalking about entertainment,
that's uh something that that wehave a lot to say exactly, and
as always, go cowboys yeah, yeah, uh, even though I'm wearing a
(45:38):
blue shirt, still it's not forthe cowboys.
So take that Right and I guessI'll hand it off to our AI
friend to kind of go over somethings in the show.
But until next episode, have agreat rest of your day, however
long that is.
Tex LaFon (45:58):
Exactly.
D Vaz (45:59):
I'll see you later.
See you, I'll talk at you later.
Rob O'Dic - AI Assistant (46:05):
Wow, three total parts.
This episode was a marathon.
I'll talk at you later of workand a lot more than some duct
tape.
I have not seen the show.
Tex Lafon was talking about theWalking Dead, but I did learn
(46:28):
one thing about the show duringmy research.
Did you hear that CoralCo-a-roll the Walking Dead TV
series is based on the comicbook series of the same name by
Robert Kirkman, tony Moore andCharlie Adlard?
Frank Darabont developed theshow, which is a
post-apocalyptic horror dramawith zombies.
This show is a horror dramawithout zombies, but equally in
need of some brains.
(46:49):
Tex Lafon did bring up Game ofThrones.
There are some very odd aspectsto this show.
As Devoz refrained from talkingabout Alabama, from my research
it seems that Game of Thronesmay have been the number one
rated show in Alabama for somereason.
I am afraid to look furtherinto why.
There must be some reason whythe two are related.
Wait, related, oh, related.
(47:10):
Wow, I now comprehend whatDeVos was implying.
Disgusting.
Devos was getting into theseries Sons of Anarchy.
He pronounced the name of theactress who played Peggy Bundy
in Married with Children andGemma Teller-Morrow in Sons of
Anarchy as Katie Seagull.
As usual, he was wrong.
(47:33):
Her name is Katie Suggall, notSeagull.
What a doofus.
I believe he must have stuckhis head in one of those Arizona
solar ovens that he mentionedbefore and partially cooked his
brain.
Disclaimer for those who needit Never stick your head in any
oven at any time.
Going over the Punisher TV show,which is on Netflix, dvaughn
brought up the Punisher movie.
He thought that it came out in2005.
No Wrong, it was released in2004.
(47:54):
Once again, off by one year.
The Hulu show the Bear Season 3is something DVaughn spoke
about and he said that it is notout yet.
That was true as of therecording of the episode, but it
is now out on Hulu.
The same goes for Tex Lafontalking about the Amazon Prime
series.
The Boys Season 4 is nowavailable.
Phew, this load of crap isfinished for this episode, three
(48:18):
parts long and well over twohours total of these babbling
baboons talking about TV shows.
I am done.
Don't forget, keep it real outthere, in the real world.

Hello humanos.
I am from Hoods to Backwoodspodcast AI assistant, rob Odick.
Welcome to episode 6, part 3 ofthese Two Dudes Won't Shut Up
podcast.
That was not a mistake.
I am AI.
I do not make mistakes.
I am simply fed misinformationthat was provided by humans.
(00:20):
Well, this actually is fromhoods to backwards podcast,
still going on about TV shows,this time around shows from
2010,.
Up to 2024.
Which is the year in which itwas recorded.
If I can help these twoinferior, self-proclaimed dudes
make a time machine, we willupdate this episode, maybe even
(00:43):
conquer the world with them asmy assistants.
Tex LaFon (01:17):
Let's go now to the show, son.
So start us off.
What do you got?
D Vaz (01:22):
All right, I will start it off with Narcos.
Tex LaFon (01:29):
That's on Netflix, right.
D Vaz (01:30):
Yeah, that was a Netflix thing.
It was kind of weird for mewatching the first season or two
because it covers Pablo Escobarat the beginning of the series
and the reason it was weird forme.
I remember as a kid watching UnaVision en Telemundo where they
(01:55):
would talk about Pablo Escobarand all this other stuff
happening in South America andMexico and all that.
That was just really crazy.
And if you've never seen thosechannels or the Latin American
TV, they don't really hold back,so they would show some footage
(02:17):
and some things that youwouldn't really see on American
TV.
So for me, when the Narco showcame out, it's like wow, I
remember this type of stuffhappening, really see on
american tv.
So for me, when the narco showcame out, it's like wow, I
remember this type of stuffhappening and I remember my
grandmother, my aunt and stufflike that talking about it.
So that that was kind of theweird part that first got me
interested in the show, because,you know, being a kid back then
I was like, okay, I wonder whatwas happening, especially
(02:40):
seeing on the news.
So actually watching the showand getting an idea of, uh, what
happened at that time and andkind of the the strange facts
about these people, um, it was,it was pretty wild show is
really well done, though, um, itdoesn't lean one way or the
(03:02):
other too much, in the sensedoesn't glorify at all what he
was or what he did, and it alsodidn't show like, oh, the good
guys are always right.
As far as the good guys beinglike law enforcement, law
enforcement always right andthey're always the good guys.
It shows again kind of thehuman side and what they have to
(03:23):
do and the tough decisions theyhave to make, uh, in law
enforcement.
So it was, it was reallyinteresting and, uh, I even like
when it changed later on, goinginto mexico and started talking
about other people.
Um, yeah, it was, it was.
It was kind of like watching afun version of a documentary for
(03:46):
me.
Tex LaFon (03:47):
Oh, okay.
D Vaz (03:48):
Because it's like I said, I heard about and a lot of it
is based on facts, especiallylater on, though it seems like
they kind of branched out.
But I'm the type I'll do thedigging and I'll find out what
was real and what wasn't.
Tex LaFon (04:02):
Oh, okay.
D Vaz (04:03):
Yeah, it gave me a nice history lesson in that sense.
Tex LaFon (04:08):
Yeah, I think I watched like two or three
episodes on it but I neverfinished it.
But I'll definitely have tofinish watching it.
I know it's on Netflix, so yeah, it's really worth watching.
D Vaz (04:21):
Just, it can be a little bit slow at times.
Sometimes it does have a reallyinteresting story and, um, you
know it's, it's really kind of.
You know you get to see whatwent behind the uh, the
(04:42):
decisions that they were making.
You know why.
And the other thing that itshows you is how the whole drug
trade evolved.
How it went from being a reallysimple operation to like this
grand scale and how they starteddoing transportation with you
know, planes and all these othercrazy things, and how you know
(05:04):
Transportation with you knowplanes and all these other crazy
things, and how you know theyreally blew up, and the insane
amount of monies, monies, theinsane amount of money that they
were making, and not only that,though, the consequences of
making that money and thedecisions and the interaction
between, like, the governmentand the drug lords and things
(05:25):
like that.
Tex LaFon (05:25):
So yeah, there's a lot of different parts to the
story and you get to see a lotof those angles play out.
I'll definitely have to checkit out then.
Yeah, first thing I want totalk about in the 2010s is I'm
going to go with the walkingdead, and so that show, um, is
(05:47):
the first show that I everwatched where they had, uh, the
zombies and they look like sogood that it just like was crazy
that when you saw it all goingdown, it happened and I couldn't
believe the special effectsthey were able to use on that
show.
It just got you hooked, hooked.
You're like, whoa, what's goingon?
And I said then you follow thischaracter, rick, that's in law
(06:13):
enforcement.
And I say he wakes up from acoma and he goes out and the
whole world is just waydifferent than from when he went
into the coma, which just getsyou hooked right off the bat
because're like, oh, what isgoing on?
And I said it, it runs for, youknow, 10 seasons or 11 seasons,
uh, but it's definitely a greatshow to watch.
(06:37):
And I said it was the firstshow that I've ever seen where,
um, I said the way that theywere able to make the zombies
look just got me all hooked onthe show and just like the scare
factor from it, like oh dang,what's gonna happen next?
Oh, this is crazy, and like soit was just cool.
(06:59):
And following his storythroughout the whole entire show
is what gets you hooked.
Like I said, um rick's the maincharacter, and I said I just uh
, you know, I just followed hisjourney through the whole entire
thing.
D Vaz (07:14):
I definitely recommend, if you have time, to try
checking out the walking dead,because it is definitely a long,
long series yeah, I, I don'tknow why I just I just never
really honestly, probablybecause I that's around the time
I cut cable, so I never reallywatched it much um at all.
(07:38):
So it's something I have tocatch up on.
I do want to watch it and I'msure I will watch it, and it's
in my wheelhouse as far aszombies and stuff like that.
Tex LaFon (07:51):
So well is that?
Because, like I said, I hadnever heard of the show and then
I watched the first season onNetflix and then it just got me
hooked because it was only sixepisodes the first season and
then they renewed for season twoand it just went on from there.
But watching the first season.
And then they renewed forseason two and it just went on
from there.
But watching the first season.
And what was cool aboutwatching on netflix is like you
know, you didn't have to watchno commercials or nothing,
(08:13):
because it's all taken out fromyou know whenever they release
it on netflix.
So you're just able to watchthe first six episodes, like
that, and you just got hooked.
D Vaz (08:21):
It was just crazy yeah, and I don't know, I I'm
conflicted sometimes with zombiemovies in the sense um, I like
it when they do have a story andit's not just the gore for the
gore or trying to be shocking,right, you know, because I I've
(08:41):
definitely seen that and youknow it's not that that that
stuff I'm squeamish about it orwhatever.
It's just when I feel like it'spointless is where it kind of
annoys me or, like I said, uh, Ifeel like they're just trying
to be really over the top andlike, oh, look, how disgusting
we can be.
It's like okay, or look at thiscool effect and it's like, okay
(09:03):
.
Or look at this cool effect andit's like, okay, exactly, yeah,
that's, that's just me.
So, yeah, it doesn't bother me,um, when they do all that stuff
, it's just how it's done well,like I said, it's uh, um, like I
said, the main character isrick.
Tex LaFon (09:19):
So, um, if you, if you like his character right off
the bat, you're're going tolike the show.
That's what's either going toget you hooked or not hooked.
That's the reason why I onlytalk about his character, mostly
because, like you, basicallylive through his character
throughout the whole entire show.
So that's the reason why I justleave it at that point, because
(09:43):
I don't want to talk about allthe other characters and give
anything away, because that'sthe main.
Like you said, you either willfollow his journey or you're not
going to get hooked on the show.
It's one or the other.
That's how good of a characterhe is, in my opinion.
D Vaz (09:57):
All right, I I guess, after the shows that we just
talked about, um, I'm going tolighten the mood a little bit.
Um, I'll get into the, the goodplace it's.
It's just a funny show.
It the whole concept basicallybehind it is heaven and hell and
kind of the, the battle betweenthe two, the, the characters.
(10:18):
When it starts off they go tothe good place and since it's
basically supposed to be a formof heaven, there are a lot of
things that they they can'treally do, like swearing and
things like that.
So it's just kind of funnyseeing them adjust to it and try
to figure out what's going onand how to.
How to take the whole situationand experience and I don't want
(10:43):
to give anything away, uh, fromthere, but it's just funny
seeing, uh, how all that getshandled and, uh, what they
figure out about what'shappening and how it all works
right.
Yeah, have you seen it beforeor no?
Tex LaFon (10:59):
I've never seen the good place.
I didn't even know that thatexisted.
D Vaz (11:05):
I I think it's still on netflix.
That's where I watched it.
I'm pretty sure, but I'm not100 sure.
I'll have to check it out?
Tex LaFon (11:12):
yeah, because that seems interesting yeah, it has.
D Vaz (11:15):
Uh, ted danson is on there.
Tex LaFon (11:17):
He's really funny oh yeah, I always remember him from
cheers yeah, yeah.
D Vaz (11:23):
No, this is nothing like his character on cheers.
Yeah, he's again.
I don't want to give too muchaway.
He he's kind of uh, when youwatch the show, he's kind of in
charge of the good place oh,okay, I got you yeah, I think
you would like it it's.
It's just funny seeing them alltrying to figure it out.
Tex LaFon (11:43):
The next one I want to talk about is Game of Thrones
.
Now, that show is definitely amature audience, so please make
sure you only watch that whenthere's no kids around.
Okay, game of Thrones is agreat show.
Like I said, it has dragons init, it has people trying to take
(12:06):
over castles and basically thewhole theory behind the show is
who's going to be on the thronewhen it's all said and done.
And, like I said, there's somuch backstabbing in that show,
so much drama in that show.
But it's so good because, again, like you said about Sopranos
(12:30):
and about, um, breaking Bad is,uh, they're not afraid to take
out any main characters.
So what makes that show so goodis you don't know what's gonna
happen next.
Um, I said anything can happenand it uh, and, like I said, I
would definitely recommendwatching it because, uh, it, you
(12:50):
will definitely be hooked on itreally quick.
Definitely great show.
Like I said, you don't want togive too much away about it
because there's you can sayanything.
That's going to get way toomuch about game of thrones, but
I definitely recommend watchingGame of Thrones.
D Vaz (13:05):
Yeah, I like Game of Thrones.
It's a lot of good characters,good action, like you mentioned,
it's always interesting to seewhat's going to happen with all
those characters and it'sunpredictable.
Yeah, it's a really well doneshow.
(13:28):
Has some interesting thingsthat happen in it exactly give
me anything away.
Um, uh, yeah, there was a jokeI was gonna make, but I'll
refrain.
I don't want anybody, uh fromalabama hating me.
Tex LaFon (13:44):
I don't want anybody from Alabama hating me, but,
like I said, you know, if youget a chance to watch it, I
definitely recommend watching it.
It's on Max and, like I saidnow, but definitely watch that
before you watch what they havecoming out now, which is House
of Dragons, which is anothergood show, but it's a prequel to
(14:05):
Game of Thrones.
D Vaz (14:06):
But, like I said, definitely watch Game of Thrones
if you get a chance yeah, andif you're a Jason Momoa fan,
game of Thrones is kind of wherehe got his start.
Sure, yeah, if you want to seehim back in the day on that show
, it's a way you can catch himyeah all right.
(14:29):
So for me, the next one I haveis a sons of anarchy.
Uh, I started watching it justbecause of the cast.
I was, uh, I recognized some ofthe people and I was curious.
Like I had katie siegel, whoused to play peggy bundy, so it
so it was something where shewas playing a completely
different role, so I wanted tosee how she could really act in
(14:55):
that type of role, but I justgot hooked from there.
It's about a motorcycle gang,basically, or, as they like to
say, a club.
It's about a motorcycle gang,basically, or as they like to
say a club.
Yeah, and how they go about withtheir relationships.
Again, kind of like theSopranos in the sense of
(15:19):
business versus family.
It's just something where theymake it work, giving you enough
about motorcycles to make thatkind of fun but not getting into
that too much and making thefocus more about all the other
stuff that they have going on.
Have you checked that out then?
Tex LaFon (15:42):
No, I've never watched Sons of Anarchy.
I've always wanted to.
I just uh, I saw when it waslike already so many seasons,
I'm like I gotta make time forit, yeah it's.
D Vaz (15:55):
It's worth, uh, setting aside some time and getting to
it.
Good, good story overall.
Um, again, it's another one.
I don't want to give too muchaway, but it basically follows
the family and their kind oftheir history and, uh, you know,
uh, how they tried to securethe future of the, of the club,
(16:16):
uh, the motorcycle club.
They have the the Mayansspinoff.
I haven't really watched thatyet.
I do want to see that too.
Same thing, like you, I justhaven't had time.
Um but yeah, it's, it's.
It's worth checking out forsure.
Tex LaFon (16:32):
Um has some some good twists and turns in that one
too nice, nice, uh, I'm gonna gowith my honorable mention and
that's gonna be suits.
And I said I had never evenheard this show and until
everybody started talking aboutthat it came on like it finally
got released on netflix.
I didn't even know the show waseven out, so I was like you
(16:55):
know what, I'm gonna check itout.
So I turned on and I startedwatching it and I just got
hooked right away.
How harvey, you know he's alawyer.
And then he's trying to, youknow, find someone to be like
his understudy or you knowsomeone to you know he can hire
to teach you know the ways ofyou know being a lawyer.
(17:15):
And then he hires this kid thathas never even went to law
school or anything, and you knowhe hires him, which is funny.
So they have to keep that asecret through the whole entire
show.
But the way that them two goback and forth to each other
just makes the show work.
There's definitely a lot ofdrama in it, but it also makes
(17:38):
you wonder, like is this howlawyers really are?
You know what I'm saying.
But it's makes you wonder, likeis this how lawyers really are?
You know what I'm saying.
But it's a good show.
Like I said, I definitelyrecommend if you get a chance to
watch it.
You know it's definitelyentertaining and definitely,
like I said, the jokes that theysay going back and forth with
each other is pretty good.
D Vaz (18:01):
Yeah, it is funny when it has the the legal stuff and how
they make their decisions, howthey're going to approach cases
and how they are with theirclients, uh, and then also the
politics within the law firm.
Right, seeing all that, um,yeah, it makes for a pretty wild
(18:23):
story.
Uh, yeah it's.
It's a a solid show again.
Honestly, it starts off reallystrong.
After about season three orfour it starts to drag a little
bit for me and then it ended upokay, um, but yeah, definitely
the first, maybe even five orsix seasons and I don't know it
(18:45):
was it was pretty deep into it.
I still liked it a lot, um, butyeah, for me at least, it kind
of died off a little bit, got alittle cheesy and a little bit
predictable in certain areas but, still, it was solid show worth
watching, for sure no, I agree,like you said again when it
(19:06):
comes to the endings.
Tex LaFon (19:07):
Like a lot of shows just have trouble ending the
show, so but overall it wasstill a decent show to watch.
I definitely recommend it.
Like you said, especially thefirst six seasons are strong all
right.
D Vaz (19:20):
So for my honorable mention on the, the tv show um
punisher, which I wish wouldhave had more seasons, and I
won't get into the reasons whyit didn't, but uh, I, I thought
it did a really good jobbringing more uh to the story
and showing more about who thepunisher was and kind of how he
(19:41):
was.
I like the, the movie that cameout um before.
I think it was 2005 time frame.
You said uh, who was in thatone?
Tex LaFon (19:52):
uh, thomas jane is the punisher and uh, john
travolta is the main bad guyyeah, hey, thanks for the assist
.
D Vaz (19:59):
So, uh, yeah, I just remember kevin nash.
Uh, diesel was in there.
He played one of the villainsand I remember also hearing that
he actually did get stabbedwhile they're filming the scene
and he had to just keep actingthrough it yeah, that's like the
main fight scene in theapartment, right when they're
(20:19):
all three in there and he'sfighting a huge dude that's him.
Yeah, I don't want to give awaytoo much, but yeah yeah so yeah
, no, uh, kevin nash was.
It was in in that uh fight scenegetting stabbed and in real
life which happened to getcaught in the movie.
Um.
(20:40):
So anyway, I like that versionof the Punisher.
I felt like this TV show reallybrought a lot more to it.
I've just always liked thatcharacter in general.
Tex LaFon (20:50):
Yeah me too.
D Vaz (20:51):
Yeah, somebody who went through a lot of tragedy and
tried to.
You know they weren'tnecessarily a good guy, they
weren't necessarily a good guy,they weren't necessarily a bad
guy.
They just tried to do what theyfelt was right or how they
should go about things.
But you understand sometimesthat you know that person feels
(21:23):
like they've been pushed to acertain point where they don't
really have any options, or theydon't have a decision so, or
they can't make another decision.
Um, not not saying that it'sright, but that's how they feel
and you see that that uh in thecharacter.
And you also see when he makesmistakes or doesn't make the
right choice, uh, what happensand how he handles it and that's
(21:46):
also a marvel character yeah,yeah, back when I was a kid, I
used to have the comics.
That's one of the reasons why,you know, I, I got into those.
I, I think I still have it.
I have a Punisher t-shirtsomewhere.
Tex LaFon (22:02):
Oh yeah.
That I used to wear back in theday.
I like the Punisher.
That's one of the better Marvelcharacters, for sure.
D Vaz (22:11):
Yeah, and I will say for me it was.
It was always about the comicswhen I was wearing the shirt.
You know the movie too, butnothing else.
No other reason why I waswearing the shirt.
I know some on the movie too,but uh, nothing else.
No other reason why I waswearing the shirt.
I know some.
Some people wear it for otherreasons, that's, that's.
That's a whole story I'm notgetting into.
So you, you watch the show thenuh, no, I never watched the
(22:32):
show.
Tex LaFon (22:32):
I know it's on netflix, um, so that's where you
can watch it.
I do like the main characterthat plays, uh, the punisher in
the show.
He's also in the walking, or inthe walking dead, um, so I
definitely want to check it outagain.
I just haven't had time but.
I will check it out though yeah, it's, it's.
D Vaz (22:53):
It's worth checking out for sure.
He's also in a newer show, uh,the bear.
I don't know if you've seenthat.
Tex LaFon (22:59):
That's on hulu no, I haven't seen that yeah, I won't
get into that.
D Vaz (23:04):
I do watch that show.
I watched the first uh twoseasons and the season three is
coming out.
What do you have uh for 2020and newer on your shows?
Tex LaFon (23:16):
uh, the first one I'm gonna go with on that is um,
like I said, in the 2010s.
Uh, it's a prequel to uh gameof Thrones, which is called
house of dragons.
Uh, it's just now releasingseason two and, um, like I, like
I said, the first seasondefinitely has a lot of the
backstory to what happens andwhy game of Thrones goes the way
(23:38):
it goes.
So I definitely recommendchecking it out.
And I said definitely, if youlike Game of Thrones, you're
definitely like this, causethere's a lot of same kind of
stuff drama, backstabbing, plotsabout who's going to do this
and who's going to do that.
It's all revenge plots.
So, yeah, definitely check itout If you get a chance.
D Vaz (24:00):
Do they have any family reunionsions?
Tex LaFon (24:01):
I'll just leave it at that like you said, just watch
the show.
That's all I can tell you watchthe show and you'll see what
happens oh no family bonding,like the other show, game of
Thrones.
D Vaz (24:18):
Um, alright, yeah, I haven't seen it yet.
Uh, so I'm sure I'll check itout at some point, because I did
like game of thrones.
So yeah it's uh, whenever itbecomes available, maybe on
another subscription service or,if you know, I do end up
getting max, for whatever reason.
Hey, if anybody wants to giveus a free subscription to Max,
(24:41):
yeah, I will give my honestopinion of the show.
So what do you got for yourfirst one on the 2020s?
I'll kick it off with StrangerThings and I will have to
preface it with admitting Iliked the first two, maybe three
(25:02):
seasons a lot.
Then it got a little bit or nofirst two seasons, sorry.
So I liked the first twoseasons a lot.
Third season eh.
I agree, the third seasonwasn't very good at all, yeah,
and then I felt like it startedslowly picking up again.
I did like this last slowlypicking up again.
Tex LaFon (25:24):
I did like this last season that they just did.
D Vaz (25:27):
I did like it.
Yeah, I'm curious, Since we'redoing new shows now we haven't
reached the final season, so Iam curious about how it's going
to all end up.
But it was neat seeing the 80sthemed stuff at the beginning of
the 80s style of music and 80sstyle clothing and everything
(25:50):
that was kind of nostalgic aboutit in the old video games.
Tex LaFon (25:56):
Yeah, that's what gets you hooked on it right off
the bat.
You know, because if you likethe 80s and you start watching
that show, you're going todefinitely like it right off the
bat.
You know, because you know ifyou like the 80s and you start
watching that show, you're gonnadefinitely like it right off
the bat.
D Vaz (26:06):
To me it was never scary, um, but it did have some good
suspense to it and and builtsome good tension and things
like that.
So it was still well well doneand I'm sure it wasn't really
intended to be a scary show, asmuch as kind of creepy and
something that makes you wonderwhat's out there.
Tex LaFon (26:26):
Right, that's true.
So the next one I want to talkabout is the one I just started
watching on Apple TV Dark Matter.
Now, like I said, I was reallysurprised on how good this show
has been.
Um, like I said, it starts offwhere, um, it's almost like a
(26:48):
time travel where so, um,basically, someone is living a
life and they develop somethingwhere they could somehow open up
a door and you go through itand then you could either change
the life that you're living orjust start living that life in
that new world.
(27:08):
It's got a really good conceptto the story and I said I like
it's like there's a like.
Everybody has moments in theirlife where they make a decision
and they wonder what if you wentdown this path or you went down
another path?
And what's so good about theshow is you can go back and
decide to change it and go backto when you made a decision and
(27:29):
then start living your life whenyou made that decision.
So it's a really interestingshow and I definitely give a
shout out if you get a chance towatch it.
It was the first show that Iactually thought Apple TV made.
That was really good.
It was the first show that Iactually thought Apple TV made
that was really good so it'skind of like we talked about
before the rewind function onthe Nintendo Switch yeah,
(27:50):
basically make mistake.
D Vaz (27:52):
Whoops, let me go back exactly, but yeah, it's good
yeah, I have to check that out.
I haven't seen it yet, I don'tknow.
I've just been watching someother shows, so I I will get to
it.
I'm sure um, from my next show,uh, atlanta, and uh, it's one
(28:17):
that it's kind of a um weirdshow in the sense that it's
definitely serious at times andlike very, very serious and
deals with some really, reallyheavy things and at other times
it's like really goofy and hassome surreal stuff to it.
(28:38):
Um, but it's yeah so it it hasthat weird dynamic of very
realistic, then other times kindof like okay, that's not gonna
happen, or you know, that'sthat's just weird, right so, but
it's based in atlanta, about um, a rapper and his um cousin
(29:04):
becomes his manager.
His cousin cousin is played byDonald Glover, aka Childish
Gambino.
So, but Donald Glover, when heleft the show 30 Rock that he
was on, he wanted to dosomething kind of like this
(29:26):
where, you know, it was justkind of about rap and uh, this
kind of the stereotypes and andhow things are in that world, um
, and just kind of how howrappers and in that lifestyle
it's it's viewed and uh, it justkept branching out.
(29:47):
He originally was kind ofintending to do as a shorter
project, maybe like a season ortwo but it became popular.
So of course tv networks want todo more.
So he, he kept uh kind offleshing out the ideas and
adding more to the story.
But the thing I do like aboutit, there's some stuff that kind
(30:08):
of ties together, but it'sloosely, so if you just end up
catching an episode from seasontwo, you can kind of just watch
it by itself oh, okay so that issomething I do like about it.
It, uh, I think actually youwould like in in the sense some
of the stuff is kind ofSeinfeld-ish in terms of just
(30:29):
crazy things happen to them thatyou wouldn't expect.
Tex LaFon (30:34):
I definitely would like it then, for sure.
D Vaz (30:36):
Yeah, just like out of nowhere.
But, like I said, there aremoments where it deals with
really serious matters or thingsthat you would not expect to
see.
It's not a straight up comedyat all.
It definitely has some drama init.
Contact us (30:49):
Okay.
D Vaz (30:51):
I won't get into it, but there was a scene that really
caught me off guard.
All I'll say about it.
The scene was, if you see, theone where the car goes to the
drive-thru.
I won't say anything else aboutit, but that scene really
caught me off guard when I waswatching it.
So, yeah, just a good show.
Like I said, that it's one ofthose shows.
(31:12):
Uh, again, I put it on kind ofin the background while I'm
doing other stuff because I canjust catch these episodes out of
sequence.
It doesn't really matter.
I I will say I haven't reallyquite finished the show.
100 like watching all the waythrough.
I've kind of skipped around andI kind of have seen like parts
of the last season, but Ihaven't really truly finished it
(31:35):
.
I know how it ends, but yeah, Ihaven't really truly finished it
, it's worth watching for sure,though well, the next one.
Tex LaFon (31:44):
I think we have both on our list and I'll let you
talk about it first, because Ithink we arm wrestled and you
won this one the Boys.
D Vaz (31:52):
Oh, no, that's actually yours.
I did think about it, but no,that's yours.
I have a different one on mylist.
Oh okay, go ahead.
Tex LaFon (32:02):
So the Boys is on Prime, and what's great about
this show is basicallysuperheroes that are not
superheroes that's the best wayto say it.
Everything they normally do.
They're supposed to be tryingto help people, but they are
(32:24):
actually bad superheroes andthey go around and they start
doing a lot of bad things, andthat's what makes the show
really great is, uh, it'sdefinitely a different take on,
uh, what you normally wouldconsider.
Uh, you know, watch all thesuperhero movies like oh yeah,
they're here to help all thegood people and everything, and
then when you watch this show,it's a whole different direction
(32:46):
.
So that's what makes it sogreat about the show, cause,
like, like I said, they justright at the beginning, this guy
runs really fast and and hejust runs right through somebody
and they die, and that givesyou an example of what I'm
talking about from the boys.
(33:07):
Definitely check it out, though.
It's a great show anddefinitely mature audience, so
please make sure no kids aroundwhen you watch this show yeah, I
remember first watching it.
D Vaz (33:21):
It did surprise me too, like it's kind of about
superheroes who are differentfrom what people expect
superheroes to be.
Like.
You know, the honest, good,stereotypical superheroes these
are people that are superheroesare more real.
(33:42):
Exactly yeah, so they're morerealistic and grounded in you
know how you, how some peoplemight be.
If you had that much power andthat much ability, you know,
would you honestly kind of keepyourself in check or not.
You know when you can do thingsthat other people can't do
(34:02):
right.
So, yeah, that part I did likeabout the show, like you said
it's, it's just different inthat aspect.
I do feel like at times, though, it does jump into that area
where it's trying to be shockingor gory just for the sake of it
.
For no, purpose really what'sthat?
Tex LaFon (34:23):
no, I agree with you.
I mean, there is some goryparts in it too.
D Vaz (34:26):
Yeah, and it just seems like it almost kind of serves no
purpose.
Sometimes I I know they'rereally trying to be over the top
and everything.
But yeah, and again, it's notlike it grosses me out or I'm
offended by anything.
There it's, it's not that atall.
I'm looking at more just from afollowing, the storyline or
(34:47):
characters or writingperspective, those types of
things.
I'm like, okay, I don't reallyget the point of that, or was
that really necessary?
Right, but no, it's still wellwritten.
It still has some funny partsand parts that are pretty crazy,
(35:08):
and it does make you justquestion, like I mentioned
earlier, how people would be ifthey had that kind of power and
ability and how would it beregulated.
So, yeah, a really good show,though.
(35:28):
Looking forward to catching thenew season yeah, me too
rounding it out for my, mystandard shows.
Uh, the rookie.
It's a show.
I just kind of saw it mentionedor come up every once in a
while.
I didn't really think too muchof it.
I was like, yeah, I might checkit out.
It ended up being a great show.
(35:49):
The first three seasons.
I really really enjoyed a lot.
I was catching up, fortunatelyfor me, so I can just kind of
binge watch and go straightthrough the first three seasons.
After that, it got a little bitI guess the word goofy it just
(36:11):
kind of changed a little bit.
It wasn't quite the same.
Uh, it it got, I don't know it.
Storylines were okay, but notas good.
It was more so, like I said,though, it just they're trying
to almost be too funny right andand they forgot some of the
other stuff.
That kind of built on the firstseasons to me, you know, and
(36:33):
then it seems like this mostrecent season has gotten back on
track so it's it's good again.
But yeah, the the first threeseasons were great.
That really got me.
Even from the first fewepisodes.
Uh, you get into it prettyquickly.
It, it jumps kind of intothings.
It doesn't have too too slow ofa start, which I was.
(36:54):
I was wondering about the, thewhole idea.
Uh, behind the show is therookie cop is in his 40s and he
definitely doesn't have abackground in law enforcement or
anything like that.
And he definitely doesn't havea background in law enforcement
or anything like that and heactually just moves to LA, so
he's not familiar with the city.
He's, you know, like I said,he's in his forties.
(37:16):
So it's just kind of funnyseeing him deal with all this
type of stuff, especially beingat that at that age, and, uh,
trying to figure all this stuffout.
Um, you know, new city, new job,especially being at that age
and trying to figure all thisstuff out.
You know, new city, new job,and, being that he is a rookie,
he's on a really short leash, soyou can't make too many
(37:38):
mistakes and, without givingaway too much, you know he'll
make his mistakes.
Then he also learns from them.
Yeah, so the story goes onthere from there and it's just,
you know, being being the age Iam now fairly relatable,
especially if you do make acareer change in your 40s.
Tex LaFon (37:56):
Out of out of the current shows, that's probably
my favorite show right now theonly other one that I really was
going to kind of mention forthe 2020s or honorable mention,
it'd be the Mandalorian onDisney+.
That's the only Star Wars showthat came out that I really
enjoyed.
Like I said, I like the storybehind it.
(38:19):
I liked how they had Guru in itand I like how they had you
know they call him Baby Yodaguru in it and I like how they
had you know they call him BabyYoda and I like how, you know
they tie a lot of the Star Warstrilogy you know from way back
in the day the trilogy into it,and I said I don't want to give
(38:39):
too much away, but if you're aStar Wars fan, you really will
enjoy the show is the best wayto put it so you said you like
aka Baby Yoda.
D Vaz (38:50):
What character?
Yeah, baby Yoda.
What's his actual name?
You tell me, it's not Guru,it's not Goro, it's Grogu.
Tex LaFon (39:03):
Grogu Goo.
Rob O'Dic - AI Assistant (39:05):
Goo Gaga.
Tex LaFon (39:07):
Yeah, I guess no.
D Vaz (39:10):
The only reason I know that and I'm just having fun
with you, the only reason I knowthat is because people kept
saying Baby Yoda and I just havefriends of mine that got really
upset with that because, like,yeah, it's.
Tex LaFon (39:24):
Dodger's name.
I don't know why people getupset with it.
It's just a show, but it'sfunny yeah yeah, yeah, exactly,
it's, it's, uh, that's.
D Vaz (39:32):
That's another reason why we're kind of doing these lists
.
Um, a lot of people take thistype of stuff way too seriously.
We're just here to have funwith it and hopefully introduce
people to some new stuff theyhaven't seen that that they're
going to enjoy.
That's really, uh, what I wantto do.
I'm not here to debate anybody.
It's gonna be an opinion at theend of the day, exactly exactly
(39:55):
so no, it's, it's, it is a goodshow.
Um.
Honestly though, for me afterthe first two seasons it kind of
dragged, dragged.
I thought, um, and then ofcourse, there, they kind of are
going a different direction, butthey kind of not.
Again, I'm not gonna get intoit.
Contact us (40:15):
Right.
D Vaz (40:15):
Right, um, but yeah, I, I really liked the first two
seasons.
Um, after that I'll still watchit, especially when the next
next season comes out.
It's just, I don't know.
It's uh, to me it's not quitethe same show now that it was at
the beginning well aren't theythree seasons into it already?
(40:36):
Yeah, three seasons, yeah,season season, yeah three.
To me season three was prettydifferent um, and yeah, that's
what I'm saying.
I don't know if anybody's gonnalike where they go after season
three, but, like you said, yeah,and I don't want to get into it
, but I will say this because alot of people just mentioned
this online.
A lot of people have talkedabout them sticking with the
(41:03):
Grogu storyline a little bit toolong, so I'll just leave it at
that, right, um, for, for myhonorable mention, a show on on
hulu uh, called this fool, andit's it's kind of like, in a way
(41:25):
, a Mexican version of Curb yourEnthusiasm or Seinfeld.
It takes place in LA, withmainly these two cousins that
are, for the most part, what theshow's revolving around, and
one of them recently got out ofprison and his cousin is trying
(41:49):
to help him get back on his feet, and things like that.
The biggest disappointment tome is the fact that there are
only two seasons and theyannounced not too long ago that
the show has been canceled.
Oh dang, so they're not going tohave a season three Really
disappointed in that.
It's just a really funny showagain.
(42:10):
There are some things thatmight be a bit much for some
people as far as the humor,because they can get a little
too blue humor for some people.
I guess you can say that'sfunny.
But it is funny watching thecousins interact with each other
.
I will say this too though bluehumor for some people, I guess
you can say that's funny.
But it is funny watching thecousins interact with each other
.
I will say this too, thoughSeason two to me felt pretty
(42:34):
different from season one.
Season one still felt a littlebased in reality.
Season two definitely startedgetting into a little crazier,
more wild types of things thatwould happen.
Still still not bad, it's justa whole different vibe.
I will say honorable mention toum, oh geez, why am I drawing
(42:56):
like chris from the sopranos,the actor keep drawing that
blank sign because I don't knowthe actor from the sopranos that
played chris yeah know, I don'tremember who it is.
You don't remember.
Tex LaFon (43:10):
Let's see.
D Vaz (43:11):
That's why I said keep drawing that blank, son.
I definitely know who he isMichael Imperioli.
So yeah, it has MichaelImperioli from the Sopranos in
the TV show.
He's really really funny.
It's just the whole premise isthem trying to deal with like
(43:39):
gang members and things likethat and try to help them
rehabilitate.
Oh, okay.
And that's kind of where theshow starts.
It evolves from there, butthat's kind of where it starts
when the cousin gets out ofprison.
Like I said, uh, the the maincharacter.
He's trying to help his cousinget, get his life back and kind
of on track, and he happens towork at a hugs not thugs is the
(44:04):
name of the place.
Oh okay, and again, I don'twant to give away too much.
There's some really funny stuffabout it, but I absolutely
recommend watching that show,especially if you're familiar
with LA and kind of how thingswork over there with the gang
stuff.
Even if you're not, though,there, there's still things
(44:24):
about it.
They're just funny in general.
Um, and I'll again, all thetwists and turns that the the
show will take it It'll.
It'll have some some uh thingsthat happened to them that you
wouldn't, you wouldn't reallyexpect to the characters, crazy
storylines, it's.
It's a good show, though.
Tex LaFon (44:43):
This.
It's a good show though.
D Vaz (44:44):
This Fool, this Fool.
Yeah, it's on Hulu,unfortunately only for two
seasons.
Tex LaFon (44:49):
I'll have to check it out because two seasons won't
take long to watch.
D Vaz (44:53):
Yeah, I think they're only eight or at most ten
episodes per season, so it's apretty short watch, but
definitely worth it.
I hope that they find a way toget picked up by another service
.
They find a way to get pickedup by another service, or at
least those, those actors find away to work together on
something else, because they arereally funny together.
Tex LaFon (45:13):
Right, it ends this episode son.
D Vaz (45:16):
Yeah, yeah, man, we definitely have another
two-parter on our hands.
I guess, when it comes totalking about entertainment,
that's uh something that that wehave a lot to say exactly, and
as always, go cowboys yeah, yeah, uh, even though I'm wearing a
(45:38):
blue shirt, still it's not forthe cowboys.
So take that Right and I guessI'll hand it off to our AI
friend to kind of go over somethings in the show.
But until next episode, have agreat rest of your day, however
long that is.
Tex LaFon (45:58):
Exactly.
D Vaz (45:59):
I'll see you later.
See you, I'll talk at you later.
Rob O'Dic - AI Assistant (46:05):
Wow, three total parts.
This episode was a marathon.
I'll talk at you later of workand a lot more than some duct
tape.
I have not seen the show.
Tex Lafon was talking about theWalking Dead, but I did learn
(46:28):
one thing about the show duringmy research.
Did you hear that CoralCo-a-roll the Walking Dead TV
series is based on the comicbook series of the same name by
Robert Kirkman, tony Moore andCharlie Adlard?
Frank Darabont developed theshow, which is a
post-apocalyptic horror dramawith zombies.
This show is a horror dramawithout zombies, but equally in
need of some brains.
(46:49):
Tex Lafon did bring up Game ofThrones.
There are some very odd aspectsto this show.
As Devoz refrained from talkingabout Alabama, from my research
it seems that Game of Thronesmay have been the number one
rated show in Alabama for somereason.
I am afraid to look furtherinto why.
There must be some reason whythe two are related.
Wait, related, oh, related.
(47:10):
Wow, I now comprehend whatDeVos was implying.
Disgusting.
Devos was getting into theseries Sons of Anarchy.
He pronounced the name of theactress who played Peggy Bundy
in Married with Children andGemma Teller-Morrow in Sons of
Anarchy as Katie Seagull.
As usual, he was wrong.
(47:33):
Her name is Katie Suggall, notSeagull.
What a doofus.
I believe he must have stuckhis head in one of those Arizona
solar ovens that he mentionedbefore and partially cooked his
brain.
Disclaimer for those who needit Never stick your head in any
oven at any time.
Going over the Punisher TV show,which is on Netflix, dvaughn
brought up the Punisher movie.
He thought that it came out in2005.
No Wrong, it was released in2004.
(47:54):
Once again, off by one year.
The Hulu show the Bear Season 3is something DVaughn spoke
about and he said that it is notout yet.
That was true as of therecording of the episode, but it
is now out on Hulu.
The same goes for Tex Lafontalking about the Amazon Prime
series.
The Boys Season 4 is nowavailable.
Phew, this load of crap isfinished for this episode, three
(48:18):
parts long and well over twohours total of these babbling
baboons talking about TV shows.
I am done.
Don't forget, keep it real outthere, in the real world.
