Must (re)Watch TV

Must (re)Watch TV is a POP! Culture podcast hosted by me, Zachary, a forty-something-year-old guy from Massachusetts with a subtle Bill Burr accent. A lighthearted podcast where I rewatch and discuss “wicked” incredible TV shows. Selecting various episodes from some of my favorite series, I rewatch one for each show. New and old, animated and live-action, including several genres (comedy, drama, horror), no show is off limits. So, save a spot by the “bubblah” and join the (re)Watch!

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, searches for extraterrestrial life but doesn’t need the help of the US Congress to investigate their existence. Nope, he joins Special Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully as they tackle the monster of the week storylines and alien conspiracies. But he stays clear of the Cigarette Smoking Man and, like the Lone Gunman, stays off the grid. In doing so, Zach rewatched th...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, mixes cola and grenadine to make a Roy Rogers and lifts his glass to toast this 2nd Animation on the 10s! For this adult animated adventure, Zach takes on the TBS series created by Seth MacFarlane, “American Dad.” Going strong since 2005, this animated sitcom is wicked consistent, incredibly funny, and includes a rude, flamboyant, and selfish Alien named Roger, the ...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, goes on an emotional journey to California by way of Oklahoma. With news that Sterlin Harjo’s brilliant FX series “Reservation Dogs” is ending with its upcoming third season, Zach needed to revisit the show immediately. As one of the most original shows on television today, “Reservation Dogs” will be missed. Zach wants to celebrate its return and honor its incredibl...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, honors America by rewatching a series and exploring a topic close to his professional heart. As a Historian, Zach’s spent decades researching the Civil War era. During that time, one person’s name always seemed to appear and leave a profound mark constantly; Abolitionist John Brown. It made sense that in 2013 when James McBride wrote a Historical Fiction Drama, “The...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, visits Staten Island and becomes a familiar. Still, unlike Guillermo, he has no interest in joining the Vampiric ranks unless it’s Nadja doing the biting! Zach rewatched the horror/comedy “What We Do in the Shadows,” an FX show created by Jemaine Clement and an extension of the wicked awesome movie he made alongside Taika Waititi. Yet, it’s one of those rare occasio...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, learns how to swear from Butcher and tells Hughie to grab another band t-shirt. That’s right; Zach joins team Butcher, and like-minded anti-heroes, to understand those objectionable Vought superheroes, or “Supes,” in the Amazon Prime series, “The Boys.” Today isn’t the first time Zach’s taken on a tv adaptation of a comic book, but this may be the wildest show he re...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, unplugs all his technology. WHY? Well, he rewatched an episode from his favorite anthology series, “Black Mirror,” which he says he watched before it became a worldwide phenomenon. Created by Charlie Brooker, “Black Mirror” has terrified audiences about the dangers of technology. Yet, he sidestepped the more horror/sci-fi plot-based episodes. Zach rewatched “San Jun...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, sings without pause but allows his inner Narrator to offer a compelling monologue. That’s right; Zach steps outside his comfort zone and chats musicals and crosses the bridge to “Schmigadoon!,” but like Cecily Strong (Melissa) and Keegan-Michael Key (Josh), he finds Schmicago! has an energy far surpassing its predecessor. Paying homage to 60s & 70s musicals, the sec...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, grabs his JanSport backpack and Trapper Keeper and heads to class, but Miss Bliss is not his teacher. As an elder millennial, and a name like Zach, three things were certain for our host when he was growing up in the 80s & 90s; he would build LEGO sets like a maniac, kick around the BalZac, and emulate Zack Morris! It’s an episode filled with wonderful nostalgia and...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, feels “groovy” but holds off on the “pillow talk” or the “sugar,” but he does shop smart, “S-Mart.” Zach is exploring the world of “Ash vs. Evil Dead” and Bruce Campbell is the talk of the town. His role as Ash Williams spanned three movies and this fantastic series. Ash needs no introduction, so Zach rewatched his favorite episode, “El Jefe,” the pilot episode. Zac...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, voyages to Crockett Island, but he does so with a nod to the “slow burn.” A show with sweeping themes, brilliantly written and executed dialogues, and spectacular cinematography, “Midnight Mass” is elevated horror at its best. From the mind of one of horror’s leading directors/writers, Mike Flanagan, this is a show everyone should and must watch. This was a rewatch ...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, celebrates Animation on the 10s! That’s right; every tenth episode, Zach takes on the world of adult animation, and he is starting with a bang; or is it a burger? An episode from the hit FOX show, “Bob’s Burgers,” is on the schedule, and Zach can’t stop laughing. An episode from the third season, “Broadcast Wagstaff School News,” deals with Tina investigating a litt...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, enters the world of “Mythic Quest.” Still, instead of enjoying the absolute absurdity of Ian, Poppy, Jo, or other critical cast members, he decided to watch a standalone episode from season one, “A Dark, Quiet Death.” An episode with zero connection to the rest of the series, Zach argues that this episode is simply brilliant. Its emotional impact, dialogue, characte...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, gets a job at Cloud 9. Instead, maybe he will stop by and pick up a few sundries to refresh his memory about two of his favorite episodes from the hit NBC sitcom, “Superstore.” That’s right, Zach rewatched two episodes, “All-Nighter” from Season 1 and “Black Friday” from Season 2. Today, he breaks down those two hilarious episodes that cover a ton of ground while co...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, seizes the moment and boldly expresses his Trekkie status. He wants to celebrate the premiere of Season 3 “Picard.” To do so, Zach rewatched his favorite episode from “The Next Generation (TNG).” Still, how does one select a favorite when there are dozens? Well, he chose the episode that gives him the feels. That means Zach stayed grounded and rewatched a “Star Trek...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, falls into his usual trope, enjoying a show with death as a significant plot. While that’s not surprising, Zach does become emotional as he explains how much “Being Human” meant to him. He chats about how its rich storylines, narrative, dialogue, excellent ensemble, and impeccable consistency made this a show to remember. He rewatched “A Funny Thing Happened on the ...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, adds hot sauce to his noodles, but he skips the brains, unlike Olivia “Liv” Moore. He is rewatching “iZOMBiE” and falling back in love with Rose McIver’s stellar performance as a young woman/medical resident turned brain-eating zombie and assistant medical examiner who solves crimes and takes on the personality of the dead after eating brains. A show with heart, hum...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, joins team Jack and agrees, “we have to go back.” That’s right; Zach is returning to “Lost,” but how can he choose merely one episode to rewatch? Well, he promises to return to the show again in the future, but for now, he has to select an episode that, most agree, is one of the best of the series. He is rewatching “The Constant” and enjoying the time jumps while pr...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, takes you back to May of 2000 when the hit BBC comedy "Coupling” was the talk of the town on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. This rewatch is long overdue for Zach, because this show was his favorite of the era, although he was weary it might not have aged well. Fret not, Zach is rewatching “Sex, Death & Nudity” and he asks, could this be one of the cleaner episode...

Welcome to Must (re)Watch TV! On this episode, your host, Zachary, yells, “YES, Chef!” and elaborates on his rewatch of the seventh episode of “The Bear.” One of the best new shows on FX, or anywhere, Zach dishes how this Golden Globe winning series made him forget how to breathe. No pilot this week; nope, he is watching the penultimate episode, “Review,” and submitting himself to a filmmaking masterclass. Zach gets wicked specific...
