Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is what you watch on Wednesday as well.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
The following program is brought to you in living color,
but you watch it in there. Americans love television. They
win their kids college USA television.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Man, you've been watching too many of those live television shows.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
Well, I did mention that I am watching the Simon
Cowell new project that Netflix is giving the documentary treatment.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
He's trying to develop a boy band.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Simon cow As you know, numerous boy band affiliations, one
direction probably being the most popular. He had his boy band,
I believe they were called five pass On Bye Bye
Bye that went to in sync.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Lost is History.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Really I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Yeah, And this is about small town boys fifteen to
eighteen years old who are from just middle class neighborhoods
who want to be in a boy band. And he
kind of gives it the American idol treatment in terms of,
you know, you start with sixteen them, I think he does,
and he kind of, you know, whittles it down the list.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
And it's just kind of nice to see.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Kids from Ireland and from Portugal and from England and
they come to America for the first time, they say,
in Miami, and they go through all the vocal training
and all the things that go into it, and they're
sweet kids and.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Sea hold up, he's had some work done, oh I
know that. But I mean just his personality.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
It comes across in the show more likable than he
ever has my opinion. But I apparently I stopped paying
attention to Simon Cowell. I don't know when I stopped
watching American Idol circa two thousand and six. I haven't
watched that show for a very long time. I mean
I was super into it when it first came out,
and he was just kind of the d you know,
and then I didn't really pay attention to him. So
(01:49):
this is kind of my first immersion into his persona
since then.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
And he's very likable and.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
He's been around. I mean, like you said, it's been
twenty years that he's been a fixture on American television
and before that, obviously it was British television. But that
original personality that we saw from him on American Idol
as the kind of just nose in the air, you know,
stick in the mud kind of guy arms cross arms
(02:17):
cross the whole time.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
And needless to say, I am looking for a new
show to watch I'm you know, I'm watching simon call
reality TV. So in twenty twenty five, so.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I watch I Love La. It's on each Oh I.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Eat those up every Sunday night. It is good.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I like that one.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You wouldn't like it?
Speaker 5 (02:36):
I think.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
You think Gary would like that.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
No, but he needs to get on the trend.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
He wouldn't like it.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (02:43):
It's good?
Speaker 4 (02:44):
It's about well Elmer watches too, elm are you describe it.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
It's about influencers making it an told.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, it's not your thing. I love it.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
It's a group of.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Friends living in LA, navigating their careers, love life struggles.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
It's just so fun.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
How come we didn't have any fallout from that guy dying?
Like I thought that that was going to be a
major like plot arc and it was just like we're
done with that, Like we we all fell in love
with that guy and then they killed him and then
it's like what, We're just moving on?
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Do you think it was just like the comp like
I don't know, like HBO, Like maybe he did something
bad and they just needed to kill his character. Maybe
something was going to come out and affect the show.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Maybe, but like what could it be?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
That wouldn't just give it more publicity and more eyes
on it. It was just so odd how he was
such a he was like a bit character. Yeah, but
everyone loved him immediately, and all the characters on the
show loved him immediately, and then they kill him off
and then and then nobody speaks.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Some of him again this reality show, right, No, it's
not really descripted.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Oh, what do you think about that girl Tallula, like
the wild child friend of Maya?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Do you like her or does she annoy him?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Maya's bothering me, Like, I didn't like that whole thing
she pulled with his.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Work party, and that was too much pocket, so out
of pocket, and the fact that she just acted like what,
it's nothing. I thought you were having fun. I thought
it was like, no, not cool. Anyway, I'm obsessed and
you're not hot enough to pull that off. Obsessed with
who Rachel sent it? Maya?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
She plays a character, the one how one. She's funny,
she's like so quirky and like I love her.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Wait, you're talking about the ritz cracker girl or her friend.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
The one that works in media, not the crazy influencer
with the wild heir.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
So you like the girl who did that whole like
work party kitchen debacle.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
No, that's I like Rachel, the girl that's dating that
guy hutcher Sin guy in really in the show.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Lost and Lost and Confused.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, I'm going to pull up that.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
Friends with the French guy's assistant.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
You like he likes someone who's dating Josh Hutcherson in
the show. You like the crazy the influence agent that's
like the baby agent's hot, the one that made the
mess of her husband's work party or her boyfriend's work party.
I like her.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
That's who Shannon hates.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
I don't like her.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
I don't hate her, but I don't like what you're
doing to Lula's the influencer girl with the wavy.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I love Telula. She's beautiful and magical.
Speaker 5 (05:18):
Gary is so lost, right.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I think that Maya is just deliberately trying to blow
up her relationship with that guy because she wants to
get back to the guy that Yes, I just.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
Say one thing real quick, you know, at the ending,
when she oh, it's spoiler, but I'm not going to say,
but when her boss is basically like, yeah, you need
to take a chopo and appreciate what you have I
feel like a lot of people in our generation do
need to like listen to that one speech because it's like, yeah,
you're not going to get everything you want immediately.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
You have to work for it.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
You have to, like you know what I mean, be
a disciple for a second. And like I think a
lot of people in our generation now are kind of
like fast track trying to be like the CEO when
it's like now, I gotta.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
Learn, Yes, Elmer, before you were here, Gary did this
rant all the time and he said there was a
dues gap going on. You don't pay your dues and
you've got to pay your dues to get to where you.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
You want to be. But you can't. You can't have
that gap, you know.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I agree, you could use that term if you like quote.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
But Leeton Measter is like the older cracks me up.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Yeah, like.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Me too.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
I can't not picture her and gossip Girl and I
love that show.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Continue with what we have some new Diddy documentary news.
By the way, yes all her fault on Peacock. We
finished up that show. It's a kidnapping show. That's all
I'm going to say about that. The beast in me
is when we just started that's on Netflix. That is
this story of a writer played by Claire Danes and
(06:49):
her new neighbor played by Matthew Reese, who's accused of
he's got a shady past, may murdered his wife and
she's an author and she's looking for a new subject,
so she's to write about him.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
I am almost done with the diplomat, the entire thing.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I don't like the turn season three took. I don't
like what they did to them.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
I did not like that at all, And I don't
know how it ends. But you're not done, not done.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
But I don't like that they could have they should
have kept it with just like uh flirtation that didn't
get and then.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
That with that got what?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Eh?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
I was not happy with that.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Did you feel the same way?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah? Very much?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
So okay, because I really liked them.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Well, there's no reason you don't have to hate them,
you know.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
I don't want to go through somebody's like marital strife
on a show like I watch it for entertainment.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
How much you're crap together? How many episodes you have left?
Speaker 5 (07:45):
One?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Oh? Okay, okay, so then it'll wrap up for you. Yeah,
pluribus on Apple TV. That's another one that's I'm I'm
really liking it because it is not just a weird show.
I mean it is a weird show.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
How many episodes into it are you.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Six or seven? Whatever? I mean, we're caught up. It
comes out every Friday. It is a Vince Gilligan is brilliant.
I mean, did a lot of the Breaking Bad and
Better Call Saul, so a lot of his kind of
tricks in terms of placement of characters, use of color,
different kinds of shots, like he's all of that stuff
(08:22):
is very Vince Gilligan. But there's messages in this that
it seems like every time we finish an episode, my
wife and I have to download for like ten minutes. Okay,
what do you think what is this supposed to be
an allegory for what do we? I mean, listen, that's
kind of hot talk we have in my house. What
do you think he's trying to say with these you know,
(08:43):
these people who survived what becomes this mind meld virus.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I saw an article this morning.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I don't I've only watched one episode of it, and
I didn't know enough to click, but it was something
to the effect of Pluribus is not a show about
aliens so fi sci fi.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
It's about something else.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Very much so. And that's what that. I like that kind.
I like that kind of a show every once in
a while. I don't like them all like that. I mean,
I like everyone so I like my Landman for example,
There's none of that, no brain activity needed. But but
Plurvis is written on such a different level. I mean,
are they talking about like how we all felt during
(09:24):
COVID or are they talking about the influx of artificial
intelligence and our everyday lives. Yeah, that social media makes
us feel If you're not on social media, you feel
a part but also more human than other people.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Like there's there's a lot, that's a lot of levels.
I don't like to work that hard.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
When I watched TV, but I saw a friend of
mine said that the first half of that first episode
is not fun. I mean it is. It is creepy,
it's disturbing. What happens in that first thirty minutes of
that first episode is uncomfortable to watch. Yeah, and I
remember thinking to myself, I don't I don't know if
(10:05):
I want to watch this. I don't want to do
multiple episodes kind.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Of where I'm at, because the whole episode for me
was I get okay, cool, and it's well done and
it's well acted, but I'm like, eh, am I really
in the mood for this.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Second episode has laughlines in it. Third episode gets into
more the esoteric levels of kind of what's going on,
what's really going on?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
To stick with the Simon col reality fodder, I guess over.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Here in dumb dumb Land, you also saw Sean Combs
The Reckoning, This is the this is the documentary on Diddy,
put Together man By among others, put together by Fitty Scent.
He did an interview on Sherry. We watched Sherry in
here because it's on the.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Actually we saw him on Sherry.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
He said he has about one hundred and fifty hours
of footage that did not make it into the documentary.
He said, I don't understand why he feels himself, but
I'm glad he filmed himself. The people supporting him will
be very quiet when more comes out.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
He may just put it on YouTube. But it's a
four part dark documentary and it's if you kind of
it's kind of a fun you know, it's it's kind
of the way I felt about all these documentaries of
these stars like Eddie Murphy. You know, you go back
and it's kind of like walking you through history in
(11:27):
terms of music. It's not all about Diddy. It's about
the evolution of East Coast, West Coast and all of
that and early nineties stuff. So it's I just liked
the nostalgia part of it, you know, and it doesn't
get into you're not going to feel grossed out. It's
maybe a couple moments in like the last episode, where
they kind of get into it a little bit what
(11:47):
was going on, But it's more of a sociology sociology,
sociological thank you look at what made him be the
way he was and when the switch was flipped and
was he just ruthless and driven or was he a
ruthless murderer. There are bodies that have turned up around
(12:09):
Diddy throughout the years, and clearly they interviewed people with
an axe to grind, people who maybe did not get
the level of success that some of the people who
worked in his circle did, like Mary j. Blige, Joe
to see things like that, these are people who kind
of it didn't pan out for them, So you know, you.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Take it with a grain of salt, but also it's
really well.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Done in that documentary form, and it's only four episodes
about it.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I think we said forty five minutes, fifty minutes apiece,
something like that.
It is what you watch on Wednesday as well.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
The following program is brought to you in living color,

on a show like I watch it for entertainment.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
How much you're crap together? How many episodes you have left?
Speaker 5 (07:45):
One?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Oh? Okay, okay, so then it'll wrap up for you. Yeah,
pluribus on Apple TV. That's another one that's I'm I'm
really liking it because it is not just a weird show.
I mean it is a weird show.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
How many episodes into it are you.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Six or seven? Whatever? I mean, we're caught up. It
comes out every Friday. It is a Vince Gilligan is brilliant.
I mean, did a lot of the Breaking Bad and
Better Call Saul, so a lot of his kind of
tricks in terms of placement of characters, use of color,
different kinds of shots, like he's all of that stuff
(08:22):
is very Vince Gilligan. But there's messages in this that
it seems like every time we finish an episode, my
wife and I have to download for like ten minutes. Okay,
what do you think what is this supposed to be
an allegory for what do we? I mean, listen, that's
kind of hot talk we have in my house. What
do you think he's trying to say with these you know,
(08:43):
these people who survived what becomes this mind meld virus.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I saw an article this morning.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I don't I've only watched one episode of it, and
I didn't know enough to click, but it was something
to the effect of Pluribus is not a show about
aliens so fi sci fi.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
It's about something else.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Very much so. And that's what that. I like that kind.
I like that kind of a show every once in
a while. I don't like them all like that. I mean,
I like everyone so I like my Landman for example,
There's none of that, no brain activity needed. But but
Plurvis is written on such a different level. I mean,
are they talking about like how we all felt during
(09:24):
COVID or are they talking about the influx of artificial
intelligence and our everyday lives. Yeah, that social media makes
us feel If you're not on social media, you feel
a part but also more human than other people.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Like there's there's a lot, that's a lot of levels.
I don't like to work that hard.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
When I watched TV, but I saw a friend of
mine said that the first half of that first episode
is not fun. I mean it is. It is creepy,
it's disturbing. What happens in that first thirty minutes of
that first episode is uncomfortable to watch. Yeah, and I
remember thinking to myself, I don't I don't know if
(10:05):
I want to watch this. I don't want to do
multiple episodes kind.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Of where I'm at, because the whole episode for me
was I get okay, cool, and it's well done and
it's well acted, but I'm like, eh, am I really
in the mood for this.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Second episode has laughlines in it. Third episode gets into
more the esoteric levels of kind of what's going on,
what's really going on?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
To stick with the Simon col reality fodder, I guess over.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Here in dumb dumb Land, you also saw Sean Combs
The Reckoning, This is the this is the documentary on Diddy,
put Together man By among others, put together by Fitty Scent.
He did an interview on Sherry. We watched Sherry in
here because it's on the.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Actually we saw him on Sherry.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
He said he has about one hundred and fifty hours
of footage that did not make it into the documentary.
He said, I don't understand why he feels himself, but
I'm glad he filmed himself. The people supporting him will
be very quiet when more comes out.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
He may just put it on YouTube. But it's a
four part dark documentary and it's if you kind of
it's kind of a fun you know, it's it's kind
of the way I felt about all these documentaries of
these stars like Eddie Murphy. You know, you go back
and it's kind of like walking you through history in
(11:27):
terms of music. It's not all about Diddy. It's about
the evolution of East Coast, West Coast and all of
that and early nineties stuff. So it's I just liked
the nostalgia part of it, you know, and it doesn't
get into you're not going to feel grossed out. It's
maybe a couple moments in like the last episode, where
they kind of get into it a little bit what
(11:47):
was going on, But it's more of a sociology sociology,
sociological thank you look at what made him be the
way he was and when the switch was flipped and
was he just ruthless and driven or was he a
ruthless murderer. There are bodies that have turned up around
(12:09):
Diddy throughout the years, and clearly they interviewed people with
an axe to grind, people who maybe did not get
the level of success that some of the people who
worked in his circle did, like Mary j. Blige, Joe
to see things like that, these are people who kind
of it didn't pan out for them, So you know, you.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Take it with a grain of salt, but also it's
really well.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Done in that documentary form, and it's only four episodes
about it.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I think we said forty five minutes, fifty minutes apiece,
something like that.
