The Sebastian Maniscalco Controversy AND Digger!

The TV Show ·

2026/10/07

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss the crazy controversy going on with Sebastian Maniscalco. He recently took over Sirius/XM’s Raw Dog comedy channel and immediately revamped it to only feature famous comedians, meaning around 500 working comics just lost a LOT of income. You know where Jay stands on this, but what do Angelo and Rhea think?! Then: Digger flopped bigger than any other movie in decades. The Gang does an analysis of what went wrong PLUS Jay has his review...

Why does Gen Z love horror movies so much!?

The TV Show ·

2026/10/01

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss Primetime and just what a weird movie experience it is. Both Jay and Angelo liked it, but less as a telling of Chris Hanson's life, and more for Robert Pattinson's stellar performance and the weird, horror flourishes that the movie takes in the last third. This leads to a discussion about Gen Z and their love of horror and why that might be. THEN, it's a discussion of the ghoulish new Willy Wonka gameshow and how it is...

Who Was The Best Athlete to Ever Host SNL!?

The TV Show ·

2026/09/24

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss the premier episode of SNL and the fact that Jalen Brunson will be hosting. Lorne Michaels has said that the best non-actors to host the show are usually athletes, because they know how to perform under pressure, but that doesn't pass the sniff test so far as Angelo is concerned. To his mind, there are only THREE athletes who were ever good on that show... can you make a guess as to which three? THEN, Donald Trump has had ...

Was John Mulaney the ONLY good thing about the Emmys?!

The TV Show ·

2026/09/17

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea and Jay are BACK to discuss a lackluster Emmys that seemingly had only ONE breakout moment with John Mulaney’s hilarious introduction to the Best Actor in a Drama category. Ratings were down huge and the gang discusses whether the awards show is dead. THEN: sideline reporters seem to have only one mandate: look good and find out next to ZERO information. Do they still have a place on TV? Did they ever? All that PLUS: Primetime, British Corner, Tony, and...

Entourage is BACK!?!

The TV Show ·

2026/09/10

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are BACK to discuss the new Betr commercial that stars Jeremy Piven and Adrian Grenier as characters that are exactly like Ari Gold and Vincent Chase who, for legal reasons, can't actually be called by those names. The creator of Entourage, Doug Ellin went onto Twitter to vent his frustration at characters that he created being used without his permission and the gang discusses the ethics of who owns TV characters 20-something years after their cul...

Howard Stern is coming to HBO Max!?

The TV Show ·

2026/09/03

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss a guy who they've all interacted with at various points: Howard Stern. Angelo and Rhea used to compete against him in the Philadelphia market, and Jay used to write for him. Now comes word that he's taking what's left of his Sirius/XM show and turning it into a TV show on HBOMax and the gang is split on whether this is a good idea. THEN: Jay has seen Coyote vs. Acme and, uh... could David Zaslav have been right, actually? ...

Remembering Dolly Parton

The TV Show ·

2026/08/27

Send us Fan Mail Angelo is BACK to join Rhea and Jay for a discussion about Dolly Parton's legacy and about how her rise to fame took place at a very particular place in TV history that could never be replicated today. THEN, the gang discusses Coyote v. Acme, the new movie... from 2022, rescued from the clutches of podcast villain, David Zaslov. The question? When suits try to stifle creativity, do we, as a viewing audience, have a moral obligation to support the work of those cre...

Who Belongs in the TV Hall of Fame?!

The TV Show ·

2026/08/19

Send us Fan Mail Angelo is on assignment, so it’s only Jay and Rhea this week to discuss the new inductees to the TV Hall of Fame. But what’s MORE interesting is the people NOT in the Hall… Jerry Seinfeld, Tina Fey, and… DAVID LETTERMAN?! How is that POSSIBLE?! THEN: Nielsen has revealed the top 20 most streamed shows of 2026 and, like, half of them are OLD SHOWS. Why are people uninterested in “Prestige TV” in favor of reruns of Friends? ALL THAT PLUS: British Corner, more on Ted Lasso...

Wait, the Girl From Harry Potter is Doing WHAT?!

The TV Show ·

2026/08/12

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss a truly bizarre story. Jessie Cave played a significant role in the Harry Potter movies and she recently revealed that she made more money on an adult website in one year than she did in her entire time in the movies. She joined Drea DeMateo and Jamie Presley, both doing the same thing as her. The gang discusses whether this is empowerment or a sign that there’s less money in acting than we thought (or both!) THEN: Ricky Gervais...

Spider-Man DEFEATS The Avengers!!

The TV Show ·

2026/08/05

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to talk about Spider-Man’s absolutely earth-shattering box office and whether or not it deserves all that attention. Rhea has seen it and has a review! Then: it’s the results of our “pick a show for the other two to watch” experiment and the results… aren’t pretty. In retrospect maybe Jay should have reconsidered his Rick and Morty choice! All that PLUS: British corner, Hawai’i, Angelo strikes out, and much MUCH more! MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR SPON...

Is Tom Holland a Movie Star?!

The TV Show ·

2026/07/29

Send us Fan Mail Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set to make ALL of the money this weekend, just a few days removed from The Odyssey also making ALL of the money. Both movies star Tom Holland and Zendaya, but what’s amazing is that while the entire world is convinced Zendaya is a capital-M MOVIE STAR, the jury is still out on Tom Holland. The gang discusses why that might be and what it is that differentiates a good actor from a star. THEN: LeBron James is coming to The Sixers, which inspires An...

Will IMAX save movies!?

The TV Show ·

2026/07/23

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back, and this week they're leading with a number Hollywood can't stop staring at: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey stormed to a $264 million worldwide opening, and it's the first movie in history shot ENTIRELY on IMAX cameras. IMAX posted a record $52 million opening weekend and grabbed nearly a quarter of the entire domestic box office — the third-best share ever, behind only Nolan's own Interstellar and Oppenheimer. Is all-IMAX the future of movies...

2026/07/16

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back, and this week they're leading with a number that should scare every studio in Hollywood: Curry Barker was 26 when he made the horror movie Obsession for three-quarters of a million dollars. It's now closing in on half a BILLION worldwide. When they asked him what studios should know about Gen Z, his answer was blunt: "We're tired of slop, and we want good original movies back." Is the audience finally dragging Hollywood back to good stories, we...

Everything You Love Is Disappearing!!

The TV Show ·

2026/07/09

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back — and this week they pull Philly sports legend Glen MacNow into the chair for an episode built on a genuinely scary idea: the shows and movies you love can just… disappear. They lead with the number Netflix would rather bury: its biggest hits are hemorrhaging 30 to 70 percent of their audience by season two. Beef won a pile of Emmys and then lost 70% of its viewers. A Good Girl's Guide to Murder dropped 80%. The theory? Netflix trained us to bin...

Why did Spielberg's latest movie FALL OFF A CLIFF!?

The TV Show ·

2026/06/25

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss Steven Spielberg falling off a cliff. Disclosure Day scored a huge opening weekend — $44 million domestic, $92.8 million worldwide, bigger than E.T., Saving Private Ryan, or The Fabelmans — and then dropped a staggering 62% in weekend two, landing a soft B CinemaScore on a $115 million budget that now needs to claw its way toward $300 million just to break even. Angelo reviews it, then discusses what went wrong. THEN: YouTube wiped ou...

Byron Allen is SUFFOCATING CBS!!

The TV Show ·

2026/06/18

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss Byron Allen's DISASTROUS start at CBS. Viewership cratered 77%, from Colbert's 2.69 million average all the way down to 628,000. And the damage isn't staying in late night. People fall asleep with the TV on and wake up on the same channel. Colbert was feeding CBS local news. CBS local news was feeding CBS This Morning. Byron Allen just cut that pipeline. THEN: The Knicks just won their first championship since 1973, and Ga...

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back and this week Hugh Laurie said the quiet part out loud, and the internet still hasn't recovered. After a freelance critic named Janet Murray posted on X that House has "the same narrative every episode," Laurie responded with a thread so sarcastic it went viral — cataloguing every alternative structure they tried, comparing the formula to Bach and Frida Kahlo, and closing with "I look forward to your first novel." The internet mobbed Murray imme...

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back — and this week there are three numbers that have shaken Hollywood to its core: $81 million, $100 million, and $52 million. That's what three YouTube kids just grossed at the box office... a 20-year-old with Backrooms, a 26-year-old who turned $750K into Obsession's biggest second-weekend spike in modern box office history, and Markiplier, who walked out of a gaming channel and grossed $52 million on $3 million.

Trying Too Hard: Colbert's Messy Goodbye, Star Wars'...

The TV Show ·

2026/05/28

Send us Fan Mail Angelo, Rhea, and Jay — and they're leading with a question nobody in late night wants to answer: what happens when you spend your final week trying to "kill it" instead of doing what made the show great? Stephen Colbert's finale gave Billy Crystal, Ben Stiller, and Robert De Niro thirty seconds each, closed with green screen gimmicks, and ended with an 83-year-old Paul McCartney — who can't hit the notes anymore — turning off the lights on 11 years of television. Angelo, who...
