Oh no the name stays! It’s just fun to call ourselves the Watch podcast unofficially haha!

I may try that! I imagine I’ll have to do some editing to make the sentences extra long so that I run out of breath but he end of them like I normally do! Thanks!

You’re the man, man! Thanks for those! Yeah we’re finding most of the webisodes we find are very low quality.

Still surprised they didn’t put all of these on the box sets. Such a weird decision. It’s like they chose every other webisode and skipped the others.

Oh man, yeah, ireactions and TF those are both great theories! And that article does clear it up. I had not seen that one.

In our latest discussion we did talk about what Magic said about the gentle nudge and that fits in with the quantum limbo reactions mentioned. And yes the safety protocols we discussed in our last discussion too and like you TF we theorized that means he is in much greater danger than Sam was. It also fits with the old series having safeties and yeah, for sure, when those times happened where Sam began to merge and forget himself could be the result of the safeties getting a bit loose at times.

Nice theories and thanks for the help all! This will definitely make it into our next episode! We haven't put them out just yet because I needed a week off for the GallifreyOne convention and Cory needs a week off for something he has going on. So we were delaying them just a few weeks but they should start showing up soon.

Oh, and Ib, I will say that if you haven't seen it yet, it's the old formula from the original but mixed in with a story arc for the future timeline as well, which... means something has to give. We get a little less time with the people Ben leaps into, which makes me feel a little less connected, but the mystery of the present timeline is keeping me intrigued.

Hilarious, my friend! I'll be 68! But a promise is a promise hahah!

Yeah I am excited to go back to this. I watched pretty regularly but eventually drifted off at some point before it ended. And it’s literally been 2 and a half decades since I saw it so I don’t exactly have the greatest of recall of how it all went.

I do think this show could do quite well today if they rebooted it. I love the idea of integrating real history with ufo history.

Yeah that makes sense! I’ve never seen the show really so I’m not sure what I’m in for!

I had to jump in here because I love the Orville! Yeah that episode was definitely possible in a Sliders-verse. I could actually see Clevant in my head playing the scientist part and trying to get out of the mess he got into.

When I first saw the promos for the show, I too thought, oh it's Galaxy Quest from Seth. That's how they cut those promos. When I watched the first episode though, I was blown away.

First, I thought it was only going to be a half hour. The trailers made me think it was another McFarlane romp into goofiness and toilet humor.

Second, it felt like in sooooo many ways, as you said, The Next Generation. Although the ship designs and uniforms were different, the world itself feels like TNG, which is on purpose of course seeing as Seth is a huge Trek fan himself.

Third, the humor, while referencing OUR society so much, felt natural to me. It makes me think back to TNG and how in so many situations, every crew member acted like a perfect example of humanity in the future. They all did their duty, never complained about their shifts or officers, always had a complete understanding of the technical puzzles or problems that cropped up, etc. the Orville gang feel like people I could know right now.

For example, I thought about it. If I was on a ship, responsible for flying through space, for an 8 hour shift, I would defiantly want a soda. Maybe a bag of jerky too. And why NOT do some bingeing of a favorite sitcom or show as well? The little things they throw in like that make me feel like it's TNG with a group of people plucked from our present. I love that!

Fourth, they aren't afraid to do real sci fi type topics, just like TNG would. They do shows that metaphorically comment on current issues in our world. It makes for an enjoyable hour of TV. Much more than if it had been all dick and fart jokes and fourth wall breaking jokes.

From what I understand the ratings for it have been good for fox, especially once they count the delayed viewings in. It has been consistently at the top of their lists, hovering around the second position, so I'm hopeful it will be renewed. It really deserves it.

So check it out guys! Episode one AND two of our Flash 90 Rewatch!

We'd love to hear from ya all and let's face it, you need something to hold you over until the Flash is back in October so join us, won't you, and Rewatch John Wesley Shipp in his original iconic role! Use the phone number at Golden Spiral Media or post here and  let's hear your thoughts on the episodes too.

I'm actually very impressed so far with the stories and all. I was worried but I'm loving it!

I had never heard of that other pilot either! I'm kind of glad they never made it. It really sounded less like Flash and more look like some Quantum leap redux.

Oh it's not hard to track down the episodes at all. I had the dvd set for a long time now. Easy! Haha!

I know there are some episodes out there on Daily Motion. It might take some searching to find them all. Just a quick search I did right now resulted in about 7 or 8 episodes so it's possible the rest are in there too. You never know how long they'll stay up though so sights like keepvid would be useful for downloading offline.

I know we have a local used bookstore that carries used DVDs and video games and other items as well. I know the Flash series was there for really cheap too at one time. Maybe see if you have a similar store nearby maybe? Or libraries are sometimes surprisingly. My local library is how I've been finding out Doctor Who episodes. They seem to have a pretty big collection of all the old series.

Finally Amazon has the season for digital download for just $15. A decent price considering its 22 episodes total!  It doesn't appear to be streaming anywhere for free just yet though.

Unfortunately not. Cory actually does a Doctor Who podcast already with some others called the Pod Doctors and while they cover the new episodes as they air, he wanted the Rewatch Podxast to focus on shows that arent ongoing.

For example: he had thought that we might do a Twin Peaks Rewatch but then when they announced the sequels episodes, doing a Rewatch of it would mean we would cover the new episode as well, changing it from a Rewatch.

I'd love to do a Who podcast myself but again the problem would be TIME! If I only had a Tardis...

Thanks RC_L! Yeah the podcast and real life keep me busy! Plus, I have suddenly become a huge Doctor Who fan. BingeWatched the whole reboot from 2005 onto the present day in the last six months, enough to get caught up and buy the season pass for the current season AND see the premier episode in theatres. Now I'm into the Classic Who as well, starting my own Rewatch with the original 1963 Season 1!

Oh you two, settle down now! Hahah

There it is!

For some reason the links to the full images get distorted and sometimes rotated but you get the point.

Oh and here is my Starlord cosplay from 2015, the first time I tried to cosplay EVER. Not the easiest one to start with for sure.

The mask I created on top of an iron man talking mask. I removed the blue lenses and cut off the sides and top and back, using craft foam to make new sides and a back. The big pipes near the cheek bones are small bits and pieces of threaded PVC pipes, spray painted. The small bent pipes are actually bendy straws. The group of three pipes together are cut up glue sticks. The ear pieces are backs of push lights I got from the .99 store. The eye rings are sawed off PVC pipes and the red lenses inside are cut from a clear Rubbermaid lid. The piece below the mouth grille is actually Mr Potato Head Optimus Prime's mouth turned upside down and trimmed a little.

Just gonna repost this here too, in case anyone misses it in the other thread....

Hasn't been too much interest here in the new Rewatch, but if you are interested in hearing our special guest, iReactions, check out our discussion of the season 1 finale of Lois and Clark!

Go check out Barbarian House, complete with his guest appearance!

Link will be coming up soon. Had a tech difficulty.

For those of you who don't have the Lois and Clark DVDs, but still want to participate with us in the Rewatch, a Google search has turned up this: http://watchseries.cr/series/lois-clark … n/season/1
It's a bit buggy to use on my phone but doable. I've searched around and found some other you tube videos as well for episodes. Some however have static advertisements on the borders, with the main Lois and Clark episode scrunched up in the center. It's not great but again, it can work for those of you who want to follow along. First, try the site above though.

And then join us in the other thread that we have dedicated to L&C! See you there!

For those of you who don't have the DVDs, a Google search has turned up this: http://watchseries.cr/series/lois-clark … n/season/1

Yeah that's the sucky thing: it's not streaming. Years ago it used to be on Netflix but has long since been removed. I know Cory got a set of all four seasons on DVD for $25 online somewhere. As for me, I owned them for years. Other than that, there's no easy way. It's possible you might find some episodes on YouTube or other dark back roads of the Internet....

Thanks Cabbie! How could we not pay tribute to Ib? He's helped us so much. I hope we find another "Ib" for Lois and Clark but behind the scenes stuff and deleted premises and such are hard to come by. Not as much stuff out there like there is for sliders!

We would totally love that! Someone get on the horn to Torme!

Awesome! We guessed right!
