First things first. Kriss will probably be kicked off this podcast and removed from having editorial control over the title of episodes as well as episode art. Anyway, Star Trek Discovery Season 2 continues to be amazing and continues to surprise us. We're starting to get episodes that connect to the Short Treks from before the season as well as connecting all the previous episodes to the search for Spock & the mystery of the Red Angel. Is the Red Angel changing the past to save the future or are they CORRECTING the past to save the future? Also, episode 8 opens with a recap with the actual footage of the pilot from the Star Trek pilot? This show is really doing something special. 

Articles we also discuss on this review:

We're back to wrap up our two-part Captain Marvel series with two of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe: Monica Rambeau and Carol Danvers. These are not only some of the most power female characters in the Marvel stable but two of the most powerful characters ever. We start first with Monica Rambeau, the first black female character to become a member of the Avengers. While Monica has never really had her own on-going solo series, she played a significant role on the Avengers in the 80's (even becoming Chairwoman of the group). Then we move onto the life of Carol Danvers. With the launch of Ms. Marvel in 1977, Carol not only gets super powers  but becomes Marvel's feminist icon answer to DC's Wonder Woman. Unfortunately an extremely poor decision to have Carol raped (even though the book is written as if she's not) really sets the character back. Chris Claremont takes Carol back and brings her into his X-Men book which starts Carol on her long, slow return to prominence and eventually taking the tile of Captain Marvel.

Coming next month, the original Captain Marvel from Fawcett/DC: Shazam!

Look there was full intention to take this week off, but when a billionaire gets caught in SUCH A WAY, I have to jump in front of a microphone. Unfortuantely, the only guest I could get on such short notice was Nata, but we cover the in's and out's of this Kraft news we talk about the Steelers hustling backwards to keep a meh QB happy, Zion's shoes and future, MLB not wanting to be a real sport and all the NBA news and rumors.

Another week in the books, another opportunity for me to re-write the UDPod Rundown repeatedly. Hell, by the time we recorded this, my entire initial rundown was laughing at me. Come for an oh-too-brief breakdown of the All Star festivities and stay for literally everything else that happened this week, from Colin getting paid to whatever the hell this is Kevin Durant.

Star Trek Discovery Season 2 continues to be a great season. We have so much to discuss, laugh about, cry about and celebrate. What more could we ask for for these last 3 episodes?

Topics:

  • The show keeping the Star Trek exploring elements while still working towards the search for Spock
  • Episode 4 is Saru's "Flu Game"
  • If you don't want us to think about what Kelpien tastes like, don't put Saru on a bed of lettuce
  • L'Rell and the Klingons are getting closer to the Klingons we know and we like how they're doing it
  • Emperor Georgiou back...and now she's a member of Section 31
  • Ash Tyler has the worst life ever
  • Tilly & her imaginary friend
  • Dr. Hugh Culber is officially back. Stamets' man returns and so does the most loving relationship on the show
  • and much much more!

We love this show so much and we can't wait to see where they go next.

We're finally back to review the last 4 episodes of season 2 of The Gifted (episodes 10 - 13) and...we're out of pocket almost immediately into the episode. Dpalm takes a moment to gloat about how unredeemable and evil Jace Turner (aka Evil Ass Cory Booker) is. Jace is so evil even Kriss' Villain Agenda has denounced him. And the episode goes downhill from there:

  • The optics and way this show handled Jace & race was perfect
  • Andy's dick is still not his friend 
  • Lauren getting drawn to the dark side and Kate is NOT helping
  • Lorna's crazy ass is really bad at being undercover
  • Erg aka Not-Bishop puts John in his place then steals his girl
  • Reeva hires terrorist mutants and his working with not-Bill O'Reilly...what is her plan?

And there's more! Give it a listen & let us know what you think of this season so far.

Arrow is back and we're jumping right into it like it never left. Not gonna lie, they've nailed Amell's fighting style to the point that Sea Shimooka is doing a great job emulate it as Emiko Queen. The show is also doing a good job of maintaining multiple threads:

  • Emiko and Rene working together
  • Felicity breaking the news to Oliver that he has a sister (and Oliver having to come to terms with that)
  • Diggle getting into hot water with Lyla 
  • What we see happening in the future with Rene "Trump"

There's a lot to like this episode. Just like The Flash, its clear that Amell was put on ice a bit this episode because he was shooting for the crossover but the writing handles it pretty well with him dealing with the reveal that he has a sister while Emiko and Rene handle the heavy lifting. The one issue we take (and this is no fault of the show) is the RIDICULOUS rules that WB puts on the Arrowverse shows. Ghost Initiative? IT'S THE SUICIDE SQUAD. You've called it that before. What are we doing?

Listen to our review and let us know what you think. Kriss also has a theory that the seasons of Arrow are at their best depending on how bad the wigs are. Rene's future wig might raise Season 7 up the ranks using that theory.

Oliver wants to get back to work and focus on his marriage, but Dinah wants him to track the new Green Arrow; Diggle and Lyla must answer to ARGUS about Diaz.

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this week's dose of insanity in the world. This week he's joined by Rod (@RodimusPrime) from The Black Guy Who Tips and Jeff (@JeffJSays) from For All Nerds. 

Before we get into this episode though we (Kriss, Rod & Jeff) would like to formally & publicly apologize and retract all the things we said in this episode that might upset someone of the talcum powder complexion and get them to want to seek legal action against us from their 2 - 4 person legal team. We are sorry if you found anything we said problematic and upsetting.  

Topics:

  • Shaun King threatens legal action against black activists and journalists (we apologize)
  • Justice Together Directors say Shaun King is full of shit (we apologize)
  • Shaun King's wife says she's a black woman and to believe her...and explains why they decided not to sue white supremacists (we apologize)
  • The Gillette ad has men showing their asses 
  • Great Moments in White Privilege

Do you all really expect us to review this episode or do you just want us to laugh at how ridiculously awesome it was? Custodians of Chronology, Sirens of Space Time and Puppets of Tomorrow. I mean seriously, what are we supposed to do with this? No other show leans into the ridiculousness as much as Legends of Tomorrow does and by being so self aware, it's truly become on of the best shows on TV. Our only complaint? We have to wait until April for more episodes.

Kriss and Dpalm review the latest episode of Arrow Season 7: Due Process. Felicity keeps going done a dark path, Diaz has some words with Anatoly and look at Earth 2 Laurel trying to be a hero (and a DA). We also are intrigued by the glimpses of the future and what it means for the end game of Arrow. We're also planting our stake in Roy being the man under the hood in the present day.

Oh and we told you not to trust Stanley. 

Slabside becomes even more dangerous after a guard is murdered and everyone is a suspect. Felicity enlists help from a surprising source in her pursuit of Diaz, and Laurel flexes her muscles as the District Attorney.

Kriss, Brandon and Ro discuss Green Book and the controversy surrounding it. Is it a white savior film? Does it water down racism? We think Green Book is definitely a film audiences should check out. It's not a perfect film and probably would be better (or at least delve more into Dr. Don Shirley's personal life) if it had a black director. But it's definitely not a comedy and it doesn't make the racism of the 60's easier to swallow.

A working-class Italian-American bouncer becomes the driver of an African-American classical pianist on a tour of venues through the 1960s American South.

Black Lightning 2x01 - The Book of Consequences: Chapter One: Rise of the Green Light Babies

Black Lightning returns with a special guest filled premiere episode. As Jennifer struggles with her ever-growing powers, Jefferson and Lynn try to regain their positions in the aftermath of the attack on the school and the reveal of the ASA's child experimentation. Anissa, always the activist, wants to help the families of the "greenlight babies" who need legal representation to fight the police brutality and the government who wants to sweep their experiments under the rug.

On this week's podcast we discuss these long titles (look there are two colons, that's just grammatically incorrect), green light babies vs. crack babies, the guest appearances of venerable Black actors like Bill Duke and Robert Townsend, and Anissa continuing to be the most extra superhero to walk the streets of Freeland.

I know why you’re all here. Laughing at my pain is basically a pastime here at UDPod, but I’ve got to be honest: you’re gonna have to wait for it. Shanna is here this week, and as a non-sports fan she didn’t troll me like she could have. Instead, we talked Simone Biles, the homie Khabib, and Jimmy bleeping Butler.

The Doctor is back!

Season 11 started off with a new, wittier, and more inclusive tone!  Twelve remains my favorite Doctor, but Jodie Whittaker's first outing as our favorite Gallifreyan is making me a believer in her as a potential runner up to my favorite.  She portrays the Doctor with a combination of Capaldi's wit and Smith's wonder, leading me to believe that she is the 13th version of those characters.   This episode is told from the perspective of Ryan Sinclair, a 19 year old who we see trying to learn to ride a bike.  We are quickly introduced to the Doctor's future companions, Yasmin Khan and Graham, Ryan's step grandfather.  The premiere gets dark (the villain wears the molars of his victims as trophies-IN HIS FACE), and we meet and lose quickly Ryan's amazing grandmother Grace, who spends the episode showing why we should always believe in and trust Black women. However, her fate is the one trope-filled decision we cold have done without.   Join us as we chat up episode 1.  Future episodes will come in three episode batches at least once a month until we reach the Christmas episode.

We tried y'all.  We really did.  The series final episodes had a lot of filler, some great character moments, and set up something promising-and then wimped out in the end.  We discuss why 12 Monkeys did not live up to the promise of the first season, and the problem with comaparing apples and avocados.  We also discuss the problem with current fandom, particularly individuals being upset that not everyone likes the same thing, and how liking something doesn't make it good.

We're continuing our Summer of Character Corner expansions with a new Character Corner/Comic Book Book Club hybrid. We're kicking off our discussion of Jonathan Hickman's Marvel run by discussing his wonderful Fantastic Four Run. Hickman fundamentally changed the Marvel Universe, starting in 2009 with Secret Warriors all the way through the 2015 Secret Wars. We'll be revisiting Secret Wars (And S.H.I.E.L.D.) next month and wrapping up with Avengers/New Avengers/Secret Wars. But we decided to start with Fantastic Four since the founding family of Marvel will be returning with their own solo book written by Dan Slott next month. Also, we've referenced this run a lot (From our Doctor Doom Part 3 to Black Panther to our Premium New Avengers/Secret Wars Comic Book Book Clubs) but we've never sat down and made it our focus. That changes now.

Kriss, The Doctor, and Rod from The Black Guy Who Tips discuss season 1 of a show that was done criminally wrong by SyFy. The Doctor decided to rewatch the movie and tries (unsuccessfully) to make a case as to why the movie is not so bad in concert with the show. We also discuss the diversity of characters, including strong women characters, the complexity of the relationships, daddy issues, and why Dominion is the show that ruined Buffy's Giles for us. Take a listen and then watch the show if you haven't yet!

We will be back for a review of season 2 on the premium feed!

Hiroja and The Doctor are back for the series finale of 12 Monkeys.  This season picks up where the last one left off with our team fighting for their survival as Olivia, revealing herself as the true witness, attempts to eliminate them completely.  Using the technology that apparently was available in the facility the entire time, they splinter a portion of the facility to a new location.  Originally they think they've only moved in space, but it turns out they've created a T.A.R.D.I.S. and have also gone back in time to the very beginning of season 1.

Yes, it's just as ridiculous as it sounds.  This show is leaning in to the whole idea of "to hell with our own rules and mythology, let's just throw something at the wall and see if it sticks."  The first six episodes as reviewed here have some great moments.  After all, Cassie's face when Jennifer tells her and Cole to do "butt stuff only" is priceless.   The opening sequence of the first episode is well done, and the actors are wonderful in their roles.  In a show though where they keep breaking the rules they've made in the same episode and where there is nothing but a loop of time, it starts to get long and drawn out for no reason.  We discuss here what worked for the first half of the last season, what didn't work, and where the show appears to be heading next.  We also rant a bit about why SyFy refuses to embrace their heritage and allow their SCIENCE FICTION SHOWS TO BE GREAT!

What a difference a day makes! It feels like every 24 hours, the sports landscape changes, and we do our best to catch up with it all. From Bryan Colangelo's burner accounts to the NFL being reminded that you cannot placate a psychopath the past week has had it all. Serena Williams put her domination of Maria Sheradopa on a brief hiatus, and this reporting on Ole Miss and the NCAA is a must read: Crooked Letters, brought to you by SBNation.

Structurally, this is a good episode. The stakes were high and the action was good. But we can't help but wonder why all the sudden ARGUS's hands are tied because of red tape and how the Quadrant became so weak compared to Diaz. Also, while we appreciate Oliver's growth, it's getting a bit annoying that the problems with Diaz were literally caused by everyone else. 

Also, if you haven't read the Green Arrow Rebirth arc, you really should.

Diaz targets Team Arrow and their loved ones. Oliver struggles with Felicity putting herself in danger when she gets the chance to stop Diaz for good.

Put Star City in rice folks. The entire city is corrupt. So much so we don't know if there are any solutions for Oliver in how he can fix this. I mean the entire police department (minus like 5 people), the DA and now even the City Council are all in Diaz's pocket. Maybe it's time for a Malcolm Merlyn style "undertaking" to just wipe out the entire city and start again.

This episode was pretty good. Ignoring the issue that both Arrow and The Flash have with season structure, this episode was able to have Oliver confront his choices and failings without having it feel like he's regressing. And even then, it showed that not all of the things that have happened have been his fault (Laurel & Renee ain't on Oliver). It still remains to be seen if they can stick the landing for the season.

In his darkest place yet, Oliver wonders if he has failed at everything; Oliver lashes out at Felicity and William; a surprising visit from an old friend has Oliver questioning his next move.

But, I got to pitch a fix for next years picks that might make EVERYTHING a bit more interesting. Plus, we got to break down the forthcoming NBA awards, and pick our way to this years NBA Champion.

*I read the wrong episode number/title/synopsis at the beginning of this episode. I read the one for 15 not 16*

Here's the scary thing about Agents of SHIELD right now: Since the team has come back into the present, despite everything that's happened, the end of the world is still on track here. Jemma and Elena might think they're invincible but the truth is, no one on the team has ever really sat down and talked about everything they know about the future. To be fair, there's been a lot going on and they've been going from one fire to another. But at some point, they need to brain dump everything they know. Because right now this rogue team, plus Daisy bringing Robin into the fold, is just keeping the clock ticking down for the end of the world.

Also, poor young Strucker is thinking with the wrong body part when it comes to Ruby, who seems to be a little too enthusiastic about being the "Destroyer of Worlds". 

Coulson is forced to team up with unlikely allies to save the world, while his team try to track him down and rescue him.

The trailer for Blockers doesn’t do the film justice. While the promos for this film make it seem like Leslie Mann, John Cena and Ike Barinholtz are the focus and stars of the film, it’s really the young actresses (Kathyrn Newton, Gerladine Vsiwanathan and Gideon Adlon)who play their daughters who are the standouts. This film proves you can make a raunchy, edgy coming-of-age comedy without being super problematic or focused on dudebros. If Blockers was made 10 years ago, it would have been super white, super male and aged incredibly poorly like most comedies of this time. Instead, Kay Cannon’s film is pretty diverse, inclusive and turns most of the dudebro comedy tropes we’ve seen before on their head.

Think about it. We’ve seen plenty of films where young male high school students decided that “this is the night” they lose their virginity. But we’ve never seen it from a teen girl perspective. At least not done this well. In this film, the girls are all the aggressive ones with their dates for prom going along with their plan. While yes, the parents are frantically (and hilariously) trying to stop their daughters from going along with this pact, the focus is really about young girls exploring their own sexuality and forming their own decisions about what they want to do with their bodies. Gerladine Vsiwanathan is the standout star here. She's the "Tomboy" of the trio and makes most of the crass jokes but they're hilarious, well timed and she plays off of John Cena extremely well in their scenes together.

Even the parents buck some trends we normally see. Leslie Mann plays the overprotective single mom whose real issue is, she doesn’t want to let go of her daughter. This is typically the father role in most films. John Cena is the straight-laced sports dad, but he’s also a pushover and a stay-at-home dad whose wife is the breadwinner. Barinholtz is the “problematic” dad but even his character has a few progressive traits, like the fact that he’s figured out that his daughter is gay and just wants her to feel free enough live her truth.

Like I said, this is a film that from the trailers a lot of people might avoid but that would be a mistake. This is a smart, funny, progressive film that honestly probably makes a great case for why feminism and allowing women the ability to be free and open about their sexuality is good for everyone.

Three parents try to stop their daughters from having sex on Prom night.

Legends of Tomorrow handles it's ensemble cast so well. This episode basically breaks out into three separate stores: Zari teaching Mick how to use his Totem, Sara & Ray going to find Ava and Wally, Nate & Amaya dealing with saving Amaya's grand daughter and getting her totem back. All three storylines are fairly separate from each other but they work so well. It gives a great mix of fun, serious and relevant to the overall story. Oh and Mick Rory is still a national treasure.

Listen as Kriss & Dpalm discuss this latest episode, I Ava.

Sara and Ray set out to find Ava when she disappears and Time Bureau agent Gary reveals a disturbing truth about her.

After all these years it’s good to have Star Trek back on TV (well…sort of). On this Super Tuesday Recap episode we’re reviewing the first three episodes of Star Trek: Discovery (The Vulcan Hello, Battle at the Binary Stars, Context is for Kings). It’s a fun episode that you’re going to want to check out!

Topics

  • Our thoughts on the three episodes so far and the direction the series is going
  • The blend of action and staying true to the exploration/science aspect of Star Trek
  • The one nitpick: They gotta stop doing prequel Star Trek shows. The technology is way too advanced
  • How Sonequa Martin-Green’s Michael Burnham takes aspects from both Kirk and Spock
  • Is Captain Lorca a sociopath? He seems to lack a care for the lives of his crew (and others). How will that play with Burnham who committed mutiny in order to save hers. How will Saru handle this?
  • Cadet 53% Tilly
  • The look of the Klingons and why maybe Star Fleet should have just left them alone
  • The stupid decisions CBS is making with Discovery being only available through CBS All Access in the states

We’ll be back in a few weeks to review the next 3 episodes of Star Trek: Discovery. Make sure you subscribe to Super Tuesday Recap on iTunes/Stitcher/Google so you don’t miss an episode.

We’re back with another Character Corner and this time we’re covering the Inhumans. First off, let’s make it clear that we’re mainly focused on the Royal Family of the Inhumans. The “Nuhumans” or the Inhumans created on earth due to the Terrigen bomb that Black Bolt sets off during the events of Infinity are definitely a separate category. We might cover some of the more famous “Nuhumans” in a later episode. But for this, we’re focused mostly on the Royals

Kriss and Dpalm are back and Agents of SHIELD is still so good. It is at its best when it is being a spy show and the addition of LMDs really add to the spy elements. In Wake Up, we spend a lot of time trying to figure out who the other LMD is that Radcliffe created and it makes you suspicious of a lot of folks. And by the end of the episode, there are still questions as to who is real and who isn't. 

We also talk about the Batman/Flash Rebirth crossover that will deal with the Watchmen, The Flash movie being reset again, Coates and The Crew and why Marvel matters.

Time to review the final Comic Book Movie of 2016, Doctor Strange. We not only review this film but talk about some of the controversy surrounding it and how the film tries to address that. Some of it works, some of it doesn't. But there's a lot to work with here and visually, its one of the most stunning comic book films to date. Give our review a listen.

Phenom & Kriss review The Legend of Tarzan, starring Alexander Skarsgard & Margot Robbie. Ponder this: In 2016, someone approved doing a live action Tarzan movie and didn't think about the racial optics of the whole thing. They spent money on this. Probably could have spent the money on better things.

The Flash is back from its break with a new episode, Trajectory. This episode was basically the D.A.R.E. episode of Flash but good. We also get some reveals about Zoom, Jesse settles into Earth-2 and Iris might get a new love interest?

Kriss, Phenom, Rod & Sterling discuss episode 3 of Season 2 of Telltale Game's the Walking Dead.  We discuss how much we dislike the adults in the episode, how strong Clementine is, how we feel about Sara & how we treated her as well as some of the new characters that were introduced.  We also discuss differences that happened based off decisions we made in the previous episode.  If  you made a different choice than us or had different characters due to choices you made in previous episodes or the 400 Days DLC, leave us a comment and we'll read it on the next episode of The Playing Dead.
