  • Occasional Randomness #35 - Secret Lairs All The Way Down (Daredevil: Born Again S1E4-6)
    2025/04/19

    We continue through the amazing season 1 of Daredevil: Born Again with episodes 4 - 6. We're obviously still enjoying it as you might guess. And it only took almost 5 more episodes before we got to see Matt suit up in costume again. We guess you can only keep a hero down for so long before they have to finally take action. We discuss Fisk's ultimate motives being mayor and enjoy him trying to navigate his new politicial world. We can't wait for the showdown with the Anti-Vigilante Task Force and how many vigilantes they might be up against. Cameos, anyone? And what is it with secret lairs? Everyone seems to have one.

  • Occasional Randomness #34 - Mystic Amulets Get No Respect (Daredevil: Born Again S1E1-3)
    2025/03/28

    This time around we talk about the first third of the new Marvel Disney+ series, Daredevil: Born Again, episodes 1 - 3. We both thought Daredevil was the best of the old Netflix Marvel shows and are very excited about ol' Hornhead being back for "season 4" on Disney+. Although we have some strong words to say about those opening scenes. And then we talk about where we think this season is going. What's Mayor Fisk really up to, who's really in charge of NYC's criminal empire, and when will the Punisher sue the NYPD for copyright infringement?

  • Occasional Randomness #33 - Timey Wimey Stuff And Pirates (Farscape S4E11, Skeleton Crew S1E5-8)
    2025/02/24

    First up in our ongoing watch of Farscape -- season 4, episode 11 - Unrealized Reality. Crichton gets sucked down a wormhole and meets another of the mysterious Ancients. This one explains everything you ever wanted to know about wormholes, and some stuff we bet Crichton didn't want to know. We loved all the alternate realities Crichton gets thrown into, which just keep getting more wild and wacky.

    Then we finish the second half of season 1 of Star Wars, Skeleton Crew -- episodes 5-8. We loved the first half of the season and the rest of the season did not disappoint us either. A nice 'coming of age' story set in the Star Wars Universe. And pirates!

  • Occasional Randomness - Farscape Flashback #22 - Chekhov's Halitosis (Farscape S2E21-22)
    2025/02/06

    While Jason and I deal with colds, work and other IRL stuff, enjoy our final episode of Farscape Flashbacks! Our reposting of our Farscape season one and two podcasts that we did on another podcasting network so you can more easily listen to them here.

    Here's our "original" show notes for this episode. Enjoy and we'll see you soon with new episodes!

    Eric and Jason close out season two of Farscape with a pair of episodes reviews and then the season two review, lowlights and highlights.

    First up, Liars, Guns and Money (Part 3): Plan B. Instead of using their newly obtained mercenaries to rescue D’Argo’s son, now they’re off to rescue Crichton from Scorpius’ clutches. But don’t worry, Stark has another foolproof plan… ah, frell that, it’s time for a guns blazing, frontal assault! They manage to rescue Crichton, but at what cost?

    Finally, Die Me, Dichotomy, the (mostly) exciting season two cliffhanger. The crew locates a healer who can both heal Moya and get the neural chip out of Crichton’s head. But the chip isn’t having any of that and does its best to get itself, and Crichton, back to Scorpius. And then some other things happen that we’d like to forget about, before the exciting cliffhanger ending that sets up season three.

  • Occasional Randomness #32 - Witches and Pirates and Kids, Oh My! (Agatha All Along S1E4-6, Skeleton Crew S1E1-4)
    2025/01/08

    We're staying inside the Disney+ ecosystem this week. We wrap up season 1 of Agatha All Along, with episodes 7 - 9. Did we think they brought the season home on a good note, ready for whatever comes next? Mostly. Did Jason ever come to like any of the characters? Well... But overall, we did like it and we'll see if anything comes after it to continue where they leave us at the end of the Witches' Road.

    Then we cover the first half of season 1 of the latest live action Star Wars, Skeleton Crew, episodes 1 - 4. This one we're completely invested in. We love the characters, setting and theme. And we get to see Star Wars' version of suburban life. It's definitely your Young Adult series (with pirates!) but has something for every age group. We speculate what the mysterious treasure of At Attin is as well as life based around aptitude tests.

  • Occasional Randomness #31 - Girl Power! (Farscape S4E10, Agatha All Along S1E4-6)
    2024/12/08

    Next up through the final season of Farscape, we cover season 4, episode 10 - Coup by Clam. And yes, it is about a coup and by using clams. So, good on ya Farscape writer for making a very descriptive episode title. While orbiting a planet where they found some tech to help Moya survive Tormeted Space, the crew eat the aforementioned clams and become poisoned. It's all a shakedown plan by a doctor who will give them the cure in exchange for lots of money. But of course that plan goes off the rails and the crew needs to get the cure themselves before they all die.

    Then we discuss the second 3 episodes of the latest Disney+ Marvel series, Agatha All Along, episodes 4 to 6. We continue to love the various trials the coven goes through but think the supporting characters could be more interesting. And one of the ones they do make more interesting, they kill off... maybe. But we do get to learn who the mysterious Teen really is... and it's someone we thought it was all along.

  • Occasional Randomness #30 - Bribing and Vibing (Farscape S4E09, Agatha All Along S1E1-3)
    2024/11/14

    This time around Eric and Jason discuss Farscape season 4, episode 9 - A Prefect Murder. We both didn't think the different points of view story method worked on this one. We thought it would have been better off directed like a normal episode. But we did agree on the strongest plotline and the great John and Aeryn scenes.

    Then we discuss the first 3 episodes of the latest Disney+ Marvel series, Agatha All Along. We liked the overall storyline so far and the way they threw everyone a curve with the opening episode. We hope some of the characters get more developed as the series continues, but we're excited to see where it goes. And we get to geek out for a bit on Marvel magical characters from the comics and upcoming Disney Marvel and Star Wars shows.

  • Occasional Randomness - Farscape Flashback #21-Relax, It's All Part of the Plan (Farscape S2E19-20)
    2024/10/24

    Welcome to the next episode of Farscape Flashbacks! Our reposting of our Farscape season one and two podcasts that we did on another podcasting network so you can more easily listen to them here.

    Here's our "original" show notes for this episode. Enjoy!

    Eric and Jason review the first two parts of Farscape’s second ever three part storyline, "Liars, Guns and Money". And during all that, wander off on tangents about Star Wars, the A-Team and past episodes of this here podcast.

    First up, Part 1 - A Not So Simple Plan. Which is pretty much as advertised. Stark (hey, isn’t he dead?) has a not so simple plan to steal enough money to buy D’Argo’s son Jothee from the slavers holding him captive. With such a complicated plan, it goes off without any issues at all. No… who are we kidding? Of course not. The crew must deal with a heavily secured depository, its leader, and our old buddy Scorpius to get what they need.

    Finally, Part 2 - With Friends Like These… After learning that all their efforts last time weren’t quite good enough, this time it’s Crichton who comes up with his own somewhat simpler plan to free Jothee. But it involves recruiting several people we met in season one who they didn’t leave on the best of terms with. It goes better than you’d expect, but there’s yet another complication that might make their hard work all for naught. And Crichton has to make a hard choice…
