Season 2, Ep. 7: Edith's Accident

This podcast isn’t all that regular, and as a person who remembers the show the first time around, albeit as a child, there are times when I want to gently correct the hosts. For example, the show where Mike had his “problem” struck the hosts as TMI. But this was before that stuff was regularly talked about, and there were Viagra commercials on TV, so it was startling to see such a private issue discussed so openly. There are a bunch of “you had to be there” moments but that’s part of the fun of a new generation watching old shows. I find the hosts charming and smart and it’s rekindled my enthusiasm about what I consider one of the greatest shows ever on television, with some of the greatest performances ever on television. Sadly AITF starts to decline after its brilliant first four seasons, though it always has great moments, and I hope the hosts keep talking about and reacting to it. (They haven’t been that active lately.) Don’t stifle yourselves!

Reliving the Bunkers from My Quarantine Bunker

I was so excited when I learned that there was a podcast about All in the Family as it is my favorite show of all time.  Sadly, I was really disappointed when I listened to the first 2 episodes and it was readily apparent that these people were new to the show and had never watched it in its entirety previously.  The male host treats the episodes as if he is analyzing Beowulf and not a comedy series from nearly 50 years ago.  The female host is stammering throughout and clearly is new to the show.  The male host is especially fond of pontificating and displaying his vast vocabulary at the expense of being entertaining and interesting.  I am a big fan of these types of podcasts of classic series where the hosts go episode-by-episode and review and compare to modern times.  With the right hosts, this could (should) be an incredible podcast.  With these hosts, it simply isn’t.  I gave it 2 episodes but I’m done.

So disappointed
