Episode #59: The Thing (2011)

When you invite a comparison to John Carpenter's 1982 classic The Thing, you're kind of looking for trouble. But then to remove most of the practical monster FX at the last minute? That's just madness. Join me and horror writer Ben Rock (@neptunesalad) as we take a look back at this oddly fascinating prequel.

Overhated TV #1: Fastlane (2002)

I needed a fun sidebar for the patrons, and I may have settled on a good one. Join me and TV nerd Merrill Barr (@merrillbarr) as we discuss a semi-forgotten McG action series from 2002. Plus it's on Tubi now so you can savor the high-octane editing for yourself. Thanks to Merrill and patrons! (And feel free to throw me some suggestions for upcoming episodes! Yes, I'll be covering Cop Rock, and Manimal.) Thanks for listening to Overhated! There are 100+ more episodes at patreon.com/scottEweinberg. Subscribe to hear them all now!
