Episode 08: Kojak, S2 E12
Primetime Crimetime
09/29/20 • 62 min
🔥 This week’s episode was recorded with Richard in the middle of the California wildfires that turned the sky of San Francisco red, only to be topped by a heatwave. If he sounds like he’s in a 100 degree closet with a bowl of ice water soaking a towel to put on his head... he was. Just pretend the tinkling ice and mildly muffled sound was for less apocalyptic reasons, baby! 🔥
Hang out with us as Zoë and Richard recap Kojak season 2, episode 12, “The Best War In Town” with actor and screenwriter, special guest Ben Livingston. Watch as a series of bland, indescribable gangsters try to kill other bland, indescribable gangsters for control of someplace! That is, until Kojak gets involved with his tough, no-nonsense, Hellenic street wisdom and works tirelessly to save the gangsters who murder, sell drugs, and run prostitutes. But hey, better the psychopaths you know, right?--
Finally, this episode was not sponsored by Tootsie Pops, even though you know you want one...

Episode 22: Magnum P.I., S7 E9
Primetime Crimetime
01/15/22 • 85 min
It's moustache versus menopause as Magnum P.I. meets Jessica Fletcher for a good old-fashioned mystery — and it's a good thing they've got two detectives on the case because the biggest mystery is figuring out what is actually happening in the show. 🌴📚
Something about embezzlement, a hitman, a book club's worth of authors, and then Magnum straight up kills someone a garden party and seems pretty okay with it? Listen as Zoë and Richard try to solve the mystery of the crossover that crosses over into incomprehensibility!
Oh yeah. And the shorts are really THAT short.

Primetime Crimetime
03/24/21 • 76 min
What happens when Family Affair meets Breaking Bad? A lot of very weird stuff. This week Zoë and Richard head into the Pacific Northwest wilderness with special guest, Greg Nibler, from Funemployment Radio and Two Box Media! Come along as they try to carve out a sensible narrative from the forest of absurd dialogue, take a deflating raft down a rapid river of odd character development, and steal ideas from the Deliverance campsite just down the road.

Episode 10: CHiPS, S2 E6 (Halloween Special!)
Primetime Crimetime
10/31/20 • 61 min
L.A. 15, 7-Mary BOO! 👻🏍
So, “CHiPS.” When you put the title of a show in quotes it’s hard to tell if it’s all just one ironic joke? Primetime Crimetime releases their first Halloween special as they ride into Season 2; Episode 6, “Trick or Trick." Jon and Ponch have a busy night of performing “police work” as Ponch ponders the possibility of unseen supernatural forces that potentially guide our existence while Jon’s “personality” sort of disappears by standing too close to dry wall. Oh, they also chase down a mace-wielding sexy kabuki ghost robbing liquor stores, and not one of those words is in quotes.
What was supposed to be a fun treat, sent Richard into a tailspin into madness, and what could be scarier than that?

Episode 03: Columbo, S3 E7 (Part 1)
Primetime Crimetime
07/02/20 • 57 min
There is no, “One more thing,” there is only THE THING, and that’s that Columbo is a precious treasure and gem of our time. Grab your thermoses and undersized parachutes boys, this one is D.B. Cooper fan fiction with Johnny Cash starring basically as himself.
This week Zoë and Richard shine a light on one of their favorite episodes starring Johnny Cash as a gospel singer who uses an entire plane to kill two people. We discuss the hard-hitting issues of this investigation including statutory rape, plane safety procedures, and of course Johnny Cash singing! Oh, just one more thing, for the first time in his career, Columbo thinks he’s been bested until he finds the key to the entire mystery.

Episode 23: Murder She Wrote, S3 E8
Primetime Crimetime
03/16/22 • 101 min
There’s a saying that goes: if everywhere you travel someone is murdered, maybe you should stay home. Zoë, Richard, and special guest Stephanie investigate the second half of the epic spectacular television experiment that is the Magnum P.I./Murder She Wrote crossover mystery, where the mystery is the plot itself!
Take off your cardigan and put on your seersucker, we're trading Cabot Cove for Waikiki and Magnum is pretending to read a book in jail for most of it. And if book learning and data is what you're after, Stephanie brings her incredible, and somewhat scary, dearth of knowledge about MSW lore to one of the informative PTCT shows ever!

Moonlighting, S2 E9, "Atlas Belched."

Episode 21: Dan August, S1 E9
Primetime Crimetime
10/31/21 • 81 min
It doesn’t get anymore 70s than a “swingers' resort” and a clean-shaven Burt Reynolds.
Burt charms as Dan August, a detective who is on the trail of of a murderer while applying his counseling skills to save a marriage. It's a wild time where work meetings didn't guarantee everyone was wearing a shirt, but pool parties definitely called for a sport coat. Get your sedatives on speed dial, and settle in for this episode that co-stars Three's Company's Normal Fell, who is surprisingly NOT the titular swinger. (He literally looks exactly the same in every role and probably was born looking like a 50-year-old insurance salesman.)

Episode 24: Moonlighting, S2 E9
Primetime Crimetime
05/11/22 • 82 min
You can cut the will-they-won't-they [understand the plot] tension with a knife as Zoë and Richard go Moonlighting! In this episode, they take on the high-pressure world of L.A. detective services — which naturally includes gritty corporate buyouts, betrayals, the shocking, seedy Rolodex black market and COUSIN LARRY APPLETON. Bruce Willis launches charm and somehow lands at offensive, and Cybil Shepherd tries even harder to be seen through soft focus lighting that would make cataracts envious. Get your body waves and skinny ties, it's Blue Moon time! 🌙
