Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place - Ryan Reynolds’ Big Break
That Was a Show?
08/01/23 • 73 min
5.0
Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place was the 1998 sitcom about Gen-X career and relationship angst. It featured Ryan Reynolds as Berg (Guy 1), Richard Ruccolo as Pete (Guy 2) and Traylor Howard as Sharon (a Girl). They hang out at Beacon Street Pizza in Boston (a Pizza Place) where the Guys work. After season two, the pizza place is dropped from both the story world and the title, and it becomes Two Guys and a Girl—a title that is both preposterously generic and numerically inaccurate, as another Guy as well as another Girl are added to the main cast. Whatever...the point is this slightly younger, slightly edgier version of Friends is best known for helping launch the career of superhero/gin/football tycoon Ryan Reynolds. These two guys and a girl (Barry, Aaron and Brynn) grab a few slices and give it a taste.

Small Wonder - The weirdest sitcom of the 80s?
That Was a Show?
07/16/21 • 57 min
Small Wonder WAS a show. This baffling piece of pop culture refuse miraculously aired for four seasons. It centred around the wacky hijinks of a scientist, his family, and the weird robot child he created for...reasons. Join Brynn, Aaron and Barry as they perform their own experiments into this thankfully Matt-LeBlanc free, bit of sci-fi comedic nonsense.

Pearl WAS a show. This story of a middle-aged loading dock manager (Perlman) who finally gets to go to university may have only lasted one season, but it certainly had an all star cast! She spars with her pompous and elitist professor Stephen Pynchon (McDowell) because he doesn’t believe a working class student like Pearl has any place in an institution of higher learning. Brynn, Aaron & Barry sign up for this course to learn why this show didn’t earn a passing grade.

Vinnie & Bobby - aka Matt LeBlanc’s Joey Before Joey
That Was a Show?
06/17/21 • 78 min
Vinnie & Bobby WAS a show. Buried deep within the filthy bowels of Married With Children was a backdoor pilot for a show called Top Of The Heap starring Matt LeBlanc. It lasted seven episodes. But because everyone else was wrong, another attempt was made featuring the same character, Vinnie Verducci, and thus Vinnie & Bobby was born. It also lasted seven episodes.
Brynn, Aaron & Barry attempt to piece this all together—and while they’re at it they pick apart the latest major act of 90s nostalgia about that obscure show where Matt LeBlanc really took off...the Friends Reunion! Welcome back to Season 2 of That Was a Show?

Season 1 Finale! That Was a Season?
That Was a Show?
05/06/21 • 63 min
Brynn, Aaron & Barry look back at a full 90s-sitcom-season worth of podcast episodes. The hosts watch another episode of a show they reviewed early on to see how it compares; they present the first annual TWASies Awards to some of the most deserving shows, characters and actors; they answer a listener question; and they reflect on the origin story of That Was a Show? and how far they’ve come! And inspired by classic sitcoms, there’s even a clipshow!

Jennifer Slept Here WAS a show. These are the actual lyrics to the theme song:
“I just saw the most beautiful ghost in the world—she slept here. I just saw the most outrageous kind of a girl—she lived here. Jennifer, whatchu doin’ to me? In and out of my life you appear. They say the stars don’t shine as bright since you left here. Jennifer slept here; she lived here; she loved here; laughed here and wept here—she slept here. And she never really left here—Jennifer slept here!”
Brynn, Aaron & Barry hold a séance to find out why the ghost of a Hollywood starlet is hanging out with a 14 year old boy.

Top of the Heap - Starring Matt LeBlanc and Mr. Fluffy the Cat
That Was a Show?
07/02/21 • 49 min
Top of the Heap WAS a show. It was the first of two Married...With Children spinoffs starring Matt LeBlanc as working class “himbo” Vinnie Verducci. Brynn, Aaron & Barry couldn’t resist exploring this character further after their previous episode about Vinnie & Bobby. Ultimately though, they agree that the true star of this ill-fated sitcom was—spoiler—not human.

Get a Life - Starring Chris Elliott
That Was a Show?
03/11/21 • 55 min
Get a Life WAS a show. Before he moved to Schitt’s Creek, Chris Elliot was a 30 year old paper boy who died constantly. You read correctly... anyway, this character is a manchild, a renegade and definitely “unique.” Hollywood heavyweight Charlie Kauffman wrote for this wacky show, and you certainly can’t tell. CROSSOVER ALERT: Kaydence and Kolin from the B-Watch Rewatch Podcast drop in to offer their hot takes.

The Nutt House WAS a show. Back in 1989 this short-lived sitcom was co-created by Mel Brooks, modeled after the absurd farcical style of comedy popularized by his films like Young Frankenstein and Spaceballs. It’s the story of a struggling old New York hotel named after its owners—the Nutt family. With lavish set design and orchestral score, this single-camera show features an impressive cast including Cloris Leachman in two different roles. Brynn, Aaron & Barry check in and see if they enjoy their stay.

Saved by the Bell: The College Years WAS a show. This 1993 sequel picks up right where the original series left off. Zack, Slater and Screech move into a dorm at California University. With age comes wisdom, and they’re finally ready to give up the childish schemes and antics, buckle down, and take their education seriously. Just kidding! Brynn, Aaron & Barry crack the books and study why this extension of the massively successful franchise lasted a mere 19 episodes. They also watch and review the new Saved by the Bell 2020 reboot series, and oh how the times have changed!
