2021 WAS a year. We look back on some of our favourite—and least favourite—shows, characters, tropes, sets and other sitcom artifacts from our reviews over the past year. Brynn, Aaron & Barry each give their pick for 20 different categories in this lightning round bonus episode. Happy New Year and thanks for listening!

A Very Special Episode: The TWAS Holiday Office Party!

Well, it’s that time of year again! Brynn, Aaron & Barry had a classy little holiday office party to celebrate another year of podcasting. They discuss Christmas episodes of two shows from the 90s that they recall fondly: Boy Meets World and Seinfeld... and then they watch a Christmas episode from one of the failed or forgotten shows they reviewed earlier in 2021. Which one? It’s a surprise!

BadAptation Series: A League of Their Own - The Sitcom (1993)

A League of Their Own WAS a show. Welcome to the first episode in our “BadAptation” series—the 1992 film “A League of Their Own” was adapted into a sitcom with the same title and premise a mere one year later in 1993. The film was a box office and critical success! The sitcom...lasted 6 episodes, and only 5 aired. That might sound kind of sad, but remember, there’s no crying in baseball!
