Small Wonder - The weirdest sitcom of the 80s?
Explicit content warning
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.

Previous Episode
Top of the Heap - Starring Matt LeBlanc and Mr. Fluffy the Cat
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.

Next Episode
Saved by the Bell: The College Years + Saved by the Bell 2020 Reboot reviewed!
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!
