Untitled BoJack Horseman Project: Episode 6

They released it in two parts, so we’re talkin’ about it in two parts. Deal with it!

BoJack is in rehab, Diane is in Chicago, Mr Peanutbutter is in hot water of his own making and Princess Carolyn is really not doing so well juggling work and her new child. Plus Todd’s complicated family dynamic is at least revealed.

Is the part one/part two thing ever called for? Would this have been better as two longer seasons or one truncated one? Was it even time to end the show at all? Let’s find out!

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: GLOW (Season 3)

Cancelled Too Soon concludes with a show that was renewed for a final season that never was. What ended up being the last season of the show saw the GLOW television show transformed into the GLOW Vegas residency show.

Jerome and Kevin talk about the continued balancing act of a large cast, the uneven nature of the season, parallel age gapped relationship stories, what they believe is the best episode of the entire series, and once again give the cast their well-earned flowers. They then discuss the show’s untimely cancellation, what was to come in Season 4, and some postmortem comments from the cast and crew.

Untitled BoJack Horseman Project: Episode 5

Bojack has landed the lead role in WhatTimeIsItRightNow.Com’s prestige TV drama, Philbert, but it turns out a chaotic production and prescription pain pills aren’t good for a drug addict with an extensive history of Terrible Deeds.

Elsewhere, Diane and Mr. Peanutbutter respond to their break-up in very different ways, Princess Carolyn is desperately trying to adopt a child and keep her agency afloat, and Todd has created a delightful monstrosity.

Untitled BoJack Horseman Project: Episode 4

BoJack has a daughter?!? Ruh-roh! Unpacking some secret Horseman family history definitely won’t unleash new levels of trauma on our cast! Probably… Maybe…. Hmm….

Meanwhile Mr. Peanutbutter is running for Governor of California, Diane is struggling with her thoughts (and prayers), Princess Carolyn has some big family and career decisions to make, and Todd has some bold ideas for better business.

Untitled BoJack Horseman Project: Episode 3

All aboard the Oscar Train, because against all odds BoJack is in the running for Best Actor! We meet his ruthless publicist, Ana Spanakopita, Todd’s ex-girlfriend, Emily, Princess Carolyn’s new boyfriend, Ralph, and the enigmatic Cuddlywhiskers.

Some minor disagreement when comparing Seasons 2 and 3, but as always we select our two favourite episodes, Ben tries to remember all the plots without any notes and we take a stab at the litany of tongue-twisters.

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: GLOW (Season 2)

Season 2 of GLOW came at an interesting time. As Jerome and Kevin discuss the season, they also discuss how the #MeToo movement happening in modern day was reflected in a show taking place in the 1980s.

They also talk about improvements from the first season and other things they wish could have been improved, a couple of new additions to the cast, what story elements could’ve been omitted, and why Jerome seems Hulk Hogan and Bret Hart in the two main characters.

BoJack’s book is a hit, and so is this podcast! Okay one of those things is true. BoJack films his dream movie, Mr. Peanutbutter has a new hit show, Diane takes down a beloved public figure, Princess Carolyn starts her own agency and Todd wins big in copyright court.

We break down the new recurring characters and surprisingly big name cameos, Ben tries to remember the plot of every episode, we each pick a favourite episode, and of course try to tackle some tongue twisters.

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: GLOW (Season 1)

It’s finally time for the Cancelled Too Soon series to come to an end. What better way to do so then for Jerome and Kevin to discuss the very topic that started their podcasting relationship – professional wrestling? 

Today’s episode marks the first part of the Cancelled Too Soon finale, discussing Season 1 of Netflix’s GLOW. First, there’s talks of what the hosts knew about the actual GLOW wrestling promotion before watching the show and how women’s wrestling was viewed in the 1980s. Then they talk about the 2012 documentary about GLOW and how that birthed the Netflix series. Talks of the show itself centers mostly around the characters and how successful the show was at balancing the ensemble cast.

Sprinkled amongst the discussion are talks of bad wigs and costuming, wrestling venues and fans, and comparison to actual wrestlers.
