Downton Abbey has been adapted from television series to feature film, and professional movie analysts Joe Reid and Chris Feil of the This Had Oscar Buzz podcast are joining us to talk about it! Around The Dial clicks through a trio of CBS sitcom pilots, Unbelievable, 30 For 30's "Rodman: For Better Or Worse," and Dark Crystal: Age Of Resistance. Sarah and Tara take a look at Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail's just-announced Battlestar Galacticareboot and ask: Will Dave Hate This? We take on Mary's Muppetational Extra Credit question. Chris and Joe make the case for Project Runway S02.E09, "Flower Power," to be inducted into the Canon. Then, after talking Emmy Winners and Losers, it's on to a Game Time that tests our knowledge of our Boomer relatives' favourite shows. Grab your favourite footman and join us!

SUPPORT EHG ON PATREON

The EHG gang have been recording this podcast for almost a decade now. In podcasting terms, that makes us positively Methuselahian. Since the start of EHG, our listeners have asked if we had a tip jar or donation system and we'd look at each other and say surely that is a joke, people don't pay other people to do podcasts. We'd email them back "Ha ha ha, good one, Chet" and go about our business. Now we are told this is a real thing that real nice people do. Value for value? In today's topsy turvy world? It's madness but that good kind of madness, like when you wake up a 3:15am and clean your house. Or something. In all seriousness, we are humbled by your continued prodding to get a Patreon page up for EHG and here it is! Extra Hot Great on Patreon
