    X: Sticking Around For Spider-Noir

    "The Spider" has spun out of the Into The Spider-Verse movie series and into a live-action series starring Nicolas Cage as Ben Reilly, a Depression-era PI who happens to have superpowers. We tell you whether it deserves eight thumbs up. Your latest Ask EHG questions require us, among other things, to disclose whether we would be okay living in a house where a murder had taken place and what our favorite Haribo shape is. Steal Meal Eric pitches They Might Be Giants' rendition of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from a 1990 Tonight Show episode for the Tiny Musical Performance Canon. We name the week's Not Quite Winners And Losers before Kim's Most Awesome Thing. Then, we wrap up with a rare legal/martial Non-Regulation Game Time from Seth. Put yourself in a black-and-white mood and join us! EPISODE NOTES https://extrahotgreat.com/eehg-412/

    Issuing A Silver Alert For The Boroughs

    The Stranger Things team (among others) is back with a similar “a community of X bands together against a supernatural force” story in The Boroughs, which features an all-star cast (Alfred Molina, Alfre Woodard, Lester from The Wire) going up against [redacted] AND their own aches and pains. Does the actors’ group chemistry carry the story, or did it need to take one thing off? And have we maybe seen these ideas in other properties like The Descent and Man On The Inside? If that pairing of references didn’t give you whiplash, come Around The Dial with us for Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, Animaniacs, The Bear‘s trip to Gary, IN, and a Drunk Dave recovery report before Dave takes us to a DIFFERENT old-folks home with his Aqua Teen Hunger Force Canon pitch. BAffleck won, Tom Hardy lost, and we all hoped Game Time would tie the whole episode together. Barge on in with a six-pack and some gossip: it’s an all-new Extra Hot Great.

    X: Should You Mark Mating Season On Your Calendar?

    The creators of Big Mouth are back at Netflix with Mating Season, another animated look at relationships and sex, but this time from an adult...animal perspective; we tell you whether it's worth heading to the woods for. Ask EHG has us (among other things) sharing the T.M.s we would replace The Mandalorian with in The Mandalorian And Grogu and choosing a TV show that should get its own supermarket product line. Julie pitches a memorable Emanuel Ax moment for the Tiny Cameo Canon. Then, after naming the week's Not Quite Winners and Losers, we close by thanking some TV troops for their service. Put a whole fish in your tiki cocktail and listen! EPISODE NOTES https://extrahotgreat.com/eehg-410/

    Having Fun Out Of The Sun For The Summer TV Preview

    The last of the Emmy-begging shows are nearly behind us, which means it’s time to look ahead to what has historically been TV’s silliest season: summer! Alan Sepinwall and Kathryn VanArendonk, co-hosts of the new podcast TV Is Good, join us to share the shows they’re into; the shows they should be into but aren’t; the shows no one should be into; and the “Good For You!” shows that aren’t for them but have a right to exist. Wendy pitches “Take My Finals, Please” from The Facts Of Life for induction into The Canon. Then, after naming the week’s Winner and Loser, we close on a Non-Regulation Game Time worth singing about. Close all your blinds against the blazing sun and listen!

    X: Traveling To Blue Mountain State

    Lingonberry threw a Hail Mary for this month's Forcening -- an episode of Blue Mountain State featuring Reacher and crotch shots. Did the panel think it was a wiener? We answered your questions about superstitions and public-domain Netflix pitches; Tara took a deep dive into Mianus culture for the Tiny Sketch Canon, and we listed farty UK show titles and controversial TV portraits. Then Sarah boldly went to the far corners of the IMDb for a ST: TOS Game Time. Unhand that Jack Russell terrier and hit play on an all-new EEHG! EPISODE NOTES https://extrahotgreat.com/eehg-409/

    X: Going Undercover With Legends

    Margaret Thatcher needed a win; British Customs needed to infiltrate a heroin ring to give it to her; do YOU need to watch Legends, on the regular-guy and -gal agents assigned to the operation? We discuss process, pacing, Steve Coogan's dramatic chops, and great needle drops. Ask EHG asks what's in our wallets and which famous TV robots need guest-star gigs, plus our Oreo preferences. Tara wants to know whether her commercial pitch for the Tiny Canon is a headliner. We listed Not Quite 11 bad 1950s show titles and recast roles for John Legend, and Stephanie Early Green screened The Real Housewives Of Rhode Island before the panel power-ranked the top cast of Family Ties.
