Dear Sally: A Felicity Podcast

Previously I gave this show a 5 out of 5 stars, but it's devolved a bit recently. I really enjoy everything they have to say about the show, but sometimes it seems like half of the show has nothing to do with Felicity at all, and it's not a very long podcast, so they can't afford it like the Gilmore Guys can with their hours long podcasts. I don't mind if they go off on these tangents, but I would suggest doing some editing to get rid of some of it aferwards, or otherwise lengthen the show a bit to compensate for it.

I am very late to this show, having recently binged all the episodes. I wanted to listen to an episode by episode recap and discussion which is how I came upon this podcast. The episodes are too long and poorly edited. Here and there they offer good insight into the episodes, but listeners need to hear what basically sounds like a long conversation between friends to get to these nuggets. Too bad as the show has staying power and if these episodes had been better organized and edited, I would have chosen to listen to the whole series. Instead I listened to a few early episodes and then skipped ahead to the last 5 or 6 shows. Seems like a wasted opportunity for Felicity fans, while the podcasters sound like they are having a fun but mostly a private conversation about their lives.

Half the time these girls can’t remember what they just watched or they get time info wrong.

I’m on episode 7 and not sure I want to continue. The description has one of the girls describing herself as a Felicity fanatic, yet she can barely remember anything about the show. Not what I would call a fanatic — she has barely more knowledge than the Felicity newbie. Not only that, they appear to do no preparation for their show and don’t even watch the episodes before recording! In episode 7, a very impt episode, one of the girls literally says that the details of the episode are fuzzy because she hasn’t watched it for two weeks. Why are you recording TWO WEEKS after watching the episode?! They’re clearly copying the Gilmore guys model, but not well.
