    #309 - Masters of the Universe (1987)

    Good journey, Down to Watch listeners, and pew pew to you, we watched 1987's The Masters of the Universe. Dan and Raul have not the just the power but also the opinions regarding the first time He-Man arrived on the silver screens. As the 21st century deploys it's version into theaters, the DtW crew wants to know what happened when Teela and Man-at-Arms were chased by Skeletor from expensive looking Eternia to much more easily filmed Whittier, California. Did Dolph Lundgren and a first time Courtney Cox make history with a StarWarsian, Conan-esque laser barbarian tale or does this movie belong in the cult bin, or worse!?! Listen up, find out if heroism is as lonely as villainy!

    #308 - All That Jazz (1979)

    Down to Watch is dancing, smoking, singing and pill popping all the way to the stage this week with the classic film All That Jazz! Dan and Raul watched what the industry calls "a musical" in Bob Fosse's semi-autobiographical tale about a man wrestling with his inner demons; the same demons that threaten his relationships as well as his health are the same that make him the best. The film is crafted in a way that blends his inner monologue, life scenes, dance numbers and a conversation with an ethereal figure into a complete story of a son of a... It's pretty great!

    #307 - Spider-Noir (Season 1, Episodes 1 & 2)

    This week, DtW answers: What if your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man wasn't so friendly, so modern or so colorful? Spider-Noir is on Prime Video so Dan and Raul can decide what they think about Nic Cage's take on Pet... er, Ben Riley actually! Probably due to contracts, there are no Parkers in this black and white private detective tale that puts the current Spider-Man a 1930s New York City that shoots a lot like modern Los Angeles, but there are plenty of powered up weirdos filling newspaper pages. Some characters are old fashioned takes on previously seen villains like The Sandman, alongside new foes like Tombstone as well as classic Spidey fodder, organized crime. The first two eps covered on this pod give you a great taste of what's to come throughout the series, so come light up your big ol' bug eyes and check it out!

    #306 - June 2026 TV Premieres!

    The DtW crew found a June-full of tv shows to share with a select few, and guess what? You made the list! Dan and Raul return to forecasting the next month of noteworthy new and returning television series that will feel like a summer holiday. New vacation destinations include a true story about models doing culty stuff, Larry David's funny history of America stuff and a doc on the King of Pop and whatever he was up to. Over in the land of make-believe we can visit old friends Alice and Steve to see how that friendship is holding up, take in some ambiance and meet friends on Cape Fear and say hello again to Sugar while we wave so long to The Bear. Plenty to talk about, upcoming adventures and off-trail conversations abound, so pack and plan with this pod!

    #305 - Legends / The Punisher: One Last Kill

    Down to Watch is leaving it's mark and serving up consequences with Legends and Punisher: One Last Kill! Dan and Raul skipped across the pond to take a look at what they call undercover cop drama and they like what they see. It's the usually comedic Steve Coogan delivering a grizzled veteran customs officer tasked with putting a team together to battle the influx of heroin into 90s England. Without extra funds, it will take creativity and a selection of agents disillusioned with their current customs work for a gang of rookies to infiltrate an established drug cell. On the other hand, One Last Kill proves that the Punisher can re-enter society as well as the MCU by dealing with his mental distress and neighborhood chaos with what turns out to be all of the guns in under an hour. Both shows did what they came to do pretty well, come listen to a pod about it!

    #304 - Grease (1978)

    You're the Down that I Watch! (ooh ooh ooh, honey!) Dan and Raul watched the 1978 classic musical Grease, so this pod is all about T-Birds and rose colored ladies and the beauty school dropouts in the midst of summer loving, of the night variety. One host enjoyed it more than the other but neither denies the massive historical impact that Danny and Sandy had on musicals, movies and culture in general. Many of the songs in this tuneful tale are hard coded in the minds and hearts of both fans of the film and music lovers alike, while the vibe of the movie, be it parody or pastiche, can lead to a more disputed discussion under modern scrutiny. What cannot be argued are the magnetic charms of a young Travolta, the breakneck speed at which the plot unfolds and the classic tune that tells us that Grease is the word!

    #303 - Widow's Bay (Season 1, Episodes 1-3)

    Hey hey, it's DtW on the way, and we're setting up shop in Widow's Bay! Dan and Raul are checking out the homey storefronts, the peaceful coast and the one nice diner in a spooky island town on AppleTV. This is a town that has been compared to Pawnee from Parks & Rec by way of Stephen King, and the description is as apt as the town is very cursed but the people are quite kooky. Mayor Loftis, played by Matthew Rhys, is trying to wrangle the odder elements of the isolated community enough to turn it into a tourist destination in an effort to save the floundering town. However, despite his shaky skepticism, the forces of strange and scary are descending on the town like a fog, sometimes literally, and only the quirky loons like Stephen Root's Wyck know how to deal with it. The show is both funnier and scarier than the trailers hinted at, but do these qualities mesh into a solid watch? Listen to this pod and be forewarned!

    #302 - May 2026 TV Premieres!

    The year is finally getting into the swing of new TV and Down to Watch has your May schedule all filled out! Dan and Raul went to the TV show store to browse the new products on the shelf and came away with a cart full of promise: The big guns are back in the form of the MCU's Punisher 'special presentation' and Nick Cage helmed 1930s Spider-Man, Taylor Sheridan's expanding universe adding Dutton Ranch and the Duffer Brothers producing an elderly A-listers versus a sci-fi retirement community in The Boroughs. Wrexham and Good Omens are back, and For All Mankind spins off to Russia while The Terror returns for a new story about a very scary asylum. New shows include Legends giving Steve Coogan some serious business to conduct, Tatiana Maslany promises (good stuff in) Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed and Brazil '70 gives Pele's squad the historical drama treatment. There's even more than that so check the pod and get your May on!
