9
00:00:29,470 --> 00:00:31,830
and, I do have some news items this week.
10
00:00:32,710 --> 00:00:35,510
>> Sarah : Yeah. So, okay, what is
11
00:00:35,510 --> 00:00:38,310
this? A Land of the Lost TV series
12
00:00:38,390 --> 00:00:39,030
reboot?
13
00:00:39,430 --> 00:00:42,310
>> Will: Yeah, so the Land of the Lost, it was
14
00:00:42,310 --> 00:00:44,870
a. A show that was
15
00:00:44,950 --> 00:00:47,750
aired back in the. In the 1970s.
16
00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:51,100
and it was, It was. It was the.
17
00:00:51,180 --> 00:00:53,820
It was Sid and Marty Croft, and the show
18
00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:56,820
was a. It was basically
19
00:00:56,820 --> 00:00:59,780
like a time travel show. So we had this
20
00:00:59,780 --> 00:01:02,680
family who, who were on
21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,520
an expedition and they go down
22
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,400
this waterfall and they end up back
23
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,040
in the lands of like, the dinosaurs. Prehistoric times.
24
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:12,400
>> Sarah : Okay.
25
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,620
>> Will: Yeah. And so it was, Yeah,
26
00:01:15,620 --> 00:01:18,620
so. So it only aired for like three seasons in the.
27
00:01:18,700 --> 00:01:21,660
In the mid. Mid, mid to late 70s.
28
00:01:21,660 --> 00:01:24,580
But for all the Gen Xers who are listening to
29
00:01:24,580 --> 00:01:27,420
us, we all grew up on this show
30
00:01:27,420 --> 00:01:29,820
because it was rerun and
31
00:01:29,820 --> 00:01:32,700
syndication in the 80s M. And
32
00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:35,740
so, you know, so hit it, you know, became a big cult following. There
33
00:01:35,740 --> 00:01:38,650
was like the sea stacks and you know, I,
34
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,590
think the. The third season, I
35
00:01:41,590 --> 00:01:44,270
want to say, the dad,
36
00:01:44,270 --> 00:01:46,990
like this disappeared and then
37
00:01:46,990 --> 00:01:49,880
the, uncle came looking for the. Looking for the
38
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,840
missing family members. So, yeah, so that was sort of
39
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,759
the premise of the show. And then I want to say in
40
00:01:55,759 --> 00:01:58,600
like, maybe the mid. Early two. Maybe the early
41
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,040
2000s or late 90s, I guess it was early
42
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,900
2000s, Will Ferrell actually made a.
43
00:02:03,900 --> 00:02:06,570
They did a movie of this. But
44
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:09,810
of course it was, you know, it pretty much
45
00:02:09,810 --> 00:02:12,610
like eviscerated rotten
46
00:02:12,610 --> 00:02:15,130
tomatoes, even IMDb. I mean, it's like, you know,
47
00:02:15,210 --> 00:02:18,010
26, like tomato and
48
00:02:18,570 --> 00:02:21,500
very low rated. And so this. This reboot that
49
00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:24,380
Netflix is doing is going to be a reboot of the
50
00:02:24,380 --> 00:02:27,130
original TV show and not that, crappy world feral
51
00:02:27,130 --> 00:02:30,110
movie that was done, in the, you know, a few
52
00:02:30,110 --> 00:02:30,630
years ago.
53
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:32,710
>> Sarah : Interesting.
54
00:02:32,870 --> 00:02:33,350
>> Will: Yeah.
55
00:02:34,870 --> 00:02:37,310
>> Sarah : And then was, it today
56
00:02:37,790 --> 00:02:40,660
that, DC Studios announced the lead for the
57
00:02:40,660 --> 00:02:41,820
Clay Face movie.
58
00:02:41,980 --> 00:02:44,860
>> Will: Yes, we got the lead for the Clay Face
59
00:02:44,860 --> 00:02:47,090
movie. His name is Tom,
60
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,240
Reese Harries. He's a Welsh actor.
61
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,880
And, currently he's in the, Apple, tv,
62
00:02:55,130 --> 00:02:58,090
show Suspicion. and I think that's with the Uma Thurman,
63
00:02:58,090 --> 00:03:00,820
if I recall. but yeah, so he beat out,
64
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,510
Jack o' Quinn who most recently has been in
65
00:03:04,460 --> 00:03:07,240
Centers and also 28 years later
66
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,870
Tom Blythe who was in the Hunger Games and
67
00:03:11,380 --> 00:03:14,170
George McKay who was in 1917. So
68
00:03:14,490 --> 00:03:17,000
yeah, Clayface is one of the OG
69
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,290
Batman villains. he was
70
00:03:19,770 --> 00:03:22,490
first appeared in the detective
71
00:03:22,490 --> 00:03:25,130
comics in 1940 and
72
00:03:26,740 --> 00:03:29,700
he was a, I guess an actor before that the
73
00:03:29,700 --> 00:03:32,520
character was an actor before turning to a life
74
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,400
of crime. And of course you know the clay face,
75
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,040
of course he was you know, Shapeshifter and stuff. So
76
00:03:38,310 --> 00:03:40,950
yeah. So this is the, you know this, this film I think
77
00:03:40,950 --> 00:03:43,760
originally was going to be the. Directed by James
78
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,160
Mangle but I think he stepped away
79
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,400
to. And now James Watkins I believe is
80
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,360
stepping in to direct it and I think Mike Flanigan is
81
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,360
writing it and it's scheduled currently is scheduled for
82
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,800
Release and on
83
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,560
9-11-2026. So
84
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,330
that's the, the latest on on Clayface and I think
85
00:04:02,330 --> 00:04:05,140
Matt Reeves is also maybe executive producing
86
00:04:05,140 --> 00:04:05,460
it.
87
00:04:07,220 --> 00:04:07,780
>> Sarah : Okay.
88
00:04:08,270 --> 00:04:08,590
>> Will: Yeah.
89
00:04:08,590 --> 00:04:10,030
>> Sarah : So I'm not gonna lie.
90
00:04:10,350 --> 00:04:10,790
>> Will: Yeah.
91
00:04:10,790 --> 00:04:13,790
>> Sarah : I, I listened very carefully.
92
00:04:14,190 --> 00:04:15,230
But when you,
93
00:04:16,990 --> 00:04:19,510
when you said Jack o'
94
00:04:19,510 --> 00:04:21,630
Quinn, I Was like
95
00:04:22,830 --> 00:04:24,790
yeah, it's Jack o' Connell.
96
00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:27,110
>> Will: Connor. Yes. I'm thinking about, I'm thinking about.
97
00:04:27,110 --> 00:04:30,110
>> Sarah : It's not even Connor, it's o' Connell. And
98
00:04:30,350 --> 00:04:32,590
the only reason why I knew that
99
00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:36,040
was because he, he, he like started
100
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,770
off on the show Skins and for long time
101
00:04:38,770 --> 00:04:41,690
listeners I, it is crazy to me how
102
00:04:41,770 --> 00:04:44,770
every so often I bring up that show which is a
103
00:04:44,770 --> 00:04:47,570
British show. The English version is
104
00:04:47,570 --> 00:04:50,410
trash. Okay. The only, the only
105
00:04:50,410 --> 00:04:53,370
good thing like you have to watch the British
106
00:04:53,370 --> 00:04:56,090
show and I will be bringing it up again
107
00:04:56,090 --> 00:04:58,570
next month because Will's going to make me go see
108
00:04:58,570 --> 00:05:01,410
Superman and Nicholas Holt, who's our new
109
00:05:01,490 --> 00:05:03,650
Lucas there, he started off
110
00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:06,950
Well he didn't technically about a boy but
111
00:05:07,910 --> 00:05:10,750
later in his teenage years he was
112
00:05:10,750 --> 00:05:12,550
the lead of, of Skins.
113
00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:15,630
>> Will: So yeah, thanks for correcting me. Yeah. My
114
00:05:15,630 --> 00:05:17,030
handwriting like failed me there.
115
00:05:18,310 --> 00:05:19,830
>> Sarah : It was just funny.
116
00:05:21,190 --> 00:05:24,150
As soon as you said like Sinners I was like
117
00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:27,670
I'm pretty sure Jack o' Connell is like
118
00:05:27,670 --> 00:05:29,190
the only white guy.
119
00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:32,330
>> Will: Yeah, he was, yeah. A couple other folks. Ye. He
120
00:05:32,330 --> 00:05:35,050
was the only one guy. He was very, he was very good in
121
00:05:35,050 --> 00:05:35,770
Sinners by the way.
122
00:05:35,770 --> 00:05:38,050
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah, he, he's, he's a really,
123
00:05:38,530 --> 00:05:40,620
really good actor and I was.
124
00:05:40,620 --> 00:05:43,500
>> Will: Hoping he would get it because I remember, I think I was, I was
125
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:46,420
seeing the Some of the speculation as far as like these
126
00:05:46,420 --> 00:05:49,380
actors who are up for the role, the lead in Clay
127
00:05:49,380 --> 00:05:52,340
Face. And he. And his name was mentioned quite a bit, and
128
00:05:52,340 --> 00:05:54,700
I was really hoping he'd get it because, I mean. I mean.
129
00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:57,390
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah, yeah. But,
130
00:05:57,790 --> 00:06:00,750
you know, we. We shall see
131
00:06:00,750 --> 00:06:03,670
how this, actor does, whenever
132
00:06:03,670 --> 00:06:04,790
that movie gets made.
133
00:06:05,110 --> 00:06:08,110
>> Will: Yeah, well, it's going in production. I mean, obviously, if
134
00:06:08,110 --> 00:06:10,630
they. They've gotten everything locked in now. So,
135
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,280
we'll be go. It is going to production in the UK
136
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:16,560
later this year. Of course, Supergirl is coming out next
137
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,700
year as well. but so, this. Yeah,
138
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:22,690
so it is happening. It's not. This is not one of those
139
00:06:22,690 --> 00:06:25,650
things like the Batman 2, which, you know, who knows when the hell is coming?
140
00:06:25,650 --> 00:06:27,170
But this one is actually coming.
141
00:06:29,730 --> 00:06:32,490
>> Sarah : Yeah, but we all know this is not.
142
00:06:32,490 --> 00:06:34,850
>> Will: This is not. This is not. This is not Black Adam.
143
00:06:36,530 --> 00:06:39,530
>> Sarah : No, I don't. I don't think it's that Black Adam. I wasn't
144
00:06:39,530 --> 00:06:42,050
even gonna go there. That wasn't there
145
00:06:42,210 --> 00:06:45,080
a, little Batgirl movie. Oh,
146
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,080
yeah, like no one has ever seen.
147
00:06:50,610 --> 00:06:51,010

00:07:39,220 --> 00:07:41,600
fifth and final season of, will go
166
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,220
immediately, go into production, once
167
00:07:44,220 --> 00:07:46,980
they've finally finished the,
168
00:07:46,930 --> 00:07:49,590
filming of the fourth season. So we won't have, like, a
169
00:07:49,590 --> 00:07:52,430
crazy long break like we've had between seasons two and
170
00:07:52,430 --> 00:07:55,350
three of Strange New Worlds because it's been like
171
00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:58,120
two years. and that part of that was due to the. To the writer
172
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,970
strike and then actor strike. But, yeah,
173
00:08:00,970 --> 00:08:03,890
I mean, it's. It seems that this is the route that.
174
00:08:04,050 --> 00:08:06,700
That the, the series. The show is going these days.
175
00:08:07,430 --> 00:08:10,150
But, Yeah, and the fifth season,
176
00:08:10,850 --> 00:08:13,840
will only have six episodes instead of ten.
177
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,000
So. Yeah, that's the. That's the late. I just wanted to
178
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,920
drop a little Star Trek, I know, in here on our main
179
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,160
show this week since there was,
180
00:08:22,830 --> 00:08:25,520
some things and I Know the the showrunners, when they announced
181
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,390
it, I think it was on Friday that this was, that Paramount
182
00:08:28,390 --> 00:08:31,380
plus was made this announcement. they just basically
183
00:08:31,380 --> 00:08:34,380
said from the beginning, Strange New World set out to honor what
184
00:08:34,380 --> 00:08:37,380
Star Trek has always stood for. Boundless curiosity, hope and
185
00:08:37,380 --> 00:08:40,060
the belief that a better future is possible. We're deeply
186
00:08:40,060 --> 00:08:43,060
grateful to Paramount plus for the chance to complete our five season
187
00:08:43,060 --> 00:08:46,020
mission just as we envisioned it, alongside our
188
00:08:46,020 --> 00:08:48,780
extraordinary cast and crew. And to the passionate fans who
189
00:08:48,780 --> 00:08:51,620
boldly joined us on this journey. Thank you. With three
190
00:08:51,620 --> 00:08:54,620
more spectacular seasons ahead for you to see and
191
00:08:54,620 --> 00:08:57,460
enjoy, the adventure is far from over. So
192
00:08:57,980 --> 00:09:00,930
you know, just my own speculation here is and also
193
00:09:00,930 --> 00:09:03,860
something I did mention at the Tribeca Film Festival this
194
00:09:03,860 --> 00:09:06,670
weekend. As far as the executive, production team,
195
00:09:07,430 --> 00:09:09,880
anybody who's watched Strange New World, spoiler alert,
196
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,160
series crew members show
197
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,480
up in the show.
198
00:09:16,930 --> 00:09:19,850
and including you know of course Paul Wesley as a
199
00:09:19,850 --> 00:09:22,060
cap, as a lieutenant
200
00:09:22,540 --> 00:09:25,510
James Kirk, Scotty showed up in
201
00:09:25,510 --> 00:09:28,230
the last season and he's actually Martin Quinn who
202
00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:30,670
plays Scotty's actually been elevated to a regular
203
00:09:30,990 --> 00:09:33,880
this this upcoming season. And of course Cecilia,
204
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,360
Gooding's been playing Uhura. Of course Spock is there played by
205
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,360
Ethan Peck. So I figure, I think by the end of the fifth
206
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,960
season, everybody from the original series will probably
207
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,040
be, as far as that crew will probably be in
208
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,980
the show. And one of the things they did mention at the
209
00:09:48,980 --> 00:09:51,820
film festival this past weekend, I don't know if it was joking or
210
00:09:51,820 --> 00:09:54,580
serious, but they're like, you know, we might do
211
00:09:54,580 --> 00:09:57,300
some further adventures with the original series
212
00:09:57,940 --> 00:10:00,860
team. so with, you know, obviously with the, with the new
213
00:10:00,860 --> 00:10:03,660
cast. So we'll see what happens there.
214
00:10:06,860 --> 00:10:09,500
>> Sarah : Awesome. Well, that's very exciting news
215
00:10:09,900 --> 00:10:12,870
and for all of you, Trekkies
216
00:10:12,870 --> 00:10:15,830
out there, all
217
00:10:15,830 --> 00:10:18,270
right, and that brings us to the main
218
00:10:18,350 --> 00:10:21,160
topic of tonight. the studio.
219
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,040
Season one, Episode five, the War.
220
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,360
Frustrated by her position in the office
221
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,400
office hierarchy, Quinn wages war against
222
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,430
Sal. I really like this episode
223
00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:36,470
and I, I thought to myself, why
224
00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:38,190
do I really like this episode?
225
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,960
And I was like, oh, okay, Matt
226
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,640
is around but he's not the focus.
227
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,280
But it's not like I don't like Matt,
228
00:10:50,680 --> 00:10:53,590
it's more that, and we were talking about this
229
00:10:53,590 --> 00:10:56,310
last week that his humor,
230
00:10:56,630 --> 00:10:59,590
Seth Rogen in particular, his humor doesn't always
231
00:10:59,670 --> 00:11:02,290
work for me. and this
232
00:11:02,290 --> 00:11:04,690
episode I finally got my first laugh.
233
00:11:05,510 --> 00:11:07,750
and it was when the burrito was thrown.
234
00:11:08,390 --> 00:11:11,030
Just because, just because, like when the
235
00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:13,950
Burrito gets thrown. It's just
236
00:11:13,950 --> 00:11:16,670
a great timing of hitting the
237
00:11:16,670 --> 00:11:19,550
guy right in the driver right in the face, and
238
00:11:19,550 --> 00:11:22,150
then driving straight through
239
00:11:22,310 --> 00:11:25,310
a film set. And it's just like, for
240
00:11:25,310 --> 00:11:28,150
whatever reason, I thought that timing played out
241
00:11:28,230 --> 00:11:28,950
perfectly.
242
00:11:29,190 --> 00:11:29,560
>> Will: Yeah.
243
00:11:29,940 --> 00:11:32,180
>> Sarah : and. And it finally made me laugh.
244
00:11:33,410 --> 00:11:36,370
but overall I, I can. I
245
00:11:36,370 --> 00:11:39,330
appreciated how, like, in a very
246
00:11:39,490 --> 00:11:41,810
office, like, way,
247
00:11:42,770 --> 00:11:45,640
we get these, we get more insight
248
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,720
into both Sal and Quinn
249
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,170
and and just they, they. They're
250
00:11:51,170 --> 00:11:54,130
able to go back and forth. There wasn't
251
00:11:54,130 --> 00:11:56,770
also. There also wasn't. I don't think
252
00:11:56,770 --> 00:11:59,530
Maya appeared at all. I don't think Catherine
253
00:11:59,530 --> 00:12:02,530
Han appeared at all. I think it was just like them three and
254
00:12:02,530 --> 00:12:05,530
a few other office workers. And
255
00:12:05,530 --> 00:12:07,770
then Matt was around and of course the
256
00:12:07,770 --> 00:12:10,350
directors, because you had Sal
257
00:12:10,590 --> 00:12:13,330
trying to rip off, Trying to get the
258
00:12:13,330 --> 00:12:16,250
director of Smile to make the ripoff of Smile
259
00:12:16,650 --> 00:12:19,290
while you had Quinn try to get her
260
00:12:19,450 --> 00:12:22,240
first green lit with bringing on, what,
261
00:12:22,470 --> 00:12:25,310
Owen. Yeah, yeah.
262
00:12:25,310 --> 00:12:28,270
To direct a. Who
263
00:12:28,830 --> 00:12:31,670
to direct his, like, first thing.
264
00:12:31,670 --> 00:12:34,430
But yeah, so. And you enjoyed this episode
265
00:12:34,430 --> 00:12:34,750
too.
266
00:12:35,229 --> 00:12:38,110
>> Will: I did, I did. Because you, you mentioned the office,
267
00:12:38,110 --> 00:12:40,950
and I think that was. That was part of it. It was
268
00:12:40,950 --> 00:12:43,870
that, that, that. That workplace. It was very
269
00:12:43,870 --> 00:12:46,680
relatable because it was. It reminded me of. Of.
270
00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:49,600
Of workplaces I've been in. You know, where you,
271
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,160
where you where cells, like the,
272
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,080
you know, you got Quinn, who's the young upand comer, who's
273
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,560
just trying to get
274
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:02,840
into the. The mix and, and try to, you know,
275
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,520
get, get her. Get this. You know, get this Owen.
276
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,400
Owen Klein a job. And, and.
277
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,360
And. And of course, S's like the old, the old guard.
278
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,000
He's like, yeah, I know how this, how the system
279
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,800
works. And, and yeah, we're.
280
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,520
We're ripping off. We're ripping off
281
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,400
Smile, but you know, but we'll just, you know,
282
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,280
we'll just call it Wink. And whenever he had that like, creepy
283
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,279
ass wink whenever he was, I, I couldn't. I
284
00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:31,080
wasn't able to get an asset for it. But it's just like super,
285
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:34,520
super cringe when I was, When I was watching the episode. But
286
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,560
man. Yeah, I, I agree. I mean, it just.
287
00:13:38,010 --> 00:13:40,570
All the beats really worked. And you're right, it was. Yeah, I think,
288
00:13:40,980 --> 00:13:43,980
it was good after. I mean, yeah, there was no Maya,
289
00:13:43,930 --> 00:13:46,760
there was no Patty this episode. but there were
290
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,520
just super relatable moments. Like, you know, like,
291
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,920
I'll think and some of the
292
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,640
cutthroatness of what people
293
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,640
will do to advance.
294
00:13:57,910 --> 00:14:00,590
and we all hear the horror stories and we could all share
295
00:14:00,590 --> 00:14:03,480
horror stories about things we've seen in the
296
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,440
office or in our workplaces where
297
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:08,880
people will do things like you know, Quinn
298
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,770
seeing that, you know, she knew that the Matt's assistant had
299
00:14:12,770 --> 00:14:15,130
kept her password and stuff on the little,
300
00:14:15,530 --> 00:14:18,370
on the sticky note on their computer and
301
00:14:18,370 --> 00:14:21,290
like cancel the appointment and so that they would like
302
00:14:21,290 --> 00:14:24,290
double, you know, in a double, you know, Matt was
303
00:14:24,290 --> 00:14:27,290
been trying to like get lunch or whatever with Chris Hemsworth.
304
00:14:27,490 --> 00:14:30,490
And so that was just a super funny moment because it's like,
305
00:14:30,490 --> 00:14:33,210
okay, I know people like that and,
306
00:14:33,210 --> 00:14:33,890
and so.
307
00:14:34,210 --> 00:14:37,010
>> Sarah : Who leave their password on their computer.
308
00:14:37,090 --> 00:14:39,970
>> Will: Yes, I do know people who are like that. I've seen it not, not
309
00:14:39,970 --> 00:14:41,370
my current job, but I've seen it in the.
310
00:14:41,370 --> 00:14:43,810
>> Sarah : Past where it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
311
00:14:44,210 --> 00:14:47,170
yeah. I, you know, the more
312
00:14:47,170 --> 00:14:50,090
I think about this episode, the more I think about
313
00:14:50,090 --> 00:14:52,530
how yes, Matt wasn't present. But it's
314
00:14:52,530 --> 00:14:54,800
interesting because the, the debate
315
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,200
between Sal and Quinn, yes on the
316
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,880
surface level it's about hierarchy and
317
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,080
the up and comer and the old dog.
318
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,150
But it's also two
319
00:15:08,150 --> 00:15:11,030
sides of where we've seen Matt
320
00:15:11,030 --> 00:15:13,500
in his new position, come head to head
321
00:15:13,500 --> 00:15:16,060
considering Quinn wants to
322
00:15:16,380 --> 00:15:18,860
like has a line about wanting to make
323
00:15:19,220 --> 00:15:21,660
good films and criticizes
324
00:15:21,660 --> 00:15:23,780
Sal's rip off
325
00:15:25,460 --> 00:15:27,940
and then he has to give her a lecture and
326
00:15:28,100 --> 00:15:31,100
remind her the fact that there are 11 Fast and Furious
327
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:33,140
movies that prove your theory wrong.
328
00:15:35,380 --> 00:15:38,180
Which is very good. So he is definitely on
329
00:15:38,180 --> 00:15:41,140
the like we're here to make money. And so
330
00:15:41,140 --> 00:15:43,060
a lot of their arguments
331
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,250
resembled the same back and forth that
332
00:15:47,250 --> 00:15:50,010
we saw in the first episode between Matt and
333
00:15:50,010 --> 00:15:52,810
Bryan Cranston's character. So
334
00:15:53,850 --> 00:15:56,650
it's I, I like how we're
335
00:15:56,650 --> 00:15:58,730
able to even see how
336
00:15:59,529 --> 00:16:02,490
so far Matt hasn't like surrounded himself
337
00:16:02,650 --> 00:16:05,010
necessarily around Ah
338
00:16:05,930 --> 00:16:06,730
yes, men.
339
00:16:06,890 --> 00:16:07,300
>> Will: Yeah.
340
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:09,540
>> Sarah : he did like in the first episode
341
00:16:09,700 --> 00:16:12,430
promote Korri Quinn and there's a reason and
342
00:16:12,430 --> 00:16:15,390
she's able to be that on his
343
00:16:15,390 --> 00:16:18,030
shoulder talking about like making good
344
00:16:18,030 --> 00:16:20,950
movies while Sal is also there
345
00:16:20,950 --> 00:16:23,790
to be like no, no, no, dude, you gotta also make
346
00:16:23,790 --> 00:16:26,670
the money. So, so I,
347
00:16:26,750 --> 00:16:29,590
I, I think that that's another reason
348
00:16:29,750 --> 00:16:32,390
why this episode works for a lot of people.
349
00:16:32,870 --> 00:16:35,870
>> Will: Yeah. And also know what, but you know, another thing too, as far
350
00:16:35,870 --> 00:16:38,720
as the interpersonal office dynamics and, and, and, and things
351
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,360
that to your, what I was saying about the old guard,
352
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,360
you know, s using
353
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,760
things that he knows will trigger Matt because
354
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,680
he's like, you know, you said the word lame. You Know, that word
355
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,440
is very triggering for Matt to just basically, like, again,
356
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:54,439
shoot.
357
00:16:54,439 --> 00:16:55,760
>> Sarah : You know, that was Quinn.
358
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,960
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. Excuse me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Quinn. Yeah.
359
00:16:59,420 --> 00:17:02,060
but, yeah, but my point stands that, you know, people
360
00:17:02,140 --> 00:17:05,010
know, like, what will get the boss triggered and,
361
00:17:05,010 --> 00:17:08,010
and, and use that to their advantage, you know, to be able
362
00:17:08,010 --> 00:17:10,860
to, you know, try to, to get their way
363
00:17:10,860 --> 00:17:12,860
as far as, you know, an assignment or whatever.
364
00:17:13,100 --> 00:17:15,980
>> Sarah : But that's also was triggering
365
00:17:15,980 --> 00:17:18,860
to Sal M. Too. Like,
366
00:17:19,180 --> 00:17:21,740
it's, it's that
367
00:17:22,060 --> 00:17:24,860
they, they do two things with that line. I love that
368
00:17:24,860 --> 00:17:27,180
line. It's why I wrote it down. It's because,
369
00:17:27,820 --> 00:17:30,230
like, on the one hand, yes,
370
00:17:32,150 --> 00:17:35,030
I see the way she even says it. I
371
00:17:35,030 --> 00:17:37,990
don't know. I think on a subconscious level, she knew
372
00:17:37,990 --> 00:17:40,710
that would touch a nerve because she's dealing with two
373
00:17:40,790 --> 00:17:43,670
old white men. Yeah.
374
00:17:43,670 --> 00:17:46,390
Who clearly also want to be cool.
375
00:17:46,550 --> 00:17:49,190
Like, she knows them. But I also.
376
00:17:49,750 --> 00:17:52,670
She threw it out because, like, it was, it felt
377
00:17:52,670 --> 00:17:55,500
like a natural response to that idea. Like, are you
378
00:17:55,500 --> 00:17:58,380
kidding me? Especially given the age difference.
379
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:02,880
and, and the way it was received. I like
380
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,800
how it then ties back into what we see
381
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,680
of Sal interacting with his daughters.
382
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,240
And so when he comes forward and
383
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,600
admits, like, why it's so
384
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,200
bothersome, everything that
385
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,160
Quinn's doing, like, it ties all
386
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,850
back to him, like,
387
00:18:22,330 --> 00:18:25,250
feeling as though he doesn't have
388
00:18:25,250 --> 00:18:28,170
that family unit together. He's failing
389
00:18:28,170 --> 00:18:30,810
there, and so his job is all he has. Like,
390
00:18:31,050 --> 00:18:34,050
like to what you said, there's a lot of
391
00:18:34,050 --> 00:18:36,930
different angles in this episode in terms of
392
00:18:36,930 --> 00:18:39,450
office politics that
393
00:18:39,850 --> 00:18:42,650
we see and have seen
394
00:18:42,650 --> 00:18:44,810
in our everyday lives as well.
395
00:18:45,570 --> 00:18:47,990
and, and then it just, like,
396
00:18:48,390 --> 00:18:51,350
it, it touches on kind of a
397
00:18:51,350 --> 00:18:54,070
discussion we had last week about Matt's
398
00:18:54,070 --> 00:18:57,070
ego because, and,
399
00:18:57,070 --> 00:18:59,910
and which carries through in the
400
00:18:59,910 --> 00:19:02,550
next episode, which is, I mean,
401
00:19:02,550 --> 00:19:04,950
IMDb even put it in their,
402
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,200
summary. Like, Matt's ego is put to the test
403
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,160
when his new doctor girlfriend brings him to a charity
404
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,040
gala. So we're
405
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,030
talking, we're gonna talk about the pediatric
406
00:19:17,510 --> 00:19:18,950
oncologist, which.
407
00:19:20,310 --> 00:19:22,900
Okay. I,
408
00:19:23,220 --> 00:19:25,940
I, I did a mental note
409
00:19:26,100 --> 00:19:28,980
to try to re. Watch some of this episode,
410
00:19:29,220 --> 00:19:32,220
because I'm gonna, I'm just gonna be honest with y' all. I don't
411
00:19:32,220 --> 00:19:34,740
know what happened. I was
412
00:19:34,740 --> 00:19:37,220
watching the episode, and
413
00:19:37,700 --> 00:19:40,540
then I saw where it was going. He. He
414
00:19:40,540 --> 00:19:43,300
bet on the golf. Golf, trip.
415
00:19:43,460 --> 00:19:46,380
He won. And then, and then
416
00:19:46,380 --> 00:19:49,300
there was arguments, blah, blah, blah. For
417
00:19:49,300 --> 00:19:51,900
whatever reason, it's like I blacked out. I
418
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:54,700
don't, I see him in the ambulance, and I'm like, wait a
419
00:19:54,700 --> 00:19:57,499
second. How I didn't
420
00:19:57,499 --> 00:20:00,260
see the hygiene setting curve.
421
00:20:01,780 --> 00:20:04,500
Like I saw him run into a waiter but like, and
422
00:20:04,500 --> 00:20:07,100
follow like. I don't know, I felt,
423
00:20:07,100 --> 00:20:09,980
I've like why am I, I feel like I'm missing gaps.
424
00:20:09,980 --> 00:20:12,870
I don't need a play by play. But I just find it
425
00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:15,550
funny that I like made it through the
426
00:20:15,550 --> 00:20:18,470
episode and then for some reason I have these holes. I'm like, well,
427
00:20:18,470 --> 00:20:19,750
how did that escalate?
428
00:20:20,150 --> 00:20:23,150
>> Will: It did escalate. It did escalate pretty quickly. I
429
00:20:23,150 --> 00:20:26,070
will, I agree. Yeah, because I mean he, because
430
00:20:26,150 --> 00:20:28,870
yeah, they were having the, the back and forth.
431
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,600
and, and, and of course he gets
432
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,370
to you know, throughout the, throughout the evening
433
00:20:35,370 --> 00:20:38,370
because you know, whenever we first start the episode they were,
434
00:20:38,990 --> 00:20:41,870
they were putting together a film of course. And you
435
00:20:41,870 --> 00:20:44,790
know, try, you know, they had, they're trying to get their own
436
00:20:44,790 --> 00:20:46,110
deadline to get the trailer done.
437
00:20:47,710 --> 00:20:50,510
And, and so it was. Yeah, but
438
00:20:50,510 --> 00:20:52,590
you're right. I mean we went from like
439
00:20:53,950 --> 00:20:56,830
everything was swimming and then it just escalates.
440
00:20:56,830 --> 00:20:59,510
The next thing you know you've like fallen over tables, blasted.
441
00:20:59,510 --> 00:21:02,110
And he's like, he wakes up in the,
442
00:21:02,110 --> 00:21:04,910
he's at, you know, the episode ends and he's got his hand bandage
443
00:21:04,910 --> 00:21:07,730
and, and yeah, he's gonna
444
00:21:07,730 --> 00:21:08,930
go, yeah.
445
00:21:08,930 --> 00:21:11,890
>> Sarah : And then he does the taunt like and you know what's going to be in that
446
00:21:11,890 --> 00:21:12,890
room? A screen.
447
00:21:13,130 --> 00:21:13,690
>> Will: Yep.
448
00:21:15,530 --> 00:21:18,200
>> Sarah : The. I like it was, it was
449
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,999
nice then to go from like such
450
00:21:20,999 --> 00:21:23,520
an office heavy episode into
451
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,320
Matt in his day to day life.
452
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,360
The one thing that bothered me though throughout
453
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:33,310
this episode is this show takes place in
454
00:21:33,310 --> 00:21:35,870
la. So
455
00:21:35,950 --> 00:21:38,750
you're telling me that
456
00:21:39,870 --> 00:21:42,790
all of those doctors who
457
00:21:42,790 --> 00:21:43,790
live in LA
458
00:21:45,790 --> 00:21:47,950
are just like
459
00:21:48,910 --> 00:21:51,750
they, they don't, they, they don't care
460
00:21:51,750 --> 00:21:54,190
at all about film and t, like,
461
00:21:54,510 --> 00:21:57,350
like I get it, they're smart and priorities
462
00:21:57,350 --> 00:22:00,080
and everything, but I'm just like you.
463
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,640
Technically. You could have been a doctor anywhere.
464
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,560
So. Why. I don't.
465
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,840
>> Will: Yeah, well, see, I, I, I, you
466
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,440
know, that's, you know,
467
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,520
we should, we should like, we should have our friend
468
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,360
Jackie, who's the actress, you know, she's a doctor but
469
00:22:17,360 --> 00:22:20,210
also you know, but
470
00:22:20,210 --> 00:22:23,130
she also lives in LA and just talk to someone who like lives
471
00:22:23,130 --> 00:22:26,010
in that world because I'll be very curious
472
00:22:26,010 --> 00:22:29,010
to see or, or you know, I
473
00:22:29,010 --> 00:22:31,770
have a buddy of mine, a good friend of mine lives in la and
474
00:22:32,910 --> 00:22:35,870
and it's funny, you
475
00:22:35,870 --> 00:22:38,870
know, they don't bring up like you're in Tinseltown and
476
00:22:38,870 --> 00:22:41,830
all that, but it's just sort of like it's Sort of like in your
477
00:22:41,830 --> 00:22:44,670
backyard, but it's just sort of like. It's kind of like
478
00:22:44,670 --> 00:22:47,350
no big deal for him. And he works at USC
479
00:22:47,350 --> 00:22:50,270
and actually works with. It's funny enough he actually works with.
480
00:22:50,590 --> 00:22:52,850
With Arnold. He's a professor in the
481
00:22:52,850 --> 00:22:54,170
Schwarzenegger Institute.
482
00:22:55,450 --> 00:22:58,250
>> Sarah : But I, I understand the
483
00:22:58,250 --> 00:23:01,050
no big deal about it and like
484
00:23:01,050 --> 00:23:02,490
that makes sense to me.
485
00:23:02,730 --> 00:23:03,210
>> Will: Yeah.
486
00:23:03,370 --> 00:23:06,050
>> Sarah : But this, the writing of these
487
00:23:06,050 --> 00:23:08,570
people was like
488
00:23:08,890 --> 00:23:11,650
intentionally not. Oh, no
489
00:23:11,650 --> 00:23:14,330
big deal, intentionally like disdain.
490
00:23:14,810 --> 00:23:17,800
>> Will: Yeah, well, I think that, yeah, well,
491
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,480
I think that was, I mean that was part of the, you know, with the.
492
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,800
Well, at the very, at the, at the framing, at the beginning of the
493
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,800
episode because, you know, because you had
494
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,360
two, two people from two different worlds.
495
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:30,480
>> Sarah : Yeah.
496
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,399
>> Will: Yeah. And. And so I think it, I think it
497
00:23:33,399 --> 00:23:36,210
was just. It they used that to
498
00:23:36,210 --> 00:23:39,210
just, I think really
499
00:23:39,210 --> 00:23:41,490
just show that tension between, you know,
500
00:23:42,210 --> 00:23:45,170
you know, where you have Matt who like, you know, something
501
00:23:45,170 --> 00:23:48,000
you said earlier that we're out of the office now and
502
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,680
we're actually out in the,
503
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:55,040
you know, regular world. Even though these people are like
504
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,280
super high achieving medical
505
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,540
professionals. but
506
00:24:00,020 --> 00:24:02,660
you know, in Matt's world, you know, he's a, you know, he
507
00:24:03,140 --> 00:24:05,820
really, he's in control in that
508
00:24:05,820 --> 00:24:08,660
studio environment and stuff. And he's the ball, he's the boss,
509
00:24:08,660 --> 00:24:11,660
he's the guy. And then when he gets over here with the. These other
510
00:24:11,660 --> 00:24:14,510
folks, they're like, you know, it was almost.
511
00:24:14,590 --> 00:24:17,510
And sometimes when I was watching episode it was just like nicey,
512
00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:20,510
nice pat, pat on your head. Like, you know, we actually,
513
00:24:20,750 --> 00:24:23,630
we have a real job. We, we are, we are heroes here.
514
00:24:23,630 --> 00:24:26,590
We save kids from cancer and, and you're just a guy
515
00:24:26,590 --> 00:24:29,410
who just, just makes movies and yeah, it's all nice and
516
00:24:29,410 --> 00:24:32,170
stuff, but you know, you don't know pressure.
517
00:24:32,170 --> 00:24:35,090
We know pressure. And it was just. For me it was just like
518
00:24:35,650 --> 00:24:37,570
that through line throughout was just.
519
00:24:38,620 --> 00:24:41,540
It really fed when I think back to some of the discussions
520
00:24:41,540 --> 00:24:44,540
we've had about Matt and his, and his, his insecurities
521
00:24:44,780 --> 00:24:47,260
like, and, and things.
522
00:24:49,500 --> 00:24:52,500
I think it just really, to me it just like pulled everything ahead as
523
00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:54,990
far as like. Okay, yeah, it made those other earlier
524
00:24:54,990 --> 00:24:57,870
episodes really stand out
525
00:24:57,870 --> 00:25:00,750
more to me. And I really, like I said one of the things I
526
00:25:00,750 --> 00:25:03,550
didn't say at the beginning. I mean this, this block that we watched this week
527
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,760
so are probably my three favorite episodes of the season so far.
528
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,040
>> Sarah : Right. Yeah. Like, I understand the
529
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,920
tension and, and the, the
530
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,320
patronizing and, or
531
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,560
patronizing of Matt
532
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,800
and they, that they get the
533
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,720
viewer to, to kind
534
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,200
of view these people through his perspective
535
00:25:26,360 --> 00:25:28,600
of, of really, like,
536
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,600
belittling him and making him and his
537
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,240
job feel so much smaller.
538
00:25:34,550 --> 00:25:37,360
And, and it plays on that insecurity that they've
539
00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:39,720
already touched on in previous episodes.
540
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,280
I just for, and
541
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,800
I understand this is a comedy, but
542
00:25:46,360 --> 00:25:49,159
I don't know why we couldn't have had him a
543
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,960
better project that he had to be on the phone about
544
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,760
than like, like the fact
545
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,680
that I want to be
546
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,480
on Matt's side, but it's really hard to when he's
547
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,435
making that type of shit movie.
548
00:26:02,435 --> 00:26:02,590
>> Will: Right.
549
00:26:02,740 --> 00:26:03,620
>> Sarah : Like, pun intended.
550
00:26:03,940 --> 00:26:04,380
>> Will: Yeah.
551
00:26:04,380 --> 00:26:04,740
>> Sarah : So.
552
00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:08,580
>> Will: Well, see, that's just it too, because, I mean, while he's sitting there
553
00:26:08,660 --> 00:26:11,630
and he was trying to, like, I, think that was the genius to me about
554
00:26:11,630 --> 00:26:14,510
this episode because he, he was trying to still
555
00:26:14,510 --> 00:26:17,070
make, make it feel relevant by saying, look,
556
00:26:17,530 --> 00:26:20,240
I am trying to help you all out with all this medical
557
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,240
disinformation out here, you know,
558
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:25,800
and, and, and, and, you know, I'm, you know,
559
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,680
showing how the art can, like, be used for, for good
560
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,080
things, even though it was a Johnny Knoxville movie.
561
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,010
>> Sarah : But, right, right, like,
562
00:26:34,330 --> 00:26:36,970
like, with that line, I would have
563
00:26:37,290 --> 00:26:40,250
appreciated better had it, had I been able
564
00:26:40,250 --> 00:26:43,220
to, because as a viewer, you know what the movie is, and you're
565
00:26:43,220 --> 00:26:46,140
like, that's a, that's a stretch. Like, I
566
00:26:46,140 --> 00:26:49,100
don't understand. I, I, I mean, that's
567
00:26:49,100 --> 00:26:52,100
brought up at the beginning of the episode as well. So
568
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:54,060
it's just, I mean, for whatever reason,
569
00:26:54,780 --> 00:26:57,640
that plot point didn't work for, for me.
570
00:26:57,670 --> 00:27:00,530
I understand why they did it, but it just,
571
00:27:00,930 --> 00:27:03,880
yeah, it didn't, carry over to make
572
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,790
me, that supportive of Matt.
573
00:27:06,270 --> 00:27:09,190
>> Will: I don't see. Yeah. So, you know, it's funny,
574
00:27:09,190 --> 00:27:12,189
I, I wasn't, it wasn't where I was like, even feeling
575
00:27:12,670 --> 00:27:15,230
supportive of Matt. I mean, I, I, I get where,
576
00:27:15,470 --> 00:27:18,350
I get where he was coming from, trying to, trying
577
00:27:18,350 --> 00:27:21,350
to make himself and you
578
00:27:21,350 --> 00:27:23,940
know, and like you said, I am the, the
579
00:27:24,260 --> 00:27:27,140
summary of the episode really hits it. I mean,
580
00:27:27,220 --> 00:27:29,940
it really, you know, it is really
581
00:27:29,940 --> 00:27:32,660
dealing with his ego and stuff. So. Yeah, I mean,
582
00:27:32,660 --> 00:27:35,540
yeah, and so I don't know if it was where I
583
00:27:35,540 --> 00:27:38,420
was like, I wasn't feeling sympathetic towards Matt during
584
00:27:38,420 --> 00:27:41,060
the episode. I was like, I mean, I, I, I,
585
00:27:41,140 --> 00:27:44,060
maybe, maybe not sympathetic is the right word. I,
586
00:27:44,060 --> 00:27:45,620
wasn't like, agreeing with him.
587
00:27:46,660 --> 00:27:48,100
>> Sarah : No, but you were on his side.
588
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,240
>> Will: Yeah, but I see where he was coming from.
589
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,000
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah, yeah, like, and I, I
590
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,720
did, I did, like, like the
591
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,480
remark. People in the arts, we Fund your little science
592
00:27:58,480 --> 00:27:59,160
projects.
593
00:27:59,160 --> 00:27:59,880
>> Will: Yeah, yeah.
594
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,520
>> Sarah : And. And I wish
595
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,720
that it delved more into that.
596
00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:08,200
Just this idea. Like,
597
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,960
yes, what we do is not
598
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:13,880
life saving. However,
599
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:18,200
like, we make the money that allows
600
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,880
you to do what you do through charity.
601
00:28:21,360 --> 00:28:24,160
So. So, like,
602
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,800
like, they could have done some very interesting
603
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,610
things there. and granted this has been renewed
604
00:28:29,610 --> 00:28:32,490
for season two and we still have more episodes to come, so maybe
605
00:28:32,490 --> 00:28:35,450
they will. But, like, I wish they
606
00:28:35,450 --> 00:28:37,010
had played more into that,
607
00:28:38,410 --> 00:28:41,330
as opposed to some of the other stuff. But
608
00:28:41,330 --> 00:28:44,170
I also, I. Matt is a giant man
609
00:28:44,170 --> 00:28:47,170
child. So what you do. What you do.
610
00:28:47,970 --> 00:28:50,730
and then that brings us to the last episode
611
00:28:50,730 --> 00:28:53,730
and I. Your point earlier about how you
612
00:28:53,730 --> 00:28:56,210
think, like, these three episodes are so far
613
00:28:56,450 --> 00:28:59,250
your favorite that we've seen. I
614
00:28:59,250 --> 00:29:01,730
completely agree. Like, these. The.
615
00:29:01,970 --> 00:29:04,930
The episodes are getting better and better.
616
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,990
and, of course, after I mentioned last
617
00:29:08,990 --> 00:29:11,790
week that we haven't talked about Kool Aid, the
618
00:29:11,790 --> 00:29:14,070
seventh episode, titled Casting,
619
00:29:14,470 --> 00:29:17,230
is all about Kool Aid. As the team
620
00:29:17,230 --> 00:29:20,150
scrambles to come up with a movie cast for the movie
621
00:29:20,390 --> 00:29:22,630
that won't offend anyone.
622
00:29:23,270 --> 00:29:25,990
And now, now the.
623
00:29:26,310 --> 00:29:28,310
This was fascinating.
624
00:29:29,590 --> 00:29:32,520
This, this was really just. I want
625
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,400
more of this.
626
00:29:33,780 --> 00:29:34,020
>> Will: Yes.
627
00:29:34,020 --> 00:29:36,780
>> Sarah : As someone who loves movies and loves
628
00:29:36,780 --> 00:29:39,620
TV shows, the. To
629
00:29:39,620 --> 00:29:42,100
get an insight about this kind of
630
00:29:42,100 --> 00:29:44,580
logic, especially in this day and age,
631
00:29:45,140 --> 00:29:48,020
like, you know, these kind of conversations
632
00:29:48,100 --> 00:29:50,980
happen. And so I thought. I thought this
633
00:29:50,980 --> 00:29:53,780
episode, just was. Was really
634
00:29:54,020 --> 00:29:56,860
s. Executed in such a
635
00:29:56,860 --> 00:29:57,620
smart way.
636
00:29:58,270 --> 00:29:58,590
>> Will: Yeah.
637
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,400
>> Sarah : because. And it all starts with
638
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,200
Maya looking at the board and being like.
639
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,680
And. And. And being like,
640
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,400
oh, yeah,
641
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,160
cool. Ice Cube is black.
642
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:14,800
>> Will: Yeah.
643
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,240
>> Sarah : No, no, you can't say that.
644
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:17,040
>> Will: You can't say that.
645
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,480
>> Sarah : And then. And then like, he. And then Matt's
646
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,320
like, oh, my God, he's black. Is this
647
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,280
racist? Did we do something racist?
648
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,240
Oh, my God. And yeah. And
649
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,000
then the irony of it all.
650
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:35,960
>> Will: Yeah.
651
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,920
>> Sarah : At the end of it, it's not even. Like,
652
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,000
the cast wasn't the big issue. It was
653
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,520
the fact that Matt allowed the director
654
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,240
to hire AI to replace
655
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:47,960
animators.
656
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:49,080
>> Will: Yep.
657
00:30:50,530 --> 00:30:51,970
>> Sarah : very smart episode.
658
00:30:52,130 --> 00:30:54,490
>> Will: Yeah, very, very smart episode. I mean,
659
00:30:55,610 --> 00:30:58,290
did. I mean, it's just, you know, because it.
660
00:30:58,690 --> 00:31:01,690
All the things, you know, we see it on social media, you
661
00:31:01,690 --> 00:31:04,530
know, with like, for, you know, think. I think, like Snow White recently
662
00:31:04,690 --> 00:31:07,620
as far as, you know, the issues there. I mean, when there's
663
00:31:07,620 --> 00:31:10,460
any number of, like, you know, fill in the blank
664
00:31:10,460 --> 00:31:13,180
project. I mean, think about Ghost in the show with, like, Scarlett
665
00:31:13,180 --> 00:31:15,380
Johansson. I mean, movies will literally.
666
00:31:16,500 --> 00:31:19,470
>> Sarah : Wasn't that one of the big, talking points with
667
00:31:19,470 --> 00:31:20,350
the Strikes.
668
00:31:21,150 --> 00:31:22,270
>> Will: Oh, the AI.
669
00:31:22,670 --> 00:31:23,710
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah.
670
00:31:23,710 --> 00:31:26,550
>> Will: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the strikes. I mean this was so,
671
00:31:26,550 --> 00:31:29,310
it was so on point with so many different things. I mean, even
672
00:31:29,310 --> 00:31:31,790
now with like, even out with,
673
00:31:32,190 --> 00:31:35,120
with with some of the video game stuff and,
674
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,000
and, and, and voiceover work. And I mean
675
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,890
the AI is still a big, big, big issue. And
676
00:31:40,970 --> 00:31:43,810
so this, this, this film like hits on. This
677
00:31:43,810 --> 00:31:46,170
episode hits on so, so many things that.
678
00:31:46,810 --> 00:31:49,520
Yeah. it, it, it, I. It was.
679
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,480
Yeah. And it was just like. Well, you.
680
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,239
It's, it's the, it's, it's the. Well, it was the
681
00:31:55,239 --> 00:31:57,200
well meaning, well intentioned
682
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,200
thing of, of you know, white people. White people.
683
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:04,560
>> Sarah : I can say it, you can see it.
684
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:07,880
I can say.
685
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,850
>> Will: Yeah, it was like. Yeah. you know, thinking about
686
00:32:10,850 --> 00:32:13,770
Juneteenth coming up here, you know, because it's like after George
687
00:32:13,770 --> 00:32:16,530
Floyd, it was just like, you know, it was like you
688
00:32:16,530 --> 00:32:19,250
create a holiday. But that wasn't what we wanted.
689
00:32:19,330 --> 00:32:22,130
>> Sarah : Right. Yeah, yeah,
690
00:32:23,170 --> 00:32:25,970
yeah. I just. And then, and
691
00:32:25,970 --> 00:32:28,970
then every time, like, I think it
692
00:32:28,970 --> 00:32:31,970
was Sal who always brought up this is why we need
693
00:32:31,970 --> 00:32:32,930
to go lesbian.
694
00:32:36,270 --> 00:32:39,070
Lesbian. And we can have an adopted
695
00:32:39,070 --> 00:32:41,790
Asian kid. And, and then
696
00:32:41,790 --> 00:32:44,790
it's like, oh, well, now we have the entire Kool
697
00:32:44,790 --> 00:32:45,950
Aid family. Black.
698
00:32:46,190 --> 00:32:46,910
>> Will: Black. Yeah,
699
00:32:49,230 --> 00:32:52,190
they go to the. Yeah. So then they go to the, they go to, you know,
700
00:32:52,190 --> 00:32:54,640
they go to the black guy in the room. It's like, it's this offensive.
701
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:56,240
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah.
702
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,640
>> Will: And then they go to Quinn. It's disappointed.
703
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,550
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah, yeah. But
704
00:33:03,750 --> 00:33:06,390
it's just hadn't.
705
00:33:06,700 --> 00:33:08,700
I was, I was listening to,
706
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,530
the. That Was Us podcast this morning because they
707
00:33:13,530 --> 00:33:14,850
dropped a new episode.
708
00:33:15,010 --> 00:33:15,569
>> Will: Okay.
709
00:33:16,290 --> 00:33:19,280
>> Sarah : And they, they brought up
710
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,640
casting and
711
00:33:24,170 --> 00:33:27,010
and just how as actors, like in
712
00:33:27,010 --> 00:33:29,290
this day and age, social media and
713
00:33:29,930 --> 00:33:32,770
the casting directors and the
714
00:33:32,770 --> 00:33:35,770
people who are hiring, like, I'm surprised
715
00:33:35,770 --> 00:33:38,530
this episode didn't go there, but I
716
00:33:38,530 --> 00:33:41,210
also know that they got held back a little bit
717
00:33:41,370 --> 00:33:44,290
about like these days it's
718
00:33:44,290 --> 00:33:47,290
like, oh, let me see your headshot. But also let me
719
00:33:47,290 --> 00:33:50,250
see your Instagram account and your Twitter account or
720
00:33:50,250 --> 00:33:53,240
X, account so we can know how many followers you have.
721
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,480
So we can know like how many eyes are
722
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,480
bringing. You are bringing people to the
723
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,480
project. And, and then we're going to need this amount
724
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,920
of people to,
725
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,319
to really get this, this
726
00:34:08,210 --> 00:34:10,510
project off the ground. So
727
00:34:11,070 --> 00:34:13,790
like, it'll be interesting to.
728
00:34:13,870 --> 00:34:16,470
Especially with both Sal and
729
00:34:16,470 --> 00:34:16,990
Matt.
730
00:34:17,460 --> 00:34:17,780
>> Will: Yeah.
731
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,190
>> Sarah : as these older white characters
732
00:34:20,910 --> 00:34:23,630
to, to see how, they
733
00:34:23,630 --> 00:34:26,630
talk about how Hollywood has changed
734
00:34:26,630 --> 00:34:27,710
due to social media.
735
00:34:28,270 --> 00:34:31,110
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. I was, I was thinking about that too. I
736
00:34:31,110 --> 00:34:34,020
was I was listening to some folks talk about Mia Goth,
737
00:34:34,020 --> 00:34:36,830
who was, you know, recently cast in Star wars. And that
738
00:34:36,830 --> 00:34:39,830
was that same point about the, the, the
739
00:34:39,830 --> 00:34:42,680
influencer culture. and, and is it
740
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,560
excluding, you know, real talent?
741
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,440
Because it's not about the talent. Sometimes
742
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,480
you're right. I mean, you know that like their discussion is like, what
743
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,960
do you bring now as far as your social media? Because
744
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,320
that's just, you know, such a. And I think maybe one of
745
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,200
the. Didn't. Did Maya. Didn't they touch on that a little bit?
746
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,080
Maybe in an earlier episode. I have to go back and re. Watch the series.
747
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,530
But, but you know, Maya might.
748
00:35:05,530 --> 00:35:08,450
>> Sarah : Have said something, but they didn't.
749
00:35:08,930 --> 00:35:11,930
Like even if she has a line about it, they could
750
00:35:11,930 --> 00:35:14,370
do an entire episode because it's so
751
00:35:14,530 --> 00:35:17,490
prominent and it could go in a few different ways
752
00:35:17,490 --> 00:35:20,290
about it. But it's something
753
00:35:20,450 --> 00:35:23,330
else that I've been watching lately is
754
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,680
kind of funny. Started there in the room in
755
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,280
review of Superman.
756
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:29,160
>> Will: Okay.
757
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,460
>> Sarah : So. And and yeah, this is my other
758
00:35:32,460 --> 00:35:34,950
go to for long term, long time
759
00:35:34,950 --> 00:35:37,410
listeners. if you're.
760
00:35:37,730 --> 00:35:40,410
And believe me. Okay. This is one of those
761
00:35:40,410 --> 00:35:43,170
things. Greg Miller is obsessed with Superman.
762
00:35:43,730 --> 00:35:46,530
So that episode I think is close to
763
00:35:46,530 --> 00:35:47,410
three hours long.
764
00:35:47,570 --> 00:35:48,850
>> Will: Oh gosh. Yeah.
765
00:35:48,850 --> 00:35:51,260
>> Sarah : And he, they talk about
766
00:35:51,740 --> 00:35:53,100
Marlon Brando.
767
00:35:54,380 --> 00:35:57,020
Okay. And they talk about
768
00:35:58,300 --> 00:36:00,890
some of the, especially the Christopher
769
00:36:00,890 --> 00:36:03,550
Reeve interview where he
770
00:36:03,550 --> 00:36:06,070
talks a little bit about Brando. And it's like
771
00:36:06,070 --> 00:36:08,510
clearly they didn't have the best working relationship
772
00:36:08,990 --> 00:36:11,510
and just this idea that Marlon
773
00:36:11,510 --> 00:36:14,270
Brando. We didn't have social media
774
00:36:14,430 --> 00:36:15,070
back then.
775
00:36:15,230 --> 00:36:15,590
>> Will: Right.
776
00:36:15,590 --> 00:36:18,510
>> Sarah : But that actor was in such
777
00:36:18,510 --> 00:36:21,310
a place with the, with
778
00:36:21,350 --> 00:36:22,230
the journalists.
779
00:36:22,630 --> 00:36:23,150
>> Will: Yeah.
780
00:36:23,150 --> 00:36:25,950
>> Sarah : That he managed to get anything
781
00:36:25,950 --> 00:36:28,790
he wanted. And like if he came to set, if
782
00:36:28,790 --> 00:36:31,750
they wanted him to be. Look a certain way,
783
00:36:32,470 --> 00:36:35,200
he, like he didn't care. He would just come, however
784
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,240
he wanted to. So. So we
785
00:36:38,240 --> 00:36:40,880
go from that to. In this day and age
786
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,400
where, where
787
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,840
in a way it hasn't changed because
788
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,840
now it's just like, oh, they're allowed to
789
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,120
do that because they're bringing 15 million
790
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,120
followers to this project.
791
00:36:56,010 --> 00:36:58,490
Yeah. It's just,
792
00:36:58,890 --> 00:37:01,850
it's, it's crazy how technology
793
00:37:02,170 --> 00:37:04,570
has changed the world
794
00:37:05,050 --> 00:37:08,010
yet also not because
795
00:37:08,010 --> 00:37:10,250
like we're still humans and so our
796
00:37:10,250 --> 00:37:13,210
behaviors are not that far different
797
00:37:13,370 --> 00:37:15,720
than before the technology boom.
798
00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:18,680
>> Will: yeah, that's a good point. I mean, you're right. I mean it really is, it's just
799
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,160
plug in different. Yeah. I mean it just,
800
00:37:22,700 --> 00:37:25,580
the dynamic is the same as you said it's just instead of it,
801
00:37:25,900 --> 00:37:28,700
you know, back in the day, it would just be like. Because
802
00:37:29,820 --> 00:37:32,820
you would need you. You would have to have that, that the movie
803
00:37:32,820 --> 00:37:35,820
star. I mean, this is the whole. And I wonder too, if the studio is going to get into this
804
00:37:35,820 --> 00:37:38,820
as well about having, you
805
00:37:38,820 --> 00:37:41,660
know, as far as casting, I know this was. The issue with, was
806
00:37:41,660 --> 00:37:43,980
race with this, this
807
00:37:44,220 --> 00:37:47,030
episode, but, having the bankable movie
808
00:37:47,030 --> 00:37:49,600
star because, you know, back, you know,
809
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,200
before, you really did need to have like
810
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,960
the name like, you know, like a Tom Cruise or a
811
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,930
Harrison Ford or whoever, you know, you know, fill in the blank.
812
00:37:58,930 --> 00:38:01,850
Actor, Actress. Now it's like you said, I mean,
813
00:38:01,850 --> 00:38:04,730
it's, it's, it's like the influencer, you
814
00:38:04,730 --> 00:38:07,690
know, who has the most, the most social media followers. Not
815
00:38:07,690 --> 00:38:10,530
necessarily who's the, not necessarily who's the most bankable
816
00:38:11,010 --> 00:38:13,650
star to get, you know, get people butts and seats
817
00:38:13,650 --> 00:38:14,050
so.
818
00:38:15,090 --> 00:38:17,410
>> Sarah : Well, are there bankable stars
819
00:38:17,490 --> 00:38:18,210
anymore?
820
00:38:18,370 --> 00:38:19,810
>> Will: That's just. Yeah, I don't think.
821
00:38:20,370 --> 00:38:23,170
>> Sarah : Yeah, because even Robert
822
00:38:23,170 --> 00:38:26,090
Downey Jr. Back in the day, he, he
823
00:38:26,090 --> 00:38:29,090
leaves adventures. He's the biggest star on the planet.
824
00:38:29,090 --> 00:38:31,730
He goes and makes a few movies. Nobody cares.
825
00:38:31,970 --> 00:38:34,800
Yeah, like, the reason
826
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,880
why the stars are
827
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,800
disappearing, I don't think is because of influencers or
828
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,690
anything. I think it's because of ip.
829
00:38:43,090 --> 00:38:44,050
>> Will: Exactly. Yeah.
830
00:38:44,050 --> 00:38:47,010
>> Sarah : And there's, there's. Yeah, you can
831
00:38:47,010 --> 00:38:49,090
bring somebody's name to a project,
832
00:38:49,890 --> 00:38:52,370
but their name ain't gonna
833
00:38:52,530 --> 00:38:55,050
be as big of a seller as Captain
834
00:38:55,050 --> 00:38:55,730
America.
835
00:38:55,890 --> 00:38:58,730
>> Will: Yep. Or, or, or, or, or Kool Aid.
836
00:38:58,730 --> 00:38:59,810
Which, which.
837
00:38:59,970 --> 00:39:02,690
>> Sarah : Or Kool Aid, like just like Barbie,
838
00:39:02,850 --> 00:39:03,490
you know.
839
00:39:03,810 --> 00:39:06,730
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I'm glad they brought it. Yeah, I'm glad they brought
840
00:39:06,730 --> 00:39:09,720
the, brought it back back to. Because I was wondering. To your, you
841
00:39:09,720 --> 00:39:12,640
know, you asked the question last week. So whenever I watched the episode this
842
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,440
week where Kool Aid has returned, I'm like, yes, we're back to
843
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,280
that issue. You know, so again, that, that also touches on
844
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,920
the ip. I mean, to your point that, that,
845
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,839
that's so. There was just so many, there's so
846
00:39:23,839 --> 00:39:26,520
many things in this episode where
847
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,650
that, that, that that did work and they did have, you know, and
848
00:39:29,650 --> 00:39:32,530
speaking of like the name, they did have a name with, you know,
849
00:39:32,530 --> 00:39:35,520
you know, cast an Ice Cube to, to,
850
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,040
to be the voice of, of Kool Aid. So
851
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,480
the Kool Aid man. So yeah, so it had so many
852
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,480
elements and, and I loved Ice Cube's response too, whenever
853
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,440
he, whenever he realized that Nic stole, you know, when, you know,
854
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,400
the Reddit found out that AI was going to be
855
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,200
used to animate. And, you know, it's just like AI,
856
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,200
you know, so it's just. And. And Nic
857
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,200
Stoler like, you know, creeping off the stage and Matt just, like, standing
858
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,140
there and just like, Just like the emperor. No clothes at that point.
859
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:06,100
>> Sarah : We're gonna, we're gonna see Sandra O
860
00:40:06,100 --> 00:40:08,940
eventually, right? Because I love that her head
861
00:40:08,940 --> 00:40:11,500
shot was on there. And she's the voice
862
00:40:12,060 --> 00:40:14,770
of, Debbie from Invincible.
863
00:40:14,930 --> 00:40:17,850
>> Will: She is. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And, yeah,
864
00:40:17,850 --> 00:40:20,610
and there was another, you know, the. Actually the person who asked
865
00:40:20,930 --> 00:40:23,930
about the AI as soon as they were like,
866
00:40:23,930 --> 00:40:26,210
wearing the Homelander costume at the comic.
867
00:40:26,770 --> 00:40:29,570
>> Sarah : Yeah, yeah. And. And you.
868
00:40:29,570 --> 00:40:32,520
Homelander. And I'm like, oh, oh, my God. Homelander's in
869
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:32,760
the.
870
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,960
>> Will: Seth. Ro. Seth rooster on
871
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:37,560
the Voice.
872
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,920
>> Sarah : I. I hope everyone took note of back.
873
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,800
I think even in the pilot when I brought up,
874
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,600
like, there better be a crossover.
875
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:47,480
>> Will: Yeah.
876
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,200
>> Sarah : With the boys. Like, this has to happen.
877
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,520
Like Antony Star, please stand up. Okay.
878
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,000
>> Will: Season two. Season two.
879
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,570
>> Sarah : yeah. All right, well, unless you had
880
00:41:01,570 --> 00:41:04,010
any more hot takes or
881
00:41:04,170 --> 00:41:07,170
anything more to discuss, I'm. I'm
882
00:41:07,170 --> 00:41:10,090
good to wrap up. I mean, it was short,
883
00:41:10,090 --> 00:41:11,290
but it was sweet.
884
00:41:11,850 --> 00:41:14,850
>> Will: Yeah, well. Oh, that's the last thing I'll say about the
885
00:41:14,850 --> 00:41:17,770
show. These episodes, the run times have been really good. There's
886
00:41:17,770 --> 00:41:20,330
only been, you know, they're bringing back the 20 plus
887
00:41:20,330 --> 00:41:23,150
minute comedy. You don't need to stretch it out. You don't. You know,
888
00:41:23,150 --> 00:41:25,230
that's the other thing I do appreciate about these episodes.
889
00:41:25,790 --> 00:41:28,750
>> Sarah : Yeah, I, I agree as well, is
890
00:41:28,750 --> 00:41:30,800
that, with the pace,
891
00:41:31,590 --> 00:41:34,180
they, have definitely structured their
892
00:41:34,180 --> 00:41:36,380
episodes very well
893
00:41:37,020 --> 00:41:39,740
and arguably are structure structuring
894
00:41:39,820 --> 00:41:42,690
the season, very well as. Because
895
00:41:42,690 --> 00:41:45,610
we, we know we're headed in a direction, especially with this
896
00:41:45,610 --> 00:41:48,510
cool koolaid direction. I mean, we saw it from. It
897
00:41:48,510 --> 00:41:51,350
was just an idea. And now we're going through casting
898
00:41:52,310 --> 00:41:54,990
and now we're. We're waiting for it to get,
899
00:41:54,990 --> 00:41:57,010
like, really green lit.
900
00:41:57,810 --> 00:42:00,290
now will it get made? I don't know.
901
00:42:03,250 --> 00:42:06,010
Here's another thing I'm waiting to resurface. Like
902
00:42:06,010 --> 00:42:08,450
the, the script of Jamestown.
903
00:42:08,690 --> 00:42:11,410
Yeah, that's come out of
904
00:42:11,410 --> 00:42:14,250
nowhere, so. All
905
00:42:14,250 --> 00:42:17,090
right, well, next week we will be back to wrap
906
00:42:17,470 --> 00:42:20,280
this season with the final three episodes, before
907
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,440
we. We jump into,
908
00:42:23,260 --> 00:42:25,260
the next Marvel project,
909
00:42:28,340 --> 00:42:30,500
which is called. What is the next one called?
910
00:42:30,540 --> 00:42:31,420
>> Will: Ironheart.
911
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:34,140
>> Sarah : Ironheart. Yes. I was like, it's called Iron
912
00:42:34,220 --> 00:42:35,340
something, but I. Yeah.
913
00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:38,340
>> Will: Iron Heart. Yeah. Speaking of Robert Downey Jr. He actually, you know, he
914
00:42:38,340 --> 00:42:40,900
was. He was. He. I think he gave a shout out to
915
00:42:40,900 --> 00:42:43,670
Dominique, the actress who plays Riri, on his
916
00:42:43,670 --> 00:42:45,150
socials this week. Speaking of socials.
917
00:42:45,150 --> 00:42:47,970
>> Sarah : Oh, that's sweet. Yeah, that's sweet. That
918
00:42:47,970 --> 00:42:50,970
show needs some help because, man, they have not done a good
919
00:42:50,970 --> 00:42:51,890
job marketing.
920
00:42:52,050 --> 00:42:52,450
