T3 59: Top 10 Short-Lived TV Shows

Sometimes things don’t work out, for a lot of reasons. Good ol’ fashioned creative differences, tragic deaths, that sort of stuff. Sometimes they don’t work out for bullshit reasons. Like in the case of Arrested Development, which was cancelled because it was too good, I guess. But now it’s back, so that’s weird. Anyway, in honor of that, and of the cancellation of Happy Endings (boo), and I guess the beginning the summer and the great TV drouth that comes with it every year, we bring you a list of our favorite short-lived shows. That’s right, T3 is back, baby!

Good Movie/Bad Movie: Bromances

Another week, another episode of something that’s not Top Ten Thursdays. This week, join Colin and I as we compare another two movies with very little in common in another episode of Good Movie/Bad Movie. Our focus this time? The summer action showcase that is Fast and Furious 6, and the significantly more down-to-earth indie darling Frances Ha. Can you guess which one is the good movie and which one is the bad movie? If I told you now, it would ruin the purpose of the show.

Edit: I fixed a few weird audio moments, if you haven’t listened to this episode yet, I recommend a re-download. If you have, NBD.

Some Kind of Movie – Ep. 3: Boldly Going Where We’ve Gone Before

By now you’ve hopefully read my review of Star Trek Into Darkness, or at least someone’s. But maybe you were craving a little more. Maybe you wanted a spoiler-filled discussion of the film’s merits. Well, here you go. Here it is. The four of us talking about how well Into Darkness compares to the rest Trek legacy, and also how well it stands as a film on its own. And, once again, spoilers.

T3 58: Top 10 Ways to Give Up

Sorry there wasn’t an episode last week, we had some plans and then they fell apart and we just, kind of, gave up. We’re pretty good at that, actually. You see, in life, you have to make choices. Choices about how you feel about yourself and how you present yourself to society. And we’ve all made certain concessions at certain times. That line might be rigid, but we’ve all tried to find some flexibility in it before, and most likely failed. That said, listen to this episode to find out some of the most atrocious ways you can throw away your self respect.

T3 57: Top 10 Buddy Movies

Regardless, we put our friendship knowledge to good use this week by discussing our favorite buddy movies in honor of Pain and Gain. If you like heterosexual men taking about the relationships between heterosexual men, this episode is for you.

T3 55: Top 10 Siskel & Ebert & Roeper Reviews

Roger Ebert passed away last week and it hit us pretty hard. The man has been a role model for all us a critic and a promoter of the discussion of art. There might not be any individual who was more influential on this podcast or Mildly Pleased, except for perhaps his co-critics, Gene Siskel and Richard Roeper. So we dedicated a show to Ebert’s memory, and his shared television legacy, by counting down our favorite reviews they ever did. We give all of them four thumbs way up.
