Whiplash is the only way to describe the feeling of seeing Nicola Coughlan in Derry Girls, then Bridgerton and back again! (Yes, another Derry Girls discussion!) This week we take a look back at season two of everyone’s favorite Netflix period piece, braving frightful damage to our reputations! There’s no Matthew McConaughey in this reboot […]

The crew might be a couple weeks behind the internet furor on Anatomy of a Scandal, but have our own hot take on what this tale of infidelity reveals about us humans. Mike struggles to enjoy a tv show called The Man Who Fell To Earth when we find out so quickly how he arrived. […]

Family is back on topic this week as we review F9, the latest Vin Diesel Furious Magic Car Romp. Mike makes a sharp reversal on his mixed-genre view with Outer Range. Slow Horses builds a case that some washed up spies are better than top flight MI5 agents, giving us all hope. The Northman brings 300-esque magic into a Viking revenge plot and unites Skarsgård the younger with elder! Steve keeps us in touch with his journey through The Dropout. Plus we discuss Season 3 Derry Girls and why Mike...

After a fortnight long sabbatical the team returns to discuss yet another helmet wearing sci-fi hero in Halo. We struggle to find out what is going on with Oscar Isaac in Moon Knight and the camp is split right down the middle by Amy Schumer. Somewhat related to Life & Beth that puts Steve reminiscing about Somebody, Somewhere that we reviewed in Episode 23.

We start with the heaviest boxing match in history and move on to some heavyweight TV and Film reviews! Netflix stages a play for our viewing pleasure in Windfall. The mockumentary style makes a return in Welcome to Flatch and Jared Leto does a Tom Hiddleston impersonation in WeCrashed. The show reminds us of The […]

Mike stays true to his convictions from last weeks show – by turning up and also in reviewing The Batman! How will he rank sparkly Pattinson on the Bruce Wayne ladder? Steve and Mike unite on The Adam Project but did they like it? On Wolf LIke Me, Mike blurs the line between shows we […]

First order of business – work out whose fault it was that we missed out on last week’s episode! Then its down to the work of letting you good people know what you should and shouldn’t watch starting with the confusingly titled From we teased in last episode. We debate if Vikings: Valhalla lives up […]

Catching up with the crew, Mike adds his reviewing weight to last week’s Reacher discussion. We take a look at what might have been if the Fresh Prince was a drama rather than a sit-com, which it is in Bel-Air from Peacock. Hercule Poirot returns as the mustachioed Kenneth Brannage for Death on the Nile. […]

A mixed bag this week from fast paced Sci-Fi action in Moonfall to a sex tape origin story in Pam and Tommy, from Disney+ of all people! We spend quite a bit of time discussing the reboot on Amazon Prime of Reacher, replacing Tom Cruise, who played the titular hero in the movies, with Alan […]

Joe Rogan can’t get a break this week as we discuss his merits versus Neil Young‘s back catalog. Questions we grappled with this week are – How does Buffy the Vampire Slayer compare with Astrid & Lilly Save the World? What can Korea do with a Zombie breakout story set in a high school in […]

Will Belfast, Kenneth Brannagh‘s love letter to his childhood, attract the same appreciation from the podcast crew as it does from the Oscar pundits? Somebody Somewhere has Mark and Steve trying to untangle some confused feelings (about the tv show – this isn’t Hollyoaks). Mike brings the team into the found footage horror genre with […]

Another bumper episode this week as we tear through a long list of TV and Film hanging over from our break. As promised we review John Cena revisiting his Suicide Squad character Peacemaker from HBO Max. Steve brings us to Poland for the story of Nikodem “Nikos” Skotarczak in Netflix biopic How i fell in […]

Some folks take a break over the holiday season, not the WSIW crew! We have a bumper episode covering a whole host of TV and Film to let you know the best things to watch to kill any January Blues! On the slate this week are Spider-Man: No Way Home, Book of Boba Fett, Matrix: […]

There’s a lot of talk this week about Oscar nominations and even more about whether they really matter anymore! Single All The Way might not be in that category, but brings festive cheer and a couple Grinches to the show. Benedict Cumberbatch unleashes his best New Zealand Cowboy in The Power of the Dog and […]

The MCU is back on Disney+ and our podcast! We discuss if Hawkeye hits the mark (get it!) or if the aging somewhat-super hero should have stayed in retirement. Immoral Compass tests the depravity tolerance of the crew, but is it good?. In True Story, Kevin Hart plays someone very like himself along with poor […]

This week The Card Counter bamboozles the team, are we at the mercy of false advertising? Mark’s excitement peaks as we finally review the Amazon Prime production Wheel of Time, with Mike coming in a close second for Rosamund Pike. We return to Korea for the first time since Squid Game in Episode 15, this […]

Episode 17 is upon us and we tackle the Eternals, filled with hope that this ensemble will merge Game of Thrones and the Walking Dead with the MCU and create an emergence of quality cinema! After barely shedding the dust from Shang Chi, Eternals might have their work cut out. Conspiracies abound on Netflix‘s Inside […]

Laid low for two weeks by the great plague of our time, the team return hale and hearty. Mark still seems to have a sore spot about pronunciation from the great Vigil debate in Episode 11, that rears its head once more in discussing Dune (Dew-n or June people, pick a side!). We debate the […]

We have made so many informed decisions on what you should and shouldn’t watch this week that it might be classed as foolishness to turn on your TV without listening! After getting some bad news about Y: The Last Man that we reviewed in Episode 13. We gaze unflinching into controversy giving our take on […]

Much like acquiring a taste for strong liquor, the team has been averse to Steve’s F1 minute, but with each week it get easier! This week Steve gives us a run down on the Russian Grand Prix and the weather. Our review slate this week opens, like Broadway after the pandemic, with Dear Evan Hansen. […]

If there is one thing that divides friends its Cocaine. Well, by divide I mean we disagree and by cocaine I mean Netflix documentary Cocaine Cowboys: The Kings of Miami. We do the classic contrast and compare against Episode 11‘s Untold documentary and back it up with Mark’s mathematics homework. Y: The Last Man leads […]

Shang Chi and the Legend of the 12 Rings! We reviewed it at last! But wait, I am overexcited by the latest MCU instalment hitting the show after missing it last week, lets start at the beginning. Steve arriving early to the podcast studio leads to a discussion on F1, strangely. We compare the ravages […]

The podcast very nearly derails this week over the pronunciation of Vigil, a BBC submarine drama. Yes, that is a genre now. We contrast new Netflix animated comedy Q-Force with Archer and decide if either represents a “Queer and Present Danger“. David Harbour is among the Q-Force cast that has us revisit Episode 6‘s Black […]

We take our courage in both hands this week to revisit a horror of our childhoods: Candyman! The Witcher TV show becomes a divisive element in the proceedings as we discuss The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf. Is the Henry Cavill live action show better or worse than Netflix‘s anime offering? Nightmare of the Wolf […]
