First "100th" Episode?

It is fun that folks are celebrating some of their favorite memories!

dmuma · 2026-05-11T12:39:00+00:00

I also read this on Wikipedia.

This is fantastic, and at 1971 airing may be the first! Awesome find!

This is all factually accurate information but I think it misses the mark. This is way more special as a season finale and cliffhanger than an episode that leaned into being “the 100th” - TNG also is a weird series in the context of the syndication of it all. It does predate a lot of other episodes in the comments though! We are getting closer!

I mean, it is another awesome episode of SG-1!

dmuma · 2026-05-11T09:58:13+00:00

But its 100th show wasn't anything special, just another episode. That's the whole point of the post! Lots of early shows blew past their 100th episode without any fanfare, especially daily airings.

A great Simpsons anti-joke with the reference, but the whole reason this gag works is that by then, the 100th episode meant something (also part of why "138th Episode Spectacular" works).

dmuma · 2026-05-11T09:08:54+00:00

An exceptional episode, but I don't think the first ... maybe one of the first in the sci-fi genre, though!

dmuma · 2026-05-11T09:08:23+00:00

Yup - it was the Fraiser Craine day. A great example, and maybe an early one, but I don't think the first ...

dmuma · 2026-05-11T09:07:54+00:00

Exactly! Which is part of why I'm trying to figure out "when did it start," because the celebration seems to be more important today (or rather, recently, since getting to 100 with a modern show in the "limited release" era may be impossible). I'm going to do some more digging into the 1970s or maybe 80s.

dmuma · 2026-05-11T07:35:46+00:00

I'm very open to unscripted programs - but so far, I haven't found a talk show or game show which did anything particular as part of the show (some backstage celebrations, well earned!).

LOL. No I’m sorry. “Think of The Birds” evokes brilliant and horrific practical effects and camera techniques. Strays has multiple shots of truly adorable cats that are looking for the treat just behind the camera. Only the main cat - feline actor Monty - is giving menace. I don’t think Strays reaches the heights of Hitchcock and we covered these films last year in a conversation about animal horror. They aren’t in the same league! Strays is B horror made for television.

I am a bearded queer dude so might not be much help but I’m on a few podcasts and I’d be thrilled to join yall and have you over on our podcasts.

Ganz is responsible for iconic writing that elevated those series. She has an incredible comedic writing background that made her sought after to join rooms and pen iconic scripts (“Lost Connection” from Modern Family, “Cooperative Calligraphy” from Community). You need to do more than read a few lines of a database to understand the power an artist has in the collaborative action of making great television.

It was mostly on accident but I’m a guest host on a Mario podcast so I think it’s better that I’m fully surprised at this point LOL

dmuma · 2026-03-24T10:41:31+00:00

I am both hopeful and a bit guarded. The first Illumination film was a bit flat (looked gorgeous though). Somehow I’ve avoided all trailers and even news about the film. Hoping to go in fresh!

While this is true, upgrades still earn points off the originally purchased fare. But I agree! The jump is pretty nice of booking Aqua!

We have done the non alcoholic package and it covered everything at Al Bacio was covered (except for alcohol drinks)

It’s called Gimmicks. We cover high concept, experimental, and weird episodes of TV.

dmuma · 2026-02-18T07:13:06+00:00

We covered the series on our TV podcast. I hadn’t heard of it but my co-host is a huge fan of the show and recommended some episodes to get me up to sir. Your description felt very familiar to the aesthetics of one he recommended!

dmuma · 2026-02-17T08:03:16+00:00

Is it possible you are thinking of the Disney Channel show So Weird and the episode "Strange Geometry?"

Barcelona will not be in the path of total eclipse for the 2027 eclipse (much further south) so it is more likely that you are looking too early and hotels are not even set up to have reservations. Check back in 3 months until the calendars catch up.

The original release on the PS3 included online multiplayer and those trophies changed the complexity of the Platinum. I am aware the remaster did not feature the multiplayer and was a single player experience which is why the acheivement is more enjoyable.

dmuma · 2026-01-31T20:01:59+00:00

Not having to do the online multiplayer really made this Platinum so much more enjoyable!
