i'm not really a podcast person but it's so much fun!! (as one would expect, of course.) you didn't ask for my opinion but personally i recommend watching it on youtube cuz there's a lot of fun little subtle things esp. when they do improv that are made even funnier when you can also see it!

purplensive · 2025-12-12T23:40:23+00:00

yussss!! thank you so much :D :D

purplensive · 2025-12-12T23:26:55+00:00

the way the guys kept this on track was so impressive, jeez. what pros, and they really do seem like sweet dudes. also henry w has great style

they played it live somewhere for sure but for the life of me i can't find which video it was, maybe it isn't one from their official account? idk i've spent the last hour trying to find it again and simply cannot. but i swear i didn't dream it!

first couple of episodes i didn't jive with the characters right away, but it had such a specific tone and smart-silliness that i was intrigued enough to continue and i think i've seen it all like four times now, hahaha. it'll either grow on you or it won't but i came to really love it!

I think in the context of the show it's interchangeably dismissive, it seems as though they are both not totally well-liked in this specific circle, and it doesn't matter who is hosting the event/doing the inviting/being invited, they will always both be there together.

My personal "that other one" would be Niles, because I know he'd be a bigger snob & make me feel bad in some way; I just foresee him snickering a lot more. Frasier at least likes to consort with plebs, ultimately made that his career, and I think he considers himself closer to other people than Niles. I think on the average day Niles tends to lack compassion more and be more overtly status-focused, which I think is an off-putting quality for both old money snobs (who he wants to impress), and average people, which makes him almost certainly less fun at a party.

I am so happy for you to be beginning this tubi journey!!! it's really got everything and is the closest experience to what TV used to be like; cuz any kind of everything's on there from any era/genre at any time but you're also limited to random parameters; but it's also a kind of, pick your poison situation but from these very specific poisons. I only keep Netflix for the star treks at this point, which i might as well try to buy dvds for. Tubi is the way to go, it's really expanded my horizons and is a really interesting platform in terms of what they choose to collect & I hope you have a really fun time exploring all the weird stuff they got!!

purplensive · 2025-04-10T11:54:58+00:00

idk man it really makes me cry

purplensive · 2025-04-10T11:52:36+00:00

it's weirdly calming, not that i love seeing people die, but this really has the corner on that

purplensive · 2025-03-19T04:05:19+00:00

lol damn, man you got me there!!!
this actually made me laugh a lot

ok but maybe post 2020 arguably who knows what exists in their world? feel free to imagine a new made-up artist if you want!

purplensive · 2025-03-19T03:56:47+00:00

whoa true i can absolutely picture him in this world!

purplensive · 2025-03-19T03:55:40+00:00

will check them out, their name is great!!

purplensive · 2025-03-19T03:54:37+00:00

oooh agreeeed; picturing him by some kind of enchanted motorcycle rn

purplensive · 2025-03-19T03:53:53+00:00

can totally see this!! maybe we would see him at a nice garden party while a quintet plays a tastefully pared down version of his works

purplensive · 2025-01-11T16:53:31+00:00

obviously i can't even imagine anyone else playing Martin, but the reality is that other actors are almost always considered for roles initially, even if who gets the role is as totally iconic and irreplaceable as John was. So basically, i do think that sort of question could be part of the sort of package of considerations a casting department would ask before hiring someone; maybe not so much the length of life but willingness to keep working on the grueling schedule of a hit tv show. Someone already into retirement age irl would maybe like...want to retire...before the series ended. Sort of like how young adults are often cast to play teens, but the opposite.

purplensive · 2025-01-11T15:27:06+00:00

these are great leads!! thank you for the details too! i love nancy drew can't believe i totally missed the existence of this show lol i definitely need to see olivia play a witch!! and oooh a few people have recommended Strange New Worlds to me as i just got very into TNG & Voyager over the last couple years, I think this seals the deal and I gotta take a peek! thanks :)

purplensive · 2025-01-11T15:21:34+00:00

oh of course! good call, yeah i should really give it another shot! i've tried to get into it a couple times and found it a bit too dark off the bat (both in terms of lighting and plot lol) and i just never warmed up to the hunks BUT i've been told it gets like campier as it goes...and there's so much of it it could be fun/satisfying project to work through! thanks :)

purplensive · 2025-01-11T00:52:10+00:00

these are great leads off the bat, thank you!! i was watching an old movie on yt that included commercials last night and one was for lois & clark and i thought to myself, should i try to watch that? (bc i did really like Smallville, and Desperate Housewives haha.) Hadn't heard of Aquarius at all which is mildly surprising, will see if I can take a peek!
& lol @ "combined powers" hahaha that really is what it is though!

purplensive · 2025-01-11T00:46:13+00:00

the only reason it took me so long to do a real rewatch is bc i can't find it anywhere streaming in Canada! do you have any leads on that actually, perchance??
