Comedy TV Reviews

25 - The Four Seasons (The Big Thanksgiving)

This week, we watched the Netflix original series 'The Four Seasons'. It's based on the Alan Alda film of the same name. We discuss the evolution of friendships, what it means to "live the dream", grief, and much more. It's obviously very funny.

24 - Secret Invasion

Join us as we review our first series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In fact, this is the ninth TV series in the MCU. Can you name them all? Okay let's see: Agents of Shield, Coach Carter, Iron Fist? A Fish Called Wanda? We don't know. And you know what? We don't—nah nah. Punisher is probably one. Anyway, we reviewed the series Secret Invasion. We got the sense that it was poorly received—we see why! It's not great. But are the makings of a good show there? Does this follow the Hollywood tradition of alien invasion as a political metaphor? Is Samuel L. Jackson mailing it in or is he the highlight here? Listen and find out. We also want to give a big shoutout to the Redditors who have been recommending better episodes for us. We see you. We hear you. We hear for you.

23 - St. Denis Medical

Do you like mockumentary, work-place, sitcom (?), comedies? We watched St. Denis Medical this week. Yep, we compared it to The Office and Parks and Recreation. Was Superstore one of those shows too? You know the one. Please, write us at midspodcast@gmail.com to let us know. Or leave us a review with your answer.

22 - Burn Notice (Characters Welcome)

In podcasting, your most important tool—more important than any vocal technique, any technical skill—is your ability to twist the facts of a TV series to your own advantage. This week, we enter the world of USA Network for the mid-2000's spy comedy (?) Burn Notice. This is our first entry into "blue sky" television. We are thrilled to join Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan), Fi (Gabrielle Anwar), the mom (Sharon Gless), Bruce Campbell, and a Guy Fieri type guy as they do spy things in Miami, Florida.

21 - Sabrina the Teenage Witch (Mids Classics)

Lord, forgive me, but it's time to go back to that old me. We recorded this episode in 2021! Or something like that. Yes, this week your episode is a Mids classic. We are once again discussing a teenage witch. Which old witch? The middest witch. That's right, we covered the 90's WB hit sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Why? Why not. This one pairs nicely with our episode on the Netflix original Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

20 - Bluey (HBD)

For the first time in the history of this podcast, we are reviewing a show from Australia! No, not the ABC1 series 'The Slap'. We watched several episodes of Bluey from ABC Kids. We discuss what it means to imagine and whether we would recommend this show for families (the human kind, not heckin' pupper doggos xD). Please join us for a fabulous discussion.

19 - Unsolved Mysteries

This week, we make our way into the world of true crime with the documentary series that started it all—Unsolved Mysteries. From an assassination that changed the course of history to a reenactment that launched Matthew McConoghey's career, this season 5 episode has a lot to unpack.

18 - Veep

Just in time for President's Day, Mids is back to share our thoughts on a Season 3 episode of HBO's Veep. Neither host was super familiar with this show, but we are pretty familiar with Washington, D.C. so enjoy a few local references.

17 - Stranger Things

Welcome back to Mids! This week, K & D talk about a season 3 episode of the Netflix original series 'Stranger Things'. Come for the Demogorgon, and stay for discussions of late 00's indie pop music, the Indiana Hoosiers (shout out to Fernando Mendoza), and and our favorite cities. Frasier is BACK in the building.

16 - Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (Congratulations)

One of our hosts got married this month! Tune in to the Walker episode to find out which host tied the knot. On a very special Mids, our one year anniversary of publishing episodes, we turn the clock all the way back to November 2021 (?) to discuss the Netflix original series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Happy Halloweeeeeeen! cauldron bubbling sounds lightning metal chains Is anyone else going as a Matcha Labubu tonight?
