The Idiot Boxers – Episode 61

Posted on July 9, 2012

The Idiot Boxers

In this very special episode: The idiocy continues in the Magical Studio in the Sky as Merrill complains about the shenanigans surrounding the 4th of July while Kevin talks about losing his power and watching every single goddamn James Bond movie in the main series. They also chat a little about television news and review some shows, but not before Kevin curses anyone who follows the Kardashians on Facebook or Twitter. Sometimes you have to think Kevin is trying to get Merrill to either laugh or get angry. Of course, he manages to send Merrill off the rails by relaying a story about his son, related to the latest episode of Louie. (Hint: It’s not what you think, you perverts!) Finally, they talk about DVDs and Idiot Recommendations, then dance off into the sunset.

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 60

Posted on June 25, 2012

The Idiot Boxers

In this very special episode: It’s another light week for TV watching in the summer, but that doesn’t stop the Idiots from gathering in the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk TV news and other sundry things. They start off with Merrill giving his thoughts on being a real-life production assistant. Later, Kevin moves on to make fun of Merrill for not knowing his cinematic Shakespeare. This leads to other age tests, most of which Merrill surprisingly passes. Later, they talk about the scant TV shows of the past two week. Kevin blows Merrill’s mind in regards to Burn Notice, and they both talk about not getting anything blown while watching HBO’s Real Sex. There’s also TV news, DVD Recommendations and a special Kevin Carr shout-out to Falling Skies.

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 59

Posted on June 11, 2012

The Idiot Boxers

In this very special episode: The Idiots gather once again in the Magical Studio in the Sky to make it across the bridge of regular-season shows and the summer-seasons series. Even though there wasn’t much happening on the television front these past couple weeks, they find some things to talk about, including Kevin’s shenanigans at his sister’s wedding and Merrill being a lightning rod for Prometheus haters. They do manage to talk about some really depressing television news, along with a handful of reviews. And Merrill has also managed to join the world of the enlightened by catching up on Cougar Town. Finally, it’s a sound-off, DVDs and recommendations before they Idiots head off into the summer.

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 57

Posted on May 14, 2012

The Idiot Boxers

In this very special episode: It’s winding down through May sweeps, and there’s tons of renewal, cancellation and pick-up news. So the Idiots have a busy time ahead of them. But that doesn’t stop them from getting sidetracked about The Avengers and other summer movies. A surprisingly grumpy Kevin also rants about TIME Magazine’s breastfeeding cover and also complains about Mother’s Day. The Idiots talk about a selection of new shows coming in the fall as well as the peculiarities of some shows that were renewed or canceled. Then they chat about a few shows they’ve been watching before throwing out some DVD recommendations and an impromptu Sound-Off by Kevin. (Don’t worry… he’s done talking about breastfeeding for the episode.)

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 56

Posted on April 30, 2012

The Idiot Boxers

In this very special episode: The Idiots are on fire this week, both for television and for movies. They open up their first segment with a discussion of Marvel films and the insanity around spoilers and regional screenings. Kevin also throws some love to the Ohio 24-Hour Sci-Fi Marathon (and stay tuned for a Second Reel episode on that). Then it’s into the television news, which is pretty hearty this week and open for discussion. Next, the Idiots talk about various television shows they watched, including a scathingly sexist (not really) rant about Girls. Finally, they lay down some recommendations and DVD picks before assembling their way out of here.
