In this very special episode: Apparently Mother Nature is not a fan of The Idiot Boxers because she sent Hurricane Irene up the east coast to knock out Merrill’s power for an entire week. Mere hours after power was restored, the Idiots were back online and talking about TV… well, after a half hour of recounting Hurricane Irene stories flavored with the spicy, hot bitterness of Starbucks. Then, Kevin chimed in with a grand story of an $11,500 burrito. Eventually, the Idiots moved on to what sucked and what rocked, along with TV news and a couple sound-offs, which includes a scathing review of Hulu+.

In this very special episode: With most of the season finales out of the way, the Idiots get ready for a short show… until they find FozzieBare squatting in the Magical Studio in the Sky. The more the merrier in Idiotville, so they invite Fozzie to join the show. Apparently the Rapture happens in the middle of the show because Fozzie disappears. But that doesn’t stop the Idiots from talking about what rocked, what sucked, TV news and how pornography can affect a podcast.

In this very special episode: Well, the Idiots were not taken in the Rapture, so they’re still here watching television. And it’s a good thing too because this was when many of the finales happened and all the renewal/cancellation news hit. So the Idiots talk about what they thought rocked and what they thought sucked, then move on to TV news. There’s also a special guest in the final segment before the Idiots break out some sound-offs and DVD recommendations. But don’t worry… there’s plenty of other goodies in this show, including an iTunes review all the way across the pond from the UK, some discussion about body function and why Merrill just needs a hug.

In this very special episode: The Idiots celebrate Mother’s Day by talking about television, even though Kevin doesn’t seem too excited about the whole thing. Merrill makes up for it with passion about everything from the return of Flashpoint to Percy the bad guy on Nikita. Sadly, Kevin can barely muster enough excitement for more Doctor Who and the return of South Park goodness. After rattling off a nice array of TV news, the Idiots chat about some DVDs and lay down some rather bizarre recommendations.

In this very special episode: Because the Idiots are welcoming of all faiths, the Idiot Easter recording begins with Kevin asking some major theological questions. Yet somehow, the episode derails into discussions about shower sex. Still, the Idiots manage to talk about what they thought rocked and sucked in the past two weeks, with Kevin bringing out some claws for a handful to shows and Merrill sounding like the nice guy. After some TV news and a somber nod to Elisabeth Sladen, the Idiots move on to some sound offs, DVD picks and Idiot Recommendations.

After reviewing the scant number of new shows over the past two weeks, they talk about what rocked and what sucked in the past year.

DOCTOR WHO: THE COMPLETE FIFTH SERIES
(not rated)
MOVIE: ****1/2 (out of 5)
BLU-RAY EXPERIENCE: **** (out of 5)
In this very special episode: There have been major changes to The Idiot Boxers podcast. The review segments have been shifted around, focusing more on what the Idiots thought rocked and what they thought sucked. This (and an alleged kidnapping of Merrill and Kevin) led to a summer hiatus for the past month, but the Idiots are back on the couch, ready to talk TV. And yes, surprise surprise, Merrill is going to talk about Flashpoint this week. They also cover such diverse subjects as college evangelists, masturbation, Asian subtitles and what Kevin wants to do to Piper Perabo’s caboose.

In this very special episode: In revenge for Kevin’s devotion to The Greatest American Hero theme song on the last episode, Merrill launches into full-force “I Love FlashPoint” mode, complete with music and everything. The Idiots give nods to recent interviews with the FlashPoint creators as well as their very special Emmy special. Then they rattle through the slate of summer series, sound off on different topics and lay down some Idiot Recommendations. Merrill, get a tissue!

In this very special episode: Belive it or not, Kevin and Merrill are still doing the show. Whoever thought they could feel so free? Flying away on a wing and a prayer, who could it be?… Kevin pays homage to teh greatest TV theme song ever while Merrill launches hatred for anything 70s and 80s. But first, the Idiots talk about the latest episode of television, what time slot is most likely to kill a series and hate on the big screen adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender. And Merrill declares that he will watch an entire season of Grey’s Anatomy. What a trooper.
