The Idiot Boxers – Episode 60

Posted on June 25, 2012

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.
