I'm introducing my kids to Star Trek, starting with TOS. We've watched The Trouble With Tribbles and they were rolling with laughter. They're 8 and 6. The 8 year old knows no fear when it comes to shows, the 6 year old hates jump scares and creepy monsters.

Send episode recommendations please! I have a short list but I'd love hearing opinions on which TOS episodes are the most kid-friendly.

My MFU episode recs

Since everyone else is doing this; as others have said, most episodes are worth seeing, but here are my absolute faves--

The Shark Affair -- probably my favorite episode of all time, Napoleon and Illya are on two separate missions that converge and pit them against a modern-day pirate.

The Project Strigas Affair -- you'll be playing the "Hey, it's that guy!" game all though this ep. Also Illya is in a ridiculous disguise and Napoleon still finds time to flirt with him.

The Fiddlesticks Affair -- SO. MUCH. DRAMA.

The Mad, Mad Tea Party Affair -- so much insanity, plus that lovely shot of Napoleon and Illya in the elevator shaft with their suitjackets off (one of my more notable "I may be ace, but dang" moments).

The Secret Sceptre Affair -- the clips that @justabigoldnerd has been posting should tell you all you need to know about this ep.

The Never-Never Affair -- what do you get when you take Napoleon and Illya and add in Agent 99, the Joker, and Mr. Slate from The Flintstones? This ep.

The Love Affair -- Eddie Albert plays a convincing villain and invokes Napoleon's wrath when it appears he's killed Illya. Also Madame Leota/Maleficent (Eleanor Audley) has a cameo

The Gazebo in the Maze Affair -- Napoleon embarks on a quest save his beloved Illya from a vengeful squire... with mixed results, but that's why we love this show.

Alexander the Greater Affair 1&2 -- there's a lot going on here, but that's what makes it great

The Foxes and Hounds Affair -- Robert Vaughn, David McCallum, AND Vincent Price all in the same room together--need I say more?

The Virtue Affair -- more mutual lifesaving with a ton of drama

The Bat Cave Affair -- ...there's a lot going on here, just watch it 😆

The Pop Art Affair -- modern art and killer foam

The Off-Broadway Affair -- yet another "Hey, it's that guy/gal!" episode, ft Lamb Chop, Scrappy-Doo, and General Burkhalter all in the same room with Napoleon and Illya. Also the closest MFU gets to a musical episode. ALSO more mutual lifesaving and, somehow, Napoleon and Illya still find time to have a date in a Turkish bath.

The Suburbia Affair -- very little I can add to what others have said about this ep, other than this: I am convinced that the overdubbed "Mother" at Illya that Robert Vaughn was forced to do was covering up a "Dear" that the censors refused to let air. In my heart, it was "Dear." Kudos to Robert for making it so obvious it was an overdub; it's like he knew what the fans wanted.

The Matterhorn Affair -- Yes, it's mostly ridiculous, but Napoleon and Illya's ice-cream date at the end makes it worth it

The Hot Number Affair -- we get this, enough said:

The Summit-Five Affair -- ANGST and a beautiful showcasing of Illya's undying loyalty to Napoleon.

The 'J' for Judas Affair -- this is an interesting one, a sort of look into what happens when the duo initially fails a mission and then have to pick up the pieces.

The Prince of Darkness Affair 1 & 2 -- ft. a new evil organization, Napoleon in disguise, and Illya finding Napoleon's disguise more attractive than he expected

The Deadly Quest Affair -- more undying loyalty!

The Gurnius Affair -- there's A LOT going on here

The Maze Affair -- More angst! More devotion!

The Deep Six Affair -- You gotta watch it for the ending. You gotta.

List of Lupin III Part 2 Episodes (that I liked enough to make my partner watch them)

Part 2 of Lupin III has Many Episodes, but overall I found it fun and charming (in a dated kind of way). Please be aware that this is a very old show, and there are still instances of racism/sexism/etc in these episodes (though the worst have not made this list).

I have decided to share the whole list of episodes I noted down to make Partner watch with me as I have been devouring the show entire, much like a snek, but I have also bolded a couple of my Extra Favorite ones.

I cannot speak to the quality of the dub versions, as I have only watched with Japanese audio and English subtitles. I don't think Part 2 is a bad place to start if you want to get into Lupin. It is a very silly show full of shenanigans, which has been bringing me a great deal of joy over the winter.

11 - "A Gift for the President" / "The Sleight Before Christmas" 12 - "The Great Chase in San Francisco" / "I Left My Mind in San Francisco" 20 - "Goemon's Revenge" / "The Last Mastery" 25 - "A Rose and a Pistol" / "Shot Through the Heart" 32 - "Lupin Dies Twice" / "Lupin the Interred" 41 - "Search for the Treasure of Princess Kaguya" / "Heroes and Vixens" 44 - "The Vanished Special Armored Truck" / "Lion, Cheatin' and Stealin'" 48 - "Lupin Laughs at the Alarm Bell" / "Vault Assault" 57 - "Computer or Lupin?" / "Alter-Ego Maniac" 58 - "The Face of Goodbye at the National Border" / "Gettin' Jigen with It" 61 - "The Flying Zantetsuken" / "The Yam Is Mightier Than the Sword" 66 - Order: Shoot to Kill!!" / "Beauty and the Deceased" 72 - A Skateboard Murder Mystery" / "You're Sapphired!" 79 - "The Lupin Funeral March" / "Baton Death March" 80 - "The Last Gift in Prison is Cup Ramen" / "Everybody Loves Ramen" 81 - "Fujiko, Men Are a Sorry Lot!" / "Fujiko, Men Are a Sorry Lot!" 82 - "Rescuing Pops" / "Hostage Rescue Operation: Daddio" 84 - "Leave the Revenge to Lupin" / "Leave the Revenge to Lupin" 98 - "The Day Pops Was Gone" / "The Day Without Daddio" 99 - "The Scattered Magnum" / "Fighting Jigen" 102 - "Lupin, Do You Like Chanel?" / "Lupin, Do You Like Chanel?" 110 - "Fujiko's Candid Photo" / "Sharp Shot! This is Fujiko" 112 - "Goemon's Close Call" / "Danger! Goemon" 116 - "When's the 108th Bell?" / "Has the Bells Rung 108 Times?" 129 - "In Jigen, I Saw the Gentleness of a Man's Soul" / "The Kindness Of Jigen is Seen" 134 - "The Climactic Lupin Arrest Operation" / "The Surrounded Summit Strategy" 137 - "The Magnificent Team-Play Operation" / "Team Work" 142 - "The Big Favorite Disappeared at the Grand Race" / "The Disappearing Favourite" 143 - "The Miami Bank Raid Anniversary" / "The Miami Bank" 145 - "Wings of Death - Albatross" / "Albatross: Wings of Death" 148 - "The Target Is 555 Meters" / "The Target is Five Hundred and Fifty Five Meters Away"

If you only watch one episode of Part 2 -- make it 145/Wings of Death- Albatross, but if you are going to watch more than one episode for the love of the gods don't watch that one first it will set your standards much too high for the rest of the show.

edit to add: a number of these episodes after 98 can be found on youtube! And in fact youtube has much better subtitling on their subbed episodes than crunchyroll, so I recommend watching them there instead if possible.

pls drop the list of episodes of supernatural where characters are sick/sneeze or the actors are sick. i need it desperately

I gotchu!!! It’s a long list pls bear with me 🫡

S1E12 “Faith” - Dean is pretty sick and they try to heal him with faith

S2E11 “Playthings” - Sam is hungover (tw emeto)

S4E6 “Yellow Fever” - Dean gets an illness that makes him scared of everything but also I think there’s some coughing if I recall

S4E8 “Wishful Thinking” - Dean food poisoning (tw emeto)

S5E12 “Swap Meat” - Sam switches bodies with a teen who is allergic to gluten (?) (tw emeto)

S5E15 “Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid” - loved ones are rising from the dead to be reunited with their families, however after a certain amount of time they “go bad” and get sick before turning on them

S5E19 “Hammer of the Gods” - I remember hearing J/ared P/adalecki was sick during this episode and you can sort of hear it in his voice. It’s subtle tho.

****S5E21 “Two Minutes to Midnight” - episode opens with Sam and Dean hunting for Pestilence, the fourth horseman of the apocalypse. As they get nearer to him they get sick, feeling faint, phlegmy coughing, etc. It’s honestly wild. But also (tw emeto other characters, not them)

S6E5 “Live Free or Twi-Hard” - Dean turns into a vampire and in the end v*mits out the vampireness??? (Tw emeto)

S7E?? - One of the episodes where Castiel is a leviathan; specifically the one where he stands there and black goo comes out of his mouth eyes and ears - Misha Collins had a stomach bug or food poisoning or something while filming

***S8E19-21 “Taxi Driver” thru “Great Escapist” - Sam is battling trials against Hell or something and he gets sick and develops a cough. Dean comes at him with soho and a thermometer and it’s all v domestic and classic sick episode

S10E5 “Fan Fiction” - NOT a sick episode but I love this one. 10/10 recommend.

——please note I stopped watching during S11 cuz I feel like it went downhill. Personal opinion sorry, but probably there’s episodes in the middle here that have illness or whump——

S13E13 “Devils Bargain” - Lucifer is in a weakened state

S15E10 “Heroes Journey” - Sam and Dean’s luck runs out. This whole episode Sam has a cold and is sneezing and such

At some point the kid, Jack (?), I think gets sick but idk what season or episode that is if someone else can weigh in.

ALSO there are definitely YouTube clips of the main 3 sneezing (Jared, Jensen and Misha) -KB

Okay, so Doctor Who Fandom, I need your help.

I've been super interested with Doctor Who, but never really had the time to actually start watching it (very similar to my feelings on One Piece). Like, I've watched portions of the David Tennant and Matt Smith seasons, but I've always been, well, confused.

But, with the end of 2022 around the corner, I wanna start watching Dr. Who officially, and experience it.

So, y'all, if there's like, a watch order you recommend, or episodes that are just filler, and other stuff like that.

#doctor who #i wanna watch this series #david tennant is the ninth doctor right???#episode recs #series help #new to the fandom #i guess?#pls help #i dont wanna watch 3 seasons worth of filler #doctor who fans

Hey I would love an episode exploring why you guys were so happy with the characterisation of Steve and Bucky by... I think it was Joe Russo?

Also really enjoying the podcast, when I'm not poor as hell I will absolutely donate to your patreon, I love what y'all do ❤️

Thank you so much! Your support (in any way!) means the world to us.

And thank you for this recommendation/suggestion! I (Emily) have just put something on the recording calendar that would give us the chance to reeeeeeally lean into our Stucky feels and do a deep dive on why we love Bucky Barnes so very, very much.

(as much as Steve, we don't care what anyone says. they're in love, dammit.)

Some other good Alfred-centric episodes from The Batman 2004: Call of the Cobblepot (you get to see Alfred's street clothes in this one!), Bird of Prey (though there's some seriously uncomfy vibes with how Penguin and Alfred interact, just prior warning), The Icy Depths (Alfred wears his street clothes again! ...but gets turned into a total wuss :( He was willing to 3v1 Penguin and his minions before, but now he's scared of him all by himself, wtf?).

Oooo thank you so much!! I will definitely check these out, appreciate you sharing! 👀💕 I like the animation style a lot, excited to watch these (and see said street clothes - I am so curious!)

#the batman (2004)#episode recs #to watch later
