Episode 4: "Double-Duffed"

[trsjeff]

This week: A review of Hot Fuzz, news of Goyer's next super hero flick, impressions of Super Paper Mario and the Opera browser for the Wii, and our take on GH DLC. Plus, the TV segment debuts with discussion of Battlestar Galactica, Sopranos, and Thank God You're Here, and the forum question rundown returns!

It's The Totally Rad Show Episode 4: "Double-Duffed" The one in which Jeff remembers Kurt, Alex gets Grindhoused, Dan is proven right, and we all know what time it is.

W00t to teh maxzorz.

[tuc11]

I just have to say. That intro in the beginning was the worst one yet.

[conedude13]

By far the gayest intro. But back to the future does rock.

[divadawg9234]

unlike these dudes, I loved the intro... I also LOVE the little tv mini-intro :)

the tv mini-intro was awesome. i'm glad their introducing new segments into the show, it makes it so much more rad

Did you miss the foot rubbing?! :p

[divadawg9234]

*gasp*!!!!!!!! You watched it without me?!?!?!?!?! :confused:
I'm bored at work... but I'm only half paying attention and half playing PuzzleQuest (level24 wizard!!) and I will watch it quicktime style while eating Pick Up Stix with you tonight!!!

[divadawg9234]

Did you miss the foot rubbing?! :pactually the foot rubbing is part of why I loved it... I love having my feet rubbed, and that is why I get a pedicure every other week.

[nicolie]

I'm bored at work... but I'm only half paying attention and half playing PuzzleQuest (level24 wizard!!) and I will watch it quicktime style while eating Pick Up Stix with you tonight!!!

okay okay....i'll let it slide. haha, i totally understand your boredom at work. Hooray for Pick Up Sticks! Can we swing by Best Buy so I can buy a new game for "Saucy"? Or we can just visit that one store over by JambaJuice. But I'm not sure if I want to come face to face with the guy that completely deceived me about the DSs.....I might claw his eyes out. muahahaha. Oh! We need to see Disturbia.
Cant wait to see Episode 4!!!!

[magunwarrior]

Alex, the reason why the doc style CGI stuff is similar in Battlestar Galatica and firefly is because the same CGI company did both series.

[conedude13]

Awesome episode, loved the new tv spot, great intro to that. Hate me if you must for saying this, but Kevin Rose ditched myspace because of all the bugs and crashing. I'm not saying that TRS should move to facebook just because Kevin did, but it truly is a hell of a lot more stable. Just thought I'de throw that out there.

[magunwarrior]

"Premature eradiation" ha good times.

[shaynemckay]

Hey guys, I love this show and this episode was awesome! I'm gonna see Hot Fuzz on Friday,, hopefully it's everything I am expecting.

[comhcinc]

unlike these dudes, I loved the intro... I also LOVE the little tv mini-intro :)

i did as well.

i also agree to drop myspace but i suggest virb.

[magunwarrior]

i did as well.

i also agree to drop myspace but i suggest virb.

I second VIRB.

There's already a VIRB group for TRS too ;)

[polarjammy]

Great episode. I thought the review for Paper Mario was good, and I loved the outtakes at the end!

Great job, guys, and congratulations to those who made it on the forums segment.

[crumbles]

...and I loved the outtakes at the end!Seconded!

Hahaha, great show guys! Keep it up!

[spazkake]

Just more of the greatness I've come to expect!

[comhcinc]

I second VIRB.

There's already a VIRB group for TRS too ;)

big ups to the virb love

[matteo]

Awesome episode as always, and thanks for the shoutout at the end! I was like omg when you guys mentioned it, so thanks again, it made my day!

PS: Love the TV bumper, especially the one with Alex getting his hair vacuumed lol.

[itsbecca]

Great show, though I didn't care for the tv section. I skipped over the whole thing because it was for shows I don't watch. So it wasn't really... tv review... it was like talk about shows we like. Which I guess would be enjoyable for people who watched the show.

I don't mind that entirely, BUT if it's going to be like that in the future please edit in some sort of queue visually when discussion starts for a new show so when I'm skipping through I can tell when to stop!


And I have to ask... in the forums section what the hell was that fuzzy animal? I thought it was a dog till I saw more. Is that a long hair cat shaved down except for the end of it's tail? Is it a pokemon? Confusion.

[comhcinc]

i'm kinda like itsbecca i saw the beginning of the tv seg. but since i don't really watch tv i found it kinda boring. that and i had to take my dog to go poopie

[mormonrage]

Nice episode!

Jeff gets major props for being the lone Vonnegut fan. It wouldn't kill you to read a book, fellas.

Oh, and if you're looking for a console with an HD web browser (that can play Quicktime m4v files), it's time to break down and get that PS3--even if you're forced to go with the $600 version now. Do it--for the sake of the show. ;)

[magunwarrior]

I watch a ton of show, but not really HBO shows, I never catch them when they begin and don't have time to watch a whole season of actual hour/half an hour episodes. I dont watch Battlestar either so yeah...

[techknowmama]

Loved the episode, the tv segment was cool.
I agree with Alex, Myst would be an awesome video game to be transported into
couple of the maps from ut2004 would be cool to but I would eventually be fragged and that wouldn't be cool

[geofox]

Nice episode, guys.
The TV segment is really cool.

Keep it up, mes amis ;)
(BTW, the name of this show is kinda difficult to translate in french :D )

[ali_pinto]

Okay, so I'm stoked that you guys covered TV this week. However, Jeff... although I have a school girl crush on you, I have to disagree with your review of The Sopranos. I think the first three seasons of the Sopranos were bad ass. Now, the show just seems annoying. Any show that makes me wait two years in between seasons better be amazing (which season season 5 and 6 were not). Although we didn't have to wait as long this time, it's is supposed to be the final season of the show and its premiere was ehhh. If they wanted to start the season off with a bang, they should've killed Tony Soprano (now that would've made for interesting TV).

[popltree2]

Loved the episode. I think I saw my old avatar floating around in the forums bumper (Tux the penguin). I really tried to get into BSG but just couldn't do it. Not sure why. I just didn't hold my attention I suppose. Anyway, great episode. Looking forward to next week's.

EDIT: Oh and props to DannyT for sporting the Camp Anawana shirt. Salute Your Shorts FTW!

[mapcouch]

hi, long time viewer, first time caller. the tv stuff seems like its too specific. i enjoyed the breakdown of battlestar galactica, because i don't watch it, but skipped through the meat of it, because i don't watch it. i do watch entourage, and haven't seen the episode you reviewed, and i'm not really sure what the episode was about after watching it. i did enjoy the short review of "thank god you're here", which let me know not to watch the episode i have tivo'd. so maybe shorter reviews to work more in, since theres a lot more tv show episodes per week than games/movies.

on the other hand, explorers kicked ass. my favorite nostalgic movie is bmx bandits. the pre-robbery scenes of them loading their weapons has to be one of the best pre-robbery scenes ever.

what's your favorite movie that involves saving a rec center?(or the equivalent, like a gym in Dodgeball)

i enjoy so much about the things you choose to be

[russell1740]

The TV intro is pretty awesome, I liked it alot.
Awesome forums segment too.

This episode was totally rad! keep it up.

[xibalba]

Loved the episode. I think I saw my old avatar floating around in the forums bumper (Tux the penguin). I really tried to get into BSG but just couldn't do it. Not sure why. I just didn't hold my attention I suppose. Anyway, great episode. Looking forward to next week's.

Was weird seeing my ugly mug bounce around the forum thing.

Great show.

[zombi]

Great ep, the more shows you guys do, the more I realize that Jeff is always right, the shield is awesome. I would love to see some more on the ps3 when you guys do the gaming segment (ill probably be picking it up soon, oh broken 360 woes) lol.
btw, haha, awesome seeing my avatar on the show.

[heaven]

TV was awesome. Although I watch none of the shows you reviewed, I still liked watching because I still wanted to know what you guys thought about shows. To see if they are really that interesting or not. Double Duffed made me LOL, great stuff, I cant wait till ep. 5.

[lurkervan]

Your welcome, I'm glad to be watching. Really though, thank you for making the show. The thanks in the credit was the first time right?

I'm really looking forward to watching Hot Fuzz on Friday night with my friends as we all loved Shaun of the Dead and it looks like it will be a fun movie to go see. My entirely looking forward to it being a big crowd with college kids since I'm not the biggest fan of that but that's what I get for being one of those college kids.

I was in the same boat with getting behind in Battlestar Galactica as the character episodes just didn't do anything for me. Don't watch The Sopranos and haven't caught the season premiere of Entourage yet but it sounds like I'll like it seeing that Jeremy Piven is hilarious. Props to Dan for pointing out Rescue Me since it seems no one else watches it. Also don't know how you sat through both episodes of Thank God You're Here, I literally turned off my tv when it became background noise after I was watching for 5 minutes.

Also wanted to give a shout out to Steve for all the work he does and something else that happened in either episode 3 or 4 but it's late and I don't remember what it was. It'll come back to me later.

[joeleeriepa]

First post, yay, blah blah...

Fantastische job you guys are doing, don't let anyone tell you different.

Loved seeing the TV segment finally included. As always- bang up job with the bumper.

Some thoughts-

I totally agree when Dan mentioned that Hot Fuzz had strong filmmaking (or something to that effect). 95% of comedies pay little or no attention to the filmmaking aspect of, well, filmmaking. It's point, shoot, laugh, repeat. It's when someone actually bothers to try and make a good film that comedies truly elevate (Coen Bros. come to mind). I'm glad someone pointed that out for once.

Dan's homo-erotic hoagie reference- Hilarious.

What's with all the LOST hate? You guys didn't get in to it, but Alex has mentioned his distaste for LOST many times on Diggnation, and I have to call you guys out. I think next episode's TV segment needs to be LOST-centric, because I (and I'm sure many other viewers) would love to know where you stand regarding the show. Jeff made a comment about a moment in Battlestar (which was admittedly amazing) which showed anything was possible in the show, and it was something LOST doesn't have. But I gotta say- I think LOST has had many moments that prove the exact same point. Hell, a few weeks ago (*SPOILER*) when Locke's dad appeared on the island was as big of a "Anything can happen" moment as you can get. Anyway, I say bring on the TRS LOST discussion.

Respect for mentioning Asscat! I've been to many free Sunday night shows in NYC, and they do improv right (Yet SNL continues to disappoint...)

Jeff is 100% right- The Shield is TV perfection. 6 seasons strong, and it's the only long-running show to still be batting 1000 at this point in it's life cycle. I have complete faith that it will end with nary a misstep.

One last gripe- I agree that browsing the internets on your TV with the Wii is not exactly like conquering the world, but it's pretty hard to complain when the damn thing is FREE!

That is all....

for now.

[sugarsickness]

Dark City is undeniably one of the most awesome movies ever.


That is all.

[imagineer99]

Good show, guys. You're definitely hitting a stride. The chemistry has become...dare I say it...rad

[gi_josh]

Wow...totally rad episode. I loved the TV intro, it rocked.

Loved the forum intro a lot too (even though I didn't se MY avatar :-) ) However I could pick out several of my new friends here at rev3, so that was pretty cool. You guys continue to keep it rad every week, and I look forward to the show with anticipation every week. Keep it up.

[conedude13]

Okay, so I'm stoked that you guys covered TV this week. However, Jeff... although I have a school girl crush on you, I have to disagree with your review of The Sopranos.

If they wanted to start the season off with a bang, they should've killed Tony Soprano (now that would've made for interesting TV).

I completely agree, I watch Soprano's with my wife and this whole season was a big waste of time. This past weekend, however, there was a bit of violence so that was helpful.

I actually enjoyed the talk about firefly and battlestar galactica. Even though i never watched them they were spoken about with a lot of passion, leaving me no choice but to start watching both from the very beginning. I also watch Entourage, its great to hear someone else show their love for it as much as i do.

Keep up the other suggestions for new tv shows whenever you go back to the tv section! Everything else is great as well, even though I only play pc games.

[divadawg9234]

Yay! Alex finally gets to sit in the middle!! :D

hey, that's my face!

[itsbecca]

(*SPOILER*)

Wow, I'd completley forgot that'd happened!!! I reaaaaally want to know what's going on with that group.

[recklessftw]

good ep.

Alex: I agree about the new girl (can't recall the name) from Entourage... she can construct my babies anytime. yummies. Good ol son-in-law is where I first saw her.... the memories.

[dmt]

I had to skip a big chunk of the episode in the middle just for spoilers.

go times anyways, love the new TV spot.

[recklessftw]

As did I, I'm behind on my BSG. TV spot is cool though, Entourage rules.

E and the two Diff sisters hey? Good for E :D

Dan, that's cool that you got to see those people.

[logant]

Liked the TV segment. But you should check out Dexter.

[tink2112]

i vote for no more long discussions with spoilers. it made my trs experience feel short and cheap. not at all how i like it.

[londarr]

I agree, I haven't watched the most recent season of BSG yet and I had to skip over more than I was anticipating. You guys should put in during editing the time that the spoiler discussion ends so we don't have to guess. Still, it was an awesome episode guys!

[gm_wil]

Anyone else driving down the road listening to the podcast and suddenly yelling, "Death Blossom sunsab'tches . . . Death Blossom!"

The Shield - been contemplating that one on netflix. I like the actor. What would the show be compared to? It's greatest strength? A weakness? How many seasons does it have under its belt?

-

[jt112]

great show guys. my fav moment was when yu guys totally blanked on that british actor in hot fuzz. pretty effin hilarious. and just wanted to say that i'm really warming up to the show. i really like the chemistry that you guys have when reviewing stuff. and jeff ... you are uber cute! thanxs for covering the kurt vonnegut story. people really need to start reading books.

[k4ng]

Great episode :) I love the TV section and I was super excited to hear Dark City being mentioned because I've never met another person who has seen that movie.

[beren]

With Hot Fuzz guys you really missed lots of it by the sounds of things. Dan said he wanted more spoof stuff, or more into the cop movie stuff. But the thing is there is like non stop stuff the whole way through, its just not American stuff. There is loads of Midsummer murders / heatbeat kinda british small town cop stuff in there. All bloody golden stuff. When i saw it with a bunch of my friends (about 10, guys and girls, 10 year age range) we all walked out saying it was awesome, but odd that there was like 2 levels of jokes. Tones of perfect subtle ones for the british material. And then overt (too overt in places) american movie references.

so yeah, just a heads up, your americans watching a british flick. not your fault.

[ronjon]

Each episode is getting better I know TRS is gonna be around a long time. Maybe I will get back into Battlestar Galactica after the first season I got busy. The intro was a lil weird but hey to each his own.....More sections would be great the tv section was great, gaming section was cool too.

[doug16]

Strange review I thought of Hot Fuzz. Jeff/Dan didn't seem to get that it was taking the mick out of old UK cop shows and not american ones! And by far missed the quintessential character of the whole film and that would have to be the 2 police men that Bill Bailey plays, best person in the film. The rest of the show was good, but it's nice to finally see the Wii getting some support from Jeff, but so wrong about Zelda though!

[popltree2]

Great episode :) I love the TV section and I was super excited to hear Dark City being mentioned because I've never met another person who has seen that movie.

You have clearly been hanging out in the wrong crowd then. Welcome to the group!

[wideawakewesley]

As a Brit who loved Shaun Of The Dead I have to say I totally agree with Jeff and Dan about Hot Fuzz. I was really really looking forward to the movie and found myself disappointed with the first 2/3 of it. However, in saying that, it's worth sitting through that first 2/3 to get to the final 30 minutes and I'm sure had I watched that section of the film on it's own, it wouldn't have been half as enjoyable, so I can see Alex's side regarding the setup and payoff.

For the BSG finale, I think the reason it doesn't have that big impact that previous finale's have is simply because the plot points they introduce are going to probably have long running resolutions and impact, rather than say Adama getting shot where you will find out instantly in the next series if he lived or died.

Now can someone please tell Nintendo that delaying Super Paper Mario until November in Europe is the biggest mistake they could ever make!

Wes

p.s. The Cobain comment in Ep 3 was classic, keep em comin Jeff.

[exautt]

Great intro. BTTF is the Greatest, also the homo-erotisizm had me PMPL. as far as im concerned keep it goin, it never gets old.

Good stuff with the reviews, Green Arrow movie sounds great, love me some Justice League! By the sounds of it i need to get into Battlestar, Although im with you guys ALL THE WAY with Firefly. Im currently doin the Stargate thing, i just got caught up and cant wait till it gets goin again in the fall with season 4. Paper mario is always a good way to go too, got the first 2 for NGC.

Finally, loved the end with you guys goin through the forums. really lets us know your into what everyones talkin about and that you care what were sayin.

Been a fan since the old Tech TV days, keep it up guys.

[knight42]

Good episode but I had a problem with a couple of things.

I am currently watching BSG (season 2.5) and haven't got to where you all are so I had to fast forward through the whole segment (but stopped when it looked like the segment was over, only to have a picture and you guys saying that one of the characters is a Cyclon). So, for spoiler purposes, there might be a better break in the show to let people know when a segment starts/stops (kinda like the rad fist pump).

The other thing is, I had to avoid talk of Entourage as I am going to be starting to watch that soon enough. So, I, like some others, had to avoid almost all of the TV section. At least I had seen 'Thank God You're Here' so I could relate.

Other than that, good episode. I'm looking forward to playing Paper Mario after I finish God of War (the first one). That and I'm looking to pick up a PS3 tomorrow night after I do a big trade in of hardware/software (stuff I won't be using anymore).

I'm really enjoying the show, keep up the good work!

Knight42

[frankiethewaffle]

I am not against reading or books. I only have enjoyed old school stuff in my reading. "Of Mice and Men" is one that comes to mind. I have only enjoyed books that are older than myself.

I was also happy to hear that I was not alone in my fear of reading out loud. Dans description of reading paragraphs ahead to prepare set my mind at ease. I am over 12 years from reading in class, but it still helped. My problem was I always read ahead of my mouth. I just didn't tell the story I was actually reading.

Good show by the way. The back drop for the TV segment was cool. I recognised all of it. (Maybe hang a "Cheers" sign in there somewhere? That is my favorite show of all time.) Good stuff.

Only problem is you left me impatiently awaiting next weeks show.

[trsjeff]

The Cheers sign (and a bunch of other stuff) IS actually there, you just can't see it because we're sitting in front of it. It is a shame, because we're blocking a lot of really cool stuff.

Great to see the new TV section. I like the idea of rotating themes/topics. I also loved the background, I got distracted picking out all the TV show references hidden back there.

Speaking of TV, I recommend a British series Life On Mars. I think you guys will love it. They've shown first season on BBC America, and the second season just completed on BBC. Apparently, they're doing an American pilot based on this series for the coming Fall. The premise is fun. A modern cop is hit by a car and wakes up in 1973. The series is about him trying to figure out what's going on while trying to fit in. Some of the best TV writing I've seen in years.

Interesting. Instead of waking up in the future, he wakes up in the past. I may have to watch this.

Life On Mars is awesome TV and a spin-off is in the works called Ashes To Ashes. The spin-off will be set in the early 80s as opposed to the 70s.

What was the pink cube from, it's killing me. The whole segment I just stared at its damned pinkness while it mocked me.

[famousblueraincoat]

Awful Waffle!
Awful Waffle!

[slowmy]

this ep put me in a particularly good mood the other day, when i wasnt feeling quite up to par....

but i do agree that alex is the bob saget of rev3.

[calvinslug]

I actually got to watch this one at the gym, and it got me to boost my heart rate by 5 BPM! So inspirational!

[potofgravy]

I was a little annoyed about the Thank God You're Here segment but I suppose it's not really your fault.

Thank God You're Here is actually an Australian show that has been, ported I suppose, to America. The Australian version is exactly the same except good. I suggest everyone searches around youtube and the like for some of the Australian segments. Especially check out the ones with Frank Woodley, Josh Lawson and Shaun Micallef.

I'm not sure if an American audience will enjoy the Australian version because we do have our differing tastes but here's hoping that you do.

I have seen a several of the American segments and the only one I didn't hate was the one with George Costanza from Seinfeld (totally (rad) just forgot his name). The funny thing is even the scenes they're put into have been done in the Australian version except better (except for maybe the kitchen scene, which I'm not sure why they did again because it was always a horrible scene).


Anyway, I'm done.

[darknessgp]

The main problem I have and I believe the guys were trying to express is that the scenes really heavily on the "improv" actor, even to the point were it is clearly a massive set up. Or they do stuff they know the actor isn't good at to try to make it funnier, I guess, by making them look stupid.

If you want a really good improv show go check out Whose Line Is It Anyways? But not the British version, just the American one. That show is the right way to do improv on TV.

Please watch some of the Australian version. I beg you.

I've watched plenty of WLIIA both the British (Back when they had John Sessions up until Ryan Stiles and Colin Mockery joined) and the American version and enjoyed both thoroughly. The British one varied in quality. Tony Squires, John Sessions, Stephen Fry and various others were all very good. When Ryan and Colin joined later on they weren't great straight away but really started to get into it later on (which is why they're so good in the American version). The early American ones I feel started off a bit slow, it took a long time to adjust to the new host Drew Carey who is the least funny thing on the show but as the contestants (especially Greg Proops) started talking back to drew in later episodes (something Greg did even in the British one) it improved.


Anyway, my point is, you MUST watch the Australian one.


Here are some examples (although they may get taken down):

Josh Lawson - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eIVJR9Ga9M

Frank Woodley - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIM74C6jEKA

(Although Frank Woodley might scare you a little. He's quite the performer.)

although I might agree with you. Seeing as the clips you provided are really funny. The fact is that the guys were talking about the American version, which has clearly doesn't match up to the original. I don't think you seem to understand it though, you say we must watch the Aurtalian one, yet we don't have access via TV to it nor do many Americans know about it. I'm not sure how they air shows in Australia, but we rarely get any other country's shows unless it's on a speciality channel like BBCAmerica.

I know the guys were talking about the American one, and that's fine. It just seemed like the guys on the show and other people here were knocking the format of the show which is quite capable if the people are capable.

I'm not really arguing with anyone here, haha. :D
