I'm coming to this podcast way late, but you've mentioned the show Boliphor and Horses several times, and no matter how many times I here Oliphaunts and Horses, I still have no idea what words you're saying. Is it Gloribonks and Horses, Florijaunts and Horses, or Wallibuns and Horses?

2024-10-08 09:13:49 +0000 UTCThe ending of the Leftovers is absolutely #1 in my opinion. Phenomenal

2024-10-07 21:06:41 +0000 UTCHearing Gav call game of thrones and breaking bad 3 stars shows makes me wonder what the heck he thinks is five stars

2024-10-06 16:34:55 +0000 UTCI thought the ending of Peep Show was pretty much perfect.

2024-10-06 12:39:10 +0000 UTCIβve always viewed Scrubs season 9 as a spin off series. Therefore for me saying it ruined the end of Scrubs is like saying Joey ruined the end of Friends which it obviously didnβt.

2024-10-05 15:25:03 +0000 UTCWhen Gav mentioned that Scrubs went away and came back I thought it reminded me of Ted Lasso as a new seasonβs been announced after the finale. Then Gav says the Scrubs creator created Ted Lassoβ¦

2024-10-05 15:09:00 +0000 UTCDark is one of the best shows! Unbelievable they pulled off that ending!

2024-10-05 14:58:28 +0000 UTCSpeaking of animation, BoJack Horseman was a great ending

2024-10-05 00:37:55 +0000 UTCI can't believe Yorkshire and my beloved Leeds have been slagged off in the opening minutes. Talking about turning heel? You already have. π

2024-10-04 23:01:10 +0000 UTCFirst time I watched LOST which was at the time it was aired, I was annoyed at the ending and wished it had tied up all the loose ends. Watched it again when I was a bit older and loved the ending and the fact it left a lot to interpretation. What are your thoughts if youβve rewatched it?
Paul Mitchell
2024-10-04 21:55:18 +0000 UTCDon't know if I agree with Gav here on Mad Men. The final season was about the characters finding themselves and seeing where they fit in. Don literally stops running and trying to be something he's not or pretending to be this perfect idea of the modern man and accepts himself for who he is, an add man and a bit of a monster

2024-10-04 16:54:43 +0000 UTCI loved Six Feet Under. It currently streams in the states on Max, as it was an HBO show.

2024-10-04 13:40:17 +0000 UTCWest wing had a good flash forward and weirdly.. Veep has a good flash forward. Eastbound and down might have the greatest one though its so mental.

2024-10-04 11:13:08 +0000 UTCOh and for sitcoms Frasier has a really good ending and Seinfeld as well. <3
Adam Block
2024-10-04 10:33:42 +0000 UTCSome of my favorite endings have actually been in animated series. Avatar the Last Airbender, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, and so on. I actually recently went back and watched the last season of the Walking Dead recently. And found that quite satisfying too.
