The List: Bingeworthy Shows

[00:00:00] Speaker A: Let's get it started in here. [00:00:07] Speaker B: Gossip, music, news, entertainment and heated discussions. The DJ Blaze radio show starts now. [00:00:39] Speaker A: Yo, welcome back to Wednesday's episode DJ Blaze radio show podcast. It's your boy be easy. [00:00:45] Speaker B: It's your boy, Al. [00:00:47] Speaker A: And it's that Wednesday episode. It's our list episode where we talk about our top five things of random nature in the day. What we talking about, yo? [00:00:58] Speaker B: Oh, today. Oh, man, I forgot how you worded it though. [00:01:01] Speaker A: Top 5 most binge worthy shows. [00:01:03] Speaker B: There you go. See, you saying most binge worthy. I say, the way I look at it is I think we. The. The ones I picked were ones I think you shouldn't watch. [00:01:18] Speaker A: That's the same thing in a way worthy of binge. Your top five. I guess maybe what you would suggest to people. [00:01:26] Speaker B: Yeah, it just sounds different. Everything sounds different. [00:01:32] Speaker A: Let me see. So how did you go about picking your binge worthy shows? [00:01:40] Speaker B: Shows I think you should. Not the common ones. Cause you know, we're fiends for a daggone. The Wire. So the Wire didn't make my list. [00:01:52] Speaker A: Why didn't the Wire make your list? [00:01:54] Speaker B: Because I think there's other shows that might. [00:01:56] Speaker A: Spoiler alert. [00:01:57] Speaker B: That might have fell in the pocket that I think, man, I know too many people didn't see this or I think too many people didn't see this. So I think, hey, yo, go check this show out. It might have flew under the radar with other people. That was it. [00:02:12] Speaker A: See, the Wire didn't fall on my list because the Wire kind of slow, okay. It's not a lot of action. It's more story driven, a lot of dialogue, that type of stuff. So for me, nowadays, people want a lot of extra drama. They want a lot of extra violence, you know, over the top. And the Wire really don't give a whole, whole lot of violence. Like I was listening to, I think I was reading a book or listening to the podcast or whatever, a podcast. And David Simon, that's one of the creators of the Wire, he was like, the cops don't shoot their guns, but like two times on the whole series, you know what I'm saying? A show like that might not be too interesting to people who ain't really like a story watcher. [00:03:07] Speaker B: So, yeah, I think it's. It leveled out though. Like, I understand it definitely was story driven, but like the stuff that was going on, like, you know, the robberies, the bad guys, they were shooting guns. [00:03:24] Speaker A: Yeah, they were, you know, but it wasn't like a shootout every episode. [00:03:27] Speaker B: No, it wasn't it was something clever every episode. [00:03:30] Speaker A: Yeah, definitely clever. [00:03:31] Speaker B: Clever how this guy robbed them without a gun or. You know, there's a whole lot of that. I never downplay the Wire, but I didn't put it on my list. [00:03:42] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. I wouldn't. I only recommend the Wire to people that I think are like, smart TV watchers. [00:03:48] Speaker B: You think so? [00:03:49] Speaker A: Yeah. I don't recommend it to people who only watch, like, a certain type of show. Cause they won't get it. [00:03:55] Speaker B: I think people that like gangster movies or drug dealer movies. Because this is a drug dealer movie of four seasons, right? Four seasons. [00:04:06] Speaker A: I don't look at it like that. [00:04:07] Speaker B: Six seasons. [00:04:08] Speaker A: I don't look at it like that. Five seasons. But I don't look at it like a drug dealer show. [00:04:11] Speaker B: That's what I look at it. [00:04:13] Speaker A: I look at it like it's a show about a city. And all of the different avenues in the city are because. [00:04:20] Speaker B: Because they did touch on different bases of the ports and, you know, the politics. [00:04:24] Speaker A: Politics, education. [00:04:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:04:27] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? Stuff like the newspaper. That's kind of how now the drug deal is a part of it. [00:04:31] Speaker B: The drug dealer is what I like about it. That's probably why. [00:04:34] Speaker A: Mm. But yeah. So the why he didn't make it. Spoiler alert on either one of us. [00:04:40] Speaker B: I'm surprised. [00:04:41] Speaker A: Yeah, surprised. Binge worthy. [00:04:44] Speaker B: It is binge worthy, though. Don't let us fool you. [00:04:48] Speaker A: It is if you never watched it. If you watch a certain type of show, but you gotta pay attention or else. You know what I'm saying? It's a show you gotta pay attention to. [00:04:55] Speaker B: I put somebody on it two weeks. [00:04:56] Speaker A: Ago, and they like it. [00:04:58] Speaker B: They watched the first three episodes that first night. [00:05:01] Speaker A: That's good. Once you get. [00:05:03] Speaker B: Once you get Pat and it's even that first scene. Stop Boogie. You know, it draws you in. They sitting at a crime scene, it. [00:05:13] Speaker A: Draw you in if you paying attention. Yeah. [00:05:16] Speaker B: It's not something that's gonna sit on while you doing something, doing something else. [00:05:20] Speaker A: You gotta be sitting. Paying attention. [00:05:22] Speaker B: Yeah. You gotta watch it. [00:05:22] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:05:23] Speaker B: And they hook now. [00:05:25] Speaker A: They hook. [00:05:26] Speaker B: There's a couple people I done fed the drug or the Wire, too. Yeah. It tastes a little bit of episode. Have two of these episodes, you'll be hooked, man. Go ahead, man. Try it out. [00:05:37] Speaker A: Yeah. So your number five. [00:05:39] Speaker B: Yep. Yep. [00:05:40] Speaker A: Starting this list off. [00:05:41] Speaker B: All right. My number five. Let's see what I got here, man. [00:05:44] Speaker A: I already know what it is. [00:05:45] Speaker B: Curvy enthusiasm, baby. [00:05:47] Speaker A: Larry Davis. Larry Davis, creator of Seinfeld. [00:05:53] Speaker B: He was a writer on there. A lot of those quirky ideas came from this guy. And curvy enthusiasm is 12 season long. Came out on HBO 2000. They had a lot of guests on here. Vivkay Fox, JB Smooth. Vivica. [00:06:19] Speaker A: Vivica Fox. [00:06:22] Speaker B: Kim. [00:06:23] Speaker A: What's the lady? That lady, that Jamie Foxx aunt. [00:06:30] Speaker B: Dang. [00:06:31] Speaker A: She played a part in this. [00:06:32] Speaker B: Yeah, she did. [00:06:33] Speaker A: Wasn't she the aunt that moved in with them, too? [00:06:36] Speaker B: Jimmy Smooth's aunt? [00:06:37] Speaker A: Yeah. Wasn't she here? [00:06:40] Speaker B: Could be. Could be. [00:06:41] Speaker A: JB Smooth. But they played refugees from Katrina. [00:06:45] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's a dry humor. But it's funny. Like, it's a Seinfeld to the third power. [00:06:56] Speaker A: And it's supposed to be based on, like, him. Yeah, Basically plays himself. [00:07:01] Speaker B: He's a jerk. Like, he's like. He's a jerk. That's all I can say. [00:07:06] Speaker A: I don't call him a jerk. I don't think he a jerk. [00:07:08] Speaker B: Speaking of Vivica, some of the things he do, man, is like, this guy. [00:07:12] Speaker A: Yeah, that's Jamie Foxx aunt. Yeah, that was her. [00:07:14] Speaker B: This guy's a freaking asshole. It's one of those things. [00:07:17] Speaker A: One of my favorite scenes is his homeboy Jeff. His wife. His wife, like, cuss a lot. So they had. Got a new house, and she shortened his name up. Sometimes she be like, yo, Larry. So he came down, he's like, so they got a new house, he came down, he's like, yo, Larry, you want to do a tour? He was like, eh, I get it. Windows, doors, bedrooms, bathrooms. I get it. [00:07:41] Speaker B: See, that's what I mean. He's an asshole. [00:07:43] Speaker A: Yeah, but it's the truth. Like, I don't want to see your house. He just says it what you think without being nice. [00:07:48] Speaker B: Why you think it's not asshole? [00:07:49] Speaker A: Nah, that's not asshole. That's the truth. To me. Being an asshole is being a liar. And he's not a liar. Oh, no. Now he is a jerk with like, if he think you lying, he'll, like, listen to you talk and he'll be, like, looking at you like he'll do shit like that. But me and my homeboy shout out to my boy Chad. He put me up on curve when I started watching it. Yeah, I think this is one of the scenes where he tripped Shaq. No, no, that's not it. He was on the. Floyd tripped Shaq. Yeah. That's a good number five. It's binge worthy. [00:08:20] Speaker B: It definitely is. [00:08:21] Speaker A: And your number five kind of go along with my Number five. [00:08:24] Speaker B: Okay. [00:08:25] Speaker A: And the reason why I think both of these are great binge worthy shows. Now my number five is a show. South Carolina native Aziz Ansari. It's a Netflix show called Master of None. [00:08:40] Speaker B: Okay. I've never seen this one. [00:08:41] Speaker A: Yeah, it only has two seasons. [00:08:44] Speaker B: Okay. [00:08:46] Speaker A: No, it has three seasons. The first season is him. He basically plays himself. No, he doesn't play himself, but he just lives in New York. Kind of quirky guy, Indian guy, whatever. But it's just real funny. Well, it's kind of about the same type of funny as Curb or whatever. Not like over the top laugh track funny or just funny stuff. He says funny stuff. He gets in these little situations. But one thing about it is when this first came out, I wanna say it came out in 2020, so like a lot of the stuff that was going on was like heavy. It's not like a heavy show. It's real lighthearted. It's a simple show. You probably could watch it with whatever going on in the background. It ain't really deep or nothing like that. [00:09:34] Speaker B: So he basically playing the same role he plays everywhere. [00:09:37] Speaker A: Kinda, right? Kinda. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:09:40] Speaker B: I'm not saying it in a bad way. He's funny. [00:09:42] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:09:43] Speaker B: What's that? White Castle. Those White Castle. [00:09:47] Speaker A: That's not the same guy. It's not? No. [00:09:50] Speaker B: Yes, it. [00:09:51] Speaker A: That's not the same guy. That's not the same guy. Oh Lord, I promise you that's not Aziz Ansari. Harold and Kumar go to White Castle. That's not Kumar. [00:09:59] Speaker B: Oh, that's not Kumar. [00:10:01] Speaker A: Yes, that's the stand up guy. [00:10:03] Speaker B: The stand up comedian. [00:10:04] Speaker A: Little racist guy right there. But yeah, but yeah, I like it. It's cool. His best friend is Lena Waithe on the show. He's a tight friend or whatever. She talked to him, whatever. But it's a good little light hearted show. If you don't want like. Cause sometimes you watch like suspense show or whatever, you get anxiety and all kind of stuff. It kind of work you up. But this is a show you can watch before you go to bed or whatever. You just chilling like it's a good little show. It's a little light hearted show. Yeah, but that's a good one. I might have to master none on Netflix. It's three seasons. The first two, he's in the first two. Then the third season he got into some council culture type stuff. Well, not kind of. They tried to put it as like me too stuff. Yeah, but he really like when the woman finally told the story, it was like he Was just a weird dude trying to holler at you. Like, trying to smash. [00:10:58] Speaker B: Is he gay? [00:10:58] Speaker A: No, he's not gay. [00:10:59] Speaker B: Only reason I say that. Cause that scene where he was on the couch, like the books that was on the coffee table. One of the books was like a rainbow flag looking thing. So I thought maybe they. [00:11:12] Speaker A: I mean, you don't gotta be gay to know about gay culture or gay culture. [00:11:15] Speaker B: I'm just saying. I was saying, was he playing a gay guy? Nah. [00:11:18] Speaker A: Nah. So, yeah, Master Nun, that's my number five. What's your number four? [00:11:23] Speaker B: My number four. It's a HBO series. The year was 2020. Covid one season. It's hard to find because they have so many shows out with the same name. The name of this one was the Outsiders. [00:11:43] Speaker A: Got some good actors in there, Jones. [00:11:44] Speaker B: Yeah, man, I think it was. I'm not gonna spoil it, but some of the actors that you thought was gonna be in the whole series didn't make it. Like, it was a quick. [00:11:54] Speaker A: What type of show is it? [00:11:56] Speaker B: All right, well, this guy, like, is it a. What's his name? [00:12:01] Speaker A: Yeah, Bateman. Jason Bateman. [00:12:03] Speaker B: Jason Bateman. He was not framed, but they thought he killed a kid. [00:12:09] Speaker A: Oh, okay. [00:12:10] Speaker B: It was kids being killed in the area. [00:12:13] Speaker A: Oh, like a serial killer. [00:12:15] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, I don't want to get too into it. [00:12:17] Speaker A: Okay. But I mean, is it like a supernatural show? Suspense drama? [00:12:22] Speaker B: It could be spirit. [00:12:24] Speaker A: Oh, one of those. [00:12:27] Speaker B: It's hard to say it, but not say it. He may or may have not killed it. There's a scene if you look up the trailer, it was like, well, how did he kill this kid if he was 700 miles away in front of this camera and, you know. [00:12:43] Speaker A: Oh, okay. [00:12:44] Speaker B: It's definitely a good watch. I was mad they only did one season. [00:12:47] Speaker A: Oh, it was only one season? [00:12:48] Speaker B: Yeah, one season. Did you know why? [00:12:50] Speaker A: Did you hear why? [00:12:51] Speaker B: No, I didn't. I didn't. This was during COVID 2020. So it also had the detective lady. [00:12:59] Speaker A: Was, ooh, this nigga bad with names. [00:13:03] Speaker B: Ooh, I'm bad with names. I don't wanna say the wrong thing. [00:13:09] Speaker A: Maybe she'll show up. [00:13:10] Speaker B: Black lady. [00:13:12] Speaker A: Oh, God. He don't like black women. He don't know black women. Vivica A. Fox. [00:13:16] Speaker B: That was the ones you know, right? [00:13:18] Speaker A: Nyla Lehman. [00:13:19] Speaker B: Nah, it was. [00:13:20] Speaker A: What she playing? [00:13:21] Speaker B: She looked like the one from Orange is the New Black, but I don't think it's that one. [00:13:25] Speaker A: Okay, well, we'll never know. I mean, look it up while I talk about mine. [00:13:31] Speaker B: I Might be able to pull it up. But that's my number four. It is a watch and it's only one season. I kind of think. I think this was a Stephen King novel. [00:13:40] Speaker A: Was it a limited series? [00:13:42] Speaker B: No, I think it just didn't get picked up. Stephen King. I think it was just a long. Yeah, a limited series. [00:13:50] Speaker A: Oh, okay. That's why I was on the. Okay. [00:13:52] Speaker B: A Stephen King novel, I think so you know how graphic it could be. Stephen King was like the only person like that I would see in horror movies that where the kid would die or they kidnapping kids. The movie was, you know, the clown eating kids or whatever it was doing to the kids. And it was a shocker to see that first episode. A kid being, you know, whatever handle. [00:14:20] Speaker A: Yes, My number four is another HBO show. It had like five or six seasons or four seasons, something like that. I got onto it late and so this is why I say it's binge worthy, because I actually binged it and caught up at the end. It's a show called Secession. Another HBO show. It's about a family that the guy there, the white haired old guy, he owns like a TV news network. Super rich billionaire and he's supposed to be like the guy that owns Fox. [00:15:02] Speaker B: Oh, okay. So it's kind of loosely based. [00:15:06] Speaker A: I don't know if it's loosely based or could be loosely based or whatever. But it's supposed to mirror the things that happen at their network or whatever. But it's a real good show, you know what I'm saying? Shows like that got real good acting, you know, the dialogue, the back and forth be real slick and you know, stuff that people really wouldn't say in real life at the moment a lot of times. But it's real good the way, you know, they handle the stuff, whatever, but just to see how people with that level of money would move around, moving shake and stuff. But it's a real good show. CL put me up on that. Shout out to CL from Relationship Status and Crux Media. He put me up on that show. So he told me it was good and he was like, man, yeah, you need to check that out, man. So I did and I got hooked and I caught up and caught up by the end of it. [00:15:52] Speaker B: So that's really story based. No action story based. [00:15:57] Speaker A: That's any action. Yes, it's definitely story based. Yeah. But that's another HBO show, HBO don't miss on. Yeah, they got a lot of them, bro. [00:16:04] Speaker B: Can you come up with a HBO movie that didn't hit Like a series, like all the series, like, hit that didn't hit. [00:16:13] Speaker A: I can't think of it. [00:16:13] Speaker B: I can go back to damn, Oz. All of them hit. [00:16:17] Speaker A: There's gotta be something that didn't hit. But it might not have hit for us. But it probably hit for somebody else. For everybody else. [00:16:23] Speaker B: Yeah, man. HBO. They got them series, man. HBOs up there. [00:16:28] Speaker A: What's your number three? [00:16:29] Speaker B: All right. My number three is sons of Anarchy, man. [00:16:34] Speaker A: Never watched it. [00:16:35] Speaker B: What? [00:16:35] Speaker A: Nah. [00:16:36] Speaker B: See, when this came out, matter of fact, it came out in, I'll tell you right now, 2008. It started on USA. [00:16:45] Speaker A: It did, yeah. Then it moved to FX. [00:16:47] Speaker B: Then it moved to FX, I think. Yep. And then now you can find it on Hulu and all that other stuff now. But they had seven seasons. I was super into motorcycles at the time when it first came out, like motorcycle clubs and all that. Not, you know, motorcycle clubs. Now that you think, you know, I was really enjoying or liking the vibe of the 1 percenters. Them the big dogs, the full patch people. Not the. What do they call them now? [00:17:21] Speaker A: You talking about social clubs? I don't look at them the same. [00:17:24] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:25] Speaker A: Cause they don't be. Yeah, they ain't the same exactly. They just got that look. [00:17:28] Speaker B: This was motorcycle outlaws. If you didn't know about outlaws and motorcycles, this is it. Because they all the way from the rankings how some of them make their money and stuff like that. And it was good. There's a couple people that's on here that end up being on a lot of other movies. The guy behind. Well, if you're watching this, the guy behind him is the guy from Power, the father. [00:17:58] Speaker A: He from all about the Benjamins too. [00:18:00] Speaker B: Oh, yep, you're right. [00:18:01] Speaker A: Come on, man. [00:18:02] Speaker B: What does he know his name? [00:18:04] Speaker A: Nah, he white. You don't know his name either. [00:18:08] Speaker B: I'm not giving no names up because now that I'm 100% that I know the person's name, but that's my number three, man. So Zay Anarchy. Catch up on it. It's a real good story because it tells about a motorcycle club that the young prince of the club, now his father started. It started going bad when another guy ran the club and they started doing a lot more illegal stuff and killings and stuff like that. So it's one of those action, too. A lot of action. [00:18:45] Speaker A: So my number three has something in common with your number three. [00:18:47] Speaker B: Okay. [00:18:49] Speaker A: White Crime Base Show. What network did it start on? I think it. Was it on? No, this was on amc, so. This one was on amc but it was a white crime based show and this show was Breaking Bad. [00:19:10] Speaker B: Okay. It's a big one. [00:19:12] Speaker A: Yeah. Now, the thing it has in common was both of them have spinoffs. So Breaking Bad got a spinoff and Sons of Van Epic got a spin off this story. If you don't know what Breaking Bad is, it's about a chemistry teacher who finds out he has cancer, can't afford to pay for his treatment, and he starts selling drugs to be able to fund his cancer treatment. And then he. A good chemistry teacher and he learns how to make some of the purest meth there is. And hilarity ensues. [00:19:49] Speaker B: So did that. I know he was a younger guy with him. [00:19:53] Speaker A: He was his former student. [00:19:55] Speaker B: Student, right. Is he the one that brought it to him? Like, hey, you can make this or. Cause I only watched a little bit of it. [00:20:01] Speaker A: I'm trying to remember how. [00:20:04] Speaker B: Or he caught the kid making it. [00:20:08] Speaker A: No, he saw the kid running from the police, from a house. Cause he jumped out the window of a house. And I forgot how they got connected on it, but I think maybe the kid went to him for help or something like that. But yeah, it was his former student. Yeah. [00:20:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:30] Speaker A: But yeah, it's a good show. A lot of good actors in it. Like Juan Carlo Esposito right there that you see. [00:20:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:38] Speaker A: AKA Buggin Out. [00:20:39] Speaker B: Buggin Out. [00:20:40] Speaker A: You know what I mean? [00:20:43] Speaker B: What's my Brother Almighty? [00:20:45] Speaker A: What was his name in do the Right Thing? No, not do the Right Thing. [00:20:49] Speaker B: School day is Big Brother Almighty. [00:20:51] Speaker A: No, not that. In Fresh. What was his name in Fresh? Esteban. [00:20:57] Speaker B: Esteban, yeah. Yeah, we work for Esteban now. [00:21:03] Speaker A: And we was talking about Fat Joe last episode. Did I say that's the. I don't know, but I saw it on social media. They were saying, that's Fat Joe. Yeah. Breaking Bad. I want to say they had five seasons. Stars. Bryan Cranston, you see him on a lot of stuff. He was on. Started out Malcolm in the Middle. He played the daddy on Malcolm in the Middle. He's the star of that show. But Breaking Bad, it's a show that got action, but it's a binge worthy show. That's one of my most binge worthy shows right there. [00:21:37] Speaker B: Yep, yep. [00:21:38] Speaker A: That was good. Your number. What we on number? [00:21:40] Speaker B: My number? Two. [00:21:41] Speaker A: Two. [00:21:42] Speaker B: Yeah, we up at the top of the list. [00:21:45] Speaker A: This is a good one though. [00:21:46] Speaker B: Yeah, it's coming out with a new one now. [00:21:50] Speaker A: New season. [00:21:50] Speaker B: Yeah, new season. Season four will be out in October 26th. The show is Mayor of Kingstowne. I'm not gonna say the guy's name. [00:22:02] Speaker A: Jeremy Renner. [00:22:03] Speaker B: There you go. [00:22:03] Speaker A: Jesus Christ. He's also known as Hawkeye. [00:22:06] Speaker B: Hawkeye. Yep. [00:22:08] Speaker A: And some other stuff. [00:22:09] Speaker B: He's basically. I think when he started out, he wasn't the mayor, but he was so connected to the streets, right? [00:22:16] Speaker A: Yeah. He's not the mayor. [00:22:17] Speaker B: He's not the mayor. [00:22:17] Speaker A: They just call him that. [00:22:18] Speaker B: All right. That's what I was. He's connected to the streets. He's a private eye. [00:22:25] Speaker A: He. Not really. He just do stuff. He ain't really a private eye. He just kind of like a freelance type of dude. No, he might be like a private eye type. Yeah. Cause he got an office. Yeah. [00:22:37] Speaker B: Yeah. So either way, a lot of people on both sides of the world, the cop world, bad guys, they all come to him to kind of mediate stuff. Negotiate stuff. Yeah. Mediate to the point where he can do night visits at a damn jail just to bring some information and stuff like that. But this is a real good movie. Real good series. It's basically about his family also. His brother's an officer, officer of the pd. His mother is in it. She plays a good part in it. Cause their father was a police officer also. So this was it. This was it for me. [00:23:25] Speaker A: Yeah. That is real good. Shout out to CL Again. He told me to watch this. [00:23:29] Speaker B: I'm glad it's coming out with a new season also. [00:23:31] Speaker A: Yeah. And I started it late and I caught up to, like, when they were to the last season that they put out. So I caught up to that. And it is. That's a good one for a binge worth. Cause it got action. It's alone to me. It's alone to, like. If I was to put it in a group of, like, shows, it would go in a group of shows with, like, power. It could. [00:23:52] Speaker B: It definitely could. [00:23:53] Speaker A: Shows, like. It's a lot of shows, but, like, shows that got, like, a lot of action. Stuff happens in it. That's like. [00:24:01] Speaker B: What's that one? We are the city chill. Oh, I'm sorry. [00:24:08] Speaker A: Matter of fact. [00:24:10] Speaker B: Well, either way. [00:24:11] Speaker A: Well, we on the city. That's on my list, though. I know, but we own the city. Happened in real life. That was real. [00:24:15] Speaker B: Okay. [00:24:16] Speaker A: Everything on that base. Yeah. I was like, hold up. That. But We Own this City is my honorable mention. [00:24:22] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:24:22] Speaker A: It's one of my honorable mentions. [00:24:24] Speaker B: If you've seen that. This gives me that feel. [00:24:27] Speaker A: It does kind of like that. Yeah. But it's another show that I'm thinking of. But Mayor of Kingstowne, I think it's called. Mayor of Eastside. That used to come on. It was a HBO show. [00:24:40] Speaker B: I didn't see that one. [00:24:41] Speaker A: Yeah, that was pretty good. But it kind of reminds me of that. But some of the stuff that happened on this is kind of like Stretch, like you said, he visiting the jail at night and stuff like that. [00:24:50] Speaker B: Middle of the night, he go to the jail. [00:24:51] Speaker A: Yeah, but. But yeah, that was a good one. My number two is probably one of the most famous shows of the last 15, 20 years. Yeah, one of the biggest ones of the last 15, 20 years. I don't know if it is or not, but Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones. [00:25:17] Speaker B: Okay, you right, yeah, you got that one. [00:25:20] Speaker A: Game of Thrones is binge worthy to me because. And I take it, you know, from my personal experience. So I was up in Virginia, I was visiting my homeboy. We were going to dc. He was an engineer, so he was engineer on the train. So we were going to dc. So he was actually operating the train. So I was on the train. I was like, man, he's like, man, check out this show. Game of Thrones, whatever. So he gave me the dvd. He had the box set or what happened in the seasons. I'm like, all right. So on the train ride up, I started watching it on my computer and got hooked on the train ride up by like the third episode. I was like, yo, I love this show. [00:25:53] Speaker B: Oh, word. [00:25:54] Speaker A: And binged it and binged it and binged it until I caught up. But yeah, this show is different. It's not as like magical as like a Harry Potter and not as like crazy as like a Spartacus type shit. [00:26:11] Speaker B: Okay. [00:26:12] Speaker A: But it got some killing, it got some good acting, it got some magic, it got some war, it got some everything in it. [00:26:19] Speaker B: That's a good in between there. [00:26:20] Speaker A: Yeah, you're right. Yeah. But it's a good show though. Real good show. [00:26:24] Speaker B: A famous show too. [00:26:25] Speaker A: I mean, I ain't want to spoil nobody on that scene right there. You ever seen it? [00:26:30] Speaker B: Nah, I never really caught it. [00:26:31] Speaker A: Oh, you gotta watch it. [00:26:32] Speaker B: I never got into. You know what? My younger brother told me, he showed me the last scene, told me to watch the last scene, that I will go back and watch the rest of it. And I watched it. It was good. I just had. I just didn't do it yet. [00:26:50] Speaker A: In one of them Sopranos times, you might go back and watch this. Cause, let me see, how can I explain it? I don't want to spoil it, but stuff happened in this show. One of the things that make a show good to me is the writers willingness to kill off a major character. [00:27:11] Speaker B: Oh yeah. [00:27:12] Speaker A: And they kill off a major character. [00:27:16] Speaker B: You know what? In TV history, TV and movie history, that's the cheat code. Now if you want to wow people kill the main character. [00:27:25] Speaker A: Yeah, but a lot of shows are scared. Yeah, a lot of shows are scared to kill the main character. [00:27:30] Speaker B: Yep. Some of them got enough that they could do it through the whole damn season. [00:27:34] Speaker A: That's why, like you mentioned the Wire earlier. We talked about the Wire earlier on the Wire. Really? Like you really didn't know who was gonna die? Cause just like in real life, you don't know who gonna die. Whatever, you know what I'm saying? So especially when you living in street life like they were. [00:27:48] Speaker B: Talk about the Wire one more time. The scene where the female cop got shot. I just knew she was dead. [00:27:54] Speaker A: Yeah, but her living is like real life. [00:27:57] Speaker B: Yeah. Yep. [00:27:57] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? And what happened after that with her wife being mad or a girlfriend? I don't know if they were mad at the time. Married. [00:28:05] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:28:05] Speaker A: But her being. Wanting her to. Well, her wanting her to quit the force and all of that, you know what I'm saying? Right after that, you know all of that kind of stuff. [00:28:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:16] Speaker A: Your number one. [00:28:17] Speaker B: Yep. Since you're spoiling, you're doing a spoiler by mentioning the Sopranos. [00:28:25] Speaker A: Oh, I did mention the Sopranos. [00:28:26] Speaker B: I think you did that on purpose. [00:28:27] Speaker A: Nah, I didn't. [00:28:30] Speaker B: That's my number one. That's my number one for all series, for everything. If anybody asks me what to watch, this is my one year watch. Every year I watch this from season one. You watch everybody grow up. The daggone kids is in elementary school and by the time the seasons are over, they already out of college. [00:28:56] Speaker A: How many seasons? [00:28:57] Speaker B: Um, I think it's six. It's six seasons. [00:28:59] Speaker A: Hey, bro, this your show. You watch this every year and you don't know how many seasons it is? [00:29:04] Speaker B: I just told you. You thought I didn't know. [00:29:06] Speaker A: You said, I think it's six seasons. Well, guess what is it? Six. [00:29:09] Speaker B: Six seasons. [00:29:10] Speaker A: Okay, there you go. How about that? The only thing, did people like how it ended or they didn't like how it ended? [00:29:16] Speaker B: They didn't like how it ended. [00:29:16] Speaker A: A lot of people didn't like it. [00:29:17] Speaker B: Nah, they didn't like it. Cause it was one of those Screen goes to black. [00:29:23] Speaker A: I ain't want you to say it. [00:29:24] Speaker B: I'm saying it. Screen go to black. [00:29:28] Speaker A: And that was It. [00:29:29] Speaker B: That was it. [00:29:29] Speaker A: I know Chris Rock. I mean, Everybody Hates Chris did a. They ended their show the same way. [00:29:35] Speaker B: Yeah, I didn't like that. I didn't like that at all. [00:29:37] Speaker A: What? How everybody. [00:29:39] Speaker B: Yeah, how they. [00:29:39] Speaker A: How Sopranos did it? [00:29:40] Speaker B: No, how Everybody Hates Chris. [00:29:42] Speaker A: Why? [00:29:43] Speaker B: I just didn't like it. [00:29:44] Speaker A: Oh, you didn't like the show? [00:29:45] Speaker B: No, I didn't like the way they ended it. [00:29:47] Speaker A: It ended spoofing that. [00:29:49] Speaker B: I know, but they really ended it like that. It still ended like that. [00:29:53] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:29:53] Speaker B: They didn't come back and say, oh, we just playing. [00:29:56] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah. But the show was supposed to be over. [00:29:57] Speaker B: Yeah. All right. Well, Sopranos came out. I think it came out in 2008. 1999. Shit. 1999 has a lot of guest appearance on there. If you like mob movies or mob series. It's Casino, Goodfellas, all of that wrapped in one. It's stretched out six seasons. [00:30:26] Speaker A: It's. What? I was just joking, man. That was not a good pause. Go ahead. [00:30:30] Speaker B: Yeah. Cause it was. If we doing pauses, if we doing that again, we bringing it back. [00:30:37] Speaker A: What do you mean, bringing it back? [00:30:39] Speaker B: I kind of stopped. [00:30:40] Speaker A: Okay, good for you. [00:30:43] Speaker B: But it's all that in one. Every episode's about an hour or something or whatever. There's always something going on. Somebody's. They do kill off good people here. Main characters. They kill off main characters. It's all mob stuff. It's all about. You know, the real outline of it is around Tony, the mob boss. The fact that he's going to a therapist and he tells a story and, you know, which is shunned upon in any mob or any underworld. You're not supposed to be talking to nobody. So this is based off of that? Yeah, I kind of think it was based off of a book, but I do know it was based loosely based off of real people in real situations. [00:31:37] Speaker A: Yeah, I got. I still. I tried to watch it. I think I might have watched a couple episodes, but I never watched the whole thing. Yeah. [00:31:44] Speaker B: I might try starting the early episodes. The, you know, the coloring is different. This is 1999. Like, it was 90s still, you know. [00:31:55] Speaker A: Jesus Christ. [00:31:57] Speaker B: It didn't have the sharpness that, you know. But it was still good. It was still very good. [00:32:05] Speaker A: My number one brings us a little bit closer to now. Do I watch it every year? I don't think I watched it this year yet. But it's closer to my culture, my age. A lot of the things that were going on in it. I got. It seemed like it was written for A person like me and the show was Atlanta. A lot of the jokes I got at on the first time, written by Donald Glover, producing all of that. Atlanta about somebody in Atlanta, but not like the hood hood in Atlanta, just a regular person in Atlanta trying to make it, going through whatever. He's trying to help his cousin get big in the music industry. And it's just got some funny parts, got some action. I think it's a real smart show. [00:33:04] Speaker B: The characters. I love the characters. [00:33:05] Speaker A: Yeah, the characters. Yeah. And it's like real people, like, I know real people like Darius, I know real people like Paperboy, like, you know what I'm saying? It's one episode where Paperboy, who was one of the. One of the lead characters, he goes to the barbershop and his barber is doing all kind of stuff with him or whatever. Like back in the day, you go to the barbershop, man, he gonna cut them clippers off and start talking and, you know, eating and doing all kind of stuff, you know what I'm saying? So just a lot of the stuff that happened, that happened in the culture. [00:33:40] Speaker B: Like he took that nigga on a mission. [00:33:42] Speaker A: Yeah, like the first episode, when you was talking about it, the beginning of the episode, how it is, but like something happened at the end. I mean, it ain't spoiling it, but it was like an invisible car in it or whatever. Like just silly. But it was funny. He in there. It was one episode later on where he ran against. He raced Mike Vick. And people was like in real life back in the day in Atlanta, people would be at the club racing Mike Vick for bread and they would get beat. But, you know. But yeah, so this is my number one binge worthy show. [00:34:22] Speaker B: They have like crazy. They got crazy episodes. [00:34:28] Speaker A: Yeah, they do have some crazy episodes. [00:34:29] Speaker B: The so called. Can I say the Michael Jackson. Is that a Michael Jackson? Almost. [00:34:35] Speaker A: Teddy Perkins is what it. Yeah, we did on this show. We know Teddy Perkins. [00:34:39] Speaker B: Okay. So they got stuff like that. You never know those episodes. [00:34:45] Speaker A: The Teddy Perkins episode was commercials. The one that was supposed to be Tyler Perry type dude. That one. Yeah, the one episode. Now that episode you talking about with the commercials, it wasn't until like the third time they did that Dodge commercial that you knew it was a fake commercial. [00:35:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:35:08] Speaker A: And then they had, and I still use this phrase, they had an Arizona, Arizona tea commercial. And if you drink Arizona teas, especially in the can, you go in the store, you get it. It's 99 cent on the can. So the guy get to Arizona, he Walked through, put the Arizona down on the thing. The guy rang it up and it comes up to like 130something. And dude was like 130something. He was like, but the price on the can though. And the dude look at the can, he like the price is on the can though. And they look confused like. But the price on the can though, like how's it 135? And the price on the can. But the crazy part about it is the person that make Arizona iced teas, they had a thing where like if you go to a store and it's more than 99 cents, take a picture, whatever. And I wanna say they said they'll get the product out of that store because they don't want it to be more than 99 cent. [00:36:11] Speaker B: Oh wow. [00:36:12] Speaker A: Like they do whatever they can to keep it at that price for people. Cause they know stuff, inflation and all of that. So they try to make it 99 cent. But yeah, so every time I go, huh, that's crazy. [00:36:23] Speaker B: I wonder if they still 99 cent. [00:36:25] Speaker A: I think it might be 120 now or something. But the price on the can though. So whenever I go and I get an Arizona and I put it up to the thing and it'd be more. I'd be like, hey bro, the price on the can though, nobody know what I'm talking about. But it's my own inside joke. But look like stuff like that, like they had a fake. It was like a cartoon and it's a cocoa. Basically a cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. [00:36:47] Speaker B: Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs spoof. [00:36:49] Speaker A: But it's a wolf. But then the wolf get beat up by the police. But the kids like, hey man, you ain't gotta beat em like that, man. Yeah, it's just like they just real smart with it then like a lot of the stuff in the culture like that we know they will take off of that in some of the later episodes. Especially just a real smart show. [00:37:14] Speaker B: And really the show is about. It's about a manager and a hip hop artist. Like. Right, that's what it really based on. [00:37:28] Speaker A: No, it's really based on Earn just. [00:37:29] Speaker B: Trying to make it the manager. Yeah, he's the manager. [00:37:32] Speaker A: Yeah, he the manager. But he really just trying to make it. Cause he just really trying to do whatever he can to make it like whatever it is. So it started off he was selling credit cards in the airport and he really wasn't making no money doing that. So he kind of used his cousin to make money. Cause he really wasn't good at his job starting out. And his uncle even told him that, like, you know what I'm saying? You really just leeching off your cousin? His uncle was played by Cat Williams in the episode the Alligator Man. He won an Emmy off of that too. But, yeah, it's just a good show. Funny show. Looked something like it was something to look forward to every week. It dealt with some topics, but it wasn't, like, over the top heavy. [00:38:23] Speaker B: To. [00:38:23] Speaker A: Where you would feel, like, too anxious at the end of it. And that's why I. Yeah, it's three or four. I think it was four. They broke season three up into two, if I'm not mistaken. I wanna say it was four seasons, but. Yeah, that's my number one. Okay. Atlanta honorable mentions. Yeah, I got a few honorable mentions. Yeah, it was four seasons of Atlanta. I knew. Yeah. [00:38:51] Speaker B: Okay. [00:38:54] Speaker A: Well, we mentioned one. We Own this city, me and Kane. Shout out to Kane from the Kane is Able podcast. We did a recap of We Own the City and We Own the City is a true story about a corrupt Baltimore, like, unit or whatever. And some of the stuff that they did. It's an article about it that I read too, like, while we were watching it, and I read it to see what was gonna happen, like, how close it followed to what they put on the show. And, like, everything they put in the show, like, the way they wrote it, they put it in the show. Like, they didn't put a lot of extras on it to, like, put extra. Extra hype on it or whatever. Like, they really did the stuff and it was kind of recent, so, like, the people that they got to do the acting kind of look like those people. [00:39:42] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:39:42] Speaker A: And even at the end of it, like, what happened to one of the detectives was kind of. It was shocking to what he did or whatever. But, yeah, it was a good show. That was a good show. [00:39:54] Speaker B: When did that come on? [00:39:56] Speaker A: That was on hbo. [00:39:57] Speaker B: Yeah, that was on hbo Banger. [00:39:59] Speaker A: And that was a limited series, too, so it was only like six or seven episodes. Yeah, it wasn't the whole. [00:40:05] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:40:05] Speaker A: Yeah. Like multiple seasons. [00:40:07] Speaker B: I don't know why I thought that was. Oh, that's the other one. [00:40:10] Speaker A: What? [00:40:11] Speaker B: Your Honor. [00:40:12] Speaker A: Your honor. Yeah, that was a good one, too. Yep, Yep. We on the Night is another. [00:40:19] Speaker B: It's like that one. [00:40:21] Speaker A: So is it called We On Tonight? It's another HBO show. It's about a. You try to figure out. Well, go ahead. Tell you what. I'm gonna see if this is. [00:40:33] Speaker B: Tell you mine. My honorable mention. [00:40:34] Speaker A: Yeah. One of your honorable Mentions Ozark. [00:40:37] Speaker B: Ozark came out in 2017. [00:40:40] Speaker A: Yeah. A lot of people got on Ozark during COVID Covid, Yep. That's when I got on it. [00:40:45] Speaker B: Four seasons. I think that's when I got on it too. It was like, man, I think everybody was like, yeah, let's just click on it. Somebody clicked on it and did it. [00:40:52] Speaker A: And then it spread like wildfire. Now it got so good when people were, like, looking for Ozark to come back. And I don't know if it's coming. Something happened to why it ain't coming back. [00:41:04] Speaker B: So did they end up putting the last season out after it was already popular? [00:41:12] Speaker A: Yeah, another season came out after it. [00:41:14] Speaker B: Was popular, so they put it out. They wasn't making it no more, was they? [00:41:18] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:41:19] Speaker B: I caught on late because if it came out in 2017 and say the new season ain't come out today in 2020. [00:41:28] Speaker A: So he was only in 17. It was only one season. [00:41:31] Speaker B: No, 17 had be three seasons. [00:41:34] Speaker A: Let me see. [00:41:36] Speaker B: That's what I'm thinking, that last season might have came out because of how popular it began. [00:41:42] Speaker A: It ended in 2022. [00:41:45] Speaker B: 22, yeah. So four seasons between 17 and 22. I think that's what happened. [00:41:52] Speaker A: I think that's kind of. Cause it came out July 2020. 2017. 17. [00:42:01] Speaker B: Definitely a good one. What was it about? It was about a guy. [00:42:05] Speaker A: He was a money launderer. No, he wasn't a money launderer. He was an accountant. And then I wanna. Did it start off with him already being. [00:42:14] Speaker B: No, his partner. [00:42:16] Speaker A: His partner was dirty. His partner was dirty. And because he was the partner, the mob leaned. The gangsters leaned on him. [00:42:22] Speaker B: Yep. They killed the partner. [00:42:26] Speaker A: Yeah. Threw him out a window. [00:42:27] Speaker B: They killed the partner in the first episode. So he. They basically wanted him to launder money for a casino down in the Ozark. Right. So that's how that went. I had to put that together myself. It's been so long since I saw that one. And everybody's been wanting to see another. [00:42:50] Speaker A: Older. Yeah. [00:42:52] Speaker B: What's that guy name again? [00:42:54] Speaker A: Jason Bateman. [00:42:54] Speaker B: There we go. He's on this show. [00:42:55] Speaker A: He was in another show, too, that just came out and people were talking about it. This is the show I'm talking about. It's a show on hbo. Another HBO show called the Night Of. [00:43:05] Speaker B: Okay. [00:43:06] Speaker A: It came out in 2016. And it's about a guy that. He picks up a woman in his dad's cab and he's accused of killing her or whatever, and they go through Whether or not he did it and the evidence and some stuff he did that was messed up. It's a real good. Real good acting. Real good show. The night of. Me and my. My cousin had started watching it too, and I had told him about it. He was like, man, yeah, I love that show. And he normally watch, like tubi shows or whatever. [00:43:40] Speaker B: Oh, my God. [00:43:41] Speaker A: He watching some kind of stuff like that. But yeah. What's your. You got another one?
