Scifi Tv Rewatch

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the HBOMax series The Nevers, and our listener feedback.  This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the pilot episode of Joss Whedon’s The Nevers and whether or not Amalia True attempts suicide at the moment of the supernatural event. Have the Touched been specifically targeted rather than randomly chosen? At this point we don’t have a clear sense of why Maladie targets the Touched and who’s responsible for the event of 1896. In our What We're Watching segment, Wayne continues with Shadow and Bone but also adds the animated Star Wars: The Bad Batch to his viewing schedule. Dave recommends the Danish supernatural thriller Equinox which currently streams on Netflix. In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands provides a recap for each of the major characters.  Remember to join the genre television and film discussion on the SciFi TV Rewatch Facebook group and fo

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the HBOMax series Beforeigners, and our listener feedback.  This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the revelation that time travel does indeed go both ways. However, it’s Tore Hund’s admission to Alfhildr that as a child she was fished from the sea and raised by his father. In the visual flashback we see her wearing a bright orange life preserver, clearly an item from the 21st century. Will the return of Olav the Stout mark the beginning of a religious culture war, and what role will Madeleine play in the future of Norway? In our What We're Watching segment, Dave alerts listeners to the return of the Netflix fantasy series Lucifer which is set to drop on May 28th. Wayne spends time with Attack the Block, a 2011 film starring Doctor Who’s Jodie Whittaker. In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands wonders whether Alfhildr’s parents could still be alive in th

In our What We're Watching segment, Dave enjoys the HBOMax dark comedy Made For Love starring Cristin Milioti/Ray Romano.

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the HBOMax series Beforeigners, and our listener feedback.  This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the significance of the 19th century hacker/ninja woman who takes down Navn and breaks into Alfhildr’s computer. However, it’s Urd and Alfhildr’s acknowledgement that Tore Hund is alive and well in the present that proves the most compelling as we wait to see if they put the raiding, pillaging band back together.  In our What We're Watching segment, Wayne checks out the Netflix film La Revolution and the little known Nic Cage project Next. Dave talks about the Netflix series The Serpent starring Jenna Coleman and the HBOMax show The Missing.  In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands mentions the allusions/references regarding Amanda Tapping’s characters in Sanctuary and Stargate SG-1.  Remember to join the genre television and film discussion on the SciFi T

How much of our disbelief should we be required to suspend relative to Navn’s ability to put together a complex crime syndicate? Wayne offers up another edition of Project X and looks at some of the historical details pertinent to the episode.   In our What We're Watching segment, Dave speaks highly of the UK detective series DCI Banks and less so of his experience with The Lost Pirate Kingdom. Wayne sings the praises of the Japanese thriller Alice in Borderland. In Listener Feedback, we discuss comments from David Haworth, Tobias from Oslo, and Fred from the Netherlands.

Wayne also brings back Project X with a brief rundown of the Norwegian rite of passage embedded in the episode. In our What We're Watching segment, Dave talks about two Netflix series: Formula 1: The Drive to Survive and The Lost Pirate Kingdom.

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the classic military science fiction series Stargate SG-1, and our listener feedback.  This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we debate whether or not Apophis and Klorel die in the explosion of the two ships. Does the show and SG-1 need a new foe or can the Goa’uld threat continue to play well through subsequent seasons? And who is the most hated internal threat facing Stargate Command: Senator Kinsey, Colonel Maybourne, or Lt. Colonel Samuels? In our What We're Watching segment, Dave adds Croatia to his list of international shows with the HBO Europe crime drama Success.  Wayne completes his rewatch of the entire Star Trek movie catalog.  In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands laments the fact that we don’t see Senator Kinsey admit he was wrong all along.

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the classic military science fiction series Stargate SG-1, and our listener feedback.  This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we consider the drawbacks of employing a sharply drawn cliffhanger that forces viewers to wait months for a resolution, but praise the gut wrenching decisions the characters have to make. Will O’Neill recover emotionally after being forced to take out Skaara? But more importantly, how will SG-1 escape what appears to be the mother of all suicide missions? In our What We're Watching segment, Wayne continues to be amused with Letterkenny, but doesn’t understand the hate directed at Star Trek Into Darkness. Dave dives into yet another UK crime drama with the ultra dark Whitechapel.   To gather some context into our feelings about the film, journey back into the SFTVR vault and check out Episode 50, the October 17, 2013 discussion of Star Trek Into Dark

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the classic military science fiction series Stargate SG-1, and our listener feedback.  This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we come to terms with the fact that the first season’s penultimate episode falls far short of the established quality we’ve encountered to this point. Though Senator Kinsey comes off as a bit of a jerk, we acknowledge that he has a point questioning the expense and danger of a program like Stargate Command. And like many politicians, his antics seem to be more about him and his lack of foresight than the actual danger posed by Goa'uld. In our What We're Watching segment, Dave works his way through season 2 of A Discovery of Witches and sees promise in the German Netflix post-apocalyptic tale Tribes of Europa. Wayne sings the praises of the Korean scifi series Space Sweepers.  In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands gives the episode his lowe

Familiar, yet unfamiliar. Do the leaders of SGC 2 too easily follow Jackson’s request to sacrifice themselves to enable him to save his world? In our What We're Watching segment, Dave is currently watching C.B. Strike, a British crime drama that follows private investigator Cormoran Strike and his assistant and partner Robin Ellacott. The mini-series draws from four Strike novels written by Robert Galbraith aka J. K. Rowling. Having completed his rewatch of the Star Trek films with the original cast, Wayne looks forward to another interaction with the J. J. Abrams offerings. He also talks highly of Letterkenny.

In one of the more significant plot developments, the clones of Carter, O’Neill, and Daniel Jackson remain on Altair with Harlen setting up a potential return visit. In our What We're Watching segment, Wayne brings up the mystery, supernatural thriller 30 Coins, and Dave takes a break from television watching to check out the Netflix film The Dig.

Maybourne might have on the overall narrative as the team now has an Earth bound nemesis with which to contend. We also consider the brief relationship Carter has with Narim and whether it feels contrived or genuine. In our What We're Watching segment, Wayne completes his long and winding journey with The CW’s Supernatural, and Dave picks up another British crime drama in Scott and Bailey.  In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands feels the interaction between Samantha and Narim falls a bit flat.

Once again, it’s the women who save the day, but the frustration Capt. Carter and Dr. Frazier feel stands out among the events of a story that has not reached its conclusion.  In lieu of our What We're Watching segment, we briefly discuss the political unrest in the United States and the lack of understanding many have of the 1st amendment to the Constitution.  In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands wonders about the hot tub Hathor employs in her plot to create a new race of Goa'uld.  Remember to join the genre television and film discussion on the SciFi TV Rewatch Facebook group and follow us on Twitter @SciFiTVRewatch

Dave finally gets around to seeing Ford v Ferrari on HBOMax.  In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands agrees with Wayne that this episode’s alien is less than convincing and wonders how Dave missed out on Legos.  Remember to join the genre television and film discussion on the SciFi TV Rewatch Facebook group and
