The O.C.
Which pilot should we review next? Contact Dando and let him know at dando@fourfingerdiscount.com.auWe thought we'd take a trip to California this week with the pilot of The O.C. Honestly, this was a LOT of fun. The series is just such a time capsule, with a pretty impressive story amongst a barrage of dated jokes and terrible acting. Sandy Cohen however, in the words of Guy Davis...WHAT A LORD!Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as well as 100 hours of exclusive content!

The Shield
"Good pod and bad pod left for the day. I'm a different kind of pod." That's right, this week we're reviewing the kick-arse pilot episode of "The Shield", one of the greatest television shows of all time!So much to love, the oozing charisma of Michael Chiklis, the cut-throat directing, not to mention THAT ending. We also ask ourselves, is Vic Mackey a bad guy?Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as well as 100 hours of exclusive content!

The X-Files
Do you want to believe? Well you should, 'cause the pod...is out there! That's right, our pod where we go back and revisit the incredible pilot episode of 'The X-Files'!We're not quite sure there's much more that this episode could've delivered. The only thing missing was the classic theme song (don't worry, it's included here).Other than, a rather flawless first entry into the paranormal world of Mulder and Scully.What were your thoughts on the pilot?Which pilot should we review next?

Disenchantment
Safe to say, we were both left rather disenchanted after watching this pilot. As life-long Simpsons and Futurama fans, the hype going into this series was immense, for Dando in particular, which is what made this all the more disappointing. As Dando puts it, "every character is either an idiot, cruel or unhappy".Granted, the show most likely improves going forward, however as an introductory pilot episode, this didn't exactly leave us wanting more.

The Golden Girls
Thank-you for being a listener! Honestly, this is probably the most excited Dando has been to review an episode in a long time. The Golden Girls just makes you smile the second you think about it. Not to mention it has the greatest theme song of all-time.Here we discuss the pilot, which sees Rose, Dorothy and Sophia move in with Blanche, setting up one of the most beloved ensembles in television history.Which pilot should we review next?
