RSS Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Ian and Dave get together for a special bonus episode covering the table-reading of the unmade episode of The Middleman: "The Doomsday Armageddon Apocalypse," from the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con. The episode sees Manservant Neville's nefarious schemes come to fruition. Wendy and The Middleman must stop him from warping the very fabric of reality itself and turning all the beans into peas. They also embrace the use of wrestling terminology to describe the crowd's reaction, and celebrate a towering performance from Mark Sheppard.

slothian Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Ooh, we're changing up the titles for the mini-episode! Who knows what wacky stuff may come next?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Two references I think you missed:Code 47 (from last episode) could be a reference to how often the number 47 is used in Star Trek.And I think Raveena Rao's death by leukemia is a nod towards how Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell) died. Despite all of his triumphs over space aliens and crazy threats, it was cancer which killed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mockery Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Nice catches. Those were two things I wasn't aware of. It's always nice to find layers I didn't know about. Adds to my admiration for the writers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
