  1. In this episode of Dread Media, a tired and cranky Desmond Reddick presents what he has recovered of his messed up Festival of Fear coverage. In chronological order: a question and answer session with Slime City director Greg Lamberson, an interview with Edward Douglas from Midnight Syndicate and an interview with Greg Lamberson. Tunes include: "Unsound" by The Headstones, "Brain Damage" by The Browns, "Called from Beyond" by Midnight Syndicate, "Gruesome" by Giasone and Marcy Italiano and "Fear of the Dark (Live)" by Iron Maiden.

  2. I'm not sure I can express how I'm feeling right now. Quantum Leap really appealed to me as a kid, but as I write this I'm finding myself actually getting a little upset at times. That's because the fifth season has these little flashes of brilliance -- even the worst episode has the remarkable chemistry of Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell -- but as the episodes progress, the central concept falls flat. The idea of a man fixing the lives of ordinary people gets washed away by a listless parade of vague pseudo-celebrities, a fascination with its own mythology and a highly promoted new antagonist who has yet to really antagonize anyone. And it's a damn shame.

  3. In this king-sized episode of Dread Media, Brother D from Mail Order Zombie stops by to discuss all things George A. Romero. Which film are they both crazy for? What secret is Brother D hiding about OJ Simpson? And who does Desmond reserve a Michael Bay-level of hatred for? You better listen. Tunes included: "Season of the Witch" by Donovan, "The Calling (Main Title)" and "I'd Rather be a Wanderer" by Donald Rubinstein, "Bruiser" by The Misfits, "George Romero" by The Sprites and "George Romero Will be at Our Wedding" by Showbread.

  4. James Deaux and Ian Wilson join Mike this week, as the trio reviews the 1966 Batman movie, starring Adam West and Burt Ward. Along the way the guys discuss Robin's feelings about kissing girls, the monument to Benedict Arnold in Gotham City Central Park, the Riddler's wayward glances and the differences in how Americans and the British pronounce certain words.

  5. So the last time we did this thing, we got to see a show that was getting on in age, making all kinds of panic moves to rejuvenate itself. And on the whole, most of these moves worked in the short-term. There were some very good episodes on the first two discs. However, the charm of the show has been compromised to some extent. By this point, longtime fans were starting to grumble and drift away, and the new viewers, while beginning to trickle in, weren't flowing in fast enough to replace them.

  7. Throughout high school, if you had asked me what my favorite show was, my answer largely depended on whether there were any girls around. If so, I would have looked you right in the eyes and told you Cheers. This would, of course, have been a shameless lie. Truth be told, throughout most of high school, I was addicted to Quantum Leap.
