The Doctor reunites with Sarah Jane Smith to defend the world from an alien race bent on cracking it open ("School Reunion"). Then, The Doctor, Rose, and Mickey must save Madame de Pompadour from futuristic robots ("The Girl in the Fireplace"). Topping all that off, there are lots of e-mails, barely any curses, and someone has a cold.

Thanks to the generosity of Will Ackerman, Christian Honoré, and Matthew McKinnon-Gray, Shana and Mike sat down to discuss how they'd remake Saved by the Bell. In their revamp, both the original cast and a new cast are utilized, there are drugs and death, implied handjobs, and even science fiction. No, really. Also, Mike slaps himself during the recording, because, you know, it's Saved by the Bell.

Almost a year ago, I sat through The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part One. That movie had a profound effect on me. I've sat through and loved some truly shitty movies, but I had never seen anything quite like that film. I had never seen a movie that truly and honestly hated it's core audience so much. Women flock to the Twilight movies, and these movies fucking hate them for it. Even the actors hate it. After seeing the fourth movie in the series, I made a solemn vow: I would go back to the beginning. I would watch these films, and I would figure out exactly what the hell is happening. This is the first attempt. This is Twilight. To read more, click here: http://www.earth-2.net/reviews/m/twilight.php

Big Damn Heroes takes a break from its regularly scheduled broadcast to bring you the Zeppos Whedon Pilot Spectacular! Will covers the case of the multiple Willows, voiceovers about standing on tall buildings, and dooms us all by praising a Jeph Loeb work. All this and more after a word from our sponsors.

I'm going to level with you right now: there's been some lying going on on Animezing Podcast. Last time we said two weeks 'til the next episode, but it took three. This time we say two weeks again, but it will only be one. We also said there would be five episodes of Ouran High School Host Club ("Big Brother is a Prince!," "Honey's Three Bitter Days!," "Haruhi in Wonderland!," "Covering the Famous Host Club!," and "The Refreshing Battle in Karuizawa!"), but we decided on the fly to cover a sixth ("Operation Haruhi and Hikaru's First Date!").

Dying in the Gutters returns! Again! And boy, are Chris and Desmond stoked to talk about three excellent comic books: Tomb of Dracula #28-30. But there's also the painfully maddening Giant-Size Dracula #3-4. Ugh. Marvel at Dracula's racism! Wonder at black guys in China with Japanese names! Be amazed as Dracula babysits! Seriously, ol' Vlad should probably not be working for Child Services. [ 1:00:28 || 29.2 MB ] To listen, click here: http://www.earth-2.net/podcasts/dreadmedia/episodes/dreadmediapresents_034.mp3

Though Shana and Mike love Moonstruck, they do disagree on one point. As they recast it, however, they agree on not one but two actors! Also, Mike's words come back to haunt him. Twice.

Big Damn Heroes has hit episode 34, and, yeah, it's here kids. Thank to both Buffy and Angel, though not for the reasons you'd think on Angel, this is gonna be one hell of a depressing episode. There's no way around that. So sit down, get a pint of ice cream, and curl up with Hannah and Will as they cover Buffy's "I Was Made to Love You" and "The Body," and Angel's "Reprise" and "Epiphany."

Dave and Ian reach the end of season three of Blake's 7. In "Terminal," Avon, acting under instructions from a mysterious source, takes the Liberator to an artificial planet thought long destroyed. His haste to get there has a terrible price for the Liberator and its crew, and his arrival has been anticipated. They also look back over the highs and lows of the third season, receive some more medical knowledge from Dr. Stuart, and nearly wear out their dramatic music sting. Stay tuned after the credits to hear the trailer for the forthcoming Blake's 7 audio drama "Warship."

This episode of Dread Media must break you! Join us as we pay tribute to perhaps the most under-appreciated of action movie superstars: Dolph Lundgren. A trio of films are discussed this week, including Desmond and Darryll's much-requested review of The Punisher; Devil Dinosaur Jr.'s review of the rock and roll action flick directed by and starring Lundgren, Command Performance; and Desmond's biggest solo review on the show yet, the Blu-ray release of Red Scorpion.

What do you get when you mix a less-than-sober tweet with two transatlantic replies? This four-hour episode! Today, Mike is joined by the Shake and Blake team of Ian Wilson and Dave Probert to discuss Warren Beatty's 1990 adaptation of Dick Tracy! And make sure to listen to the entire show, because there are four minutes of outtakes! (Notes: This episode was recorded months ago, so there is a rather dated reference to The Dark Knight Rises. Also, please pardon the Skype hiccups.) [ 4:02:50 || 116.8 MB ] To listen, click here: http://www.earth-2.net/theshow/episodes/e2ts_560.mp3

As you may be able to tell from the album artwork, things get weird as Kellen and Will continue to cover Ouran High School Host Club. "The Grade School Host is the Naughty Type!" shows that the third music room comes with a suspended steel cage, "Jungle Pool SOS!" has man-eating crocodiles roaming free at a leisure resort, "The Sun, the Sea, and the Host Club!" has multiple near-rape scenes, "A Challenge from Lobelia Girls' Academy!" has feminist Nazis (RE: the artwork), and "A Day in the Life of the Fujioka Family!" introduces Haruhi's father (trust me, this also falls under weird).

Even Mike, who is not a religious man, found something in one of the comics he reviewed today a little off-putting And those books are Archer & Armstrong #1, Michael Avon Oeming's The Victories #1, Planet of the Apes Annual #1, RASL #15, and The Rocketeer: Cargo of Doom #1.
