Description

How did Netflix think it would get away with a stinker like V Wars in the age of peak TV? We ponder that question with returning guest Monty, and we investigate the ingredients in a C-minus Syfy show (which this basically is) and wonder whether the show has, well, enough vampires (spoiler: nope). We go Around The Dial with Servant, Mad About You 2019, Making It, Ex On The Beach, and Toast Of Londonbefore rebooting dark characters in sunny-genred shows for an Extra Credit. Monty went over the top (as it were) for his Blackadder series finale Canon submission. Non-fiction cheerleaders won, Baby Yoda lost (sort of), and we seconded a motion for Part 2 of a previous Game Time. Keep hacking -- it's a bloody great new Extra Hot Great.SHOW TOPICSV WarsATD: ServantATD: Mad About YouATD: Making ItATD: Ex On The BeachATD: Toast Of LondonExtra Credit: Shiny De-bootThe Canon: Blackadder S04.E06: GoodbyeeeWinner and Loser of the WeekGame Time: Second Second Most EpisodesSHOW NOTESIan Somerhalder is kind of a creeper?On Blackadder's final sceneOUR Dave on Dave And Jeb Aren't MeanThe series finale of Beverly Hills, 90210 on Again With ThisThe Blotter PresentsYes, Work Of Art actually existedMonty Ashley on TwitterPhoto: NetflixDISCUSSIONTalk about this episode on its dedicated page on ExtraHotGreat.comTweet at us @ExtraHotPodcast on TwitterWe are @ExtraHotGreat on InstagramSUPPORT EHG ON PATREONThe EHG gang have been recording this podcast for almost a decade now. In podcasting terms, that makes us positively Methuselahian. Since the start of EHG, our listeners have asked if we had a tip jar or donation system and we'd look at each other and say surely that is a joke, people don't pay other people to do podcasts. We'd email them back "Ha ha ha, good one, Chet" and go about our business. Now we are told this is a real thing that real nice people do. Value for value? In today's topsy turvy world? It's madness but that good kind of madness, like when you wake up a 3:15am and clean your house. Or something. In all seriousness, we are humbled by your continued prodding to get a Patreon page up for EHG and here it is! Extra Hot Great on Patreon For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
