Sci-Fi Party Line #118 In Time, 2nd Annual Sci-Fi Turd Off, A Look at 2012






“The turds will be minimally turdage, not the ones that inflicted the full bowel of last year.”
-Carl (@robominister) on our Annual Sci-Fi Turd Off

“Every movie is not supposed to be Americanized and wrapped and chewed up and regurgitated and fed to you like a baby bird.”
-Cat (@fancyfembot) on Sucker Punch

“Aliens that use lassos bother me. When you got space ships using grappling hooks; that offends me… You can defy gravity, you get all the way here and you are going to rope people?”
-Carl (@robominister) on Cowboys & Aliens

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ SPOILER ALERT ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

It’s the end of the year and we have a two-hour show jam packed full of the best and worst science fiction TV shows and movies of the year. Today’s crew is Cat and Carl. We kick off the show with the barely promoted In Time. After that we give the rules for our Second Annual Sci-Fi Turd Off (@15:51). We do a brief review of Cowboys & Aliens (@23:38) prior to putting Cowboys & Aliens and Transformers: Dark of the Moon head to head in this year’s Turd Off (@42:25). We cool off by talking about our favorite sci-fi movies of the year (@1:04:19) but get agitated again by discussing the sci-fi TV turds of the year (@1:15:40). We couldn’t end the show without a mention of SyFy’s holiday specials for Eureka, Warehouse 13, and Haven (@1:32:40). Finally, we wrap up by discussing the movies that we are anticipating in 2012 (@1:36:08).

Thank you all for a wonderful year. It wouldn’t be fun without YOU, the listeners!

Sci-Fi Party Line #96 SGU Finale, Supernatural, Smallville Finale


Speaking of the Stargate: Universe finale:
“We are literally going to sleep is our finale. The entire crew is going to take a nap. End.”
-Carl (@robominister)

********** FOUR MORE EPISODES UNTIL OUR 100TH EPISODE! **********

We are back from Cat’s academically induced hiatus! Today Cat and Carl discuss voice mails from Steph (@stephbystereo) and Charles. We give them a hard time but they wouldn’t have it any other way. Voice mail topics are Battle Colon LA, SGU, Fringe and Wonder Woman. We give our obligatory dig at Haven for Darrell. We give a good bye to Elisabeth Sladen who played Doctor Who‘s Sarah Jane Smith and also starred in The Sarah Jane Adventures. After that, we discuss recent science fiction renewals and cancellations. We send Stargate: Universe on it’s final journey, discuss Supernatural and talk about Smallville‘s finale.

Sci-Fi Party Line #94 V, SGU, No Ordinary Family, Fringe, More Voicemail


WARNING: I edited episodes 93 – 95 in two hours because I had to go out of town for family reasons. They are slightly rougher than usual.

In today’s episode Cat and Carl talk about V, SGU, No Ordinary Family and Fringe. Be sure to listen to the end for some Carl outtakes and shenanigans.

Sci-Fi Party Line #88 Turd off: Skyline vs. Airbender; Farewell SGU

“The Skyline folks blew a patio deck and a one room apartment. M. Night blew the world.”
-Carl (@robotcast)

Earlier this month, we asked you to vote in a poll about which movie was worse: Skyline or The Last Airbender. In this episode, Cat (@fancyfembot) and Carl (@robotcast) gave painstaking comparison and extensive analysis of the two worst movies of the year. In fact, we went so far as break down why each movie into these categories:

  • Squandered FX
  • Acting ?
  • Turdage per dollar
  • Fury upon exit
  • Which sequel would offend the least?

It’s a display of nerdy OCD at it’s best. We also discuss the cancellation of Stargate: Universe.

“Robert Knepper needs a hug.”
-Cat (@fancyfembot)

Still congested and medicated Cat and Carl discuss the demise of Caprica and the death threat of Fringe‘s move to Friday night. At last, we have something positive to say about Stargate: Universe while also putting it on deathwatch.

Sci-Fi Party Line #81 SGU, Caprica, No Ordinary Family, Fringe





“They are redefining science fiction where it’s not about science or that space stuff, it’s really about the interpersonal relationships of the people involved… with wrestling.”
-Carl (@robotcast)

Carl joins me to discuss his adventures at DragonCon. He talks about costumes, lines, Ghostbuster population and meeting Pierre Bernard from Recliner of Rage.

We also discuss Stargate Universe, Caprica, No Ordinary Family and Fringe. No episode with Carl would be complete without a dig at The Event, a mention of Sad Hobo and Agent Jessup.

Here is the LONG line that Carl talked about. If I have to stand in that line, I’m never going to DragonCon. I couldn’t handle it.
