S08E10 Saved by the Bell

5/11/2024
Okay, so here’s the story: When I wake up in the morning, and the alarm gives out a warning, and I don’t think I’ll ever make it on time. By the time I grab my books, and I give myself a look, I’m at the corner just in time to see the bus fly by. It’s alright, ‘coz I’m saved by the bell. Here now is the story of how this high school show came to Saturday Morning. Who was Miss Bliss? Who started their career as a teen model? What degree does Mr. Belding have on his office wall? All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at SAVED BY THE BELL! Thanks for ‘tooning in.

S08E09 - The 100th! - The Get Along Gang

4/27/2024
Okay, so here’s the story: Take a dog and a cat and put them on TV. Hmmmm… That’s already been done. Add in a Mose. What’s next, a squirrel? Get original TV. I don’t know, let’s mix in a lamb and a porcupine and call it good. And tell them to all get along despite what their natural instincts tell us. That’s what I would do if I were on the same room as “The Pound Puppies”. And I friggin’ hate those death row hounds. Anyways… Here now is the story of how this anthropomorphic show came to Saturday Morning. Where did this good manner’s teaching show come from? How many tries did it take to get it right? What killed this show? All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at THE GET ALONG GANG! Not only that, but The Saturday Morning Podcast is joined by Dustin from CHERRY BOMBS: THE UNDERAPPRECIATED MOVIES PODCAST. Instead of the usual nonsense, Dustin and I bring you a whole new level of nonsense with a commentary on the first episode of THE GET ALONG GANG from DIC Animation. If you're not familiar with Dustin or his terrific show CHERRY BOMBS, it's a look at those movies from the 80s and 90s that didn't do so well at the box office. But they made their way into our hearts where Dustin and Nik defend their value, and might change your mind about them. Find CHERRY BOMBS: THE UNDERAPPRECIATED MOVIES PODCAST on Apple Podcast, or wherever you like to find them. Thanks for ‘tooning in.

What is the proper name for that straight piece that strikes the triangle? Which member of the cast was a Hayter? For being such a long episode, why does it feel so Short?

S08E07 Popeye and Son

3/30/2024
Okay, so here’s the story: A disproportionate man and his ultra-thin girlfriend get married and eventually have a son. That’s it, that’s the story. No more, no less. Well, I guess there’s also the mortal enemy who also had a son, and still holds a grudge. And then there’s all the no-fighting that Saturday Morning can handle. Here now is the story of how the strongest show on Earth came to Saturday Morning. Who was Harold Hamgravy? Just where did this show originate? Spinach? Why did it have to be spinach? All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at POPEYE AND SON! Thanks for ‘tooning in.
