Gen V's Good Genes

Episode 479,   Oct 04, 2023, 09:00 AM

Nick Rheinwald-Jones returns to The Boys-verse with us, plus a Veronica Mars Canon entry and more Tube Tunes!

Amazon Prime takes us back to the Vought cinematic universe with Gen V, a The Boys spinoff of sorts about up-and-coming college "supes" -- and we're glad Nick Rheinwald-Jones could join us to talk about whether it's a TV campus worth visiting, plus the pleasures of thorough world-building, CGI peens, and putting the grodiest deaths out of frame. We went Around The Dial with Starstruck, Only Connect, and the first season of Feud, then headed out to Neptune, CA for Sarah's Canon presentation on the Veronica Mars pilot. Kevin James won, Linda Fairstein lost, and we all gathered around the non-regulation piano for another round of Tube Tunes in Game Time.
