No more time for silliness! The Immortals have some important reviews on their docket including the beloved sci-fi classic Blade Runner and the beloved sci-fi classic LOST. Also an early album by Sinead O’Connor, absent food, a poppy song by The Cure and an underread story by Philip Pullman. But the biggest question of all is…will anybody get Austin a chair?
For those of you who are new to the show, welcome! This is a review show were five immortals review things! And this is the episode where they go back in time to the 80s and be extra silly. Also they still review the Best Picture winner Mrs. Miniver, the surprising album Happy Trails, eat some pea shoots, don’t give no lip to no child, debate culture in picture books and say McCloud a lot. Enjoy! And if you’re confused, don’t worry about it!
The Immortals have given up on their exploration of the Old Gods’ realm and resigned themselves to eternity, until an unexpected visitor upends their spot! But before that, they attend a rather droll The Firemen’s Ball, have Group Sex (not really, but who could resist the implication?), really struggle to enjoy and pronounce Telline de Camargue, savor some Wondrous Stories, talk about another rag-tag group of Britons in The Family from One End Street, and get reeeal seamy with Red Shoe Diaries.
The Immortals continue their exploration of the Old Gods’ realm, finding rooms that would be too ridiculous to believe if they didn’t ACTUALLY in REAL LIFE see them! And of course, they still find time to relay their lukewarm opinion of High Noon, their realization that maybe you Can’t Buy A Thrill, their love/hate relationship with vinegar and Cornichon, their “glass half full” attitude toward Tears of a Clown, their unwillingness to learn Spanish, and their increasing ennui with the beloved Gong Show. Next week promises to have some exciting developments in the Old Gods realm, but who knows?! We’ve been wrong before and we’ll do it again!
The Immortals are back! You would think that being so worldly, they would have the means to get good theatre seats but they usually end up with the Children of Paradise. Which is the movie they’re reviewing this week! Also they have some of the tasty Bitches Brew, ignore the hops, get entranced by some People Get Ready, talk about Snookie more than you would expect and say goodnight to John-Boy. All in one episode! Whoo!

The Immortals return and they don’t notice the connection between them losing their sanity as they venture the creepy settings of the old gods realm and their review of Young Frankenstein. They also review a punk album that really should have made their own cover of Puttin’ on the Ritz, Adam betrays the gods of vegetarianism by eating a sausage, Austin does his best metal impression and then Sarah tries to define what the hell Walking the Dinosaurs is. Also no matter when you listen to this episode, we swear Gene Hackman was alive when we recorded this. Enjoy!
Another ten episodes down, 931 to go! This week the Immortals continue to try to find Bethany in the Old God’s dimension and watch Sarah’s pick for The List: A Few Good Men. Then, they touch on super-beings in their review of Alien. They find that Young Gods are waaay better than Old Gods, and Life In A Northern Town isn’t so bad. Gargling with Jelly is literally and figuratively explored, and finally, Austin once again delivers a tour de force monologue when he discusses yet another obscure TV show that no one else watched,
It’s episode 69 (NICE) and the Immortals are still trapped in the old gods other realm. As they explore their surroundings, they make time to review On the Waterfront! It’s about a nice guy surrounded by shady figures. It’s what Adam feels all the time on this show. Also Leigh gets mad at Paul Simon again, Sarah makes a soup, Pedro gets things thrown at him, everyone overanalyzes Mog and Austin talks about the flaws of Jesus. We are such an accessible show!!!
Even though the portal that formed in the sword wound in Adam’s chest that they went through last week closed behind them and they’ve been trapped in a room without food in another dimension with no clue how to get out, The Immortals still have INTERNET! The movie this week is Being John Malkovich, which proves to be only a slightly weirder scenario than the one the Immortals currently find themselves in. Leigh hates another album that Austin and Adam like, while they all mourn the fact that they’ll never again talk about Weezer after this episode. The food and children’s book were unobtainable and unreadable, and Austin once again finds himself underwhelmed by a beloved British TV show. Will the Immortals ever escape this dimension? Will they ever do a normal show with no weird stuff? Will Malkovich Malkovich Malkovich Malkovich Malkovich Malkovich? Probably not!
I feel there’s something different about this episode. The audio sounds a bit different. Anywho, The Immortals celebrate International Women’s Day one day late with a look at Vagabond, a female centric character study from a French female director! Then they go right into a band where a woman is imprisoned. Then it’s time for some oil, night lights, keepers of graveyards and a very confusing talent show. Enjoy! Oh and some more weird stuff happens with the interdimensional intern.
