  • TV Time Machine # 23 – September 2000 – Malcolm in the Middle, Marion and Geoff, Meet Ricky Gervais, Faking It, Black Books
    Sep 21 2025

    Luke and Matt are back aboard their TV Time Machine, heading to September 2000. FOX has a new anarchic family sitcom in Malcolm in the Middle, which is hugely significant as it gives us Bryan Cranston. Rob Brydon makes his debut as a taxi driver recalling the breakup of his marriage in the truly superb short-form comedy Marion & Geoff.

    On Channel 4, a fresh-faced comic, Ricky Gervais, gets his own chat show, Meet Ricky Gervais which feels like an awkward hybrid between So Graham Norton and The Larry Sanders Show which sadly doesn't work.

    Also on Channel 4, Dylan Moran's cult comedy Black Books, which brought together Bill Bailey and Tamsin Grieg as a strange found family. Lastly, Channel 4 also has Faking it, which takes a Yorkshire women and attempts to turn into a posh girl.

    Sep 9 2025

    Matt and Dawn are joined by CustardTV Editor Luke to review four shows available this week. Firstly, Mare of Easttown creator Brad Ingelsby has a new show in the brilliantly tense and human Task available weekly on NOW, Sky and HBO. Next, there's another murder in the building so Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez are back recording their podcast for the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building on Dinsey+ and Hulu. Next, the creative team behind the US Office is back with an official spin-off in The Paper. But does it stand up?

    Finally, the trio watch what might be the first sketch shows we've covered in 5 years. Channel 4 are putting a lot behind, Mitchell and Webb aren't Helping but can it revive a long lost type of television?

    Lastly, Dawn quizzes the boys on British sketch shows. How many could you name?

  • # 492 - I Fought the Law, The Guest, Hostage, Educating Yorkshire
    Sep 3 2025

    TV is finally back in a normal rhythm, and that means the podcast is back! Matt and Dawn are joined by Dawn's podcast co-host Lucy from The Shipyard to review four shows available this week.

    It's September, and it's ITV, so by law, Sheridan Smith must portray a real person in a true crime drama. Sticking to tradition, she stars as Anne Ming, in, I Fought the Law, the story of a mother's fight for justice when her daughter's body is found in her own home.

    Next, the BBC has a crazy thriller inspired by The Hand That Rock The Cradle and others of that ilk. Eve Myles and the brilliant Gabrielle Creevy star in in The Guest.

    Already on Netflix, Surrane Jones stars in a crazy pollicital thriller that sees her husband kidnapped and become a 'Hostage'

    Lastly, and perhaps the most important show of the week, Channel 4's fixed-rig cameras return to Thornhill Academy for a second series of the probably brilliant Educating Yorkshire, over 10 years since the first.

    Then, Dawn and Lucy test their knowledge of TV's biggest slow burn relationships for our quiz.
