Take Me Home, I-Land Roads

Take Me Home, I-Land Roads

Hi there! This we'll be our last episode for a while. Andy and I decided to take a break until we come back for season 3. TTFN!

We're back to the I-Land (literally?) following Chase's adventures with Cowboy Warden and Nurse Ratched. Blue Crush still sucks. Bonnie and Clyde take a beach vacation. Evan postulates hillbilly cloning scientists, and Andy tries a new segment that makes Evan REALLY mad.

I-Land 2 (Electric Boogaloo)

We went back to The I-Land. And we're going back again? This is terrible. Evan crafts the perfect joke, but it only exists in his imagination. Andy improvises a much better sign-off, and Evan is honestly a little jealous. And introducing our new segment, "OK, Boomer." [Originally released November 2019]

Between: Less Than

Lord of the Flies meets The Stand in Between. Weirdly, Evan's the one who gets obsessed with details in this episode. A young boy stabs himself, but romance lives on. Andy goes deep on a cow murder, and eventually explains why he doesn't care about spoilers. There's also a cocker spaniel puppy. Shit. is. WILD.

Welcome to The I-Land

Welcome to The I-Land

Back in 2019 (we were so innocent then!), Badwatch had a patreon. For it's brief existence, we watched The I-Land, perhaps one of our favorite Badwatches ever. For our 2020 reboot we decided to release these episodes once a month in the regular feed, eventually covering the entire series. None of us will ever be the same.

You know "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys? The I-Land is like that, and somehow much worse than anything Mike Love could come up with. You're welcome.

Religious Charlie's Angels

Considering how many things went wrong in this episode, it's a fitting end to 2020. We watched Warrior Nun, the most boring show ever made about badass, demon-fighting nuns. In addition to thinking this would be our first episode of the new year (it's not), the boys somehow watched different episodes (it's Andy's fault), so you get two recaps in one! Evan busts out his Stefon impression. Andy has a wild internal monologue. Mistakes were made!
