The Screen Companion

The Host's favorite show of all time, The Wire never had a bad episode. But what was the best season? It just so happens that both guys in this three part special agree that it's the season at the Docks. In the final episodes of Season Two, the cops close in on The Greek, Ziggy makes a big boo-boo, and Stringer's deceptions take their toll on the Barksdale Organization. Guest: Jon.

Who do you love more: Stallone or Schwarzenegger? In the '80s, movie-going audiences got the best of both, these action titans shooting and exploding their way through the bad guys. Rambo III and The Running Man (1987)—fine examples that we can use to luxuriate in classic muscle mayhem! Guests: Andrew & Pat.

The Host's favorite show of all time, The Wire never had a bad episode. But what was the best season? It just so happens that both guys in this three part special agree that it's the season at the Docks. In this middle section of Season Two, Omar kills it in court, Ziggy gets in over his head with Eastside gangsters, and someone in prison gets forced into a suicide. Guest: Jon.

What's the typical Final Girl in a horror movie? How capable should they be? How much should they react versus being proactive in the story? Tales From the Crypt Presents: Demon Knight and Warlock. Unlike a lot of damsels in distress hanging on by a thread and surviving sometimes on sheer luck, here are a couple examples of chicks fighting demons and taking a substantial role in preventing literal hell on Earth. Guest: Sarah.
