In this very special episode: Because the Idiots are welcoming of all faiths, the Idiot Easter recording begins with Kevin asking some major theological questions. Yet somehow, the episode derails into discussions about shower sex. Still, the Idiots manage to talk about what they thought rocked and sucked in the past two weeks, with Kevin bringing out some claws for a handful to shows and Merrill sounding like the nice guy. After some TV news and a somber nod to Elisabeth Sladen, the Idiots move on to some sound offs, DVD picks and Idiot Recommendations.

In this very special episode: Just because Kevin is recovering from a bad case of strep throat doesn’t mean he can’t be an Idiot. Together with Merrill, they talk about all things orange, bacterial infections, what constitutes pornography on television and all there was that sucked and rocked on the boob tube these past few weeks. Merrill sounds off about awkward TV theme song transitions, and Kevin looks back a the UK version of The Office. Then it’s a batch of TV-on-DVD and Idiot Recommendations before the Idiots crawl away in shame for yet another couple weeks.

In this very special episode: The Idiot Boxers give their take on various season finales and prepare for others, in particular the LOST finale, which wasn’t aired at the time of recording. They also bitch about V at least three times in the show. They cover TV schedules for the fall, then Sound-Off about campaigns to save shows and homages to musicals before moving on to some TV-on-DVD and giving their Idiot Recommendations.

In this very special episode: The Idiot Boxers dance a jig and talk about how awesome some of the shows are looking for may sweeps, like 24, FlashForward and Lost. They also bemoan the success of the wretchedly dreadful V before rattling off some TV renewal news. During the Sound-Off, Merrill and Kevin look at shows in trouble and the evolution of The Office before reviewing some TV-on-DVD and handing out some Idiot Recommendations.

In this very special episode: The Idiot Boxers are ramping up for May sweeps with anticipation of finales in 24 and Lost. They also invite a special guest into the Magical Studio in the Sky – the Prophet Muhammed, who wears a bear costume but doesn’t speak for fear of retribution. This leads Kevin and Merrill to talk about some more controversial topics, including the most recent South Park episodes, Conan’s move to TBS and an Idiot Boxer rage-out at Ugly Betty… and one final topic so controversial that the network demanded censorship!

In this very special episode: In catch-up mode, the Idiot Boxers cover the slate of TV from the beloved 24 (RIP… sniff, sniff) to what show ABC wants to use as a replacement for LOST. They buzz about a Star Wars sit com and the loss of Merrill’s favorite new show Sons of Tucson. Kevin rants about Grey’s Anatomy and both Idiots lay into reality TV.

In this very special episode: Couch potatoes Kevin Carr and Merrill meet up again in the Magical Studio in the Sky to bring you a rapid-fire review of the many TV shows on the internet. Merrill laments the cancellation of 24 while Kevin bursts his bubble by suggesting (or rather, predicting) that the planned feature film will be shot in 3D. This leads into an Idiot Sound-Off about TV-to-movie adaptations. And Merrill continues to not comprehend the lengthy run of Doctor Who.
