The Goldbergs

CROJAM95

I watched both last night.....wasn't expecting the Matt Ryan storyline, that was kinda cool

The Grunge theme was funny and cringe worthy at the same time

The Juggler

Any better than the one from last year?

Poncier

Marginally.
The Matt Ryan angle was interesting.

Kinda looking forward to the spinoff show, Schooled, tonight.

I liked it, good spinoff show.

did you like the previous spinoff with mostly the same characters? it was based more on the girl who was wearing the nirvana shirt

it was ok, I know it wasn't finished and just a "test pilot". Also wasn't expecting it when it aired. They touched it up pretty well.

Yeah i was surprised to see him there (forgot he went to that school also).

much better, IMO

igotid88

yea the first one was a pilot that they aired last year and it was good. It would have gotten better as it went along. It even tested higher than The Goldbergs pilot

The Juggler

I don’t know what you guys are talking about....”Schooled” sucks big time. I couldn’t take more than 10 minutes of it. 


Loved Goldbergs tonight though. The DuPont reference was awesome. Wonder how many people outside of the area or who didn’t see the movie got it. 

Poncier

Also loved coach Charles Barkley rejecting all the kids' shots.

Schooled isn't particularly funny.

Oh well, I dug it.

Goldbergs was pretty good with the running of the mile (although when we ran it, we didn't do it in a neighborhood) and Charles Barkley making a cameo was pretty funny.  and a Sixers/Barkley reference in there towards the end.

The Juggler

Yeah it’s only a mile. Run around the football field two and half times...

Poncier

Yeah, the neighborhood run for a mile was just so they could fit the Rosie Ruiz storyline in, realistically you just do 4 laps on the track.

I tried to get into "Schooled".

Ain't happenin'.

Won't get "Schooled" again.

Watching the Bohemian Rap City episode and when Adam is talking to the Toy guy I'm like I know who that is... WTH is that?!?

Then the punchline comes.

"You're a Sucklord."

That was NYC's very own bootleg toy maker The Super Sucklord, Sukadelic, lol!

That was cool.

Poncier

As soon as they mentioned the Kremps' cousin "Evan visiting from Boston" had a feeling it was an Evan Dando reference even though I didn't know about the real life connection.

was there any real life connection? He's from the Boston area, so don't think there was except that his band formed in the 80's. Still good episode though.

Apparently he really is cousin of Chad Kremp, and Goldberg had met him at some weddings etc.

And then used to see him play when he lived in NYC in the 90's a fair amount.

I liked tonight's episode with The Goldbergs computer game

Also Schooled was pretty decent with the Star Wars theme.

eeriepadave

Goldbergs and Schooled renewed for next season

eeriepadave

Season premiere tonight. Looking at the previews Christie Brinkley looks fantastic for her age.

The Juggler

Good episode. Was hoping a vacation episode of the Goldbergs would take place down the shore but I get it.

From last nights episode. Lainey wearing a Pearl Jam shirt

Wonder if it's the same shirt the guy wore on the pilot episode

Didn't realize "Schooled" got cancelled. Was wondering when we were gonna get new episodes.

Yea a couple good shows got canceled by ABC. So did Stumptown even though it was renewed. But then the pandemic hit and it was canceled. Might revive my canceled too early thread

I f’n loved Stumptoen.  Was gutted that they cancelled it due to the pandemic.  Thought it was just hitting its stride.
