EP:13 - A Show About Nothing

In this episode of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about the 90s sitcom, Seinfeld.

Quite probably a show about nothing, I am legit unsure how to describe this show. I guess its the typical group of four friends getting into mildly comical situations, except Seinfeld does it better than Friends.

Umm, I’m not really sure what else to say. Seinfeld is a pretty solid show and I think is still reasonably relevant today, it’s fairly evergreen content and it’s just solid.

Also, Seinfeld does have a laugh track. I obviously don’t know what I’m saying.

If you can, give it a watch.

EP:12 - Uni Review 22

In this episode of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about this years Uni Review ‘Net Zero’

You most likely are asking yourself ‘what is the Uni Review’ The Uni Review is a theatre show that’s put on every year where I live. It stars mostly young and upcoming theatre actors.

It’s basically a political satire, comedy and musical show. The title of the show also has some sort of ‘pun’ in the name, for example a few years back the show was called ‘Make Tasmania Great Again’ and the 2019 show was titled ‘The Lyin’ King’

The show features, parody songs, some nudity and many laughs. I know that most of you listening are not local to me, but If you’re ever visiting my area around early May, id heavily suggest you go. You might not get the burns on Burnie, or the political puns, but you’ll get onboard with the parody songs!

5/5 Toilet Rolls.

EP:11 - True Crime

In this episode of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about Netflix series, Catching Killers and Real Detective.

True Crime podcasts are rather popular, so I decided to watch some True Crime shows on Netflix. One series being called Catching Killers and another called Real Detective.

These sort of shows are somewhat interesting, because why would you want to watch a show about brutal crimes? Well, for me it’s all about how the investigators get their ‘man’ and in some aspects its almost comical. One crime was basically solved by a google search, just give that a hot second to sink in…

Catching Killers and Real Detective, are basically formatted the same, the investigator/investigators tell us about the investigation, while we see that in a reenactment format. Pretty much the only difference between the two shows is that in Catching Killers, we hear from other stakeholders in the investigation. One episode for example, we hear from a local crime reporter and the local prosecutor.

I think if you’re someone who likes True Crime podcasts, True Crime docos will be your type of juice.

EP:10 - Australian Phar Lap?

In this episode of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about 2003 film, Seabiscuit.

Firstly is Seabiscuit, Americas Phar Lap? Quite possibly, much like Phar Lap, Seabiscuit was a hero for the common man during the great recession.

Now to the film, this is a rather ‘stock’ sports film, you have a down and out team, Seabiscuit and Red. You’ve got a ‘super coach’ that no one has really given a chance or rates very highly, in this case that’s Tom Smith, and finally we have the hopeful/enthusiastic owner, Charles Howard.

It’s also got the typical heart break, triumph, defeating of the villain then a final heroic comeback, plus some training montages!

Visually I think this looks rather good and the racing scenes are put together pretty well, so worth a look I think.

3.5/5 Toilet Rolls.

EP:09 - Miss Fine

On this edition of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about the pilot episode, of my favourite 90’s sitcom, The Nanny!

Yes, The Nanny, the show all about a woman working in a bridal shop in flushing queens, UNTIL her boyfriend kicked her out in one of those crushing scenes, what was she to do? Where was she to go? She was out on her fanny.

Luckily, the suave Mr Sheffield, had need for a sexy, sassy and generally spicy woman to be his ‘nanny’

And that’s pretty much that. Besides the set changing, not really much else does. It seems that they pretty much knew what the show was, and who the characters were right from the start.

If you’ve watched any episode of The Nanny, you know what to expect, sass, roasting and some chuckles.

I love The Nanny, it’s one of my favourite shows.

EP:08 - Not Bond

On this edition of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about the ‘Spy Sitcom’ Archer, briefly.

So, I had Archer pop up on Netflix, and I thought ‘I’ve heard of that show, I might watch it’ so I have. I’ve watched the first 3 seasons to this point, and overall I’ve been enjoying it.

It’s a typical spy scenario, good looking spy, hot babes and mildly comical situations that need to be overcome. Plus big sexual tension and references.

I’d suggest, if you’re not into the whole ‘sexual tension’ thing, don’t watch. But given episodes run only about 20 minutes, you can easily knock out a few if you just want a taster.

I completely forgot to give this a roll rating in the actual recording, I was honestly just making it all up, I had no notes! But, id give Archer a 3.5, solid and worth a look.

I also have no idea what was going on with my voice near the end..

EP:07 - Best Christmas Movie Ever!

On this edition of Luke Who’s Watching, I’ll be talking about, Lethal Weapon! A Christmas movie….

What a film, a pretty classic ‘leave your brain at the door’ type of thing. Possibly one of the original action/buddy cop films? I don’t know, it could be, but Dragnet did exist……

I had to knock down my ‘Roll score’ when the toilet bomb scene didn’t happen, that was mildly disappointing.

Let me cover off briefly what makes this a ‘Christmas movie’ firstly, there are carols being played in the opening scenes, there is a lot of Christmas paraphernalia and Riggs goes to the Murtaugh family's for Christmas dinner at the end, case closed on that id say!

EP:06 - Sports Edition

On this edition of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about some Sporting events!

Im not really sure what to write, so I guess a brief ‘rundown’ of each event.

The first event was the 2021 AFL Grand Final, that featured the Melbourne Demons, and the Western Bulldogs. Melbourne were the ‘Minor Premiers’ that basically means they finished top of the ladder, and the Bulldogs finished 5th. Melbourne were also after their first Premiership win since 1964, and the Bulldogs vying for their first flag since 2016, to spoil it for you, one of these two teams won.

Secondly, is the first edition of Paris-Roubaix Woman's Edition, Although the whole race wasn’t broadcast the 60ish km I watched was rather good, and the conditions made it rather spicy. The winner of the race, will go down in cycling history as being the first winner of Paris-Roubaix for women.

The third event I watched was the ‘blokes’ version of Paris-Roubaix, and if the woman's race was spicy, this was extra spicy. Typically the race is in the French spring, but due to the ‘Big C’ it was postponed, so as a result it was in the autumn/early winter. As a result that created some juice, and much like the ladies race, a rather enjoyable watch.

If you want to see any highlights of these events, I’ll slap some links below, hopefully nothing will have pesky ‘region restrictions’ AFL Grand Final Paris-Roubaix Women Paris-Roubaix Men

EP:05 - Avatar

On this edition of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about Avatar.

Firstly, I’ll say I went into this being not very interested at all, and by the end my feelings were basically the same. Technically this is a very good film, but I just didn’t buy into the story, as it’s all stuff I’ve seen before.

Im also at a complete loss as to how Jim is going to get a sequel out of this, but im not one of films ‘best’ directors/writers.

Basically to sum up, Avatar is long, boring and predictable. But it looks good….

EP:04 - Casino Royale (1967)

On this edition of Luke Who’s Watching, I’m going to talk about 1967’s Casino Royal.

This is a movie is wild, its suave, weird and racist, quite literally the full monty of what society has to offer. A lot seems to go on, without really much happening, but its a fun time. I’d ‘urge’ you to watch it if you have the opportunity, simply for the experience of it all!
