The Couch Potatoes

This week, Jeff's got a review of Spider-Man Brand New Day - short version... LOVED IT. Also, three new movies out this week including a fascinating looking romantic comedy that unfortunately... is getting bad reviews. Ted Lasso is back for a 4th season on Apple TV+! Jeff went to see The Odyssey again, and we head back into the EMMERICHVERSE! - Brett

This week we'll tee up what could be the biggest movie of 2026 - Spider-Man Brand New Day, although it's not the only movie out this week (the other one looks CRAZY). Jeff also has a review of a WWII documentary series hosted by Tom Hanks... he says it might be his favourite series of the year! And I watched Masters of the Universe and Mortal Kombat II, both of them came out on streaming recently, and I really enjoyed them! - Brett

Jeff's got a review of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey; The first trailer has arrived for Avengers Doomsday; Jeff checked out a unique episode of The Simpsons; Interesting but quiet week at the movies; Why is Masters of the Universe ALREADY out on streaming??? And I can't seem to stay awake this week to watch a movie - Brett

Hello there! This week we'll tee up Christopher Nolan's new movie The Odyssey, which is getting terrific reviews. We'll also tee up the new Will Ferrell golf comedy on Netflix, The Hawk, which is TERRIBLE. I watched the original Moana and its 2024 sequel in the wake of the live action remake's box office failure. We offer our thoughts on season 2 of X-Men 97, and Jeff went to see Supergirl. Sam Neill has died at 78. And in honour of the recent 4th of July, I decided to revisit the 1996 classic Independence Day, and the not-so-classic from 2016, Independence Day Resurgence. I didn't hate it this time! - Brett

The Emmy nominations are out so we go through the ones we've seen, or should we say the ones we HAVEN'T seen?? Because... there are many. We'll also look at what's new at the movies including The Rock, some demons, a bizarro dinner party, and chasing Jon Hamm! Jeff's got a review for a movie that's one of his favourites of the year so far, I've got a review of one of my favourites. AND, Jeff shares some exciting news on the new HEAT project, and I'll take a look at season 3 of the excellent sci-fi series Silo. - Brett
