On this week's episode of The Mid-Season Replacements, The Trophy Room series continues with a discussion of the 1987 genre-defying(?) Predator. From handshakes to hand grenades (and hand-operated alien technology!), Randy and Sean have a lot to say about the film - and its true genre - that inadvertently sparked a billion-dollar, decades-spanning sci-fi action franchise.

Discussed: Predator (1987) (duh)

Sometimes the stars align - this week, it's the Kyrie Irving trade happening as Randy and Sean sat down to record this week's episode. After digging into the details of the transaction and its impact on the league, they turn to this week's topic, the art of the recommendation. What makes a good recommendation, and how should you ask and receive them? As you can imagine, they've spent way too much time thinking about these things - particularly in the contexts of television and silent film - so there's a lot to discuss!

Discussed: the NBA trade deadline, Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans, German expressionism, the magic of the sitcom (and the network procedural)

With Quantum Leap, That 90's Show, and How I Met Your Father on Randy's brain this week, The Mid-Season Replacements sit down to talk about nostalgia, its place in culture, and how it affects us as human beings. If you're down for a long, existential discussion about something so intangibly malleable and personal as nostalgia, then you'll have a good time with this week's episode, trust me. Discussed: That 90's Show, Hot Tub Time Machine, the Star Wars sequel trilogy, 90's German power metal, Paul's Boutique, You Can Count on Me
