  • Summary

  • Forced to become part man, part machine, all Zoom host, thanks to pandemic lockdown restrictions, Shannon called on his good friend and Whovian mentor, Stephen Winsor, for a long-distance chat. Stephen discusses shedding tears at the sight of a childhood hero once more wearing the Seventh Doctor's garb in the teaser trailer for the 'Sylvester McCoy Season 1' Blu Ray set. The duo compare and contrast the suggested retail prices for the 'Doctor Who' Blu Ray sets. They detail their contents and decide whether or not they are worth the 'brown notes' (that's $100 CAD, for those outside the Great White North).

    Shannon gives a brief review of the 2009-10 Big Finish Production's 'Cyberman' 2-series box set, and the duo discuss the design aesthetics of the original 'Mondasian' Cybermen and whether, just perhaps, it remains still the most creepy and effective version. Then the main event..from every film and TV appearance to comics and animated series, to even the squared circle (!), the 1987 SF classic 'Robocop' and the ups and down of the 'Robocop franchise' are discussed. Frank Miller takes a LOT of body-blows in this one!

    Join Stephen and Shannon as they get swallowed up by the repetitive 'Jaws' re-releases, discover what's connecting Jean Claude Van Damme with...Optimus Prime (wha..?), what happens when the Atlantic Satellite Network censors violent 80's action movies for mild-mannered Canadian audiences...and who can possibly beat Robocop AND his partner Sting...in a wrestling ring! YES...Robocop was a wrestler! 

    THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION.
