Onesies21.6 Van (Blink Twice), or: Three's a Crowd (1984) 11+12 of 22Well, dear listeners, a very unexpected day has arrived. Our intrepid hosts, Emily and Andrew, have been very obviously kidnapped and replaced by pod people who report laughing at least once. "Andrew" even says nice things about John Ritter's acting. "Emily" thinks Robert Mandan has a good physical comedy beat. What other fantastic statements do these "hosts" make!?! Listen and find out! If you dare....But, seriously, it's very chill and fun vibes after last episode's hellscape. Promise.

Onesies21.5 A Comedy Podcast (Good Luck), or: Three's a Crowd (1984) 9+10 of 22Andrew and Emily would like to welcome you to their comedy podcast, in which they discuss mostly bad television shows. However, for this very special episode--thanks to Emmy award winner David Mirkin and the cast and crew of THREE'S A CROWD--they get to start with a trigger warning and get into a sociological examination of popular television as it represents and instructs its conextual culture. Thrilling stuff, y'all, thrilling, uplifting, not at all often horrible stuff. But no slander, Emily and Andrew are now both professionals!

Onesies21.2 What's a Bechdel? (Whee, Ageism, Whee), or: Three's a Crowd (1984) 3+4 of 22Thanks to how THREE'S A CROWD handles guest star Jessica Walter, Emily and Andrew get to talk about some of their favorite subjects--ageism in relation to female actors in Hollywood, women not talking to women in media--amidst their discussion of subplotless plotting, actually laughing, good physical comedy, and Emily refusing to wait for a slip in the boxers.

Onesies20.4 Could It Be Worse (Thirty-two percent), or: High Society (1995) 4 of 13Emily and Andrew discover HIGH SOCIETY can get worse, even as it gets to a plot point Emily's been waiting for since the pilot. Listen as our hosts can't help but give good notes, and discover they don't agree about bad fashion and its place on American television.

Onesies#19.6 Absolutely Marvellous (No Chance), or: Ms. Marvel (2022) 6 of 6Emily and Andrew reach the final episode with some callbacks, remembering the breakdown the episode after last week, lots of positivity, and then some negativity. Not about this show but about some plans for our next season, but then Emily reveals an even more amazing selection. Tune in and find out!
2025-09-0929 min
Onesies#19.5 You Had to Be There (Off Our Game), or: Ms. Marvel (2022) 5 of 6As they try to catch up with Kamala in 1947 India, Emily and Andrew find themselves in a multiverse where ONESIES episodes are incredibly short. (There's a connected but detached prologue flashback and like two scenes after it... three. It's such a quick episode). Tune in and get ready for next week's season finale and Emily's announcement of the new amazing!
2025-09-0214 min
Onesies#19.1 The Stench of Competence (What Are We Watching), or: Ms. Marvel (2022) 1 of 6Emily and Andrew are off to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, albeit with some confusion about what exactly that setting will entail. Listen as they discuss young adult targeted ficton, competent--and, dare we say it--engaging storytelling, and... good acting? What are they in for?!? (Specifically Emily, who unfortunately finds herself in the fields of mansplaining). Tune in and find out!
2025-08-0356 min
Onesies17.11 An Oscar For Just One Of You (Evans v Travers), or: Raising Dad (2001) 21&22 of 22Ever the consumate professionals, Emily and Andrew finish RAISING DAD even though Andy Kindler is nowhere to be found. And Grandpa's kind of a dip again. And there's a whole "let's get it on" juxtaposing with Saget and Kat Dennings (not together, this was WB not HBO). But it's a weird, confused finish.ALSO! We're on hiatus for a couple weeks but Emily's got us post-modern (ish) next season!
2025-05-2748 min
Onesies17.8: Disappointing Men (Honkytonk Women), or: Raising Dad (2001) 15&16 of 22Emily and Andrew contend with the unexpected... what happens when Grandpa (Jerry Adler) disappoints? Nothing good. Luckily, the second episode they discuss has... well, more disappointing men but at least it's the usual disappointing man on the program. Plus, wild tangents unless Emily cut them?
2025-05-0642 min
Onesies17.4 Bad Dad Mad (Platitudes), or: Raising Dad (2001) 7 & 8 of 22Andrew has lots of feelings about this episode, specifically Robert Saget as that guy in your MFA personified (but, like, earlier eighties Reagan MFA bro, yuck), and Emily is nice enough to amuse some rants. They also get to talk about what continues to be good, and what continues to confuse. Andrew also broaches a cursed subject with Emily.
2025-04-071h 14
Onesies17.1 Saved by the Paget (Marvelous Comic Timing), or: Raising Dad (2001) 1&2 of 22Emily and Andrew hop in the family... sedan? We don't see the cars, really. But they're heading back to high school, this time with DAD (Bob Saget) along every day because he's the coolest teacher in school. Tune in as Emily has to remind Andrew to be nice, Andrew has to remind Emily DAD does not know how to act, and both of them delight in an unexpected Paget Brewster appearance!
2025-03-181h 18
Onesies16.3 A No Win Scenario (January November), or: Quark (1977) 3 of 8Emily and Andrew confront... THE NAKED TIME! Wait, no, Emily won't get that reference. Perhaps they've found their KOBAYSHI MARU! Wait, no, she won't get that one either. Well, I guess you'll just have to listen as they discuss Richard Benjamin... make-up actor, as well as how much an hour slot helps with supporting cast members.
2025-02-1037 min
Onesies15.7 Double-Length Season Finale (Did Anyone Watch), or: Duck Patrol (1998) 7 of 7Emily and Andrew dock for the very last time with Prof, Darwyn, Simon, Theodore, and all the rest of the gang. There's a lot of (talking about) action (and talking about talking about action from our intrepid hosts), and not much else. There's a lot of tangents, both because Emily and Andrew aren't interested in talking about the show, and because they're setting up for a bit. Or they're not. No one's quite sure.
2025-01-181h 01
Onesies15.3 Pass the Beer (Kit or Not Kit), or: Duck Patrol (1998) 3 of 7The intrepid lads and lady of DUCK PATROL find themselves in hot water for not cracking enough skulls. Emily and Andrew find themselves bored watching as they figure out how to make it appear they're getting the job done. Sort of. This episode does not turn Emily around on the show.
2024-12-2330 min
Onesies12.6 Insert Snowglobe Here (My Little Prince), or: Crashing (2016), 6 of 6What's this, another season without a bad episode? How ever will Emily and Andrew recover? Stay tuned to the end of this episode to find out. You don't just get to hear about next season, you also get to hear all about CRASHING's finale, which Emily knew about already because she watched ahead. Listen as they hosts try to remember numerous details, track various scenes, and keep spoilers until the last possible moment.
2024-05-2741 min
Onesies12.5 How's the Curry? (Damn It, Lulu), or: Crashing (2016), 5 of 6Emily and Andrew reach the penultimate CRASHING and discuss how the show starts wrapping things up, and the chances PWB takes with the audience's stomachs to get there. They also remain bullish about their ships on the show. At least, Andrew does; Emily watched ahead. Le sigh.
2024-05-2024 min
Onesies11.12 More Disagreement (So Long, Farewell), or: When Things Were Rotten (1975), 13 of 13Once again exhibiting their herculean patience, Emily and Andrew reach the edge of Sherwood and the end of WHEN THINGS WERE ROTTEN. Listen as they discuss the pleasing oblivion of utterly middling television, seventies sexism, racism, and... probably other things. Plus, Emily reveals next season's series!
2024-04-1424 min
Onesies10.4 Stick It In My Armpit (Cheese On Cheese), or: Fishing With John (1992), 4 of 6Emily and Andrew head to the frozen wastelands of Maine, where they join John Lurie and Willem Dafoe on their very manly quest for fish, which taunt them from below the frozen lake. It's Emily's favorite FWJ and the show's firing on all cylinders, so everyone has a great time. At least those who aren't ice fishing.
2024-01-1534 min
Onesies10x3 - Matt Dillon! (We Loved You in Good Will Hunting), or: Fishing with John (1992), 3 of 6Emily, Andrew, John, and Matt (Dillon) head to scenic Costa Rica where John and Matt maybe duked it out with gringo banditos and machismo-fueled fisherman, powered with nothing but the Fish Dance to ensure a half hour of great television. The Fish Dance is that powerful. Plus, as the narration informs us all, it's probably the best episode anyway. Tune in as Emily and Andrew once again wonder why they ever watched bad shows instead of delightful ones.

OnesiesNOVEMBER BREAKIn the world of Onesies, a pause comes to light,
Emily sends word, a break in their flight.
Schedules entwined, not syncing just right,
One host watched the show, the other missed the sight.
And there's Emily, post-booster, in a quiet repose,
Recovering gently, as the downtime she chose.
Yet, fear not for the gap, it's brief, they propose,
For next week they return, as their commitment shows.
They'll dive into "Going to Extremes," episode eleven,
2023-11-1200 min
Onesies8x4 - Metaphysical Goats (Let's Get Physical)In an unexpected twist, Emily and Andrew diverge on the episode--Andrew thinks it's the best GOING TO EXTREMES so far, Emily's not so sure. But then Andrew's basing it on the romance between Colin and Kim being a real thing and not some weird, bad nineties thing. Also Joanna Going is bad. And awkwardly hostile to Erika Alexander, who's good. But at least there's no teacher-student sexual predation?
2023-09-111h 13
Onesies8x2 - Wilfred Brimley (F*ck Daddy), or: Going to Extremes (1992), 2 of 17The title says it all.
As if.
Emily and Andrew once again descend into GOING TO EXTREMES and find the show's "hold my beer" approach to being problematic... well, problematic. Plus, Wilford Brimley does not actually guest star, so you'll have to tune in to find out the reference. And then never forget it. Barf.
2023-08-281h 05
Onesies8x1 - I Will Be Your White Savior (M-O-N), or: Going to Extremes (1992), 1 of 17Emily and Andrew are GOING TO EXTREMES, whether they like it or not. Listen as they head down to the Carribean (probably filmed on location in Jamaica) for another Pre-Disney ABC show, complete with butts, and so many problematic white boys. But at least it's not incompetent.
2023-08-211h 18
Onesies7x10 - Best of Luck on Future Projects (Not), or: Joe's Life (1993), 10 of 10Emily and Andrew have weathered the malestrom and survived, reaching JOE'S finest half-hour... when the show seemed to consider a refocus for the back nine. Or maybe it's just coincidentally the best of the worst. Listen as they say some regretful, but honest, things. And find out what's coming next season on ONESIES!
2023-08-1349 min
Onesies7x9 - Do Not Talk to Teenagers in Bathrooms (Seriously)Emily and Andrew have now weathered 90% of the extant JOE'S LIFE episodes and they've got thoughts. And tangents. Buckle up and buckle in for a lot of talking about bad sitcoms, loathsome characterization, toxic masculinity, and James Marsden. Also mullets.
2023-08-061h 15
Onesies7x8 - Who's Acting (Geo. Coe)Ol' Jack Scratch has got out his ice skates because Emily and Andrew find themselves complimenting... JOE'S LIFE? Well, specifically and singularly special guest star George Coe, who sells it. The episode's still a mess, but there's good acting. It's been so long since Emily and Andrew have seen good acting from anyone but Mimi Kennedy and then only occasionally because the show doesn't do right by her at all. Definitely not here. Anyway. Who knew our intrepid hosts could ever be so bullish?
2023-07-311h 08
Onesies7x7 - Sweet Smelling (Garbage), or: Joe's Life (1993), 7 of 10Despite JOE'S LIFE still being a miserable stink pile, Emily and Andrew manage to stay more on course--though most of the episode might be spent getting through the cold open--as they discuss toxic masculinity and pointed misanthropy. Tune in for all the fun (of discussing early nineties popular media).
2023-07-2450 min
Onesies7x6 - Mimi Kennedy is Funny (The Rest is So Bad), or: Joe's Life, 6 of 10It's another extra long episode full of tangly tangents, intentional and not, as Emily and Andrew head once more into the fiery hellscape of 1993 known as... JOE'S LIFE. Listen as they talk about better media. Listen as they compliment Mimi Kennedy. Listen as they go beyond the looking glass through multiple dimensions of misogyny. And as they gaze upon the horror, so too the horror gazes upon them. Beware.
2023-07-171h 24
Onesies7x5 - My Good Lug Wrench (Pull The Plug), or: Joe's Life, 5 of 10Join Emily and Andrew as they refuse to let the creative misery and misogynist relic of JOE'S LIFE drag them down, so instead they go on a million tangents. Anything to keep themselves entertained...since Joe's Life fails at every attempt. It's ABC, after all.
2023-07-101h 11
Onesies7x4 - Girls' Cars (Mallrats), or: Joe's Life (1993), 4 of 10Emily and Andrew settle in for some primo early nineties life lessons about how women shop and men buy, which can't even muster mildly amusing sexism thanks to the lousy writing. But at least there's a good (very supporting) guest star?
2023-07-031h 03
OnesiesOnesies 7x3 - Whine Dad (Say it Naked), or: Joe's Life (1993), 3 of 10Emily and Andrew do manage find something they like about this episode--though it's just Mimi Kennedy, basically--while they wonder why the show couldn't be about the parents using protection to spare the world from JOE'S LIFE.
2023-06-2745 min
Onesies7x2 - Healthy Butter (Pencils), or: Joe's Life (1993), 2 of 10Emily and Andrew settle in for an early nineties PSA/pre-Disney ABC sitcom about how smoking is bad and it's probably your mom's fault. Definitely not dad's. Listen as they discuss rising about the material (okay, they don't talk about this one very much), okay Google searching, bad parenting, and toxic masculinity. It's the toxic masculinity season, actually. Though... aren't they all?
2023-06-1944 min
Onesies7x1 - Rat Tail (Karaté) - Joe's Life (1993) - 1 of 10Emily and Andrew celebrate Pride with a tangent-heavy first episode of the season as they find themselves distracted by actual good news of the world, but manage to bring it all together to discuss bad parenting (on purpose), toxic and fragile masculinity (couple oxymorons there), and much more.
2023-06-111h 23
Onesies6x6 - Red Enough (Glow) - Chessgame (1983), 6 of 6Emily and Andrew bid a fond farewell to CHESSGAME, despite the finale not being fully realizing the show's potential, and being able to make numerous comparisons to a particular Canadian production about a Carpathian count. But for CHESSGAME, they leave amused, confused, and delighted (by the fasion). They also announce next season's show, though Emily doesn't let Andrew spoil one of the major reasons they picked it. Or at least, the major reason he's excited for it.
2023-06-041h 04
Onesies6x5 - Blue Eyes (Svelte Hips), or: Chessgame (1983), 5 of 6In the latest in their series of learned observations, Emily and Andrew head to Oxford for the penultimate episode of CHESSGAME, where we learn they do appear to be doing the cuckold subplot, David (Terence Stamp) got a promotion even though his boss is woke, and much more. What Emily and Andrew don't do talk about is how they're almost done with the good TV show they've been watching and it's about to get hot and steamy once again.
2023-05-2836 min
OnesiesUnterpantzi! (Back On) - Chessgame, 4 of 6Emily and Andrew continue to battle their most formidable opponent--a show getting better as it goes along. Now technically halfway through CHESSGAME (which is somehow getting less problematic as it goes), they discuss confounding espionage, corrupt politicians, and old British drunkards.
2023-05-2252 min
Onesies6x3 - I'll Call You (Mustache) - Chessgame, 3 of 6Another week, another... good hour of television? Tune in and find out what Emily and Andrew thinking--other than Terence Stamp and Robin Sachs are super-sexy, of course, which is 24.3% of the show. But there's mystery--and espionage--and good television afoot.
2023-05-1551 min
Onesies6x2 - Don't Tease (The Czar) - Chessgame (1983) - 2 of 6Emily and Andrew once again find themselves trying to suss out good television and, even with the racism, sexism, and general bigotry, find it hard to complain too much about eighties anti-James Bond James Bond. They do have a lot to say about outfits, saucy British television, as well as MI-5 work ethic.
2023-05-071h 08
Onesies6x1 - Don't Google (No Heroes) - Chessgame (1983)No Dracula: The Series jokes, folks, because we've moved on! Finally! Emily and Andrew head back to 1983 Britain for some CHESSGAME, starring Terence Stamp (don't google him and brexit btw), some other people not to google, maybe one person you can google, and lots of talk about espionage, commercial breaks, and, sadly, commonplace bigotry. But it's a good show. We barely remember what those are.

Onesies5x21 - No Place to Be a Man - Dracula: The Series, 21 of 21Emily and Andrew celebrate the final episode of DRACULA: THE SERIES with... an admiration for the episode? Tune in to find out how bad they've got the Stockholm Syndrome, listen as they discuss continuity, scary bad guys, and unlocked castles. AND they announce next season's show!
2023-04-2443 min
Onesies5×20 - Rarebit Fiend - Dracula: The Series (1990), 20 of 21It's the penultimate episode of season five, which means Emily and Andrew are almost done with DRACULA: THE SERIES! For their coverage of the-second-to-last episode--a clip show--they do an audio commentary because the thought of watching it straight was way too daunting. Listen as they predict all the twists and turns, but do get to see Geordie Johnson get a lot better over time....

Onesies5x19 - Hot, and Steamy - Dracula: The Series (1990), 19 of 21Emily and Andrew find the Stockholm Syndrome has entirely set in, just when they're almost done, as they... enjoy?... appreciate?... savor?... the episode. There's some really bad stuff, obviously, but there's also Hot and Steamy Schnitzel and more good(!?!?!) Geordie Johnson Dracula? Dig on in, y'all.
2023-04-1047 min
Onesies5x18 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 18 of 21Now decidedly in DTS's "end game," Emily and Andrew discover the series does indeed improve... or at least finds its most successful tone. Listen as they discuss the lack of I LOVE LUCY references, bad CASABLANCA ones, Stephen King zingers, bad acting (of course), and much more.

The Emily Osmond ShowFrom school teacher to artist, designer and educator with Trish BurtonLeaving your 9 to 5 to pursue a creative dream full-time may sound a little out there.

Onesies5x17 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 17 of 21It's the episode Emily and Andrew really haven't been asking for, but knew was inevitable--the return of "Mr. Perfect" Geraint Wyn Davies. Listen as they discuss new lows in bad acting, why the graveyard guy from episode two can't return, episodes airing out of order, and the intellectual potential of dust mites.

Onesies5x16 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 16 of 21After reminding everyone there are only five more episodes of DRACULA (which requires Andrew to relearn counting), hosts Emily and Andrew dig in and start talking background extras, Luxembourg old folks homes, George Bernard Shaw, and much more.

Onesies5x15 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 15 of 21Emily and Andrew dig into the latest installment of DRACULA's multi-episode arc, which has promptly forgetten the first couple installments, but Emily and Andrew can't. The memories are seared in. Listen as they discuss--once again--adults as the romantic interests for fourteen year-olds, lots of plot, and... better direction?
2023-03-1247 min
Onesies5×14 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 14 of 21Emily and Andrew get the episode they'd been waiting for and immediately regret thinking the show could pull it off. Even if Max is less annoying than usual. The other actors more than make up for him. But at least it's not AS creepy as last episode. It's creepy, to be sure. But not AS creepy.
2023-03-0641 min
Onesies5×13 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 13 of 21Emily and Andrew are sad to discover Dracula can still surprise them, especially when it involves untrustworthy medical professionals, rare blood diseases, icky groomers, and, of course, "Name that Polka!"
2023-02-2650 min
Onesies5x12 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 12 of 21Emily and Andrew find themselves less than tickled with this episode, featuring the initially unwanted return of a guest star from before, only then they turn out to be so much better than anyone else. The saddest part if when our unflappable hosts realize they've got another 9 episodes.
2023-02-1939 min
Onesies5x11 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 11 of 21Let's do the time warp again! Or, at least Andrew's convinced these episodes aired out of order (the proof is in the poloraids)! Listen as Emily and Andrew discuss whether or not grown women creeping on teenagers is better or worse when it's not sapphic (but still male gaze-y), Uncle Gustav's terrible vampire hunting, what Canadians talk aboot, and Max's #$%@&ing fedora.
2023-02-1245 min
Onesies5x10 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 10 of 21After the episode impresses Emily and Andrew with the ability to pan the camera three whole times, they immediately get depressed and disgusted, both by the "rock and roll" subplot, but mostly the felonious male gaze groomer A plot.
2023-02-0547 min
Onesies5×9 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 9 of 21Emily and Andrew once again leave DRACULA unconvinced of the show's conceits, this time involving psychics, Uncle Gustav being a desired television guest, and Dracula's ability to consume Orville Redenbacher's (sadly in not in a lewd way). But they do like adorable lagomorphs.
2023-01-3048 min
Onesies5×8 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 8 of 21In another startling development... Emily and Andrew discover, under the right circumstances, the show can be downright charming and delightful. Albeit only when guest mom is Dracula's bride and ready to destroy the regular cast but still. Who knew? Join them for a spirited discussion of power suits, capitalist greed, and the smell of decaying flesh.

Onesies5x7 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 7 of 21In a surprise twist, Emily and Andrew find themselves unironically praising some of this episode.

Other than the obvious reasons.

Onesies5x4 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 4 of 21How can DRACULA disappoint?

Onesies5×3 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 3 of 21Emily and Andrew are delighted to discover DRACULA: THE SERIES isn't anywhere near done being amazing, what with energy bolts, starcrossed lover monologues, tai chi, and Geordi Johnson deciding he's not over-acting enough yet.
2022-12-1847 min
Onesies5×2 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 2 of 21It's another vampire genre-busting episode of DRACULA: THE SERIES and Emily and Andrew are thrilled to be along for the ride.

Onesies5x1 - Dracula: The Series (1990), 1 of 21Apparently in service to the Dark Lord of Boredom, Emily unleashes DRACULA: THE SERIES on Andrew and the 21st century. Listen as they discuss rap, hip hop, and some ska, how much vampires like poppy seeds, how big poppy seeds tend to be, creepy older men and teenage girls, horny business moms, bad special effects, and Luxembourgian architecture.

Onesies4x11 - What else is going on?Thanks to Coronavirus disease 2019 (and a cat with pillow foot), Andrew was unable to report for his POLICE SQUAD (IN COLOR) duty, and instead made Emily talk about her current media consumption.

Onesies4x10 - Police Squad, 4 of 6Emily and Andrew have entered the second half of POLICE SQUAD (in color) and discovered maybe these types of projects work better as ninety-minute movies. Though they are very impressed with the guy who's not back in the NAKED GUN.
2022-10-3038 min
Onesies4x9 - Police Squad, 3 of 6Emily and Andrew finally hit the first problematic POLICE SQUAD, albeit--thankfully--briefly, unless you want to talk about delightful (albeit exploited) primate actors, who also figure into this quite funny episode. The pod also required extra editing from Emily because of fire alarms; she saved you from the beeps, but not from Andrew's ad-libbing.

Onesies4×8 - Police Squad, 2 of 6Emily and Andrew head to Cleveland for the big fight! Or is it Cincinnati? Regardless, listen as they discuss the second episode of POLICE SQUAD, directed by Joe Dante and co-wrriten by Robert Wuhl, which has a lot less Leslie Nielsen showcases, but still works out.
