It’s M.O.D.O.K. time on an all-new episode of The Superhero Show Show!

On an all-new episode of The Superhero Show Show, Cassie and the Boyz, along with Katelynn from the Unnatural 20’s, take a look back at the Hulu animated hit M.O.D.O.K.! Their main focus is on the eighth and ninth episodes, which do a great job of wrapping up the family storyline, and then the AIM storyline. The Taste Buds discuss which storyline was more successful, if the quality of the animation rises above its Robot Chicken feel, and whether or not they think the finale, which they will cover next week, will stick the landing. The amount of time they actually say “stick the landing” is kind of creepy. Be careful if you have a weak stomach.

This episode also features the return of the Shushie Awards, with the reveal of who won Best Sidekick of the Year! The amount of times they make jokes about they are each other’s sidekicks is kind of creepy. Be careful with this, too.

As always, the Friends also discuss every other comic book-based television show that came out this week, including episodes of LOKI,  LEGENDS OF TOMORROW, BATWOMAN, THE FLASH, LUCIFER, VAN HELSING, SWEET TOOTH, and SUPERMAN AND LOIS!

Finally, as if that wasn’t enough show, Ryan sits down with Brandy and Jess from the So is He Captain America? podcast! They discuss how they met, how they got the incredible idea for their podcast, and their never-ending journey to figure out which one is Captain America.
