Episode #7
"Send us a Text!" A Pokemon movie finally got me to stop nitpicking and just enjoy the ride. I’m Nathan, and after working through the rougher entries on my Season 6 watch list, Pokemon: Zoroark Master of Illusions...
Episode #6
"Send us a Text!" A Pokemon that talks the entire time, opens portals, and mostly wins by summoning other Pokemon to do the fighting? That single idea sets the tone for a review that turns into a full-on vent session...
Episode #5
"Send us a Text!" A Pokemon movie can have a legendary setting, a mythical Pokemon, and a big villain chase, then still feel like it’s spinning its wheels. That’s the vibe I wrestle with as I continue my Pokemon journey...
Episode #4
"Send us a Text!" Four movies in one sitting should feel like a dare, but that’s exactly what makes this Cinema Sunday so much fun. We jump from a heartfelt Toy Story 5 review with a very special guest (my daughter...
Episode #3
"Send us a Text!" Mewtwo plus Genesect should be a slam dunk: two human-made Pokemon, a city under siege, and a finale packed with legendary-level destruction. But sometimes a movie can do everything “big” and still...
Episode #2
"Send us a Text!" Two Pokemon movies kicked off my worst-to-best ranking season, and they immediately raised a question I didn’t expect to be so decisive: when a Pokemon can talk for most of the movie, does it deepen...
Episode #1
"Send us a Text!" Summer releases are here, and we’re coming in hot for the season six premiere of The Couch Critics. I’m joined by returning guest Lexi and first-timer JP, and the three of us waste absolutely no time...
Episode #114
"Send us a Text!" A season finale shouldn’t feel like homework, so we end our Christmas movie journey with a true mixed bag and some honest ratings. After nearly 100 “Christmas” movies, I’m down to the final stretch and...
Episode #113
"Send us a Text!" The fastest way to start an argument at Christmas is to ask one question: what counts as a Christmas movie? Nathan brings Mitch on the mic, and between two theatre teachers crawling toward the end of...
Episode #112
"Send us a Text!" A movie can feel like hot cocoa and still have nothing to do with Christmas, and that’s the line I’m testing today. I’m flying solo as I review two comfort-heavy favorites from very different corners...
Episode #111
"Send us a Text!" I fell asleep during a Christmas cartoon and I’m not even sorry. Santa’s Apprentice has the ingredients for a sweet holiday story, but the pacing drags, the premise feels oddly put together, and the...
Episode #110
"Send us a Text!" Five movies in one run sounds like a terrible idea until you’re hanging out with friends who will actually argue about what makes a holiday film work. We’re back on Couch Critics with Nathan, Lexi, and...
Episode #109
"Send us a Text!" If your holiday watch list is packed with movies that barely mention Christmas, we’re right there with you and we’re ready to argue about it. Nathan is joined by Lexi and Mitch to judge two romantic...
Episode #108
"Send us a Text!" Ever notice how a “holiday classic” can feel like a warm blanket to one person and a paper-thin ritual to another? We put that tension to the test with a brisk takedown of Trolls Holiday and a lively...
Episode #107
"Send us a Text!" A stop‑motion staple, a Hallmark sleeper, and a slasher juggernaut walk into our Sunday lineup—and only one walks out with our hearts. We kick off with The Little Drummer Boy and ask why a canonized...
Episode #106
"Send us a Text!" In this festive episode, Lexie and Nathan dive into four very different holiday films: The Christmas Chronicles , Noel , Silent Night , and The Great Rupert — and let’s just say… not all Christmas...
Episode #105
"Send us a Text!" This week on the show we’re diving into two very different 90s classics: a film that restored our Christmas cheer and one that… frankly, left us scratching our heads. First up is The Santa Clause — a...
Episode #104
"Send us a Text!" In this episode, we take a fun double-feature dive into Shazam! and Shrek the Halls —two very different holiday-adjacent watches with very different outcomes. We look back at Shazam! as a superhero...
Episode #103
"Send us a Text!" Let’s be honest. This episode is less about One Night in the Tropics and Buck Privates… and much more about how Abbott & Costello became Abbott & Costello. Yes, we talk about the movies. But mostly, we...
Episode #102
"Send us a Text!" This week on the podcast, we took a sleigh ride through two very different Christmas stories. One classic, one modern, both built around the big red suit. We’ll be honest. Lexie and I struggled with...
