That's my Spider-Man! And Prince Eric.
@gimmickspod
A podcast about the high-concept, experimental, structure-breaking GIMMICK episodes of television, with deep dives into TV history! Hosted by @derekbgayle.bsky.social and @dmuma.bsky.social. Part of The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective β¨π³οΈβπ
That's my Spider-Man! And Prince Eric.
The short-lived show DAY BY DAY only had one famous episode -- a crossover with THE BRADY BUNCH -- and it's a postmodern and strangely prescient part of TV and movie history!
We go deep into this crossover and Bradymania of the 80s and 90s on our latest episode.

Before being cast as Greg Brady in The Brady Bunch Movie, Christopher Daniel Barnes was in a sitcom episode where he dreamed... he was in THE BRADY BUNCH!

It's so funny that you might know about this episode but not the absolutely bonkers premise of the sitcom DAY BY DAY it was featured on (the first aired sitcom that #JuliaLouisDreyfus appears in!). Was it a good premise? (No!)
A change in tides! Wes Craven set out to reflect the real world back to audiences in the 70's! We discuss Last House on the Left with @sharai.bsky.social in this podcast clip! Follow the links for the full #podcast ep!

Strap in! Falling With Style is talking about Pixarβs Hoppers, a zany and unpredictable sci-fi comedy that subverts typical Pixar expectations, might give kids nightmares (a good thing!), and has a moment that elicited a BIG theater audience reaction.

If I had a nickle for everytime I saw a Seventh Brady kid get inserted into continuity, I'd have two nickles which isn't much but it's weird it happened twice.

You've likely never heard of Day by Day, a short-lived sitcom that once had Christopher Daniel Barnes cross into The Brady Bunch reality... years before he's cast as Greg Brady in The Brady Bunch Movie!

PLEASE LET THIS HAPPEN!
PLEASE DO!

Did someone say Christopher Daniel Barnes????
There is a point in this where @dmuma.bsky.social lists off obscure short-lived 80s show after obscure short-lived 80s show and with each and every one of them @scifiexplosion.bsky.social has a bunch of trivia and a personal story about watching it, and I think that's beautiful
We talk the weird, tangled history of a sitcom no one remembers (DAY BY DAY's cast included Julia Louis-Dreyfus!) and the enduring legacy of THE BRADY BUNCH, a sitcom everyone remembers, from Bradymania of the 80s and 90s to the many gay icons of the Brady family.

As much as "The Zeppo" is a funny, satirical episode of Buffy, it also has a lot to say about expectations of masculinity and how it causes people to make bad decisions...even when they have a role model like Daddy Giles right in front of them.

Great. Now I'm going to have this tune stuck in my head all day... thanks, Jan
Here's a story...
that you'll hear tomorrow π
Walloping Websnappers #305 Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends Season 3, Episode 7 "The X-Men Adventure" Episode image features six X-Men in the Maze of Madness, a room full of surreal architecture and psychedelic backgrounds. The X-Men featured are Firestar, Cyclops, Sprite (Kitty Pryde), Iceman, Storm, and Thunderbird.
Firestarβs ex exacts revenge on the ex-X-Man and the X-Men! @manicorn.bsky.social guides us through this backdoor pilot for an X-Men cartoon that never was, featuring a cyborg who turns the X-Mansion into a deathtrap.
We're talking Amazing Friends! wallopingwebsnappers.wordpress.com/2026/03/03/3...
