The TV Dudes A Weekly TV Podcast Discussion

As we reach the year 2022, and many years of doing this podcast, we started to think about whether we were re-using titles, but we're quite sure we haven't used the title Fetterkenny before. That's right, it's time to discuss the 11th season of Letterkenny on Hulu, the Book of Boba Fett on Disney+, and, unrelated to our title, Netflix's Death to 2021!

This week, we bring you our heavily negotiated TV Dudes Top 13! The TV Dudes sometimes have very different tastes, but we managed to cobble together an agreement on the Best 13 TV shows of 2021, and we're going to lay them out for you this week, in our last show of the year!

29:50- TV Dudes Top 13

Is there technically still some new TV for 2021? Sure, The Expanse just started up, HBO Max has offered up more murder mystery but sad in Landscapers, Witcher Season 2 and It's Always Sunny Season 15 are both up and running. But... none of that grabbed our attention quite enough to make the cut for Best Of, so we're diving in to our Best of 2021 episodes!

This week, we're each going to offer up five contenders that didn't make the TV Dudes cut, and next week, we're going to present the Top 13 we've hammered out together.

This week, Les chats with actor Kevin Mambo. Mambo can currently be seen on the new Netflix drama, 'Hit & Run' as an NYPD detective with a wry sense of humor who has seen it all. Mambo had large roles on hit series such as 'Luke Cage' and 'High Maintenance' and he is a two-time Daytime Emmy winner from his leading role on the long-running soap opera 'Guiding Light'. We discuss all that, plus his stage and film work, and much more.

This week, Les chats with actor and musician Todd Almond. Todd recently toured the U.S. in his original musical 'Kansas City Choir Boy' starring alongside rock icon Courtney Love. His musical 'Girlfriend' – based on the Matthew Sweet album of the same title – is a perennial favorite for theater companies around the country. Todd also appears on HBOMax's new 'Gossip Girl' series, as well as on Broadway in the new musical 'Girl From The North Country'. This Christmas, he has an album of carefully chosen covers, holiday favorites, and originals called 'A Pony For Christmas' and we discuss recording it, song selection, Todd's incredible career, and much more.
