The Irrational - Cheating Life

The hit-and-run death of a former scientist turned fitness guru he once knew leads Alec Mercer (Jesse L. Martin) to look into discovering the man’s death was no accident (although it will take longer than the audience to come to the logical conclusion of what really happened). The show continues to play down the roles of Phoebe (Molly Kunz) and Owen (Arash DeMaxi), with Kylie (Travina Springer) playing shotgun for her brother rather than one of his assistants, while also limiting Alec’s interactions with the FBI to a single scene (sadly they still get their own subplots which continues to spin their wheels).

Spider-Man - Night of the Lizard

Spidey Sunday takes us back to the 90s and Spider-Man‘s (Christopher Daniel Barnes) first run-in with the Lizard (Joseph Campanella). Forgoing any unnecessary origin story, the 90s Spider-Man series kicked off with Spidey already firmly established as a hero in New York. The episode plays things close to the vest using the comic blueprint for the characters to build from without making too many obvious changes. Many of the classic character beats can already be found here with Peter always struggling to make ends meet earning what he can by selling photos to J. Jonah Jameson (Edward Asner) and The Daily Bugle, balancing his life as both Peter and Spider-Man, and always feeling guilty about not being able to do more for Aunt May (Linda Gary).
