- Boring
I love flight of the conchords so had a listen to that pod episode . So boring and meandering. Sorry lads, what are you doing? Did you all watch the first and last, really? What a strange premise… Is this meant be funny? Irony of you saying you could not commit to watching the whole seasons when this was soooo long and vacuous

These Darn Millennials are Too Old!!!! They fail me on all my expectations! They haven’t seen the same things that I have! How dare they! They didn’t like a show that I do like, and that made me cry. As artists, they owe me, they must deliver what I want or I won’t pay for their free podcast! I’ve never even been to Minneapolis…

What an insanely creative and wild idea for a show, and kudos to that. After listening to many episodes, it’s just never very engaging.
There’s a lot of fun ways you could / could have taken it, but I’ll just give you one tip as far as attitude: most of the listeners to individual episodes will be die hard fans of the show, whether it was 6 episodes or 11 seasons. You can really like it or hate it, and don’t force it for the sake of listenership, but show a little passion and interest, please.... more

Frequently Asked Questions About First & Last
What is First & Last about and what kind of topics does it cover?
A witty group of three hosts analyzes TV shows by watching only the first and last episodes, then predicting how things end and critiquing what worked or didn't. Across episodes they mix sharp banter with playful bets, nerdy trivia, and surprisingly thoughtful takes on pacing, character arcs, and era-specific tropes. The format is lightweight and fun, yet the hosts aren't afraid to push into deeper commentary on messaging, production choices, and the cultural context around each show. A standout here is the recurring dynamic: bold predictions followed by candid self-critique and humor about their own misreads, making it easy for newcomers to judge whether the humor and banter fit their tastes while still delivering occasional fresh takes on... more
