Trust them, they know what they are talking about
Done with love and great banter. A great podcast to celebrate the unsung comedy Sledge Hammer! I heartily recommend both.
Gerry and Iain do a great job reviewing each episode in their very listenable relaxed way. I'd recommend all their podcasts - Columbo, Star Trek, Jonathan Creek , Fawlty Towers and Quantum Leap, to name but a few.
All the episodes of Sledgehammer are currently on YouTube .
A show very few saw here in the states wins high praise from these two Scottish fans. It’s great to relive this series with them.
I used to watch Sledge Hammer! as a kid but had forgotten all about it. This podcast was a great way to revist a fun childhood show. The hosts are great together and bring fun insight to every episode.
These two gents from Scotland will stop at nothing to give a balanced (Ian) and fair... err...fanboy (Gerry) review of two LA cop shows. From COLUMBO, a multiple Emmy winning show, to SLEDGE HAMMER!, a short lived but fun spiritual successor to POLICE SQUAD! So, after you're done shooting that vending machine you never liked and talking sweet love to your favorite firearm, fire up this podcast and enjoy. I certainly did.
Hooked within the first episode, these guys know there stuff 👍
I'm so glad Gerry and Iain are back with another podcast. This time the topic is the "classic" American police sitcom from the 80s - Sledgehammer. Gerry and Iain are funny, have a good rapport, and seem to genuinely enjoy what they're doing. I love that they're continuing with the format they used for the Columbo Podcast, including the summary, production info, trivia, show notes, etc. I'm a big fan of their Columbo Podcast. I came to it late, but binge-listened to catch up, and looked forward ... more
Sledge Hammer is a truly underrated classic from the great comedic mind of Alan Spencer. Its bemsing for me that a Podcast has never been attempted.. until now! I couldn't think of a better team to attempt this too.. The team behind the fantastic Columbo Podcast! Sledge not only shares tropes from its main influence Dirty Harry but of course from the 70's Universal Studios era of crime drama such indeed as Columbo, Rockford Files, McCloud et al and sends them up unmercifully and rightly so! ... more
A welcome return from Gerry and Iain as they take on Sledgehammer!
If it's as good as previous podcasts, this will be another must listen from these guys.
An enjoyable podcast looking back on the US comedy Sledge Hammer.
Trust these guys they know how to do a tv podcast being veterans of the always excellent Columbo Podcast.
One has been a long term fan and the other is new to Sledge Hammer so you get a view from both perspectives- great listening.
Ready for the guys from the Columbo Podcast to take us on another ride!
The guys from the Columbo Podcast are back and this should be very, very interesting!
Love this show and can't wait for this podcast.
