Closing out our very special season of Mr. Feeny with the return of a very special supervillain, KARR! The evil super car is back with a new voice and a new look, but he’s still at it with the low stakes crimes sprees aided and abetted by pretty dumb guys that nevertheless have the one quality…

We’re back with another shadowy flight with KNIGHT RIDER! In this episode, Michael comes face to face with his most dangerous foe yet; African Prison Rats! Also, Garth Knight, and, I guess, Goliath? It’s a wild and wooly episode and we are ready for it! Next week we close out the season with...
-
S03E08 - Small Wonder (1985) - S02E01 - "Smoker’s Delight (Chewed Out)"
We saved the best very special episode for last! Wait a minute, check that… this is actually the worst. Take a syndicated show about a goofy loser who invents a perfect robot replica of a little girl, and then have them take a strong stand on tobacco with some extremely interesting takes on...
-
S03E07 - Little House on the Prairie (1974) - S02E15 - "A Matter of Faith"
Does this episode even qualify as a very special episode? Maybe as a cautionary tale to keep your tetanus shot updated? Jay and A.Ron ponder this and many other intersections of the tradwife lifestyle and old school settler/colonialism in 19th century America. Plus, an update on how to do CPR...
-
S03E06 - Punky Brewster (1984) - S02E16 - "Cherie Lifesaver”

-
S03E05 - Diff'rent Strokes (1978) - S05E16-17 - "The Bicycle Man”
Here it is. The tactical nuclear bomb of very special episodes: “The Bicycle Man”. This is some rough stuff, and no wonder it’s become a core gen-x traumatic memory. Are you ready to see Arnold dodge an experienced pedophile while spitting one liners to the audiences’ over the top laugh track...
-
S03E04 - Full House (1987) - S04E08 - "Shape Up”
Ah, Full House, that wholesome mainstay of TGIF television where an x-rated comic, a male model, and the guy who turns out is dating one teenage Alanis Morrisette, raise two adorable girls and a toddler terrorist. Today the Tanners are in trouble. DJ is trying to fit into a bikini in time for her...
-
S03E03 - Saved by the Bell (1989) - S02E09 - “Jessie’s Song”
Coke? Don’t make me laugh? Meth? Kid’s stuff. Alcohol? Mother’s milk. The real threat to teenagers way back in the 1900’s was the demon caffeine. It even brought down squeaky clean, driven, intelligent young women with bright future prospects. Take Jessie here. One bad Geometry exam and she’s...
-
S03E02 - Family Ties (1984) - S02E014 - “Say Uncle”
We’re continuing our nostalgic look back at the Very Special episodes of yesteryear with a look into how the Keatons handle an alcoholic Tom Hanks on “Family Ties”. Uncle Ned is struggling, but Hanks being Hanks still draws plenty of increasingly inappropriate laughter from the audience. Can his...
-
S03E01 - Boy Meets World (1993) - S04E021 - “Cult Fiction”
We’re taking a bit of a detour through our nostalgic trip back through the action shows of yesteryear, with a Very Special Season of Feeny. That’s right, we’re checking out the cheesy, cringy, gather the family around to watch a 23 minute attempt to tackle serious societal issues. And first up…

S02E11 - Knight Rider (1982) - S01E01&E02 - Goliath
It’s time to pull back into the back of the semi-truck and put FEENY into hiatus until it’s time for our next shadowy flight through the action TV of yesteryear. Before we go, we recap an all-time classic Knight Rider episode, the feature length season 2 premiere, “Goliath”. It’s got everything....
-
S02E10 - The Greatest American Hero (1981) - S03E10 - Wizards and Warlocks
We left it up to listeners to guide us to the most improved THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO episode ever, and what can I say? They rolled a natural 20 and crushed the skill check. The show writers had a lot of thoughts on Dungeons and Dragons, Satanic Panics, the Youth and Their Vidya Games. A lot of...
-
S02E09 - Airwolf (1984) - S01E11 - Mind of the Machine
IMDB really picked a gem of an AIRWOLF episode for us this week! David Carridine? A sorta/quasi showdown with an evil Airwolf? A fiery redhead last seen doing cow math on Knight Rider? Some nice character work between Dom and String? This episode has it all, along with some terrific helicopter...
-
S02E08 - The A-Team (1983) - S02E21 - Deadly Maneuvers
On the second half of this season of Mr. Feeny, we’re checking out the BEST episodes of the series we’ve already seen, and this week we’re taking a second look at A-Team’s “Deadly Maneuvers”! Seems like everybody wants an arch nemesis to square off against in the 80s, and this week the A-Team is...

On the second half of this season of Mr. Feeny, we’re checking out the BEST episodes of the series we’ve already seen, starting with The Dukes of Hazzard’s S04E023, “Bad Day in Hazzard”. In this one, the Duke family and the forces of Boss Hogg are held at gunpoint as part of a daring scheme to...
-
S02E05 - The Greatest American Hero (1981): “Pilot”
Our latest 80s action show selection was inspired by Jay’s hazy hotel memories of once being entertained by this show. Jay regrets this pick almost immediately, but A.Ron has flashbacks to the bitter disappointment of a misspent youth where he allowed himself to get excited for a live action...
-
S02E04 - Dukes of Hazzard (1979): “One Armed Bandits”
The Dukes of Hazzard in a very entertaining show that is unfortunately buried underneath multiple layers of Daughters of the Confederacy obfuscation and Hollywood writing room ignorance. Good looking guys and gals tear-assing around the countryside in a classic American muscle car clowning on...
-
S02E03 - MacGyver (1985): “Pilot”
This week we take a look at Big Dick Anderson’s Magnum Opus, MacGyver. MacGyver was James Bond with Bill Nye the Science Guy sensibilities, and when Jim heard he was the subject of our next Feeny, he had to join. This is a great introduction to the character and his schtick, as Mac has to travel…

-

We’re back for season two, where we’ll be sampling from the very best of 80s action television as we watch the pilots where all these stories begin. This week, we’re with the A-Team, who from what we gather are an elite team of special forces con-men, as they attempt to run a mercenary co-op with…

-
No Big Thing
A.Ron thinks this is the dumbest episode of Knight Rider to date, but Jay’s loving this week’s Devon-centric action, as we find out he’s a rather deep old file after all. Devon winds up being the sole witness to the slaying of a journalist who knows too much, and finds himself on the wrong side…
