Firewall & Iceberg Podcast, episode 92: 'Ringer,' 'Up All Night,' 'Secret Circle' & more

The new season starts early, as Dan and Alan also review 'H8R,' 'Free Agents' & 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia'

And here our troubles begin, folks. The fall season starts a week from today, and the early premieres are coming as early as tomorrow night, so time to start doubling up on the Firewall & Iceberg Podcast for a little while. In the first of what should be at least a two-podcast week, Dan and I break down our opinions of many of these early premieres, including "Ringer," "Free Agents" and (Dan's personal favorite show evuh) "H8R." We recorded this last week, before Dan had seen last night's "Breaking Bad," so that discussion will have to wait for the next podcast (along with Emmy predictions and still more fall TV reviews). The rundown:

"Ringer" -- 05:00 - 16:30
"H8r" -- 16:35 - 26:45
"Up All Night" -- 26:45 - 35:45
"Free Agents" -- 35:50 - 43:40
"Secret Circle" -- 44:00 - 53:15
"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" -- 54:40 - 01:06:00
"Archer" -- 01:06:00 - 01:10:10

    I think the Archer producers have said this arc will be on the Season 2 DVD, so that's probably not the reason. Maybe they just want to see how it does in the ratings as a trial for next year.

      Mike I assume it's to try and get some more of the Always Sunny viewers' eyes on the show.

    Did Dan just call Alan fat? How mean! Fienberg, you truly are the villain of this piece
