Fandom on the Rocks

Fandom on the Rocks is home to our episode-by-episode TV rewatches: Glee on the Rocks, 9-1-1 on the Rocks, and Pack Dynamics: A Teen Wolf Podcast.

Join Emily, Alison, and Mandy as we revisit the episodes, characters, relationships, and storytelling choices that made us care far too much in the first place. Expect thoughtful analysis, questionable decisions, fandom history, ship talk, plot-hole investigations, and the occasional moment where we have to ask what, exactly, the writers thought they were doing.

You’ll also find bonus episodes about fandom, conventions, pop culture, and the strange little corners of being a person who has never once watched television casually.

9-1-1 on the Rocks: 1x10 — “A Whole New You” Recap: Season One Signing Off

We made it to the Season 1 finale of 9-1-1! This week on 9-1-1 on the Rocks, we’re talking 1x10, “A Whole New You,” an episode where everyone is asking some version of the same question: who are you when the life you built suddenly changes? Abby has spent years disappearing into caring for her mother. Buck has spent ten episodes trying to become someone worth trusting. Bobby is finally beginning to imagine a future he actually wants to be alive for. And Athena Grant is about to walk into a re

9-1-1 on the Rocks: 1x09 — “Trapped” Recap: Step Into the Mess

Everyone is trapped this week on 9-1-1: metaphorically, emotionally, and occasionally in a flooded elevator. Bobby gives Buck the advice that might quietly change the trajectory of his life: you can’t always pull someone out of the mess, sometimes you have to step inside with them. And Athena Grant is handcuffed to a bed, because Season 1 understood that television should be equal parts sad and horny. This week we’re talking 1x09, “Trapped”: 🗑️ A garbage compactor, a flooded elevator, and a h

9-1-1 on the Rocks: 1x08 — “Karma's a Bitch” Recap: Sorry Bobby, You Have to Live

Karma comes for everyone this week, and apparently she has access to bullets, tanning beds, dump trucks, and one extremely motivated tiger. On 9-1-1, 1x08 "Karma's a Bitch," the universe is balancing its books — sometimes with satisfying absurdity, and sometimes with emotional devastation.

Glee on the Rocks: 5x20 Recap - “The Untitled Pigeon Project”

Season Five ends the only way Glee knows how: with everyone making enormous life decisions, several timelines that absolutely do not add up, and Rachel Berry apparently deciding that the Broadway dream she has spent five seasons screaming about was actually just a side quest. This is 5x20, "The Untitled Rachel Berry Project." This episode, we break down: 📺 Rachel’s sudden pivot from Funny Girl to television, the fastest pilot development process in Hollywood history, and the growing suspicion t

9-1-1 on the Rocks: 1x07 — “Full Moon (Creepy AF)” Recap: Bad Moon Rising

The full moon is out over Los Angeles, which apparently means everyone is legally permitted to lose their goddamn minds because what is happening here. 1x07 “Full Moon (Creepy AF)” gives us synchronized yoga labor, a face-eating maybe-zombie, a deeply enthusiastic tapeworm extraction, and Henrietta Wilson making a choice so bad we would personally like to revoke her full moon privileges. This episode we break down: 🌕 Buck Buckley, noted scientist, explaining that the full moon makes gravity he

9-1-1 on the Rocks: 1x06 — “Heartbreaker” Recap: Happy Valentine’s Day, Don’t Choke

Love is in the air in Los Angeles, which naturally means fake plane crashes, emergency tracheotomies, a man superglued back together (yeah, we know), and possibly the most cursed welcome-back cake in workplace history. 1x06 “Heartbreaker” is where 9-1-1 really starts feeling like 9-1-1: wildly sincere, deeply ridiculous, and absolutely determined to turn every possible expression of love into somebody’s emergency. This episode we break down: ✈️ A proposal so catastrophically ill-conceived it l

"If you are also a 21 year-old college basketball player endrenched in the horrible greatness of Glee, I've got some quality content for you."

"This podcast is great. 3 voices giving you great analysis on arguably one of the best (and worst) shows of a generation. If you like glee and booze or just glee or just booze ... I recommend listen…"
