*Before Streaming Ruined Everything: Remembering Blockbuster & MacGyver | Discontinued | S1E02* - What happens to humanity's greatest pop culture triumphs when the world leaves them behind? Broadcasting straight from the safety of his dystopian bunker in the year 2037, host and Evil Dead franchise icon Bruce Campbell takes us on a hilariously introspective journey through our pre-A.I. past. In Season 1, Episode 2 of the hit docuseries Discontinued, we dive deep into the fascinating rise, monumental fall, and ultimate extinction of four legendary staples of 80s and 90s nostalgia.
First up, the team uncovers the incredible, long-prevailing empire of Blockbuster Video—and how it completely redefined Friday nights before crashing into oblivion. Next, they unpack the accidental genius behind Home Alone 2: Lost in New York's iconic Talkboy toy, a fictional prop that became a real-world playground obsession. The retro trip continues as they admire the sleek engineering of the famed Lotus Esprit sports car, followed by a celebratory look at the ultimate makeshift hero of 80s television, MacGyver. Assisted by an energetic lineup of Discontinued Documentarians and Nostalgia Aficionados, this episode is a colorful, witty tribute to the relics that defined a generation. Join us as we recap this brilliantly funny look at the ghosts of pop culture past!
