Review: Universal Basic Guys “Spectrum Slam”
Overview
Mark trains to win a charity basketball tournament; David tries to find a teammate.
Our Take
Spectrum Slam is the name of a charity basketball tournament that raises money for charity. Just like in every competition episode of UBG, Steve and Mark are on opposing sides where the winner gets a spot on the plaque. David finds a teammate also but gets destroyed but Mark opts for the highly questionable route in trying to get the win.
Family Guy did a lot of this bit when Peter went into the woods and became feral and we’ve seen a lot of competitions out of UBG already. That said Mark Sheard shines from the director’s chair in a number of scenes both in the woods and when Mark’s in a lucid state. The twist at the end has been done a bunch of times as well but overall we get a decent week of Universal Basic Guys even if not revolutionary.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
