Popspotting #160: “Covers Upon a Time” (Nov. 4, 2011)
This week’s Feedback Friday finds a number of fans for ABC’s “Once Upon a Time.” We also touch on “Chuck,” back with what may be its final season on NBC. From BBC, “The Fades” gets a thumbs up, and “Sons of Anarchy” hooks another addict. And from Switzerland, our friend Anna introduces a podcast devoted to “The West Wing.”
Then we move on to more favorite cover songs, from Joni Mitchell’s “A Case Of You” covered by Prince, Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here” covered by Wyclef Jean, and James Taylor’s “Carolina In My Mind” covered by Alison Krauss & Union Station.
We’ll be back after a week off with more Popspotting! But the show goes on only with your help. Got a suggestion for “Wildcard Wednesday”? A strong difference of opinion on a new TV show? We really want to hear from you!

About Once Upon a Time, LOVE IT! Not to be missed! but — Please tell me someone else saw the APOLLO BAR in the episode “That Still Small Voice.” I was so happy to see a LOST shoutout! I hear the writers are from LOST. Love it. P.S. Still loving Hawaii Five-0 for my ultimate Hawaii fix.
Yep, the Apollo Bar was a nice touch. With all the emphasis on forgotten mines, I was half expecting to also see a fragment or two from Jughead (or a donkey wheel!) down there, too!
