Top Five Sidekicks Jan 25, 2017

Top Five

Top Five is a show where the hosts categorize, rank, compare, and stratify everything… from cars to gadgets to people and movies. From stuff that is hot, and things that are not nearly as interesting - it's Top Five.

This week, they may not be the big hero, but the sidekick plays an important role in the stories we love.
