Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a headgum podcast. Hello, and welcome to another edition of Melro 210, a week of another edition of Melro 210, a week. hate movies quarantine side show. That's what I was waiting for. Wherein we talk about an episode of Beverly Hills 90210 on Monday. And then on Thursday, we'll talk about an episode of Melrose Place on Thursday. We have a very special episode here, you guys. I'm really excited.
Starting point is 00:01:17 So I'm just going to introduce everybody. We're joined, as always, by Chris Cabin. Oh, hi, hi. Eric Siska. Howdy, partner? Andrew Jupin. You! And a very special guest.
Starting point is 00:01:30 the cool older girl that doesn't want to be here, Amir Blumenfeld. Damn, Daniel. How you doing, buddy? Good. I'm the Amanda. I was trying to think of something she says, but then I couldn't remember. She's a classic, terrible person. It's so funny. She's awful. I do like the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde twist at the end, where it's just like, oh, no, is the diet pills the whole time.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Well, whenever, we can get into it later, but I just always laughed whenever it's like Four girls in one frame having the time of our life. Cut to the reverse. Amanda just looking stoically. Might as well be smoking a cigarette. Why are you even there, Amanda? Go home. Go anywhere else.
Starting point is 00:02:11 Amir, I want to know, because I always asked when somebody jumps on this show, what your experience is with Beverly Hills 902 and O. Did you watch this growing up? Did you not so much? I watched it with my family, and it was kind of weird. Yesterday I realized I'm like, wait, this show, this episode's from like 1991 or something. And I was like, I shouldn't have been watching. watching this as an eight-year-old boy.
Starting point is 00:02:32 I have a niece who's 10, and I'm like, she's way too young to be watching this show. Wait a minute. I was watching this at age nine with my parents. And we were just like watch it with a family on like Monday nights on Fox. We're like, yeah, 902 and O'Rose. I think my older brothers watched it, so I just wanted to be like them. Yeah, it was me and my older sister. She controlled the TV.
Starting point is 00:02:51 And again, I was way too young to be watching. But it's like, she was like 15. It's like, this is what we're watching, man. We're figuring it out together. Like, all right. Yeah. It felt fine at the time, but then, like, when you see a nine-year-old now, you're like, wait a minute, don't learn about this yet. Were your folks super into it, too?
Starting point is 00:03:09 I think they would watch with us sometimes. I don't know if they were like, we got to watch none of two and no. My dad only watched two shows growing up because he's like, we moved from Israel in 1985. So, like, by 1990, he, like, really mostly only watched Israeli TV still. And two shows, one is Seinfeld and two is married with children. so that's like what became of me. A man of culture. And you grew up in California, right?
Starting point is 00:03:35 Yeah, I grew up in L.A. Not too far from Beverly Hills. It'll be good to get that perspective. Now, did you go to West Beverly High or Beverly High? I actually went probably to the equivalent of Beverly High because I went to a private Jewish school. That's it, yeah. I got a follow-up question.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Beverly Hillbillies, Fact or Fiction? That was a real. TV show. That was not actually. Yeah. So that's a I guess it's fact that it was the show, but it's a fictional portrayal. So you're holding a very thick notebook. How many more of these do you have?
Starting point is 00:04:11 That's it. It's an interview podcast. We're not going to talk. We tricked you into watching this. No, what we're talking about today is Season 1 episode. Troop Beverly Hills. Yes. We all watched Troop Beverly Hills last night. Thank the troops. Thank the troops.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Thank you. for your service, Jenny Lewis. Hey, and Torrey Spelling's totally in that movie, too. Is she really? Did Aaron Spelling have something to do with it? He must have. You know, I think my little daughter,
Starting point is 00:04:38 Tori could be in your movie here, Shelly Long. What do you think about that? I'd hate for it not to get made. Season 1, episode 13, slumber party, which is a very dramatic episode. It sort of is that it isn't
Starting point is 00:04:55 and it kind of like, there's some heavy parts of this that just get breezed on over like we're just like we're trying to just it's a weird like it's like a piece of bowl of pasta and then every so often there's shrimp in there like that shouldn't be in there
Starting point is 00:05:08 you could also call this episode firing squad like it is like it's just such a soft entrance into what this is so we start it's a Brenda is getting letting everybody know
Starting point is 00:05:22 that we are having a slumber party tonight It's not a slumber party. It's a night of female bonding and everyone's kind of teasing or at the breakfast table a little bit, including Chris Cabin's favorite Jim Walsh. He got paid for this episode. Dude, Eckhaus
Starting point is 00:05:38 has some classic delivery here, though, because he's like, what's going on tonight? Because she says something about like, oh, dad, remember, you have to stay upstairs. And he's like, what? Oh, the slumber party. Come on, Eckhaus. This is a testament to Jim Welsh being the biggest piece
Starting point is 00:05:53 of shit in the world. He is, he's downstairs. He's like, I have a staff meeting in five minutes. He hasn't even left the house yet. Five minutes. You're not even showing up until 25 minutes after. Piece of shit. Always a piece of shit. Sorry, guys. I just just talked to my kids about a slumber party. Apologize. I'm just a little late. What was he eating? He was like scarfing, like pouring cereal into his mouth because he didn't have time to eat breakfast or something. To go to his generic staff. Like, do you ever find out what he does? He's also a pig. It is true.
Starting point is 00:06:24 he's uh i think he's like an accountant yeah the the gig they give him yeah but he's definitely like he's like got a fistful of corn flakes and he's like cindy gotta throw some milk in my mouth let's go gotta go kids got gotta set up some tax havens in the cayman islands it's before the breakfast bar was invented okay guys like we gotta cut him some slack all right that's a wrap on gym thank you so much for coming by once the next episode seven more days of shooting all right i'll see you guys next week. Cool, got a week off. Yeah, so then we go
Starting point is 00:06:59 to school and like the thing and everyone's like, oh, is this, we're excited for the slumber party. It's not really a slumber party, is it? Like, it's pretty obviously a slumber party and you shouldn't bring your bitter, weird, older friend to it, is my guess. Don't bring other people to a slumber party.
Starting point is 00:07:15 How about that? She didn't get an invite the shitty Amanda. Yeah. And Andrea barely got invited. Like, why She fucking asked you for a plus one. That was a shock to see her there. She tells Brandon that she's going to Brenda's women's conference is how she puts it. Like, just say slumber party.
Starting point is 00:07:37 Who cares? It's not embarrassing. You're hanging out. Slumber parties are for seventh graders. And we're in 10th. All right. That was so three years ago. Once they finally get together and Andrea Zuckerman's pajamas are so amazing.
Starting point is 00:07:52 She looks like a ghost from the Titanic. Dude, it's crazy what she's wearing, man. I think it was literally what the old lady from Titanic was wearing. Right. Yeah. It's a net made of doilies thrown over this woman. Well, that's because she was 91 when they were shooting this show. Man, you know, town should have, you know, like dog catchers.
Starting point is 00:08:12 They should have grandma catchers where they net old people with doilies. I mean, that's, you know, we shouldn't be making fun of this. Her grandson gave her that for her 91st birthday. It's rude to make fun of a gift, is what I'm saying. It's actually shocking, though, with as much play as Andrea has in this episode, there is not been, they do not do the traditional 90210. Andrea, Andrea, Zuckerman, which we've been privy to for the last like 12 episodes. Anytime she comes up, someone almost throws up and then says her name.
Starting point is 00:08:47 It's ridiculous. Not funny, because she's still like. Like, I would say maybe prettier than Tori Spelling and, uh, Shenna Doherty, but everyone acts like a suckerman, that busted ass fucking loser. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, especially like, yeah, I would be like Donna, Donna Martin is coming to this party. Ew, that's fucking zero. We do get an awesome Donnaism in the early parts here is, you know, everyone's talking to the slumber party. Jenny Garth as Kelly tells everybody that her friend is kind of.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Amanda Pacer, who's an older senior, but as they're walking by, Steve, Steve Sanders is making fun of the slumber party. He's like, yeah, you guys got your nighties already and blah, blah, blah, and I think Brenda says something, you didn't get an invite, you're a zero, and then Donna says, wait, hold on, where is it, left you in the dust? Well, she's like, I hear you're only into cheap thrills recently or something, which means that he's been fucking a lot of girls. which is fine, I would think. But also two weeks ago, two weeks ago in the drunk driving episode, one of those cheap thrills was her friend Kelly. Stephen Kelly hooked up at that party.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Who is standing right next to her. Well, Donna's not too bright. Are they supposed to be in 10th or 11th? It's weird. This season, they said last episode they're juniors, but then they go on summer vacation and they become juniors again. So to keep the show kind of going.
Starting point is 00:10:21 can't do. Yeah, we got to do more than two years of high school. This is ridiculous. We didn't think far ahead. Steve, where does the summer stuff fall? Like, is it at the end of the first season or the start of the second season? I think it's in between the first, it starts the second season. It's the summer again. Uh-huh. Gotcha. So, yeah, left you in the dust. And then Steve goes, your sister dissed me, man. You got dissed. That's a big deal. You ever get dissed in high school or what, man? You ever let that happen to you? I would never because I went to.
Starting point is 00:10:51 to a high school of 80 other people that looked and talked and acted exactly like me. There were no bullies. There were no nerds. It was all just me cloned 79 times. What a weird like four year purgatory that must have been. For me, yeah. It was very sheltered. We were in a bubble.
Starting point is 00:11:08 And then I went to a public college and I was like, oh, illuminated. Let me meet an Asian person. That was me doing Catholic high school and all boys Catholic high school. Oh, that's even next level. That is next level It was in New York So it was a little more Whatever diverse
Starting point is 00:11:26 But at the same time Like I was like Oh wow People are talking about Abortions in college I hope no one gets kicked out Yeah so we kind of move along And what do you call it there
Starting point is 00:11:39 Steve and Brandon are going to hang out And they're going to have this celebrity party We kind of do the slumber party right off the bat And everyone's getting to Brenda's house And Brenda's kind of weird about it She's like well you have to change change into your pajamas right now. And everyone's like, I don't know, it's like six o'clock.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Can I be in jeans for a while? She's even like, it's not a slumber party, but you got to be dressed to go to sleep. Just call it a sleepover. What is wrong with you? I don't know, but how about I change into my pajamas at least after the pizza gets here? Yeah, that's fine. No, you want to eat in your pajamas? Steve, to point out really quickly, though, before we get to the slumber party full on,
Starting point is 00:12:18 we have to mention that there is an element of danger here. there are two prowlers on the loose in Beverly Hills so David Silver and poor Scott have to hear they overhear like that the slumber party's happening and David's like oh fuck Scott there's a slumber party you know what
Starting point is 00:12:35 that means it's camera time it's time for criminal activity trespassing and then a slew of other this is like a sex crime this guy perpetrates I'm not even trying to hide it either just like white bright flash they see me I'm standing
Starting point is 00:12:51 in the window of you're like, what? What's the problem? I'm a fucking idiot. I don't know anything. It's very saved by the bell. He could have walked away. He could have ran away. They take his camera. And he's like, that was my mom's camera. Also, what was that for? So you took a fucking picture of the four girls. Like, they hang out at school too. They're not like making out. You're not recording a porn or some shit. They're just sitting around eating food. Earbook. Your book. Oh my God. Look at Andrea's old lady nightgown. I gotta get pictures of this That's not her
Starting point is 00:13:25 That's just there's a ghost in the fucking photo Somehow I can see a little bit more of Kelly's forearm Oh my God They're eating Doritos I'm calling the cops on you David I think What you're doing is not just
Starting point is 00:13:41 It goes beyond being wacky hijinks Oh yeah I should have turned him in Well that's the thing is that they're like Oh you boys do this thing But like on Monday they're like No we got to talk to an adult about this This guy's, like, fucking stalking me at my house. It's not cool.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Well, Jim Walsh hears about this. Curious. Comes out with a shotgun and kills Scott. That'd be great. Beat the show to the punch, it seems. Yeah, so, like, whatever. It's like, you have to put on your pajamas right now. I swear to God, but it's not a slumber party.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Everybody kind of gets dressed. Andrea shows up. We see Steve and Brandon, and Brandon's again hosting Saturday Night Live in 1994. He's got this tie jeans combo thing, which is looking great. He's a super cool looking substitute teacher, man, at all times. And it's like, okay, we're going to go to this cool club called the floodlights, by the way, like this place. Classy.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Is that a real club out there in L.A.? Amir? You ever hang out the floodlight? No. That was a Jewish jelly, actually. They dressed it up. You ever go to the peach pit? Only after dark.
Starting point is 00:14:52 They did that pop-up in L.A. to promote that, like, self-aware, like, reboot thing that they did. Yeah. B.H. 90210.0. They did open, like, like, a fake peach pit. Did they have, like, a wax statue of Nat? That was a mummified corpse of Nat, Joe E. Tata. There should be also.
Starting point is 00:15:14 He used to do with us? I think he's still with us. Yeah. We wouldn't have seen that trending on Twitter. I mean, there should have. have been a pop-up for floodlights as well and just do radio ads saying like you're bound to get wet at floodlights
Starting point is 00:15:27 and you go there pack them in pack them in yeah you go there and some girls steals your car it's great they try to go in and Steve's like don't worry I don't and there's not even like hey I have a fake ID so I can get in it's like no I'm just going to slip the dude 20 bucks and that's going to do it and very clearly that
Starting point is 00:15:45 doesn't work and Steve gets very white angry here at the at the bouncer he's just like come on how much is it going to take steve sanders as we have already established on the show indeed has a problem with black people that goes without saying after that nefarious basketball episode we had to talk about oof wait was this was this after that episode where brandon went to the other side the bad part of beverly hills and started taking photos of people that's a little that's later on and that episode also anytime we deal with race on this
Starting point is 00:16:17 show it's a little bit not great it's through the lens of Brandon Walsh. Yeah, Brandon and Steve in that previous episode were trying out for the basketball team, but they imagine that any person of color is there from some like fake memes or something.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Yeah, like basically a scholarship student, yada, yada, like that kind of a thing. Right, that can just fail the classes and just skirt by on basketball. It's very, very dicey. And we learn nothing. And Steve remains an avowed racist at the end of it. But they don't get in, and there's these girls that kind of approach them and like, hey, man, you got a cool car, you want to go hang out.
Starting point is 00:16:59 And my thing is, like, that's cool, but it's like, oh, you have to go to your buddy Brandon, be like, oh, so these are prostitutes, right? So what's going to happen is. So how much you got on you right now? We're going to go. That's, that's, there's no way this is a regular pick up. We have to go to one of the three ATMs that are open in 1992. I have a theory about those two. actors is that they got
Starting point is 00:17:23 down to the wire for Brenda and Kelly because they were insanely attractive but not as good of an actor as Shannon Doherty and Jeannie Garth. So like, all right, let's go for Shannon and Jeannie but we'll cast them later on as like two incredibly attractive women
Starting point is 00:17:39 for when they don't need to act that much but we just needed two very, very hot women. Also like there's such a specific like we either need a brown-haired woman or a brunette woman and that like informs every casting decision for the rest of the entire show. The brown haired stick together,
Starting point is 00:17:54 the blonde stick together. And that's that. That's diversity. There's two buckets in Aaron Spelling's office of brown brunettes and blondes. And that's it just kind of, we need, they should never mix.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Every week he's trying to throw cards into each one and see which one he gets more of. Was someone in here messing with my girl buckets? Girl buckets. Oh, that's your, that's Amir's other podcast, Girl buckets on head.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Yeah. It's about the. WNBA. They wind up So these girls are like, hey, we don't It's like, they get going and driving. It's like, well, let's go back to your apartment ladies. Our apartment is being fumigated or earthquake-proofed.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Like, okay, no, we can just go to this abandoned elementary school that I know. That's cool. What are we doing? Like, you are setting yourself up for a Scooby-Doo mystery right now, going to the old abandoned primary school. I mean, they were very attractive, but they wanted to make out, where else are you supposed to go? Good point.
Starting point is 00:18:54 This is true. Well, they tried all making out, like, in the, like, on the road before them in Steve's Corvette, which is clearly a two-seater and everyone's uncomfortable. Brandon, Brandon is looking at this woman, like, like, they've been corresponding, like, from sea and land for two years. Like, he's stroking her hair slowly and, like, looking deep into her eyes. otherwise Steve is just like honking this girl on the fucking on our thigh I do love it I love uh yeah that they're like
Starting point is 00:19:25 it's a fucking two-seater man and like four people at a two-seater it's gonna turn into an orgy really quickly the second anyone's shirt comes off it's all over with I could not believe actually that Brandon of all people was cool with this like Steve Sanders whatever that guy's a fucking degenerate
Starting point is 00:19:41 but Brandon Walsh just sitting in a car making out while someone is inches away also making out? Like, get the fuck out of here with that. No way. Brandon can hang out with anybody, but he can hang out with Steve and then he can also, you know, be like a Cub Scout and that's the cool part about
Starting point is 00:19:59 Brandon. He could do it all. Exactly. He's an every man. But apparently he could even, I mean, where this would have gone behind that elementary school is you and your friend having sex right next to each other in an abandoned parking lot? Totally. It's like the sex scene from Fargo.
Starting point is 00:20:14 but just outside. Yeah, and there could be a killer in the school, you know, Freddie Kruger-esque figure. We don't know. You have to do the, the best case scenario here is somebody takes the inside of the car and then someone takes the trunk. Like, that's the only way that that works.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Like, a closed trunk. Wait, just on top of, on top of the, a closed trunk, yeah. I thought you meant inside. No, that's too small. Like, yeah, it'd be tight. You're right, that's the problem. Brandon could fit in that trunk with another person.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Back at the slumber party, Amanda Pacer, we're all like, everyone starts to quote-unquote pig out. There's like two big fucking prime bags of Doritos, which I love. There is a really uncomfortable, like, because this leads right into Amanda's entrance. She comes up in the middle of the most uncomfortably awkward dance montage. Oh, that's right. Like they bring poor Cindy Walsh in because she comes and she's like, I got some snacks. And they're like, come fucking dance with us. And they're going wild
Starting point is 00:21:16 And it's all that fake music Because we're not licensing shit For these Hulu runs I feel like they used to be Like a Rolling Stone song Or something like more popular Don't you guys remember like that being a recognizable song Like I forget what song it is specifically
Starting point is 00:21:31 But it wasn't generic rock and roll music They're doing like microphone dancing So you think it'd be a big banger like that Like a Rolling Stone song Yeah I could actually let me look up what it is Because I think it was a famous song They're all dancing
Starting point is 00:21:44 it's like in a circle like it's like midsumar or something Cindy join us join us dude it would be awesome if they turned Amanda into some human butterfly sculpture I got it by the way
Starting point is 00:21:59 it is Moni Moni yeah money money money Wow that's right that would make sense because you're dancing and they go money money money yeah like you're at a bad wedding kind of a thing
Starting point is 00:22:09 and they didn't want to pay Tommy James in the shondles they didn't want to pay anybody anything that's my understanding of this because every time and it's always like generic pop punk something or other that's totally anachronistic and just drives me fucking nuts
Starting point is 00:22:26 so yeah this is the worst time Amanda can show up but she does and she's like ew gross you're dancing with an old lady which I get and she kind of pulls Kelly aside and it's like let's go I know of a cool frat party we can get into yada yada
Starting point is 00:22:40 and Kelly's not into it because she's like, I made this plan. And then at this point, Kelly, it's incumbent upon you, like, all right, sorry, this isn't your scene. I could see what mood you're in. You want to go to the party. Go call somebody else. And we'll talk to you tomorrow. But for some reason, it's this thing that's like, just stay for a little bit and see if you like it.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Stay for a little bit. No, it's a close quarter sleepover with complete strangers. You're not going to like it. And she's like, I'll stay for a couple hours. Like, Jesus, that's a really like long fucking commitment to see. things through a couple hours. Well, when a wolf sees a couple of lambs, you know.
Starting point is 00:23:19 Yeah. Anybody recognize this actress? I mean, she didn't do anything, but another notable appearance. She's one of, like, Hillary Swank's friends in the Buffy movie. Yes. Yeah, she's a 90s actress,
Starting point is 00:23:37 you know. Well, Steve, I was saying she didn't do much because her IMDB photo is just her in this episode. of 90210. That's usually a good sign. I was watching with my girlfriend who has never seen 90210. A great episode to start her.
Starting point is 00:23:53 And she's like, this seems like a pilot for a show about Amanda. I'm like, yeah, I don't think she's ever in another episode for the rest of the show. So it's like, let's get along with this new friend Amanda. The Core 5 has been established. Next episode, Amanda's gone forever.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Yeah. We had this episode last week where it's like all about this woman, this girl who's got a baby and all this. Every time we bring this person, And it's like, let's, let's focus all on that, have no character development on these characters that we're going to be with for the rest of the show. So, yeah, like, we're kind of hanging out. We cut back to Steve and Brandon.
Starting point is 00:24:26 They're making out hot and heavy. And this girl's like, I really want to drive your car. And the move has to be cool, baby. Let's drive it together. You know what I mean? Like, that's kind of how you do that. I'm going to ride shotgun and then you can, you know, because she does try to drive it, you know, she does like a gear shift. while they're going down the street driving.
Starting point is 00:24:46 She's like, ooh, I've always loved a stick shift. Can I change the gears? And it's like, I don't know. There's a little too much choreography and driving shift to let someone else handle the fucking shift change, man. No thanks. Yeah, do you guys know how to drive stick? I do.
Starting point is 00:25:00 Yeah, I can drive stick. No. Two yes, too, no. Do you drive stick? No, not at all. No, I don't drive, period. I've never, I don't even have a learner's permit. I had to learn one time because I bought a, like, a really, really shitty car
Starting point is 00:25:13 off of like a family friend just kind of like a little clunker and it was stick so I'd to learn how to drive it and my little brother taught me that was something it is a cool thing to know yeah that'd be a good episode of Albany what's the zip code up there
Starting point is 00:25:29 0004 5 12189 yeah that's one of them that's up there yeah we can use that one I mean this girl that then steals the car She's she's like hustling them because she fakes not knowing how to do stick, right? And then she can do it no problem.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Yeah, great peel out. There is something, an interesting part of this grift because they're making out, and the girl who's making out with Brandon seems to be into it. And she's like, I want to drive your car. And the girl's like now, which means like I want to get to like second base first.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Oh. I think is how that grift goes. That's the way I run it anyway. Oh, okay. Your version. But you're saying though, Steve, that she was, I mean, she was clearly still in on the grift,
Starting point is 00:26:12 but she didn't want, like, the main move of the Gryft to happen just yet. Precisely. She was, like, hang back. There's a lot of night left. Well, yeah, she does that while the other one has clearly hypnotized Brandon. It's like, what is it, four grift instead of four play? Yes, there you go. If I'm Brandon, I think that this girl's actually into me and, like, the con is going on with Steve and his girl.
Starting point is 00:26:36 It's like, great, Steve, you cocklocked me. Like, she was definitely into me. I think they just had made some weird pact before they even met me or something. Yeah, she just came along for fun. She's not in on it. She's a little Steve scared him off. She's going to medical school, dude.
Starting point is 00:26:51 She wouldn't just steal your car, okay? You'll get really personal with her. All of a sudden, like, her dad is sick. If she stole the car, she's got a good reason. Steve, her sister just died. Relax. Brandon. He told me telepathically while I was staring into her eyes.
Starting point is 00:27:07 She told me her entire life story using The Shining. they peel the fuck out and oh it's funny oh it's funny back at the slumber party we're just doing more stuff we're looking for and like we we've done we've done eating we've done dancing and don't hey let's let's watch a movie and brend is like absolutely not and it's like I don't know man like let's rent a movie let's rent a movie like they expected to like go to blockbuster like you can't do that they were talking like they could just download it or something yeah they want to pretty woman, I think, was the title. There's some discussion about a Tori
Starting point is 00:27:44 spelling wants to be like Julie Rout. She has some fucking insanely stupid line where she's like, oh, yeah, I think I wrote it down. What is it? You got the whole thing? Oh, no, I wrote a joke. I always dream about running away and becoming a hooker so that I could meet Richard Gere. Running away and becoming a hooker on Hollywood Boulevard.
Starting point is 00:28:03 That's it. Hollywood Boulevard. You're just going down the road, you idiot. What are you talking about? My note said, you know who could run away and become a hooker on Hollywood Boulevard, Donna. There's our Aaron Spellingism kind of... My little doll Torrey could grow up to be a hooker on sunset
Starting point is 00:28:19 boulevard. You know who could eat popcorn and ice cream. Donna. Yeah, and like kind of, that's kind of what's going on. Like, I agree with Amir, though. Like, I think the move is, we've either rented a movie or we have not rented a movie at this point of the evening. Like, that's how the
Starting point is 00:28:37 90s were, man. If you're in pajamas, you've eaten dinner all right i mean you're in for the night you can't go back out and get a video also you're in conflict brenda had a russian roulette set up for the next activity for the night so you can't do that i'm sorry yeah and i would love that absolutely no movies at all uh but we can and and andrea zuckerman brought a Ouija board on the bus i assume is how this work dude i think that's where she got she got her pajamas from her ghost friend who rides the bus with her Ghosts just start smiling around the bus. Ghosts on a bus, dude. It's like that movie Heart and Saul with Robert Downey Jr. Oh, yeah. You guys like the shot
Starting point is 00:29:18 through the Ouija board? That was a cool. That was pretty great. That was pretty great. Yeah, I love, like, I want more of Andrea's interest in the occult, to be totally honest. That's a backdoor pilot
Starting point is 00:29:29 I'd be totally excited for. Am I misremembering? Wasn't she like a Jew? Like, wasn't that part of her thing at some point? Did they add that later? Was she always like supposed to be the Jew? one. I think she's always supposed
Starting point is 00:29:41 to be her and David are the Jewish characters always always kind of like subtle I think she become there's more Jewish stuff with her later in terms of like
Starting point is 00:29:49 her grandmother Yeah, exactly and like she's got a lot of stuff with that but yeah I don't know if you just After the rabbi completes the exorcism
Starting point is 00:29:58 and gets the demons out of her do you fuck around the Ouija boards growing up Amir? I don't as a Catholic we did not no I was never into that
Starting point is 00:30:06 it does seem like a lady sleepover thing like guys who were like renting a GameCube and playing Bond and then ladies would Ouija board it up. Yeah, my mom did not fuck around with that shit in our
Starting point is 00:30:19 Catholic house either. No way you could have that enter the front door. And I'm always like, I don't believe in demons but I'm afraid of wagerboards. Just in case. Just in case. And like it's kind of really awkward because Andre is like let's summon my grandmother.
Starting point is 00:30:35 And I'm like, I don't know, let's like leave your dead grandmother out of this kind of a thing. Come on, Abe Lincoln's right there. It's kind of a great moment, though, again, just like showcasing, you know, because Andrea is, like, secretly from the wrong side of the track still, you know. And it's this great thing where Donna or I think it's Brenda. Yeah, Brenda is like, well, gee, I don't know anyone that's died. And all of the rich girls are like, yeah, dead people?
Starting point is 00:31:00 What's that? And Andrea has to be like, hey, let's use my grandmother. Okay. I don't know, how about John Malushi? How about that? let's go general someone we all sort of know
Starting point is 00:31:13 how much cocaine was it John yes then the ghost makes its presence saying I'm here everyone gets freaked out I think this is when David Silver also makes his appearance known it's when it turns into a haunted house for like two seconds yeah yes some ectoplasm hits their window but it's not
Starting point is 00:31:32 exoplasm Scott you did it again oh idiot I like the idea of prematurely ejaculated at the window. There's no way that photo came out. No, no way. That photo came out poorly, right? The flash and the window.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Like, you're not going to see anything. Yeah. Yeah, and they steal his camera. He's like, oh, it's my mom's camera. And again, like, it's not, no lessons learned on David Silver's part. It's like, I'll fucking tape you next time. Kind of a thing. Well, this wasn't the first time he's taking a picture of Kelly Taylor.
Starting point is 00:32:06 so it's probably not the last, honestly. He hasn't watched Animal House yet, so he has to get his real primer ready. Next he'll bring a ladder next time. And we come back to Brandon and Steve, and this is when he's like, they're not coming back, Steve. And we get, which is a tradition in this show,
Starting point is 00:32:25 Steve Sanders crying is, he's got the ugliest cry face you've ever seen. It gets red, it gets inside of itself. Dude, his cry, like, Ian Zerings crying face is Ian Zerings constipation face also exact same face it's great Steve Sanders looks like he's trying to
Starting point is 00:32:42 take a shit in this parking lot while he's crying I'm not crying I'm trying to take a shit Brandon right in my pants it was so fast too like they were just like hooking up like 19 seconds ago and now he's completely crying just the waterworks start up I thought it was
Starting point is 00:32:58 going to be a thing where like because he's concerned that his dad's going to make fun of him was the idea but I thought for a second maybe we'd get like a glimpse into Steve Sanders the person and it was like this was my grandfather's last gift he just dot like anything like that and he's like
Starting point is 00:33:13 nope my dad's gonna make fun of me about this. You gotta take your kid if you got a little rich kid with a huge corvette you've got to teach him con artist moves you know what I mean like con artistrating just be on the lookout for the grift at all times man it's coming they get Brandon
Starting point is 00:33:29 convinces Steve to go to the police station they do cutting back what's her name is about to leave Amanda is ready to leave and she keeps wanting to go to this big frat party and she's worried that the guys are going to get too drunk and disorderly by the time she gets there. Not a great. I mean, look, I do agree you don't want to be the one showing up,
Starting point is 00:33:50 but I've done that a couple times. Like in college you show up and everyone's wasted. You're like, all this is just boring now. Like, I want to be one of you, you know what I mean? It was going to take me at least 45 minutes to get there. And so she, but she's like, all right, you know, you want me to stay? Let's play a little game called Skeletons in the Closet. So the game is, that's also a totally valid option, but she's like, the game is, and it's not a game.
Starting point is 00:34:20 It's everyone, someone sits in the middle, and everyone asks them really personal questions and they have to answer honestly. What a fun game. It's truth or dare without the fun part. Yeah. Just truth. Just the gritty, heartbreaking part. All right, Kelly, you go first. When was the first time you were sexually assaulted?
Starting point is 00:34:39 It's like, Jesus Christ. What a terrible person you are, Amanda. Yep, exactly, dude. You knew the story. Well, because Kelly does tell us- You just wanted Andre to hear it? Exactly. She's the only one out of the loop at that point.
Starting point is 00:34:53 But yeah, there's a-joker. She's the Joker. But she's like, oh, you know, me and Steve had sex. and entertainment tonight was downstairs at the same time, which is an amazing story. Yeah. Yeah. And then Steve was interviewed afterwards because his mom was interviewed.
Starting point is 00:35:11 They wanted to, like, could you imagine, like, being a cameraman and, like, oh, I will interview the son and you go in and you know exactly what just happened in there? You can still smell it. But just a second. Sex in the room. Oh, God, I got a pen up. This kid's got come on his pants. Jim, he's hard as a rock.
Starting point is 00:35:28 He's hard as a rock. Jesus Christ. Kelly makes a mention of like, oh, and if you watch the tape, you can see Steve has like this goofy grin on his face the whole time. And I was like, they definitely taped that Entertainment Tonight episode and have rewatched it since that happened. Oh, for sure. Repeatedly.
Starting point is 00:35:46 And that's like her story. And Amanda's like, no, it's not. And it's like, oh, come on. And then she tells this harrowing story. Good acting on Jenny Garth here of her being sexually assaulted by an older football player. It's very uncomfortable. And, like, that's the end of the game, I feel. Like, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:36:04 Like, that's like, okay, we all learned a lesson. And then, like, Andrea's like, I'm next. It's like, why would you? Why do you say your name like that? Sorry, are we just fucking ignoring what was just confided in us? And now we're moving on to how Andrea spells her fucking name. Listen up, everybody. Either you are talking further about this,
Starting point is 00:36:25 or it is time for Andrea and the rest of the friends to leave Andrea, check in with the bus depot. Is there anything still coming through tonight that can get you home? Otherwise, Brenda will give you a ride. No, let's say, let's talk about, what's your favorite calling? Yeah. Right, round two. Wait, am I misremembering this too?
Starting point is 00:36:46 I don't know why I have these, like the monie, monie I remember for, I guess, 30 years now. It's going to be my mind for no reason. I remember the line. I didn't say yes, but I didn't say no. Does that ring a bell to you guys? because I didn't hear it here. And I'm wondering if I'm remembering a different show or a different episode or I just made that up.
Starting point is 00:37:06 Yeah, no, she has a line where she's like, I, he wanted to do it and I wanted it, but I didn't want it like this. I didn't want to be in the woods on my back. Yeah, not on the floor. But I remember specifically, I didn't say yes, but I didn't say no. Does that I think that line might, I think that might be from the episode where Brenda works at the crisis hotline. and then it's another girl who was also assaulted by a football player
Starting point is 00:37:33 Wow really so I like put those two things interesting So it is a line from 9-2 and O but not from Kelly at that moment It was literally a line from like three episodes back Where there was a huge police sting in the school parking lot And these rapists got arrested It was a wild ride Wow okay But now it's like hey Andre who do you have a crush on
Starting point is 00:37:55 And it's like I don't know like fuck off And like again like at she does the right thing, which also is... She says, by the way, no, she says, like, Hans Fleischman, he's a lifeguard I made up just right now. It's such a bad story. He's eight feet tall. Yeah, he's an SS officer from 1943.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Six foot five, blonde hair, blue eyes. And it just fucking, you know, turns me on in some weird fucked up way. I see him in the tower. It just turns me on. And it's way too... Here's the, it's the classic mistake when you're trying to tell a lie like this. There's way too many. details thrown in because she's like she could have just said like you know so and so no
Starting point is 00:38:33 didn't have to give a name you know at a life you know Dylan next oh yeah it was Dylan sorry Brendan it was definitely Dylan but she's like oh it was at this beach and he helped me after I got stung by a jellyfish way too many details dude also where is Dylan like my girlfriend fell kind of hosed I'm like there's no Luke Perry in this episode so did I I feel fucking host every time they do this with Dylan where's Dylan is he not in every up no he's not he's been he's been in like half of the ones
Starting point is 00:39:07 we've done and we've done what is this episode 13 yeah it's a bad delivery yeah it's like a yeah it's like a contract thing where it's like we can only afford you for 10 so we'll figure it out don't worry he's still in the opening credits Luke he's not even introduced until like the third or fourth episode or something like that oh really yeah
Starting point is 00:39:24 you also want to keep you know maybe it's a thing where you want to keep it keep your powder dry a little bit You know what I mean? Like, that's the heat. You want to, like, bring them in in certain episodes, pick your spots. Right. Also, this is a good episode to not be in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Of all the episodes, I wish Dylan were in, this is what I'm like, yeah, it's good that you weren't in this here. Luke Perry is, like, watching at home. And he's like, ah, that's fine. Yeah. Fine, I miss that one. And also, like, Amanda is like, no, it's that brand. I think somebody says, it's Brandon. Kelly says, it's Brandon, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:39:56 And then, like, Amanda's like, oh, that's that boy you're always making. eyes. It's like, how do you know who's Andrea Zuckerman even is? It's like a thousand people that's cool. Yeah, it's all crap. Yeah, my girlfriend's like, by the way, you would know Brandon Wall. She's like, incredibly attractive. It's not like, oh, that guy. It's like, no, this guy's
Starting point is 00:40:13 a fucking male model. You know who he's talking about, all right? And remember when she's like, I want to be unique and Brenda's like, good answer. So I wanted her to say that after she's like, fine, it's Brandon. Brenda's smiling at her, good answer. My genetic
Starting point is 00:40:28 equal. And that's kind of, Andrea, she gets really upset. I think she wants to leave, but then she doesn't. And then, like,
Starting point is 00:40:38 they go to Donna, and it's just like, come on, Donna, give us something. And she's like, I don't know. I dyed my hair last year.
Starting point is 00:40:48 Like, their whole thing, her thing right here is like that Simpson's joke where Homer's like, and my brain's running a mile a minute. And it's just like the wind passes by. Like,
Starting point is 00:40:57 there's nothing to this character. It's insane. Okay, okay, okay. I eat jam out of the jar with my hands, okay? Okay, that's what I do. Okay, are you happy? That's sick. And that's kind of her.
Starting point is 00:41:15 She does literally nothing. Meanwhile, Brandon Steve go to the police station. The cop is just like, well, that's car borrowing, not car stealing, kid. Talk to you later. What are we doing? cops were fucking useless even back then that's what I wanted to talk to you guys about
Starting point is 00:41:31 30 years all of a sudden the cop believes in consent he's just like well you gave her consent to drive your car so that's it and it's like can I see the car borrowing statute in the law please I would like to see that please brings out a giant scroll
Starting point is 00:41:50 and they wind up but they the girls get arrested for some other reason. And Stephen Brand. They were speeding and what was the whole thing? There was a few things. Well, they were going over a hundred.
Starting point is 00:42:04 Without a license as well. So they're bringing them back in the stations. Hey, was that a charcoal co-a-covet with the I-Aid a Ferrari license plate? You fucking turd. Hey, turn, kid. What kind of fucking loser would drive this? Oh, wait. So they're coming back.
Starting point is 00:42:22 Meanwhile, Brenda, it's Brenda's turn in the barrel. and I I this story is kind of whatever she's like I don't know like I kind of made out with my best friend's boyfriend back in Minneapolis right I wanted to break them up but it was this big thing and then Kelly for no reason like just like hey by the way um when you started dating Dylan I tried to steal him away we're still cool right it's like well no we're I'm still in that relationship so we're definitely not okay with it it's actually interesting though because it's the first time they referenced that she's still with Dylan in an episode that Dylan's not in because we've had it before where there's no Luke Perry but it's after we've established their dating and it just it's like nothing ever like last weekend or last week when she's trying
Starting point is 00:43:07 to seduce the skydiving instructor yeah what does that dude Tom or whatever Don Donne it's like excuse me you have Luke Perry sitting at home Brenda Interesting I don't remember that episode either but I wouldn't
Starting point is 00:43:22 Again I just don't it you can always lie and also not tell people that you're trying to steal their boyfriend while they're still dating them even though you're in the skeletons in the closet game. Also Brenda flips out on her. What the fuck is your problem, Kelly? Jesus. She really opened up to you
Starting point is 00:43:39 like a minute ago. Relax. Don't yell at her right now. An all-time flip out. She just stands up and starts screaming. This party goes down the tubes pretty quickly at this point. Amanda gets her wish. We did we need some kid gloves on Kelly
Starting point is 00:43:55 for the rest of the night. You know what I mean? Like, we're all going to just kind of huddle around her. It's like, no, fuck you, Kelly. And then Amanda's like, tending her fingers and she's about to leave. And everyone's like, no, it's your turn. Which she says, this part of it.
Starting point is 00:44:08 I'm not going to play this fucking game, you do. She calls them dupes, which is an amazing. Yeah, you don't have to actually participate and tell your deepest darkest secrets just because we started saying, let's play skeletons in the closet. But, I mean, she's the one that introduced the game, which makes it even more nefarious. But she's just a mischievous grifter, dude.
Starting point is 00:44:26 It's just like the car thieves. She just wants to sew chaos. She can, like, teleport, like, Loki and shit. Oh, yeah. She's a gin. Yes. Oh, that's right. Brenda, you want to have a sleepover, do you?
Starting point is 00:44:41 Well, I, the magic wishmaster, will grant you that. But you have a special guest, my co-worker, Amanda. Lightning strikes. It's just a picture being taken by Scott. Jim Walsh bought a lamp on a business trip and never thought anything of it. And then they rubbed it and... Dude, that's the point. None of this shit would have happened if they just sat around and watched Wishmaster like I did in the ninth grade.
Starting point is 00:45:06 You know what I mean? That's what you do? That's the move. Well, once Donna says, maybe we should get pretty women. Somebody go out and go to the blockbuster and fuck it. Walk there if you have to and give Pretty Woman. Yep. Pick it up immediately. Yeah. So like everything's in chaos. And Amanda's like, fuck it. I'm leaving you guys. And then I think everybody kind of rallies again, like, look, we're still women, we're still in this together, let a man to leave, screw her, and as she leaves, but leaves her bag.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Right. And they're like, oh, let's, she forgot her bag. Let's give it back to her. And it drops. And I mean, these pills are springloaded. Like, what? Or they're just loose in her bag, I guess? Those little loosies.
Starting point is 00:45:46 It looks like the floor of William Hertz's car and the big chill, just pills everywhere. and there's a lot of pills man a comical amount you may say and uh they're like oh my god these are diet pills and then kelly's like that that's why she was acting so mean and it's not really like it makes you irritable if somebody you're on you know if you have that pill you know you're not eating well and like somebody says like you'll might snap at them but you're not like sewing discord wherever you go exactly dude she's like in uh william shatner and the intruder oh my lord just going into that town and sewing a bunch of racist messages throughout it great movie yeah she is an agent of chaos and i think was uh does brenda call her a total bitch
Starting point is 00:46:36 at this point you've been acting like a total bitch that's just a great pretty great cutting line of dialogue oh just because i won't blimp out i love blimp out as an expression i'm going to start using that i think quarantine i've been totally blimping out oh dude i've been blimping out hard on this quarantine, man. Amir, you've been blimpin? I'm trying to limit my blimpage, but it's hard. You know, you're bored. You pop in a microwavable dinner.
Starting point is 00:47:01 It's 3.38 p.m. You're like, all right. Let's do this now. It was easier when there were blimpies. Oh, my word, blimpies. Limpying out is a different thing. I've also done that plenty. Look, I'm just eating at an affordable sandwich restaurant.
Starting point is 00:47:18 What do you want? Is that what plimpies is? I thought, if it was with us today, I know it's passed away probably, right? No, we talked about this a few weeks ago. I think we determined that it wasn't completely shuttered. Well, those are like mirages and ghost locations. But I would imagine their COVID hotbeds. Those and the few remaining ponderoses.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Oh, definitely, dude, you would get the vid from a ponderosa like nobody's business. Well, I'm not wearing a mask in a ponderosa. I'm not going to wear a mask in my ponderosa. I don't even believe in the sneeze guard at the salad bar. yeah you know the salad bar guard it really infringes on your right yeah that's that sneeze guard is taking away personal freedoms definitely yeah are those people going to get vaccines or they don't believe in that either oh they also don't believe in vaccines yeah that's the other part of it if if you think it's a hoax you back of the line for the vaccine too i want the vaccine first we'll do it by masks they're going to put they're going to put microchips in it dude yeah oh and the vaccine track yeah that's right nanobots are going to eat you from the inside out for so if some Somehow the government gives it away for free. They are for sure not taking it. A hundred percent not happening.
Starting point is 00:48:27 Government health care. Have you seen the DMV belt? You should get a score based on how how good you did at social distancing and how good you did with masks. And that's the person that goes first. Like, you know? You have to have earned it.
Starting point is 00:48:42 Exactly. A lot of F pluses across the United States of America right now. So whatever. We learned that she has diet pills which forgives her of all of her sins, including outing her best friend as being raped in front of a group of strangers, which is totally cool.
Starting point is 00:48:58 Diet pills, everybody, diet pills, sorry. We also didn't mention the BNJ, which is like, whoa, what is that? But it turns out before nose job, she says that Kelly got a nose job, trying to further and further shame her only friend at this party. Am I right, Andrea, elbowing here? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:18 Sorry, who are you? no i'm friends with her um uh so meanwhile uh back at the police station those girls show back up and Steve is getting they're like do you want to press charges and the girl gives uh Steve like fluttery eyes I can't pay the fine could you pay my fine and Steve's like brand is like you're not going to do it are you Steve and like he whispers to her you better make it up to me and she's like uh okay uh and he gets fleeced here again one more time he has an asshole line to the cop though
Starting point is 00:49:54 like about the bail he's like it's like that classic Steve Sanders like you take visa I'll pay your bail baby you take visa pig he was crying like four minutes ago and now he's like I can't not want to fuck
Starting point is 00:50:11 this girl she looks like exactly like my ex-girlfriend I have sex he went from rock bottom to like back to what he was like instantly i love that about steve he's a cave man steve you're actually you're totally right though dude i didn't even think about that but the woman that he is like you know really trying to get with of the two of them looks exactly like jenny garth oh she's almost exactly yeah it's she was on the
Starting point is 00:50:35 she was definitely on that list as ameer pointed out it's definitely there uh so they wind up he she gives him like a gift certificate instead of her number to trina's nail salon he's like oh man i thought i was going to barter sex with her fuck well she's still right there she's fucking gave you the note and then walked like three feet just like walk up to her again she's like she'd teleported away as soon as he read the note dude he they walked right out of the frame that's it you're done you left the television land we just hear uh what's that wilhelm scream the drop like to an infinite game i love that screen uh back at the party we we realize you know let's all just let's all just gather our feelings and pig out and uh there's this
Starting point is 00:51:20 this thing where it's like Donna's going to get more cookies and Amanda's like why don't you bring the whole box I've learned I've learned a little something here because you know what you can also just flick off like a fucking light switch is an eating disorder so that's cool easy one and done Amanda
Starting point is 00:51:36 excellent now you're one of the gang she weighs 200 pounds the next morning no blimp down there's a lot of weird you want the whole box you fucking whale what the hell they all shame her instantly you can have
Starting point is 00:51:52 a cookie. It's like the next day she's floating over Dodger Stadium somehow. There is this thing when she's when they can fart her about the diet pills she's like well guys don't like fat girls and then like Kelly's like we don't have to be fat you just have to be yourself like don't certainly don't no no no no one's saying be fat that would be
Starting point is 00:52:08 no no no no no no no no no no no but if you just you know just be skinny like me and not take diet pills I mean it's easy right? You just eat less That's a different disorder, but at least you're not spending cash on prescription medicine. Don't cheat, you know? You're taking valor away from the true anorexia. So it's the end of the night.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Everyone's asleep. Brandon shows up and it's like this classic. Brandon and Brenda just kind of, they've both changed it a little bit. And also, of course, anyone who goes into Walsh House, like, they wholesomeness like tries to seep into them. and Amanda becomes false prey and becomes wholesome by the end of the episode. Yeah. It's like a spell. It's like the fog.
Starting point is 00:52:55 Yeah. It's also one of the rudest things I've ever seen because Brandon gets home from this police encounter way late. They're all sleeping in the living room. And he's talking to her right there while everyone's, it's like if you absolutely have to discuss
Starting point is 00:53:11 this right now with your sister, why don't you go in that huge foyer that your house has? No, come on, Brandon. Let's go cuddle upstairs. Did anybody? I want to hear or see by a show of hands who understood the joke at the end because I did not understand
Starting point is 00:53:25 what they said or what it meant at all. Oh yeah, I got it. Right. I think I might have. It was like, Good night, John boy or something. Good night, John boy.
Starting point is 00:53:33 It's a Walton's. Walton? Yes, okay. And did that come up ever? No, no. No, I think it was just a cultural touch. It's something for your parents when your parents were watching this with you.
Starting point is 00:53:44 Except they wouldn't because they were raised in Israel, but yeah. yeah definitely not playing the waltons in israel Andrew correct me from wrong the walton's how it ends was it the shot of the house and all the lights going off room by room everyone is saying good night to each other this fucking house of horrors
Starting point is 00:54:03 what is with these people yeah it was awful but that's that's what it was the sign of it good night so-and-so good-night John Boyd you know that's what they would do I never watched the show but it's one of those like Gen X horse shit things that was force fed to you in the 90s that I just I'm aware of. The Waltons?
Starting point is 00:54:18 Yeah, well, no, that joke specifically Goodnight John Boy was like, yeah, that was like the joke of it. I think the, uh, the silent generation were the watchers of, of the Waltons. But, okay, so who said that? Who said that to Brandon and why did they say that? Like, that didn't really come up. No. On the floor. Maybe it was Kelly.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Is it Amanda that bitch? That's what happens when she starts eating again. She's just like throwing out all these television references. She should know. I just feel like they could have beaten that For the one ending joke It's like what about the Walton's reference Like what's hilarious about that dude
Starting point is 00:54:55 Is like when she says that line I'm pretty sure it's Kelly that says it It plays That room goes nuts for that line So they were all awake the whole time I think they ate a TV guide When they were blimping out I was at a not a celebrity party
Starting point is 00:55:10 But just a party at my friend's house Everyone's sleeping on the floor How many days ago was this Years ago in high school a male conference it's your classic everyone's pretending to kind of mostly pretending to sleep and my friend's sister came in with her friend and blah blah blah and she said she's just grabbing going through her own refrigerator is like I don't know I don't care but I just know I'm pregnant and everyone was like oh my god
Starting point is 00:55:37 oh boy exactly that's the way that this should have ended is what I'm saying yeah we never spoke of it again yeah that is great um anyways that has been oh actually uh as we go on here as we end here that's the end of the episode a goodnight john boy killer joke from probably kelly or amanda who loves television now that she's off the diet pills right is uh that's how the the episode ends as we always end here on milleroteau and we kind of ask any any parting shots like what did you gather in this episode and or are you and i'll ask you a mirror we'll start with a mirror obviously you're the guest are you going to kind of watch did you and your girl
Starting point is 00:56:16 friend kind of would be like, oh, do you want to put this into our rotation? Are you going to watch some more 902 and O after this or not so much? Yeah, it's funny. We're watching another show that I grew up watching Seinfeld and she has not seen. And I feel like the time that these shows were on is almost a complete overlap. It was like 89 to 97 were these two shows. And like Steve dresses like Jerry dresses like everybody else. Like tight pants, flowy shirts.
Starting point is 00:56:40 One is about high schools. One about adults living in New York. Yeah, I could see myself. It was very entertaining, and it was fun to watch these episodes again. Let's rank it on a scale of 1 to 90210.1. What would you give this episode? 8,843. That was what I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:56:59 That's crazy. What a coincidence. Andrew, anything. I'm sorry. Andrew, fuck you. Fuck me? Well, I won't say anything then, Steve. If you're going to say, guys, you go, fuck myself.
Starting point is 00:57:11 Steve is being a total. Amanda. Total Amanda right now. Oh, yeah, I could be the Amanda of this group. Oh, that's true. I could just be standing with my arms folded. Eric, why don't you tell them all about when you jerked off in ninth grade? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:57:29 No, I'm serious. Let's all fucking hear it. I dyed my hair once. I can't believe you're talking about this. All right, well, it was a real emotional day when I was jerking off in the ninth grade. but yeah I was fine with this episode it falls flat on its face
Starting point is 00:57:48 with what it's glossing over here mainly date rape and eating disorders and I guess car theft but it's funny I mean because like we've talked both this and you know
Starting point is 00:58:02 the other television show we're talking on this series is Melrose's place and you know both have had their tries for having you know message episodes and I feel like both have been sort of more successful recently than not
Starting point is 00:58:16 in certain ways and I feel like this one's a complete failure in both of those regards and I wanted it honestly to be a little, you know, first we have the Ouija board and all of that stuff than the crazy, you know, Freddie Grueger elementary school. They could have reworked this and it could have been a Halloween episode and a bunch of weird shits just happened
Starting point is 00:58:33 with the gang. Easily. Like maybe the girls are doing the slumber party because they have to answer the door. Watching horror movies. That'd be great. Anyway, as always, Steve, whenever there's an episode without fucking Dylan McKay, I'm like, let's just bring him back next week, please. I hope he's here. He better be. Eric Siska. Well, it's not the best episode, but, you know, it was, there were worse ways to kill some time.
Starting point is 00:58:59 So I'm looking forward to next week and keeping this going. And of course, Melrose Place on Thursday, and I want to ask Amir, you ever fuck with the place, man? Yeah, we watched the place. It was like, you know, they did well by putting it on right after 9. 210 but it wasn't right away it was like season two or three right yeah it's a little later yeah it was a good a good uh dessert to 902 now i didn't stick with it i don't think it was very like adult 902 yeah oh yeah it's super sexier and way crazier yeah it was more of like a traditional soap opera yeah chris cab and anything uh i mean i would have liked it better i mean i i didn't
Starting point is 00:59:36 like this episode i i would have liked it better if it was just like the girls talking about like normal things that like you know it didn't every relationship didn't have to be like the one in whiplash you know it didn't like you could just talk between each other and it was just it really frustrated me and like I guess the Steve and Brandon stuff's okay but you know I'll be back next week of course I will you have to be hate myself so that's got to happen contractually obligated
Starting point is 01:00:04 yeah I mean this is a not my favorite episode of the season for sure again I like episodes when everybody's just having a good time a little bit, you know, and this is not that. And it's, uh, it is weird that we spend so much time on Amanda and she doesn't matter at all. And it's just we've all, it's just that, that classic thing where we're learning so much about somebody that does not come back. Uh, so that's that, um, that was, I thought she comes back as Emily Valentine, isn't that? She comes back after her complete metamorphosis wearing a leather jacket. Amir, thank you. I've been like silently holding, Emily Val, no one else in the show has watched, uh, Beverly's 902 and I'm just waiting for Emily
Starting point is 01:00:40 Valentine to show up. I thought we all watched it a lot growing up. This is new for most of you. Yeah, no. So the weird thing with here is that Steve was the 902 and O guy and I was the Melrose Place guy and the other two didn't watch either. Interesting. All right.
Starting point is 01:00:56 And yeah, just Emily Valentine showing up, burning things down. I'm just so excited. Literally. Imagine Amanda, but different. So that's going to do it for this week. Thank you to Amir Blumenfeld for showing up. We started a new podcast called The Headcom. podcast. So it's me and some
Starting point is 01:01:12 headgum co-workers shooting the shit once a week. It feels very like old school radio podcasting before we all tried to do something different. So check out the headgum podcast. That's what I want to hear. I'm not listening to it, but now I will. And buckets, whatever
Starting point is 01:01:28 the NBA comes back eventually, sort of. I hope. We got to bring him back. Send them to Orlando. Don't not to the airport, obviously, because you know, numbers are astronomical there. Or the city of Orlando is pretty dangerous right now. Send him to Iceland. I'm going to play out outdoors.
Starting point is 01:01:43 NBA Island I'm way into. Just find a way to make that happen. How are they not sending them to New Zealand? Like New Zealand, there's no cases there. You ship the players to New Zealand. They're going to have an awesome time there. They can play indoors. They can play out.
Starting point is 01:01:57 They don't have to live in a bubble. It's much better than Disney World. One-on-one with some orcs and shit. It'll work out perfectly. Let's give New Zealand COVID. Yeah. We ruined their entire. our country and leave.
Starting point is 01:02:12 But tomorrow on this show, we are dropping our Shrek 3 episode. Look out for that. We've got a ton of great stuff on our Patreon. We've got a No Country for Old Men. We Love Movies episode. A Singable Catsman Terry. We've got more shit coming up. Just a ton of stuff going on here on the We Hate Movies feed.
Starting point is 01:02:31 And Thursday, we'll be back with you with Melrose Place, ladies and gentlemen. Oh, yeah. So until next time, I have been Stephen Sadek. Andrew Jupin. Eric Siska. Chris Cabin. And I'm Amanda Pacer, sewing discord, being an agent of chaos. It's trying to break this group up.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Take it easy. Remain indoors and wear a fucking mask, please. You know, I'm going to be. I'm going to I'm a lot I'm
Starting point is 01:03:17 I'm That was a hit-gum. That was a hate gum podcast. Thank you.
