It’s Weekend Watch time! This week, we’re chatting about three new releases that span teen drama, classic comedy and a horror reboot.
First, a much-loved coming-of-age series is back, and we're ready for the love triangle that's spanned three season.
Next, a long-running sitcom returns with a brand new season. It's still outrageous and boundary-pushing, featuring a crossover episode with Abott Elementary to kick off it's 17th season.
And finally, a new take on a cult horror film has landed. It's got blood, it's got gruesome murders, and of course rich teens misbehaving. But does the reboot land as well as the 1997 original?

your daily pop culture fix.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I'm Moura Brodnick and I'm nam and welcome.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
To Weekend, where we go through the best new TV
shows and movies that have been released this week just
in time for you to watch them for the weekend.
And the fun thing is we get to watch everything
ahead of time, so we can tell you what's good
and what's not. We put in the legwork.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
It's been a very very good week for TV this week.
I want to say I have two recommendations.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Huge for you, huge, huge for me.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
And I also played by the rules.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I love that, I know because really said we can
have fun and follow the rules at the same time.
It's all I'm saying says that one ever fun. A
fun time is an organized time. It's an organized time
with you know, barriers and rules you.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Have to follow. I guess, so these are two fun shows.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Are we having fun? Now?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm having a lot of fun.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Okay, you look sad.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Well, now I'm just like thinking about how like what
a lose I am for following the rules, so I
won't be doing that. Next week we'll.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Talk about Okay, what's your first recommend?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
That show I want to talk about is the third
and final season of the Summer I turn pretty Prime Video.
We've come a long long way.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
First loves are important, that they're not as important as last.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I don't want to.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Look at anything else now that I saw you.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Have you ever been in love once?
Speaker 3 (01:52):
What was her?
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Belly?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
I loved him in a way that you can only
really do the first time around. But that's the past. Jeremiah,
he's my future. This is the way it's supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
We're getting married.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I'm sorry, what did you know? Of course, Belly, Honey,
you weren't ready for a commitment like this.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
You're talking about a lifetime.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Oh I want to be with Belly for a lifetime.
I can commit to that easy. That is how I
know you weren't ready.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Is there everything? Okay? How are we supposed to do
this without both of them?
Speaker 3 (02:29):
All?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I got you. You and Jeremiah are really lucky. You
get to spend the rest of your life with a
guy that you love. Not a lot of people can
say that.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
When I'm with Jerr, everything is easier. But everywhere I
go there's a memory of Conrad.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
You just seem like you got everything figured out, your.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Life in California, your career.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
You're just all grown up.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
You know, you've changed a lot too.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Stas the brilliant Lola Tongue who plays Belly. The whole
thing is about how she is suddenly pretty one summer
and she has like these family friends and the two brothers,
Conrad and Jeremiah, and she just goes between them by.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
But I love the idea that she turned pretty this
summer and they were just like it happens. Can I
just say, personally still waiting maybe this summer summer twenty
twenty five. Yes, this is a summer I'm gonna turn pretty.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
And I'll turn pretty in twenty twenty six, so we
don't share the summer.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Yeah, I mean, please let me go first. Can I
have my own summer being pretty? You can do your
first brothers That will find two brothers.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
And it's could be the same brothers but hopefully different ones. Anyway,
we don't know what's going to That's the formula of
what happens. You turn pretty one summer, and then there's
two brothers you get to choose her, and they're both
very good looking. You're all good looking. Everyone in the
show is very good looking. Anyway. Season three is kicked off.
Two episodes are out already. They're bad, like fifteen minutes
each episode. The stakes are high, guys, because it is
(03:54):
the last season. So we're like, who's she gonna pick?
Is she gonna pick Conrad, Is she gonna pick Jeremiah?
Or will she pick herself?
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Now?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Look, listen, Okay, I am a feminist.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Okay, if she picks herself, I am throwing the house.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I'm gonna be so mad at this girl.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
You know when it's not okay to be a single
empowered woman in a teen rom com. I don't want
to see it. I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Seleva Dunham had nothing to do with this, Okay. So
that means I need her to end up with one
of the guys.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I'm sorry, she needs to have him in. That's what
she needs. She needs to put her worth and attach
her worth to a man in her life.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
In this particularly instanctly so it is always that the
last season, we saw her picking quote unquote picking Jeremiah
over Conrad.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Now they start this season engaged.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
They don't start the season. I haven't watched it, guys,
I know the trailer can be a bit misleading. Oh,
I watched the trailer. They don't start the season engage.
She's in college with her best friend Taylor as well
as her lover Jeremiah, which I feel like is low
key problematic, But we're starting off with like we're setting
the tone right. When you choose what college you want
to go to, you have to pick the one with
your best friend and your boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Again, this is what teen romcoms have taught us, going
back to Felicity in the nineties, you pick your college
based on your high school crush. That's that.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So the first episode, I don't want to give too
much away because it did come out on Wednesday, so
you have the weekend to watch it. Shit goes down, guys,
love I and I just want to say, so far,
I've been team Jeremiah. I think I might be team Conrad.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
That is a radical thing to say, because his fandom
is so intense, so intense, like the people who make
the show had to put out warnings on social media,
being like, hey, guys, we know you're super invested in
the show and that everyone's team Jeremiah or team Conrad.
But please, they had to be pretty much to say,
please don't incite violence, Please don't threaten the lives of
other people. Let's just keep it clean, keep it happy.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
To that, I say, screw that, I'm inciting violence.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Emily, he's out in the street, kids, take him down.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Take him and Ald Jeremiah fans down. It's team Conrad.
But who's to say, because I think that's the whole
reason for that summer time. Pretty you swap who you
like either Conradmiah and I swapped for the first time
and the first episode of season three. I don't know
what's gonna happen at the end.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
So you want you want her to end up with Jeremiah.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I want her to right now, I want her to
end up with Conrad.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Okay, Oh okay, But.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Right up until now, it's always been Jeremiah.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Okay, because I feel like the fandoms really leaning more
towards Conrad. Like when I see them doing press and
all they say to the audience, which team are you?
They're all yelling out team Conrad, and even the actor
who plays Jeremiah was like, I think the world is
team Conrad, so.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Which sucks because Jeremiah just like the thing is the
difference between Jeremiah and Conrad is like Jeremiah actually likes her.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Okay, huge, But also, as we know, not always the
sexiest thing.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Not always the sexiest thing. Sometimes you just want a
man who just doesn't want anything.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
To do with it and who can't stand you, and
we need to normalize that. Okay, don't let guys, don't
let any teenagers listen to this pod. We can't.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Okay, so some my turn. Pretty final season out on
Prime video. I do have another recommendation, okay, really quickly.
I feel like I've been waiting for so long for
this season. Season seventeen of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
is out right now on Disney Plus.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Hello everyone, Philadelphia the birthplace of our nation? Could it
be the birthplace of a new love? Oh? Baby?
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Am I boned up?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
When we get at the chest compressions, Should I take
your shirt off?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Or should you take mine off?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Her?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I got it, so help me go on.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
We will get this right.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Why it's just thrilling Welcome to the Golden Dassler season finale,
can't wait to find a Grade Ay prime cut piece
of to Love. So, I mean, it's not a similar show,
but the first two episodes, like the Summer Turned Pretty
(08:01):
are out. They're about twenty minutes per episode. The first
episode I need everyone to watch, especially if you're a
fan of the other Disney sitcom Abbot Elementary.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Huge family, A huge fan of it is the crossover episode.
Oh my god, that is your TV Crissmas.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
It is the best thing. So, as you know, I
did mention this on week and watch the last season
of Abbot Elementary when it came out. They did a
crossover of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and that was
on their platforms and now it's It's Always Sunny's but
form both really really funny show. Abbot Elementary is more
like wholesome funny comedy family TV. They also want nominated
(08:40):
for some Emmys. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia's like rogue,
potty mouth, like chaotic. So watching the characters of Abbot
Elementary speak in the way that the Always Sunny characters
speak is so bizard but so so good. It is
such a funny episode. Both episodes are so good. But
(09:00):
if you've been waiting for the season, it's like it's
the longest running live action sitcom in America in history,
and it's so so good, it's so funny, it's just
such good TV. I'm best really good TV and this
is really good TV.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Those are my recommendations. It's a beautiful week to show.
Both those on Disney Plus Abbit Elementary and It's Always
Sunny are both on Disney plats. So watch them boat
because their boat's so good.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
All right, switching the tone slightly, You and I went
a little. We haven't seen each other for a while,
you know, we have. We haven't had a chance to
really connect.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
We didn't even connect after Jurassic World.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh yeah, well yeah, because that's how long it's been.
I know that is how long it's been. But we
we rectified that this week when a little movie date
dates a strong word because I said, Emily, you're coming
to this ye, And I dragged you, kicking and screaming across.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
The road and we bookmarked everyone else like our whole
company was sitting in between us.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah. Our office is now crossed the road from where
we go to the screenings. It could not be easier.
So we went and saw the new I Know What
You Did Last Summer Movie, which is at and Cinema
is Now.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Of our best friends are gett get married.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Oh I'm going down.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
We don't tell anybody what happened tonight.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
What if someone saw us outside of us?
Speaker 2 (10:22):
No one knows what happened.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Someone is clearly coming after us and start drinking.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
The cops are not going to help.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Us, and we'll find someone who will. It isn't something
I like talking about it. You survived this one's we
need your help.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
You can't rhyn, you can't hide.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Get them before they get you.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Now, this was a huge, huge moment for me, and
I went to it just after I interviewed Pedro Pascal
and Vanessa Kobe. So I'm already emotionally at a fifteen
on a scale of one to ten. But I cannot
stress enough how much the original I Know What You
Did Last Summer Movie meant to me. So I was
a child when it came out. Came out in nineteen
(11:11):
ninety seven, and so I wasn't allowed to see the
movies obviously because that would have been child the use.
But the DVD, I do believe, or maybe it was
a VHS. Who would know. Probably Divin started making the
rounds sleepovers when I was in primary school and that's
when I saw it. Scared the absolute living shit out
of me and my friends. I don't think I slept
for a week afterwards, But once I became a teenager,
(11:31):
I would watch it over and over again because if
you don't know, it stars the hottest stars of that moment,
Freddie Prince Jr. Jennifer Love, Hewitt, Ryan Phillippi, and the
greatest actress who has ever worked this earth, Sarah Michelle Gallah.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Yes you can't look in the eye.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Oh God, No, God, I don't. That woman doesn't exist
to me, just she exists outside this world anyway. So
you know, they play hot sexy teens who kills someone
and cover up the murder, and then then the next
year when this little seaside town they live and they
start getting these notes. I know we did last summer
and a man in a a person I went spoiler
of him seen in a fisherman's slicker and a huge hook,
(12:08):
kills everyone in the town, obviously, and as tortures them
and murders some of them and it's an incredible, incredible
movie in the slash genre, which was really kind of
really hyping up at that moment. And then the year later,
the sequel I Still Know What You Did Last Summer
came out with the cast members who survived, so Jennifer
Love Hewett and to Freddie Prince Studior. And that's still
a great movie. It's a fun time. I loved it,
(12:30):
Brandy's in it. Huge, so true. And then now twenty
twenty five, nearly thirty years after the original, they brought
it back. So this new movie I Know What You
Did Last Summer Staying with Me Here is a sequel too.
I Still Know What You Did Last So much came
out in nineteen ninety eight, so it's continuing that story
and it picks up in like present day in the
same town where a new group of sexy young teens
(12:50):
are hanging out.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
This is a great coast.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Madeline Klein, who people know from Outer Banks, is in it.
Chase Sue Wonders, who you would know from so many things.
She got her really big break in that horror comedy
film Bodies, Body's Body, Yes, that she was in. She's
also been in the studio your favorite show. Yes, and
there's so many things. Sarah Pigeon is in it, like yeah,
who Gabriette the ultimate ultimate hit girl, model, fashion icon
(13:16):
engaged to Maddie Healy, but we won't judge her for
that is in it. She plays a true crime pod
absolute scene stealer. Put that woman in every movie. I
loved her so much. So it's a new group of
teens who are still living in the same little beach
side town and they accidentally kill someone. It happens more often.
It happens more often than you think. You just you know,
(13:36):
that's what happens in your teen years, I'm surepecially when
you're hot and popular, hot and popular and accellently killing someone.
It's just the everyday teen experience in high school. We
need to normalize that. And so a year later they
start getting the notes of I know what you did
last summer, and people in the town start getting really
murdered by someone in a fisherman's jacket with a hook.
And so, who you're gonna.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Call ghost Busters?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Mate?
Speaker 2 (13:59):
You call?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
You call the people from the original movie.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
You survived, because they know what to do.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Julie and Ray So Jennifer of Hewitt reprises her role
as Julie James up to a studio. Yeah, oh my god.
If Freddy Prince Junior reprises his role as Ray you
pick up their lives.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah, thirty years after so good looking they are both.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I also okay, this is.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The point where I cannot deal with how good looking
Freddy Prince studio.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
It was so emotional in this because the movie itself
is for the first half anyway fine, silly fun. Yes,
there's a bit of gore. I personally don't think that
was at all gory or scary. It's very calm, it's
very camp. I saw a few people in out like you,
and a few people in our roy were like jumping scared,
so maybe that might happen.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Because I'm a big horror movie fan, but I am
one of those people who like genuinely get scared, and
horror movies like I can never watch one by myself.
I have to like really build myself up to like
watch one because I genuinely get like I invest so
much emotion into it, so I genuinely get scared. So
it is one of those like slasher movies that it's
a lot of jump scared. It's not like creepy, eerie.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
It's like very like oh oh yeah, and a lot
of silliness in there.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
So I got very emotional kind of in the midst
of that silliness. See Jennifer love Hewett and Freddie Prince
Junior back on our screens in these characters that I
love so much. I started cheering and clapping my.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Head in so good And even though like Jennifer Love
Hewitt's line of saying no one loves Nostyle Jar, I
was just like ah.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Also, one of my most iconic lines in the original
is when she yells out what are you waiting for?
To taunting the killer and she reprised that the movie too,
and I was like, literally I was on my feet
clapping my hands. So I love that. There's some other
little surprise cameos in the movies that I won't spoil
for anyone, but a tear did come out.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I just ie a tear. I literally there was a
certain cameo where I literally like blocked everyone's view because
I think I kind of stood up and looked at you, yeah,
and I was I was like, I just needed to
see your face during that moment.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Listening it happened oh yeah, so much. Altho, I'm sure
like no one else in the theater wanted maybe up
cheering and clapping as much as I was. But guys,
it was such a moment. So I'll say, obviously it's
you should go and watch the original. I know what
you did last summer, and I still know what you
did last because I think they really hold up as
these like also they're a bit camp thrillers. This new one,
(16:15):
this twenty twenty five version is a bit sillier, but
I think also just more of the time, it's like taking.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Also the piss out of like slasher movies in general,
which like a lot of them do like scream and
stuff like.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
That, and a lot of the dialogue I think is
very like I think it's gonna date quickly, and I
don't do that in a bad way. It's gonna date
very quickly because it's very like of this moment.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, but like if it's giving nuptials.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yeah, I know, Madly Client what a scene stealers. But
her character, yeah, from Outer Banks, you would know her.
She's a real scene stealer in this as Dan car
even just something like the Rede rap songs and stuff,
they'll play.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
It was.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It was very of the moment, and I love that.
In saying that, without giving away any spoilers, I just
need to say one thing to the people who created this.
I know what you did last summer movie. Okay, how
freaking dare you? Is all I'll say to that about
the ending. The ending, first of all, way to steal
(17:07):
from Scream. And I've never thought that these two horror
franchises crossed. I thought they existed in their own worlds.
I will say there's a twist that is.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Melb because I haven't seen any of the original film
e of those two movies. Yeah, so those two movies.
I was like, Oh, is this the same movie?
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah, yeah, exactly exactly. And so I feel like the
ending was a huge cop out. I think they stole
elements from Scream. And I also think that they did
a huge, huge, huge service to the original story and
the original characters. And I know they did it for
shock value, but at what cost? At what cost? And
I just think that they shouldn't have done it. And
(17:46):
I'm really angry, and I've had thirty years to build
this up, and I just feel like they've trashed my
childhood of watching slasher movies, and I didn't love it.
So I'll just say that in the ending, when you
guys watch it way it's now, and I will just
say there's a little end credit scene. Yes, stay for that, Yes,
because holy hell, that was amazing. The end was like
(18:07):
pure gold, pure gold, and pure nostalgia for like die
hard fans of the person they brought back in that
last moment, and also really set it up for a
sequel to this new movie, which.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I did not expect exactly. I mean, I thought it
was gonna be a one and done and.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Obviously I know I'm scream at the ending, but obviously
I'll be the first one to go and see that
movie when it comes out. But yeah, I'm just gonna
say I loved being back in that world. I loved
seeing especially Jennifer love Hewart back on the screen. To
anyone who's people were being really nasty about her body
on the red carpet, and to that, I say, shut
the hell up. How dare you say anything about that woman?
And she looked perfect and she is cheap, it is perfect,
(18:43):
and I just everything. Yeah, I can't, I'm not here
for that. Yeah, don't say anything about her and I'm
very much looking forward to where the next movie goes
from this sequel, but I also just think ending was
a cop out. But the movie is fun, so I know.
We did last summer in cinemas now also watched the originals.
It's all I said.
Speaker 2 (19:00):

Speaker 2 (00:55):
And I also played by the rules.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I love that, I know because really said we can
have fun and follow the rules at the same time.
It's all I'm saying says that one ever fun. A
fun time is an organized time. It's an organized time
with you know, barriers and rules you.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Have to follow. I guess, so these are two fun shows.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Are we having fun? Now?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm having a lot of fun.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Okay, you look sad.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Well, now I'm just like thinking about how like what
a lose I am for following the rules, so I
won't be doing that. Next week we'll.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Talk about Okay, what's your first recommend?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
That show I want to talk about is the third
and final season of the Summer I turn pretty Prime Video.
We've come a long long way.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
First loves are important, that they're not as important as last.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I don't want to.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Look at anything else now that I saw you.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Have you ever been in love once?
Speaker 3 (01:52):
What was her?
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Belly?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
I loved him in a way that you can only
really do the first time around. But that's the past. Jeremiah,
he's my future. This is the way it's supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
We're getting married.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I'm sorry, what did you know? Of course, Belly, Honey,
you weren't ready for a commitment like this.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
You're talking about a lifetime.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Oh I want to be with Belly for a lifetime.
I can commit to that easy. That is how I
know you weren't ready.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Is there everything? Okay? How are we supposed to do
this without both of them?
Speaker 3 (02:29):
All?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I got you. You and Jeremiah are really lucky. You
get to spend the rest of your life with a
guy that you love. Not a lot of people can
say that.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
When I'm with Jerr, everything is easier. But everywhere I
go there's a memory of Conrad.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
You just seem like you got everything figured out, your.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Life in California, your career.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
You're just all grown up.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
You know, you've changed a lot too.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Stas the brilliant Lola Tongue who plays Belly. The whole
thing is about how she is suddenly pretty one summer
and she has like these family friends and the two brothers,
Conrad and Jeremiah, and she just goes between them by.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
But I love the idea that she turned pretty this
summer and they were just like it happens. Can I
just say, personally still waiting maybe this summer summer twenty
twenty five. Yes, this is a summer I'm gonna turn pretty.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
And I'll turn pretty in twenty twenty six, so we
don't share the summer.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Yeah, I mean, please let me go first. Can I
have my own summer being pretty? You can do your
first brothers That will find two brothers.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
And it's could be the same brothers but hopefully different ones. Anyway,
we don't know what's going to That's the formula of
what happens. You turn pretty one summer, and then there's
two brothers you get to choose her, and they're both
very good looking. You're all good looking. Everyone in the
show is very good looking. Anyway. Season three is kicked off.
Two episodes are out already. They're bad, like fifteen minutes
each episode. The stakes are high, guys, because it is
(03:54):
the last season. So we're like, who's she gonna pick?
Is she gonna pick Conrad, Is she gonna pick Jeremiah?
Or will she pick herself?
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Now?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Look, listen, Okay, I am a feminist.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Okay, if she picks herself, I am throwing the house.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I'm gonna be so mad at this girl.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
You know when it's not okay to be a single
empowered woman in a teen rom com. I don't want
to see it. I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Seleva Dunham had nothing to do with this, Okay. So
that means I need her to end up with one
of the guys.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I'm sorry, she needs to have him in. That's what
she needs. She needs to put her worth and attach
her worth to a man in her life.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
In this particularly instanctly so it is always that the
last season, we saw her picking quote unquote picking Jeremiah
over Conrad.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Now they start this season engaged.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
They don't start the season. I haven't watched it, guys,
I know the trailer can be a bit misleading. Oh,
I watched the trailer. They don't start the season engage.
She's in college with her best friend Taylor as well
as her lover Jeremiah, which I feel like is low
key problematic, But we're starting off with like we're setting
the tone right. When you choose what college you want
to go to, you have to pick the one with
your best friend and your boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Again, this is what teen romcoms have taught us, going
back to Felicity in the nineties, you pick your college
based on your high school crush. That's that.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So the first episode, I don't want to give too
much away because it did come out on Wednesday, so
you have the weekend to watch it. Shit goes down, guys,
love I and I just want to say, so far,
I've been team Jeremiah. I think I might be team Conrad.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
That is a radical thing to say, because his fandom
is so intense, so intense, like the people who make
the show had to put out warnings on social media,
being like, hey, guys, we know you're super invested in
the show and that everyone's team Jeremiah or team Conrad.
But please, they had to be pretty much to say,
please don't incite violence, Please don't threaten the lives of
other people. Let's just keep it clean, keep it happy.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
To that, I say, screw that, I'm inciting violence.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Emily, he's out in the street, kids, take him down.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Take him and Ald Jeremiah fans down. It's team Conrad.
But who's to say, because I think that's the whole
reason for that summer time. Pretty you swap who you
like either Conradmiah and I swapped for the first time
and the first episode of season three. I don't know
what's gonna happen at the end.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
So you want you want her to end up with Jeremiah.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I want her to right now, I want her to
end up with Conrad.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Okay, Oh okay, But.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Right up until now, it's always been Jeremiah.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Okay, because I feel like the fandoms really leaning more
towards Conrad. Like when I see them doing press and
all they say to the audience, which team are you?
They're all yelling out team Conrad, and even the actor
who plays Jeremiah was like, I think the world is
team Conrad, so.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Which sucks because Jeremiah just like the thing is the
difference between Jeremiah and Conrad is like Jeremiah actually likes her.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Okay, huge, But also, as we know, not always the
sexiest thing.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Not always the sexiest thing. Sometimes you just want a
man who just doesn't want anything.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
To do with it and who can't stand you, and
we need to normalize that. Okay, don't let guys, don't
let any teenagers listen to this pod. We can't.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Okay, so some my turn. Pretty final season out on
Prime video. I do have another recommendation, okay, really quickly.
I feel like I've been waiting for so long for
this season. Season seventeen of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
is out right now on Disney Plus.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Hello everyone, Philadelphia the birthplace of our nation? Could it
be the birthplace of a new love? Oh? Baby?
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Am I boned up?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
When we get at the chest compressions, Should I take
your shirt off?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Or should you take mine off?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Her?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I got it, so help me go on.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
We will get this right.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Why it's just thrilling Welcome to the Golden Dassler season finale,
can't wait to find a Grade Ay prime cut piece
of to Love. So, I mean, it's not a similar show,
but the first two episodes, like the Summer Turned Pretty
(08:01):
are out. They're about twenty minutes per episode. The first
episode I need everyone to watch, especially if you're a
fan of the other Disney sitcom Abbot Elementary.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Huge family, A huge fan of it is the crossover episode.
Oh my god, that is your TV Crissmas.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
It is the best thing. So, as you know, I
did mention this on week and watch the last season
of Abbot Elementary when it came out. They did a
crossover of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and that was
on their platforms and now it's It's Always Sunny's but
form both really really funny show. Abbot Elementary is more
like wholesome funny comedy family TV. They also want nominated
(08:40):
for some Emmys. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia's like rogue,
potty mouth, like chaotic. So watching the characters of Abbot
Elementary speak in the way that the Always Sunny characters
speak is so bizard but so so good. It is
such a funny episode. Both episodes are so good. But
(09:00):
if you've been waiting for the season, it's like it's
the longest running live action sitcom in America in history,
and it's so so good, it's so funny, it's just
such good TV. I'm best really good TV and this
is really good TV.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Those are my recommendations. It's a beautiful week to show.
Both those on Disney Plus Abbit Elementary and It's Always
Sunny are both on Disney plats. So watch them boat
because their boat's so good.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
All right, switching the tone slightly, You and I went
a little. We haven't seen each other for a while,
you know, we have. We haven't had a chance to
really connect.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
We didn't even connect after Jurassic World.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh yeah, well yeah, because that's how long it's been.
I know that is how long it's been. But we
we rectified that this week when a little movie date
dates a strong word because I said, Emily, you're coming
to this ye, And I dragged you, kicking and screaming across.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
The road and we bookmarked everyone else like our whole
company was sitting in between us.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah. Our office is now crossed the road from where
we go to the screenings. It could not be easier.
So we went and saw the new I Know What
You Did Last Summer Movie, which is at and Cinema
is Now.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Of our best friends are gett get married.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Oh I'm going down.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
We don't tell anybody what happened tonight.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
What if someone saw us outside of us?
Speaker 2 (10:22):
No one knows what happened.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Someone is clearly coming after us and start drinking.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
The cops are not going to help.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Us, and we'll find someone who will. It isn't something
I like talking about it. You survived this one's we
need your help.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
You can't rhyn, you can't hide.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Get them before they get you.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Now, this was a huge, huge moment for me, and
I went to it just after I interviewed Pedro Pascal
and Vanessa Kobe. So I'm already emotionally at a fifteen
on a scale of one to ten. But I cannot
stress enough how much the original I Know What You
Did Last Summer Movie meant to me. So I was
a child when it came out. Came out in nineteen
(11:11):
ninety seven, and so I wasn't allowed to see the
movies obviously because that would have been child the use.
But the DVD, I do believe, or maybe it was
a VHS. Who would know. Probably Divin started making the
rounds sleepovers when I was in primary school and that's
when I saw it. Scared the absolute living shit out
of me and my friends. I don't think I slept
for a week afterwards, But once I became a teenager,
(11:31):
I would watch it over and over again because if
you don't know, it stars the hottest stars of that moment,
Freddie Prince Jr. Jennifer Love, Hewitt, Ryan Phillippi, and the
greatest actress who has ever worked this earth, Sarah Michelle Gallah.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Yes you can't look in the eye.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Oh God, No, God, I don't. That woman doesn't exist
to me, just she exists outside this world anyway. So
you know, they play hot sexy teens who kills someone
and cover up the murder, and then then the next
year when this little seaside town they live and they
start getting these notes. I know we did last summer
and a man in a a person I went spoiler
of him seen in a fisherman's slicker and a huge hook,
(12:08):
kills everyone in the town, obviously, and as tortures them
and murders some of them and it's an incredible, incredible
movie in the slash genre, which was really kind of
really hyping up at that moment. And then the year later,
the sequel I Still Know What You Did Last Summer
came out with the cast members who survived, so Jennifer
Love Hewett and to Freddie Prince Studior. And that's still
a great movie. It's a fun time. I loved it,
(12:30):
Brandy's in it. Huge, so true. And then now twenty
twenty five, nearly thirty years after the original, they brought
it back. So this new movie I Know What You
Did Last Summer Staying with Me Here is a sequel too.
I Still Know What You Did Last So much came
out in nineteen ninety eight, so it's continuing that story
and it picks up in like present day in the
same town where a new group of sexy young teens
(12:50):
are hanging out.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
This is a great coast.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Madeline Klein, who people know from Outer Banks, is in it.
Chase Sue Wonders, who you would know from so many things.
She got her really big break in that horror comedy
film Bodies, Body's Body, Yes, that she was in. She's
also been in the studio your favorite show. Yes, and
there's so many things. Sarah Pigeon is in it, like yeah,
who Gabriette the ultimate ultimate hit girl, model, fashion icon
(13:16):
engaged to Maddie Healy, but we won't judge her for
that is in it. She plays a true crime pod
absolute scene stealer. Put that woman in every movie. I
loved her so much. So it's a new group of
teens who are still living in the same little beach
side town and they accidentally kill someone. It happens more often.
It happens more often than you think. You just you know,
(13:36):
that's what happens in your teen years, I'm surepecially when
you're hot and popular, hot and popular and accellently killing someone.
It's just the everyday teen experience in high school. We
need to normalize that. And so a year later they
start getting the notes of I know what you did
last summer, and people in the town start getting really
murdered by someone in a fisherman's jacket with a hook.
And so, who you're gonna.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Call ghost Busters?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Mate?
Speaker 2 (13:59):
You call?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
You call the people from the original movie.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
You survived, because they know what to do.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Julie and Ray So Jennifer of Hewitt reprises her role
as Julie James up to a studio. Yeah, oh my god.
If Freddy Prince Junior reprises his role as Ray you
pick up their lives.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah, thirty years after so good looking they are both.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I also okay, this is.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The point where I cannot deal with how good looking
Freddy Prince studio.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
It was so emotional in this because the movie itself
is for the first half anyway fine, silly fun. Yes,
there's a bit of gore. I personally don't think that
was at all gory or scary. It's very calm, it's
very camp. I saw a few people in out like you,
and a few people in our roy were like jumping scared,
so maybe that might happen.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Because I'm a big horror movie fan, but I am
one of those people who like genuinely get scared, and
horror movies like I can never watch one by myself.
I have to like really build myself up to like
watch one because I genuinely get like I invest so
much emotion into it, so I genuinely get scared. So
it is one of those like slasher movies that it's
a lot of jump scared. It's not like creepy, eerie.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
It's like very like oh oh yeah, and a lot
of silliness in there.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
So I got very emotional kind of in the midst
of that silliness. See Jennifer love Hewett and Freddie Prince
Junior back on our screens in these characters that I
love so much. I started cheering and clapping my.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Head in so good And even though like Jennifer Love
Hewitt's line of saying no one loves Nostyle Jar, I
was just like ah.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Also, one of my most iconic lines in the original
is when she yells out what are you waiting for?
To taunting the killer and she reprised that the movie too,
and I was like, literally I was on my feet
clapping my hands. So I love that. There's some other
little surprise cameos in the movies that I won't spoil
for anyone, but a tear did come out.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I just ie a tear. I literally there was a
certain cameo where I literally like blocked everyone's view because
I think I kind of stood up and looked at you, yeah,
and I was I was like, I just needed to
see your face during that moment.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Listening it happened oh yeah, so much. Altho, I'm sure
like no one else in the theater wanted maybe up
cheering and clapping as much as I was. But guys,
it was such a moment. So I'll say, obviously it's
you should go and watch the original. I know what
you did last summer, and I still know what you
did last because I think they really hold up as
these like also they're a bit camp thrillers. This new one,
(16:15):
this twenty twenty five version is a bit sillier, but
I think also just more of the time, it's like taking.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Also the piss out of like slasher movies in general,
which like a lot of them do like scream and
stuff like.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
That, and a lot of the dialogue I think is
very like I think it's gonna date quickly, and I
don't do that in a bad way. It's gonna date
very quickly because it's very like of this moment.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, but like if it's giving nuptials.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yeah, I know, Madly Client what a scene stealers. But
her character, yeah, from Outer Banks, you would know her.
She's a real scene stealer in this as Dan car
even just something like the Rede rap songs and stuff,
they'll play.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
It was.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It was very of the moment, and I love that.
In saying that, without giving away any spoilers, I just
need to say one thing to the people who created this.
I know what you did last summer movie. Okay, how
freaking dare you? Is all I'll say to that about
the ending. The ending, first of all, way to steal
(17:07):
from Scream. And I've never thought that these two horror
franchises crossed. I thought they existed in their own worlds.
I will say there's a twist that is.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Melb because I haven't seen any of the original film
e of those two movies. Yeah, so those two movies.
I was like, Oh, is this the same movie?
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah, yeah, exactly exactly. And so I feel like the
ending was a huge cop out. I think they stole
elements from Scream. And I also think that they did
a huge, huge, huge service to the original story and
the original characters. And I know they did it for
shock value, but at what cost? At what cost? And
I just think that they shouldn't have done it. And
(17:46):
I'm really angry, and I've had thirty years to build
this up, and I just feel like they've trashed my
childhood of watching slasher movies, and I didn't love it.
So I'll just say that in the ending, when you
guys watch it way it's now, and I will just
say there's a little end credit scene. Yes, stay for that, Yes,
because holy hell, that was amazing. The end was like
(18:07):
pure gold, pure gold, and pure nostalgia for like die
hard fans of the person they brought back in that
last moment, and also really set it up for a
sequel to this new movie, which.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I did not expect exactly. I mean, I thought it
was gonna be a one and done and.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Obviously I know I'm scream at the ending, but obviously
I'll be the first one to go and see that
movie when it comes out. But yeah, I'm just gonna
say I loved being back in that world. I loved
seeing especially Jennifer love Hewart back on the screen. To
anyone who's people were being really nasty about her body
on the red carpet, and to that, I say, shut
the hell up. How dare you say anything about that woman?
And she looked perfect and she is cheap, it is perfect,
(18:43):
and I just everything. Yeah, I can't, I'm not here
for that. Yeah, don't say anything about her and I'm
very much looking forward to where the next movie goes
from this sequel, but I also just think ending was
a cop out. But the movie is fun, so I know.
We did last summer in cinemas now also watched the originals.
It's all I said.
