Where saving money meets dramatic flair — this week, we go “over the top,” and not just with our frugality.
In this theatrical detour from budget-savvy tips, the hosts deliver a riotous breakdown of Hollywood's mostflamboyant performers. From actors who dramatically overdo it — cue David Caruso’s sunglasses pause and Beth Dutton’s verbal thunder — to those who elevate exaggeration into pure art like Al Pacino and Nicolas Cage, this episode is equal parts roast and reverence.
What’s Inside:
Segment 1 – When Extra Goes Off the Rails: A sarcastic celebration of those whose intensity spirals into unintentional comedy. Think: Shatner’s underwater soliloquies and Titus Welliver’s chair-sitting philosophy.
Segment 2 – Go Big or Go Home: A tribute to the icons who make drama delicious — Walken’s haiku-like pauses, Cage’s Southern-fried declarations, and Farley’s hurricane energy.
Frugalocity’s Signature Touch:
A charming detour from the usual frugality, showing that once you save enough money you can sit around and make fun of goofy actors given your stress-reduced lifestyle. Who says being Frugal can’t be fun?
