Speaker 1: I am all in again.
Speaker 2: Oh that's just you ma.
Speaker 1: Yillmore Girls Gazette with Amy Sugarman and Danielle Romo, an
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 2: It's time. It's time for episode three of Bunheads.
Speaker 3: This one is not bad. So it's the season one,
Speaker 3: episode three and here it at the wind air Day,
Speaker 3: June twenty fifth, twenty twelve. Should I give him a
Speaker 3: little synopsis?
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. I didn't love this episode as much
Speaker 2: as I love the first two. I'm just gonna say it.
Speaker 2: And what's interesting is it was directed by Kenny Ortega,
Speaker 2: which kind of blew my mind. But yeah, tell everybody
Speaker 2: what's in the episode. I just did not love it
Speaker 2: as much as I love the first two.
Speaker 3: Well, the first two were dramatic cliffhangers.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: This one wasn't so cliffhanger, but.
Speaker 2: It was still pretty good. Yeah, Fanny tiny cliffhanger, which
Speaker 2: we'll get to tiny tiny.
Speaker 3: Fanny gets unexpected news from her attorney, while Hubble's car
Speaker 3: troubles leave Michelle stranded at a reclusive neighbor's house. Meanwhile,
Speaker 3: young dancers compete in an Ugliest Feet contest.
Speaker 2: Even in the synopsis, you're like, not a lot happening,
Speaker 2: not a lot happening. Steven Eckolet played the neighbor, and
Speaker 2: he's really really cute. We'll go out of order, but
Speaker 2: he's very cute in it. And here's what I was
Speaker 2: like perplexed by. He's very cute, he's very charming. They're
Speaker 2: sort of having a thing and then it's just like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: I have a girl coming over.
Speaker 1: Bye.
Speaker 2: Yeah. That was very very weird, and I don't think
Speaker 2: he ever comes back. I think that's it for him
Speaker 2: and Bunheads. It's like so weird.
Speaker 3: Also, we noticed in Gilmore Girls that there was a
Speaker 3: lot of ties to the Wizard of Oz, and I
Speaker 3: felt very Wizard of Oz e.
Speaker 2: Because there was the.
Speaker 3: Road, Yeah, the forbidden road with the man that lives
Speaker 3: by himself that nobody talks about and no one sees
Speaker 3: because he is.
Speaker 2: Weird.
Speaker 3: I don't know, like it was.
Speaker 2: Just casted this show. This episode was a little for
Speaker 2: me because I first all, I was exhausted by the
Speaker 2: the like stupidity of like you're on a private road,
Speaker 2: I can't move the car. It's like is that even real?
Speaker 3: That felt very Gilmore though, like with the the toa
Speaker 3: guy that wouldn't.
Speaker 2: The police, and she's very exhausting. It's like, can we
Speaker 2: just push the car and stop this nonsense? And like
Speaker 2: we knew she was gonna hike up the hill. But
Speaker 2: then I was like, she's like, get your breath, girl,
Speaker 2: before you ring the doorbell, Like she's so out of breath.
Speaker 2: And I just was like, and he's like decantering the
Speaker 2: wine for so long. I'm like, dude, what And he
Speaker 2: was all cute. He was a little christopherish. Did you
Speaker 2: think Steven Ecklet reminds me of Christopher?
Speaker 3: He could have played comparison. I didn't, but that's interesting.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to let that resonate for a second.
Speaker 2: He could have been Christopher. My next thing was, I
Speaker 2: will say I did get a goo a little giggle
Speaker 2: that she said, Okay, I think they're talking to the
Speaker 2: you know, lawyer, money guy whoever, Jerry, you know whatever,
Speaker 2: his like actual title.
Speaker 3: I still think that's who Michelle should be with, because
Speaker 3: they're kind of I kind of like that maybe.
Speaker 2: But first of all, it totally tracks for me that
Speaker 2: Hubble would immediately call and put everything in her name.
Speaker 2: Like I didn't find that as shocking as everybody else.
Speaker 2: I was like, Yeah, that feels about right for Hubble.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I found that weird we talked about
Speaker 3: in the last episode, but just weird, kind of like
Speaker 3: how you felt about the car in the in the
Speaker 3: Forbidden Road.
Speaker 2: But here's what I loved about it, the shout out
Speaker 2: to Whiskey Peetez. Did you hear her say that? I
Speaker 2: think she said she like threw up at Whiskey Pezez
Speaker 2: or something. First of all, if anybody has ever driven
Speaker 2: to Vegas, Whiskey Peetz is like iconic because basically, so
Speaker 2: if you're driving from California to Nevada, you pass Whiskey Peets. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's like and there's two weird stops prim and then
Speaker 2: there's one other which I can't remember, so no, because
Speaker 2: that's still California. So you get to Nevada and there's
Speaker 2: like two tiny, tiny, tiny little mini towns that have
Speaker 2: gambling in a one random hotel, and like they're very
Speaker 2: old now, like there used to be outlets at one
Speaker 2: of them and those are shut down now. Basically I
Speaker 2: think there might be like one store open in there,
Speaker 2: and one of them had the roller coaster. Does anyone
Speaker 2: Whiskey Petees is the one with the roller coaster.
Speaker 3: No, it's not.
Speaker 2: It's like, actually, there's Whiskey piece on the other side.
Speaker 3: It might be so Weirdly enough, this past summer, I
Speaker 3: did stop in Prim on the way home front.
Speaker 2: You go into the weird outlets where there's only one story.
Speaker 3: Did I did? I went into the weird outlets because
Speaker 3: I was trying to kill time with the baby.
Speaker 2: Was there a store open that we went into?
Speaker 3: Old Navy?
Speaker 2: It's the only is it truly the only store still
Speaker 2: there there?
Speaker 3: And they're still very and they're packed, which is who Yeah,
Speaker 3: they're packed.
Speaker 2: No one told me the outlets are basically like shut
Speaker 2: down that you go in there and there's like I
Speaker 2: was just there filled with stores June.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Whiskey Pets is in Prim. Yeah, yep, sure is.
Speaker 2: And weirdly now I'm just seeing if I can make
Speaker 2: a resume.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Bufalo Bill's has the roller coaster, which I think
Speaker 3: you've been on that roller coaster? Am I making it up?
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills and Whiskey PiZZ are somehow connected, though, because
Speaker 2: when I google Whiskey Peetes, it takes me to Buffalo
Speaker 2: Hills forty four dollars a night. Forty four dollars a night.
Speaker 3: I have Gamma.
Speaker 2: Is that roller coaster open? I can't never see that
Speaker 2: roller coaster going.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: I feel like Easton has been on there, but maybe.
Speaker 2: Everybody's been on there at some point. I mean, not
Speaker 2: making like most people with bravery. But yeah. She totally
Speaker 2: gets a shout out to Whiskey Piece, which I you know,
Speaker 2: it says the prim Malls closed, Danielle, and I swear
Speaker 2: to that I was just there. Oh it opens at ten am,
Speaker 2: so open at ten am. Wow, let's see what I
Speaker 2: mean now, I need to know what stores are still
Speaker 2: in there.
Speaker 3: There's definitely an Old Navy, And the reason being is
Speaker 3: we stopped there because we had to kill some time
Speaker 3: before the baby's next nap, and we were just walking
Speaker 3: around walking around, and we're like, oh, let's go into
Speaker 3: Old Navy and get him some clothes. So we shopped
Speaker 3: at that Old Navy. I do know that that.
Speaker 2: There's some sort of art thing going on there. Literally
Speaker 2: on the website, it doesn't even give the stores. That's
Speaker 2: how much I think there's not very many stores. But
Speaker 2: I'm glad you've got in there and got some stuff
Speaker 2: at Old Babe.
Speaker 3: It's the only place I went to so the other.
Speaker 2: Respect old Baby right now because they have blankets for
Speaker 2: sale for ten dollars and they're actually cute. So anyway,
Speaker 2: we got off track here. But that's how this episode
Speaker 2: is not great because then there's just a bunch of
Speaker 2: like feet photos going on. Yeah, all the girls are
Speaker 2: taking photos of their bunions to get the ugliest feet.
Speaker 3: I'm a very only fans of them, but yeah, a feet.
Speaker 3: It was very wiki feet.
Speaker 2: Or on wiky feet.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: The fashion is not.
Speaker 3: Great, no no. And Michelle's fashion, specifically.
Speaker 2: Jeans and the cowboy boots, it was like very strange outfit.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a dance type outfit, but I just was like.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, oh, Michelle's outfits do not cut it
Speaker 3: at all.
Speaker 2: Oh. I was more perplexed by all those cuckoo clocks
Speaker 2: and the clown thing. A lot of clowns.
Speaker 3: Happening, multiple clowns, multiple cuckoo clocks.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 2: Like multiple cookie jars.
Speaker 3: It's it is go more on on crack. It's crazy.
Speaker 2: It's too much of Fanny worrying that Michelle's gonna like
Speaker 2: kick her out to the curb.
Speaker 3: It's like I would worry about that. I found that
Speaker 3: like the only part of the show.
Speaker 2: It's just like, oh my goodness, this isn't gonna something's
Speaker 2: gonna work out, Like it's just all it's just we're
Speaker 2: kind of like, it's just a lot of repeating it. Yes,
Speaker 2: I'll jump to the end where we do get the
Speaker 2: little teaser that Michelle has discovered the sort of I
Speaker 2: think it's like a guesthouse and you get the vibe like, oh,
Speaker 2: she's going to turn this into her house.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: And she had oh yeah, the realtor. Okay, so that woman,
Speaker 2: Kirsten Warren, she was sort of recognizable, like she was
Speaker 2: in a bunch of you know, she's done a bunch
Speaker 2: of things. She's that girl for sure. You're like, oh,
Speaker 2: there's that girl, and she, you know, brings over taco
Speaker 2: in a bag or whatever.
Speaker 3: Have you ever had that? Does that exist? Taco in
Speaker 3: a bag?
Speaker 2: It sounded amazing, I think so. I mean I remember
Speaker 2: being at Litleague games and having Fredo's with chili. I
Speaker 2: eat have nacho cheese or chili in there, So taco
Speaker 2: in a bag makes sense.
Speaker 3: I don't hate it.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I like my food quite so
Speaker 2: jumbled up. I love tacos, like, I'll do taco and
Speaker 2: a bowl, So if you can do taco in a bowl,
Speaker 2: you could obviously do taco in a bag.
Speaker 3: Yeah for sure. But yeah, the the realtor was was
Speaker 3: funny because she came in and you were like, what
Speaker 3: does this chick want? And then she just immediately immediately
Speaker 3: showed her cards.
Speaker 2: Immediately like oh boy, She's like this is too much.
Speaker 2: And then they walk the property, which that was sort
Speaker 2: of you know, I didn't mind that because it was
Speaker 2: good to see the property. She was just playing it
Speaker 2: up too much. All the problems, Yeah, whatever, And then
Speaker 2: we have a callback to that when we go meet
Speaker 2: the guy at the end of the street because of
Speaker 2: the like tree beetles or something mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Thought.
Speaker 2: And then you know, I just, yeah, I was, I
Speaker 2: was not. I just it kind of was fine. This
Speaker 2: episode's fine. The dance there's dancing happening all the private
Speaker 2: road rigormarole.
Speaker 3: We should have talked about the ballet practice because I
Speaker 3: felt so bad for Boot that whole time. Why Sasha
Speaker 3: such well.
Speaker 2: And I also was a little confused about Sasha because
Speaker 2: Sasha has the two gay dads. But then we see
Speaker 2: her mom. So I always in my mind thought Sasha
Speaker 2: just had the two dads. So now I'm assuming that
Speaker 2: Sasha had a mom and a dad and maybe the
Speaker 2: parents got divorced and then her dad met a man. So,
Speaker 2: but that was a little confusing. We saw brad Ellis
Speaker 2: from Glee on the piano.
Speaker 3: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 2: I think it's all the jobs, all the jobs that
Speaker 2: require a piano player, just don't even cast it. Just
Speaker 2: brad Ellis.
Speaker 3: Sasha's mom is very telling as to why Sasha is
Speaker 3: the way she is.
Speaker 4: That, I will say, so true, true, Yeah, And then
Speaker 4: like that was kind of that there wasn't really any
Speaker 4: kind of Gilmore girl like person in it.
Speaker 2: There wasn't like a Rose or didn't get Rose. Greg
Speaker 2: Henry greg is his real name, now I do, Mitch,
Speaker 2: I know you And somebody though shout out to somebody
Speaker 2: commenting on Instagram about how good Greg Henry was in Scandal.
Speaker 2: I totally agree, and it made me want to rewatch scandal.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I think I need to start
Speaker 2: that again.
Speaker 3: I will say, not a lot of people knew that
Speaker 3: Mitchen was the bartender until you said it. I wasn't
Speaker 3: the only one.
Speaker 2: So many people, so many people didn't know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I had no idea until you told you you
Speaker 3: said it, no idea.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: I and somebody really egleized McGee. I really saw that. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And also, who is the woman coming over to have
Speaker 2: drinks with the millionaire? I don't know. Yeah, it was
Speaker 2: just weird. I felt like there was a shout out
Speaker 2: to menopause in this episode ahead of its time. It
Speaker 2: knew menopause was going to be the hot new thing.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Michelle ce Sasha dancing and kind of understands like, oh,
Speaker 2: her home life.
Speaker 3: Is not yeah, and she escaped her house like to
Speaker 3: just dance. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then she found the guest house and bump bump bum.
Speaker 2: Obviously that's where she's gonna move. But we'll get that
Speaker 2: in the next episode.
Speaker 1: So you know.
Speaker 3: My annoying callback was at the end when she was
Speaker 3: pouring a glass of wine into the decanter and taking
Speaker 3: ten hours. I'm like, that wasn't funny the first time
Speaker 3: with the guy in the big house. Please don't bring
Speaker 3: it back.
Speaker 2: That was my only drink wine. But have you ever
Speaker 2: decantered wine?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 3: What is the It doesn't take that long.
Speaker 2: It's to let him breathe or what are you doing?
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you let it, when you let the wine breathe,
Speaker 3: it essentially like accentuates the flavors of the wine. That's it.
Speaker 3: It doesn't like change it drastically, but it just lets
Speaker 3: it air out. And I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's like you're pouring the one bottle to the other bottle.
Speaker 2: Then you got to pour from that bottle to the glass.
Speaker 3: Oh, lots of dishwashing, I.
Speaker 2: Would say, more than drink wine. This episode made me
Speaker 2: want to have taco in a bag, talco in a bag.
Speaker 3: I we should try, we should take bag on Instagram.
Speaker 2: Let's do it. Emma, Emma, producer, Emma, time to make
Speaker 2: talk go in a bag?
Speaker 3: I want to talk go in a bag.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you can eat it. You'll be the
Speaker 2: lucky one.
Speaker 3: That's great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this was first of all butt heads is fine,
Speaker 2: but this wasn't the best, which I understand. Look at
Speaker 2: episode three is probably never going to be the best
Speaker 2: because you want to do your best episode one. Then
Speaker 2: you really want episode two because now I'm hooked, so
Speaker 2: I'm coming back for episode four. Yeah, and you ever
Speaker 2: have to have more of a dud. It would be
Speaker 2: episode three.
Speaker 3: And look, I mean sometimes you need an episode that's
Speaker 3: filler to set up the rest of the season. So
Speaker 3: that felt very much like they were setting up some
Speaker 3: things like, obviously, this guy in this big house, the
Speaker 3: Wizard of Oz, is going to be something.
Speaker 2: I don't think he ever comes back. That's what's weird.
Speaker 2: You're lying. No, I'm pretty sure that's it, but I
Speaker 2: could be wrong, but I don't think so.
Speaker 3: Well, the seven Acres of Land, you know, something come
Speaker 3: out of that.
Speaker 2: You know, there's found We're getting We're starting to know
Speaker 2: the girls a little bit more. All right, So what
Speaker 2: do I give it. I'm going to give it a
Speaker 2: seven duels in the kitchen that swiveled I did like those?
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, I'm gonna give it seven. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: actually you took seven out of my head.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3: I will say seven taco in.
Speaker 2: A bag O good one. Totally fine, totally fine. So
Speaker 2: that's Bunheads. What is our out? Bun Heads out, bun
