Yep, okay, yeah, 39 00:01:52,404 --> 00:01:55,244 Speaker 3: I'd watched like all the episodes as a kid, and 40 00:01:55,484 --> 00:01:59,364 Speaker 3: I was get a little inebriated one night with a 41 00:01:59,364 --> 00:02:01,444 Speaker 3: friend and I saw it was on a streaming service 42 00:02:01,524 --> 00:02:02,884 Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh my god, let's watch it. And 43 00:02:02,924 --> 00:02:06,364 Speaker 3: it was so stupid. The plot was so beyond dumb, 44 00:02:06,484 --> 00:02:08,444 Speaker 3: like they steal a drinking glass from a dine or 45 00:02:08,483 --> 00:02:11,844 Speaker 3: two press of high school basketball team. The oldest son 46 00:02:11,924 --> 00:02:14,244 Speaker 3: returns it and is thrown in prison, and there's a 47 00:02:14,284 --> 00:02:18,164 Speaker 3: court case over like a drinking glass, and I became 48 00:02:18,204 --> 00:02:20,804 Speaker 3: obsessed with the moral panic behind the show. And then 49 00:02:20,803 --> 00:02:23,844 Speaker 3: I just started recapping shows and movies just to I 50 00:02:23,884 --> 00:02:26,404 Speaker 3: wanted to rewatch them from back in the day. And 51 00:02:26,483 --> 00:02:29,964 Speaker 3: I was having a blast just kind of, you know, 52 00:02:30,084 --> 00:02:32,084 Speaker 3: showing people the things I tell a friend if we 53 00:02:32,084 --> 00:02:33,844 Speaker 3: were watching a show and people seem to enjoy it. 54 00:02:34,004 --> 00:02:36,244 Speaker 1: Yeah, what have been some of your favorite Hallmark movies? 55 00:02:36,244 --> 00:02:38,084 Speaker 1: Because I know you've enjoyed those enormously. 56 00:02:39,483 --> 00:02:42,284 Speaker 3: You know. Netflix has become the new Hallmark when it 57 00:02:42,324 --> 00:02:46,204 Speaker 3: comes to rom coms and Christmas movies. So I actually 58 00:02:46,204 --> 00:02:49,844 Speaker 3: have done a lot of Netflix Christmas movies and rom comms, 59 00:02:49,884 --> 00:02:53,004 Speaker 3: but it feels like Hallmark because they are so bad. 60 00:02:54,844 --> 00:02:57,564 Speaker 3: I have loved every time Netflix comes out with a 61 00:02:57,644 --> 00:03:01,323 Speaker 3: Christmas movie. I am so down and any all these romances. 62 00:03:01,363 --> 00:03:03,964 Speaker 3: They have these rom coms where a woman falls in 63 00:03:04,004 --> 00:03:07,644 Speaker 3: love with a guy in the UK and he's British, 64 00:03:07,684 --> 00:03:11,804 Speaker 3: and it's just it's she just do very British things. 65 00:03:11,844 --> 00:03:14,124 Speaker 3: It's almost like someone googled the country and made a 66 00:03:14,124 --> 00:03:17,124 Speaker 3: whole movie around it. And they're so popular. They become 67 00:03:17,244 --> 00:03:21,044 Speaker 3: the most watched shows and movies on these streaming services. 68 00:03:21,043 --> 00:03:23,244 Speaker 3: And I get a kick out of it. 69 00:03:23,684 --> 00:03:26,003 Speaker 1: There was an Australian television show in the eighties called 70 00:03:26,043 --> 00:03:29,203 Speaker 1: Return to Eden and it had It was a wealthy 71 00:03:29,803 --> 00:03:32,124 Speaker 1: woman who falls in love with a young, handsome man. 72 00:03:33,124 --> 00:03:35,123 Speaker 1: He tries to kill her by pushing her into croc 73 00:03:35,164 --> 00:03:38,564 Speaker 1: infested waters and he thinks she's dyed, but of course 74 00:03:38,564 --> 00:03:40,884 Speaker 1: the bandages around the face.
