Failure to Launch is BACK with one of the most divisive, confused, dare we say Baffling™ pilots we’ve seen Crispin Glover try on jeans during.

Nicolas Cage, Crispin Glover and a slew of other teenagers bring us many, many, MANY vignettes of life as a 1980s All-American teen; a life that’s often musical and only occasionally involves serious property damage and/or existential despair.

Also, Jackie Mason’s there, playing a character with the last name ‘O’Reilly’. We’d tell you more but, honestly, we’re still not totally sure what this thing was.

Crispin Glover definitely tries on jeans though. That happened. We think.

Technical note: Failure to Launch now comes with Podcast Chapters! Aside from dividing the podcasts into neat little packages, you’ll also get to see a different still from the pilot with each chapter. If this new format gives you any trouble, please please please let us know on Facebook or Twitter (@consumptionthe) and we’ll try to sort something out.
