Episode 061 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Yer a tosser, Harry!

Today’s Theme: Harry Potter. We’re the Crucio of podcasts.

Our first topic is what the Mirror of Erised would show you. Betcha can’t guess what Lex voted for. It starts with a B and ends with a J, but doesn’t end with a Happy Ending. *rimshot* Low-hanging fruit, ladies and gentleman. We’ll forever grasp for it. ❤️

Our second topic is the biggest differences between the books and flicks. Great question, Ken. It’s not like any of us haven’t read the series (if at all!) in over a decade. Would it have been too much for you to ask what happened on page 293 of Prisoner of Azkaban?

Our third topic is how Warner Brothers would do a gritty reboot of the series. Why are you giving them these ideas, Art? Didn’t the world suffer enough with the Snyderverse? Then again, Bruce Wayne is an orphan… Harry Potter is an orphan. That’s gold, Jerry! Gold!

Our fourth topic is where the Sorting Hat would drop yo ass at Hogwarts. Jeff’s preference is House Stark and we’re not sure how to break it to him. Meanwhile, Producer Kenny would like to wind up in the house where you’re most likely ti live off someone else’s dime. That sounds like Ravenclaw to us!

Our final topic is really sticking it to that b-word J.K. Rowling: what would an Americanized-Harry Potter production look like? Matt’s childlike whimsy was forever tainted when she vetoed the casting of Robin Williams as Hagrid. Perhaps it’s time for America to give those Brits another lesson…
