Intro Skippers

It: Welcome to Derry on HBO Max is a series that ties together It, It: Chapter Two, The Shining, and probably a lot of Stephen King stories, despite not being directly based on any book. 

In this episode, we break down how the series connects to King’s wider multiverse, including cosmic horror elements, Pennywise, and ties to characters, timelines, and mythology across his works.

Prequels are hard, but the juice does seem to be there, despite a known scaredy-cat/ nostalgia hater as one of your two co-hosts!

In this episode, we break down “The Chair Company” on HBO / HBO Max from Tim Robinson, master of chaotic cringe comedy and now, suspense? Would this show make sense if you’ve never seen I Think You Should Leave? What is a Tim Robinson character, at its heart?

Welcome to Intro Skippers — the movie podcast hosted by Kim Horcher and Jason Charles Miller, where we deep-dive the streaming entertainment worth skipping the intros for!

In this episode, we discuss Zach Cregger’s highly anticipated follow-up to Barbarian, Weapons (2025). We explore the small features that make this dark, layered thriller so haunting, from its mysterious 2:17 symbolism to hidden Easter eggs, fan theories, and the other ways it could have easily gone.

FINALLY. We’re diving deep into Netflix’s animated film Kpop Demon Hunters —K-pop, action, supernatural adventure, and derpy tigers: this movie has it all. We’re unpacking the cultural references, details, and how Sony missed out big time on Rumi, Mira and Zoey’s first movie.

Conan O’Brien got the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at a very, very weird time in history, when the Kennedy Center, free speech, and the concept of comedy are all at major points of flux and controversy. So anyway, the show opens with a m@$turb@ting bear. 

Conan is a comedy hero for many reasons to many people, and this special, which won an Emmy, expresses that so many ways over. Kim and Jason break down the balance between subtle and overt political comedy, the concept of “dumb-smart,” silliness, and cynicism.

Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE is the Netflix docuseries following the formation of Katseye, the global girl group from HYBE and Geffen. It narrows down thousands of girls, to tens, to the final 6, and it definitely doesn’t want you to call it K-Pop (even though Kpop is a huge compliment and definitely the style they were going for, but we digress).

Did you watch Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE? Did you agree with the audition and show tactics used? Do you think any shows with a fan vote are 100% honest?

We talk about this, the realities of living in Hollywood, what it’s like to work on projects that never see the light of day, and a Cyberpunk party. It will make sense if you listen.

We are sharing our guilty pleasure watches of the summer, but who picked what?! Welcome to Wrexham and the Great American Baking Show both have their roots in both America and Great Britain, and features celebrities doing stuff they wouldn’t normally do, between Ryan Reynolds, Rob McElhenney, Zach Cherry, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, and Paul HOLLYWOOD (whoah, another coincidence). 

What do you watch that’s out of character for you? Let us know!

Sirens on Netflix is a miniseries starring Meghann Fahy, Milly Alcock, Julianne Moore, Kevin Bacon, Glenn Howerton, and more. It’s nominated for awards, but is this ultra-wealthy soapy limited series worth the watch?

Surprisingly, Jason has seen the whole thing and explains it all to Kim, who will decide if it’s something she wants to see! What did you think of Sirens? Would you see it?
