Stay tuned for an action packed episode.
Episode 60 (S3E7) is written by Roger Slifer.
This week’s show notes are written by K. Tempest Bradford.
We open with the theme song, as always, but about halfway through Kimber’s voice yells STOP and the theme winds down like an old movie reel. There isn’t going to be a story today, Kimber informs us, because Jerrica is gone and so is Jem. Also, Kimber is wearing an outfit we haven’t seen since that time she started having lesbian sex with Stormer. Something is up.
Uh oh, she says that Jem and the Holograms will never play again.
What??
It all started 3 months ago. This episode is full of flashbacks and the characters talking directly to the audience.
Kimber starts us off. Jerrica is doing her typically terrible job of being CEO of Starlight Music. She’s fighting with Shana and Rio, snapping Kimber’s head off, screaming at the staff, and in general not being managerial material.
Kimber continues to blame herself for not seeing how stressed Jerrica was. She relates how, at a concert later, Jem is continuing with her I’m Stressed And I’m Going To Take It Out On Everyone schtick. She’s mad at Rio because his van broke down and he can’t set up the concert. Jem proceeds to try and do so herself, attempting to lift a giant speaker that’s twice as wide and as tall as she is. And she’s trying to do this in heels.
The other Holograms help out—because for some reason they can only afford one roadie—and whisper to each other about how stressed Jem is and how they are worried.
Kimber’s reminiscing is interrupted by Pizzazz, who calls her a “Holo-twerp” and tells her to come on, they have work to do.
Whaaaaaaa?
We switch to Reya, who is hanging out at the concert venue, reminiscing. She’s wearing a slightly more than usual ugly outfit. She says joining the Holograms was the happiest day of her life, but didn’t realize her happiness would be over so quickly.
She flashes back to the concert, which was apparently a double header since the Stingers are playing, too. Everyone in the audience is enchanted by Riot, including Jem.
The Stingers music video: “Under my spell.”
While singing, Riot pulls Jem on stage and does everything short of making out with her. Then immediately after, he grabs her, runs out of the building into a limo and is gone before anyone really understands what’s happening. This is bad. But, Reya warns us, it’s about to get worse.
Back in the present, Roxy rolls up in the Rockin’ Roadster and yells at Reya that there’s work to be done.
Uh oh….
We switch to Riot, who is wearing some kind of Tarzan outfit and laughing. In a jungle. While Jem lounges in a hammock nearby.
What is going on??
Riot is his typical jolly self, laughing and also addressing the audience.
“This is great. No Rio. No Holograms. I have Jem all to myself.”
Grosssssss.
He tells us that he got what he wanted, as usual, and relates what happened after he whisked Jem away from the concert.
Turns out he took her to the docks, where cruise ship awaited. The ship was bound for Mexico, and he brings Jem on it becaus…

September 09, 2016 S3E6: “Midsummer’s Night’s Madness”
Hello and welcome to the JEMcast on Hologram Radio. This is Alex Knight and I am joined Aleen Simms, founder of the Less Than Or Equal podcast, and science fiction writer, K. Tempest Bradford.
Synopsis: In Season 3, episode 6: “‘Midsummer’s Night’s Madness,’ Jem and The Holograms, along with The Stingers, travel to Greece for a concert, but when Jerrica and Jem get caught in a love triangle, the trip becomes too much to handle.”
Stay tuned for an action packed episode.
Episode 59 (S3E6) is written by Evelyn A.R. Gabai.
This week’s show notes are written by K. Tempest Bradford.
We open at the setup for a music festival in Greece, and it’s immediately a shit-show because Riot is yelling at the roadies and generally being a jerk. So much so that the two men moving an amp pretend not to know English just to mess with him, and their fake ineptitude prompts Minx to roll her eyes and say “Foreigners” in the most disdainful way.
Irony is dead.
The Holograms continue to feel superior to the likes of Minx, sucking up to Mr. Stravos, the man in charge of the Festival of Mythology, in which they’re going to perform. The ladies are excited about the big party and all the food and dancing. But their happiness is cut short when Jerrica and Rio get in a horrible fight.
A fight so bad that it ends with them breaking up and Rio storming away.
The Holograms get Jerrica to come wander Athens with them in order to take her mind off of Rio. She splits off on her own and encounters Riot. However, all he wants to know is what would make Jem happy.
Yes, Jerrica is jealous of herself. Again.
She wanders off to some ruins, muttering to herself, when Synergy appears. She wants to help, but Jerrica blows her off saying that a machine doesn’t know about love.
Rude.
Jem and the Holograms music video: “Can’t Get My Love Together.”
Jerrica hears a voice calling to her from one of the ancient temples. It’s a mysterious woman called Phaedra who says she’s the Oracle of Athens and knows all about her, including that she is Jem.
Jerrica turns into Jem and hustles back to the city.
She finds Rio looking all sad and dejected when Riot cock blocks him. Jem is all: I’m with Rio. Riot is all: You sure about that, because um… And sure enough, Minx has her whole damn body wrapped around Rio’s head.
It’s clear from Rio’s body language that he is not happy about any of this, but Jem is as bad at reading body language as she is at raising small children. She, of course, runs off in a huff, only to be pursued by Riot and Rio, the latter being chased by Minx.
This is all dull soap opera bullshit to Rapture, who wants to have fun.
Jem runs into Phaedra again and says that it’s all terrible. Jem doesn’t want to deal with any of this so she asks Synergy to change her into someone completely different on the Oracle’s advice. She becomes a dark-haired Greek woman with the super Greek name “Jaime”.
Jaime collides with Rio, who offers to escort her back to town because he feels like she’s someone he’s been talking to all his life.
Back in the city, Rapture appears and claims to be the Oracle of Athens. Despite the fact that she is trying to run this con on Greek people who surely are aware of what real oracles are actually like, she succeeds in getting a bunch of people’s money while pretending to tell the future.
Riot and Minx bust in on her act, asking if she’s seen Jem or Rio. She tells them not to worry because it’s their destiny to get whatever they want. And, like a proper oracle, she sings a song about it.
The Stingers music video: “Destiny.”
Riot and Minx run off to chase after people again and the citizens of Athens are throwing their money at Rapture. The Holograms come along and she decides to have some fun with them. Usi…

September 01, 2016 S3E5: “Homeland, Heartland”
Hello and welcome to the JEMcast on Hologram Radio. This is Alex Knight and I am joined Aleen Simms, founder of the Less Than Or Equal podcast, and science fiction writer, K. Tempest Bradford.
Synopsis: In Season 3, episode 5: “‘Homeland, Heartland,’ Jem and The Holograms along with Danse travel to Yugoslavia (now Croatia) to star in a play. When Danse finds connections to her mother, the Holograms are put into danger as enemies of Danse’s mother’s past emerge.”
Stay tuned for an action packed episode.
Episode 58 (S3E5) is written by Carla Conway.
This week’s show notes are written by K. Tempest Bradford.
Jem and the Holograms, Video, and Danse fly to Zagreb in Yugoslavia to film a video at the Zagreb Ballet. Danse is full of excitement about this because her mother was from Zagreb. Through a bit of impressive exposition hoops, we’re told that Danse’s mother disappeared many years ago. Aja worries that Danse secretly thinks she’ll find her mother in Zagreb and doesn’t want her to be disappointed.
When they land in Zagreb they’re met by Anton Milich, the government man in charge of welcoming them to the country. This man also warns them that they might not be able to film the video at the Zagreb Ballet because the artistic director, Victor Krosach, doesn’t like their music. Because he’s a powerful man, he can put an end to all their hopes and dreams.
Why this was not mentioned before the band flew everyone and their mother all the way to Yugoslavia is a mystery.
At the Ballet, Victor heaps praise on his male principal dancer, Stefan, but heaps abuse on the women dancers. He’s joined in this abuse heaping by the Prima Ballerina, Vera, who says the girls are only thinking of the arrival of Jem and the Holograms and their “decadent, uncultured noise.” Victor agrees that their music is not art and is complete shit, which Jem overhears and they all walk in.
Victor is about to tell them to all go to hell until he catches sight of Danse. He’s super shocked, Vera is shocked. Everyone is shocked. Especially when Victor does a 180 and agrees to let them film their video at the Ballet.
Why? The answer comes soon enough. During a tour of the building, Victor shows off a giant portrait of the greatest dancer he ever knew, Nadia Dvorak. Everyone gasps because she looks just like Danse! She looks just like her because she’s Danse’s mother. This is why Victor was so shocked.
It’s clear that Victor is super creepy and fixated on Danse because he was fixated on Nadia. Of course, Danse is not even paying attention because Stefan, the hunky dancer dude, is clearly checking her out and she doesn’t mind one bit.
Because Danse is Nadia’s daughter, he allows the terrible Americans to make their music video.
Jem and the Holograms music video: “Music And Danse.”
At the end of the video Stefan and Danse share a kiss and they are clearly smitten. But Danse can’t have dinner with him because she already agreed to have dinner with Victor, who cannot stop creepily touching her.
After dinner, Danse finds a note slipped under her door telling her to go to the village of Bled if she wants to know more about her family. She goes to Jem, who says that they must check out the note right away and agrees to go to Bled.
Meanwhile, in a secret room filled with more pictures of Nadia than is healthy, Victor talks to a large portrait of the woman and says that though she ran away, her daughter will never leave. Dun dun DUN!
Jem and Danse say they want to go to Bled to film and also because Danse may have family there. They ask Victor if they can take Stefan since he’s in the video, too. Victor says yes, and that he will go along, and that’s not sinister at all. Vera, the Prima Ballerina, is not happy with this situation and yells at Victor that he’s only going on the t…

August 18, 2016 S3E4: “Beauty and the Rock Performer”
Hello and welcome to the JEMcast on Hologram Radio. This is Alex Knight and I am joined Aleen Simms, founder of the Less Than Or Equal podcast, and science fiction writer, K. Tempest Bradford.
Synopsis: In Season 3, episode 4: “‘Beauty and the Rock Performer,’ Jem and The Holograms are invited to perform at a rock opera based on Beauty and the Beast in England, but when the rehearsals and photo-shoots become too frequent, Jem becomes overworked and exhausted.”
Stay tuned for an action packed episode.
Episode 57 (S3E4) is written by Clare Noto.
We open in London England, where Red Johnny Mack is having an impassioned phone conversation where he’s trying to book a concert for The Rockets. The members of The Rockets show up at Mack’s office looking to get paid, but he hasn’t come up with the money. Mack escapes the office and discovers Jem and the Holograms playing on the TV at a local club.
Harold, a concert promoter shows up with a thug to get some money out of Mack for the last failed tour, but when the put the pressure on him, he lies about putting together a Beautify and the Beast musical, starring Jem.
At Starlight Mansion, a package arrives for Jem with an enclosed letter, script, and contract from Red Johnny Mack. He invites her to star in the lead role of his rock opera: Beauty and the Beast. After reading the script, Jem tells the Holograms she’s going to do the play.
Jem and the Holograms arrive in London with Rio, who meet with Mack.
Rio: I’m surprised he didn’t kiss my hand.
Mack introduces Zero Jones, the set designer and Yoji Yakamura, a techno artist “of the highest quality. Yoji will be designing the Beast (he proceeds to demonstrate the effects he plans to build into the suit). Zero suggests the castle could be a giant power plant with a turbine engine in the living room. Jem appears to approve of the designs. Rehearsals begin the next day at 7:00am.
At Misfits Music, Eric informs Pizzazz that Jem is playing the lead role in the rock opera: Beauty and the Beast. Pizzazz doesn’t seem all that interested though, which seems odd. Eric explains that if the soundtrack is a success, it will make the Holograms internationally famous. Suddenly this piques Pizzazz’s interest. The Misfits decide to go to London.
Just before rehearsal begins, the Holograms are asked to take some promotional photos for the musical.
The musical opens with an old man stealing an electric guitar for his daughters, who write and sing music together. The Beast threatens the old man and makes him an offer: if he sends his daughter to him, he will let him go. If his daughter refuses, he will be forced into slavery.
The father arrives him with the guitar in hand, but looks incredibly sad.
Beauty: Hello, father.
Father: Beauty, where are your sisters?
Beauty: Oh, they’ll be home for dinner. Where did you get that?
Father: I have made a terrible mistake. Oh…
Beauty’s sisters fight each other for the guitar. Father explains the situation how he took it from the Beast, but he originally thought it didn’t belong to anyone. After Beauty’s sisters accuse her of being a “goody goody,” Beauty accepts the Beast’s terms to save her father.
Beast: Do I disgust you? No matter. I will win your love!
Jem and the Holograms music video: “You’ll Never Win My Love”
In anger, the beast grabs a chair and threatens to kill Beauty. They cut as some stage people tell Jem the sets need to be worked on to prepare them for opening night. Jem runs off in search for the actor who is playing the Beast, but when she finds Mack in his dressing room, he tells her he already left. Jem is excited to meet the actor in person. Mack tells Jem she has more promotion to do for the musical.
After an exhausting photo session, Jem asks to cut it short for the day. Later in …

August 11, 2016 S3E3: “Video Wars”
Synopsis: In Season 3, episode 3: “‘Video Wars,’ Clash wants desperately to become a Misfit; however, Pizzazz will not let her. Clash convinces Pizzazz to allow her be a member of The Misfits if she manages to ruin Jem’s live video performance. Pizzazz agrees and Clash comes up with a plan to disguise herself as a college student and ask Jem if she can go on tour with them for a ‘video project.’ While on the tour, she finds herself actually admiring and enjoying being around The Holograms.”
Stay tuned for an action packed episode.
Episode 56 (S3E3) is written by Cary Bates and Greg Weisman. This week’s Show Notes were written by Aleen.
We open with Lin-Z introducing Like a Dream, which we’ve seen on at least two previous episodes, but this video features Danse’s fancy footwork.
The Misfits and Clash are are watching the show. The Misfits comment that Clash’s cousin, Video, has been far more successful than Clash can ever hope to be. Clash asks the Misfits to let her record their next video, saying that she wants to be the fifth Misfit. Pizzazz calls Clash a loser and walks away.
Meanwhile, Video, Shana, and one of the Starlight girls are talking in a recording/post production studio about how much work Video has to do, as all of her clients expect her to make sure that everything is “the best.”
Meanwhile, someone’s knocking at the Misfit’s door. Naturally, the Misfits make fun of her and steal her glasses. It turns out that this person is actually Clash in disguise, and she has a master plan. Soon we see her, in disguise as “Sarah”, at Starlight Mansion talking with Jerrica and the Holograms about producing a documentary about what it would be like to be on the road with Jem and the Holograms.
The Holograms politely refuse to allow Sarah to come behind the scenes on their upcoming 3-day tour, which causes Sarah to cry because she wants to be a videographer like her idol, Video. Reya convinces Jerrica to reconsider and allow Sarah on the tour.
Later, as Aja and Jerrica are working out together, Aja tells Jerrica that she has concerns about Sarah coming along on the road. Aja mentions that she thinks it’s unwise, as the Jem/Jerrica secret may be revealed. Jerrica says that Aja is being “stubborn and unreasonable.”
Clash reveals her plan to the Misfits: she’ll “shoot the Holograms at their very worst” so she can swap it out for Video’s video on the next episode of Lin-Z’s show. Pizzazz agrees to allow Clash to be the fifth Misfit if all goes according to plan.
At 5:00 the next morning, Sarah’s up and filming Jerrica and the Holograms getting on their tour bus. She asks where Jem is, which prompts Jerrica to call upon Synergy to create a Jem hologram for the trip.
Later, on the bus, Sarah is filming the passing scenery while Jem naps in the back of the bus. Jerrica talks to Synergy and tells her to keep up the good work, Aja gets testy, and Shana comments about how Aja and Jerrica aren’t going to paint a good picture for the documentary if they keep up their bickering, which leads to our next song, One of Those Days: the video where anything that can go wrong will go wrong at rehearsals and concerts.
At their next venue, which is currently occupied by a circus, the lion tamer is having trouble getting a giant cat in its cage. Rio says he’s going to go help, something he’s totally and completely qualified to do.
Sarah says that it’s admirable that the Holograms take care of each other. While she’s talking with Jerrica, the lion gets away. Aja helps distract the lion and save Jerrica, while Sarah saves Raya. When the lion is captured, Jerrica and Aja comment that Sarah’s practically an honorary Hologram.
Later, Clash has finished her uncomplimentary video, which Pizzazz seems to like. Clash tries to convince the Misfits that they coul…

July 15, 2016 S3E2: “The Stingers Hit Town (Part 2)”
Synopsis: In Season 3, episode 2: “‘The Stingers Hit Town,’ Riot wants Jem to leave Rio for him, and Eric Raymond is willing to do anything to get The Stingers to sign with his company. Meanwhile, Pizzazz is still lovesick over Riot and has to choose between him and The Misfits.”
Stay tuned for an action packed episode.
Episode 55 (S3E2) is written by Christy Marx. This week’s Show Notes were written by Tempest.
We open where we left off last week: Jem getting kissed by Riot. He actually gets in a bit of tongue action before Jem pushes him away, saying “I can’t do this. I can’t.”
Riot is bad at taking no for an answer. He says he is the perfect man, she is the perfect woman, and they belong together. Uh huh. Jem says they gotta go.
Jem brings up Jerrica’s offer again and Riot mollifies her by saying he’ll take a look at it. As they’re driving back home, Riot says that He Must See Her Again while kissing her hand. Jem says, “How can I resist?”
Y’all, this woman flip flops more than the footwear of the same name. One second she’s pushing him away, the next second she’s all charmed by him. She seems unconcerned with his lack of consent boundaries.
Meanwhile, Rio and Minx have been club hopping, looking for Jem and Riot. Rio is piiiiisssed and ready to go home, Minx is still desperately throwing herself at him. After he tells her no for the 17 billionth time, she yells that he will never get Jem back from Riot because Riot is too perfect, then she goes home in a cab because that’s what you do when a man won’t let you climb into his pants.
At the Gabor estate, Pizzazz is stressed to hell because Riot isn’t back yet. So many people with the same feelings in this episode. Rapture says she can show Pizzazz the way to win him by doing exactly what she says. When the other Misfits object, Pizzazz shoves poor Stormer and tells her to shut up. Wow. Pizzazz is deep in.
Of course, Rapture being the sociopath she is forces Pizzazz to wear a ridiculous babydoll dress and do up her hair like… I don’t even know what to call that. She claims this will make her look innocent and pure, which will appeal to Riot. Then Rapture blends up a concoction that is designed to make Pizzazz throw up, which she then does. Why did she drink a thing that included raw eggs, raw liver, carrots, sugar, olive oil, and a “Roma” love powder? Pizzazz should be able to spot this bullshit right off, but as the first song points out, she is Lovesick.
Misfits music video: “Lovesick.”
The other Misfits peace out, as they can’t stand to see Pizzazz like this.
Minx gets back and she’s mad about Rio but her mood quickly turns to mirth when she sees Rapture putting ridiculous makeup on Pizzazz. She knows her bandmate well enough to figure out what’s going on: that Rapture is doing this just to amuse herself. So she joins in.
They get Pizzazz to cross everything–her legs, her arms, her fingers, her eyes-and chant Riot Will Love Me. There is nothing sadder than this for Pizzazz.
Riot walks in on this madness and at first is all: WTF? But then he also gets what’s going down after some silent pantomime from his bandmates and joins in. Because he’s a narcissistic sociopath as well. He tells Pizzazz she looks strangely alluring, then that he’ll see her at breakfast, and then snags Rapture and Minx to talk.
Meanwhile, back at Starlight Mansion, Rio and the Holograms are worried about Jem. Well… Rio is worried. He’s ready to call cops. Shana tells him to Netflix and Chill, but since Netflix hadn’t been invented yet Rio continues to stress.
Jem arrives home with the most insufferable attitude ever. She just breezes in saying it’s a lovely night, like she don’t know Rio and possibly a Hologram or two might have wondered where she’s been. Because he’s Rio, he gets all pissed. They have t…
