Ring out the old year, ring in the new...ring-a-ding-ding.  

Five elements in Chinese philosophy. Five rings in the Olympic logo. Five Great Lakes. And now FIVE seasons of Spro and Lee Take on the Academy. Coincidence? Or the sinister mechanisms of a malevolent universe?  You be the judge.  

Kimmel cracked wise. Emma Stone cried.  No one was surprised.  This was the 96th Academy Awards ceremony. 

Just in time for Oscar weekend, Spro & Lee bring you their takes on the 96th Academy Awards.  

Spro & Lee finally dish on Barbenheimer, adrenechroming, and all manner of scuttlebutt from the year of our lord, 2023.  

The boys welcome Robert Ruggeri, Spro's longtime friend and a producer on Jeff Nichols' Take Shelter. The three talk about the cocksure confidence of youth, making movies in the great state of Ohio, and minimum quotes.  

Spro & Lee land the plane that is season five with their second discussion on scripts - reading, writing, and evaluating them - and in the process, a Hollywood institution is relieved of one of his four Oscars. It's season finale time.   

Spro & Lee caught up with their old friend, Emily, who spent a good portion of 2023 on strike. 

The Oscars have always favored socially important dramas, bloated biopics, and history under glass, but Spro & Lee say "What about comedies?"  

Spro & Lee step in to mediate the legal termination of Laura Dern's best supporting actress Oscar from 2020.  They tried their best to get her some visitation rights, but no dice.
