Still Buffering

It's been one of Sydnee's biggest dreams for most of her life, and now we're realizing it's also a little queer we think: it's Supermarket Sweep! Sydnee has always dreamt of how she'd sweep, so it's finally time to discover why this show has meant so much to her and why we all can't stop watching it.

It's finally here, the day Rileigh has been not so patiently waiting for for the past three weeks: the day she forces her siblings to spend an hour talking about RED with her. It's been one of the biggest album debuts of all time, and Taylor Swift (and Jake Gyllenhaal) have been all over the news and social medias recently, so let's get into it!

Well, it's a classic movie from Teylor's youth that is worthy of discussion, but that doesn't mean Rileigh is happy about its leading man. It's that time of year where we all join together to sing badly about Jake Gyllenhaal, but I guess for this week we'll talk about a good movie of his.

Boy bands were all the rage back in the 90s, mostly the classics like NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys, but Sydnee somehow had a boy band obsession from before she was probably even old enough to be listening to music: the New Kids on the Block. Syd loved everything from their fashion and personalities, to of course, their catchy hooks and beats, so let's dive in!

This movie defined an entire generation of young theatre tweens, including our very own Rileigh. A literal cup had such a grasp on Rilo and all of her friends that it was her only personality trait for a solid half decade, so we have to see what it's all about. Also acapella.

Once again, we're taking a journey back to the era of "angry girl" rock, where the songs were great and the outfits were just so, so 90s. Come join us!

Rounding out our spooky season spectacular here on Still Buff is a classic from Sydnee and Teylor's youth that has crossed over into the new generation of Netflix reboots: it's "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" We have lots of thoughts on the various spooky stories and also the tiny leather bag of coffee creamer (?) so let's get into it before spooky season ends!

To continue our spooky season series, we're diving back into a Halloween classic, "Hocus Pocus!" Even though it came out a whole 7 years before Rileigh was ever born, it was still just as important in her youth as it was for her sibs, so let's get spooky and get into it.

CW: This movie series is about, well, death. So if discussions of death and dying aren't comfortable or safe for you and your mental health, we suggest taking a week off and joining us again next week.

These movies became classic horror films that continued to manufacture some of the wildest graphics and death scenes, and almost all of them have some weird sentient water probably dripping on an outlet. It's Final Destination!

It's a classic show older than our youngest Smirl sibling with a classic Halloween special that's been around just as long. It's the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror! Treehouses of horrors? Treehouse of horrorses? We aren't really clear on that part, but let's dive into the spooks to kick off the Spooky Season!
