Tasteless

Two movies about the course of someone's life changing due to outside influence, with a healthy dose of isolation and voyeurism thrown in — it's Oldboy vs How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

We are 150 episodes in, and this is one of my favorite pairings yet. Thank you for your continued support!

Two heist movies featuring people who have hidden motives and Ben Affleck — it's The Town vs Reindeer Games.

Everything Alexandra Holden is in, she elevates. A comedic delight who is responsible for some iconic characters in my favorite things (Friends, Drop Dead Gorgeous, Rizzoli & Isles), and who is now creating her own sketch comedy on Instagram as half of Out of Luck Show. I loved getting new insight into the dark humor behind her projects as well as discussing the unifying hotness of Bruce Willis.

Two movies about groups stuck in one spot, dealing with an inevitable end — it's The Hateful Eight vs It's a Disaster.

Two movies that explore inevitability and what hand we have in our future - it's Requiem for a Dream vs Final Destination.

Two movies about complicated maternal relationships and the opportunities that youth affords — it's Lady Bird vs Sleepwalkers.

Jamie Gray Hyder (Law & Order: SVU, COD: Infinite Warfare) took my favorite thing in the world and made it even better when she joined Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. This conversation was a delight, ranging from the direction of the newest season of SVU, to the childhood playtime vibes of portraying a video game character, to the thoughtful ways Jamie engages with social media. She is such a bright light and so funny - enjoy!

Two movies about unique perspectives, alienation, and sacrifice — it's Donnie Darko vs Compulsion.

Two undercover movies about coming to terms with who you are and the importance of community — it's The Departed vs Undercover Brother.

Halloween queen Kimberly J. Brown (Halloweentown, Bringing Down the House, Guiding Light) is my guest, so obviously we talk all things Cromwell family and the joy of Disney Channel Original Movies, but we also get into her killer crafts and having some of the all-time best on-screen families.

Spend your Halloween with Kimberly at the virtual Galaxy Con panel!
