Welcome to month 1 of Thor's Long Halloween. September is "monster tv episodes" or "monsters of the week" or "scary sitcom" or "spoopy boob tube"...

Here is Decider’s Spooky Sitcom Flowchart that Scarlet Witch found.

We also reference 933: Ghostwatch (BBC made for TV movie), and The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror (episodes 1044 to 1047).

Next week's episode is Are You Afraid of the Dark: S5, E7 "The Tale of Station 109.1"

SPOILERS!

We reference 1048: The Fall Guy (2024) and 1077: The Spy Who Dumped Me (2018) as some of the best recent buddy action comedy films.

As we close out August, we set the record for the month that had the most recent films in Thor's history! If you're longing for us to cover the obscure content of our youth, don't worry, September will be Monster of the Week TV episodes, starting with Family Matters: S8.E7 "Stevil".

If you're looking for another terrible movie featuring Ohio, that would be 790: Babes in Toyland (1986).

The next and last workplace topic will be Heads of State (2025).

We are joined by new pantheon member Tilly Rose! Tori writes and edits for Pajiba, Mr. Monopoly co-hosts Bad For Me.

The next Workplace Month topic is The Oh in Ohio (2006).

SPOILERS!

It's a special THORSday release! Is this the first time Thor's ever covered two blockbusters in a row while they were still in theaters?! We touch upon the unreleased 1994 Roger Corman version.

The next regularly scheduled Workplace Month topic will be Sorry to Bother You (2018).

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a new month! We kick off Workplace Month with James Gunn's Superman! SPOILERS!

For related content, check out 1012: Supergirl (1984) and Bad For Me's discussion of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 (2023).

Next episode will be a very FANTASTIC episode containing all things Fantastic 4!

Content Warning for disability horror, especially the movie's use of the r-word to describe people with mental disorders.

Mr. Monopoly co-hosts Bad For Me. Matt's various projects can be found at KittySneezes.com.

This concludes Hidden Gems month. If you were expecting The Hidden (1987), that was episode 1055. August will be Workplace Month, starting with James Gunn's Superman!

We compare the pace of this film to a classic American Western. If you like Westerns, check out our Cowboy Month in episodes 1025 - 1028.

The final Hidden Gem film will be The Baby (1973).

Thor asks what is your favorite horror movie featuring aliens (outside of The Alien franchise). If you need inspiration, you can check out these previous topics we've covered:

898: The Faculty (1998)

906: Under the Skin (2013)

Døuble Identity is back to kick off Hidden Gems month. We compare this film to 701: Jennifer's Body (2009).

The next topic is There's Nothing Out There (1991).
