Today's episode of Weekend at Bergman's is the season one finale, baby, and it's a battle of the trash canon titans! The two best movies currently in the trash canon face off and only one can make it out! Representing the arthouse is Sight and Sound's "greatest film of all time," Chantal Akerman's 1975 Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du commerce, 1080 Bruxelles; and representing the mainstream is Tim Burton's 1985 Pee-wee's Big Adventure. Will a three-hour movie about chores beat a zippy, 90-minute Hollywood classic? Or will Paul Reubens and his amazing bicycle take down the unrelenting Jeanne Dielman? Listen to find out, as the boys close out season one with the third co-founder of Forever Dog, Alex Ramsey!

STAY TUNED FOR SEASON 2 UPDATES!

We're all gonna die someday, baby - but what was it all about? Did I matter? Did I make a difference? Did my endless devotion to immersive theater leave behind the legacy I envisioned? Did I spend a little too much time fixated on my dog's sexual habits? These are some of the questions Brett and Joe answer as they watch two films that ruminate on life and death - the way we spend our precious time, and the inevitable end we all meet. Representing the arthouse is Charlie Kaufman's 2008 directorial debut, Synecdoche, New York, and representing the mainstream is Adam Sandler blockbuster Click. Will Happy Madison productions stand a chance against Kaufman's postmodern brilliance? Listen to find out!

An eight hour livestream in honor of Brett's 40th birthday. Part 2. With special guests Jaida Essence Hall, Heidi N Closet, magician El Ropo, 9 to 5 writer Patricia Resnick, Joe and Jenah Silver, working actor Andrew Block, and Andy Warhol (Brett Davis).

Representing the arthouse, it's Andy Warhol's eight hour continuous shot of the Empire State Building, Empire (1965). Except that it's impossible to get a copy of Empire because the Warhol Museum keeps it under lock and key. So instead we watch Andy Warhol's Minion (2022), an eight hour continuous shot of the Universal Studios Minion. And representing the mainstream, it's 1980's all-time great workplace comedy 9 to 5, directed by Colin Higgins, written by Patricia Resnick, and starring Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton, and Dabney Coleman. Which will win and enter the canon? Which will lose and enter the trash canon and Brett and Joe can never watch it again for the rest of their lives? Listen to find out!

Horror month concludes with a couple of grizzly slashers about the horrors of American city planning and murder weapons that you can get at your local hardware store! Representing the arthouse is Abel Ferrara's new wave, grindhouse nightmare, The Driller Killer. And representing the mainstream is Bernard Rose's 1992 supernatural slasher, Candyman. Which movie will enter the canon and which movie will enter the trash canon, never again to be watched by Joe or Brett?!? It's a mad painter versus a man made of bees in this thrilling conclusion to the Weekend at Bergman's horror movie month!

Doctors, islands, cabinets, oh my! Horror month ramps up with a battle between two heavyweight flicks that both use the same sort of syntax! Representing the arthouse is the German, expressionist classic from 1920 The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. And representing the mainstream is The Island of Dr Moreau, the infamously disastrous production that yielded one of the most entertaining horror movies ever made. Will Brett and Joe immortalize the cinematic masterpiece that Roger Ebert called "the first true horror film?" Or will the guys canonize the delightful mess that only a Hollywood production with two directors and an aging Marlon Brando could create? Listen to find out!

The Driller Killer vs Candyman
