In the premiere of So I Married a Millennial, Jeremy introduces Lauren to the gloriously unhinged 1985 John Hughes β€œclassic” Weird Science β€” a movie about two 15-year-old boys who build a sexy AI genie woman using a computer, a Barbie doll, and absolutely no understanding of how computers work.

Lauren has... questions. Like, Why is Robert Downey Jr. here? Why is the internet a bowling alley? Why does Lisa have godlike powers? And why is everyone okay with the fact that she’s actively grooming children?!

This episode includes:
 🧠 A deep dive into 1980s techno-magic logic
Β πŸ‘Ύ AI ethics (but make it horny and neon)
 🎭 Robert Downey Jr. without veneers
Β πŸ’„ A lingerie montage featuring actual children (???)
πŸ’₯ A surprise missile β€” because, why not?
🐷 And yes, Bill Paxton turns into a literal turd monster.
