Bryan and Joe check out Hellbound Hearts , an anthology of 23 Hellraiser stories edited by Paul Kane and Marie O'Regan. Some are good, some...are not! We're talking about our faves (a European Cenobite coming of age! A slut shamed nun! A puzzle solving vigilante!), as well as the mixed ones that intrigued ( Prey comparisons? Stockholm Syndrome?

Terry and Joe are trying to figure out the difference between sci-fi and fantasy as they return to the Lynch side of the podcast to discuss his big budget studio effort, Dune (1984). Despite issues with the voice-over narration, the compacted back half and too many characters, we don't actually mind this one. The costumes are wild, the FX is good, and we want more of whatever is going on with Baby Alicia Witt. Plus: the problematic queer coding of Harkonnen, Jodorowsky's Dune , and a silver lini...

Jenn, Gena, and Joe have reached the penultimate episode of Fatal Attraction ...and we've never had less confidence in the show. Despite the solid cliffhanger involving Beth and Alex and the extended flashbacks to Alex's childhood, it's all too little, too late.

Sharai and Joe love 'Tether' which touches base with every character on the show, addresses the emotional fall-out from living in this town, and seemingly sets up the rest of the season.
