178. The Money Pit

Imagine this: you buy a house, and it's a ridiculous steal, at just $200k for like a 15-bedroom mansion! The catch: it's really run down, and you'll have to tap your monied friends and professional contacts for loans to fix it up. And so you do, and you hire some contractors who get it all ship-shape, and now you have a million-dollar home. Sounds like a living nightmare, right? So, we are apparently meant to believe, is the case for Tom Hanks and Shelley Long in The Money Pit, foolishly brought forward by Chris as part of his "home sick from school Comedy Central daytime classics" collection.
