  • Season One Recap
    Feb 9 2024
    (Recorded on January 30th, 2024) We did it, we finished My So-Called Life! As George likes to say, it’s been a journey. There have been highs (Rickie), lows (Brian) and more lows (Graham). We’re closing out the season with one last episode to unleash our final thoughts. We’ll be letter grading our main cast of characters along with some members of the supporting roster. We’ve got our list of favorite and least favorite episodes. George and Meaghan will be sharing their top five needle drops. And finally, we’ll answer the question that started this whole podcast in the first place: should My So-Called Life have had a second season?

  • In Dreams Begin Responsibilities
    Jan 26 2024
    (Recorded on November 19th, 2023) Well, we’ve made to episode nineteen, the series finale of My So-Called Life, “In Dreams Begin Responsibilities.” Jordan is trying to get Angela back and much like in her dreams, he seems incapable of apologizing. He enlists the help of Brian and we get “Cyrano De Bergerac: Liberty High” (sadly not added to abc’s Fall ‘95 lineup). Brian does his best to feed Jordan some lines he can remember and Angela buys it enough to tell Jordan that now they can have “a serious talk.” Jordan, who lacks the capacity to take accountability for his actions, convinces Brian (it wasn’t a hard sell) to write the world’s worst love letter to Angela. Since Angela is in high school, the letter makes her forget that Jordan had sex with her best friend. Angela only realizes that Brian wrote the letter in the last few minutes of the show (come on girl! This guy couldn’t even spell your name right!) but still drives off with Jordan. The investors of the restaurant want Graham out of the picture but Hallie thinks that if can just cook for them, they’ll be blown away enough to forget that he’s never run a professional kitchen in his life. It works, because this is not reality. Graham and Hallie embrace for a second too long for it to still be considered a friendly hug. Patty invites her high school boyfriend, Tony Poole, to the house under the pretenses of him having restaurant experience. He’s a no show, but the 1995 version of him (Jordan) shows up and proceeds to drink every ounce of milk they have in the house. Patty, forgetting that this 30 year old sophomore slept with her daughters best friend, says that it’s “clear [he] didn’t mean to hurt her.” Like WTF, Patty!?! Rickie comes out with the help of Delia and this is really the only story line that matters to us. George gives us a very hot take on who he thinks the show is actually about. Meaghan rejects that very hot take. And we discuss the importance of LGBTQIA+ representation in media in 1995. (Original network air date January 26th, 1995)

  • Weekend
    Jan 19 2024
    (Recorded on November 5th, 2023) This week, we’ve got the eighteenth episode of My So-Called Life, “Weekend.” Patty and Graham are headed to the saddest inn this side of the Allegheny River with Uncle Neil and his surprise girlfriend, Cheryl. While packing for the trip, Camille offers Patty her handcuffs—let’s hope she sanitizes after each use. When Graham comes into the room, Patty ends up hiding the handcuffs underneath the 500 decorative pillows on her bed. Patty finally learns that Hallie is no longer engaged and you can hear her screaming internally. At the inn, Patty wants to do activities and the rest of the crew want to get drunk and abandon her to find alcohol, since they are staying at the only dry inn in the western hemisphere. Instead of ice skating, Patty spends her afternoon sitting on a couch in the common area and annoying Warren the inn keeper, a man not suited for the hospitality industry. At dinner, Patty deals with her abandonment issues by getting drunk on contraband ginger flavored brandy to prove to everyone that she’s not a stick-in-the-mud (it only sort of works). Back at the Chase house, Rickie is spending the weekend with Angela and Danielle. While he’s there, Rayanne drops by under the guise of trying to collect $6 from him (but we all know she wants to see Angela). Of course she finds the handcuffs and and proceeds to handcuff herself to the bed. Too bad Patty accidentally brought the key with her to the worst inn in Pennsylvania. Angela, Rickie, Danielle, Sharon, and eventually Brian spend the rest of the weekend trying to free Rayanne from the headboard; all that’s missing is the Benny Hill theme. We have some wildcards for our biggest winners and losers; and we are treated to a quintessential 90’s needle drop. Meaghan and George discuss the Milli Vanilli documentary (love!); Graham licking Patty’s jaw (definitely don’t love); why there wasn’t any alcohol at this inn (Warren is a buzzkill); and how we would have preferred if Uncle Neil was played by Jon Lovitz. (Original network air date January 19th, 1995)
