Cult Movies Podcast Anthony King Celebrating underseen films, lesser-known gems, and unrecognized masterpieces maligned and panned by audiences and critics alike. Based on Danny Peary's books. Damn It, Degrassi! Damn It, Degrassi! We’ve been mindless Degrassi fans since Drake was wheeling around at the bottom. We were there when James Tiberius Yorke was unjustly stabbed, we remember when we had to illegally download Manny’s abortion episode because American audiences apparently weren’t mature enough. We know exactly when we finally respected Darcy Edwards. We talked for years about when Degrassi would tackle a heart wrenching suicide storyline; we just weren’t ready for it to be Campbell. Unlike some others we’ve also found ourselves fans of this show since the truest of Next Gen, back in 2002. That’s fourteen years of intense dedication. Quite simply we’ve grown up with this show. Sure, we might be in our twenties now, but we still get as excited about it as we did when we were just little girls. Who are we, and why has it taken us this long to finally realize that we can actually share our views and opinions with others? We don’t really know either as to why it has taken us this long, but I guess better late Texas Twiggy Emma Lehman Shelley Duvall is most known for her portrayal of Wendy Torrance in Stanley Kubrick's 1980 film The Shining , a performance that launched her into the public consciousness and furthered an already prolific career. But after decades in film, production, writing, composing, and the release of two musical albums, Duvall seemingly dropped off the face of the earth... Until a disastrous 2016 appearance on the Dr. Phil show, so maligned that it never aired. Texas Twiggy dives deep into the life and work of Shelley Duvall, with plenty of twists and turns along the way.
