Resolutions

(Recorded on October 22nd, 2023) This week we’re talking “Resolutions,” the sixteenth episode of My-So Called Life. It’s a new year and we're ready to party like it’s 1995! Everyone in Three Rivers is resolved to do something: Angela says she won’t do Jordan’s homework anymore (girl, really?); Rickie want’s to find a place where he’ll really fit in (ugh Rickie, don’t make us cry); Brian wants to stop obsessing over Angela (get a hobby other than perving then); and Sharon wants to stop having sex with Kyle (we support this). Patty wants to be less of a nag and Graham vows to tell Hallie that he won’t do the restaurant with her—which we thought he already did a few episodes ago. Mr. Katimski has given up coffee in the year of our lord, 1995, and boy was this a bad time to do that. With Angela no longer doing Jordan’s homework, she signs him up for peer tutoring and he’s paired with none other than Brian Krakow and just wait until you hear how Jordan pronounces that. Hallie convinces Graham to help her look at potential restaurant spaces and we learn that Brad hates these two as much as we do. The heart and soul of the episode is Rickie—nothing sarcastic to say here folks, unexpected, we know. Rickie leaves the Chase home after a week, thinking he’s not wanted. With no where to go he tells Mr. Katimski what’s going on. Mr. K, who should be in the running for teacher of the year, does his best to help Rickie. While things don’t go quite as planned, Rickie eventually ends up in the right place. George thinks it’s weird that Graham talks to Hallie on the phone like he’s some giddy school girl; Meaghan doesn’t understand how Sharon uses a Brad Pitt movie to get hot for Kyle; and we make our pick for the most stable relationship in Three Rivers—it’s definitely not Patty and Graham.
