SNL UK, Box Office Cheat Codes & Euphoria S3 Drama

It has been a WEEK since we last spoke to you - The Oscars! Paddy's Day! Mother's Day! - but we will be talking about absolutely NONE of that.Instead, with the imminent arrival of Saturday Night Live debuting its UK spin-off, Kate and Rory do a deep dive on the history of SNL in the States, whether this kind of comedy can survive and thrive on this side of the Atlantic, and what we should really expect from a show that people already seem to tolerate more than actually like...After that, Rory looks into some recent news around Hollywood productions and box office rumblings. Specifically, how the head of Pixar announced that their movies wouldn't be the source for "hundreds of millions of dollars worth of therapy", seemingly forgetting that most kids are, in fact, first traumatised by cinema. The Land Before Time? An American Tail?? Bambi?!?! This also goes directly in the face of a new study that unearths what sort of movies audiences are really paying to go to see on the big screen...Following that, Kate takes us behind the scenes on the upcoming season of Euphoria, which will arrive on HBO over four years since the divisive second season. Since then, the show's stars - including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, Maude Apatow, Hunter Schafer, Colman Domingo, Austin Abrams - have become huge stars, and the show's creator, Sam Levinson, has delivered The Idol, one of the worst-reviewed TV shows of the decade. And, if rumours are to be true, things were not super chill during the production of this new third season...You can chat and interact with the Culture Pigs directly on IG and TikTok (@culturepigs), as well as YouTube (@culture_pigs), and please do like, share, comment, and rate everything you see on there.Or if you’ve got an idea for something you’d like us to do a deep dive on, email us at [email protected] Pigs is hosted by Kate Demolder (@katedemolder on IG) and Rory Cashin (@roarEcashin), and is produced by Dee Reddy for Poddle Audio (@poddleaudio).Hosted on Acast.
