The 'Burbs (PILOT)
from Today's Episode
In 1989, before the internet and smartphones, all people in the suburbs had to think about was what their neighbors were up to. Well, it's 2026, and Keke Palmer is starring as Samira, a new mother and fish-out-of-water who moves back to her husband's childhood home, only to find herself being haunted and taunted by the house across the street. In this podcast, we dont only compare the movie, but also the rise of suburban TV shows in the mid-2000s: Weeds, Desperate Housewives, Santa Clarita Diet... etc. There are a lot of familiar faces, from Jack Whitehall (Bad Education) to Mark Proksch (What We Do in the Shadows). Tune in to hear our thoughts on the best and worst moments. Welcome to Today's Episode!
