Episode Description
Episode Notes
Rewatching the TNT modern classic, Lemuel and Amity watched The Shawshank Redemption in a new and novel way – with forethought from beginning to end. Sometimes Stephen King writes a damn fine drama and this is one of those times. Also helpful, nary a woman to be seen, so nary a female character to mess up. We discuss the pitfalls of marketing and what makes a cult classic.
If you haven’t watched this in a while – or if you haven’t seen the entire thing from the beginning, do yourself a favor, turn on TNT, it’s probably on sometime in the next 48 hours – watch it all the way through and then listen in.
Recommendations: Schitt’$ Creek available on Netflix.
