This week we finally got to an episode that's been on our list since the very start, comparing recent poorly-conceived waste of potential Jem and the Holograms to 12-year-old Saoirse's favourite film in the world Josie and the Pussycats. Two cartoon-and-comic-to-live-action-film adaptations about unknown girl groups who suddenly hit the bigtime; two very different film-watching experiences.
Interstitial Music:
David Bowie, Drive-In Saturday
Jem and the Holograms 2015, Youngblood
Jem and the Holograms ft. The Misfits, Jem theme
Josie and the Pussycats, Pretend to be Nice
DuJour, DuJour Around The World
The Runaways, Queens of Noise
(note: while recording I thought I would use Kesha's recent single Praying; I didn't end up finding space for it here but you should all go look it up on the music streaming service of your choice because it's great.)
Menu:
- Kettle (tm) brand potato chips
- Cotton candy
