Year: 2022
Screenplay by: Oren Uziel, Dana Fox, Adam Nee, Aaron Nee
Based on a story by: Seth Gordon
Director: Aaron Nee, Adam Nee

Show notes:
This month’s episode is slightly longer than usual because we need the time to get into which of these films is better than the other. Spoiler: it’s the first one. The first one is better.
The ‘Fabio’ who is mentioned is Fabio Lanzoni. Fabio is famous for being, among other things, a prolific romance novel cover model. You can read more about him in the Guardian here: https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2015/jul/15/fabio-confessions-original-male-supermodel.
We mention the films Step Up (2006) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462590/), Magic Mike (2012) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1915581/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), 21 Jump Street (2012) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1232829/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0), Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001)(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0243155/), The Jewel Of The Nile (1985)(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089370/) and Body Heat (1981)(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082089/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0), and the TV series Only Murders In The Building (2021- )(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12851524/) and The Office (US version) (2005-2013)(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0386676/). The gay rom com we have already covered on the podcast is Single All The Way (2021) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14315756/), which is the subject of our 11th episode.
Next month we will try to watch Bros (assuming it is available to watch in our jurisdiction by the time we need to record) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9731598/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1).
We record these episodes over the internet. Sometimes the audio is not perfect. We apologise for that.
