    Ep 324: "Broadcast News" Revisited

    “I’ll meet you at the place near the thing where we went that time.” Yes, 1987’s Broadcast News had quite a script, and quite a cast led by Holly Hunter, William Hurt and Albert Brooks. A lopsided love triangle, the three leads mismanaged emotions, insecurities, careers, and work timelines throughout the James L. Brooks hit. Nominated for seven Oscars, the movie skewered both modern love and ethics in media. But now, decades later, does it all feel like yesterday’s news? Is a male “dumb blonde” as offensive as a female one? And are either of these two guys good enough for Hunter’s Jane? The Old Roommates give the rom-com a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Pop on some Nicaraguan boots and join them.

    Ep 323: "In & Out" Revisited

    Kevin Kline and an Oscar-nominated Joan Cusack have a gay old time in 1997’s In & Out. Back then, the comedy was a modest hit with critics and audiences as it juggled social commentary and slapstick humor while tackling a (then) hot-topic theme: homosexuality (gasp!). But now, decades later, should we leave this Frank Oz flick in the closet? When are “gay jokes” funny? And should Kline’s character consider pressing charges against Tom Selleck’s entertainment reporter? The Old Roommates revisit all the Macho Man madness through their middle-aged lens. Pop on some Streisand and join them.

    Ep 322: "The Fugitive" Revisited

    “The Fugitive” RevisitedA one-armed man wreaks havoc on the life of Dr. Richard Kimble in the 1993 film, The Fugitive. Based on the 1960s TV series, the movie pulled out all the cinematic stops and became a runaway hit, making nearly $370 million at the box office. The Academy soon followed, garnering the Harrison Ford flick with several Oscar nominations and a win for Tommy Lee Jones. But now, decades later, is this cat-and-mouse thriller a little cheesy? Does Dr. Kimble have the worst lawyer in film history? And why does U.S. Marshal Gerard (Jones) look so darn adorable in an old winter hat? The Old Roommates bust The Fugitive out of DVD jail and give it a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Get on the bus and join them!

    Ep 321: Wild Things" Revisited

    Kevin Bacon and Denise Richards bared nearly all, respectively, in 1998's Wild Things. Yes, the steamy, sexy, swampy thriller left no champagne bottle unturned. The movie was a modest hit with audiences and critics, thanks, in part, to a promised threesome scene with Richards, Matt Dillon, and Neve Campbell. But now, decades later, were audiences the ones getting screwed? Was Campbell the best casting choice for a girl raised in a swamp? And what's Bill Murray doing in this thing? The Old Roommates set sail and give it all a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Hop on a gator and join them.

    Ep 320: "Waiting for Guffman" Revisited

    Nothing may ever happen on Mars, but back in 1996, a lot was going on in the fictional town of Blaine, Missouri. Christopher Guest wrote and directed the mockumentary, Waiting for Guffman. Featuring the talents of the Catherine O'Hara, Eugene Levy, Parker Posey, and Fred Willard, the movie made it on over 40 major critics' Ten Best lists for the year. But now, decades later, must the show on? Is Corky St. Clair's wife, Bonnie, truly happy? And why on earth was this rated R? The Old Roommates grab a front row seat and give this cult classic a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Grab a Blizzard from Dairy Queen and join them.

    Ep 319: "Flowers in the Attic" Revisited

    "Flowers in the Attic" RevisitedOh, brother...and sister. Yes, back in 1987, there was plenty of pearl clutching when the film adaptation of V.C. Andrews' Flowers in the Attic hit the screen. For better or worse, the PG-13 flick toned down the incestuous vibes of the novel. Back then, it was mostly for worse. Critics and audiences were turned off. But now, decades later, was the subtler approach the right choice? Is Corrine the worst movie mom ever? And how grey should a kid get before bringing him to a doctor? The Old Roommates head up to the attic and discuss it all through their middle-aged lens. Grab a dusty cookie and join them!

    Ep 318: "The Greatest American Hero" Revisited

    Believe it or not, we're revisiting that beloved 80s TV show, The Greatest American Hero. Though it was only on for three short seasons, the William Katt led comedy soared thanks to it's Superman-like premise, practical effects, and an insanely catchy theme song. But now, decades later, were we high? How many times can Ralph take on Russia? How many times can Maxwell (Robert Culp) be kidnapped? And what would be the real challenges of dating a - albeit clumsy - superhero? The Old Roommates search everywhere for flying instructions as they revisit the show through their middle-aged lens.

    Ep 317: "It Could Happen To You" Revisited

    Cop Gives Waitress Million Dollar Tip was the oh-so specific original title of Andrew Bergman's rom-com, "It Could Happen to You." Released in the thick of summer back in 1994, this sweet little flick didn't stand a chance against The Mask and True Lies. But now, decades later, does this Nicolas Cage and Bridget Fonda matchup deserve a second chance at love? Could you resist Stanley Tucci in a bath towel? And would Rosie Perez have gotten some award love if this had been a December release? The Old Roommates revisit all these "what ifs" through their middle-aged lens.
