This week, we're digging into the 2001 Shakespeare adaptation, "Get Over It."

Bikini Model Academy Apr 10, 2023

Show notes

We're switching up the format a little bit this week to discuss the 2015 abomination, "Bikini Model Academy." Dana was unable to watch the movie, so Crooks and Dave lead her through the nonsensical plot and get her reaction. We examine what exactly Gary Busey is doing, wonder why a movie about teaching women how to become bikini models doesn't actually include any scenes where women learn how to become bikini models, break down Morgan Fairchild's absolutely lifeless performance, and read through an epic list of films in the IMDB Deep Dive.
