Cetus-Lupeedus? More like Vega-Omega! Zenon is back in this trilogy-capping bit of completely incomprehensible nonsense. Count the Zs in the background, wonder why everybody hates Cassie, and mourn the loss of bully-Margie in this film that posits the ultimate question--is Zenon the most important person in the universe? 

Greg is easy to get over Major, Margie becomes a main character, and everybody else has been recast. Sounds like another disappointment minor from the DCOM sequel (ahem, Zequel) machine. 

Cetus-Lupeedus! The Space-Stay has been inky since Lutz-the-Klutz put that viral disk major into the main memory core. Now it's up to troublemaker Zenon, new boyfriend Greg, and bully Margie to save the day before Microbe (and the hunky leadsinger Proto Zoa) can perform the first ever rock'n'roll concert in space! 

Have you ever felt neglected by your parents? Was your art teacher super cool? Do you have a genius best friend who seems to be in need of child protective services? Then you may relate to Jamie Grover, sister of the Grover Quints of Milford! 

Why is Eddy's dad like that? How did he get married? Why are all of Eddy's friends awful? What is the...appeal...of this film? Cameron and Hannah get to the bottom of it in this episode about...what else?...the queer-coded DCOMS of yesteryear. 

Ryan Merriman, the reigning king of DCOMS, stars in this film about a girl who can talk to dolphins. We talk James Whitmire, Mischa Barton, Dean from Gilmore Girls, and more in this episode. 

Ever been a merman? Do mermaids usually have electrical powers? Why is he so sticky? Cameron and Hannah get right down to it. 

Is Cosmo Cola a red flag or a green flag? What kind of life does a gasbag live? How would you go about attaining a body if you were a gasbag? Windsurfing is cool. 

Do you have a Movie Mason in your life? What would you do to catch the Phantom of the Megaplex? Are movie theaters dead? Is this movie scary? 

Hannah and Cameron talk about the amazing creature designs and bizarre plot choices of this truly unhinged Disney Channel Original Movie. 

Sara Paxton replaces Kimberly J Brown in this fourth entry in the Halloweentown franchise, where the Cromwells continue their reign of terror on the undeserving pumpkinheads of the world. 

The continued saga of how the Cromwell witches are the architects of their own demise. Cameron and Hannah talk about unusual pacing, unclear political messages, stupid characters, and the ongoing jokes about Grandma Aggie's bags.

Did the Halloweentown set disappear? Can we find it at Gort's house? Do you just have to avoid the word "apart" forever, or is there more to it? Headphones would have been good information for the kids in all the years the grandmother was absent. Has nobody attempted the spell to open the gate...ever? Marnie is a hacker, and Kalabar has a son! 

So begins Hannah and Cameron's coverage of the Halloweentown franchise. How does it work? How old is Aggie? What's the deal with the mom? How does the magic work? 

In this episode, Hannah opines about the most awkward kiss in the history of cinema. Cameron demonstrates his science history knowledge. Stephen Tobolowsky talk, opinions about lunch room announcement, and more. 

Cameron and Hannah talk about vampires, moms, and Sabrina in this conversation about the Disney Channel Original Movie Mom's Got a Date with a Vampire. 

Can a movie be plagiarism if it steals from every movie? Hannah and Cameron talk about the 2002 Halloween movie The Scream Team, a bizarre and philosophically confusing film starring a member of Monty Python and a performance from Tommy Davidson that feel's like a witch's curse. 

Cameron and Hannah discuss what makes the 1998 film Brink! so memorable to the elder Millenials. Is it the hot soundtrack, the sick skating, the anti-corporate messaging, or the nice conversation between a father and son? We talk about Aristotle, selling out, good fathers, and cool brothers. 

Hannah and Cameron talk about Under Wraps, the first official Disney Channel Original Movie, and its remake, Under Wraps.  What changed in twenty-four years? What stayed the same? Is one of them better than the other? What is Under Wraps...about?  Hannah has a lot of burning questions about Mummies. 

The hero's journey, and the stakes have never been higher.  This movie seems to think women are only extensions of men.  Gunther has sleep apnea.
