“They’re selling burner phones at Home Depot.”
This week, Molls is joined by her friend and actor/writer/director Ryan Bailey to discuss the true crime Lifetime Original thriller, The Craigslist Killer.
Listen to find out why this movie threw Molls into an emotional funk, the patterns Megan McAllister should have realized before getting engaged to Phillip Markoff, how he has forever ruined pockets for her, and how Billy Baldwin fares as a Boston Detective. (more…)
“I didn’t see any coke in this movie.”
This week, Molls and her friend Jason Shapiro take a walk down memory lane while they discuss this unauthorized behind-the-scenes Lifetime story of the show we all loved as kids – Full House.
This movie presents many questions, some revolving around possible Sliding Door moments: when Bob Saget was cast as Danny Tanner instead of someone else, if the show got canceled early on, and if John Stamos really told Candace Cameron Bure to go toward the Christian life if she felt so inclined. How different would our lives be had these moments not happened? Listen to find out what the pair think about these questions and where the film lands on the MMISWP Rating Scale. (more…)
“It’s so weird revisiting what “woke” was in the 90s.”
Ira Madison III joins Molls this week to discuss She Cried No, a quintessential 90s made-for-TV movie that premiered in 1996.
This flick has everything you loved from the 90s – a fantastic soundtrack, classic college parties, and a cast including famous teen idols (namely Candace Cameron Bure, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Jenna von Oÿ, and Nikki Cox). Tune into hear why this film is in the lead for the “Tori Spelling Lifetime Lifetime Achievement Award” and for a nice “where are they now” moment.
“Nora Roberts watched four episodes of The Wire and wrote this.”
This week, Molly and her friend Lindsey Weber cover Northern Lights, the 2009 made-for-TV film based on the book by Nora Roberts.
The pair discuss the murder mystery/love story that takes place in Lunacy, Alaska – everything from the top-notch casting decisions (this is, after all, the film that brought together LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian) and the amazing graphic effects to the dramatics that can only happen in a small, remote town.
“Watching movies like these will change the way I date.”
This week, Molly invites her pal Karen Kilgariff (co-host of My Favorite Murder) to discuss Drew Peterson: Untouchable, a movie that only took 17 days to film!
Not only did we get to see Rob Lowe play the completely creepy Drew Peterson, we also were blessed with a younger Kaley Cuoco as Stacy Peterson, Drew’s 4th wife. This and other gems like real snippets of actual television interviews with Larry King and Matt Lauer, you have to listen now to find out why this film earned our highest rating (so far) on the MMISWP podcast!
“I was so hungry transcribing this movie.”
Molly and her guest Alison Rosen step back into the 90s and watch A Secret Between Friends, a Moment of Truth movie. You can find this one on YouTube, but don’t read the IMBD description if you don’t want a spoiler!
With its star-studded cast (Linda Carter, Josh Taylor, and hello, a young Ryan Reynolds!), typical teen shopping montage, and a BFF journey that toes the line between friendship and infatuation, this flick is definitely filed under the classic Lifetime movie category. Cross our hearts and kiss our elbows!
