This week we start our Halloween fare and we couldn’t do it without a splash of Tim Curry so we are covering the 1990 miniseries, It. It may not be quite as scary as the new version but it is twice as nostalgic and Tim Curry as Pennywise is extra iconic. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

We are nearing the end of summer of obscurity and we couldn’t possibly wrap it up without reviewing David Lynch’s Dumbland.

This week we finish up the short lived comedy that followed Twin Peaks, On the Air. It was a wild ride and didn’t follow the conventional rules of comedy. Was it successful? Maybe not entirely but we were glad to get to watch it regardless. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support
