That Aged Great (YouTube channel) does a two part video on that one. It’s fantastic.

Half the reason I love Drop Dead Fred so much is because my wife hates it so much.

My mother used to call me a mean name and tell me she was quoting the movie. She thought it was funny. I’ve never seen that movie, but I don’t like it.

That’s plausible (lots of mean names are bandied about in the movie) and your reaction is understandable. I’m sorry for bringing up the memory.

Buddy of mine grew up on it and loves it, so we watched it. No idea what the fuck I watched lol weird movie

No disagreement here! I watched it a few times as a kid. I probably would feel similarly to how my wife does if I had first seen it as an adult.

You need to listen to the “How Did This Get Made?” podcast episode about this movie and the follow up the next week. Two if the hosts, Paul Scheer and June Diane Raphael, are married and she loved the film as a child. Their other host Jason Mantzoukas sides with June and June’s BFF Casey Wilson sides with Paul.
It’s an insane episode as everyone is friends and they all have written scripts for films/TV. It gets so heated Casey and June didn’t talk much for a year after it.
It’s totally worth the time to listen to.

I haven’t really had time or enough commitment to listen to a podcast in a long while, but if I can find either I’ll give this a shot, as it sounds interesting. Thank you!
