Franchise Frenzy: The Meatballs Series

This time on the Notes From the Back Row podcast, Carlo and Dan are back with another film series in their sub-series.... Franchise Frenzy!

 🎵 Are you ready for the summer? 🎵

We are! And we're talking about Meatballs, Meatballs Part II, Meatballs III: Summer Job, and Meatballs IV: To The Rescue. The original is a Canadian classic that launched the film career of SNL alum Bill Murray, the sequels are... varied in quality let's say. With multiple sequels in name only, and one misguided attempt to return to an original character, we dive into the lake that is the teen-sex genre and figure out which of these four movies are worth watching. Listen in, right now!

A new episode of Notes From the Back Row will be released every other week. If you have a new movie premiering, drop us a line – we might be interested in setting something up with you too!
