• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Bunheads recap, Season one, episode four, Better Luck Next Year.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Airdate July second, twenty twelve.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Feeling about Bunheads in general, this episode is all right,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: is good?
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I like this entertaining.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: This is what I think about Bunheads as I'm four
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: episodes in. It's entertaining, and it satisfies, like Gilmore lust.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I would say, like, if you're really needing some Gilmore,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: but you're like, I've watched so much Gilmore. It does satisfy.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: It's like an appetizer to Gilmore. Right, You're like, it's
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: it satisfies the palette a little bit. It's not up
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: there to par.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree, it's it's good filler, but it
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: does not took me as Gilmore Girls did. I do
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: have one thing that literally makes me want to crawl
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: out of my skin when I watch this show, and
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: it's the fashion, but specifically Michelle always wearing Toms.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, I just the fashion is not good.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: You know, you know those Tom shoes. I feel like
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: they're the kind of tom with this generation. I had them,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: so like I I Toms.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: I liked the concept. Are they still around? I liked
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: that they gave a pair every time you buy a pair,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: exactly like those socks that that sock company does that too,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: So I like that. But like, oh, I'm not into
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: like Esper drills anymore, and I feel like Tom's are
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: like kind of like Espa drills. Yeah, They're just not
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: gonna get my feet and they support.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I know I need my hope, a lot of cushions.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Grandma, Grandma Danielle, and I know.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I just need something to protect my knees.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Literally wear Hokah flip flops like they're cool and.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: They're not happy you like them now.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I made three pairs. You made me buy them.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Amy. We were stuck in Carmel for something and Amy
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: forgot her walking shoes and we were right by a
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: shoe store and I was like, you have to just
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: buy hokahs.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: You're not cute.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: We was protesting it so hard and like, just put
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: your foot in them. I bet you you're gonna like them.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: And I have not had plant or fascy eis since
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: since I stitched hookahs, and I had to get rid
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: of my croc flip flops and switch to the hokah
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: flip flops. They're not even flip flops. They're like slides,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: and they're crazy monstrosities. But yeah, I just lean in,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: lean in, ladies. The heels are so yesterday. We had two,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: we had three Gilmore spottings and it kind of fun
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: little ones. Brad ellis the piano player always uh. We
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: got Greg Henry back.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Again, Mitchem yep and Biff Jaeger.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: What was Biff's character in Gilmore Girls? You know, he's
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: like the construction guy. That was a top Thank you
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: so much. So this was the scene though that kind
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: of was cringe tastic. We'll get to it. We'll just
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: go through this real quick for you guys.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Oxnard.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: First of all, I can't wait to get to the
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: cringey moment. So it's kind of a decent episode. Michelle's
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: got the guest house. There's like she's got tons of crap,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: which I don't That didn't track for me, Like she
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: had this like tiny apartment in Vegas. Why does she
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: have all this crap? I don't know, And like I
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: just don't know and I feel like you could just
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: call one eight huder. Goot, John can get rid of
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: that crap pretty easy. But I know they're, you know,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: penny pinching a little bit. But I thought it was
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: totally crazy when when Fanny just bursts into the guest
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: house in the middle of the night.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: I know, ignore this because I would going to.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Say they've gotten over the death way too fast.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Well that yes, but also, like Fanny is an elderly woman,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I like to sleep. I don't know one grandma that
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: does not like to sleep.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I actually think that is there are some grandmas that
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: barely sleep. Grandma's just sleeping a few hours. I don't know.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: I would like nine hours, ten and I get like seven,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Not that anyone cares, you know, y'all tell us how
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: much you're sleeping. Hopefully you're getting your eight hours. I
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: only got like seven last night, and I kind of
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: want to take a nap right now.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I'm a I'm an early to go down early to rise.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: My problem is, I think what I can't tell that's
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: happening to me right now is am I hungry? Am
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I thirsty? Am I sleepy? Or do I just have stress?
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Because I'm a little bit like I'm not feeling great,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: but it's fine, I'll work it out at the guest house.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: You know. Then we went to the farmer's market with Boo,
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: and here's my critique on this scene. I like the scene.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I felt that the acting was not great. I felt
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: like the mom and Boo were reading the script with
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: a lot of lingo in it, and they were not
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: acting it. They were kind of reading it. It just
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: felt a little weird to me. Although the farmer's Market
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: looked good and there were some yummy things, I'm not told. Look,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: the body image stuff is tough in this because you
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: want to be like it's just like you're sort of like,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: I get it. It's it's you have to address it.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: The show's about ballet, but it's just rough. It's just like,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: let this girl.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I know her, like going into the fridge and getting
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: broccoli and then see the king and you know it's Yeah,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: that was tough to watch. And also the noting that
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: every time Boo had to put on a different wig
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: or a different outfael or whatever for the audition, and
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: it's you know, Fanny was saying, Oh, it's because she's
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: larger than all the other.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Girls, which I also appreciated because it's addressed right, Like
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Fanny addressed it in a way where she was like,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: they will see her if she keeps going back in,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: meaning see you know, like the deeper see her.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: So it's sort of it's a storyline that I actually
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: was like, oh, this is a conversation I want to have.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: But also it's a little bit like, oh no, do
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: I want to happen?
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah it is, oh no. But I think the moral
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: of it was that a lot of you know, people
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: who are good at their craft but may not be
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the cookie cutter version of that craft, you know, like
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the dancer with the beautiful long limbs and you know whatever.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think even the twelve years since this
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: was made, it would be done differently now. Yeah, but
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I actually like that they don't just go over it.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: It's like it's really on the right half.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I think I liked that scene that the because Fanny
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: was in you know, no, no, no, no, you are
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: going to get seen right Yeah, the cake and the broccoli.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: That kind of lost me. I'm not gonna lie, but.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: The mom got the cake already.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's tough.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: I also had full agita because the fridge was hot
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: and the gas stove and sun and that just made
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: me so uncomfortable. I did laugh a little bit in
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: the scene where Emily Emily see this is gonna happen
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: the whole time, just like let us where Fanny wakes
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: her up and she's hung like towels over the window
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: because she doesn't have the curtain of Yeah. So I
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: was like, there was some little details that I.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Thought really good like her, like with the rod shaking
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: all the time, that was the fakest. It's like, it's
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: not a million pounds. You don't have to like struggle.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Like a bar bell, right, and it's like it doesn't
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: wiggle the life that. There was a bunch of things
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: on that that I'm like, really and also truly, I thought,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: truly on the clothing store, she's sort of the kirk
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: of this because suddenly.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: She oh my god, I wrote that down is truly
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: the kirk. You're so right.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Did you think it was weird? Like I thought the
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: scene of her in her underwear was like a little weird.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, it wasn't my favorite.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: It was like a little bit like, do we just
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: need to see how like cat Skinny. I don't know.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: I was like, what are we doing? And then it's
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: a little funny that she bumps into the students. Yet
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: I'm like, there's no point to this.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there was no point to it other than she
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: needs to hang up the rod.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Just there was no point to it other than to
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: see how tall sutt and Foster is.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Yeaheah, I don't know.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: That was weird. Uh, a lot.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Of ballet, I will say the book. Since we were
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: talking about Truly, I do genuinely like Trulli's character. I
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: think Truly and Fanny, which is Emily Akadi. Yeah, those
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: two characters are what's doing it for me and keeping
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: me in.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: I'm in for Sasha too. I really like the girls,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: and I think that was another problem with this episode.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: We only had Boo and Sasha where the other main girls.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Yes there were ballet girls, but the other two sort
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: of main girls were not in it, which I thought
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: was super weird considering it was the auditions for the Jeoffrey.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: But maybe they did an audition. I don't know.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about Sasha for a second, because I feel
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: like we're finally seeing a different side of her. That's
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: actually who she is versus a front that she puts up.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Right, She's got this chip on her shoulder and she's
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: real prickly, but yet she's super kind and stole the
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: money to buy the toe shoes. Yeah, here's my problem
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: with Greg Henry. The makeup is tough for me. It's
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: almost like they splotched dirt on his face. Like it's
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: just weird.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I feel like he's supposed to be like a grimy dude. Though.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the scene was a little bit weird and a
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: little bit funny where they're like ordering the sandwiches and
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: it's just kind of weird and like he doesn't want
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: to have this restaurant open, and it's just sort of
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: like it's very quirky characters of Stars Hollow, but yet
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: they're not totally nailing it. It's like a little off.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: But everything. Look, this show is really good. It's just
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: it's a little bit off from Gilmour Girls. Yeah, and
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: then the whole like they've sent a fox.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's because there's no like that cell phones.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Then there's no Graham, there's no little Guy, there's no
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Rosa and Boo are supposed to be Rory.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, the whole facts bit and the cold canceling
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: if we don't fix the floors and then look, the
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: cringey scene for me was that she went into the
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: hardware store and tried to like flirt to get the
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: floors done. And it was a little funny against an
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: easy bit funny and a lot of cringe.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: For me, I was like, it was funny with one guy,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: and then she did it again, so they should have
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: just stopped it after that. Although I do love that
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Emily was able to swindle guy.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: The other guy smart, right smart, and they go in
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: the weird car. There's just so much sort of like
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of like filler, filler, filler whatever. Truly,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: you know, she makes the curtains, truly's got a bunch
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: of jobs. She gives a little background. Oh there's a
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: great Jason Priestley shout out, which was yeah, yeah, fun
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: we you know, Boo gets the shoes, the whole thing,
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: and then we have the auditions. You know, all is
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: kind of right in the world. Did it have a
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: cliffhanger like it didn't.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: No, just just that the Jeoffrey auditions happened.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that Boo doesn't get it.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Boo doesn't get it, but she seems like she's all right.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Kind of getting placement on where the town is because
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: it's obviously so close to Oxnard and OHI for me
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: it was more normal.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: It was funny that they were trying to who was it.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Emily was trying to say, like, oh, hi was the
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: grossest place when we all know, yeah, is the most
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: beautiful place in.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: The entire roh. I know.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: I found that actually kind of funny.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like move the auditions to OHI like that's,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: I know, pretty great. Oh you know what another sort
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: of like cringey yet knock cringey is is Michelle's dance
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: audition dream for Gary Jeannetti.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I think I purged that from my brain.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: You are so bright. That was bad. That was bad.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Button Foster. She's a huge Broadway star, but like it's
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: a little Broadway ish in Gilmore Girls, you know, so
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: in Bunheads, like the whole like it's a lot of yells,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: hayms and like me and my shot out, you know
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: whatever she's singing and you're just like a why, uncomfortable,
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: what's happening? And just alone it's just like, oh, I
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: don't know, it feels weird.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it did feel weird. I guess that's the cliffinger
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: is she has this dream and then at the end
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: of the dream she gets the cake that Boo Boo's
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: parents got her or mom got her. That says better
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: luck next year, not even.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: One two of the sort of numbers, and like, I
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: get it. She's so talented. She's like, probably want a
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: tony I don't know, but like for me, I was
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: just like, er, I'm uncomfortable.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: You guys to be the a hole that brings that
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: just has to say it this suthing Foster doesn't do
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: it for me.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, it's okay.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Sorry, I agree with you.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: She did not do it. Even when I watched this
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: the original time, something was always off with her that
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: she right sides. In younger, she's a lot better in younger.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: There's still some sort of like cringed tastic moments, but
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: she's a lot better in younger, And I think maybe
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: it's just because this is her first TV show, Like
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: she is sort of a stage actress, and I think
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: that's why you get the over the top ness so
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: much where you're like down by that girl be Rory,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: like Alexis Bladell is so understated that I think you
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: want to get Sutton. Foster is a lot of jazz hands,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: a lot.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Of jazz hands, a lot of boxnards.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: A lot of yeah, you know, it's very me.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: The series is still young. Yeah, I think she can
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: turn around for me.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: The breakout of Sasha because she's crazy and she goes
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: on to do I think the affair. She's really good
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: in that. I think that's these all have gone on,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: uh to do other things that are quite good. But yeah,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: do we rate this? I don't even remember. Do we
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: rate this?
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: We did we do? I'll say seven out of ten.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: Broken wood floor planks, okay, okay, uh six and a
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: half better like Next Time Cakes. Yeah, yeah, I think
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: it gets better.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: I think the first two are really good. We've had
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: two that are kind of and I do think it
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: picks up there.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I'm here for the you know, I'm here
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: for the show, guys, I'll be watching in every episode.
