Join me as I take a deeper dive into mermaid films past and present, exploring merfolk in romance, comedy, horror, and kids' TV specials clearly made to sell toys.

7. Mermaids: Swim Into Your Power

This week we found this hidden treasure: 2003's mermade-for-TV film (read: rejected TV pilot), Mermaids. Three sisters avenge the murder of their father by a greedy fisherman, but find out pretty quickly that it's hard out here for a fish. I'll explore the film's mythological connections (and there's a lot), how one character's story closely resembles that of another mermaid we all know and love, and how this mermaid tale is a bit more Charmed than H2O. Plus, a brief look at the history of the supposedly family-friendly television network this film debuted on. Let's just say I had questions by the end of it. // Visit the all-new Mermaid Movie Club homepage for updates and more: http://mermaidmovieclub.tumblr.com / Follow me on Twitter and Instagram: @mermaidxandria / Like Mermaid Xandria on Facebook: tinyurl.com/xandriafb / Please rate and review on Apple Podcasts!
