"Please, Lord, make me the biggest star the world has ever known so that I may get far, far away from this place. Amen." The Wives Colangelo are kicking off the Halloween season by discussing a young woman who will not accept a life she does not deserve, the titular PEARL. Discussions include the liberating excitement of seeing an adult film for the first time, the weird ways repression can manifest (like that scarecrow), how hard it is to accept when strict parents have a point, and the soul-crushing reality of your best not being enough.

30 Years of Clueless and 5 Years of This Ends at Prom
"UGH. AS IF!" Back in 2020, the recently married Wives Colangelo sat down in their Cleveland apartment to kill some time during quarantine and talk about teen girl movies. Now, five years later, in a different apartment in Los Angeles, they're returning to the movie that started it all and celebrating how it has changed culture in the last 30 years -- CLUELESS. A film this monumental deserved revisiting and a proper This Ends at Prom episode backed by the expertise forged out of over 500 hours worth of weekly film analysis.

Freakier Friday (2025)
"My face looks like a Birkin bag that's been left out in the sun to rot!" The long-awaited sequel to 2003's FREAKY FRIDAY is finally here, and The Wives Colangelo are thrilled to finally have a movie in theaters that they can cover on the show. Is FREAKIER FRIDAY a worthy follow-up to the absolute best film in the franchise, or was it another cheap bid for nostalgia that no one needed? Is a four-way body swap too confusing for audiences to make sense of, or is the promise of Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan getting to be partners in crime enough to look past the plot conveniences? This week's episode will attempt to answer all of these questions and so many more.

Now & Then (1995)
"As we grow older, it becomes difficult to just believe." In honor of the film's 30th anniversary, The Wives Colangelo are stuffing their bras with pudding, trying to find the truth about a tombstone, having an existential crisis about coming back to their hometowns, and falling in love all over again with the movie NOW AND THEN. Let's talk about the sapphic energy of Sam and Roberta, the chokehold Devon Sawa had on a generation, and why male critics comparing the film to STAND BY ME is lazy film criticism. -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT Friendship Place: https://friendshipplace.org/ -------- Social Media Plugs @ThisEndsAtProm @BJColangelo @Veloci_trap_tor / @harmonycolangelo.bsky.social.com ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

In Memory of Margo Donohue, Heaven Help Us (1985) Re-Release
"I've been kicked off the track team, and without track, my grades will be based on ...my grades." The world lost a wonderful woman this month with the passing of Margo Donohue. In honor of her life and legacy, we're re-releasing our episode with her on HEAVEN HELP US, the 1985 Catholic school boys film filmed in Brooklyn. At the time of the episode, Margo had just released the book FILMED IN BROOKLYN, all about movies set in her stomping grounds. We also read a bit from Mike McPadden's TEEN MOVIE HELL, had the chance to examine how teen boys function differently around women compared to all-male groups, and tried to figure out why we love Kevin Dillon's Rooney so much, even though he says the f-slur more in this movie than any others combined. We miss you already, Margo. For more of her work, check out the books FILMED IN BROOKLYN and FEVER: The Complete History of Saturday Night Fever, as well as her podcasts What a Creep!, Dorking Out, and Book Vs. Movie.

Light of Day (1987)
"Music is all that matters. One hour on stage makes up for the other 23." The Wives Colangelo are heading back to the Midwest for a trip, so it's only fitting that they'd cover an underrated shot-in-Cleveland story starring Joan Jett and Michael J. Fox about a pair of musical siblings trying to find their places in the world. Directed by Paul Schrader and featuring music by Bruce Springsteen, LIGHT OF DAY is an odd little slice of life in the Rust Belt that might be more interesting to talk about than it is to actually watch. ---- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHT L.A.

Dumplin' (2018)
"As far as I'm concerned, a swimsuit body is a body with a swimsuit on it." This week The Wives Colangelo are heading to Texas, signing up for a pageant to piss off our mothers, and learning from drag queens what it means to be a beauty queen with DUMPLIN'! It's time to discuss the insecurities our moms imprint on us, why seeking external validation while existing in a marginalized body is not anti-feminist, and why Dolly Parton truly is the North Star for anyone who has ever felt like they were too much or not enough. ---- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHT L.A.

Mermaids (1990)
"Charlotte, I know you're planning a celibate life, but with half my chromosomes, I think that might be tough." We at This Ends at Prom firmly believe that we never stop coming-of-age, and this Cher/Winona Ryder/Christina Ricci/Bob Hoskins classic is proof positive of that! We're cutting our sandwiches into stars, co-opting Catholic guilt, yearning after people we shouldn't, moving across the country to avoid addressing our feelings, and finally talking about one of the ultimate "watch with your mom" movies, MERMAIDS. ---- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHT L.A.

I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
"That's a shame, being that it's the 4th of July and all. Kids like you should be out having fun. Drinking, partying, running people over, getting away with murder... things like that!" Happy 4th of July to Helen Shivers, and only Helen Shivers. With a legacyquel on the way, it's time we finally talked about I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. BJ loves this movie and Harmony ... tolerates it, so for those of you who love episodes where The Wives Colangelo disagree, this one is going to be a favorite. Let's talk about urban legends, guilt keeping you from washing your hair, why Ryan Phillippe deserved a better career, and figure out where the hell all those crabs in Julie's car went. ---- Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHT L.A.

The Doom Generation (30th Anniversary)
"Ever feel like reality is more twisted than dreams?" The Wives Colangelo are closing out Pride Month by introducing Harmony to the punk rock cinematic world of Gregg Araki and celebrating 30 years of THE DOOM GENERATION. Sometimes being a teenager feels like looking down the end of the world, and no one understands that feeling quite like Xavier Red, Jordan White, and Amy Blue. Let's talk about this middle finger to American conservatism, pro-polyamory, bisexual disasterpiece.

"It's a first-year college party. Everyone's gay." This week The Wives Colangelo are joined by the ultra-hilarious D.J. Mausner to talk about their prom night comedy, PROM DATES! It's time to learn how this movie came to be, hear about the real-life inspirations behind the characters and absolutely wild scenarios these two best friends get themselves into, and honor the high school experiences of idiot pervert teenagers still figuring themselves out everywhere.

Together with The Wives Colangelo, the trio discusses repression, queerness, being filled with Christ's love, a perfectly written script, cool pastors, teenage pregnancy, and why we all wish we were as cool as Cassandra Edelstein. ---- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHT alQaws for Sexual and Gender Diversity and Queers in Palestine (https://alqaws.org/) ---- Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtProm BJ Colangelo: @BJColangelo Harmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky ---- Follow Our Guest!

It's Harmony's birthday and whatever baby wants, baby gets, so we're upgrading Amy Heckerling's LOSER from the Sadie Hawkins Dance episodes on the Patreon and bringing Jason Biggs and co. to the main show! Let's talk about why so many people misunderstand the loveliness of this story, why Greg Kinnear should be in the villain hall-of-fame for his performance as Professor Alcott, sing the praises (again) of Mona May's costume design, and debate whether or not Everclear is secretly an emo band. ---- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT alQaws for Sexual and Gender Diversity and Queers in Palestine (https://alqaws.org/) ---- Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtProm BJ Colangelo: @BJColangelo Harmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"How do you measure a year in the life?" May-usical month comes to an end as The Wives Colangelo reflect on the film adaptation of Jonathan Larson's groundbreaking musical, RENT, 20 years later. What do we do with a show that was so important to a generation that hasn't quite held up to the hourglass of time? What do we do with a show that would probably benefit from some rewrites, but is untouchable as the last work of someone who was taken from us too soon? What the hell do we do with RENT?!

The Wives Colangelo are here to discuss the weirdest interpretations of beloved musicals, Meat Loaf (the man), theater kid jokes that hit just as hard 11 years later, and why this film is criminally underseen.

John Waters returns to This Ends at Prom with the second of his unofficial teen trilogy and first true musical, the 1950s satire, CRY-BABY.

This week, The Wives Colangelo muse on one of their favorite films of all time and discuss the political commentary embedded in the story, why Bob Fosse's changes from the Broadway show were for the best, and why Liza Minnelli is truly one of the greatest to ever do it.
