The Good, The Bad, and The Sequel

This week I interviewed my 1st Casting Director and I couldn't have been luckier to have chatted with Glenn Daniels.  We reached out to Glenn for 2 of our earliest films, Caddyshack II and Police Academy 6, and I couldn't convince him to say "Yes", but after more emails not giving up, I finally convinced him.  I absolutely LOVED talking to Glenn and how he got started in Hollywood is a wild story. Plus hearing how he got actors like Stanley Tucci, Lisa Kudrow, Teri Hatcher, and Woody Harrelson.  I was also fascinated about how many movies that he has helped cast for that aren't on his IMDb.  We have been lucky enough to interview a lot of awesome people and Glenn is one of my favorites. Thank you, Glenn. Glenn's IMDb https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0199945/ Don't forget to watch "Child's Play 3" for our next review! It's on HBO Max.

"Live for nothing or die for something." is one of the most iconic lines uttered by Stallone in this week's sequel "Rambo" and trust us A LOT of people died in this movie.

It's with Rapper, Musician, Actor, and all around amazing guy Chingy.  I loved listening to Chingy while in high school and still listen to him, so this was such a great chance to pick the brain of someone in the music industry. Chingy talked about starting to write music at the age of 6, gave Doug a taste of his song that appeared on a mixtape, "Right Thurr", Snoop Dogg, his cameo in Scary Movie 4, and so much more.  We also discussed his new album "Crown Jewel" which should be out soon.   Follow us @sequelsonly and our website is sequelsonly.com

We discussed Eliza's roles in Schlock and Animal House and her Hollywood screenwriting parents, as well as how Eric started acting, Best of the Best 2, Wayne Newton, his Oscar nominations, and so much more.

We are finally doing our 1st boxing sequel and no it is not in the Rocky universe.  It's Teen Wolf Too starring Jason Bateman as Todd Howard who has a "sports" scholarship to box. Well, he doesn't know what sport his scholarship is for until he starts school, yeah pretty wild right? But that is just the tip of the iceberg.  We discussed every single thing that this insane sequel threw at us.  Like is hooking up with a Teen Wolf beastiality, was Styles the mastermind of turning Todd into the "Wolf", is Blob an appropriate nickname for a fat guy named Bob,  John Astin who plays a Dean who might be a pimp and a murderer, Maverick the boxer, a female wolf, and lots lots more.

I have interviewed a lot of people that were in shows that impacted my childhood, but this week's guest William Bickley is a huge part of a staple from my childhood, T.G.I.F. on ABC.  I have fond memories of my family rushing to the couch to watch.  William talked about his love for TV at a very young and the story about how he made it is exactly how everyone wants their Hollywood dream to go. We talked about him running "Happy Days" at a very young age, Garry Marshall, Perfect Strangers, Family Matters and the birth of Urkel, Step by Step, and he has some exciting projects coming up.   Write us a review wherever you listened and subscribe so you don't miss out on future episodes.
