"I am gonna do what I wanna do! And you know what? I don't need your permission to do it!"
What if your grandparents magically turned back into teenagers, and they were so hot that it caused chaos in your high school? And what if you look exactly like your grandma did at your age, so this magical regression inspires some twin magic hijinks? This week, The Wives Colangelo are joined by Aaron Perine of Free Space to talk about the only movie to feature all three Mowry siblings, SEVENTEEN AGAIN. Let's talk about the Tia/Tamera/Tahj trifecta, the lack of "fun" coming-of-age movies with Black protagonists, and outline all of the moments that explain why this movie was made by Showtime and not the Disney Channel.

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.
Thank you for five years of This Ends at Prom, supporting teen girl cinema, and validating movies that "filmbros" ignore.
