’80s TV Adaptations Month Continues with The Fall Guy (2024)

This week’s episode looks at David Leitch’s latest film, The Fall Guy, starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. Much to their surprise, Mike and Steven both enjoyed it for the most part. The discuss its fun tone, the TV show on which it’s based, and much more. At the end of the show, prompted by the film’s opening weekend box office numbers, they talk about what the rest of the summer—and Hollywood in general—might have in store. Spoiler alert: it’s grim.
