It’s Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, New Year’s etc… We watched a few traditional and non-traditional films and shows to celebrate!

It’s Christmastime! We know, lots of other holidays too, but this podcast is focused on Christmas in Norway, Italy, South Africa, Poland, the UK, Brazil, & Holland.

Can you believe that after 12 long years “The Walking Dead” has finally ended? Well, the original series has. We’ve got spinoffs coming for Daryl, Michonne, and Rick, of course. And there’s the rest of the TWD Universe. So, what’s dead may never die. (Wrong show!)

Our One-and-Done show this month is the 2009 NBC series “Kings,” starring “Deadwood’s” Ian McShane and Marvel’s Sebastian Stan.

It’s the Geek Girls’ favorite episode of the year… the annual rewatch of HBO’s “The Leftovers”! This is our 5th time doing it—not our 5th time watching, mind you. We’ve lost count of that. This year, we’re focusing on faith and lies, specifically with Keven and Nora.

What’s your sign? And what movie represents your sign? That’s what we’re discussing this week. Turns out there’s a movie genre for each sign of the zodiac. Who knew?!

You’ve seen the movie. But have you watched the now-canceled series? For this month’s One-and-Done, we’re chatting about “Heathers”—the trying-a-bit-too-hard series that’s based-on, riffed-off-of, an homage-to the Winona Ryder/Christian Slater film from 1988.

Months ago, we read a post by Eric Eidelstein on Twitter in which he challenged followers to pick one movie that “encompasses everything there is to know about you—your values, your fantasies, and your fears.” Well, challenge accepted!

Bob Odenkirk: Action hero? You bet your butt! And, boy, is he full of wrath, which just happens to be our topic here this week with our 7 Deadly Sins theme. We’re chatting about the 2021 film “Nobody.”

This week, the Geek Girls (and Chris) take a ride with Captain Tightpants and the crew of the Serenity for an extra special One and Done episode. That’s right. This week we marathoned all fourteen episodes of prematurely canceled Fox series, “Firefly” and the follow-up movie, “Serenity”.

This week at Geek Girl Soup, it’s back to more hot vampires with… “The Northman”! What, you say? That’s not a vampire flick! Well, it all depends on how you look at it. Just ask Alexander Skarsgard (aka “True Blood’s” Vampire Eric Northman—NORTHMAN, ahem). He’ll tell you that this is essentially Eric’s backstory. So, yes, vampire flick! 

Merry Christmas in July! We’ve got a treat for you this year. No standard Christmas fare. Oh, no. We went in a different direction. We gifted (ugh, not too keen on that verb!) ourselves a super-fun non-Christmas film (“Everything Everywhere All at Once”) and a sort-of Christmas flick that was so junky as to be uproarious fun (“Christmas Twister”).

This week we’re officially back on our theme of the 7 Deadly Sins with gluttony: “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”! Artificial intelligence. The environment. Climate. Disaster. Nerds. Daddy issues. Science, bitches. And, yes, pure gluttony. Kinda the perfect movie for Geek Girl Soup!

Geek Girl Soup is not just a bit disappointed with the recent SCOTUS rulings on all the things. So, for Kelly’s birthday, she chose the theme of Justice is Served. We watched three films and one documentary series in which justice is, yes, served—to our approval: The Innocence Files, My Cousin Vinny, The Rainmaker, and And Justice for All.

This week, the Geek Girls (and guy) take a trip to Belize… but not that kind! (Yes, Saul Goodman returns on July 11th, but that’s another podcast!) We’re back on our monthly One-and-Done theme with Amazon Prime’s “Mad Dog’s” (U.S.).

It’s a Hot Vampire Summer—part 1—here at Geek Girl Soup! This week, we rewatched as much of HBO’s “True Blood” as we could fit in. Well, we watched most of seasons 1 through 5 and the series finale.

This week we “attended” the 2022 Tribeca at Home film festival. We watched as many shorts, features, documentaries, and narrative films as we could bear.

This week at Geek Girl Soup, we’re continuing with our 7 Deadly Sins theme. This time, we’re talking envy with “The Talented Mr. Ripley” (SHO).

Grab your popcorn and settle in as Geek Girl Soup gets extra messy with a deep dive into our favorite guilty pleasures. One person’s trash tv is certainly another’s treasure trove of good times. Amelia and Susan breakdown the list of shows they’ve been watching. 

What happens when you pair up an alcoholic ex-cop and his best friend who also happens to be a former criminal? You get “Terriers” (Hulu), this month’s entry into Geek Girl Soup’s One and Done series. Airing just 13 episodes in 2010 before being canceled, “Terriers” follows Hank Dolworth (Donal Logue) and Britt Pollack (Michael Raymond-James) as two unlicensed private investigators who take rather extreme license in doing things their way—which is not always exactly the legal way.
