Clueless
If you’ve ever wondered what the hell Helen is singing about in her original Falling in Love Montage theme song, then be buggin’ no longer.
Starting with episode 45, Clueless, we will tackle all six movies referenced in the theme song.
It’s going to be Phat!
We’ve called a truce and brought Val’s Matt back (after he was totally wiggin’ on Bridesmaids).
Also joining us is our *official* Jane Austen correspondent, Tracy Tanoff!
