Should You Go Running Back (To 1995) For The O.J. Simpson Story?

Marking the 30th anniversary of Lifetime’s poorly timed TV movie.

The trial of O.J. Simpson in the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman began January 24, 1995. So naturally the perfect date for Lifetime to air its TV movie The O.J. Simpson Story — largely about what he did in the days immediately after said murders — was…exactly one week later. Exactly 30 years later, we found it on YouTube. How does it play now? We discuss. Ask EHG challenges us with questions about what a Jim Mullen multicam would be like and which 90s teen drama character is most likely to be driving a Cybertruck today. Tara pitches Ron’s food poisoning in the penultimate episode of Party Down Season 3 for induction into the Illness (Comedic) Tiny Canon. Then we pick the week’s Not Quite Winners And Losers before ending on Sarah’s forced march through the series premiere of Prime Video’s 2013 political sitcom Alpha House. Pour some juice — or don’t — and listen!
