Should You Give In To Hysteria!?

Pamela Ribon joins us to talk about the satanic-panic period piece, plus a Jump Street Canon twist.

Author, filmmaker, and Listen To Sassy co-host Pam Ribon is back to help us figure out what Hysteria! is trying to do: satirize the satanic panic and witch hunts of a bygone era? invoke Stranger Things and the Church Lady? We’re not even sure what genre we should call it, never mind whether you should watch it, but maybe our discussion will help you decide. We went Around The Dial with What We Do In The Shadows, The Change, and Woman Of The Hour before trying to sneak an undercover 21 Jump Street episode into the Ca– er, the Pamon. Slow Horses won, car chases lost, and we got bogged down in minutiae with rightwood’s IMDb-forward Game Time. Take a break from that pentagram copy-edit and check it out!
