Don't Watch Sober

One last Christmas movie for December! This time we are watching "The Merry Gentleman" (2024) on Netflix. This movie is a combination of a Hallmark Christmas movie, "Magic Mike," and "The Full Monty." How bad is this one? Tune in to find out! **** Strain of the Evening: Jack Herer Cocktail of the Evening: Santa's Magic Potion - just Eggnog and Bailey's, ratio to taste.

For our first Christmas movie of December we went with one that is making the rounds on TikTok, Hot Frosty (2024). It's as ridiculous as you might think, but they really lied to us with the Frosty thing, he was a man and made of snow, but not a snowman. Check it out with us! Available on Netflix ********* Strain of the Evening: Tangy Cocktail of the Evening: Drunken Snowman (Courtesty of iambaker....

Since Thanksgiving is upon us, we wanted to find a Thanksgiving movie. We didn't do that though. Instead, we found a movie about turkeys. And that movie is called "Blood Freak" from 1972. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into with this one and probably should have researched it a little more. Oh well! Enjoy it with us! **** Strain of the Night: Tangie (while drinking a Monster) Drink...

WE'RE BACK BABY!!! Welcome to Season 2 of Don't Watch Sober. For our first episode of the season, we have a movie neither of us knew existed, called 'Never Too Young To Die' (1986). This wanna be son of James Bond movie features John Stamos (pre Full House) and Gene Simmons! You read that right, Gene Simmons! Come check out this ridiculous movie with us! - Where to watch: For free - Philo and Crac...

WE'RE BACK!!! Yes, we've been gone a while. Life happened. But we come back to you with quite an episode. For this one, we are watching "The Fantastic Four" from 1994. That's right, this is the one that was never meant to be released. How bad is it? Listen along and find out. *********** Drink of the Evening: Smirnoff Ice Peach Lemonade **** Strain of the Evening: Orange Apricot Octane

Okay, so we've been gone a while, life happened and now we're back. But we have a fun one for you! We watched 1991's "Cool As Ice" starring the one and only Vanilla Ice. How bad can a movie with Vanilla Ice as the lead bad boy be?

I'm not going to lie guys, for this episode, I picked this show last minute (as it turns out the other show I picked apparently isn't bad???). So for this mini-sode, we are checking out "Hype House" from 2022. We were too old to ever have heard of The Hype House (a collective of young content creators) and after watching the show, we still don't understand. Want to check out...

In this mini-sode, we are checking out the 2015 sitcom, "Real Rob." Why did someone give Rob Schneider his own TV that kind of rips off "Seinfeld" a bit? Well, after watching this, we still don't know. Check out Season 1 Episode 5 with us, won't you? **** Where to Watch: Netflix **** Drink of the Evening: Mimosa All you need is orange juice and champagne. Mix the champa...

In this episode, we check out an oldie, "The House on Sorority Row" from 1982. Important note: Do not read the description on Rotten Tomatoes, it gives the movie away. This horror flick strays away from many cliches of scary movies at first but then leads into them pretty hard at the end. DId this movie rip off "Friday The 13th" a bit? Yeah, probably. Watch along with us!!! ***...

For this episode, we are watching the 2022 Netflix comedy "Me Time." This movie had all the ingredients to be good, but somehow the recipe got a bit off. Won't you check out this Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg adventure with us? ************ Where to Watch: Netflix *********** Drink of the Evening: Great South Bay Tipsy Punch (purchased at Grocery Outlet) ********** Strain of the Eveni...

For this mini-sode we are watching a commercial turned TV show from 2007, "Cavemen." We watched Season 1, Episode 4 'The Mascot' (we say it's episode 5 in the beginning, but it turned out not to be). Does anyone remember this show? Is it worth remembering?

For this mini-sode we are watching an old show from 1995 that we all forgot about, "Unhappily Ever After". In this show, the father has Schizophrenia. Do you think the 90s handled mental health issues well? Let's find out. We watched Season 3, Episode 17 'B-Minus Blues'. ******* Drink of the Evening: Shark Bite (courtesy of myincrediblerecipes.com/) INGREDIENTS   1 1/2 oz. Ma...

In this episode, we are watching a movie that has no problem being racist, sexist, disablist, and any other "ists" you can think of: 'Soul Man' from 1986. Is this blackface movie really that bad? Find out with us! *********** Where to watch: For rent on Vudu, AppleTV, Amazon, YouTube, Google ********** Drink of the Evening: (Picked at Random since Risa wasn't drinking) Cordia...

On this mini-sode, we are watching "Hoops" from 2020. We watched Season 1, Episode 6. This animated series only lasted for 10 episodes on Netflix. Was it justifiably canceled or did we miss out on pure gold?

For this fun mini-sode, we are watching (Japanese) Spider-Man from 1979. We watched Season 1, Episode 11.

In this episode, we are watching "Return to Horror High" from 1987. Don't let the fact that George Clooney is listed first fool you, he's hardly in it. Even though this film title has "Return" in it, it is not connected to the 1973 film "Horror High." This movie was, well, interesting to say the least. You may also end up with PTSD from a squeaky cart. Won't you check it out with us? ******** Drin...

For this mini-sode we are checking out the current show, "Velma". We watched Season 1, Episode 2. Honestly, we'd rather just watch "Drawn Together." 'Nuff said. ****** Where to watch: Amazon Prime Video Premium, HBO Max, and YouTube TV Premium. ****** Drink of the evening: Flamingo (courtesy of Tipsy Bartender) Ingredients: 1 1/2 oz. (45ml) White Rum 1 1/2 oz. (45ml) Pineapple Juice 1/4 oz. (7.5ml...

For this mini-sode we are checking out 'Manimal' from 1983. We watched Season 1, Episode 3. Part Magnum P.I., part James Bond, not nearly enough manimal-ing. This show only lasted 8 episodes, and well, we can see why. Won't you check it out with us? ****** Drink of the evening: Flamingo (courtesy of Tipsy Bartender) Ingredients: 1 1/2 oz.

Stepping back to horror movies, in this episode we are watching "Titanic 666" from 2022. In this movie, they have build the Titanic 3 (unsure if this movie has anything to do with "Titanic 2" from 2010), there's a man who is unsure of what his accent should be, some confusing ghost zombies, and a lot of other things that don't make sense. Want to check out this audacity with us? ********** Drink o...

In this mini-sode we are checking out a show you probably watched late at night when nothing else was on TV: "Cheaters." There's nothing like ambushing your cheating significant other in a public place, right?

Well, this mini-sode is a doozy. This show, "Cop Rock" from 1990, is...something. It didn't even last a whole season before being canceled. After watching this episode, we can understand why.

We are officially kicking off the New Year with something different from all those terrible Christmas Romance movies we watched in December. In this episode, we are watching, "The Barbarians" from 1987. This movie was directed by the Italian man who directed "Cannibal Holocaust". But don't worry, while this movie is just as bad, it's bad in a much less psychologically damaging way. Won't you join...

Rounding out our Christmas "Hallmark" marathon (though be it a little late), we finish off with Prince movies. We watched: 'Christmas At The Palace' (2018), 'A Royal Queens Christmas' (2021), and "A Prince for Christmas' (2015). Did you know that being royalty means you have to have an English accent? We didn't either. Won't you join us for what is probably the worst subgenre of these Christmas mo...

Continuing our "Hallmark" Christmas Movie Mash-Up, we have the theme of Single Moms. We watched, in this order (28mins of each): Noel Next Door (2022), Never Trust A Man In A Christmas Sweater (2020), and The Christmas Secret (2014). How will these movies line up? Do they all flow together? Are they basically the same movie? Find out with us! ***** Strain of the Evening: Berry Pie **** Drink of th...
