The Last Song (2010)

Waiting... (2005)

"She broke the cardinal rule: Don't f*ck with people that handle your food." It's Harmony's birthday, so The Wives Colangelo are breaking the rules and talking about a coming-of-age film that wasn't marketed toward teen girls, but certainly resonated with anyone, regardless of gender, who came of age while working in the service industry. It's time to discuss the value of chain restaurants, the found family of coworkers, and the genius of Alanna Ubach.

Annie (1982)

"I didn't want to be just another orphan, Mr. Warbucks. I wanted to believe I was special." MAY-usical Month 2026 is coming to an end with a movie chosen by our Patreon supporters, ANNIE (1982). This week, The Wives Colangelo are dissecting everyone's favorite red-headed orphan, dissecting the weirdest politics ever to be found in a movie this catchy, and trying to figure out if Miss Hannigan and Rooster are ... special siblings. It's a hard knock life, so let's sing about it! -------- Article Mentioned The Politics of Annie: https://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/the-politics-of-annie [https://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/the-politics-of-annie] -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom [https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom] -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT Election Protection: https://866ourvote.org/ [https://866ourvote.org/] -------- Social Media Plugs @ThisEndsAtProm @BJColangelo @HarmonyColangelo ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/ [https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/]

MTV's 2GE+HER (2000)

"There are five basic types in every successful boy band." It's BJ Colangelo's birthday episode, and this year she's celebrating by losing her mind about her favorite not-real, real boy band, MTV's 2GE+HER. The Wives Colangelo are breaking down boy band archetypes, talking about what makes satire work, mourning Michael Cuccione, and learning their calculus (it says U + ME = US). -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom [https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom] -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT Election Protection: https://866ourvote.org/ [https://866ourvote.org/] -------- Social Media Plugs @ThisEndsAtProm @BJColangelo @HarmonyColangelo ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/ [https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/]

Starstruck (1982)

"I want a band. I want amplifiers. I want, I want, I want." It's Jackie Mullins' world, and we're merely the audience waiting for her to rock it. Before Gillian Armstrong gave us LITTLE WOMEN in the 1990s, she gave us a blue-collar music film about a teenage girl with big dreams to be a star. One of the most Harmony-coded movies ever made, The Wives Colangelo are ready to bring the prom party into the candy-coated jubilee of STARSTRUCK. -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom [https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom] -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT Election Protection: https://866ourvote.org/ [https://866ourvote.org/] -------- Social Media Plugs @ThisEndsAtProm @BJColangelo @HarmonyColangelo ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/ [https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/]

High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008)

"Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat!" We're all in this together this MAY-usical month, and we're saying farewell to our friends at East High with HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3: SENIOR YEAR. The rare instance of a made-for-TV movie getting a theatrical sequel, The Wives Colangelo are here to talk about the benefits of a bigger budget, why Troy Bolton will forever remain in our hearts, and why Kenny Ortega is This Ends at Prom royalty. -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom [https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom] -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT Election Protection: https://866ourvote.org/ [https://866ourvote.org/] -------- Social Media Plugs @ThisEndsAtProm @BJColangelo @HarmonyColangelo ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/ [https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/]
