Kirby Reed is one of the most popular characters ever in the SCREAM franchise. In this episode, Ryan is joined by Justin from "Foolish Mortals and Happy Haunts" to argue why Kirby's next appearance should be in SCREAM 8. Despite Hayden Panettiere's confirmation that there are no direct plans, Ryan and Justin also articulate a vision of what a Kirby/Ghostface/FBI spinoff Paramount+ show could look like.

June 15th is Courteney Cox's birthday! In her honor, this episode explores the morality of Gale Weathers as character over 30 years and how she is discussed as a pop culture figure with Ivan. Then, Ryan is joined by Brendon for a discussion/ranking of Courteney Cox's TV shows and characters over the years from Friends, Dirt, Cougar Town, and Shining Vale. To round out the show, Ashley joins Ryan to analyze "Hoax" (from Taylor Swift's "folklore") in the context of Gale Weathers in Scream (2022), Scream VI, and Scream 7.

"Scary Movie 6" starring Anna Faris and Regina Hall released just days ago to a massive box office overhaul, continuing Paramount Pictures' streak of franchise hits after "Scream 7." In this episode, Ryan reviews "Scary Movie 6" with producer TJ Jones, Josh Carr, Anthony Dapuzzo, and Jess Melendez.
 
Ryan discusses the bold statement the Wayans Brothers make with the ending of this movie about embracing the original characters rather than the requel replacements, a concept that has been widely discussed in relation to the SCREAM franchise since "Scream VI." In addition, Ryan explains his point of view as to why the Wayans spoofed the exact narrative structure of "Scream" (2022) to undercut the message of the Radio Silence era with their own statement about how they view their franchise. 
 
Then, Ashley joins Ryan to for "Drop Dead" by Olivia Rodrigo as the song of the week ahead of the release of her new album, "You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So In Love," this Friday.
