Season 8, Episode 1

The violent TRUE ROMANCE, THE BALLAD OF LITTLE JO, KALIFORNIA, THE JOY LUCK CLUB and THE REAL MCCOY are the five films that are reviewed in this episode of the wonderful television series. Watching this twenty-five years after originally doing so, there's no question that these episodes stand up qutie well and they certainly haven't lost any of their entertainment value. Of course, one fun thing about watching them after their release date is that you can see and think about where the films are today. Both TRUE ROMANCE and KALIFORNIA have a strong cult following yet something like THE JOY LUCK CLUB has somewhat been forgotten even after all the praise it got. Overall this is a fun episode that fans will enjoy.
