"I am gonna do what I wanna do! And you know what? I don't need your permission to do it!"What if your grandparents magically turned back into teenagers, and they were so hot that it caused chaos in your high school? And what if you look exactly like your grandma did at your age, so this magical regression inspires some twin magic hijinks? This week, The Wives Colangelo are joined by Aaron Perine of Free Space to talk about the only movie to feature all three Mowry siblings, SEVENTEEN AGAIN. Let's talk about the Tia/Tamera/Tahj trifecta, the lack of "fun" coming-of-age movies with Black protagonists, and outline all of the moments that explain why this movie was made by Showtime and not the Disney Channel.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTDONATE TO YOUR LOCAL FOOD BANKS.

The Pregnancy Pact (2010)
"So this is what it feels like to be Jamie Lynn Spears."There are two types of people in this world: People who love Lifetime Original Movies and people named Harmony Colangelo. This Ends at Prom is finally embarking on the wild world of LMN originals and starting with THE PREGNANCY PACT, a ripped-from-the-headlines drama with massive creative liberties taken. What actually happened to these girls? Why are so many people obsessed with stories about teen girls behaving "badly," and where is the line between entertainment and exploitation?--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTDONATE TO YOUR LOCAL FOOD BANKS.

The Brady Bunch Movie, 30 Years Later
"Put on your Sunday best, kids. We're going to Sears!"The Brady Bunch is one of those fascinating TV relics that helped shape American culture for decades, so in the 1990s, they lovingly spoofed it with THE BRADY BUNCH MOVIE and gave us one of the great cult-hits of the decade. To sweeten the deal, the film is also centered on the middle teen girl of the group, the incomparable Jan Brady.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show: 50th Anniversary w/ Chelsey Weber-Smith
"Don't dream it. Be it."50 years ago, a midnight movie was unleashed on the American masses that changed the lives of outsider teenagers forever. The Wives Colangelo would not be the people we are today without THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, and neither would Chelsey Weber-Smith of the American Hysteria podcast. For the final episode of the Halloween season 2025, let's all do the time warp, give ourselves over to absolute pleasure, and tackle arguably the greatest movie ever made about liberating yourself from the standards of the status quo.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTHelp Barbara Fight for Her Future After ICE Detention: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-barbara-fight-for-her-future-after-ice-detention--------Follow our Guest!@AmericanHysteriaPodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/americanhysteria--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

The Ugly Stepsister (2025)
"That's the whole point. I'm going to marry the Prince."THE UGLY STEPSISTER is Emilie Blichfeldt's first feature, and it is unfathomable that a first-time feature filmmaker was given the space (and budget) to make such a biting, daring, and monstrous creative swing. The reason Cinderella is a fairy tale is that to be a woman so pure and beautiful that a rich prince takes you away from your terrible existence is a fantasy. The painful truth is that for the majority of us, we will never be Cinderella and have far more in common with "the ugly stepsister."This movie is extreme, so proceed with caution!!--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTHelp Barbara Fight for Her Future After ICE Detention: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-barbara-fight-for-her-future-after-ice-detention--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/
