Episode #155: Caroline in the City - "Caroline and the Singer"
Release Date: June 17, 2019

MUST SEE TV MONTH continues when Patrick and Kat slip into the world of CAROLINE IN THE CITY, a pivotal series that shaped our teenage years, but, was a series that never quite caught on with mass audiences. Anyone, the show stars one of our gal pals, Lea Thompson, who plays a cartoonist who deals with the trials and tribulations of what it is to be a soon-to-be 31 year old woman living in New York City. Anyway, the episode we chose features MACKENZIE PHILLIPS as Annie's sister, a former 80s pop princess who struggles to come up with a modern day hit.

Plus, the strange and controversial life of MACKENZIE PHILLIPS, the struggle of trying to figure out how to program a VCR in 1997, and the dangers of sitting in your car while it's running during a snowstorm.
