Rotten Tomatoes Is Wrong (A Podcast from Rotten Tomatoes)

It's time to munch on some grindage, buddies, and celebrate this delicious turkey holiday by looking back at when Carla Gugino brought home Pauly Shore for Thanksgiving in the 1993 comedy classic 'Son-in-Law!' 'Son-in-Law' is Pauly Shore's highest rated movie on the Tomatometer at 32%, but our panel fervently disagrees with its abysmal rating as they can't get enough of Shore's 'Crawl.' Special guest and comedian Justine Marino joins Mark and Jacqueline to discuss whether Rotten Tomatoes is Wrong about the cultural phenomenon that was Pauly Shore in 'Son-in-Law.' What is your favorite Pauly Shore movie? Do you think 'Son-in-Law' deserves such a low rating? Or do you side more with the audience and its 59% rating?

Now that spooky season has come and gone, we are gearing up for that wonderful holiday where we get to visit family, watch some football, and enjoy some delicious turkey! What better way to celebrate than to revisit Christina Ricci's famous Thanksgiving speech in the comedy classic 'Addams Family Values.'

Special guest Dorina Arellano joins Mark and Jacqueline to discuss whether this comedy sequel is as good as, if not better than its predecessor, or if the macabre Addams Family should be left alone entirely. Do you believe 'Addams Family Values' deserves a higher Tomatometer score than the critics gave it? Or do you side more with the audience on this one? Let us know in the comments below!
