SHOW NOTES
Check out this smokey, vintage trailer for the original movie version of Sunset Boulevard.
Much to Tommy's chagrin, we've talked Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals a few times before on the podcast. Check out our coverage of Phantom and Cats.
Yes, Tommy has an obsession with Murder, She Wrote. No, it's not a problem…
And today on Jim and Tomic's Video Game Happy Hour, it's the point-and-click classic Grim Fandango.

Jimi's favorite: Elaine Page singing With one Look. …take a look at it…get it?
