Killer Fun Crime and Entertainment

Comedy

Killer Fun explores the intersection of crime and entertainment. A couple times a month we watch a television show, movie, read a book, play a game or delve into other forms of entertainment that involve crime - both real and fictional. Join Christy and Jackie for some well-researched facts - and laughs - every episode. We don’t LIKE crime, but we are fascinated by it. Christy is a super-sleuth when it comes to internet research and Jackie has a Master's degree in Psychology from Harvard.

The Surviving Game - Woman of the Hour

11/21/2024
We hear about the serial killers, their victims, the police and reporters who chase them… but what about the near misses? We were delighted by the largely fictionalized near miss story in Woman of the Hour. From special relativity to the trauma of rejecting, there is tons to talk about.

So Very Rich - The Perfect Couple

11/7/2024
Rich people behaving poorly and entitled seems to be a favorite genre for Nicole Kidman and The Perfect Couple is no exception. Based on a beach read, the show allows you to escape into the posh world of Nantucket - even if that escape can be drawn out.

Walk in Beauty - Dark Winds

10/10/2024
Representation matters and Dark Winds (AMC) delivers.

Wicked - The Instigators

Horrifyingly Affordable - Hit Man

7/4/2024
Sometimes another person is… just in the way. But you would be advised NOT to try and hire a Hit Man because we see in the Netflix movie (that got a theatrical release), that most of the time they are just police. How much is true? Can you change your personality? And are hitmen just fancy serial killers?

We take the time to parse what’s real, the why of character behavior, and can you stay in that lovely chalet?

Abused Not Troubled - The Program

3/28/2024
The “troubled teen industry” is full of normal teenagers with rich parents - at least in many cases - and for truely troubled kids, places like The Academy at Ivy Ridge were abusive and NOT helpful. The Program: Cons, Cults, and Kidnapping shines a light on the deplorable conditions at WWASP institutions.
