Case #0019 - Valentine's Day (2010) has the best romcom format

Case #0019 - Prosecutie Jess pitches Moonstruck, the Nicholas Cage and Cher romcom, a couple of times over the course of the episode. Judge Barbara Lynn expands our understanding of Melissa’s Rules of Civil Fuckery and dubs this movie the McDonald’s Dollar Menu of romcoms. Mel cries over cheese. 

Thank’s for showing up to jury duty! Court will be back in session (MAYBE) on March 1st, 2023 . 

TW: ASMR with Tarot Cards, cheating, Sarah Brown Slander, romantic step-sibling relationships, Mel calls herself a crackhead despite trying to take it out of her vocabulary,

Today’s podcast includes soundbites from Valentine's Day (2010), Euphoria Season 2, and 10 Things I Hate About You (1999) as well as the theme song  from the show America's Next Top Model and the song "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" by Anju Ramapriyam. I also do not own the clips from this Late Show interview or the AMC Nicole Kidman ad. This is not my content, and I am utilizing it under fair use for comment and criticism.
