1989: Turner and Hooch with Toby Herman
Writer Toby Herman is on the show this week to talk about the greatest (or worst, it's all a matter of perspective!) crime fighting duo of 1989, Turner & Hooch.
In the current pop culture age of tongue-in-cheek throwbacks, it's hard to not get swept up in the 80's cheese that is hard boiled into the core of this deranged buddy cop comedy. Are we looking back with rose tinted glasses, or is this movie an underrated diamond in the RUFF? Toby has some thoughts on the matter. We take a deep dive behind the scenes to talk about the on-set rivalries, inexplicably long "screenplay by" credits, and the bizarre, contradictory choices made, that bring up a lot of questions about the intended audience age.
