About this episode
You're not totally buggin' - Clueless is now 30 years old! To celebrate, Mark welcomes his homies Melissa Ward and Jason Kashiwagi back on the show to take a trip down memory freeway. This trendsetting, aspirational Amy Heckerling classic only gets better with age, but they wonder if the romantic ending is actually pretty weird and ponder what direction the upcoming TV show continuation could go in. Plus, Mark shares what happens in his Clueless 2 script that he wrote in elementary school, the trio decides if Paul Rudd or Jeremy Sisto was cuter, and the other 1995 teen movie Kids (less virgins in that one) gets a shout-out.
