<p>Joined again by our dear friend Autumn Bates, we kick off spooky movie season with 1996&#39;s Scream. We discuss our endless love for the franchise, the performances that capture the 90&#39;s, horror movie tropes, and a whole lot of Matthew Lillard. </p>

Scream 2 W/ Damon Royster

Welcome to Franchise Fanatics, where 2 friends and comedians, Cody and Ryan, take a deep dive into your favorite movie franchises. Each episode focuses on a single film within the franchise, but the hosts discuss it in the broader context of the entire series.

From Scream to Back to the Future, Cody and Ryan bring their unique perspectives and comedic flair to break down the characters, plots, and direction that make these franchises so beloved. They discuss whether the film helps or hurt the franchise, whether or not the franchise needed the film, and how they rank it in the franchise.
