<p>This week we&#39;re joined by our good friend Christine Wines to talk about the holiday classic, Home Alone. We discuss how the plot leaves no stone unturned, some of our favorite actors, and the joys of rewatching this movie every holiday season.</p>

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.
