Overview

High school hotshot Zach Siler is the envy of his peers. But his popularity declines sharply when his cheerleader girlfriend, Taylor, leaves him for sleazy reality-television star Brock Hudson. Desperate to revive his fading reputation, Siler agrees to a seemingly impossible challenge. He has six weeks to gain the trust of nerdy outcast Laney Boggs -- and help her to become the school's next prom queen.

(Deep Dive begins at 1:00:00)

Welcome to the podcast that does what it says on the tin - we're so sure about that, we'll bet on it.  Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, Ethan, Megs, and Georgia as we're heading to prom after the most minor of makeovers in She's All That.  We're also taste testing a bevy of Canadian snacks Ian returned with from his Christmas trip home (full video on the Patreon).  We're reminiscing about Sixpence None The Richer as we discuss

  • If She's All That is the trope-eist of all 90s high school films
  • Whether Freddie Prinze Jr is ever the jerk that we're told he's redeemed himself from being
  • What is it about graduations and nudity
  • We discuss 90s music and what makes it so engrained to the era (unlike other decades)
  • We point out some massive stars in the cast and on the cameo list
  • What is it about Kevin Pollak that's so endearing
  • Ian finds a way to link this film to pro wrestling
  • Whether or not She's All That is the Best Film Ever
