Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship.
Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard.
In this episode, Allie and Tyler are joined by special guest The Pop Break podcast producer Alex Marcus to ring in 2023 with the seminal erotic thriller we all hid watching from our parents, 1999’s Cruel Intentions, starring Sarah Michelle Gellar, Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe. Listen as they discuss the glaring differences between watching this movie as a teen versus an adult, Sebastion’s uncanny ability to seduce women (Tyler isn’t buying it) and Sarah Michelle Gellar’s badass villain turn. Where do the film’s even trashier sequels fit in? Tune in to find out!
