About this episode

The episode explores the spooky elements of the 1980s TV series 'The Charmings' and its unique take on fairy tale characters.

Boo! We're celebrating Halloween by a look at some appropriately spooky episodes of a short-lived TV series called "The Charmings" that ran in the late 80s. Have you ever wondered what Snow White and Prince Charming's life would be like if they woke up in late 80s Burbank, California? No? Oh... well, you're gonna find out anyways! Join us as we discuss devilishly charismatic characters, party-planning witches, and the creepiest thing of all: parents who don't respect their children's autonomy.
