TGI – Episode 110 (“Santa’s Little Helper”)

In this episode Shawn’s dad gets laid off at Christmas time, starting the oh-so-emo, and long lasting, narrative that Shawn is poor. Cory vows to get Shawn a present, but that act of kindness proves harder than it sounds.

n

It’s certainly a BMW moment we’ve remembered for decades…except for Rider who for some reason can’t remember this episode AT ALL.

n

Will overheard something on set that changed his acting strategy forever and we do some ‘90s trivia that the hosts may or may not know.

n

It’s fitting that this is a Christmas BMW episode because it’s the gift that keeps on giving.

Lance Bass Meets World

There’s nothing like young love – especially when one of you is a TV icon, and the other is in the biggest boy band of the ‘90s. 

n

We’re welcoming Danielle’s ex-bf, NSYNC’s Lance Bass, to relive their relationship and a very “special” Prom night. You read that right, they went to Prom together with matching teased hair. They dated for a year and she thought it was ‘gonna be her’ until (spoiler alert) he said Bye Bye Bye via telephone (mostly likely a flip phone). 

n

And now – they’re still close friends – and (EXCLUSIVE!) turning that Prom into a movie. Put on a tux and boutonnière, because you don’t want to miss this reunion!
