Talking Mission Hill - Plan 9 from Mission Hill (or I Married a Gay Man from Outer Space) With Matthew Jay
🕑 Added 2020-07-10 04:00:01 +0000 UTCWe've finally reached the end of our Mission Hill podcast journey with the very touching series finale. A burgeoning love of cinema (inspired by perversions) causes Kevin to find a new friend in Wally, and he soon receives a silver screen education under his neighbor's wing. But when Kevin discovers Wally made a movie of his own decades earlier, we learn about the shoddy art that brought him and his grumpy love together back in Red Scare America. It's a touching little tale that shows off the kind of series Mission Hill could be if it saw more than one season, and special guest Matthew Jay (of [the deep end] and Cartoons 101) joins us to discuss it and our own love of movies!
But that's not all—be sure to stay tuned for next week, as we wrap up this mini-series with an in-depth look at the fully written episodes that were never produced.

That episode was very good it’s a shame that we didn’t get more Mission Hill. Glad you guys had on Matthew Jay. As a fellow Matthew I’m going to cut the audio of “we love you Matthew” and cherish that audio.

It's kind of incredible how well done this episode centered around a gay couple written in 1999 holds up today. There wasn't really anything that made me go "yikes" watching this for the first time, and I loved how sweet and real it felt, while still delivering some pretty good jokes and a lot of pop culture references. This REALLY harkens back to the best episodes Bill & Josh produced as showrunners of the Simpsons, and it's a goddamn shame they didn't get to make more Mission Hill after this one, because this is a goddamn accomplishment. I really hope they find a home for the revival series because I will throw my money at any opportunity for more stories in this world.
