This week, our hosts are breaking LAFS' cardinal rule—they've both seen the movie before...and there's no guest!! To be fair, it was difficult to locate someone who hadn't seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002). Starring and written by Nia Vardalos, and featuring Michael Constantine, John Corbett, and Andrea Martin, this crowd-pleasing flick has so much to offer: attainable character professions, dermatological life hacks, and a romantic male lead who truly feels like he was written by a woman (well, he was). Madison and Chelsea have long argued whether or not this film is a rom com; this time they'll have to definitively (if not reluctantly) decide its status.

About the Show

An examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time. The cinematic world of love and laughter had rom-com enthusiast Madison head over heels from the time Harry met Sally. For genre skeptic Chelsea, however, it’s been a grueling enemies-to-lovers plot. In Love at First Screening, Madison introduces Chelsea to all the fan-favorite love stories she’s never wanted to watch. One friend’s passion might be the other’s displeasure, but doesn’t love conquer all? Tune in every other Wednesday to find out.
