In this flighty, whistful episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we once again stop the motion of our emotions for 2006 film, Blood Tea and Red String, written and directed by Christiane Cegavske.
Tubi is once again gracing us with fantastical fantasy stop motion! Will it strike at our hearts? Will our heart be cut out off screen somehow? I do not know! Let's find out!
-
In this memeified, reclining episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we finally get the Tubitunity to witness the 2019 cult classic, Killer Sofa, written and directed by Bernie Rao.
Sofas are genuinely dangerous. Especially those heavy ones that have the recliner with all those bars on the inside that are impossible to carry comfortably. So of course Tubi will understand our plight into the true terror of this grave object! Of course Tubi will understand...

This week on Tubi or Not Tubi, we have an absolute treat!
Join us for a delightful conversation with Shengwei Zhou, a self-taught master of stop motion and the mind that generated the recently reviewed Sh(e).
We dig deep into not only the process of art-making, but the mysteries that lie under the surface of the compulsion to create itself. It's a wild journey we take as we investigate the inside stories of Sh(e), Art is Dead, and Zhou's currently developing series: Perfect City.

In this unashamed, brazen episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we break the chains of common human decency with the 1983 film, The Wicked Lady, directed by Michael Winner and starring Faye Dunaway.
One of the most dangerous versions of a Tubi film one can find is the early 1880's rated R period comedy. But is said danger actually an amusement, or is it just plain dangerous? Let's find out together!
-
In this peer pressured, ostracizing episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we get a little pep in our assimilating step for the 1976 film, Bernice Bobs Her Hair, directed by Jona Micklin Silver.
"Wait, do you mean the early F. Scott Fitzgerald Bernice Bobs Her Hair?" Yes, that one silly! If Agatha Christie is anything to go by, even adaptions aren't immune from the unseen manipulations of Tubi...
-
In this eternal, brooding episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we travel the timestream in search of the 2020 film, Xane: The Vampire God, directed by Johnny Pendragon.
There are many things that exist on Tubi. Some things happen to always exist. Not many MUST always exist. But Jocelyn is there. Existing.
I guess.

CW: Subjugation, in every form
In this overworked, deeply wounded episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we wear the clothes of our enemies and sneak into the 2018 film, SHe, written and directed by Shengwei Zhou.
Listen. Look... Tubi sometimes does social experiements on you. We didn't see this one comin.
-
In this rambunctious, frantic episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we do our best to run from the beast who lives in the caves of the Dakotas known as the 2012 movie, Bigfoot, directed by Bruce Davison and starring Danny Bonaduce and Sherilyn Fenn.
Tubi has been putting us through the ringer lately, so it is only fitting for us to attempt an emotional reset using the grace of a Bigfoot film. But can Tubi fill the shoes?
-
In this whistful, nostalgic episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we get on a boat with our father's permission and travel to the quaint island known as the 2016 film, Swallows and Amazons, directed by Philippa Lowthorpe.
This episode was supposed to be a walk in the park. This genre is supposed to be a slam dunk. This one was teased for nearly a quarter of an entire year. Now you, yes you, will finally bear witness... For Tubi has fooled us all.
-
Wait, more Twofers?? Yes, another dose is in order my friends! How come? Because the seas of Tubi are turbulent and demand to be known!
So join us again as we face another trial from Quizmaster Pete!
-
It is peak summer season and boy oh boy have we been inundated in Tubi's Turbulent Waters... Indeed it is time to unload the mental cargo for another set of Terrifying Tubi Twofers!
-
In this meandering gondola boat ride of a Tubi or Not Tubi episode, we repeatedly politely ask permission to gently view the 2009 film, The City of Your Final Destination, directed by James Ivory and starring Anthony Hopkins, Laura Linney, and Hiroyuki Sanada.
"Drama-Kinda-Romances where an introvert goes to some random country and asks politley for things for 2 hours" is one of the weirdest genres cinema has to offer. However, with a title like this one, and Anthony Hopkins attached, how could we not check this one out? I mean Tubi surely can't punish us for being curious, right?
Right?
... Right?
-
CW: Domestic Abuse and its verbal, physical, and sexual horrors.
In this harrowing, communal episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we finally unearth the passion project that is the 2023 film, If I Can't. This was written by, directed by, and starring Mena Monroe.
If one recalls a certain pleasurable interview we secured last year with one Briyan Keith Montgomery Jr., he recommended we check out this particular film. So it went on the list, and now we have arrived.
And boy, was it fascinating!
-
In this genre-bending, gun-toting episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we put on our suburban spurs and bring our shotguns to the 2024 Tubi Original film, Paradise, directed by Max Isaacson and starring Patricia Allison.
The "Tubi Original" has, in a way, become a unique incubator for experimentation in film. (Except when it's not, but it often is!) One must wonder what kind of genre brew this movie is cooking. Either way, the final dish is sure to be something interesting!
-
In this repetitive, synthetical episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we enter a unique kind of Clone Saga in the 2017 film, Andover, written and directed by Scott Perlman.
If a loved one of yours died, would you steal their hair and clone them and try to raise them to be your lover again? Yeah neither would I but the plot of this film seems to have no regard for human morals. Fun!
-
In this unfathomably fortuitous episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we have the absolute honor of sitting down with three of the minds and movers behind Coherence, a personal podcast favorite film!
As we chat with director James Ward Byrkit, co-writer Alex Manugian, and actress Lauren Maher, we get deep in the weeds of how Coherence came to be...
But much like the film, as the night goes on, the conversation steers us into a discussion of Shatter Belt, Pirates of the Caribbean, Grey's Anatomy, Rango, Rango the video game for the Nintendo Wii, Mind Forest, A Christmas Wedding at the Bakery 3: Bakers Dozen, Peaceful Tadpoles, and Potato People!
This is a 10th Anniversary interview so thorough you'll be checking the color of your glowstick by the end like we were...
-
Another year has passed by... and goodness what a turbulent and topsy-turvy year it was! We've met so many cool people who did so much cool work! We also survived a dog plague and messed around in the mushroom cave and pulled a weird cocoon out of the ground so there's that.
Join us as we review and rank this year's experiences.
-
In this fantastical, child-like episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we prematurely turn on the Mariah Carey as we sled our way into 1951 film, Santa and the Fairy Snow Queen, directed by Sid Davis.
25 minutes is both an eternity amount of cringe and has to be technologically sound because pestering is not working. Tubi may or may not do that. We'll see...
-
Surprise! Yes, It's suddenly time for another series of Twofers, and Quizmaster Pete has all the adjudication materials handy for yet another cocktail tray of Tubi goods & services.
-
In this public service of an afterschool special of a Tubi or Not Tubi episode, we question the meaning of innocence in the 1984 film, The Boy Who Loved Trolls, directed by Harvey S. Laidman and starring William H. Macy and Sam Waterson.
Tubi has a wealth of content intended for children. But when it's PBS, you know some form of subliminal attack is going to be involved. We've seen Somnium offscreen. We know. But will The Boy Who Loved Trolls teach us more?
