# Episode #146 – B*A*P*S

Consider our debt to “He’s the Housecat (Arthur’s Theme)” music video contest winner Dan Costales paid in full! _Was it worth it Dan?_ Was if _worth_ the pain you caused? Making us watch the pre-Oscar Halle Berry racist stereotype comedy “[B*A*P*S?](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118663/?ref_=nv_sr_1)”

 Meanwhile Elliott continually implies Martin Landau is a vampire, Stuart reveals how all males are sexually threatened by him, and Dan suggests that the Crypt Keeper should’ve come up with a better B*A*P*S twist.

 Just for fun, here’s [Roger Ebert’s review of B*A*P*S](http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/baps-1997). The money quote: _“My guess is that African Americans will be offended by the movie, and whites will be embarrassed. The movie will bring us all together, I imagine, in paralyzing boredom.”_
