Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #412: It's Showtime

In this week's episode, we dive into the Beetlejuice franchise and explore the different iterations of the iconic character. We start by discussing the classic 1988 movie and its lasting impact on pop culture. From there, we move on to the animated TV series, which aired from 1989 to 1991 and brought Beetlejuice to a new generation of fans. Finally, we touch on the recently-closed Broadway production and examine how it adapted the story and characters for the stage. And of course, we have some fandom news and some housekeeping, and we share your feedback. Finally, Rachel shares her experience at the Lexington Comic and Toy Convention, including participating in the cosplay contest and talking D&D with Steve from Blue's Clues.
