Failure To Launch
It’s the Three Musketeers, but set in modern day (August 2000) America! How does that work? We still don’t know.
info_outlineThis week Failure to Launch examines a late-90s relic from MTV, Sorority. An attempt to riff on classic college comedies like Animal House, but with a twist: instead of misfit dudes fighting the stuck up arseholes in the snooty frat, it’s all about misfit women fighting the stuck up arseholes in the snooty, uh... sorority.
Sounds kinda progressive, right? Well it was still the late 90s, so hahaha no.
