Apr 19, 2021, 09:00 AM

Ever wonder what the greatest one-hit wonders of all time would sound like if they were played by an old-school Nintendo? Of course you haven't! Why would you? Regardless, you'll find out on this week's episode with fierce competitors Paul, Mike, and Stephanie! After the "8-Bit Wonders" have concluded, we'll quiz the players on movies whose titles sound like they SHOULD be in a series, but aren't. You'll be left wishing that the sequel to 28 Days was actually 28 Days Later. Our players leave it all on the table, and a winner is crowned after a rousing lightning round.
