Published: April 28, 2023, 5 a.m.

Justice for Melissa! This week we\u2019re giving some much overdue love to Jami Gertz\u2019s award-winning performance as Bill Paxton\u2019s woefully neglected fianc\xe9 in peril in 1996\u2019s \u201cTwister.\u201d But first, we have a lot of feelings about Helen Hunt, especially her Oscar winning accent in \u201cAs Good As It Gets.\u201d Plus: Best Supporting Aunt Meg with those obscene plates of steak and eggs, T\xe0r director Todd Field, Philip Seymour Hoffman at his crunchiest, a Shelley Duvall cameo, apparently Anthony Rapp and so many Dodge Caravans.\n\nJoin us for The Best Supporting Aftershow, the complete season 1 recap of "SMASH" and early access to main episodes on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bsapod\n\nEmail: thebsapod@gmail.com\nInstagram: @bsapod\n\nColin Drucker - Instagram: @colindrucker_\n\nNick Kochanov - Instagram: @nickkochanov
