The Forgotten Classics

2007 · 1 season

A quick, silly mock-documentary that affectionately skewers film nerd culture with deadpan absurdity.

Overview: After the success of Your Magic Touched Me and Your Magic Touched Me: Nights, there were a lot of people figuring that Ryan Nagata needed the lovable Shizuki Thornburg to crack prime time again. But those people are morons... and wrong. In The Forgotten Classics, host Jeff Davis takes us back in time through the hidden cinematic gems you've never seen.
How it feels: Satirical, absurd, light and cynical. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Media, art, celebrity, obsession
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
