Since the last time we recorded an episode of Cancelling the Episode, Dom got pregnant, Raph got married twice, Ruthanna Emrys wrote A Half-Built Garden (2022) and Guillermo del Toro directed Frankenstein (2025). We talk about gestation and gestational politics, alien sex, queering the family, communities of care. Mostly, however, we talk about all the things we didn’t like about Frankenstein (2025). There are a lot. Buckle up.
