Title: Beach Boys Show Up Unexpectedly On Netflix Episode AGAIN
Post by: guitarfool2002 on November 25, 2022, 07:02:23 PM
This time on the third and final season of the Netflix show "Dead To Me" with Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini, some of the last episodes of the series. First appearance was a large poster-size blow up of one of the familiar 60's black and white promo photos of the band hanging as a poster on a teenage character's bedroom wall, shown prominently in multiple scenes, then as I was watching I had a feeling since the poster was placed so obviously on the set, I'll bet a song will follow soon. And I was right, but surprised to hear what song they chose: Pet Sounds! Yes, the instrumental title track. The show is set in Orange County California, the song appeared in a beach scene set in Mexico.

Very cool and unexpected placement. Here's a Spotify playlist for the show's soundtrack, Pet Sounds is song 133.

That's a cool choice. The two instrumentals on the Pet Sounds album don't get that much recognition compared to the other songs, I believe.
I remember watching a documentary about the underwater scene of Hawaii years ago and was surprised when "Let's go away for a while" was played nearly in it's entirety during some fascinating underwater shots.

Good Vibrations plays over the end credits of the most recent episode of Willow (on Disney+) oddly enough.

Netflix's Outer Banks 3 (never head of it) has Sloop John B in its trailer on YouTube. Actually some interesting cutting and mashing of the song. The trailer was suggested to me by the algorithm and I guess I am glad I took the bait.
