The Runarounds (PILOT)

Jonas Pate walked outside with his family one day in Wilmington, North Carolina, and said… let’s make a band. Then he X-Factor-auditioned 5,000 kids and pieced together The Runarounds. Now that same band is playing fictional versions of themselves in a brand-new teen music drama that dropped September 1.

It’s not a direct Outer Banks spin-off, but it does take place in the same universe. On the podcast, we review the hour-long pilot, which follows Charlie Cooper and his bandmates post-graduation as they chase girls, gigs, and fame. We cover our comparisons (Daisy Jones & The Six, That Thing You Do, The Summer I Turned Pretty), share trivia and our rating.
