Welcome back to Schitt with Money!
This week, Peita and Emma are diving into Season 1, Episode 8: Allez Vous - where the Rose family gets their first real taste of earning money in Schitt’s Creek. Or, at least, trying to.
In This Episode:
🚗💼 Johnny hits the unemployment office – After a very Roland-style road trip and a hilariously awkward encounter with Marnie, Johnny tries to get government support… and a little dignity back.
🧴🥂 Moira and David get MLM’d – David gets sucked in by shiny serums and champagne-coloured dreams. Moira sees the scam a mile away—but even she ends up giving the sales pitch of the century.
🎭📦 Desperate Housewives and struggling actors, unite – Allez Vous takes over Schitt’s Creek. But it turns out... everyone’s an agent.
💍🤔 Alexis starts to question Ted – Is this relationship really what she wants? Or is Mr Perfect maybe too perfect?
Schitt We Learned:
💸 Not all “opportunities” are actually opportunities. MLMs sell dreams, not products. The real money’s in getting you to join.
🎭 Main character energy can come from the most surprising places. Roland struts into the unemployment office like he’s James Bond, and somehow wins.
🧠 Retirement and identity crises go hand in hand. Johnny's struggle to adjust without a CEO title mirrors real-life clients trying to rediscover who they are beyond their career.
💬 Shiny branding doesn’t equal value. Whether it’s beauty products or crypto, if it promises quick wins and exclusivity, it’s probably dodgy.

Carl’s Funeral – Who is Carl? Why is Johnny suddenly in charge? Let’s just say… the town’s definition of "funeral" is flexible at best.
Until next time…
Remember: not every money-making idea is a business. Sometimes it’s just a cult in pastel packaging. 💁♀️
