List of Half in the Bag episodes

The fourth season of movie review series Half in the Bag originally aired starting on October 7, 2013 and concluded August 15, 2014. The season consists of 17 regular episodes, 1 special episode, and 3 commentary tracks featuring the cast. Episode extras, such as outtakes, deleted material, and behind-the-scenes, which were a staple of Season 3, were released as exclusives for Patreon subscribers starting May 5, 2014.[1][2]

Production of seasons three and four of Half in the Bag coincided with production of the Space Cop feature[1] and the introduction of the ensemble B-movie review series, Best of the Worst.

After learning about Mr. Plinkett's lawsuit against the city for unlawful demolition, Mike and Jay help Plinkett with a place to stay and plan to help themselves to his potential settlement. Their plan hits a snag when Plinkett apparently dies of a heart attack. Using Plinkett's rotting corpse, they must fool the police and Plinkett's lawyer in order to steal Plinkett's millions. Along the way, the unscrupulous duo attempt many other get-rich schemes.
