I Hate It, Let’s Watch It

And they all lived happily ever after! Or did they? Of course, they did. This is Bridgerton. It's the season finale, so it's time for a wedding (as long as you stick around through the credits because apparently it wasn't important enough to include in the actual episode). Araminta gets a mild scolding in private for her hideous crimes, and we're somehow supposed to be cool with that, and...what's this?? A NEW Lady Whistledown is on the scene?? Who could it be? Guess you'll have to tune in again when we cover Season 5 in two years. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

Our prediction chickens are starting to come home to roost! The NEW Lady Penwood's identity is revealed. The Queen has a change of...whatever she has instead of a heart. Benedict makes an earth-shattering discovery (all because of a NECKLACE). And somebody gets engaged! Who could it be?? Tune in to find out! Also, April 16th is International Documentary Day, so stay with us to the end to hear our solid gold rec's for jaw-dropping documentaries you have to see to believe.

Our little Bridgerton babies are all grown up! Gregory and Hyacinth steal the show this week with their adorable wide-eyed fascination around the delicate process of wooing a partner. Neither should be seeking advice from Benedict, however, as he needed both Will Mondrich AND his brothers to beat some sense into that beautifully smooth brain of his before he could make a move regarding Sophie. And what a move it is. There's no turning back now, especially with the Queen's unwitting spy lurking outside the door... Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

For the love of God, will SOMEONE please slap some sense into Benedict?! The man still cannot put two and two together to realize who Sophi is, even though he has extra time to examine her now that she is a lady's maid in the Bridgerton home (another bright idea from Benedict). If you think that's bad enough, wait until you hear his indecent proposal... Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

Things are heating up a bit in episode 3 with a little carriage sex and all this scandalous talk of pinnacles! Benedict and Sophie are even getting in on the fun with some casual nudity and a stolen kiss. But none of this is without its complications as the Maid Wars escalate, plunging the entire ton into chaos. We suspect there could be a convenient vacancy for Sophie somewhere close by where she can stay until Benedict finally uses his eyeballs and realizes who she is.

It's Episode 2, and we're pleased to announce that things are starting to cook. We get Sophie's tRaGiC bAcKsTorY, Benedict's spirited search for his mystery lady, and a side story involving the toxic friendship between Lady Danbury and the Queen. While we're happy to get the story moving along, there were a lot feelings going on this week that weren't very happily ever after. Will Benedict realize what's right in front of his stupid(handsome) face once he sobers up? Stay on our Bridgerton journey and find out with us next week!

Off to a slooooooooooow start this season despite finally getting Dawn's favorite Bridgerton boy in the spotlight. We're crossing our fingers that things are about to start heating up because cheesy masquerade balls and knock-off fairytale plots aren't quite doing it for us. Come along with us as we ONCE AGAIN follow a rake's metamorphosis into a respectable gentleman after meeting "the right woman." (eyeroll) Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

Just like so many of the men on this show, Season 5 promised A LOT and simply did not deliver. We will try to make this finale episode interesting for you all, but Emily did not make that easy for us. A botched non-proposal, a successful(?) proposal, and a deadbeat husband are our holy trinity of mindless drama this week, and we can't say that we're excited to see where Season 6 will take us after this. What we can say is that, somehow, all roads still lead to Gabriel... Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

It's all business in these episodes with a side of Pride. Marcello pops up in Paris with ambitions to start his own fashion line, and he somehow finds jobs for all of our main characters, which is going to make for pretty strange bedfellows. Mindy meddles in Emily's relationship with Marcello, Sylvie finds herself in a friendship faux pas, and does Julien finally have a love interest?? Now we love to see a Paris Pride parade, but here's your warning to shield your eyes from Emily's hideous wig. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

Ah, there's no place like home! While we are thrilled to be back in Paris, Emily is somewhat less enthusiastic given that her job has basically whittled down to controlling Antoine's ridiculous temper tantrums AND she finally discovers that all of her friends and colleagues have been lying to her about Mindy and Alfie's budding relationship. But one night of fireworks and Funions with fellow ex-pat Jake helps her realize that friendship conquers all (at least until she realizes she has a crush on him and the cycle begins again because if there's one thing we can count on from this show, it's zero character development).

In the wise, immortal and paraphrased words of Julien, Rome wasn't built in a day but it took Emily basically that long to destroy it. Although, to be fair, she had some help. Luc and his casual womanizing ways sink the Bavazza account, and newcomer Princess Gianna puts Solitano a little too much on the map and, with an assist from "precious genius" Giancarlo, ruins the company's future with Muratori. Marcello finally reveals HIS true colors (they are not nice), and with all this going on, we could not agree more that it is time to beat a hasty retreat to Paris before Genevieve manages to set what's left of the office on fire.

We're back! We could never leave you, our precious listeners, to go through the trauma of a fifth season of Emily in Paris alone, so we have ended our hiatus and begun our glorious return to the airwaves to help you process this garbage. We are off to a bit of a slow start here in Season 5 with mostly recycled plotlines and yawn-worthy relationship drama, but we do see some storm clouds on the horizon (looking at you, Genevieve) so stick with us and we can weather it all together! Thank you for your patience over the past year! While we do hate Emily, we love doing this podcast for you all, and we are so glad to be back. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

If you thought this year's Super Bowl was boring, we challenge you to endure the 99 minutes of Sidelined: The QB & Me and then come talk to us. Formulaic, cheesy, and completely devoid of any real conflict, this fumble of a film misses the mark in every direction.

We dug up a hidden gem for y'all this week. The Estate is a surprisingly successful black comedy with brilliant acting and scriptwriting, and it is a refreshing change of pace from our usual fare. A famous face here and there adds a bit of spice, and the third act plot twist will both delight and astonish you. Can't recommend enough that you all check this one out!

We have to admit -- it takes a very creative mind to work excessive violence, S&M kink, and Elon Musk into a Cinderella story. But we also must ask the question, just because it can be done, does that mean it should be done? No. Unequivocally no. We're back to our regularly scheduled nonsense this week with Cinderella's Revenge, and while we weren't exactly impressed, it was a vast improvement over mega-snoozefest that was Megalopolis.

Of all the bullets we've taken for you, our precious listeners, this one has to be the biggest. Megalopolis promised A LOT and delivered...moving sidewalks. A star-studded cast and critically acclaimed director could not save this pretentious exercise of elitism from its own inaccessibility, and we learned that lesson repeatedly over the 138-minute run time. Save yourselves -- listen to our recap, if not simply so that our sacrifice was not made in vain. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe!

Very few podcasts would dare to touch the controversial topics we cover in this episode, such as robot fluids, the line between infidelity and sex toys, and how anyone thought "Nick" was the appropriate name for Italian Stallion, Michele Morrone. We gave Megan Fox one more chance to change our minds, and even though we found her performance as an emotionless robot more believable than her other human characters, the whole movie falls flat in the wake of several other films and tv shows that have already done this premise and done it way better.

Our search for Megan Fox's redemption continues! We're giving her as many chances as we can, including this 2021 horror/action flick, which didn't quite hit the mark but was a vast improvement over Midnight in the Switchgrass.
