GINNY & GEORGIA S2: Stomps Out the GILMORE GIRLS Comparisons, Gets Darker, Messier, More Interesting

CW: Self-harm, depression, disordered eating, domestic violence, gun violence. I like the way the second season of Ginny and Georgia, whether intentionally or not, crushes any remaining tired comparisons to the Gilmore Girls under it's heel like some discarded chili cheese fries from Luke's Diner. This season also dispenses with cute hideouts behind loose floorboards … Continue reading GINNY & GEORGIA S2: Stomps Out the GILMORE GIRLS Comparisons, Gets Darker, Messier, More Interesting

EMILY IN PARIS S3: Clatters Forward Like a Drunk American Abroad Wearing Platform Heels on a Parquet Floor

Oui, oui, bon chérie, we have arrived at Emily in Paris Saison 3, which is essentially tied together with loose threads from Emily's clothes, Genetically Blessed cheekbones, and the viewers' gristly determination to see this fucker through until the assuredly absurd end. A question before we dig further into this pile of, erm, episodes: Is … Continue reading EMILY IN PARIS S3: Clatters Forward Like a Drunk American Abroad Wearing Platform Heels on a Parquet Floor

Review: LOVE & ANARCHY (Kärlek & Anarki) is So Good That I’ve Watched it Twice…So Far

I almost missed out on Love and Anarchy. The trailer, as trailers often do, strips the series of its depth and pacing, which left me thinking it would be a lot of awkward angles and sucker punches.

Title image for WITH LOVE. On the steps of a house, leading up to a front porch with twinkle lights wrapped around the large porch pillars, Jorge and Henry are kneeling on the lowest step. Behind them and to the viewers left stand Sol and Miles. To the viewer's right is Nick. Above him are Jorge, Sr. and Beatriz and next to them are Lily and Santiago. The words over them read: TO JOY. TO FAMILIA. TO LIFE. with love.

Delicious as they are, you're likely needing something that, while still delectably romantic, has a bit more complexity and heft to ease you out of the holidaze. Or perhaps you're just … Continue reading Review: WITH LOVE is the Perfect Binge-Watch Antidote to Your Holiday Binging
