Review: EMILY IN PARIS Season 2 Where La Dame PiPi Changed Everything For Me

Bienvenue to season two of Emily in Paris where the writers basically say: Screw you! We all complained so bitterly about last season but still binged it in droves, so the writers have no hesitation about hurling the same colorful dreck at us again this season.

Review: Prospects Are Good For Enjoying AN ASTROLOGICAL GUIDE FOR BROKEN HEARTS

Look, is An Astrological Guide for Broken Hearts going to win awards? Honestly, ever since Emily in Paris got nominated for an Emmy, I don’t even try to guess about what will and won’t win awards.

Thrilling because it's about a group of teenage girls protesting the casual misogyny and sexual assault teenage boys perpetrate at their school without any repercussions. Disappointing because teenage boys getting away … Continue reading Review: “Moxie” Made Me Feel Many Feelings

Review: My Feelings About “Firefly Lane” Are Not As Glowing As I Hoped

Content Warning: The series (but not this review) contains graphic representations of sexual assault. The constant switching between time frames was often difficult for my brain to process and may be a problem for other people as well. I've never been inside a glitching time machine, but I'm guessing it would feel a bit like … Continue reading Review: My Feelings About “Firefly Lane” Are Not As Glowing As I Hoped
