Scarlet Magazine isn't real. But according to former Cosmopolitan Editor Mia Freedman, it's as close to real as a television drama can get. If you're not too sure what we're talking about, you obviously haven't watched The Bold Type. But we're here to tell you that you need to. The Bold Type on Stan was inspired by the life of a former Cosmopolitan Editor-In-Chief Joanna Coles, and it follows three 20-something women, Sutton, Jane and Kat, who work at Scarlet magazine, a glossy title that’s movi...

Budd's new job sees him working in a specialist branch of London's Metropolitan Police Service, protecting British Home Secretary Julia Montague (played by Keeley Hawes).

Dolly Parton, beauty pageants and a message we'd love to see on the big screen more often. That's Dumplin', the film produced by Jennifer Aniston's company Echo Films following charismatic teenager Willowdean Dickson (Danielle Macdonald) on a song-filled journey of self-acceptance. Driven by the passion of her late Aunt Lucy, Willowdean struggles with identity, her overbearing Pageant-Queen-Mother (Jennifer Aniston), and body image issues far too common amongst teen girls. And with a splash of D...

We made it everyone! It's finale week!! After a season of Magic Mike wannabes, avocado funerals & the word FIT being so overused we never want to hear it again, it all came down to Todd and Taite. Bill was sent home (finally) after lying about his ex/current girlfriend Amy and Todd told Ali she wanted her to be the mother of her children. Which pretty much guaranteed he was dead man walking. The family met the final two and Taite told Ali he wasn't sure about all this marriage and babies tal...

It's hometown week for Ali and some of the men clearly missed the memo because they forgot to bring their families.

Paddy has left the Bachelorette mansion and hopefully that's the last time any of us ever have to hear the word "FIT." Osher's weird games have made a return and it looks like there's a new front-runner...Todd. We had a group date filled with horrible dancing (and Ivan wasn't even there), a visit to a fake apocalyptic wasteland and Ali beat up Charlie. There's a lot going on and Clare and Jessie Stephens are here to take you through it all. Bach Chat is a podcast by Mamamia. Find more shows here...

This week on The Bachelorette, Ali farewelled two perfectly good avocados along with Ivan, Jules and Danny. I think it's safe to say the next reality TV show we won't be seeing Ivan on is Masterchef. We were treated to bike building, a scavenger hunt and Ali's mates showed up to judge her taste in men. Bill survived the dreaded double date and Patty's stopped saying "FIT"...at least for now. So let's wade through the avocado mush and mourn the loss of a perfectly good food processor together as ...
