When Hanbada takes on a case involving ATMs, it cements for Woo Young-woo the type of attorney she wants to be. Episode 6, "If I Were a Whale" focuses on a North Korean defector and the power of a mother's love.
That castle was dark, dank, and full of treason. Delicious, frustrating, dragon-killing treason. Alicent is ready to usurp Rhaenyra's crown before she ever gets to wear it based on a misunderstanding, but draws the line at not being involved in the planning all along... despite knowing ALL ALONG this is what her father was going to do. Criston Cole continues to murder with impunity and Rhaenys is very selective about who she murders with her dragon (but whatever; it looked amazing). Oh, and we h...
Saeroyi helps those around him in order for his new business location to succeed; after Geun-won messes up again, Jang has to choose between his son and his company.
Vaemond said the quiet part out loud. War soon come.
Carol and Negan rush to find leverage against Hornsby.
There was so much treason going on. And that child just colonized a dragon.
Saeroyi stays a step or two ahead of Jang with the help of a not-so-secret-anymore alliance. We finally get a bit of Toni's storyline and the prejudice and racism he faces as a Black Korean.
Attorney Woo defends an autistic young man accused of murdering his brother, and we see the origins of the bestest besties.
Ten years later and Criston Cole is still employed and still a whiny, masogynistic bitch and petty Queen Alicent is only too willing to fuel his insecurities as he fuels hers.
I'm not holding my breath that I'll get it, but I'm shipping Saeroyi and Yi-seo something fierce. Saeroyi continues to be the type of character who brings out the best in those around him -- making him the natural enemy of someone like Jang who poisons everyone -- and it's going to be interesting to see if his ragtag crew can really pull this off.
So happy I got the family to sit down and watch what has become one of my favorite k-dramas. Here, we get to know Woo Young-woo, the first autistic attorney in South Korea, through her first two cases.
No one wants off this mortal coil more than Viserys Targaryen and we get it.
The only thing open during the hour of the owl is legs.
Yi-seo has entered the chat and just like that our alliance has shifted. Hey, we're a sucker for a wild child with no filter. On the slow burn revenge front: FIFTEEN years? Saeroyi has a 15-year plan to take down Jang. This man has been living off nothing but petty and spite. And we approve.
All a king wants to do is celebrate the second name day of the son he had with his daughter's bestie. Oh, and marry said daughter off to a Lannister frat boy. He doesn't want to be bothered with a war that he's losing or quieting the whispers that call for his daughter's removal as his heir. And that's why we won't have nice things and I can't believe dragons will die for this. Speaking of dragons... Those Targaryen boys just built different. Fueled by nothing but petty spite, Daemon ended the w...
We end the season with the Paper Girls separated, but with a clear mission: don't invent time travel! No idea where Mac and KJ were sent (hopefully someplace without dinosaurs), but Tiffany and Erin are in the '70s. I hope it's kind to little Black and Chinese girls.
If there's one thing King Viserys is gonna do every time, it's make the wrong damn decision. Not that marrying a 12-year-old would be BETTER... What he needs to do is worry about those festering wounds and just let his daughter learn to rule from someone who actually knows how to do it. But, alas... he's in love or whatever. Thankfully, Corlys and Daemon are both over it and it looks like we'll get some action dragon next week. And can we please, please, please keep precious Laena away from King...
Adult Tiff is amazing and we're happy KJ found someone to talk to about her love of "movies."
Set nearly 200 years before they did my girl Dany dirty (I’m not interested in arguing with you about this), House of the Dragon is follows the events in George RR Martin’s 2018 book Fire & Blood — the first of two volumes detailing the rise and fall of the Targaryen dynasty. Because the show begins at the halfway point of volume one, we don’t get to see Aegon and his sister-wives bring Westeros to heel. Instead, we’re in the year 101 A.C. when King Jaehaerys I names his grandson Viserys the...
We love an old-fashioned tale of revenge and when it comes with a side of questioning class, privilege, and belonging in South Korea, even better. And if it stars Park Seo-Joon? Well, now Itaewon Class is just showing off. We were instantly invested in the relationship between Park's ex-con turned bar owner Park Saeroyi and his hardworking, generous father played by Son Heung-Ju. To be a week ahead with our Itaewon Class podcasts, subscribe to Project Fandom on Patreon....
We knew the inappropriate yet oddly sweet bro-sis reunion would be short-lived, but it still sucked to see Mac bawling on the back of that bike. Next up? Just how disappointing will future Tiff be?
Even though the episode hit all the beats of a series premiere (origins of the hero’s power, training montage, etc.), it still felt like a 30-minute cold open and that’s fine. It set up the quirky tone of the show nicely with hints of higher stakes and bigger dangers to come. Tatiana Maslany shines, but those of us who loved Orphan Black expected as much. This a special free listen to our Premium coverage of She-Hulk. To listen to us discuss the full season, subscribe on Patreon....
Not having read the graphic novel series, my anticipation for Netflix’s live-action adaptation of The Sandman was based on solely on my love of Neil Gaiman’s other works ( American Gods) , the visuals in the trailer, and the diversity of the cast. Everything delivered in the first two episodes. Charles Dance’s Roderick Burgess was like if Tywin Lannister went to Hogwarts — and you know he’d have been Slytherin — and Tom Sturridge is about to AMSR his way into reading some Buzzfeed thirst tweets....
We doubled up and covered two episodes this week because Paper Girls is just so damn good. The time travel, healing robotic insects, and giant mech are all cool, but the best moments continue to be the ones in which the girls bond. Those scenes are so well-written and the actors bring them to life in a way that feels natural. A few highlights include KJ calling out Mac for the hate speech she repeats, Mac and Erin clearing the air after that whole “you shot me in the gut” thing, and the four new...
In Money Heist Korea: Joint Economic Area, the reunification of North Korea and South Korea promises economic prosperity for all. In reality, the rich got richer, the poor got poorer, and in that widening gap a criminal mastermind hatched a plan.
What we have coming up this week and beyond. Send show feedback to [email protected].
Based on the graphic novel by Brian K. Vaughan and Cliff Chiang, Paper Girls is a live-action 8-episode series set in the '80s and follows four girls on their morning paper route. Too bad it's the morning of Hell Day.
We take a break from all the murder with two thoughtful, but still hilarious, episodes focusing on Bunny's surprising connections with those around her and a look into the interrupted father-daughter bond between Charles and Lucy. We might be back to murder soon enough as it seems the newly released Teddy is Will's real father?
Don't judge us.
So, Bunny's mom did it, right? Also, if there's a next victim, I nominate Amy Schumer.
