Alana & Shay are in the final half of Hulu’s The Girl From Plainville . The ladies are in agreement that the last two episodes (5 & 6) could have been smooshed together. With Alana walking around and Shay looking at her phone, their interest kind of waned this week. Which is interesting, considering it was the start of the trial episodes. There were some high points, like Elle Fanning nailing Michelle Carter’s new walk and the actress playing Conrad’s mom absolutely rocking it, but the S...

Alana & Shay are in the final half of HBO’s The Staircase ! Episode 5 was much of the same for Shay, but episode 6 FINALLY pulled her out of her phone and glued her eyes to the screen. A new theory in Kathleen Peterson’s death allowed Shay’s number one fear (birds) to become a *possible* reality. However, Alana isn’t so sure. Speaking of unsuredness (that’s a word, right?), there’s a certain scene in the episodes of Hulu’s The Girl From Plainville that had the ladies scratching their heads a...
