I Hate It, Let’s Watch It

Welcome to Hella Burger, home of the Hella Burger, can Horny take your order? While this movie certainly has its issues with storytelling, Drive Thru totally nails the vibe of being a high school student in the mid-2000s. Especially if your parents were assholes who bullied a kid TO DEATH and that kid came back in the form of a fast food restaurant mascot to get his revenge on you. Such a universa...

This week on the I Hate It, Let's Watch It: Spooky Season lineup, we have Suitable Flesh, and if you guessed that the featured monster of this horror flick would be a sex-crazed, body-swapping octopus demon, well, we're impressed. And we want to be friends. Heather Graham shines in this fairly predictable but stabbalicious thriller, and if we had only gotten a bit less gore and a lot more lore, it...

We're kicking off spooky season with Austria's first (and hopefully only) zombie movie that dares to ask the question...what if a snowmaking machine didn't make snow, but made zombies instead? If that sounds like a bad business plan to you, you'd be correct, and weirdly enough, it also makes for a bad movie. With 99% of the film's budget going straight to fake bloody viscera and bumpy skin growths...

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end and in our case, all bad things as well, which is why we haven't lost our minds (yet). It's the end of Season 4 of Emily in Paris and the end of our Parisian-centric episodes, but we're seeing more international destinations in our future so we can't be too sad about it. Are Emily and Gabriel over for good? Will Genevieve succeed in...whateve...

It's Christmas in Paris, and no one is getting what they want this year. Emily gets ditched on a ski slope, Sylvie gets a new roommate/employee in the form of Laurent's sketchy daughter from a previous relationship, and babies around the world will be getting rattles full of Maison Lavaux perfume in their stockings, so literally no one is happy, especially us. It's time to find out what Genevieve...

We hope you're not lactose intolerant because while Savoring Paris pretends to be a rom-com about an American woman searching for fulfillment and a grumpy Frenchman waiting for a second chance at love, it's actually a film about cheese. The plot, the scenery, the smells, the drama -- cheese is at the center of it all. While you better brie-lieve we love a gouda romance movie, this one falls just a...

When Stephen King takes to Twitter to declare a Netflix original shark movie with an objectively questionable premise "really quite good," you HAVE to vet it. So, we did. And we're here to tell you that it was, in fact, NOT quite good. It was actually quite bad, and we have the math to prove it. Without a strong core mission to hold it all together, Under Paris flails about in the water for 104 mi...

This week, we're wrapping up our coverage of Part 1 of Emily in Paris, and, man, have the discussion topics changed since last time. In classic EiP fashion, we're abruptly moving on from central plotlines like Alfie, Sylvie's survivor story, and pretty much everything we were worried about in the first three episodes to a bunch of things we didn't want to be worried about because we thought they w...

We're off to a rough start here in Season 4 of Emily in Paris, but buckle up because we're in it for the long haul. Between the tired love triangles, the cliched sit-com moments, and the inexplicable personality pivots, we're scared to see what the rest of Part 1 will bring us. Only one person can save us from this assured destruction, and it is our queen, Sylvie Grateau. (Okay, fine, two people -...

Ready or not, here she comes! Emily Cooper is BACK, which means we are freebasing champagne to prepare for yet another season of her ridiculous antics, but before we dive head-first into brand new chaos, we're here to get you caught up on all the Season 3 tea. Where did we leave off with Emily, Gabriel, Alfie, Mindy, and all our favorite Savoir pals?? Plus, we dissect the trailer for Season 4 and...

Depending on which one of your lovely podcast hosts you ask, this movie was either full-on CRINGE or unexpectedly amusing. But what we can agree on is that this movie was too long, Nicole Kidman was miscast, "Zara" was the wrong name for Joey King, and the film should have been released with Hallmark Channel's Christmas line-up. Let us know what YOU thought about this one on our socials! Don’t for...

DUDE! THIS MOVIE FRIGGIN' SUCKED! Offensive to all kinds of groups (astronauts, Floridians, people with nine toes, and basically anyone with more than two brain cells), Space Cadet spreads the dangerous message that all it takes is a total lack of self-awareness and a sprinkle of creative thinking to become an astronaut. This one misses the mark by a lightyear due to its unreasonable demand that t...

The movie equivalent of a Kardashian, Mother of the Bride is pretty to look at but DAAAMN, SHE BE DUMB! Jam packed with succulent eye candy (Brooke Shields, Benjamin Bratt, CHAD MICHAEL MURRAY) and the stunning backdrop of Thailand, you'd think this 90-minute Netflix rom-com would be a cute and funny yet profound study on what sexuality and relationships mean to women as they age, but you would be...

We've reached the end of our Bridgerton project (for now), and there are both celebrations (primarily from Lisa) and tears (exclusively from Dawn). We'll give you all the tea on whether Cressida decided to take the high road; whether Colin could put his hot air balloon-sized ego aside long enough to let Penelope clean up her own messes; and, if Francesca and John's wedding really went as smoothly...

It's the "Pen"-ultimate episode of Season 3, and Lady Whistledown's situation is more precarious than ever. Can Penelope convince Colin to become Lord Whistledown or must she accept her fate as "just a Bridgerton," which (let's be real, girl) is not the end of the world? Will Cressida send the whole house of cards toppling to the ground for a shot at a better life? Will the Mondriches snub yet ANO...

Apologies, dear listeners, for the unexpected delay in bringing these latest episodes to you but we assure you that it was worth the wait! All hell is breaking loose in the world of Bridgerton as pressure is building on Lady Whistledown to reveal herself and we suddenly have not one but two couples ready to take that stroll down the aisle. If this show knows how to do anything correctly, it's how...

We're halfway through the season and all of Colin and Penelope's building sexual tension finally comes to head...or should we say, a finger? (Or two.) It's zero to sixty from a diddle in the carriage to a ring on the finger, but who cares how we got there once we get there? With four episodes to go, we await the inevitable second act twist in which Lady Whistledown must reveal her secret. We're al...

Despite inflating our hopes last week with that steamy kiss, Mission Polination slows down this week to the pace of an escaping hot air balloon. And speaking of hot air, both Cressida and Penelope are full of it as they compete for Lord Debling's affections, and we get nothing but air from Francesca, who finds her soulmate in John Stirling and simply breathes in his presence for a few moments befo...

Things take a turn for the worse this week as Penelope is forced to out her own charm school scandal in Lady Whistledown and we discover that the Featherington sisters know even less about making babies than Daphne Bridgerton, which is...an accomplishment. But there's a sliver of hope for all you Polinators out there because our featured couple FINALLY does something besides air sharing and longin...

Break out your antihistamines, gentle listeners, because it's Polin season on Bridgerton! We may have accidentally taken a drowsy formula because so far, Episode 1 has threatened to put us right to sleep. The only thing putting a pep in our step at this stage is Colin's inexplicable glow-up and Portia Featherington's determination to get buns in her daughters' ovens ASAP. Otherwise, we'll just be...

We made it to the finish line of what can only be described as both a marathon AND a sprint -- Fair listeners, we bring you the final installment of Bridgerton, Season 2, just in time for the drop of Season 3! We'll get you all caught up on Kate and Anthony (will they or won't they??), the most scandalous Featherington scam to date (trade rubies for palladium and it's basically a Hiram Lodge fanfi...

Mamma mia, here we go again. A little deja vu to start the second season of Bridgerton, as we get introduced to several new characters whose names we will struggle to remember as well as a number of perfectly reasonable misunderstandings that will surely lead to heartbreak and drama in the second half. Still, if there's one thing we can say with absolute certainty at this point (something we never...

And just like that, we are wrapping up Season 1 of Bridgerton, and let's just say, we had some THOUGHTS. Despite having just over 4 hours of show time, we are unsure of what we accomplished here in the second half of this first season besides a ton of parties, several man-child hissy fits, and a (possible) murder??? Oh, and we also found out who Lady Whistledown is, and if you want to know, too, y...

Oh, god -- it's happening. We're doing it. That's right, people. It is finally time for us to sink our teeth into the Netflix sensation known as Bridgerton. Our ambitious goal is to get fully up to speed on the first two seasons by the time Season 3 premieres in May, so hold on to your feathered hats because here we go! In Part 1 of our series, we get into the Who's Who of this cast of MANY simila...

If you're looking for a creative writing prompt, we recommend you watch The Strays and then write a novel to fill in all the blanks because this movie leaves quite a bit to the imagination. Perhaps if they had spent less time on itchy scalps, late-night Chinese food orders, and the most awkward game of Scrabble you've ever seen, we might be more satisfied with the story being told. But alas, here...
