Outside of one or two moments which are eye roll worthy, The Bold Type remains consistent. All the while setting us up for the idea, not everything will be an obstacle these girls can overcome. Because sometimes the “enemy” is genetics. Collected Quote(s) “Prevention is always better than treatment.” “Fear causes bad behavior.”

Best Of My motto in life has always been: If somebody says “No,” you’re talking to the wrong person. — “Episode 10: Kris Jenner” Never Before with Janet Mock When you’re a fairly friendless child, […] you develop really intense relationships with media. — “Episode 5: Lena Dunham.” Never Before with Janet Mock “I had already…
And so it begins. Riri starts to realize she may be falling for Yukari but can he feel the same about her? Especially when the government isn’t watching?

The big questions within Landline are how long a relationship can last? How strong can it be when faced with all the people you could be with, the failings of yourself or the other person, alongside the possibility of boredom? And lastly, can being chosen or choosing that other person be enough?

While the jokes keep coming, a handful of serious moments remind you of some of the issues Raven is facing raising a family on her own. With help from Chelsea which can only be chalked up to good intentions.
I never thought I would find myself calling a show a “Guilty Pleasure.” If only because I operate on the Shonda Rhimes definition which is “[…] like saying ‘I’m embarrassed to say I watch it but I can’t stop.’” However, Daytime Divas is such a mess. Of which Vanessa Williams barely keeps everything together and,…
The Story of 90 Coins is the type of short you want to see become a full-length feature. For just the way it makes your heart beat quicken and brings tears to your eyes in just 9 minutes, it is like you are the one experiencing the whirlwind that is falling in love.
Ozark isn’t for everyone. It requires patience to get into and, outside of the character of Ruth, it is hard to guarantee you’ll grow to like it.
With getting electrocuted, and meeting a former classmate who is a doctor, Bobby seems to want to take his life seriously now. The only problem? He is a Carmichael so he gets absolutely no support. Except from Maxine.
The midseason finale deals with all the fallout for what has happened since the season began. Be it where Remy and Charley stand, with what happened to Micah, alongside Ralph Angel’s big reveal and how he handled it.
How can two people be so oblivious? That is what you are going to ask yourself once the episode is over. That and how big of a creep is Fujiwara?
As Virginia comes up with an elaborate tale of what happened to her, Uncle Daddy also works up some manipulation to get what he wants for this situation.
Though I consume so many hours of media weekly, I still find it amazing when a movie or show has a moment that gets me teary eyed or inspired. For, to be honest, sometimes I just feel like I’m on autopilot but then there is Wednesday and Thursday morning when I usually watch The Bold…
Daytime Divas cleans it up for a decent season finale. Not one to necessarily rave about but it was never really that type of show, was it?
Unfortunately, to hype the season finale, both the weakest and strongest character make a weird shift. One I’m not sure either can easily recover from.
During the camping trip, Ririna comes to the realization that, as Takasaki and Yukari’s relationship progresses, there may not be room for her. On top of some other things Nisaka, quite cruelly, says to her, it may change her willingness to play match maker.
Best Of Feeling like you are the subject and not the object is such a crazy shift in autonomy. — Kathryn Hahn – THR Full Comedy Actress Roundtable Hopefully, the goal in being yourself is that it puts you on the right path. — Sam Jones (The Off Camera Show) Lives are saved by tough…
Princess Principal, after a very strange delay, hits us with a very curt introduction of Chise and us learning that there are some who wonder if the Princess is a double agent.
My name is Amari and I’d like to hand in my #TeamLawrence card due to him being an F*** boy. Who do I need to talk to? […] No, I don’t wish to subscribe to #TeamIssa, though I do enjoy her storyline more than ever. Is there a #TeamMolly or even a #TeamTasha subscription available…
A long time coming reunion, another unfortunate death, and two of the biggest characters on the show coming face to face. We’re coming toward the end of the series and they are finding ways to up the ante. Leaving this fan to wonder, how epic could the series finale be?
Throughout chapters 3 to 5 of Surpassing Certainty, we finally get to see Janet experience a healthy relationship. Not one rooted in sex, being used, or anything like that, but the type of love which seemingly alluded her and seemed to be all but a Hollywood fabrication.
We finally learn the name of the Order of the Bronze Fang’s leader but we don’t necessarily learn why she is trying to start a war. Besides a love for chaos.
A nice boy who gets into a gang, becomes an addict, but through faith is healed. Yeah, prepare yourself for a slightly edgy feel good piece. One which is of the caliber of a Lifetime original movie.
I’m having a bit of a difficult time getting into this. If only because, while you can tell there maybe arcs and episode to episode storylines, the comedy is sort of dated. Also, Raven Home doesn’t have that, for a lack of a better term, cross over appeal where it can appeal to both Disney’s…
I’m honestly ashamed of myself for not continuing this from the pilot. However, with Game of Thrones, Insecure, and Netflix marathons, I felt I had to cut something. However, after watching episode two, I’m of the opinion I need to just figure out a way. Though, with all that said, trying to remember all that…
As Lady Gabriel becomes frustrated with losing power and there is a question of where Azazel went, we get to watch Charioce and Nina bond over a day and fall deeper in love.
The Incredible Jessica Jones is the type of film which definitely won’t be for everyone. Like with Girlboss, we are given a character who arguably can be narcissistic, but you can grow to love. Though I can’t guarantee with time that will be true for every last Netflix subscriber.
The only difference between most action movies and Atomic Blonde is Charlize Theron has a better choreographer/ stunt double than the rest. As for the story? While it has a few twists and turns, it isn’t anything which will make this more than a one and done.
The stigma of stripping is the topic of “Maxine’s Sister” and while there isn’t any interesting insight, we do at least get to meet more members of Maxine’s family.
With the rich characters we have been given on Queen Sugar, naturally, there is this desire to know of their past. To maybe get an episode featuring them as kids, teens, young adults. Get to see their interactions with their parents at those ages, and perhaps even Aunt Vi. However, that may not…
It seems my theory may not have been too far off as we see Hotaru with a patch over her eye and Fujiwara seems to be ready to move on.
Taking initiative, believing in yourself, and not giving up. Generally, these are framed messages in a school. Yet, with The Bold Type, they are made into real world examples. The kind you can really follow and inspire to incorporate into your life. For, as said in episodes 1 -3, this is a show made to…
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
