I'll get the dinner party conversation started. Despite my serious aversion to anything involving zombies, I was seriously impressed by the writing/acting/directing on HBO's The Last of Us. Bella Ramsay and Pedro Pascal are the perfect post-apocalyptic pairing!

So true! The acting and the amazing visual element of the show really separated it from other "zombie" shows. Also some very heart-wrenching moments.

I have to admit that one of the TV shows that's totally been a source of guilty pleasure recently is Yellowjackets. Juliette Lewis alone is worth the watch. All I have to say is...NO RETURN, NO RETURN, NO REEEETURNNN!

We were so late to the Yellowjackets party, but once we started we were hooked! Christina Ricci is hilarious. Who knew cannibalism could be so entertaining?

Oh my god, I love it too! It’s a perfect storm of 90s tropes--cannibal kids, cults, zany detectives...and Melanie Lewinsky! Heavenly Creatures is one of my faves!

Heavenly Creatures is absolutely one of our faves as well. And she is so good in Yellowjackets, especially season two!

Yes! Love Heavenly Creatures! In my opinion, Peter Jackson's best film. I said it!

Congratulations on a great start to year 2 of your podcast.

I just binge watched 9 seasons of Seaside Hotel on PBS Masterpiece (yea PBS Passport). The series is a Danish drama comedy and I'm hoping for a season 10.

Seaside Hotel is new to us! Sounds right up our alley. We'll definitely have to check that out. (Cheers to the PBS passport!)
