Sometimes you just gotta have a great chic show to watch. Where people say inappropriate things that you totally get. These are the rare finds and popular shows that have spoken to me recently.
Everyone is watching this, but... it's SO good. I'm rooting for Conrad more than anyone (including Belly). There is something about the music, the beach, Conrad, it just takes you back to being young and dumb in relationships.
Laid: Peacock
I'm furious this show was canceled for a second season. The creative storyline, the witty one liners, the interpersonal relationships. Eff you Peacock! If you haven't seen this you're missing out. The basic gist is all the guys she's slept with are showing up dead....in order.
Too Much: Netflix
Another one getting rave reviews. Lena Dunham does it again! Girls for the next generation? I think so. There is no perfect characters and all can be extremely relatable if sometimes on the extreme side. The lead actress, Megan Stalter, is chef's kiss.
The Gilded Age: HBO Max
A period piece, soap opera, based on actual people who lived in New York City during the Gilded Age. New money vs. old money. The outfits. The sets take you back. It's fancy, but isn't always classy. I don't know, I love it.
The Great: Hulu
Another period piece, sorry not sorry. This one based on Russian Emperor's wife, Catherine the Great. Elle Fanning shines as the newlywed princess who is naive in the worldly ways. Nicholas Hoult is outstanding as the dumb ass king bumbling his way through a privileged life. You'll fall for him even though you don't want to.
The Buccaneers on Apple TV+
Based on five New York girls who travel to England to find husbands. The girls are rich, so they are highly sought after by poor noblemen. The music is current, the outfits are old, their attitudes on sex, dating and marriage are hilarious. Bad decisions=entertainment. I am very pro The Duke, which may not match up with most.
