    R.I.P. Karl...fashion may be dead, but Andie's thigh-high Chanel boots in The Devil Wears Prada will live forever. We disagreed HUGELY on this movie - is it a cautionary tale of workplace bullying and harassment or an aspirational model for no-nonsense boss bitches everywhere?

    Hello, Sidney! The seminal teen slasher film Scream came out in 1996 and it holds up as a surprise feminist triumph, filled with empowered female characters taking no shit from their colleagues/classmates/boyfriends/stalkers. It's also a legit fright-fest with a grungy soundtrack and cool cameos.

    She's All That, starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook, had a very simple, unoriginal premise...make-over the dorky girl and lay bets on her virginity and popularity. Ew. PRO: It's only 90 minutes long and the Fat Boy Slim dance scene is still cool. Packed with one-dimensional characters, dodgy hair extensions and nostalgic circa-1999 fashion (hello boob tubes and frosted lipstick), join the BP girls on a hate-watch of She's All That and reminisce about the first time you cut your own fringe.

    School's out! Can't Hardly Wait was one of the defining teen party movies of the 90s. On the surface, this film had it all: nerds getting revenge, virginal sweethearts, sexy dancing to RnB, wiggas with wallet chains, bonehead jocks learning about feelings, and a spontaneous song and dance scene. Plus a sweet love story about a hopeful young guy chasing his dream girl. The BP girls dissect this iconic teen movie scene by scene - was the party as good as we remember?

    Grace and Frankie is the hugely successful Netflix comedy show that celebrates women of a certain age who don't necessarily want to grow up. Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda look fabulous at 78 and 80 (!), and it has a lot to do with Hollywood's secret 'Beauty Work' effect -  a specialised photoshopping process that helps already-beautiful women look smoother, tighter and younger on screen. Does this kind of digital trickery reinforce impossible beauty standards even into retirement, or is it perfectly fine for a woman to use everything at her disposal to look her best no matter what her age? Does 'embracing ageing' mean we have to bare all?

    The original Roseanne was praised for being a realistic portrayal of a working class family in America. Crass, opinionated and brash, the character of Roseanne was nothing like the idealised on-screen mothers before her and we loved her for it. The Roseanne of today is a real-life Trump supporter with problematic - even dangerous - views, and an influential celebrity profile. Her politics can't be ignored, so should we switch off from nostalgia and the new reboot?
