JOIN US ON PATREON: patreon.com/ivebeenmeaningtowatch In this episode of I've Been Meaning to Watch That, Jocelyn, AKA Joc's Watchlist, talks about Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. "Hi, everyone! I'm Jocelyn, also known as Joc's Watch List on TikTok and Instagram. I talk about TV shows and movies, review them, and give recommendations. I also share a daily TV show guide, so if you're ever running out of things to watch, come follow me!" First things first: in the Can't Wait to Watch segment, we talk about the upcoming DC movie, Blue Beetle, in the shadow of recent DC drama. We're hoping that Blue Beetle will break the trend of DC's underperforming releases when it comes out in August. We also get into Warner Brothers' new plan to license HBO original series to Netflix. Is this a bad idea? What does it mean for the HBO-exclusive series? Is Netflix's “One Home Per Account” plan worth it? Is it time to cancel our subscriptions? Which streaming platform should we pick? Does Peacock offer good value? Hear our thoughts on Atlanta Housewives, our predictions for the upcoming Challengers movie after watching the trailer, the next seasons of Euphoria, our beef with HBO's The Idol, and other shows that we enjoyed – including The Sex Lives of College Girls, Never Have I Ever, Mr. Malcolm's List, and we reminisce about old shows. Then, we get into the main topic of the show: Queen Charlotte. How many episodes should it have had? We're not too surprised at the show's success, because, let's be honest, it's Shonda Rhimes, and the actors were also incredible. We're glad that Bridgerton is introducing black characters into period dramas, but should Julia Quinn be making money from the diversity in the shows? We look at how Queen Charlotte's priorities have changed as she aged, we try to piece together what the other characters' lives would've looked like if the show had been longer, and we try to imagine Queen Charlotte's origin story. In the final segment, Watchlist, we go through the shows that we're excited about and our recommendations. Timestamps [00:28] A bit about Joc's Watchlist. [01:09] Can't wait to watch: Blue Beetle.

We interrupt our regularly scheduled Riverdale recaps to bring you one of the most controversial new shows of 2023 -- HBO's The Idol. If there was an Oscar for Most Criminally Squandered Premise, this show would take the cake. Pieces of plot keep trying to shine through, but they are quickly extinguished by the Weeknd's rat tail and Lily-Rose Depp's nipples. Despite our best efforts, we couldn't explain this one but damn it, we spent almost two hours trying. If anyone can help us figure out why this happened, please get in touch via our social media so we can start sleeping through the night again. Don't forget to rate and subscribe!

There's been a lot of buzz about the latest show to fill HBO's prestigious Sunday night slot, The Idol. Co-created by a team including Euphoria's Sam Levinson and Canadian pop-icon the Weeknd, the series follows a pop star played by Lily Rose Depp who's working on her comeback after a mental health crisis. For transcripts of this series, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts But what was initially sold as a sexy satire of the music industry's dark underbelly has been panned by critics and mocked on the internet. Today, Vox senior correspondent Alex Abad-Santos and Lucy Ford, a culture writer with British GQ, take us through the series so far and why it's garnering attention for all the wrong reasons.
On this weekend's What to Watch: The premieres of Netflix's Is It Cake Too and Nimona, Amazon Prime Video's Jack Ryan season 4, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, and the season finale of Apple TV+'s Silo.

And we're back! This week, we're exploring the increasingly blurred lines between entertainment and porn, diving into the critical reactions surrounding HBO's show, "The Idol," and the controversial social media app, OnlyFans. The Idol, featuring Lily Rose Depp and The Weeknd, and directed by Sam Levinson, has been promoted by HBO as a "revelatory take on the cult of the music industry." Yet all the internet is talking about is that the show seems to perpetuate a toxic male fantasy, raising questions about the true motivations of HBO and the creators. Is it genuine artistic expression or blatant sexual exploitation of women? Meanwhile, the online gossip surrounding models and actresses funding their lifestyles through OnlyFans adds to the ongoing debate: When does entertainment cross the line into porn? Join us as we navigate erotic thrillers, bad acting, cult classics and the real world impact of screen and digital sex. P.S. If you love 90s erotic films or are curious about this era, we highly recommend checking out the podcast "You Must Remember This" and specifically the "Erotic 90s" season. It was a brilliant resource during our research for this episode. http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/ Full transcript here: https://www.straighttothecommentspodcast.com/post/entertainment-or-porn-from-hbo-s-the-idol-to-onlyfans Follow us on Instagram for news and behind-the-scenes @s2tcpodcast If you like the show, please rate or review it and don't forget to share it.
