Inspired by her time as a student at the Connecticut girls' boarding school Rosemary Hall in the 1960s, the film follows new student Odette Sinclair (Gaby Hoffman) as she meets the ICONIQUE headmistress Miss McVane (Lynn Redgrave) and falls in with a new clique led by Kirsten Dunst's Verena Von Stefan. No sooner is Odie welcomed in than their friend Tweetie (my girl Heather Matarazzo) overhears the school board's plans to merge Miss Godard's into a co-ed school with the nearby St Ambrose Academy. This sets the films antics into motion, pits the boy crazy Tweetie and Tinka, an aspiring "actress-folk singer-slut", against Verena and brainiac Momo (our girl Merritt Wever) and eventually leads Odie to stage a sit-in to demand the girls at Miss Godard's have a voice in the future of their school.Brodie is joined by her bff Anton De Ionno to discuss the sad saga behind this film's release, its legacy in our lives and many spiritual connections to Gilmore Girls.See AlsosHaley Mlotek's piece in MetrographInterview with Sarah Kernochan in Business Insider + in Flashback Films26 years before The Holdovers, Disney buried the best boarding school comedyPeter Biskind's 2004 book Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance, and the Rise of Independent FilmAnton recommendsAn Unmarried WomanLove Is a Drag: For Adult Listeners Onlydry-humping Hosted on Acast.

The actor Merritt Wever ("Nurse Jackie") makes her first appearance on the podcast. She's joined by the co-director/co-writer of the film "Midday Black Midnight Blue" in which they both star and which premieres on demand on Friday, June 16th. Also film journalist and author Josh Karp returns to discuss his latest article in Airmail.
In this cinematic poem Midday Black Midnight Blue, Chris Stack stars as Ian, a loner on the edge of Puget Sound, grappling with long-held grief for a woman he loved Liv who died nearly two decades ago. Co-written and co-directed by Samantha Soule (Liv) and Daniel Talbott with Merritt Wever, it's a contemplative film about love and loss. Chris talked about how music plays an important role in his acting, and what it was like shooting on Whigby Island in Washington State. A consummate stage and film actor, some may know him as Tom Anderson in Interview With The Vampire, or as Dr. Michael McBain on One Life To Live, where he was shocked to learn of his 121 episodes on the beloved soap opera.

Über TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS reden Beate und Mel Darum geht's... Als wir Clare zum ersten Mal treffen, ist ihre Ehe mit ihrem Mann Danny kaum noch zu retten, ihre Teenager-Tochter Rae stößt sie von sich, und ihre einst vielversprechende Schriftstellerkarriere ist nicht mehr existent. Als ein alter Schriftsteller-Kollege sie bittet, die Ratgeberkolumne „Dear Sugar“ zu übernehmen, denkt sie, dass sie niemandem Ratschläge geben sollte. Nachdem sie jedoch widerwillig die Rolle von Sugar übernommen hat, entfaltet sich Clares Leben in einem komplexen Geflecht aus Erinnerungen, in denen sie die wichtigsten Momente ihrer Kindheit bis zur Gegenwart erkundet und die Schönheit, den Kampf und den Humor in ihren nicht verheilten Wunden entdeckt. Mit Sugar erschafft Clare eine Art Salbe für ihre Leser – und für sich selbst – und zeigt dadurch, dass wir nicht für immer verloren sind und unsere Geschichten uns letztendlich retten können. Und uns vielleicht auch wieder nach Hause bringen. In der Serie spielen Kathryn Hahn, Sarah Pidgeon, Quentin Plair und Tanzyn Crawford, mit Gastauftritten von Owen Painter, Merritt Wever, Elizabeth Hinkler und Michaela Watkins. Unsere Podcast-Review... Basierend auf dem Bestseller von Cheryl Strayed folgt TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS Clare (Kathryn Hahn), einer erfolglosen Schriftstellerin, die zu einer angesehenen Ratgeberkolumnistin wird, während ihr eigenes Leben in die Brüche geht. Alle acht Episoden der Serie werden ab 10. Mai exklusiv auf Disney+ zum Streamen verfügbar sein. Wir durften schon vorher reinschauen und sind uns mal wieder nicht ganz einig... Hört selbst!

Pour cette reco du weekend, on commence à retourner dans le passé avec des titres cultes, pas tout à fait récents. Cela fait maintenant un mois que Paramount+ a débuté en France, il est encore temps de profiter des sept jours d'essai gratuits pour tester ces trois séries incontournables. Blue Bloods Blue Bloods est une série qui fait son bout de chemin avec 10 saisons qui courent toujours. Le drame de CBS a redonné un nouvel élan de carrière à Tom « Magnum » Selleck. Se déroulant à New-York au sein de la famille Reagan, policier de père en fils, vous assisterez à la corruption, aux crimes et à la pression familiale de par leur situation. La formule CBS est tout de même respectée, il y a un aspect gentillet dans Blue Bloods qui peut faire rager malgré des affaires qui montrent la dualité des hommes. En effet, la série cherche à donner une morale positive aux spectateurs, qu'il faut avoir des principes à respecter même si on n'a pas toujours ce qu'on veut dans la vie. Cela fait une présence familière et familiale avec des personnages attachants auxquels on se raccroche comme à un phare en plein milieu de la nuit. Les acteurs sont excellents et les histoires de vie ne décrivent pas la police comme toute rose. https://youtu.be/bwaCTpIhHfM Oz Les six saisons d'Oz sont également disponibles sur Paramount+. Considérée comme l'une des OG des séries de criminels sur HBO, Breaking Bad ou Sur écoute pourraient passer pour des petits joueurs à côté. Bienvenue à Emerald City (ou le centre pénitencier Oswald), une zone expérimentale de la prison créé par Tim McManus qui souhaite améliorer les conditions de vie des détenus. Or, dans cet univers se recrée une société terrifiante où dominent la haine, la violence, la peur, la mort. Du jour au lendemain, tout peut basculer, de ses libertés à sa propre vie. La violence est vraiment omniprésente (d'ailleurs la série est interdite aux moins de 16 ans) mais pourtant elle parait naturelle dans un tel milieu. Créée en 1997 par Tom Fontana (probablement à ce jour sa série la plus connue), aujourd'hui encore les thématiques semblent toujours d'actualités avec cette violence, ce racisme et cette politique de plus en plus obstinée. Nurse Jackie Souvent considérée comme le pendant au féminin de Dr House, Nurse Jackie Peyton est une infirmière urgentiste expérimentée qui est aussi une droguée. C'est en 2009 que sort une nouvelle série médicale sur laquelle on ne misait pas forcément dans un paysage télévisuel où Urgences touchait à sa fin, Grey's Anatomy avait conquis les cœurs et Dr House était le petit prodige fraîchement arrivé. Jackie est accro aux anti-douleurs mais aussi au travail, elle passe sa vie aux urgences. Edie Falco trouvait un personnage sur mesure pour elle après son rôle inoubliable des Soprano. La dramédie a aussi été un tremplin pour Merritt Wever qui a décroché de nombreux autres rôles après la fin de la série dont Unforgettable. Jackie navigue dans sa vie dans le flou et contrairement à d'autres personnages, n'a pas envie forcément de se reprendre en main. Pourtant les aléas vont faire en sorte qu'elle change, tout en impactant ses collègues. https://youtu.be/aDFZhixDfxU Blue Bloods, Oz et Nurse Jackie ont chacun marqué les séries à leur manière et il serait dommage de passer à côté alors qu'elles sont toutes dispos sur Paramount+.

Machismo vs Feminismus könnte man die drei Serien in unserem heutigen Podcast zusammenfassen. Zum Auftakt sprechen Michael, Roland und Rüdiger über die neue Amazon-Serie "Outer Range" (3:20), für die Josh Brolin wieder mal den Cowboy-Hut aufsetzt und in eine "Yellowstone"-Variante mit "Lost"-Elementen gerät. Eine reizvolle Prämisse, gerade für Western-Fan Michael und Rauchmonster-Buddy Roland. Aber funktioniert der Genre-Mischmasch auch? Im Anschluss widmen sich Michael und Rüdiger der Netflix-Serie "Anatomie eines Skandals" (28:45), für die David E. Kelley wieder mal in den Gerichtssaal geht. Die Serie, in der ein schmieriger Politiker mit Vergewaltigungsvorwürfen konfrontiert wird, wäre gerne ein #metoo-Kommentar, setzt aber die falschen Schwerpunkte und macht unverzeihliche Fehler, die wir versuchen zu erklären. Und schließlich startet bei Apple TV+ die Anthologie "Roar" (46:15). In der Adaption feministischer Kurzgeschichten von Cecilia Ahern finden sich Nicole Kidman, Cynthia Erivo, Merritt Wever und der halbe "Glow"-Cast in bizarren Situation wieder wie "Die Frau, die Fotografien aß" oder "Die Frau, die von einer Ente gefüttert wurde". Michael und Rüdiger versuchen die positiven und negativen Ausreißer unter den acht Folgen zu finden.Cold-Open-Frage: "Wer könnte in einem ,Crown'-Prequel Queen Victoria spielen?"

This podcast covers New Girl Season 3, Episode 3, Double Date, which originally aired on October 1, 2013 and was written by Luvh Rakhe and directed by Max Winkler. Here's a quick recap of the episode:Nick, Jess, Cece, and Schmidt decide to go on a double date! However, Cece's concerned by Schmidt's weird behavior and it's not long until Schmidt's truth comes out. Winston doesn't want to feel left out and tries to secure a reservation for the Double Date +1. We discuss Pop Culture References such as:Lance Armstrong / Livestrong Bracelet - Jess was telling Cece she didn't think Schmidt was on drugs because Schmidt took it really hard when “Lance got busted. He just stared at that yellow bracelet and cried.”Spaceballs - Jess shared Spaceballs quotes, which Nick was impressed with. Here's a clip of the “jammed” radar scene.Additional Pop Culture References such as:Dexter - When Schmidt was coordinating with Elizabeth what they were doing that night, she said “Dexter and pie.” Dexter is an American crime drama television series that aired from 2006 to 2013 and focused on Dexter Morgan, a forensic technician specializing in bloodstain pattern analysis, but was also a vigilante serial killer, hunting down murderers who have not been adequately punished by the justice system. Dexter returned in 2021 with a 10-episode limited series titled Dexter: New Blood."Weird Al" Yankovic - When Jess and Nick were in bed together, Jess shared her elbow cracks because she “[pumped her] fist too hard at a Weird Al show.” Alfred Matthew "Weird Al" Yankovic is an American singer, musician, record producer, and actor who is known for humorous songs that make light of pop culture and often parodies specific songs by contemporary musical acts. He also performs original songs, most of which feature his trademark accordion.Toni Morisson - When Winston called the restaurant Picca, he pretended to be Toni Morrison to get a reservation. Chloe Anthony Wofford Morrison, known as Toni Morrison, was an American novelist. Morrison was the first black female editor in fiction at Random House and later developed her own reputation as an author. Morrison's works are praised for addressing the harsh consequences of racism in the United States and she has won many prestigious awards for her writing.What to Expect When You're Expecting - When Schmidt is threatening to break Nick and Jess up, he says it might happen as they watch the movie What to Expect When You're Expecting, which is a 2012 American rom-com movie based on Heidi Murkoff's 1984 pregnancy guide of the same name. The movie follows the lives of five couples as their lives are turned upside down by the difficulties and surprises of parenthood.Craig Kilborn / Daily Show - When Jess and Nick were reviewing things that might break them up, Nick shared that he prefers the “Kilborn Daily Show”. Craig Lawrence Kilborn is an American comedian, sports and political commentator, actor, and television host. Beginning his career in sports broadcasting with an anchoring position at ESPN's SportsCenter (1993 - 1996), he was later the first host of The Daily Show, which he hosted from 1996 to 1998. After that, he succeeded Tom Snyder on CBS' The Late Late Show from 1999 to 2004.This episode we discuss who would be more likely to go early and claim a table for friends, barter badly for a reservation, smush a pie in someone's face, and dance during a tense conversation. We also cover the honorary “Schmidtism” of Schmidt thinking Nick cracked his email password and when he was flustered about going on a double date with Cece, Jess, and Nick. For “Not in the 2020s” we talk about everything Schmidt did in this episode and for our “Yes in the 2020s” we discuss Cece calling Elizabeth. We also give a brief look into Alice Wetterlund (Hostess), our guest star of the episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Merritt Wever (Elizabeth - Previously discussed in S2E22), Barney Cheng (Valet), Tyler Langdon (Tourist), Cheyenne Nugent (Angry Girl #1), Andrew Pish (Restaurant Boyfriend), and Whitney Shumaker (Bar Patron).We did a deep dive into the different cars that Nick has driven so far and shared an article of how someone felt Winston's scenes were shot separately (the article does contain spoilers). In addition, we also talk about this article that compared Schmidt's evil-ness to Walter White from Breaking Bad. Neither of us found the bear in this episode.While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Moon Landing - When Nick and Jess are sharing what might break them up with each other, Nick states that the moon landing was obviously fake. The United States of America was the first country to have a crewed mission to land on the Moon, on July 20, 1969. There are many conspiracy theories that this was faked and that the 12 Apollo astronauts did not actually walk on the moon but rather that the evidence was faked to mislead the public.This episode got a 6.5/10 rating from both Kritika and Kelly and both had the same favorite character: Nick!Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 4!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/
This podcast covers New Girl Season 3, Episode 1, All In, which originally aired on September 17, 2013 and was written by Elizabeth Meriwether and directed by Max Winkler. Here's a quick recap of the episode:Nick and Jess share they're ready to go “All In” and end up running off to Mexico. Winston and Schmidt continue to feel out their friendship. Schmidt still can't decide between Cece and Elizabeth and we learn Winston is colorblind! We discuss Pop Culture References such as:Point Break - When Nick is running away from the resort security, he exclaims “I will Point Break style this moment!” Ugly Betty - When Nick was in resort jail he shared it wasn't so bad and that he was allowed to watch the television show, Ugly Betty. Additional Pop Culture References such as:Craigslist - Jess reminisced that she got “a really great deal on Craigslist” when she found the listing for Apartment 4D. Craigslist is an American classified advertisements website with sections devoted to jobs, housing, for sale, items wanted, services, community service, gigs, résumés, and discussion forums. Craig Newmark began the service in 1995 as an email distribution list to friends and it has since expanded to over 70 countries.Kermit the Frog - Winston didn't know that Kermit the Frog was green. Kermit the Frog is a Muppet character created and originally performed by Jim Henson. Introduced in 1955, Kermit can be found in numerous Muppet productions, most notably Sesame Street and The Muppet Show, as well as in other television series, feature films, specials, and public service announcements through the years. This season we started a new section of our podcast called “Most Likely To” where we pick moments from the episode and answer which one of us we think best fits that prompt. Listen today to hear who we think is most likely to be really bad at puzzles, wear a sweatshirt on their legs, run away to Mexico, and think things will work out unrealistically! We also cover two “Schmidtisms” when Schmidt was talking to Cece on the couch and when Schmidt got frustrated that Winston didn't know what the puzzle was going to look like. For “Not in the 2020s” we discuss how Jess & Nick were the stereotypical tourists in Mexico and Schmidt blamed Cece and Elizabeth for “putting him in this position.” Our “Yes in the 2020s” centered around Winston agreeing to help Schmidt by making himself look bad to Cece. We also explore the careers of Hemky Madera (Gabriel) and Cole Sand (Little Kid), the guest stars of this episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Merritt Wever (Elizabeth - Previously discussed in S2E22), Dominic Flores (Front Desk Clerk), Grayson Francis (Brad), Ray Reynaga (Julio), Roberto Montesinos (Manny), Drew Butler (Border Guard), and Matt Dione (Resort Patron).On this podcast we also refer to a few interviews from Jake Johnson, Zooey Deschanel, and Elizabeth Meriwether where they talked about this episode and more of Season 3. We also began to track the bears that are in each episode of New Girl! For this premiere, we couldn't find the bear ourselves but let us know where you see the bear in this episode!While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Piñata - When Nick wakes up, he realizes that Jess has driven to Mexico and sees a piñata that is shaped like a monkey. A piñata is a decorated papier-mache container filled with candy that is broken as part of a celebration. They're commonly associated with Mexico but actually came from the Italian word pignatta.Jollies - Winston tries to help Schmidt cover up his lie and allows Schmidt to tell Cece that Winston “got his jollies off” with Elizabeth. This is a slang term that means one's amusement, enjoyment, or pleasure but is usually referred to in terms of perverse satisfaction or a sexual thrill/charge.This episode got an 8/10 rating from Kritika and 7.5/10 from Kelly and we both had the same favorite character: Winston!Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 2!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/
The popularity of true-crime TV shows has risen in recent years, coinciding with the surge in OTT and streaming platforms across the globe. More often than not true-crime series are well received and are widely popular. However, a few go unnoticed despite being critically acclaimed, and one such series is the Netflix Original TV show, Unbelievable. That's the OTTplay Lost and Found for today.The series stars Kaitlyn Dever as Marie Adler, a young woman charged with lying about being raped. She soon finds herself ostracized by her friends and society after the systems in place designed to protect her become her worst nightmare. The narrative emphasizes how the authorities were callous and incentive in how they dealt with her allegations. It isn't until the investigation is taken over by Toni Collette's Det. Grace Rasmussen and Merritt Wever's Det. Karen Duvall that Marie Adler feels hopeful that her reputation could be restored. The well-paced narrative and absorbing screenplay ensured that Unbelievable was one of the best-reviewed shows of 2019. Kaitlyn Dever's performance was singled out from immense praise by the critics. The series is a commentary on how victims of sexual abuse are treated by society. It is inspired by a Pulitzer Prize-winning article by T. Christian Miller and Ken Armstrong titled An Unbelievable Story of Rape".

This podcast covers New Girl Season 2, Episode 24, Winston's Birthday, which originally aired on May 7, 2013 and directed by Max Winkler and was written by Brett Baer & Dave Finkel.Here's a quick recap of the episode:Jess and Nick sleep together for the first time in the last episode! Before they get a chance to talk about it, they're split apart as they prepare for Cece's wedding the next day, Bob arrives, and a new job opportunity pops up for Jess. Meanwhile, Schmidt and Elizabeth work to define their relationship and it's Winston's BIRTHDAY?!We discuss Pop Culture References such as:When talking to Jess, Cece exclaimed her Uncle Shishir “had one scene with Salman Khan in Dabangg 2, and all of the sudden he thinks he's Amitabh Bachchan in Jhoom Barab-ar Jhoom.” Salman Khan Dabangg 2Amitabh BachchanJhoom Barab-ar JhoomHenna - In preparation for her wedding, Cece got her hands painted with henna. Additional Pop Culture References such as:“It Wasn't Me” - Shaggy - In the Schmidt and Elizabeth's flashback scene, this song played.

The lyrics of the song depict one man (Rikrok) asking his friend (Shaggy) what to do after his girlfriend caught him cheating on her with "the girl next door".

Michael Gerard Tyson is a former American professional boxer who competed from 1985 to 2005.

This podcast covers New Girl Season 2, Episode 23, Virgins, which originally aired on April 30, 2013 and was written by Elizabeth Meriwether and directed by Alec Berg. Here's a quick recap of the episode:After Jess gets a text from Teddy, the guy who took her “flower”, the whole loft (plus Cece) share their stories about how they lost their virginity. We discuss Pop Culture References such as:David Foster Wallace - When Jess was slowly telling her story, Schmidt asked her to get to the point and called her David Foster Wallace. The Rolling Stones vs The Beatles - Cece lost her virginity to Mick Jagger, the front man for The Rolling Stones. Schmidt, however, called out “Beatlemania”. Additional Pop Culture References such as:Dave Matthews / “Daver” - In Schmidt's flashback, Nick was going to a Dave Matthews concert and called himself a “Daver”. Dave Matthews Band is an American rock band, formed in 1991 in Charlottesville, Virginia. As of 2018, the band had sold more than 20 million concert tickets and a combined total of 38 million CDs and DVDs. Dave Matthews Band is known for their concerts where they play songs differently each performance and that is a staple of their live shows since the 1990s.“Stay (I Missed You)” - Lisa Loeb - All throughout Jess's story, this song played over the scenes. "Stay (I Missed You)" is a song by American singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb that was released in May 1994 as the lead single from the original movie soundtrack to Reality Bites. Lyrically, the song deals with a relationship that has recently ended, but the narrator is now regretful.Titanic - During Nick's Dad's business trip, Winston and Nick were watching Titanic on TV. Titanic is a 1997 American epic romance and disaster film directed, written, produced, and co-edited by James Cameron. The film incorporates both historical and fictional aspects of the RMS Titanic and stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. Annie - In the flashback, Nick's dad mentioned needing alcoholic drinks to get through Annie, which is a Broadway musical based upon the popular Harold Gray comic strip Little Orphan Annie and loosely based on the 1885 poem Little Orphant Annie written by James Whitcomb Riley. The original Broadway production opened in 1977 and ran for almost six years.“Anything Could Happen” - Ellie Goulding - When Jess and Nick get together, the song “Anything Could Happen” by Ellie Goulding is playing. "Anything Could Happen" is a song on English singer/songwriter Ellie Goulding's second album, Halcyon. "Anything Could Happen" peaked at number five on the UK Singles Chart. We also cover the flashback scene of Schmidt and Nick talking about sex in college as our “Schmidtism”. For “Not in the 2020s” we discuss Nick's father getting a prostitute for his son and Jess asking her date to “be a man” again. For “Yes in the 2020s” we celebrate the consent and gender equality talked about on the episode as well as Schmidt and Nick's talk about intercourse. We also give a brief look into Brenda Song (Daisy) and Johnny Pemberton (Jess's prom date), the Guest Stars we feature on this episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Dennis Farina (Walt - Previously discussed in S2E13), Merritt Wever (Elizabeth - Previously discussed in S2E22), Satya Bhabha (Shivrang - Previously discussed in S2E18), Lauren Weedman (Mysteria), Carla Renata (Octopussy), Christopher Wallinger (Teddy), Dylan O'Brien (The Guy), Trixx Ian Vitolo (Murder Victim), Joseph Culp (Mick Jagger Voice), and Nick Adams (Bartender).We also share this article (which contains spoilers) where we learned that while they were hoping for an easy episode, this was the hardest episode due to the costume changes and everyone being in each other's flashbacks. We also talk about how this was Dennis Farina's last role before his death.While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Tuxedo vs. Suit - When Nick says he's worn a tuxedo before, Schmidt explains to him that a tuxedo is different from a suit. The main difference is that tuxedos have satin details, are only worn with white shirts that have a wing or turndown collar, and typically are accessorized with a cummerbund, waistcoat, suspenders, and a self-tied bow tie.Iraqi War - Schmidt says it was during the Iraqi War that he learned that men could be on top during sex. The Iraqi War was a United states led invasion of Iraq to overthrow Saddam Hussein and lasted 8 years from 2003 to 2011.Took My Flower – Jess brings about the plot of this episode by talking about Teddy, the man who “took her flower”. This is a euphemism to indicate taking someone's virginity.This episode got an 8.5/10 rating from Kritika whose favorite character was Nick and Kelly rated this episode a 9/10 and her favorite character was Schmidt!Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 24!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/
This podcast covers New Girl Season 2, Episode 22, Bachelorette Party, which originally aired on April 9, 2013 and was directed by Matt Sohn and written by Kay Cannon and Sophia Lear.Here's a quick recap of the episode:After the loft receives their wedding invites and finds out that Cece's wedding is in 3 weeks, Jess plans Cece her “perfect” bachelorette party. Meanwhile, Schmidt goes looking for a girlfriend to bring a plus one to Cece's wedding.We discuss Pop Culture References such as:Bachelor / Bachelorette Parties - In this episode, Jess throws Cece a Bachelorette Party. Additional Pop Culture References such as:Gérard Depardieu - When Schmidt busts into Cece's apartment, rather than answer who he is to Cece's Auntie, he says he's Gérard Depardieu. Gérard Xavier Marcel Depardieu is a French actor known for performances in The Last Metro, Police, Jean de Florette, and Cyrano de Bergerac. He was granted citizenship of Russia in January 2013 and became a cultural ambassador of Montenegro in the same month.Alyssa Milano - When trying to convince Cece he could get a partner by the time of her wedding, he mentioned he “once figured out Alyssa Milano's phone number just by randomly choosing numbers.” Alyssa Jayne Milano is an American actress, producer, singer, author, and activist. As an actor, she's known for her roles in Who's the Boss?, Melrose Place, Charmed, and My Name Is Earl. As a political activist, she's known for her role in the Me Too movement.Jane Lynch - It was joked that Nick looked like Jane Lynch while wearing his dad's yellow track suit. Jane Marie Lynch is an American actress, comedian, and author. She is known for starring as Sue Sylvester (who wore a lot of tracksuits) in the Fox musical comedy series Glee, which earned her a Primetime Emmy Award. In 2013, Lynch received the 2,505th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the television category. [Robin] Williams - Shivrang is “baffled” why the US “refuses to embrace Robbie Williams”. Robin McLaurin Williams was an American actor and comedian. Known for his improvisational skills and the wide variety of characters he created, he is regarded as one of the best comedians of all time. “Candy Shop” - 50 Cent - Alfredo, the stripper, played this song when he was trying to do his strip dance. "Candy Shop" is the second single by rapper 50 Cent from his second commercial album, The Massacre. "Candy Shop" peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming 50 Cent's third number one single and fifth top-ten single. The song was nominated for Best Rap Song at the 2006 Grammy Awards and the music video was nominated for Best Male Video at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards.We also cover Schmidt explaining why he goes to Booty Burn Bootcamp as our “Schmidtism” this episode. For our “Not in the 2020s” we discuss Schmidt and Elizabeth's relationship, how Nick and Winston tried to get a picture of Shivrang's penis, Schmidt demanding a +1, and Schmidt thinking women are supposed to want commitment. For our “Yes in the 2020s” we highlight Schmidt apologizing to Cece. We also give a brief look into Merritt Wever (Elizabeth), the Guest Star we feature in this episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Satya Bhabha (Shivrang - Previously discussed in S2E18), June Diane Raphael (Sadie - Previously discussed in S1E15), Rebecca Ballantine Reid (Nadia - Previously discussed in S1E22), Lauren Dair Owens (Young Jess - Previously discussed in S2E5), Sudha Desai (Grandmother), Frank Cappello (Male Stripper), Britni Stanwood (Model - Previously Appeared in S2E5), Margarita Kallas (Model #2), Eugenia Kuzmina (Svetlana), Talia Toms (Hot Girl #1), Katie Walder (Cheryl - Previously Appeared in S1E8), Cynthia Murell (Hot Girl #3), Jaidan Jiron (Young Cece), and Roma Chugani (Ankita).In this podcast, we call out a few camera goofs like how you see Jess say “Not Now Alfredo” but don't actually hear her speak (around 13:20) and how when Schmidt knocks on Elizabeth's door, it was never closed (around 15:50). We also share this article (which contains spoilers) where we learned that Elizabeth serves as a foil for Cece because Elizabeth tries to make Schmidt a better guy. Elizabeth Meriwether also mentions the inspiration for the idea of the “dead dad pass.”While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Shandy - When Shivrang is hanging out at the bar with Nick and Winston, he asks them if they want a shandy. A shandy is a beer mixed with either a lemon or lemon-lime flavored beverage that is popular in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and Canada.This episode got a 7/10 Rating from Kritika whose favorite character was Shivrang and Kelly rated this episode a 7.5/10 and her favorite character was Jess!Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 23!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/

Le succès du Jeu de la Dame ("The Queen's Gambit") sur Netflix n’est plus à démontrer : il s’agit de la minisérie la plus populaire sur la plateforme, tout simplement ! Et sachant qu’une saison 2 n’est pas à l’ordre du jour, vous êtes en droit de vous demander : que regardez ensuite ? BetaSeries vous propose donc 4 séries qui pourront vous plaire, aussi bien par leurs thématiques que leur style visuel ! Godless On commence par une série que nous vous avons déjà conseillée dans une précédente Reco du week-end, mais ici l’occasion est trop belle pour ne pas vous en reparler. Godless est l’autre série Netflix du créateur du Jeu de la Dame, Scott Frank. Un western somptueux aux personnages féminins forts incarnés par Michelle Dockery de Downtown Abbey, mais aussi Merritt Wever qui a elle aussi remporté un Emmy Award pour le rôle. 7 épisodes à voir sur Netflix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrlZCRncCwA La fabuleuse Mme Maisel Si le monde du stand-up n’a pas forcément grand chose à voir avec celui des échecs, les aventures de La Fabuleuse Mme Maisel devraient quand même piquer votre attention.

Rachel Brosnahan a gagné 2 Golden Globes et un Emmy Award pour sa performance dans cette série très vite addictive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOmwkTrW4OQ Mrs. America Dans Mrs. America, un groupe de femmes se démène pour se faire une place et surtout se faire entendre dans une sphère politique dominée par les hommes dans les années 70.

Le western est un genre associé à l’âge d’or d’Hollywood et pourtant, la télévision nous a offert quelques histoires marquantes du Far West depuis une vingtaine d’années. Alors enfilez vos bottines et en selle vers une contrée poussiéreuse, mais pas si lointaine, voici trois séries pour partir à la conquête de l’ouest. Deadwood (OCS) On commence par une évidence : Deadwood a marqué les esprits entre 2004 et 2006 sur HBO avec cette histoire de ruée vers l’or à la fin des années 1870 dans le Dakota du Sud. Ian McShane incarne le désormais emblématique tenancier de bar Al Swearengen dans la petite ville de Deadwood ébranlée par de nombreuses luttes de pouvoir. Les 3 saisons de la série sont disponibles sur OCS et un film est même sorti l’été dernier pour conclure la saga. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nW4Dc-WqvJk Godless (Netflix) Plus récemment sur Netflix, c’est Godless qui a ravivé la flamme du western sur la plateforme. Écrite et réalisée par Scott Frank, scénariste du film Logan, la série raconte l’histoire d’un hors-la-loi, Frank Griffin, qui sème la terreur dans l’Ouest américain à la recherche d’un ancien membre de son gang. Brillamment interprétée par Jeff Daniels, qui a remporté un Emmy Award pour le rôle, Griffin se retrouve face à une ville peuplée majoritairement de femmes. On a donc le plaisir de retrouver Michelle Dockery de Downtown Abbey, mais aussi Merritt Wever qui a elle aussi remporté un Emmy Award pour le rôle. Ce sont donc 7 épisodes haletants et superbement réalisés qui vous attendent sur Netflix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrlZCRncCwA Justified (Amazon Prime) Enfin, on termine avec un néo-western : Justified. On parle de néo-western quand une œuvre reprend les codes du genre dans l’Amérique de notre époque. C’est exactement le cas de Justified qui voit Timothy Oliphant reprendre le chapeau en tant que Marshall aux méthodes peu orthodoxes et dans une petite ville du Kentucky dont il est originaire. 6 saisons de 13 épisodes à dévorer sur Amazon Prime Video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihxiFseaa30

And even though ‘Run,’ starring Merritt Wever and Domhnall Gleeson, has all the makings of a good show, there’s something slightly off about it (36:00). Hosts: Chris Ryan and Andy Greenwald
Episode Notes We are going on a spoiler frenzy this week as we discuss 2004's Secret Window starring Johnny Depp and Maria Bello. There's a twist – so watch before you listen – or just dive in if you don't care, we spoil things on the reg. Lemuel watches primarily for Maria Bello, though both of us are pretty thirsty this week. We talk bad accents, surprise death and why corn is a terrible medium for wrath.

In this era of quarantine it's time for some levity. Kevin Jacobsen and Amanda Spears return for this podcast, covering the Comedy categories and it's a bit of a Schitt fest. With so many contenders not in the race this year, like Veep, Barry and Russian Doll, everything is much more open than usual. Plus, how will the extended Emmy voting period and inability to host FYC events impact this year's awards? We cover Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Lead Actor, Lead Actress and Comedy Series where, in many races, looks like Schitt's Creek vs The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel in nearly all but Lead Actor. Dan Levy vs Tony Shalhoub, Alex Borstein vs Annie Murphy and Catherine O'Hara vs Rachel Brosnahan. But what about Merritt Wever in Run? Is the final season of Modern Family rearing its ugly head? We close with an interesting conversation on the theory of 'vote-splitting,' which I generally don't believe is a real thing, or at least used correctly as a descriptor. But between Kevin, Amanda and myself - and using last year's Drama Directing race as an example - I think we land on a mutual understanding. This podcast runs 1h 29 with music.

Susannah Grant is the Oscar-nominated writer of “Erin Brockovich,” “Ever After,” "28 Days” and “In Her Shoes.” Her latest work is Netflix’s limited series “Unbelievable,” a docudrama adapted from reporting published by ProPublica and The Marshall Project that tells the story of two police detectives from different precincts who cracked the case of a serial rapist who carried out his vicious crimes in Colorado and Washington state between 2008 and 2011.Grant developed the project into an eight-episode depiction of both bungled and bravura police work. It’s also an essential analysis of the cold, systemic realities that victims of sexual assault often face when they make the courageous decision to report the crimes against them. In this episode of “The Call Sheet,” Grant talks about her efforts to avoid one-dimensional portraits of shoddy detective work, developing the look of the series as showrunner and collaborating with series stars Kaitlyn Dever, Toni Collette and Merritt Wever.

This week Megan blows Evan’s mind when she reveals some shocking new information to him about corn. Yes, corn. She and Dave kick off the show by reviewing the utterly disappointing MEMORY: THE ORIGINS OF ALIEN (3:35), a behind-the-scenes documentary that repeats all the same old stories about Ridley Scott’s beloved 1979 film. Then Evan and Dave cover Martin Scorsese’s often-overlooked gem THE KING OF COMEDY (14:38), detailing why JOKER is such an unsuccessful attempt to mimic it. Next Dave and Megan review LUCY IN THE SKY (23:42), a movie so frustrating they wish they didn’t have to talk about it. The one positive thing they can agree on though, is that Natalie Portman goes for broke with her performance. Lastly, all three of them delve into the Netflix mini-series UNBELIEVABLE (35:27), discussing why its first episode is so infuriating, while expounding upon why it’s such an important examination of trauma and a satisfying police procedural with tremendous performances by its leads Kaitlyn Dever, Merritt Wever, and Toni Collette.

The Netflix series Unbelievable brings together a group of actresses including Kaitlyn Dever, Toni Collette, Merritt Wever, Dale Dickey and Danielle MacDonald. It's based on a true story about a young woman named Marie who was sexually assaulted and pressured by the police into recanting her story. Based on reporting from ProPublica and the Marshall Project, the series follows Marie, but also the two detectives who, much later, gave her case a chance to be solved.
This week we discuss Unbelievable, a Netflix show starring Kaitlyn Dever, Toni Collette, and Merritt Wever. The show depicts the true story of Marie, a teenager who was charged with lying about having been raped, and the two female detectives who followed a twisting path to arrive at the truth. We unpack why it's important to believe survivors, how messed up the police system is, and how survivors approach healing.

On this episode of Kickin' & Streamin' Podcast, Graham & Jocelyn discuss Netflix original miniseries "Unbelievable," based on an article entitled: "An Unbelievable Story of Rape" published on Pro Publica in collaboration with The Marshall Project. Jocelyn gives a "no spoiler" background of the story, specifically about the character named Marie Adler. Graham & Jocelyn discuss at length the series of miscarriage of justice Marie is subjected to by a string of male detectives and the people she considered to be her family who refused to believe she was raped. The two co-host present the contrasting reality of the other case in the story about Amber, a college student in Colorado who like Marie, was rape in in the same conditions and circumstances, yet her case was believed and investigated by two female detectives who cracked the case and ended up serving justice to Marie. Graham & Jocelyn then moved on to discuss the cast beginning with Kaitlyn Dever, the young actress who played Marie Adler. They marveled at Kaitlyn's histrionics and ability to portray the pain and anguish of Marie Adler in her most vulnerable moments. They also discuss the starring role and acting pedigree of Australian actress Toni Colette (United States of Tara), along with American actress Merritt Wever (Zoey Barkow - Nurse Jackie), in her role of Detective Karen Duvall. During the discussion, Jocelyn shared a personal story of how she felt when a medical doctor dismissed her severe bout of depression as "It's called PMS, honey" and how this relates to law enforcement officers, medical personnel, and other authority figures' reluctance to believe children and women.

Dan and Josh discuss the new Netflix miniseries Unbelievable. This detective drama is must see and delivers three powerhouse performances! Then they discuss movie festival season as the awards race starts to take shape.
The original series "Unbelievable" follows two policewomen (Toni Collette and Merritt Wever) trying to capture a serial rapist, and one girl (Kaitlyn Dever) who may, or may not, be a victim. It just depends on who you believe. For this episode, we have Kate Wells and Lindsey Smith (hosts of the podcast Believed) speaking with writer/director Susannah Grant and Executive Producer Sarah Templeton about how they adapted the true story into a series, and what steps can be taken to take these crimes more seriously (See "An Epidemic of Disbelief" in The Atlantic).
** Contém Spoilers ** Unbelievable é uma mini-série da Netflix. Estreou no passado dia 13 de Setembro e por aqui já houve quem tivesse visto tudo. Aqui referimo-nos apenas ao primeiro episódio que apresenta as personagens, ainda que não nos mostre as interpretadas por Toni Collette ou Merritt Wever .

The White House is a mess (again). It's Wednesday and Toni Collette & Merritt Wever are here!
This week on Pop Culture Confidential: writer/creator Susannah Grant, producer Sarah Timberman and actor Kaitlyn Dever about their gripping, true crime, drama ‘Unbelievable’. The Netflix limited series is based on an explosive article from 2016 (ProPublica/The Marshall Project) called “An Unbelievable Story of Rape” that went on to win the Pulitzer Prize. We spoke to Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich) and Sarah Timberman (Justified) about making this gripping and important show, what they learned about rape victims and trauma as well as about sexual assault investigations, making this post- #metoo, believing women and more. We also spoke with actor Kaitlyn Dever, who we last saw in another stellar performance in Olivia Wildes ‘Booksmart’, about playing this difficult role and why it was important for her to be a part of it. Kaitlyn Dever turns in an incredible performance as Marie, an 18-year-old from Washington state, raised in the foster care system who claimed that she was raped by an intruder in the middle of the night. When police detectives, her trusted foster moms and friends begin to doubt her story, she begins to doubt herself. She is shaken and traumatized as she has to recount her story again and again. Later two female detectives in another state (Toni Collette and Merritt Wever) are following leads of what seems to be a serial rapist on the loose and connections to Maries case are made.
The summer of Manson is upon us. Ahead of the 50th anniversary of the mass murder masterminded by Charles Manson, a wave of content is coming our way.The grisly slayings of eight people — including the very pregnant Sharon Tate — cast a long shadow over the romantic adventure of the 60s counterculture, fascinating and haunting us to this day.Out now in theaters is CHARLIE SAYS, the second of a trio of Manson family films this year. Rather than focus on the violence, CHARLIE SAYS is a sensitive, psychological portrait of three of Charlie's girls -- as they descend into the madness of Manson's world, and with the help of a grad student, go through a deprogramming process in prison. LA Times film writer Mark Olsen ( @IndieFocus) talks with the movie's director Mary Harron and writer @turnerguinevere, the filmmakers behind AMERICAN PSYCHO. Harron and Turner discuss their efforts to capture the domestic abuse and manipulation within the Manson family, along with the sexism of their freewheeling commune life.But first, Olsen chats with critic and self-described Manson head @katiewalshstx , who calls CHARLIE SAYS a deeply feminist film that captures the toxic masculinity and sexual manipulation practiced by Charles Manson.
It has been called one of the biggest bombs of 2018 and one of the worst efforts of Robert Zemeckis' career, but is WELCOME TO MARWEN really that much of a train wreck? Join us as we take a deep dive into the film starring Steve Carrell, Leslie Mann, Merritt Wever and more on an all new episode of Pop and Schlock LIVE!
L’imaginaire pour soigner les traumatismes de la vraie vie. Steve Carell joue un homme brisé qui se reconstruit grâce au village de poupée qu’il a recrée. Il y met en scène son combat contre ses peurs dans un décors fantasmé de seconde guerre mondiale. Une audace technique et artistique signée Robert Zemeckis. Bienvenue à Marwen (Welcome to Marwen) (2018) de Robert Zemeckis avec Steve Carell, Leslie Mann, Diane Kruger, Eliza Gonzalez, Gwendoline Christie, Merritt Wever, Janelle Monae… Émission animée par Thomas Bondon et Thierry de Pinsun et Héra Laskri.

Welcome to Marwen is recommended viewing by the Lodgemaster. The film was a box office bomb with projected losses for the studio at $60 million. That being said, there is no film quite like Welcome to Marwen. Robert Zemeckis takes his motion capture obsession to the next level capturing foot fetishes and doll fetishes and torture and all sorts of weird stuff. Zemeckis twists the documentary Marwencol into a PTSD nightmare that will haunt you for a long time. Steve Carell, Leslie Mann, Diane Kruger, Merritt Wever, Janelle Monáe, Eiza González, Gwendoline Christie, Leslie Zemeckis, Siobhan Williams and Neil Jackson star in it. I hope Marwencol creator Mark Hogancamp never has to watch this!

Welcome back to Pilot Inspectors. In today's episode, we are talking about the Emmy award winning Showtime series Nurse Jackie. Download today's episode to find out what we thought of this dark, medical comedy starring Edie Falco and Merritt Wever.
Talking Through Twice as Far We may have come Twice as Far with this episode, but we’re only half ready for what happened. Two beloved characters gone, one for good, and yes, we definitely need therapy after this next episode of The Walking Dead. What Not to Do if you star in a Zombie show… Just make sure if you ever appear on a zombie apocalypse show that you never experience any character growth. And don’t become the moral compass. Don’t make plans for the future. Do any of those and you’ll probably get killed off. How many more encounters with the Saviors will our gang have before it destroys them? Or before it destroys their spirits? Dr. Denise may have been awkward, but she was the best kind of awkward. Merritt Wever did such an amazing job of bringing this character to life that we barely got enough time to get to know and make us love her. Merritt and Denise, I’ll miss you terribly. A few more thoughts About the cold open, they are trying something new from what they have done before, and I like it. They aren’t stuck in a rut and that they aren’t afraid to try new things. Some of those things will land for some of the audience; some will fall flat. At least, they aren’t going to just “play it safe” and ride this success wave as far as they can. What I liked about the cold open is that they were able to convey information without exposition, which is always nice, and that they made us pay attention. I also liked how the cold open-ended with Carol and the rosary, and the episode ended with Morgan noticing Carol was missing. Not quite a bookend, but again, they are keeping it interesting. There’s no I in Team… When Daryl did not want to take the train tracks, it occurred to me that he is not always the most diplomatic person. In other words, whereas other people might take the time to say why or why not, Daryl just does what he wants sometimes without explanation. I bet if he had taken the time to tell Rosita and Denise why he didn’t want to take the tracks, they probably would have indulged him. But the way it went down, as Brian said, they weren’t really acting like much of a team (which should have clued me in that Denise was doomed!), and sometimes to be better teammates, we need to be vulnerable and expose our soft gooey center. Begging the question? I am going to tackle one of my biggest pet peeves this episode, the term “begging the question”. I had it right. It describes a fallacy in logic and philosophy. You may know it as circular logic. The technique is used most often during formal debates and is derived from the Latin phrase petitio principii, which if you believe Wikipedia actually means “assuming the initial point.” If you want to learn more about how it has been subverted for popular usage because probably one time someone somewhere used it wrong and other people thought that person was smart and so more and more people wanted to be smart, too…well, you can do your own google research on that. But, here are a few websites about begging the question that I like that explain it a little bit more: BTQ, Grammar Girl and NY Times.

After a somewhat slower start for some fans, this second episode kicked season 6 into high gear with some non-stop action, and all in the time it takes to bake a casserole! Walkers are not the main danger in JSS,
Talking Through JSS After a somewhat slower start for some fans, this second episode kicked season 6 into high gear with some non-stop action, and all in the time it takes to bake a casserole! Walkers are not the main danger in JSS, that honor goes to perhaps the craziest group of people on the show yet. The Wolves don't seem to be killing to conquer or killing for food, but rather just for the fun of it. How long will Morgan survive in this world where the motto kill or be killed is the way of life, and what put him on his path of non-lethal violence? Ninja Carol! Once again, Carol was the rock star of this episode. She activated her beast mode (thanks Kyle for coining that phrase!) and nearly single-handedly eliminated the threat. How will everyone else in Alexandria react when they realize that she had been putting on an act before the attack? And is the unflappable fan favorite finally succumbing to the burden of her chosen path? I think Morgan is right, Carol doesn't like killing, even though she does it without hesitation. Perhaps she is no longer able to lie to herself about it, which is why we see the tears at the end. Morgan What will become of Morgan? Is he leaving Alexandria for good, or just going to help with the zombie parade? And perhaps the most heartbreaking question of all…will Morgan survive season 6? There is at least one podcast host that sincerely hopes he does. I forgot my theory… Finally, speaking of that one podcast host, due to some technical difficulties, I completely forgot to talk about my theory/prediction during the episode, even after I made all that fuss about it. So, I will just explain it, briefly, here. I think that Jessie will become a little “mini-me” for Carol and that she will study at the feet of the master the art of becoming a badass. I think their similar backgrounds helped, in a way, to prepare them for living in the zombie apocalypse, and the death of the abusive spouse is what triggers the emergence of the inner badass. Now that Jessie is free to be who she was always supposed to be, she and Carol will become the biggest, baddest BAMFs in the new world, and will roam the earth killing what needs to be killed… yeah. What do you think? Tell us what you think about the season so far? What about my crazy theory? We ask because we absolutely crave your feedback! We feel so lucky to have so many people interact with us, we can't tell you how much it means to know that you are out there listening. For the next episode, The Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 3, titled Thank You, please submit your feedback by 6 PM Eastern/5 PM Central on Tuesday, October 27, 2015. A great way to send in your feedback is via our Facebook group. Ratings are down, but that’s not unexpected JSS got a 6.20 in the 18-49 demographic, with 12.183 million viewers. That’s down from the season premiere’s 7.43 and 14.633 million viewers. That’s not unexpected, though, as the premiere always gets a high rating.
