It's Festive Friday and we've got a wild holiday rom-com to discuss today! ABOUT THE CHRISTMAS DECOY A socially awkward man is bribed by his narcissistic best friend to run interference with a woman who won't leave him alone during the holidays. The Christmas Decoy is a rom-com full of mischief, mismatched intentions, and holiday heart. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE CHRISTMAS DECOY August 24, 2025 | Streaming/Rental CAST & CREW OF THE CHRISTMAS DECOY Stephen Fisher as Jeff Wilkins Marguerite Haines as Sophia Wilkins Hope Harvard as Mia Barrett John Allen as Allen Bontrager BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We meet Jeff as he jumps out of bed and starts singing Joy to the World. I guess he like owns a hotel and also lives there. He gets a call from someone named Jordan who tells him that she's not coming to help at the hotel this holiday season. Instead, she's sending a girl named Mia...someone who has a massive crush on Jeff since they were kids. The problem is Jeff can't stand Mia. So he's really mad about it so he drives to his buddy Allen's house. He has a request for him - will you work at my hotel for 2 weeks and work alongside her - run interference so I don't have to be around her? He pushes back because he doesn't want to take 2 weeks off of work but ultimately gives in. He starts to like her and they end up going on a date. One date leads to another date which leads to a kiss. Jeff starts getting jealous - he wants her to keep liking him even though he's not interested because he's a psycho. So he texts her to go to a movie and she says sure and then asks if Allen is coming. So he says yes. But at the movie, he tries to hold her hand. She's not interested. She holds Allen's hand instead. The next day, Allen tells Mia the truth about how he was only hired to run interference which makes her mad. He goes after her and tells her he loves her and they kiss. Jeff is forced to move on and says hi to the next girl who walks into the hotel. Who knows what'll happen next.

Johnny Mac recaps “My Romcom,” Scrubs Season 10 Episode 3 (aired March 4, 2026), noting ratings and renewal are unknown but expecting a pickup due to buzz. The episode centers on divorced JD and Elliot fighting over discharging a patient, with JD now in a Dr. Kelso-like role; a directing choice keeps them visually separated until they reconnect in a conversation about rebuilding their friendship.

JLB sits down with the director/writer/producer and lead actress of the zombie rom-com 'Didn't Die', Meera Menon and Kiran Deol. The film is discussed as well as the importance of Asian American representation. Meera also talks about losing her home in the Altadena fires just weeks before the Sundance Premiere. The backstories for these two are beautiful and so is the film. -- ABOUT "DIDN'T DIE" Didn't Die is a zombie rom-com (zom-com) directed by “The Walking Dead” director Meera Menon that is releasing to theaters March 6, 2026, via Level 33 Entertainment. Emmy-nominee Kiran Deol (Destroy All Neighbors) stars in the film, Heralded by Variety as an “enticing character-centric comedy” and by Collider as a film that “forges its own bloody patch by taking the story back to the barest of bones.” Didn't Die premiered in 2025 at the Sundance Film Festival as a Midnight Feature; merely weeks after director Menon's Altadena home was tragically consumed by the LA fires and revolves around an unfolding zombie apocalypse in rural America, as a podcast host (Deol) struggles to maintain her dwindling audience amidst the chaos. -- Follow Didn't Die on Instagram Follow Meera Menon on Instagram Follow Kiran Deol on Instagram   Follow That Was Pretty Scary on Instagram and TikTokFollow Jon Lee Brody on Instagram Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Oh it is good to be back for Season 2! This month’s theme is Bad (ra-ra, ah-ah-ah) Romance and today we’re kicking the year off with a discussion of serial killer Romance Fiction. The episode begins with a very reasonable conversation about the ethics of True Crime entertainment and then … well. But within the proceeding chaos — games, Harry’s “incontinence”, and Amy’s determination to be the easiest prey a murderer could ask for — are a few gems regarding K-Dramas, Dark Romance novels, serial killers as patriarchs, and humanity’s fixation with the macabre. This month we’re reading How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates by Shailee Thompson. If a slasher x Rom-Com mashup appeals to you, get yourself a copy and stay tuned for our interview with the author on March 19, followed by our live book club over on YouTube on March 26!

Con el estreno de People We Meet On Vacation volvió la conversación sobre el regreso de las romcoms y Barbi se tuvo que sentar a hablar al respecto.

Dans cet épisode, l'échange est intime, presque comme une discussion de fin de soirée. À l'occasion de la sortie en salle de LOL 2, une conversation avec Lisa Azuelos autour de ses films, et surtout de tout ce qu'ils racontent sur nos relations aujourd'hui. On analyse l'amour sous toutes ses formes : la passion, les relations stables, la peur de s'ennuyer, la peur de trop ressentir, les différences entre la vingtaine et la cinquantaine, et ce qui change - ou ne change pas - quand on aime. Entre confidences, rires et réflexions, certains personnages sont même comparés à SATC , parce que finalement, on cherche toutes la même chose : comprendre pourquoi on aime comme on aime. Un épisode doux, drôle et nostalgique, à écouter comme une rom-com un dimanche soir.XXAmal TahirHébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

In this emotional and unforgettable episode of Ravished, hosts Nik and Donna dive deep into The Women by Kristin Hannah, and let's just say… we were not prepared. From the very first pages, this sweeping story of courage, friendship, sacrifice, and resilience pulled us in completely. We laughed at the tender moments, cried through the heartbreak, and absolutely fell in love with the strength and complexity of these women.Nik and Donna unpack the emotional weight of the Vietnam era, the often-overlooked stories of women who served, and the powerful themes of love, identity, and belonging that Kristin Hannah captures so beautifully. We share our favorite scenes, the moments that wrecked us (yes, tissues were involved), and why this novel will stay with us long after the final page. If you're ready for a heartfelt conversation about a book that truly ravished us, this episode is for you.

Content Warnings for and 80's movie - Buying a human being, ableism, slut shaming, classism, bullying, drug addiction/accidental overdose.   Welcome back for the final episode in this months theme of Rom-Coms I Fell For! And I'm ending this month with a classic 80s movie from my childhood, Can't Buy Me Love. But this time I'll be watching, reacting and then reviewing the movie because it's been awhile since I've done that.  So join me as I revisit this childhood favorite with the beloved trope of Nerd Pays The Popular Girl So He Can Become Popular Only To Turn Into a Jerk While She Falls In Love With Him.  Thanks for listening and Keep Streaming!   Find, follow, support the pod → https://linktr.ee/mystreamingbubble     Don't forget about Twin It to Win It → https://linktr.ee/twinittowinitpod     

I went in expecting the worst—and somehow it still disappointed. The only thing this movie gets right is its final conflict, which avoids the usual rom-com misunderstanding and instead focuses on clashing goals and priorities. Unfortunately, that's the lone bright spot. Everything else falls flat. There's zero romantic chemistry, weak comedic timing, and performances that never rise above average. The script feels like a checklist of tired rom-com clichés, and the story ultimately exists just to sell a book rather than tell anything meaningful. No real character growth, no depth, and shockingly boring. Unless you're a hardcore fan of the actors or the book, skip this and watch literally any other rom-com. #RelationshipGoals #RomComFail #MovieReview #HonestReview #NoChemistry #BoringMovies #SkipThisOne #AmazonPrime #RomComProblems #FilmCritic #MovieTalk #NotRecommended #WatchSomethingElse #ClickbaitButTrue

It's Festive Friday with a brand new holiday movie!ABOUT UNEXPECTED CHRISTMASA family's perfect Christmas reunion is upended when old rivalries, secrets, and romantic mix-ups come to a head.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR UNEXPECTED CHRISTMASNovember 7, 2025 | StarzCAST & CREW OF UNEXPECTED CHRISTMASLil Rel Howery as RichardDomiNque Perry as MarissaReagan Gomez-Preston as KerryTerrence Terrell as MichaelTrell Woodberry as KyleCecelia Friday as AliciaBRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSISRichard and Marissa are hanging out in bed, they're having funnnnnn. They're dating and Marissa is like what are we? Richard is like we're having funnnnnn. That's not enough for Marissa. But after he goes to the restroom, his bag falls and a ring pops out! HE'S GOING TO PROPOSE! She's very happy now and now she wants him to come to family Christmas with her in Texas.We meet more of her family - there's brother Kyle. He's married to Alicia. Alicia and Kyle aren't doing great. Kyle is just always too tired for the fun times.And then there's Kerry who lives out in LA. She works in real estate, buying up buildings to build new business centers and what not. She finds out that the next purchase she needs to help push forward is actually her parents' church in Texas. She claims it won't be a problem. She gets a call from someone named "DO NOT ANSWER". Whoever is on the other line is shooting his shot and trying to get back with her which she agrees to.Richard comes over and breaks up with Marissa. She's heartbroken. But off to Texas she goes to be with her family.And Marissa is shocked when her sister shows up with her boyfriend....RICHARD!!! That's right.It's an absolute mess. So she called up her gay best friend to have him come and act like her boyfriend to make Richard mad.We find out that Marissa & Kerry are actually step sisters - Marissa's mom married Kerry's dad shortly after her dad passed away and Marissa has always been pretty mad about it.One night, Marissa and Richard are able to talk and he promises that when he was with her, he and Kerry were on a break.Richard is like next in line in his father's doctor practice thing and Kerry is always like you need to go ahead and make that official but Marissa is always like you do what you wanna do.Well, one night, everything blows up. It comes out that Richard isn't going to follow in his dad's footsteps and Kerry isn't mad and he's like Marissa always supported me. So now everyone knows. And everyone is fighting. While that's happening, Alicia and Kyle are also fighting because she thinks he's cheating on her with a girl who is texting him. Turns out, it's just his therapist checking up on him because he apparently has yet to tell his wife that he has ED. And now the entire family knows. It's a mess.Ultimately, Richard scrams, the sisters make up, Kerry quits her job because she doesn't want her family to sell the church that brings them so much joy, Alicia and Kyle make up, and everyone has a merry Christmas.

Any takeaways from this episode?Dearest, gentle listeners… our Bridgerton series is back, and today we are talking Bridgerton Couples.  We're starting with Chaotic Edition (Healthy Edition drops next week).Today we're breaking down the couples who brought:

A fresh 2026, book to screen Rom Com, based on the novel by Emily Henry, starring Emily Bader and Tom Blyth (YES, President Snow, but as a brunette). This little snack features a couple that lies to themselves for years that they're not in love, while they date and almost marry other people because they're too stubborn to admit that they like each other. Not gonna lie, sometimes things can be good for just the DRAMA of it all. And this is DRAMA. 

In this episode, the hosts dive into their favorite and least favorite romantic comedies, from elite enemies-to-lovers arcs to friends-to-lovers that absolutely should have stayed friends. They break down the rom-com tropes that still make them swoon—and the ones that should be permanently retired. With hot takes, nostalgia, and a little cinematic judgment, they revisit the films that shaped their expectations of love (for better or worse). Some classics get their flowers. Others… should have never been made.Follow & stay connected:IG: @thanks4urconcern @berenicediazm @ellaltudorTikTok: @thanks4yourconcern @ellaltudorYouTube: https://youtube.com/@thanksforyourconcernpod

Tubi may not have the same name recognition as Netflix or Hulu, but the streamer continues to offer original content, with several recent programs targeting younger viewers. That's the case with "Kissing Is the Easy Part," an adaptation of a romance novel by Christine Duann. The film stars Paris Berelc and Asher Angel, who both chat with co-host Bruce Miller about the film. Before that, Miller and co-host Terry Lipshetz chat about the Winter Olympics, which are in full swing, as well as their interactions with Olympians over the years. Miller also talks about the new miniseries "Love Story," the FX/Hulu program from Ryan Murphy that looks at the relationship between John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. And finally, Lipshetz not only names off all of the "Bridgerton" characters A through H, but offers his thoughts on the latest season, which recently dropped the first half of season 4 on Netflix with the second half to come at the end of February. This season takes a Cinderella story approach with Benedict and his love interest. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

It's Tuesday which means it's time for a new Hallmark movie review!ABOUT BECAUSE OF CUPIDFollows Naomi and Marcus, best friends and bartenders in Buffalo, New York, who enter a Valentine's Day mocktail contest to kickstart their dream business. After unknowingly adding a real love potion to their mocktail, they win the competition but spark chaos when judges-and Marcus-fall under its spell. As media attention grows, they race to find an antidote, questioning whether their own feelings are real. Ultimately, they discover their love is genuine, secure a career-making deal, and realize that the true magic was between them all along.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR BECAUSE OF CUPIDFebruary 14, 2026 | HallmarkCAST & CREW OF BECAUSE OF CUPIDAmy Groening as NaomiEvan Roderick as MarcusAdam Tsekhman as HalBRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSISMeet Naomi and Marcus - best friends and co-workers. They're working at this bar but the owner is getting ready to sell it. Naomi and Marcus really don't want it to. Naomi has a plan to save it - mocktails. One day, EJ Cortland comes in. He's a famous romantasy author but no one knows that he's a he. The owner is a big fan and they get to talking. They're hitting it off until suddenly they're not. We find out that Marcus is very cynical about love. But when Naomi walks away, he opens up to this guy about being in love with her. This guy turns out to be a tea boy. Naomi really wants to work tea into a mocktail so he invites them to come to a tasting. When they go to the tasting, the dude gives Marcus a vial of tea that he says will make someone fall in love. Marcus is like wtf. Dude is like it's like how ginger soothes the tummy. Fair enough, guy.There's this mocktail competition coming up that Marcus' rich uncle gets him and Naomi into.She decides to make a little something something that night and includes the cupid juice, which she doesn't know about. She gives the drink to a ton of people, including Marcus. When Marcus gets on stage and sings a love song to Naomi. He figures out what happens - he insists to Naomi that he was already in love with her. But they gotta go check on everyone else that got some of the drink. And they are WILDDDDLY in love.They go and they find the Cupid guy, "Hal". He is disappointed to find out that she didn't drink it, but he does give them the recipe to the antidote.It takes some time but they're able to figure out what the actual recipe. But they do, and they start giving it to everyone that drank the drink. Some of them fall right out of love, but some of them (who were really in love beforehand) stay in love.Naomi is really liking this new Marcus. She really doesn't want him to take the antidote. He is like I promise I've loved you.It's time for the competition AND THEY WIN!!!Speaking of winning, Marcus' uncle gets married - potion or no potion, my guy is in love. At the reception, Cupid is there and gives Marcus the antidote. It turns out....he wasn't under the spell of the potion at all. It takes two to tango.Naomi realizes she's in love with him too and sings him a love song too. He tells her that he hasn't been under a spell this entire time.And the good news keeps coming....their boss is basically giving them the bar. YAY! They celebrate by dancing and kissing.

How was our Valentine's Day, why did Rom-Coms use to be better, Cameron's grade school girlfriends, and we read your stories from Reddit!

Not every rom-com love story was built on fantasy.In this Valentine's Day special episode of KDTime, we're flipping the narrative and celebrating the couples who actually had what it takes to last. These are the relationships built on communication, friendship, growth, and choosing each other beyond the final scene.From slow-burn love stories and friends-to-lovers arcs to couples who learned how to grow together instead of apart — we're breaking down why these romances worked and why they'd still be standing long after the credits rolled.Because real love isn't perfect — it's intentional.And sometimes… rom-coms got it right.Am I wrong?

Aloha! This week, we're jetting off to Hawaii to revisit 2004's 50 First Dates, where Drew Barrymore shines as the lovable and forgetful Lucy Whitmore alongside her cinematic soulmate Adam Sandler. We're swooning over their unbeatable chemistry, reliving the laugh-out-loud moments, gushing over Drew's beauty, and jamming out to the film's island style 80s covers. Two decades later, this sweet, silly, and sincerely romantic classic still makes us fall for Drew and Adam all over again.Visit us on the web:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@howdoyoudrewpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠howdoyoudrew.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@drewseum⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thedrewseum.com⁠⁠

"Dawns are heartbreaking," as is the queer love story of Arthur Rimbaud & Paul Verlaine.Please Support Breaking Form!Review the show on Apple Podcasts here.Aaron's STOP LYING is available from the Pitt Poetry Series. And BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE is available from Bridwell Press. James's ROMANTIC COMEDY is available from Four Way Books.Show Notes:Paul Verlaine was born in 1844. Read more about him here. Verlaine was an Aries sun, Leo Moon, and Scorpio ascendant.Arthur Rimbaud was born on October 20, 1854, and you can read more about him here. Rimbaud was a triple Libra (sun, moon, ascendant). Rimbaud met Verlaine in September 1871, a month before his 18th birthday. Following his tumultuous relationship with Paul Verlaine, which ended in 1873, Rimbaud traveled extensively through Europe, often on foot. He became a trader/merchant, selling coffee, hides, and eventually guns, becoming a "soldier of fortune." In 1891, a tumor developed on his right knee and forced him to return to Paris and died later that year at 37, without knowing how popular his poems had become in Symbolist circles.  The gun Verlaine used to shoot Rimbaud recently went up for auction.One of the poems Rimbaud sent to Verlaine in 1871 was "Le Dormer du Val," which you can watch recited as part of the Favorite Poem Project here. (Recited by chef Jacques Pépin.) Rimbaud and Verlaine wrote a collaborative poem, "Sonnet to the Asshole" which you can read (and read about) here.  In 2016, the poet Eileen Myles told The New York Times, "I think men should stop writing books. I think men should stop making movies or television. Say, for 50 to 100 years. Sounds great." Read the interview here.When we reference "tongue in the butt," we are talking about a segment from an early Breaking Form season 1 show called "Bad Animals." Check it out here, and hit the 14:30 mark. If you've never read Flannery O'Connor's short story "A Good Man Is Hard to Find," stop what you're doing and read it here.
